Even though Shangguan Hong is dead, there is no resentment on his face. After all, an ambitious and ruthless person like him values his ideals the most, not his life. Since he has lost, he is aware that he has lost. In the struggle for the world, losing means death.
The green-eyed man is still staring at Zhuang Jun. His killing intent has completely locked onto Zhuang Jun. He knows Zhuang Jun is a very strong opponent so he must kill him in one blow.
Suddenly —
"Assassin! Assassin!"
Zhuang Jun suddenly shouts loudly. At the same time, he uses his palm to block his left arm. His whole body flies backwards and smashes the door to pieces. The personal guards outside the room seem to know everything very well. 2 crossbow bolts are shot directly at the green-eyed man.
These personal guards were arranged by Zhuang Jun and they also belong to Qin De's side.
Qin De can kill Shangguan Hong at any time but he has been waiting for this moment. How could he not know that Shangguan Hong and the Xiang clan have been setting a trap for him to jump into? However, Qin De beat them at their own game. Now that the Qin clan's army has entered the 2 Northern region counties, Shangguan Hong naturally has to announce to his army that the Shangguan clan supports the Qin clan.
Although this announcement is made on the surface, some high-level officials secretly still know that the Shangguan clan is on the Xiang clan's side. However, in order to carry out this plan, they do not dare to tell this news to ordinary middle-level officers or ordinary soldiers.
Except for a few high-level officials, almost all the troops in the 2 Northern region counties think the Shangguan clan is on the Qin clan's side. Therefore, such an important Flying Eagle Plan can be launched. The goal is — to control the entire 2 Northern region counties in one stroke.
"Die!"
The green-eyed man dodges continuously. At the same time, he brandishes a dagger-like weapon in his hand twice, deflecting the crossbow bolts. His whole body rushes straight at Zhuang Jun like a meteorite. Even if he dies, he must kill Zhuang Jun.
As a loyalist of the Xiang clan, this green-eyed man has been hiding in Shangguan Hong's place for a long time. He knows Zhuang Jun is an important chess piece for the Qin clan to control the 2 Northern region counties so naturally he must kill him.
"Assassin! Send the signal!"
There are also some guards in the surroundings of this secret place. They were attracted by Hongjun's shout at the beginning. As soon as they enter the courtyard and see Shangguan Hong dead in the room, they immediately send the signal. A whistling arrow shoots up to the sky.
Seeing this, Zhuang Jun sneered. Then, he said mournfully, "Everyone, this assassin killed His Highness. Let's kill him and avenge His Highness." At the same time, Zhuang Jun grabbed the saber at his waist and rushed forward.
A green light flashed in the green-eyed man's eyes, and he rushed towards Zhuang Jun.
"Kill! Avenge the Prince!"
One by one, the guards rushed over. These guards were all experts in protecting Shang Guan Hong. They surrounded the manor. It forbade outsiders from entering. When they saw this green-eyed man who had appeared out of nowhere, they naturally recognized him as an assassin.
With the prince dead, these guards couldn't escape the responsibility. Naturally, they rose to kill the assassin.
"Clang!"
Zhuang Jun and the green-eyed man's movements were extremely fast. In an instant, the two of them had exchanged dozens of moves. The bodyguards were also good fighters. They secretly shot arrows to affect the green-eyed man. Following the signal just now, more and more people arrived.
"Hmph!" The green-eyed man snorted coldly. At this moment, his back was pierced by a flying knife. Even his protective aura couldn't block it. Obviously, the one who threw the flying knife was also an expert.
Zhuang Jun's eyes lit up.
"Whizz!"
A flying knife flew out from Zhuang Jun's hand. The distance between the two of them was too short. Because the green-eyed man was slightly distracted by his injury just now, his stomach was immediately pierced by the knife. At the same time, another flying knife attacked him from behind —
There was a middle-aged man behind the green-eyed man. This middle-aged man and Zhuang Jun jumped up almost at the same time.
Their figures flashed and disappeared.
By the time the middle-aged man and Zhuang Jun stopped, the light in the green-eyed man's eyes had already dimmed. He knelt down powerlessly. At the same time, his upper body and lower body were unexpectedly split in half.
"Hiss"
Zhuang Jun tore off the clothes on the arm of the dead green-eyed man. There was a dragon-shaped mark on his left arm. A faint cold smile appeared on the corners of his mouth. He then said crazily: "Ah, it's the men of sacrifice of the Dominant Dragon Corps, the Dominant Dragon Corps of the Xiang clan."
As time went by, some big shots also arrived. Seeing this scene, they were all stupefied.
"The Prince supported the Qin clan this time. The Xiang clan must have held a grudge against us. That must be it." An old man said indignantly.
Zhuang Jun suddenly ran to the side of Shangguan Hong's corpse and suddenly knelt down with a bang. He said: "Your Highness, I, Zhuang Jun, have followed you for so many years but you were unexpectedly killed by the enemy's assassination. I, Zhuang Jun, hereby swear that I'll definitely lead our 2 Northern region counties to destroy the Xiang clan and avenge you!!!"
