Ding Dian spat out a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground. It was unknown whether he was dead or alive.
"Bodyguard Ding!" The rest of the guards cried out in alarm. Many of them rushed over to help.
Li Qingluo frowned and didn't attack again. Instead, she looked at the figure in front of her warily. "Attacking someone from behind is despicable."
"Winner takes all. What does a woman like you know?" The person laughed coldly. Obviously, he didn't take her words to heart. At the same time, he jumped out of the battle circle and didn't bother with the guards.
"Zhao Guicheng, it's you!" Zhao Gou recognized the person and couldn't help but be shocked and angry.
The person was Prince Yi, who was originally guarding the Suizao Corridor. Hearing this, he couldn't help but smile. "Greetings, Your Highness."
Zhao Gou said hatefully, "I wanted to lure Jia Shidao out, but I didn't expect to lure out two hungry wolves."
Prince Yi sighed. "Your Highness has given us such a good opportunity. If I don't do something, I'll be letting down Your Highness' good intentions."
Zhao Gou's eyes were filled with anger. "I've treated you well. I've promoted you from an ordinary member of the royal family to Prince Yi. Why are you rebelling against me?"
"Treated me well?" Prince Yi seemed to have been poked at a sore spot. He said hatefully, "Back then, the Your Highness had no heirs. The imperial court chose from all the members of the royal family. Zhao Guihe and I were sent to the capital together. Whether it was in terms of civil and military strategy, or intelligence, I was a hundred times better than Zhao Guihe. Why did you choose Zhao Guihe, who was inferior to me in every aspect, to be the Crown Prince and let me be a Prince? I'm not convinced. Since you won't give it to me, then I'll take it from you myself! "
"You're really treating me with kindness," Zhao Gou said angrily. "If it weren't for my care, you would still be an idle member of the royal family. Now that I've given you glory and riches, you're still not satisfied!"
"Doesn't Your Highness know that it's better not to give people hope in the first place than to take it away with your own hands?" Prince Yi's expression was ferocious. Especially when he thought of how Zhao Guihe had been above him all these years, he felt tormented.
Zhao Gou sighed. "Do you know why I chose Guihe to be the Crown Prince in the end?"
Prince Yi's pupils shrank, "Why?" This was something he had never been able to understand. Ever since he had been chosen to be sent to the capital, he had done well in everything, but in the end, the position of Crown Prince had still fallen to someone else.
Zhao Gou looked deeply at him and then said, "While you are better than Gui He in every way, you are not as good as him in one aspect."
"How am I not as good as him?" Prince Yi immediately asked, his heart full of dissatisfaction.
Zhao Gou looked in the direction of Lin 'an and let out a long sigh, "Although Gui He is not as good as you in many areas, at least he is more generous than you, more tolerant than you. Looking at it today, Zhen's initial judgment was indeed correct."
"Generous?" Prince Yi snorted coldly, "That's just an excuse to fool the common people. I only believe that the winner takes all!"
Unwilling to waste any more words with the other party, Zhang Xuan charged straight at him. Along the way, there were guards who tried to stop him, but he ended their lives with a single palm strike.
All the guards were shocked, thinking that a prince who had lived a comfortable life actually had such a high level of martial arts. It seemed that he had been harboring disloyalty for a long time.
Seeing that Prince Yi was about to reach Zhao Gou, suddenly a sword stabbed over from the side. The timing of this stab was very good. Prince Yi did not want to kill Zhao Gou and also be stabbed to death with a sword. His life was very precious.
Dodging to the side, he finally saw the appearance of the attacker clearly. He could not help but say angrily, "Yin Liting, don't forget that the lives of the people of Wudang Sect are still in my hands!"
Yin Liting snorted coldly, "Since the establishment of our Wudang Sect, we have always been loyal and righteous. How can we be threatened by you?" Seeing that Song Qingshu had not arrived yet, he could only stop Prince Yi first.
But now that Zhao Gou was dead, everything was settled.
"You don't care about the lives of the brothers of Wudang Sect, don't tell me you don't care about your pregnant wife?" Prince Yi was furious. Usually, he did not care about Yin Liting, but now that everyone in the small courtyard was busy, Yin Liting's appearance had actually changed the situation of the battle.
