Chapter 219

Duan Ren knew that he wouldn’t be the main character to reverse the situation today.

However, he also knew that if he did not firmly stand on the side of the original choice, he might not be able to achieve anything in the end.

That was why he had desperately tried to kill her, desperately trying to make Mu Changyan remember him on such a crucial day.

He wanted Mu Changyan to see who was more loyal and outstanding compared to the youth called An Zaiyue.

This thought did not change until he was surrounded.

Hundreds of imperial bodyguards fell down, leaving him alone to fight.

When he woke up from his bloodshot state, he realized that he didn’t have a single companion by his side anymore.

With a “”pu”” sound, he was stabbed in the back. The pain stung his nerves.

He turned around and hacked the assassin who had injured him to death, just in time to see what was happening at the East Warming Pavilion.

During the battle, he didn’t notice that the Heaven and the Temple were already gone.

At this moment, only the East Spring Pavilion remained standing there, while King Yan, Mu Changyan, stood there alone.

For the first time he had doubts about his choice, and for the first time about his faith.

If Duke Yan was truly the future of Great Yan, if he was really the incarnation of a god, why would he be in such a predicament?

Looking at the assassins who were still rushing over like a tide, he felt a chill in his heart. Very quickly, this cold spread all over his body, and he could not even feel the pain from the injuries on his back.

Then, he turned around and quickly rushed out of Heavenly Temple.

I want to live!

This was Duan Ren’s last belief. At this moment, he forgot about loyalty and courage. All he wanted was to live.

It wasn’t wrong, but in this social environment, someone would think he was wrong.

Duan Ren did not think about the outcome of his escape. He did not have the time to think about those things.

He did not see Mu Changyan’s sword move. If he did, he would probably choose to wait and watch for a while longer.

Mu Changyan had experienced the biggest ups and downs within a second … The power of that strike had exceeded his imagination.

He knew that his current cultivation level was not strong, and it was even far inferior to when he was in the Cang Man Mountain’s illusory city.

As such, he was already pleasantly surprised that the attack he had unleashed could kill the last two Assassins in one go.

However, that soft sound caused his pleasant surprise to abruptly drop to the ground.

The wine flag cracked.

Gao Yuan looked at the two corpses falling down from the lake, his face ashen.

The Gao Family was finished.

His legs went weak and he knelt down involuntarily.

No one knew better than he that all the power the Gao Family could muster had been used.

Because no one knew better than he that all the people who came to Empyrean Terminus Palace to assassinate the Yan Emperor were all abandoned sons of the Gao Family.

Gao Yuan knew that he had been abandoned. While they were crazily attacking the Heavenly Temple’s East Warm Pavilion, the old madame of the Gao Family had already moved out of Fang Gucheng with the Gao Family’s absolute core and secret.

The Gao Clan’s final counterattack seemed to be a pretense.

It would be best if he could kill Mu Changyan. If he couldn’t kill Mu Changyan, he could also conceal the fact that the Gao Family had retreated.

When no one else appeared, Mu Changyan’s heart lightened up involuntarily.

He had finally survived it … At this moment, if someone came to kill him, he might end the history of the Mu Clan’s Great Yan.

He looked back and did not see An Chengli.

An Chengli said he would stand with him for sure, but now he wasn’t there.

However, Mu Changyan didn’t blame An Chengli, because he knew how difficult it was to make a decision in the face of death.

Fortunately, it was all over.

The Gao Family’s counterattack had reached its limit, and it wouldn’t be long before those people from the imperial court had no choice but to step in.

At that moment, two people wearing black clothes and a black scarf walked over from the distance.

Even if he couldn’t see their faces, Mu Changyan could see the pride in their eyes.

As the man in black passed by the kneeling Gao Yuan Lake, he turned his head to look at Gao Yuan, his eyes full of disdain. “”You gave up so quickly?””

It seems that you aren’t as powerful as the rumors say.

“”Although you did scare me in terms of cultivation level, in terms of mental state, you are not as strong as I expected.””

Gao Yuan looked at the two people blankly with doubt in his heart.

Because he knew very well that these two people definitely weren’t from the Gao Family. They were only pretending to be members of the Gao Family … and then he suddenly woke up. These two guys were from the empress dowager’s side.

From the tone of his voice and the tone of his voice, he could tell that the man was Zhao Zishan.

The empress dowager had sent people, but she still couldn’t hold it in.

Lu Tianghui and Zhao Shanshan were the two favorite martial artists of the empress dowager.

All these years, they had done many things for the empress dowager in secret. The Gao Family had sent people to investigate the background of these two people.

Logically speaking, it was impossible for these two people to be nameless in Yan Kingdom’s martial arts world.

Later on, the Gao Clan discovered that the reason these two people didn’t have any past history was because they weren’t from the Yan Country at all, but were from the State of Zhao.

Zhao Zishan walked over to the side of the lake, a dagger in his hand, “”I’ve given this last name to the Gao Family for free. There’s no need to thank them, there’s no need to stand on ceremony.””

He walked to the crumbling East Warm Pavilion and looked at the broken wine flag, then looked at the pale-faced Mu Changyan, “”This wine flag really scares me. So the King actually had such a treasure. Fortunately, we were able to hold our breath.””

Even though I personally don’t have any hatred towards you, I still feel that you are rather pitiful.

However, I still have an urge to … kill a king. Even if it is a puppet that doesn’t live up to its name, it is still a king.