After saying so, Zhuang Jun kowtows 3 times in succession.
Suddenly —
"No good. Just now His Highness was assassinated in the Yan Xun Tower!" A man rushed in from outside and immediately reported to Zhuang Jun. After all, many things in the entire 2 Northern region counties were ordered by Shangguan Hong and executed by Zhuang Jun.
Hearing this news, Zhuang Jun's eyes suddenly turn very red: "Ah, the Xiang clan! F * * k the Xiang clan. The Xiang clan is now carrying out crazy revenge. I'll take the Prince's body back to the Prince's mansion. The few of you come with me. The rest of you quickly go and protect the other aristocratic princes. "Zhuang Jun shouted.
"Yes, sir!"
The personal guards present all knelt down and said at once.
… …
The 2 Northern region counties have been completely thrown into chaos. Assassinations have occurred one after another. Many big shots of the Shangguan clan have died. Even Zhuang Jun has been seriously injured. At the same time, even though Zhuang Jun has been injured, he still leads his troops to wipe out the secret branches of the Dominant Dragon Corps in the 2 Northern region counties.
A massacre!
The entire 2 Northern region counties have been completely thrown into a frenzy. One after another, people related to the Xiang clan have been executed. Even some big shots have been discovered to be spies of the Xiang clan. Even though these big shots have not admitted it, the secret letters they have sent to the Xiang clan in secret are ironclad evidence.
Of the 4 generals of the 2 Northern region counties, one has been assassinated. Another general is unwell and has been replaced by another general. As for the other 2 generals, they have not changed. Zhuang Jun is one of them.
Quite a few important figures of the Shangguan clan, such as the aristocratic princes, have been killed. The Shangguan clan only has one descendant left. He is only a 3 year old child. Henceforth, the Shangguan clan has completely declined. Everything is now under the control of Zhuang Jun.
Afterwards, in the name of revenge, Zhuang Jun orders 300,000 of the 400,000 troops of the 2 Northern region counties to join forces with the Qin clan's army to attack the Xiang clan.
Xiang Guang's entire body is paralyzed in his chair. His mind is in a mess.
"How could this be? How could this be? What's actually going on? Who can tell me what happened? It's only been a few days. Originally the situation was fine, but now … "Xiang Guang only has a headache, an incomparable headache.
The original plan was so perfect.
However, no matter how perfect it was, it was only a plan. A plan can only be considered real when it is realized. If it is not realized, it can only be regarded as a castle in the air.
"The Dominant Dragon Corps, ha-ha … Yi Yan, do you think the men of sacrifice of the Dominant Dragon Corps will kill Shangguan Hong? Will they? "Xiang Guang looks at Yi Yan, who is bowing on one side, and asks neurotically.
Yi Yan says affirmatively: "They won't. Green Eyes is the most successful and most outstanding man of sacrifice of our Dominant Dragon Corps. He definitely won't kill Shangguan Hong. Moreover, Green Eyes has been with Shangguan Hong for so many years. If he wanted to kill him, he would have done so long ago. Why would he wait until now? "
Looking at the group of people in front of him, Xiang Guang does not even have the mood to lose his temper.
"Get lost, all of you get lost!"
Xiang Guang says weakly with a wave of his hand. At the moment his mind is in complete disorder. He only knew that his throne was in danger, and his life was in danger.
Yi Yan's group of people hurriedly leave the imperial study one by one. Afterwards, the personal guards at the entrance close the door of the imperial study. Xiang Guang then sits paralyzed on a chair and sits there quietly. No one knows what he is thinking about. After a long, long time …
Peng!
The door of the imperial study opens automatically without anyone pushing it. Gusts of strong wind blow into the imperial study, causing Xiang Guang to narrow his eyes.
"Close the door, close the door for me …" Before he can finish speaking, Xiang Guang no longer dares to speak.
He sees an old man with a swift and fierce aura walk in directly from outside the door. This old man's long black hair flutters in the wind. He is wearing a long robe with wide sleeves. The long robe is blown up by the wind like a windbreaker. His eyes are like ice-cold sharp arrows.
There are 4 people behind the old man. They are standing in 2 rows, side by side. These 4 people all have extremely strange temperaments. That Mr Lan is one of them. The 4 people behind the old man are also expressionless. These 5 people walk into the imperial study one after the other. The guards of the imperial study seem to be dumbfounded.
"Great … Great Ancestor!"
Seeing the old man in front of him, Xiang Guang is completely dumbfounded. Great Ancestor has not left Weiyang Palace for many years. Even if he has left Weiyang Palace, perhaps Xiang Guang will not know. At least Great Ancestor has not left Weiyang Palace to see him even once.
Xiang Guang suddenly wakes up with a start. He suddenly stands up and kneels down, saying: "Guang 'er greets Great Ancestor!"
