C208 (2/2)
At the same time, the Qin Dynasty was still in a world of ice and snow, while China was already as warm as spring, nearing the start of summer.
Adept, quick, slow!
Rong Chu looked out the window at the heavy rain with a worried expression, ”This is going to rain for a while, I don't know when it's going to stop.”
That night, Xuanyuan Shishi slept in her room with Chu beside her, while Leaves and Mu Yun rested outside.
A sharp cry in the middle of the night pierced through the silence of the night. In the middle of the night, Xuanyuan Shishi suddenly woke up from her dream.
Mu Wan Yun and Ye Wen immediately rushed in.
She only saw Xuanyuan Shishi unconscious and sleeping, but she was incomparably frightened. A series of screams came from her mouth, and she was surrounded by Chu, tightly hugging her. She called out her name, but it was unable to wake her from her nightmare.
”royal father! Not father! ” It was unknown what terrifying things she had dreamed of as beads of sweat rolled down her forehead.
As everyone listened to her ramblings, they could guess that she might have dreamed of seeing Chu Lian in the prison. However, after that, they all looked at each other in dismay.
Xuanyuan Shou'er shouted: ”I'm sorry, royal father! I'm sorry! It wasn't me, it wasn't me! Don't believe her. She's not me... No, royal father! ”
Her expression became increasingly excited, as if she was dreaming of what had happened in the past!
She changed the topic of her words and roared furiously, ”Xuanyuan Wushang! You returned my royal father's life! ”Xuanyuan Wushang …”
The torrential rain continued for three whole days.
As they continued forward, they had no choice but to turn back.
The mudslide triggered by the torrential rain had destroyed the official road to China's capital.
They could not move forward at all.
Rong Chu looked at the soil and said, ”I know there is one other way. Able to bypass Mourning Mountain. It's just that the road is rough and difficult to traverse. ”
And we have to go around, but that's the only way. Otherwise, he would have to wait here. After the road was reconstructed, they would move on.
But they had no time to wait.
Along the way, they had already encountered countless assassinations! Their movements were exposed, and they were only able to fight their way out of the capital. Countless assassins lay in ambush along the way.
These killers came wave after wave like a flood, never stopping.
Among them were Pure Yufeng, Xuanyuan Wushang, and Imperial Concubine Yu who had been hiding in the dark all this time.
Once they were on their way, they could get rid of these assassins. The exhaustion of his internal energy was extremely severe. The mountain road collapsed again. Otherwise, they would have been able to fly on their flying swords.
However, there were still assassins chasing them, so they couldn't wait here. The only way was to take a detour.
It was possible to go around the mountain, but that was a path that the hunters and the herb gatherers had barely managed to walk through, they simply could not allow the horses to pass through!
They had to abandon their horses to go up the mountain.
Murong Yun, Chu and Ye Wen could, but Xuanyuan Xu'er could not! Since she was a child, she had grown up in a land of gold and jade. Even normal mountain roads would not be able to match up to her, let alone this kind of rugged and difficult road.
The road was muddy, and they moved very slowly. The first was that the path was difficult, and the second was that there were no signs of being followed.
Fortunately, Mu Yingyun had been prepared the whole way here. After entering the Da Xia Empire, she had ordered the rest of the assassins to use their appearances to obscure the vision of the assassins.
However, when they climbed up the Mausoleum of Mausoleum of Books, they discovered that the path that the mud avalanche had destroyed was not natural disaster, but rather a man-made disaster.
Xuanyuan Wushang, who had received the news early on, was already waiting for them in a serious manner!
He led 30,000 men to stand guard at the foot of the Mausoleum of Depraved Prison Mountain!
If they were to pass through the official road, there would be many branches heading towards the Da Xia Empire.
Sunset Slope!
Sunset Slope, a radius of five kilometers, was heavily guarded. Thirty thousand Da Xia soldiers had been waiting for a long time.
In the end, only seventeen shadows had gathered here, and there were also twenty-one of them – Mu Huanyun, Xia Chuchu, Ye, and Xuanyuan Shishi!
However, they had to face 30,000 heavy soldiers!
Mu Huanyun frowned, even though their cultivation was high, they couldn't defeat tens of thousands of soldiers!
Xuanyuan Wushang was wearing dark red armor. He urged his horse forward as he looked at them slyly, ”We sent out a thousand assassins and you guys actually made it here unscathed. We really admire you guys.”
He called himself Zhen!
Xuanyuan Shishi suddenly shouted, ”Xuanyuan Wushang! You're still calling yourself 'I' even after you've placed a house arrest on my father? You despicable person who plotted to seize the throne! ”
That night, she remembered!
Xuanyuan Wushang smirked as he looked at Xuanyuan Shishi, ”It seems like you've really remembered everything. Since you've remembered it, you should remember that the poison that was given to royal father was personally carried by you.”
”You …” ”Xuanyuan Shou'er!” Xuanyuan Wushang, I will kill you! ”
Xuanyuan Shou'er's anger soared to the heavens. She pulled out her sword and was about to stab forward, but was stopped by Chu Lian. ”Xu'er, calm down!”
”He killed our royal father!”
Xuanyuan Wushang corrected him with a cold laugh, ”We said it before, the person who poisoned the previous emperor was you! My princess! I shall follow the will of the heavens and inherit the throne. Today, I shall personally behead all of you, who are as random as you. To avenge the late emperor! ”
He suddenly unsheathed his sword and pointed the tip of the sword straight at Rong Chu. ”Xuan Yuan, you're actually still alive. However, I don't think you'll be able to see tomorrow's sun!”
”Someone come!” Kill them for me! ”
