Chapter 65 - Heavily Injured
The lady in front was naturally Infernal Queen!
Infernal Queen's face suddenly changed! Zhao Chen had only trained in martial arts for a year, his internal energy had not even broken through to the fifth level of the Postnatal Realm, so it could be said that his power was limited! But Zhao Chen's sword technique made her feel as if there was a mountain pressing down on her, making her unable to resist!
The Infernal Queen had roamed the martial arts world for many years, but this was the first time she had seen such a sword technique! This sword art was upright and honorable; it was a move where the weak won against the strong!
"What sword technique is this?" At this moment, she only had this thought in her mind!
After all, ever since Zhao Kuangyin created the Grand Righteous Sword Style, even though the future generations of Song Dynasty Emperors knew of this godly technique, no one was willing to put in effort to learn it! As for the martial arts world, they had never seen such a sword art before!
Under this sword strike, Infernal Queen actually had a feeling that he did not want to defend, that he could not resist!
Her body involuntarily leaned to the side, dodging the sword!
However, very quickly, a crimson blush appeared on her face! She was a dignified peak Xiantian expert, and was already infinitely close to the highest realm of Xiantian Full Circle! At this moment, facing a ten-year old child, she actually didn't attack him head on but dodged! This was a form of humiliation! This made her extremely angry!
With a flip of her hands, the jade green color appeared once more. Following that, her palms once again struck towards the sky!
One palm energy after another pressed onto Zhao Chen's chest, while the other on Zhao Chen's abdomen!
Zhao Chen let out a grunt, and his body flew backwards, falling to the ground!
The Seven Star Dragon Abyss Sword also fell to the ground involuntarily, but he actually muttered: "What a beautiful woman!"
The Infernal Queen across her was stunned. She never would have thought that Zhao Chen would say such words that sounded similar to teasing!
Of course, in her opinion, this was just a joke, but to a youth from the modern era, this was just a compliment! Ever since Zhao Chen came to this era, even though he had seen many women, including the concubines of his royal father that year, there was not a single woman that could compare to the Infernal Queen in front of him! Although Zhao Chen could not see her appearance clearly, in his heart, he had already treated her as a peerless beauty.
With that, Zhao Chen laid on the ground, and couldn't move anymore!
"Your Highness the Crown Prince!"
At that moment, Wang Gui and Zhang Xian had already reacted, the two of them turned pale with fright!
On the other side, Wang Gui had already pounced towards Infernal Queen, while Zhang Xian pounced towards Zhao Chen, checking his body condition!
Infernal Queen fluttered like a butterfly, her right hand struck towards Wang Gui!
Wang Gui roared, and slashed forward!
The blade force and the blade Qi clashed, the blade Qi dispersed and the palm force struck Wang Gui's body! Wang Gui could have avoided the palm, but he did not dodge, and allowed the palm strike to strike him, while the blade in his hand continued to move forward! Wang Gui was afraid that the Infernal Queen would hurt Zhao Chen again after he dodged it! In order to protect Zhao Chen, the crown prince, he had put his life at stake!
In just a moment, another three strikes had been exchanged. Blood trickled out of the corner of Wang Gui's mouth! Infernal Queen's martial arts were too high, and he was far from being his match!
Both of them knew that this was the most dangerous time. They could not afford to relax even a little, nor could they afford to be distracted! The two of them desperately moved forward and cooperated with each other! The two brothers often practiced together, and when they complemented each other like this, their powers were almost three times stronger than a person's!
"The two of you are also prodigies of martial arts!" "Looks like the Imperial Court is indeed worthy of its name. Although it is nearing its demise, it still has Xiantian level guards like you!" Infernal Queen's voice transmitted through the rain!
Her voice was very soft, but it had a certain charm to it! Hearing this voice, Wang Gui and Zhang Xian suddenly felt dizzy!
This was her ultimate technique, the Sky Demon Sound, released by her profound inner force. Wang Gui and Zhang Xian were not able to sense it for a moment, hence they were injured!
"I'll be able to kill you in at most twenty moves!" Infernal Queen's voice sounded once again!
Wang Gui and Zhang Xian were both extremely anxious at this moment. Who would have thought that such a powerful assassin would appear in the Han Palace! It seemed like not only would the crown prince die here, they would also die here!
"We can't serve His Highness the Crown Prince anymore!" Wang Gui's face revealed a wry smile!
"That year, I advised Big Brother and Second Brother to follow the Emperor Kang instead of the crown prince! Unfortunately, my big brother and second brother won't listen to me. Now we are loyal, but how long has this loyalty lasted, we are going to die here, and the crown prince is going to die here too! " Even at this moment, Zhang Xian still did not change his personality, and secretly complained in his heart!
Just as the two were about to desperately use their deathblow, the pressure in front of them suddenly lessened!
Infernal Queen's body actually floated backwards!
"Today, I will spare your lives!" However, your crown prince, he received two of my strikes, so he will definitely die! " Infernal Queen's tender laughter continuously sounded from far away as her figure gradually disappeared!
"Big brother, why did the assassin leave?" Zhang Xian said in shock.
"Our people are here!" Wang Gui gasped for breath, and said.
Zhang Xian was startled, he looked around, and only then did he realise that countless guards were already running towards him!
"Hurry up and pay a visit to His Highness, the Crown Prince!" Wang Gui said anxiously.
He endured his injuries and walked towards Zhao Chen! Seeing Zhao Chen lying on the ground with his eyes closed, Wang Gui's face changed!
He pressed one of his hands on Zhao Chen's body, and after a moment, he frowned!
