Chapter 213 - King Chu's Blood
"Sect Master Ling, you better not take this risk." The Prince advised again.
Ling Xiao waved his hand and shook his head: "I have already made my decision, there's no need for you all to say anymore. If I am not wrong, there will be a good opportunity."
Hearing Ling Xiao's mysterious words, Prince and the deputy general were at a loss, not knowing what they meant.
But Ling Xiao did not explain either, he stood up and said: "It's already midnight, it's better to rest early, I will have to trouble you to help me prepare the horses tomorrow morning."
With that, Ling Xiao got up and walked out of the hall.
"Sect Master Ling, don't you need to prepare other things? Don't we need to contact the transportation team that has infiltrated the Imperial City? " the deputy general asked loudly from behind him.
Ling Xiao did not even turn around, he only raised his hand and waved, "No need."
Seeing that, the deputy general helplessly sighed, and then jogged to follow, respectfully saying: "Sect Master Ling, I will lead the way."
In the morning of the next day, after Ling Xiao woke up early to eat breakfast, he saw a high quality horse waiting for him in the courtyard.
"Sect Master Ling, why are you leaving so early? The fastest transport group will take at least an hour to enter Imperial City." At this moment, the deputy general also came to the courtyard.
Seeing that, Ling Xiao shook his head: "There's really no need, because I'm worried that those people will drag us down."
Hearing this, the deputy general couldn't help but be surprised, he didn't think that Ling Xiao, who had been unwilling to answer the previous night, would actually come up with such a reason, which made him speechless. But thinking about how Ling Xiao had exterminated three hundred elites by himself, he had the confidence to say such arrogant words.
After that, Ling Xiao walked forward and patted his shoulder when he passed by the deputy general, and said: "Don't worry, I will take care of my own affairs, just do what you should do, and also send a message to the Hongji's leader, tell him to attack Chu faster."
After saying that, Ling Xiao mounted his horse and left the courtyard.
With the orders from a deputy general, no one dared to stop Ling Xiao's horse. Thus, Ling Xiao directly broke through the city gate, unobstructed.
Ling Xiao naturally had his own plans. He didn't think of relying on the transportation team to enter the Imperial City.
Before entering the Imperial City, it would definitely go through points and authentication. If it was discovered, the number of guards in the entire Imperial City would definitely increase, and at the same time, it would become more difficult for the people in the Imperial City to move around.
But up until now, Ling Xiao didn't think of a better way to sneak into the Imperial City.
But for Ling Xiao, he had sufficient strength, so he didn't need to think too much into it.
If one was strong, he or she could do whatever he or she wanted.
Ling Xiao strolled around the Imperial City from afar and bypassed all the surveillance, wanting to find a suitable break through.
The ones guarding here were all people, and humans couldn't afford to make mistakes, so Ling Xiao quickly found a way to safely enter the Imperial City.
Activating lightness exercise, Ling Xiao stepped on some of the uneven surfaces on the walls and steadily climbed over the extremely tall walls.
With Ling Xiao's abilities, it was very easy for him to hide himself without making a sound, so none of the guards at the top of the city wall noticed Ling Xiao's existence.
After entering the Imperial City, that would be Ling Xiao's territory. In the dark, Ling Xiao was an invincible existence.
They blended into the pedestrians, blended into the shops. In short, Ling Xiao was like a ghost who walked in the daytime. No one could see him, so naturally no one noticed him.
Ling Xiao originally planned to kill a few guards and sneak into their group to gather information, but after thinking about it, the entire Imperial City was extremely nervous at the moment.
Therefore, Ling Xiao could only gather the information he wanted by himself.
What was different from Ye Lvhongji's request was that Ling Xiao was not only here to gather information, he also wanted to do one more thing.
In order to smoothly complete this task, one had to use basic intelligence as a prerequisite.
In the middle of the Imperial City, on the stage, King Chu was lying on the Dragon Throne with a face full of enjoyment. In front of him, there were a few beautiful women dressed in neon gauze, and following the rhythm of the music, their graceful bodies constantly twisted, showing the most beautiful side of them all.
"Haha!" Good! The dancers of the Imperial City are just not the same! " After the song ended, King Chu clapped his hands and cheered loudly.
At this moment, a eunuch rushed to the front of the stage and knelt down on both knees with both hands raised high, shouting loudly, "Reporting to Your Majesty, there is a war in the capital!"
Hearing this, King Chu immediately lost all interest, his face turned slightly cold, and shouted sternly: "What is it, quickly report it!"
"Ye Lvhongji led his army and breached the gates of Chu, occupying the capital of Chu!" The eunuch didn't dare raise his head.
"What?!" Don't they know that their families are controlled by This King? " When King Chu heard that, he could not believe the truth. Could it be that Ye Lvhongji did not want his family's lives anymore?
At this moment, another person hastily ran over. He was not a eunuch, but a deputy general who was responsible for the transportation of food.
"What do you want?" When King Chu saw the person, he suddenly thought of something in his heart. He valued Ye Lvhongji's family a lot, so he was very familiar with the people who would transport food here.
The man in charge of transporting the food fell to the ground, his voice shrill and nervous. "Reporting to Your Majesty, all 300 elite soldiers on the mountain have all died!"
Hearing this, King Chu felt a stifling sensation in his chest, to the point that he almost couldn't breathe. With much difficulty to catch his breath, he opened his mouth with difficulty: "Then where is the person that was locked up!"
"They're all gone!" The people below the stage replied.
"Pfft!" King Chu spat out a mouthful of blood, which was all over the floor.
Seeing this scene, the eunuch at the side hurried to support King Chu, and at the same time shouted loudly: "Pass down the order! Imperial Physician! Imperial Physician! "
Seeing this, the dancers on the high platform screamed and ran away. The emperor was so angry that they vomited blood in front of them. If they did not quickly run away, their heads might fall off.
King Chu who was being supported, shakily raised his hand, pointed at the two people below the stage, and said with difficulty: "Go, get them to quickly gather their troops, capture all of the citizens inside the city, Ye Lvhongji is about to lead the troops over, we cannot sit and wait for death, we cannot sit and wait for death!"
The eunuch at the side, upon hearing this, hurriedly stood up and repeated King Chu's words to the two people below. Very quickly, an inhumane suppression and arrest was carried out in the Imperial City, as if it was the end of everyone.
