Chapter 195: Chapter 195, The Death of the Third Prince
The Third Prince looked at the warriors falling to the ground. He was shocked. The scene in front of him was not magnificent, it was bloody and cruel. Wherever the death warrior went, they destroyed everything and tore open a bloody path. The soldiers who were protecting the Third Prince were instantly defeated. Fortunately, the experts on the third prince’s side were very strong. They ruthlessly reaped the lives of the enemies around them.
They had to ensure the safety of this heir. The underlings quickly took control of the main road to avoid an effective counterattack organized by the Third Prince and to prevent the target from escaping. Although He Chuan was with Lia, he always paid attention to the assassination.
Of course, he didn’t want to save them. He wanted to see if there was any information about gods and demons among them.
The black-robed man saw things were not going well, so he mustered all his courage and rushed out with the Third Prince.
How could the leader of the underlings allow his target to escape and stop him personally? The black-robed expert suddenly felt as if a powerful killing intent surrounded him. It was as if the air around him had been sucked dry, making him feel suffocated. The leader of the underlings took advantage of the black-robed expert’s uneasiness and used his spear like a stick, smashing it toward the other party’s head. The long spear turned into a crescent moon in the air, showing the incredible power of the blow. There was no way to avoid it, so he could only fight to the death! Otherwise, he and the Third Prince would not be able to leave this place.
The black-robed expert took a deep breath and used all his strength to block the leader of the underlings’ attack. Clang! The deafening sound of metal clashing against metal rang out in the air, causing the eardrums of the surrounding people to vibrate. The black-robed expert felt his arms go numb as a tremendous force poured into his body from his arms. His internal organs suffered a powerful impact, and the blood in his chest churned… The leader of the men of sacrifice pulled back his long spear, and the bodyguards of the Third Prince surrounded him. He growled, and the long spear in his hand pierced through the chest of a bodyguard like a silver meteor in the blink of an eye. Then, the long spear lifted the corpse and smashed it towards the bodyguards rushing towards him. The moral of the dead warrior soared when they saw their leader’s bravery. “Demonic Blade!” The black-robed expert was not to be trifled with.
From top to bottom, the huge black sword light was indestructible! Like a flood under a broken dam, the leader of the death warrior swept forward with the power to collapse mountains and crack rocks.
The leader of the death warrior did not dare to take it head-on and hurriedly dodged.
However, the death warrior behind him didn’t manage to dodge in time, and the black sword light took their lives. Everyone was intimidated by his aura, and the surrounding area became a vacuum. The Third Prince’s face was stained with blood, and his stomach was churning when he smelled it.
“Everyone, attack together! Directly kill the target!” The leader of the death warriors stopped being arrogant and ordered everyone to attack together.
If the target escaped today, they would all be buried with him! The two hidden masters instantly leaped down like swallows and quickly flew toward the Third Prince. In the blink of an eye, they arrived before the other party. The Third Prince did not even have the time to shout before two sword lights went straight for his neck and chest. The momentum was rapid and extremely fast. “Cough cough, protect the King!”
The Third Prince clutched his bleeding wound and fell to the ground. He was not going to survive. The sudden assassination frightened the bodyguards behind him, and they hurriedly drew their bows and shot arrows. Unfortunately, the two hidden experts were highly skilled. After blocking the arrows, they disappeared into the dense forest. “Quickly find a doctor!” The guard captain in charge of keeping watch was covered in a cold sweat. Once the Third Prince was dead, they would all be buried with him. “Retreat!” Seeing that the mission had been completed, the leader of the underlings retreated in an orderly manner.
The entire hunting ground was in chaos.
…
Deep in the forest
“You’ll be in charge of roping in the Third Prince’s forces when you go back. You can help to recommend talented people. We won’t treat you badly!” One of the two assassins who tried to assassinate the Third Prince was actually the Third Prince’s subordinate.
I’m afraid no one would have expected this.
“Your subordinate thanks your excellency for your help. I will definitely not disappoint the First Prince!”
At the same time, a man in black also appeared on the Eldest Princess’s side. The man in black moved quickly. In one step, he was only five feet away from the Eldest Princess and shouted, “Die!” The expert beside the Eldest Princess hurriedly pulled out his sword to block it. Suddenly, his eyes blurred and he lost track of the black-clothed man. The man in black carried a gust of wind as he stepped lightly on the newly sprouted grass. The air around him surged, and the strong wind swept up the soil on the ground. The sword light danced and whistled in the sky. Spurt! The heart of the man in black was pierced through by the Eldest Princess. He fell to the ground with unwillingness in his eyes.
The Eldest Princess was suspicious. The other party wasn’t here to assassinate her, but to kill her on purpose.
What is going on?
The ministers and Tetumtan who were hunting were all at a loss when they suddenly received the news that the third Prince had been assassinated. Before they could come to their senses, Tetumtan had sent someone to search for the soldiers and found the Eldest Princess’s standard weapon on the assassin. the ministers were no longer calm.
This was the inheritors starting to kill each other.
The ministers who had witnessed this bloody case were constantly having a battle in their hearts. “This subject is willing to swear fealty to the King!” Someone had to take the lead. Seeing that things were not going well, a minister took the lead and shouted. The other ministers also followed suit and pledged their loyalty. Those ministers who were not determined followed suit. It was fine to secretly participate in the struggle for the successors, but now that a life had been lost, it was better to draw a clear line first. Tetumtan clenched his fists so hard that his palms were bleeding from the nails. He was not dead yet.
In the past, this group of children was just fighting for power with each other. He turned a blind eye and let it pass.
This was because everything had been carried out with his tacit approval.
But today’s premeditated assassination had already crossed his bottom line. What if the assassins today came to assassinate him?
If that happened, the Xiongnu people would have to go through a long period of internal strife, and they would not have the energy to attack the Great Zhou Dynasty. “Investigate, investigate thoroughly! Call back those unfilial sons for this King!” Not long after, the princes and princesses came to Tetumtan, each with their own thoughts.
“All of you are my children, but what someone did today really made me angry. Lina, what do you have to say?” Tetumtan ordered the soldiers to show the evidence.
In addition, when the soldiers went to find the Eldest Princess, they happened to find the body of a man in black.
“Father is wise. If I wanted to assassinate my Royal Brother, I wouldn’t have left such clear evidence. Someone must have framed me!” The Eldest Princess quickly explained.
She had now figured out why the man in black was so easily killed. It was to frame her.
“Hehe, so you’re saying that you once had an idea?” Tetumtan sneered and asked. Of course, he knew that the Eldest Princess was not so stupid.
He could even narrow down the scope to his children, but he had already lost a son. Could he lose another child?
There was bound to be no follow-up to this matter, but he had to find out who was behind this.
