GBP Chapter 151: End of the War
Chapter 151: End of the War
Master is right, it is indeed a tough battle.
The three swords behind him were all cut, and there was still an endless stream of men in black, who, under the occasional lightning in the sky, rushed towards the surrounded carriage without caring about their lives.
How rich must the senior sister be? Is this the ancestor of robbers? Why are there so many people here?
The eerie sound of swords clashing and the muffled sound of cold weapons piercing bodies were all drowned out by the rumbling thunder.
Inside the carriage, King Cheng held down the impetuous young Xiao Zhengdu with one hand, not allowing him to show his head.
Yuxiang Pass is located in a narrow passage between two mountains, and mud splashes under the horses' hooves.
The rain and mud mixed with blood looked neither dirty nor warm in the darkness.
The ponytailed girl was almost invisible as she fought in the crowd.
Mo Jingchun was inside the carriage, looking up through the roof until the blood seeped into it. He knew that the man was still standing there.
Leaving the corpses scattered all over the ground, the girl who was firmly guarding the carriage turned her head and looked provocatively at the figures on the mountaintops on both sides who had not yet landed.
Wave after wave of assassinations failed, and King Cheng's carriage was about to run out of the narrow mountain road. If he missed this great opportunity and returned to the capital, it would be difficult to take action.
"Where did King Cheng get her help? I've never heard of such a person around her! What do you do for a living?"
No one dared to answer in the dark night. The masked man who led the assassination said angrily,
“We cannot let King Cheng leave Yuxiang Pass at any cost! Attack! If our action fails and our master becomes furious, neither you nor I will survive!”
Satisfied to see the figures coming down one by one, the girl who was treated as a dwarf occasionally had doubts in her heart but was quickly ignored.
These people are well-trained, they don't look like robbers.
However, the people around my senior sister don’t seem like ordinary guards. Their moves look new and interesting. How about finding a chance to spar with them?
The indecisive girl was very excited about the last wave of attacks because she found that the leader was unusual.
He must be the strongest among this group of bandits.
The master said that if you cannot apply the learned moves to actual combat, then they are no different from fancy moves.
She felt that the master was right.
There was no one on Yunwu Mountain for her to practice with, so this was a great opportunity.
The girl looked into the eyes of the masked man, and she thought, this trip was really not in vain.
The knife her master gave her had a curled edge and the sword was broken in half. She only looked at the leader.
The rest will be enough for Senior Sister’s guards.
Anyway, this was the last wave and they couldn't launch another attack.
The broken sword collided with the broadsword, and the man was protected and fell on the top of the carriage. The girl immediately launched an offensive, attacking his legs directly.
The man risked having his legs chopped off by her in order to break the well-defended carriage, and chopped at the ground below with his sword.
Xiao Zhengdu also realized the battle situation on the top of the carriage. Since there was blood on it, it showed that the defense had been exposed.
If someone with great internal strength launches a desperate attack and the carriage is broken, the imperial sister will be in danger.
He knew it, and the girl in the carriage naturally knew it too.
She put away her sword, lowered her body, and grasped the back of the man's sword with one hand.
The sharp blade was just a hair's breadth away from hitting the top of the carriage, but it could no longer be pushed down.
The white little hand on the back of the knife actually contains incomparable strength.
When the man was about to draw his knife, she clenched her fingers, and the blade shattered into pieces with a powerful force.
The man felt his hands go empty, and then her leg swept his feet across, and he fell backwards uncontrollably.
After all, he reacted in time. He hooked his feet on the wooden edge of the carriage and hung upside down on the side of the speeding carriage.
There were horses galloping down my head, and if I wasn't careful, my brain would burst apart.
But he had no time to care about it. Although the window edge of the carriage was tightly sealed,...
It is also a vulnerable point.
He used up his last bit of strength and slapped down with all his strength. Along the imprint of his palm, a finger-long crack appeared.
The light from the carriage leaked through the gap, and from this position, he could just see King Cheng sitting calmly in the carriage.
It was as if the life and death outside the carriage had nothing to do with her, and she remained unmoved even when facing danger.
But the next moment, a sword blade stretched out from the gap and stabbed at him.
The man was stabbed, leaving a long bloody wound from his arm to his face.
Because he was hanging upside down, blood spilled into his eyes, making his vision blurry.
The girl was also a little surprised by the sudden sword blade. It was obviously not her senior sister who did it, but the man in the carriage.
She stood up and looked ahead of the carriage. The end of Yuxiang Pass was right in front of her, and the land outside the pass was wide and open, with a panoramic view.
I guess there won’t be any danger.
Master said that it would be fine after we passed Yuxiang Pass.
The girl turned around and looked back at the dark and narrow road, where she and her guards hacked the bandits to death but they were still alive, struggling to get up and catch up with the carriage.
This group of people will never stop fighting until one dies.
It seems that for the safety of her senior sister, it is necessary for her to cut off the retreat.
So she kicked the upside-down man, pinched his body and jumped off the carriage together.
Everything happened in just a moment. Xiao Zhengdu suddenly felt the top of the carriage lighten, and the assassin he stabbed also fell down.
He moved his body over the finger-wide gap and looked out.
In the darkness, he could only see a very blurry silhouette, but before he could take a closer look, the carriage had already left him far behind and he could see everything.
The guard whispered to King Cheng, "Your Highness, we have left Yuxiang Pass."
"it is good."
Xiao Zhengdu sat back to relax his tense body, exhaled and asked,
"Will that person... die?"
Outside the safe and spacious Yuxiang Pass, another group of guards arrived without knowing when. King Cheng leaned back with his straightened back.
In the swinging candlelight of the carriage, he smiled and said, "No."
"That's good."
Xiao Zhengdu felt relieved for some reason. He really wanted to know the identity of that person.
But after thinking about it carefully, it must be a master who has been hiding for a long time beside the emperor sister, or a secret guard trained in private.
Since the imperial sister hadn't spoken a word, he'd better be smart and not ask.
King Zheng has capable people under his command. As a king who can survive the palace struggle, is he as simple as he seems?
There are some things that even as a younger brother, he cannot say too much.
He was just picked up and raised by King Cheng, and he was not as good as her brother Xiao Zhengze, who was born from the same mother.
That sickly young boy was not allowed to leave the palace and could not stay with the imperial sister like he did, so the emperor always disliked him and felt that he stole the imperial sister's attention.
The most ruthless thing that the prince who grew up in the palace and was protected had ever encountered was the conspiracy and intrigue of the harem.
How could we know how many life-and-death situations Xiao Zhengdu and his sister had experienced?
On the flat road, the carriage carrying the future king rushed towards the imperial battlefield.
Behind the carriage, inside Yuxiang Pass,
The girl was the only one enduring the wind and rain from the mountains on both sides.
