Chapter 205 (1/2)
Even Su Feihun himself did not know when that word was written on his forehead, so why did he not notice it at all?
Logically speaking, how could an expert of this level not feel someone had written something on his forehead?
In reality, the word 'An' was not written by the word 'An', but by the word 'An'.
Dust filled the air as An Zaiyue shook out a character that was written in the air. Then, the dust landed on Su Feihun's forehead.
Although it wasn't written on Su Feihun's forehead, it was still better than Su Feihun's sword.
After all, the speed at which An Zhe had written a single word was slightly faster than when he had stabbed out with his sword.
The crowd fell silent, as if the world had suddenly shut down.
Immediately after that, there was a huge clamor. It was as if the sea water had rushed into the room, smas.h.i.+ng everything in its wake.
The excited people began to get restless, not knowing how to find their outlet.
They were gradually going crazy because this battle was perhaps the most exciting and memorable battle they had ever seen in their lives.
Su Feihun's lonely figure calmly left.
Two people walking with their backs to each other, this scene is bound to become an eternal cla.s.sic.
The chubby, even a little clumsy, official of the Rites Department looked at An Zeng's back and sneered, ””Even if we win this time, it doesn't mean that he's going all out.””
””Who isn't?””
The official from the Ministry of Rites shook his head. ””How arrogant. I can't save him.””
An Zhan suddenly turned around. ””Who the h.e.l.l are you?””
That fellow actually grinned and said, ””I said that you would see me at the Autumn Festival.””
””Sure enough, it's you.””
The fatty turned around and no longer looked at him. Instead, he shouted loudly, ””Be quiet. The compet.i.tion is not over yet.””
All of you, quiet down! Do you hear me? I'm going to continue fighting against the chief challenger. It's only the first round. Do you think it's over? ””
Only then did everyone realize that this was only the first round.
Anjou won over Su FeiLun, but he still hadn't gotten the top scorer.
An Zaiyue turned his head to the side, wondering if the battle between Nie Qing and Feng Xiuzhu was over.
The place the two of them chose to fight was at the peak of Empyrean Terminus Palace. It was unknown where their sudden interest had gone to now.
For the sake of sparing no effort, they didn't want to stay in a place with more people. That battle would definitely be even more dangerous than the battle between him and Su Feihun.
An Zeng walked on the potholes on the ground, one step deep and the other shallow.
Only now did he realize that he and Su Feihun had already shattered the entire plaza.
Just as the fat official was continuing to select the people to fight, chaos broke out in the vicinity of the South Gate of Heavenly Temple on the north side.
An Zhe looked in that direction and saw at least a dozen people dressed in ordinary civilian attire rus.h.i.+ng towards the city gate. It was obvious that they had made their move against King Yan, Mu Changyan.
On the city wall, the imperial guards were engaged in an intense battle with the a.s.sa.s.sins. The scene immediately turned chaotic.
No one had expected that someone would dare to a.s.sa.s.sinate the King of Yan at this time. This was simply insane to the extreme.
However, An Zhe's eyes could not help but turn towards the bottom of the city gate, then he pounced over like an arrow shot out from a feather.
By the time he reached the foot of the city gate, at least three military officials had been killed.
Indeed!
a.s.sa.s.sinating a Swallow King was just a pretense. It was impossible for those people to kill a Swallow King with just their skills.
They were deliberately attracting the attention. Everyone was rus.h.i.+ng towards the Yan King's side. Who would care about these military officials who were prisoners?
Even though Mu Changyan had An Chengli arrange some men to protect these people, when the Swallow King was attacked, these people didn't have the mood to take care of those military officials. They all rushed towards the a.s.sa.s.sins.
An Xuan sighed in his heart. This man had not only killed a lot of military officials, but had also forced the potential strength of the King of Yan out of his body.
One of the a.s.sa.s.sins raised his long blade and chopped at Chen Zeyan's neck, ””Don't blame me, Mr. Chen. You can find whoever you want to find after you die. I am following orders!””
The blade rapidly descended, heading straight for Chen Zeyan's neck.
Clang!
A stone shot over and hit the longblade, knocking it away.
The long blade swung down to the side, chopping a piece of limestone behind Chen Zeyan with a loud bang.
That person was stunned for a moment. He hurriedly raised his blade again to slash at Chen Zhiyan. By the time he did, it was already time for An Zaiyan to arrive.
An Zaihai's fist punched out, and the explosion of Qi exploded on the a.s.sa.s.sin's back. Under the huge force, the a.s.sa.s.sin was thrown forward.
When he tried to struggle to stand up, An Zeng kicked him in the shoulder. The a.s.sa.s.sin's knee couldn't help but completely fall on the ground with a thud, shattering the stone floor underneath with his knee.
An Zeng's knee followed closely behind, colliding with the a.s.sa.s.sin's temple. In that instant, the a.s.sa.s.sin's eyeb.a.l.l.s popped out, and his head tilted to the side.
An Zaiyan rushed back, picked up a long blade from the ground, and swung it at Chen Zeyan … Pa! The chain on Chen Zeyan's hands and feet was cut in half.
He pulled Chen Zaiyan away, and at least a dozen of the a.s.sa.s.sins pressed their way over.
””Kid!””
An a.s.sa.s.sin with his face covered said sinisterly, ””This matter has nothing to do with you. You should know that with just your strength alone, you won't be able to stop us.””
””It is just a waste of your life. A wise man knows when to retreat. It is better for you to get out of my way.””