Yin Liting's expression turned solemn, "If the country does not exist, how can the family rely on them? Buhui should also agree with my actions. "Actually, Yang Buhui and the rest had already been arranged to a safe place. Why would he be threatened? It was just that he did not want to expose himself for the time being, so he feigned civility with him.
"Bastard, you will implicate the whole of Wudang Sect and die without a burial place." Prince Yi said exasperatedly. At this time, if he did not take down Zhao Gou, it would be inevitable that something unexpected would happen. So he did not waste his breath and directly attacked.
Seeing that he was coming at him fiercely, Yin Liting immediately concentrated and used a set of Taiji Swordplay at will, guarding the door tightly.
Although Prince Yi's martial arts were higher than Yin Liting's, the Taiji Swordplay was created by Zhang Sanfeng in his later years after Taiji Fist. It was truly the pinnacle of swordplay in recent times. Once Yin Liting's internal energy was activated, it was endless. Although he could not hurt his opponent, as long as he could protect himself, it was absolutely flawless.
Prince Yi was shocked and angry, but it was not easy to break through his defense. Seeing Li Qingluo standing at the side, he shouted, "Widow Hua, what are you waiting for?"
Li Qingluo's whole body trembled. She looked at him deeply, "So you are Old Sabre Honcho."
Prince Yi said angrily, "Why do you care who I am? Don't you want to take revenge?"
Li Qingluo snorted and then attacked Zhao Gou. Those ordinary guards could not block her Wave-like Subtle Steps. The yellow-robed girl at the side had been paying attention to the situation. Seeing that the situation was not right, she hurried over to block her. Xiao Long Nu chased over but was also blocked by her. In an instant, it became the yellow-robed girl against the two of them. Their martial arts were not below hers. Very soon, the yellow-robed girl was surrounded by danger.
Li Qingluo was already struggling to deal with Xiao Long Nu's elusive Pure Heart of Jade Maiden Swordsmanship. Now that Li Qingluo was added to the mix, she quickly had a few wounds on her body. If Xiao Long Nu had not unintentionally tried to kill her, she would have died long ago.
The yellow-robed girl knew that she could not withstand more than a few moves like this. Suddenly, she had an idea. She lowered her voice and said, "Are you doing this to Brother Song?"
"Brother Song?" Hearing her intimate tone, the two girls indeed slowed down their attacks. Li Qingluo shouted, "What is your relationship with Song Qingshu?"
The yellow-robed girl had originally just wanted to give it a try. When Xiao Long Nu had entered the palace to assassinate Xiao Long Nu, it was Song Qingshu who had risked his life to protect her. Based on her understanding of Song Qingshu, she did not believe that the two of them had no relationship.
Now that she saw the situation, she immediately understood. She answered ambiguously, "The relationship between you and him is the same as my relationship with him."
"Little wench, you dare to lie to me!" Li Qingluo was a bit angry, but her attacks slowed down a bit. The yellow-robed girl understood Song Qingshu, and they understood his personality even more. The yellow-robed girl in front of them was a heavenly beauty, and it was obvious that she knew Song Qingshu. If something really happened between the two of them and they hurt her, how would they explain to that bastard in the future?
Although Xiao Long Nu did not say anything, her lightning-fast Pure Heart of Jade Maiden Swordsmanship could not help but slow down a bit.
"Women are just unreliable!" A cold snort came from not far away. Murong Bo passed by them. With his cultivation, how could he not see that Li Qingluo and Xiao Long Nu were going easy on him? However, the current situation was chaotic. He did not have the mind to look into the reason. He directly attacked Zhao Gou.
The yellow-robed girl was shocked. She hurriedly looked at Li Yanshi who was originally fighting Murong Bo. She discovered that he was lying in a pool of blood. It was unknown whether he was dead or alive.
Li Yanshi's martial arts were originally not as good as Murong Bo's. Adding on the fact that he had suffered a serious sword wound, the gap was even greater.
He was going all out.
The yellow-robed girl wanted to save him. However, she was currently fighting with two people. How could she find the time to help?
