Xu Buling held the three-foot-long sword and turned into a white thunderbolt. He rushed to the thirty-foot high platform and pointed his sword at Song Ji.
"How dare you!"
"Protect the Emperor!"
Cries of surprise rose.
Below the platform, dozens of secret guards immediately took action. They drew their weapons and charged at the audacious Xu Buling.
In an instant, the sound of clothes and weapons slicing through the air could be heard. Dozens of figures flew up, almost blocking the scorching sun in the sky.
The officials, nobles, and nobles were in a mess. Many people were so scared that they fell to the ground. The Three Ministers and Nine Ministers, who still had some rationality, hurriedly shouted, "Keep him alive."
But in the next moment, everyone was astonished.
Under the River Viewing Platform, the sword qi soared into the sky. A white shadow, like a powerful dragon entering the sea, rushed through the dozens of secret guardians as if there was no one else around.
Rustle, rustle, rustle …
The blade danced rapidly, and blood and severed limbs flew everywhere before falling on the stone bricks like raindrops.
Wherever the sword light passed, there was not a single complete corpse that fell from the sky.
Even when he reached the platform, Xu Buling's white clothes were still not stained with blood.
"This …"
Tang Jiao, who stood on the platform, was shocked. He looked at the young man whose clothes were not stained with blood. He suddenly remembered Zhu Tiushan, the Sword Saint who used his sword to suppress his generation in Jianghu. No! Even Zhu Silk Mountain hadn't been this ruthless back then.
He was not human!
"Guards!"
"Protect the Emperor!"
"Ah —"
Amidst the chaos and screams, the secret guards advanced and retreated.
The Nine Segments Goddess did not dare to charge forward with the whip in her hand. Instead, she raised her head and angrily rebuked,
Instead, she raised her head and shouted, "Protect the Emperor … Where is Eunuch Jia?! He's going all out. Stop him … "
"Come on!"
Xu Buling held his sword and killed more than ten people, but his clothes were not stained with blood. Under the effect of the Dragon Lock Parasite, his forehead and arms turned purple. His blood vessels bulged like earthworms, and his eyes were like ghosts from hell.
"Who can stop me!"
"Stop him!"
"Hurry!"
The civil and military officials sitting around them, those who knew some martial arts, hurriedly pounced forward, but they didn't dare to go forward.
On the platform, Death Soldier B and C stood in front of the emperor with cold eyes.
"Ah —"
Xu Buring stomped his feet on the ground and leaped to the center of the platform. He raised his hand and clawed into the wall of the platform, using the force to pull his body up and onto the railing of the River-Viewing Platform.
"Protect the Emperor!"
"Ah —"
Screams were heard everywhere.
At the same time, Old Second unsheathed two of the three sabers on his back, and his tall figure rushed out like a battering ram. He directly broke through the fence, and the gleaming blades were like silver threads, crisscrossing towards Xu Buring, who had just rushed up the fence.
Ding ding ding ding —
Dozens of sparks bloomed on the platform in an instant.
The people below couldn't see the movement at all. They only saw that one of Old Second's sabers broke, and the one on his back hadn't even been unsheathed when a bloody wound appeared on his chest. His whole body fell from the high platform!
"—"
The noise could no longer be distinguished.
Many Wolf Guards climbed up the platform and were stunned. They did not expect Old B, whose martial arts skills were second only to Eunuch Jia, to fall so quickly.
Unfortunately, the situation did not allow people to think.
The third death soldier held a black spear and followed closely behind the second death soldier as he charged toward Xu Buring.
Xu Buling had been forced to the edge of the platform by Old B. Death Soldier C's spear was like a swimming dragon. He stabbed twelve times in an instant and forced Xu Buling to take a step back. This step was in the air.
"Ah —"
Death Soldier C took this opportunity and smashed his spear at Xu Buling, trying to smash Xu Buling off the platform.
Bang —
The spear was smashed out but was caught by Xu Buling with one hand.
Xu Buling's feet were in the air and he fell naturally. Coupled with the force of the spear, he was smashed off the platform.
But before going down, Xu Buling did not let go of the spear. Instead, he pulled hard and forcefully pulled Death Soldier C down from the edge of the platform.
Death Soldier C reacted quickly and immediately abandoned his spear. He punched at Xu Buling's chest.
But no one expected that Xu Buling had really gone crazy. He was so crazy that he was not afraid of death.
Death Soldier C's two punches landed on his chest. Xu Buling did not dodge. He did not care about Death Soldier C in front of him and threw the sword in his hand.
Swish —
The sharp sound of the sword resonated.
