Chapter 131: His Highness in Crisis
Translator: Misty Cloud Editor: Misty Cloud
It’s nighttime. Inside the Dark Illusionary Space, the fire qilin suddenly opened its pair of eyes. Within the demonically red pupils, a beam of light flashed!
Baili Jia Jue was reclining on the decoratively carved wooden bed. His pair of hands rested on his chest. His posture was as graceful as a nobleman from an ancient castle. Only, he didn’t sleep at all. That pair of long and narrow phoenix shaped eyes oozing faintly cold air under the silver mask.
Swish!
Countless numbers of swords fell at the top of his head while Baili Jia Jue narrowed his demonically cold eyes!
He didn’t even move the slightest bit, yet all of the swords seemed to have been stopped in midair!
After that, the corners of Baili Jia Jue’s eyes rose and there seemed to be an interaction as some of those tough double edged swords were fragmented in fine sections then became powder!
The black clothed people were alarmed as they glanced at each other a couple of times and turned their bodies to fall to the ground, then stood as they planned to continue to launch their second attack!
But they saw the man turned his hand over and the rest of those tough swords seemed as if they were controlled by someone and turned around and thrust towards them!
The black clothed people held up their hand to block. All of those people, one after another, took a step back, their throat tasting something sweet while their internal organs were in pain.
This person, he…he unexpectedly already recovered his qi!
The black clothed people again exchanged meaningful glances and wanted to bring this news back.
“Want to run?” Baili Jia Jue’s voice was extremely cold and firm, his killing attack decisive, as he grabbed one person’s neck from among them and slowly lifted him up with a completely murderous movement. Yet those movements done by him contained more of a kind of indescribable beauty.
Only a snapping sound was heard!
Baili Jia Jue then flung the limp black clothed person in his hand out. His pair of eyes didn’t flinch at all as he stirred up fear in everyone!
“Baili Jia Jue, you…” The black clothed leader saw that as Baili Jia Jue raised his hand, waves of martial qi penetrated and he immediately was both startled and angry. However, he had misgivings of the formidable destructive power once Baili Jia Jue’s fingers were raised, so he unconsciously fell back.
“This highness’ name, is it something you can use casually?” Baili Jia Jue arced his lips and coldly smiled,this time only moved his fingers slightly. His emotionless appearance simply made it more difficult for people to watch.
However, following the sound of his voice, those innumerable black clothed people who were already backing up screamed, as one by one, they lay prone on the ground.
Everyone complexion changed color in fright.
At this moment, even if the black clothed people had a superior numerical advantage, nevertheless, facing this kind of heaven defying power from Baili Jia Jue, they also didn’t dare to directly face this killing god.
Because no one informed them that Third Prince had already recovered his martial qi!
However, since they’d prepared to assassinate Third Prince, they couldn’t just simply give up.
The black clothed people seemed as if they haven’t concluded killing and wave after wave of people rushed forth towards him!
The beautiful youngster whose mouth was gagged narrowed his pair of eyes and watched these assassins approaching in unbroken succession.
The thin lips originally curving up slowly stiffened.
Oh no!
Something’s not right!
These were not the Han family’s soldiers coming to save him!
At the beginning, he even thought that these were his own people, because they were all dressed in the Han family’s distinctive uniform.
But when that sword fell beside him, the beautiful youngster then swore in his heart, motherf*!
He only informed them so they could give Imperial Older Brother a lesson.
He certainly didn’t allow them to kill himself!
Moreover, if they were truly the Han family’s guards, it’d be impossible for them not to recognize him!
“Ahh!” The beautiful youngster budged his own face and with great difficulty spit out the stinky socks from his mouth. “Imperial Older Brother, they’re not the Han family’s people!”
His words had just sounded out when the sound of disorganized horse’s hooves transmitted over, echoing within the deserted long alley, it was extremely clear.
Right at that moment, Wei Wei, who was leaving, turned and pressed her back against the wall, listening to those sounds getting nearer and nearer.
“Girl.” Yuan Ming’s pair of ears also pricked up as his appearance immediately became different right after.
Wei Wei thought about it, directly leaped onto a roof, and gazed into the distance. She only saw a burst of smoke and dust rolling as thousands of troops rushed towards the direction of the inn.
These troops should be troops from nearby areas. Otherwise, it’d be impossible for them to be assembled over here in such a short time.
However, such a large number of troops stationed nearby and summoned in the evening could only mean one thing. They wanted to secretly assassinate someone!
Wei Wei’s pair of eyes tightened as she voiced in her mind ‘Oh no!’
“Girl, why are you running so quickly?” Yuan Ming watched the large scale cavalry approaching closer and closer. “Girl, what in the world are you thinking of doing?” Clearly she knew it was dangerous, yet she ran back.
Wei Wei’s head didn’t turn around as she said indifferently. “It’s because of waiting for me that Third Prince stayed at the inn.”
“But there’s such a large number of cavalry troops.” Yuan Ming’s demonic voice continued. “Based on your current ability, you can not handle them.”
Wei Wei curved her lips into a smile. “That’s not necessarily true.” The sound of horses’ hooves got even closer, the rolling dust cloud of innumerable armored horses arrived just a short distance from them in a flash.
Baili Jia Jue was standing right in front of the inn. His expression was as apathetic as always. His long and narrow phoenix shaped eyes slightly narrowed as his thin lips raised, overflowing with what seemed to be a cold smile that was not a smile.
When Wei Wei arrived, what she saw was this scene.
What kind of a time was this, yet this person actually could still form a smile. In addition, the expression on his face didn’t show the slightest amount of fluctuation and seemed as if everything all around hadn’t ever mattered to him.
The Third Prince was indeed as the rumors made him to be. Nothing could break that innate gracefulness that emanated from his body.
Even if the current situation was very unfavorable for them!
Wei Wei moved her gaze away from Baili Jia Jue’s body to look towards the front.
The sound of horses’ hooves suddenly stopped, because they’d already arrived at the door to the inn.
Wei Wei lifted her hand and just got ready to meet the attack when she was forcefully dragged by Baili Jia Jue into his embrace. His expression was unmoved as he placed her protectively behind him.
Wei Wei blanked out for a bit. Momentarily, a kind of a vague feeling formed in her heart.
“Kill!”
A general entirely covered in armor loudly commanded. The inn, which wasn’t very large to begin with, in a flash, was solidly surrounded by armored cavalry like it was being flooded with tidewater.
Thousands of foot soldiers also encircled the area at the same time. Three layers of people in three 500 meter sections.
Even if the people within the inn were to grow wings, they still wouldn’t be able to fly out. Killing intent enveloped the entire sky. The situation could escalate at any time.
The situation on this day was apparently a killing encirclement that was already well planned at an earlier time. The enemy’s intent was obvious. They absolutely did not intend for Baili Jia Jue to return to the capital alive!
“Heh….”
Within the densely crisscrossed killing auras, Wei Wei very clearly heard the man standing by her laugh.
Only, killing intent was clearly contained within that laughter.
Within merely the time of a blink, the soldiers originally surrounding them fell down row after row and seemed as if they were trees in a forest devastated by a windstorm. Not a single soldier who approached them was able to escape.
Wei Wei’s hair couldn’t help but stand on ends.
Such a terrifying attack power was also something that only Third Prince could achieve.
Reportedly, he was a gold ranked tenth level!”
“Start by attacking the girl at his side.” A black clothed person yelled from afar. It could clearly be seen that he should be those people’s leader. There were still some who were a bit intelligent.
Only, they miscalculated a bit, and that was because the girl they wanted to attack simply wasn’t some kind of weak female!