The remaining guards beside Zhao Gou hurriedly blocked in front of him. However, Murong Bo's wish that he had held back for decades was about to be fulfilled. Naturally, he did not show any mercy when he attacked. Very quickly, he killed the remaining guards and grabbed Zhao Gou's neck. With his martial arts, he only needed to exert a little force and Zhao Gou would definitely die.
At this moment, Murong Bo was a little hesitant. In the beginning, when he was invited by the Mansion of Spirits, he naturally wanted to kill Zhao Gou. When the world was in chaos, their Murong family would take the opportunity to rise up.
However, looking at the current situation, if Zhao Gou died, it would most likely be Prince Yi who would ascend to the throne. The imperial court would probably be stabilized very soon. This might not be in line with his own interests.
Murong Bo and his son had always been proud of the Yan Kingdom's royal bloodline. They usually disdained the culture of the Han people. Whenever they had time, they would at most spend their energy on martial arts secret manuals. How would they have the time to read the history books of the Han people?
If he had read the story of Jing Ke's assassination of the Qin Dynasty, he would definitely know that at that time, Jing Ke had originally restrained Ying Zheng, but when he was about to kill him, he suddenly had a moment of hesitation. He thought that wouldn't it be better to force Ying Zheng to hand over the land that he had annexed all those years ago? It was this moment of hesitation that allowed Ying Zheng to find a chance to break free from his control. In the end, all his efforts were in vain.
At this moment, he also made the same mistake. He saw that Zhao Gou did not reveal any expression of panic. Instead, the corner of his mouth revealed a trace of a strange smile. Murong Bo's heart froze. Before he could react, he felt an incomparable piercing pain in his eyes. Then, everything in front of him turned blood red and he could not see anything.
"Ah!" Murong Bo screamed as he covered his bleeding eyes. He was in so much pain that he rolled on the ground. Looking at the two embroidery needles stuck in his eyes, everyone felt that their own eyes were also hurting.
"Who exactly did this?" At this moment, everyone was very confused. At this moment, a remnant shadow beside Murong Bo dashed directly into the bamboo forest. It moved like lightning. It was even faster than Li Qingluo's Water Treading Subtle Steps and Xiao Long Nu's Qing Gong.
"Just now, that was … Zhao Gou?" Li Qingluo was instantly bewildered. Even the yellow-robed girl was shocked. She never knew that an official could actually know martial arts.
With such an unforeseen event, how could they continue fighting? They very tacitly stopped and hurriedly chased after Zhao Gou. Prince Yi and Yin Liting who were at the side also had a face of disbelief. They also followed out at the same time.
In the bamboo forest, a few Grandmasters were fighting. The scattered forces had already destroyed the entire bamboo forest. The others wanted to go forward and help, but they could not get close at all.
Zhao Gou turned into a ray of yellow light and suddenly appeared at Shi Potian's side from a strange angle. Shi Potian was currently concentrating on dealing with Huang Chang's power. How would he know that there was another person beside him?
A cold light appeared in Zhao Gou's hand. Only a few people at the scene could clearly see that it was only a needle in his hand. A needle that was no different from an embroidery needle!
But this kind of embroidery needle, which would normally be insignificant to an ordinary person, was pierced into Shi Potian's body by Zhao Gou. Shi Potian let out an earth-shattering scream. His whole body was like a deflated balloon. Immediately, blood spurted out crazily. As if he was hit by a heavy hammer, he instantly crashed into a big tree at the side, breaking it in half.
As for Shi Potian himself, he tried to get up from the ground several times. But after trying a few times, he finally helplessly lay on the ground.
Huang Chang seemed to have expected this. Without any hesitation, he directly punched Huang Yaoshi's chest with the Great Demon Subduing Fist. Huang Yaoshi was originally relying on Shi Potian to block the front. Now that there was only one person left, coupled with the fact that he was deeply shocked, how could he defend? He was hit by the fist and his whole body flew out like a broken sandbag.
Huang Chang did not look at him again. In an instant, he appeared on the other side of the battlefield. His palm silently pressed towards Wang Chongyang's back.