The meter-long sharp sword shot out like a crossbow. With a terrifying whistling sound, it arrived in front of Song Ji, who was watching coldly from the side.
Hua Jingting, Mei Qusheng, and the others who had just rushed to the high platform to rescue the emperor were horrified. They rushed forward to block the sword, but it was too late.
Cha —
The sword flashed and blood splattered five steps away!
Everyone froze.
The huge River Gazing Platform was instantly silent, as if the whole world had frozen at this moment.
The blood-stained sword was nailed to the cornice of the platform. A few drops of blood dripped from the blade and onto the floor.
Emperor Dai Yue, who was wearing a dragon robe, looked down at the bloody hole in his heart. His eyes were dazed. Then, the blood entered his lungs. He coughed out a mouthful of blood and fell backward.
Thump —
The soft thud on the ground wasn't loud, but it startled everyone.
"Your Majesty!"
"Your Majesty!!"
"Ah —"
Wails and screams filled the air as countless Wolf Guards and Royal Guards rushed towards the high platform in a frenzy.
The officials froze on the spot. Their bodies trembled and they could not react to the current situation.
Eunuch Jia ran out from a nearby house and shouted angrily, "How dare you!" However, it was too late. After he jumped onto the stage, he carried Song Ji, who was coughing up blood non-stop, and rushed to where the Imperial Physician was.
Unfortunately, the sword pierced through his heart!
Everyone looked at the blood-stained sword stuck in the cornice and slowly fell to the ground. They gradually reacted to the current situation.
Regicide!
The Xu family killed the Emperor!
Xu Buling dared to kill the Emperor in front of everyone!
What a heinous crime!
Thump —
Another muffled sound was heard as he fell to the ground.
Below the platform, Xu Buling, who was wearing a white robe that was not stained with blood, was finally exhausted. He coughed out a mouthful of black blood and fell to the ground. His face was twisted and livid, but he let out a ghostly laughter.
"Hahahaha …"
His laughter was shrill and crazy. It was mixed with bloody coughs, which made people shudder.
Many Courtiers were stunned. They stood still and did not know what to do.
One of the Three Ducal Officials, Liu Pingyang, was the first to react. He rushed to the fence and shouted angrily,
"Someone, take down this traitor!"
Many Wolf Guards and Imperial Guards turned pale. They rushed to Xu Buling, who had just committed regicide, and surrounded him.
Xiao Chuyang seemed to react at this time. He pushed Liu Pingyang away with a furious face and said angrily,
"How dare you, traitor! Kill without mercy!"
The Wolf Guards immediately rushed forward with their swords and chopped this regicide into minced meat.
Grand Commandant Liu Pingyang was stunned for a moment. Then, a look of terror appeared on his face.
"You can't kill him, you can't kill him!"
Imperial Censor Cui Huailu was also anxious. He quickly raised his hand and scolded,
"Don't kill him! You can't kill him! "
The Wolf Guards stopped again. They held their swords and did not know what to do.
The Three Ducal Officials and Nine Ministers did not have the same opinion. Naturally, they did not dare to kill Su Of Gojoseon's son.
Seeing this, Xiao Chuyang was furious. He raised his hand and slapped them in the face. He asked angrily, "
"Deceiving the Emperor and committing regicide. Why can't you be killed? Do you want to rebel as well?! "
Liu Pingyang was slapped, but he did not dare to fight back. He said anxiously,
"We can't kill him. Once we kill Su Of Gojoseon, he will rebel. Chang 'an will be finished!"
Cui Huailu was also anxious. He said,
"Su Of Gojoseon is training in Qinzhou. If he learns that his son is dead, he will rebel. Once the war starts, the world will be in chaos! We can't kill him! "
Xiao Chuyang raised his hand and slapped him again. "So what if Su Of Gojoseon rebelled? His Majesty was killed by this traitor. Do you still want to return him?! "
"…"
Cui Huailu was speechless. His face turned red.
Liu Pingyang was so angry that he knelt down. "Prime Minister Xiao, please calm down. This matter concerns the people of the world. We can't save him if he is killed. Let's take this traitor down first and make a decision when we return to Chang 'an!"
Xiao Chuyang was furious. Looking at the confused civil and military officials, he turned around and walked out of the Wangjiang Platform.
"Return to Chang 'an quickly. You must protect His Majesty. Send a message to the Kings of Chu, Shu, and Yu. They will immediately lead the army to the capital to rescue the Emperor."
Liu Pingyang heaved a sigh of relief. He quickly stood up and asked the Wolf Guards to lock up Xu Buling, who was still laughing crazily. He followed Xiao Chuyang back to Chang 'an …