"Good. Our Xiang clan has been passed down for nearly 1000 years. However, in just several months, we've already lost half of it. How on earth did you become an emperor?" The old man looks coldly at Xiang Guang and rebukes him mercilessly.
Xiang Guang is immediately drenched in cold sweat. He knows very well that as long as this old man gives an order, he will lose his throne. In the Xiang clan, this old man is the god in the hearts of all the Xiang clansmen!
"Great Ancestor, you can't blame me. You also know that the Qin clan is so powerful. Moreover, they've obviously prepared for the Black Water bandits for several hundred years. Also, this time I don't know whether that suicide warrior was out of his mind or not. He unexpectedly tried to assassinate Shangguan Hong …" Xiang Guang says hurriedly. At this moment his mind is completely muddled. He only knows how to shift the blame.
"Shut up!" The old man's eyes flash with coldness. The entire imperial study seems to have become cold. Xiang Guang's heart immediately trembles and he is unable to say anything.
"I don't blame you. Do you think I don't know what you did in the East Vanquishing Prince's mansion in the past? If it hadn't been for that incident in the past which caused the death of the Qin clan's princess, how could things have developed to this point? "The old man rebukes angrily.
Xiang Guang is terrified in his heart but he still says: "But hasn't the Qin clan been preparing for several hundred years?"
"They've been preparing for several hundred years. If they wanted to rebel, they would have done so long ago. Why did they wait until now? Humph, for so many years, the Qin clan has been living comfortably. After several hundred years, they already don't want to rebel. If it hadn't been for you, how could they have rebelled? "
The old man rebukes coldly.
Xiang Guang does not dare to say anything more.
"Let's not talk about this. The Qin clan has disloyal intentions. Your incident was just a fuse. But your father was really blind to choose you as the emperor. Do you think it was that suicide warrior who tried to kill Shangguan Hong? Humph, now the 2 Northern region counties are under the control of that Zhuang Jun. He even made the 2 Northern region counties' armies obey the Qin clan's orders. Obviously this is all part of the Qin clan's scheme. That Zhuang Jun is also a member of the Qin clan! You can't even see through such a small scheme. You're really ruining the Xiang clan's empire by being the emperor. "The old man rebukes angrily.
Xiang Guang shudders out of fear.
"From now on, I'll personally decide everything related to the war. During this period of time, you'd better reflect on yourself. Go back to your palace and reflect on yourself. "With a command, the old man directly deprives Xiang Guang of his authority as the emperor.
Xiang Guang, however, is shocked in his heart. This Great Ancestor in front of him has not personally managed the imperial family's affairs for many years. Obviously he can't sit still in the current situation.
Afterwards, Xiang Guang is filled with joy from the bottom of his heart. This mess has become so chaotic that he is not in the mood to manage it. Letting this Great Ancestor manage it makes him happy and relaxed. He immediately says: "Guang 'er, I'll go back and reflect on myself right away."
After saying so, Xiang Guang immediately leaves the imperial study. From now on, he will be an emperor who does not live up to his name.
The old man turns around and stares outside the room. His eyes seem to be able to pierce through space.
"Qin clan, I'd like to see what tricks you've got. Don't force me to use the last step of my plan. If I use that step, even if we win, it'll be meaningless." A faint cold smile appears on the corners of the old man's mouth. His long hair and robe flutters. His entire body gives off an imposing manner of looking down on the world.
Mister Lan and the other 3 experts stand on one side, not daring to say anything to disturb this Great Ancestor.
No matter how chaotic the Chu kingdom is at the moment, Qin Yu and Xiao Hei, who are in the Wilderness, are practicing wholeheartedly. According to Qin Yu's memories, there are still a year or two before the Qin clan starts the war. Naturally he is not in a hurry so he is practicing hard on the way back.
In a boundless jungle, Qin Yu and Xiao Hei are traveling through it.
At the moment Qin Yu is wearing trousers and a sleeveless undershirt. His muscles on his upper body are completely exposed. These clothes were found in the wardrobe in the bedroom on the 2nd floor of Lei Mountain House. When Qin Yu first arrived at Lei Mountain House, his clothes were already torn. Later on, he found a lot of clothes in the bedroom. The Qian Long continent also has trousers and sleeveless undershirts.
However, the material of these clothes is very strange. Unexpectedly, they can recognize the owner by dripping blood on them like a holy weapon. Their defense is also extremely strong. Qin Yu drips his blood on them to keep them. These clothes are indeed very comfortable to wear. Qin Yu also does not want to be naked or draped in animal skins all the time.
Qin Yu's feet almost never touch the ground. He shuttles back and forth in the forest like a flash of lightning. Suddenly, his body stops moving extremely fast. Xiao Hei also stops at once.
"There's a demonic beast's aura. It's the Jin Dan stage."
A man and an eagle look directly in a direction. They do not try to avoid it at all. They see a seductive purple-clothed woman appear in their field of vision. That purple-clothed woman seems to be very surprised and uses her small hand to cover her small cherry mouth.