"Quick, bring His Highness the Crown Prince back to his chambers!" Zhang Xian said.
Wang Gui nodded. He carried Zhao Chen and under the protection of countless guards, he headed towards the Dry Clear Palace.
In front of the Dry Clear Palace, Yue Fei was originally fighting a great battle with Xiao Yunzi!
He was not as old as Sayoko, and his techniques were not as profound as Sayoko's! However, his martial arts were incomparably valiant. It was as if every single one of his punches were using up every ounce of strength in his body. It was as if every single punch contained the complete will of his body within it, as if it would never stop until he died!
In front of such a powerful fist technique, it was difficult for the little boy to get away from it!
Only, very quickly, the voice of a distant Infernal Queen came out. Yue Fei was greatly shocked!
"It looks like Infernal Queen has succeeded, Crown Prince of the Great Song Dynasty is doomed for sure! I, the unfettered son, have finally avenged myself! "Farewell!" "Hahaha!"
At this moment, the guards in front of him also rushed over. The unrestrained youth no longer bothered to fight. He waved the sword in his hand forward and a sword light flashed. His body then floated towards the back!
"Damn it!" At this moment, Yue Fei could no longer bother with chasing after the carefree person, his body moving towards the Dry Clear Palace!
By the time he arrived at Dry Clear Palace, Wang Gui and Zhang Xian had already brought Zhao Chen in, and countless guards followed along!
"Big brother, third brother, how is the crown prince?" Yue Fei said anxiously.
"His Highness the Crown Prince was wounded by an assassin and is currently unconscious!" Wang Gui said.
"Let me see!" Yue Fei said.
He walked in front of Zhao Chen with large steps and pressed his palm on Zhao Chen's chest. A moment later, Yue Fei's face turned pale white!
"Second Brother, could His Highness still be saved?" Zhang Xian said somewhat fearfully.
"His heartbeat is faintly discernible! Quickly, put the Crown Prince on the bed and sit him down cross-legged. I want to help him circulate his energy to heal his injuries! " Yue Fei said.
Very quickly, Zhao Chen was placed on the bed, with his eyes tightly shut! Yue Fei came to his back and pressed both of his palms on Zhao Chen's back. His internal energy continuously entered Zhao Chen's body!
Sweat trickled down Yue Fei's forehead, and gradually streams of hot air appeared above his head!
In the Dry Clear Palace, had already received the news, but he was stopped by Wang Gui and Zhang Xian the moment he rushed over!
Wang Gui pointed inside, nodded, and said softly: "How is His Highness, the crown prince?"
Wang Gui said: "Your Highness the Crown Prince is severely injured! My second brother is healing him! Hurry and inform General Crop, Lord Li and the others, tell them to hurry over! "
Kang An nodded and headed outside! He was also very anxious, he was the manager of the Managed and was in charge of taking care of Zhao Chen's safety! But tonight, an assassin had actually entered the Imperial Palace and stabbed and injured Zhao Chen! If something were to happen to Zhao Chen, he, the manager of Managed would probably be executed!
"Who exactly are they? How dare he assassinate the Crown Prince? I need to notify General Crop as soon as possible! I hope that His Highness the Crown Prince is safe and sound! " His footsteps were hurried, and because of his anxiety, he almost tripped over the threshold! Fortunately, he was also a peak Houtian martial artist. His body flashed and he finally came out! Then, before he could even notify Zhe Keqiu, he had already quickly rushed towards Zhe Keqiu's residence!
Tonight, a banquet was being held in the Li Residence to celebrate Zhe Yanzhi's return!
It turned out that after Zhe Yanzhi had defeated him that day, he had actually gone all the way west! He could not fight, but his escaping techniques were extremely powerful! He had not rested for ten days and ten nights. He had actually headed all the way north to the border of the Northern Song and Western Xia! Originally, he had thousands of personal guards by his side. However, he was too fast for the personal guards to keep up with his footsteps! When he stopped, he realized that he was the only one beside him!
After that, Zhe Yanzhi turned back once again, and after recruiting a few defeated soldiers, he once again asked for news about Jin Army!
When he found out that the Jin Army had retreated, he rushed over to the Dazhang Pass in a hurry. Afterwards, he headed over to the Middle Han Area from the Dazhang Pass! In fact, he was only about fifty kilometers away from Zhao Chen and the rest's convoy. As soon as Zhao Chen and the rest arrived at Middle Han Area, he had already arrived at Middle Han Area today!
Seeing that his son was safe and sound, Zhe Keqiu was overjoyed.
At that moment, the door was slammed open! Zhe Keqiu got up, took out his treasure sword, and slashed forward!
"Father! It's me! " Zhe Yanzhi's voice came out!
"Why is it you? Why did you come in without a notice? " Zhe Keqiu frowned.
He was exceptionally cautious, so even when sleeping, he would put the treasured sword aside. Even if his own son rashly barged in, he would still ask him the reason!
"Father! Not good! Kang An just came over... " Zhe Yanzhi said.
"Kang An? Could it be that something has happened to the Crown Prince? " Zhe Keqiu interrupted Zhe Yanzhi and asked.
His mind was sharp, he had only heard the two words "Kang An", and when he saw his son hurriedly enter, he immediately guessed that something had happened to the crown prince!
"That's right!" An assassin entered the palace, and the crown prince was heavily injured! Now is the time to die! " Zhe Yanzhi said!
"Damn it!" Zhe Keqiu immediately got off the bed, put on his clothes, put on his shoes and walked out!
