Gu Xijiu's body suddenly fell backward, and the cold light hit her face directly on the wall of the carriage behind her! With a loud crack, the roof of the sedan was blown off.
It happened so fast that the bearers outside could not react in time.
"There's an assassin!"
"Protect Miss Gu!"
The bearers of the royal family were skilled in Kung Fu. Although they were panicking, they did not panic. They shouted and carried the sedan and ran.
The sound of whistling could be heard from outside. Apparently, the assassin did not want to let her go. He chased after her and shot a hidden weapon from time to time.
Fortunately, the bearers were good at Kung Fu. They dodged left and right while carrying the sedan and did not let the hidden weapon hit the sedan.
However, under such an attack, the bearers could not follow the predetermined route.
The bearers were originally carrying the sedan to the imperial study. Now, in order to avoid the assassin, they seemed to be panicking and ran into a small alley.
"There's an assassin in the palace!" The Firmament Stone was surprised.
Gu Xijiu held the handrail tightly and looked a little panicked. However, she answered the Firmament Stone calmly, "It's another test!"
The Firmament Stone was speechless.
"What should we do?"
"Act according to the situation."
An assassin flew and jumped down from the palace wall. A cold light was aimed at Gu Xijiu who was in the sedan!
It was a sword that was shining with a cold light. The edge of the sword had a strange blue color and was obviously poisonous. If Gu Xijiu was stabbed by it, she would die immediately.
Gu Xijiu seemed to be in a panic as well. She desperately rolled around in the sedan. The cold light brushed past her arm and cut her sleeve. It also cut a little bit of her skin. Blood oozed out, and the blood was blue. Apparently, she was poisoned.
The assassin's sword was nailed to the bottom of the sedan and could not be pulled out.
Gu Xijiu flipped the dagger in her sleeve and stabbed it towards the assassin's heart!
The assassin did not have time to pull out his sword. He leaned back and dodged Gu Xijiu's dagger. He turned his body and finally pulled out the sword and stabbed it towards Gu Xijiu.
The sedan was too narrow and it was difficult to dodge. Gu Xijiu flew out of the sedan.
The assassins seemed to have emerged from the ground. There were more than ten of them attacking the sedan.
There were only four porters, and two of them had already fallen while the other two were still struggling. No one had the time to take care of Gu Xijiu.
When Gu Xijiu jumped out, one of the porters shouted, "Miss Gu, run to the left! There are royal guards there … "
Without hesitation, Gu Xijiu turned around and ran away. The rest of the assassins wanted to chase after her but were stopped by the two porters. Only one assassin managed to break through the defense and came after Gu Xijiu.
There were shouts and the sounds of weapons clashing. It was chaos.
At the top of a large hall, there were a few people standing there, overlooking everything that was happening.
A few pairs of eyes were staring at Gu Xijiu's running figure, not missing any of her movements.
One of them watched for a moment and shook his head. "At such a critical moment, even if she used all her skills, it would still be nothing more than this."
"Judging from her movements, she is at most a warrior with a rank two spiritual power. She is far weaker than Count Le Hua!" Another person said.
"That's right. With her skills, she couldn't have killed Count Le Hua. She's not the killer! Your Majesty, I feel that she can be cleared of suspicion. "The third person made a judgment.
The three of them surrounded a man in a yellow robe. The man in the yellow robe was Emperor Xuan.