“”Think of it, the death of a king in my hands is exciting.””

He turned his head to look at Lu Tianhui: “”Don’t compete with me, okay?””

Lu Tiexi shrugged his shoulders: “”I’m not interested in living people.””

Zhao Zishan laughed, “”You’re still so disgusting, but you have to remember, it’s fine if you’re just playing around.””

“”After this person dies, he has to keep a decent corpse for others to see. At the very least, he has to be recognized as the King of Swallow.””

Lu Tianhui said, “”I’m not interested in the corpses of men.””

Zhao Zishan laughed out loud and said, “”Then I won’t be polite.””

He seemed very excited, and his eyes could not hide the excitement in them.

Behind the two of them, there were at least six or seven hundred Gao Family assassins surrounding them.

They didn’t know that Zhao Shanshan and Lu Tianhui weren’t from the Gao Family. They just felt that they were about to succeed.

The imperial bodyguards had all been killed and they would be able to leave this damned place immediately.

Zhao Zishan turned around and glanced at the assassins, who were covering their faces. He stretched out his left hand, and a powerful force in the State of Captivity bound Mu Changyan.

Mu Changyan felt that he was truly lamentable. He couldn’t even commit suicide at the last moment.

The power of the scabbard had been fully exerted, and could not be used again in a short period of time.

The wine flag had already split open, and even if there were any remnants of the sword intent inside, it had already leaked out.

The only dignity he had was suicide.

However, it was obvious that Zhao Zishan did not intend to give him such an opportunity.

Zhao Zishan remained silent for a while, then suddenly stretched out his hand to pull the black scarf off his face, then he shook his neck and said, “”How f * cking comfortable. Killing a king! I can’t believe I couldn’t show my face while I was killing him! This is too f * cking painful!””

“”My King of Great Yan, please look at my face clearly. Please remember my face before you die. I beg you, after you die, you must come find me. Otherwise, I’m afraid that I will forget that I once killed the king of a country.””

He pointed at the dazed assassins behind him. “”They are destined to be cannon fodder for history.””

Even if they were to participate in this major event that attempted to assassinate you, it would only be a matter of time before mentioning them in the future.

I’m not the same. I’m going to be a big stroke in history. “”

His dagger pierced through Mu Changyan’s clothes, piercing her skin bit by bit. The surroundings were so quiet that one could almost hear the sound of a knife slicing through flesh.

In less than a centimeter, the knife would cut through the heart.

Then, Zhao Zishan found that something seemed to be wrong with his hand. The back of his hand was suddenly covered in black spots.

He had been staring intently at his right hand, trying to remember this moment.

Therefore, he noticed this change on the back of his hand in time.

Then he noticed that the black spots on the back of his hand were beginning to change, moving back and forth as if they were alive.

Zhao Zishan was stunned. He took a closer look.

The black spots were moving back and forth, but she didn’t feel anything.

If he hadn’t seen it, he wouldn’t have noticed it at all.

Then one of the dots suddenly stopped, and then it caved in and a small black hole appeared on the back of his hand.

It wasn’t an illusion, but a hole had really appeared.

Under his somewhat terrified gaze, a small sapling suddenly crawled out from the black hole!

It was very small, just like bean sprouts.

However, the bean sprouts were red in color, giving off the feeling of a rubber band.

By the time the first bean sprout emerged from the black hole, the rest of the matter was unstoppable.

More and more black spots turned into small holes, and bean sprouts came out from the holes one by one, twisting and growing up.

Zhao Zishan wanted to kill Mu Changyan, but the moment the black dot appeared, he had already lost control of his body.

His clothes fell down to the ground like rotten leaves.

Then, his eyes widened as his pupils contracted violently.

There were small holes all over his body, and every small hole had a bean sprout that twisted its way out.

The dense mass made people feel as if countless meat-worms were twisting.

It was his blood vessel.

Countless holes appeared on his body, and blood vessels began to burrow out of the holes like bean sprouts.

Within a short period of time, Zhao Shanshan had turned into a man whose entire body was filled with bean sprouts.

He subconsciously turned his head to ask Lu Tiexi to save him. When he turned his head back, he saw that Lu Tiexi was already on the ground twisting and turning.

However, that was not because Lu Tiexi was twisting or twisting. The clothes on his body were also rotting. It was all because of the blood vessels that were still drilling out.

Zhao Zishan was so scared that his heart almost broke out of his chest. He opened his mouth, wanting to shout out loud.

But when he opened his mouth, a big bean sprout of blood gushed out of it.

His mouth was so big that it looked as if a strange cauliflower had grown out of it.

An old man wearing a brocade robe walked over with a haggard expression. He walked in front of Mu Changyan and bowed, “”Your subject is too late. I’m getting old so I won’t be walking too fast.””

Mu Changyan looked at the old man, but she still couldn’t wake up from her fear.

He was not afraid of dying just now, but afraid of what he saw.

Lu Tiexi and Zhao Shanshan had become like that. This could be the shadow of his life.

“”Thank … thank you.””

Mu Changyan said subconsciously, but didn’t know what to say next.

The old man straightened his body and looked outside Extreme Heaven Palace. “”The sky is about to brighten.””

He turned his back to Mu Changyan and looked outside Extreme Heaven Palace, “”Next, this official Zhuge Liuyun will accompany the King and wait for the sun to rise.””
