Chapter 137 Assassination
The emperor glared at the men in black who surrounded him.
"……………………"
Judging from the current situation, these people are obviously coming for him and Chen'er.
If anything happens to them father and son today, the Shang Kingdom will be in chaos.
Thinking of this, he pulled back Shang Zhanchen who was blocking his way, his tone also urgent.
"Chen'er, go away!"
Looking at the current situation, by the time the Imperial Guards come to rescue, his and Chen'er's lives would have been in danger.
In order to keep the Shang Kingdom in peace, he thought of letting Chen'er go first, after all, he knows martial arts.
With his ability, it won't be too difficult for him to get out in the future.
“……………………”Shang Zhanchen felt warm in his heart.
He glanced at his father. It was said that the imperial family was the most ruthless, but he did not think so.
He was born in this cruel palace, yet he felt the deep love of his father.
His father has loved him since he was a child, and this love has never changed. Now, at this critical moment of life and death, he has left the hope of life to him.
At this moment, he felt indescribably moved. Looking at the men in black who were surrounding him, he once again protected his father behind him.
"Your Majesty, don't worry. They are just a few little guys. I can handle them myself."
Upon hearing what the prince said, the leading man in black laughed wildly.
“Hahahaha… Your Highness is so arrogant. We are known as the Twelve Ghosts in Jianghu, and we have never failed. Today we are here to take your head!”
As soon as he finished speaking, a ruthless look flashed in the man's eyes, and he swung the big knife in his hand directly.
"Chen'er, be careful!" The emperor was shocked.
Just when he was about to pull Shang Zhanchen behind him again, his hand missed and then he saw something that made him unbelievable.
Chen'er, who was standing in front of him just now, instantly turned into a shadow and flashed in front of the eleven ghosts.
Immediately afterwards, painful groans were heard, and before the emperor could see what was happening.
I saw the men in black who were surrounding me just now fell to the ground, twisting their bodies in pain.
After a while, they stopped groaning in pain and lay straight on the ground.
“This……………………” The leading man in black was shocked.
The brothers were staring at the ground in disbelief, their minds still not recovering from the shock.
How did they fall? He obviously didn't see anything, his eyes were looking at Shang Zhanchen.
There was unconcealable fear in his eyes.
"……………………"
Wasn’t it said that the deposed crown prince was poisoned and his internal energy was almost exhausted?
But why doesn't he look like he's poisoned? Moreover, his internal strength is so profound, which they have never seen before.
Looking at the stunned man in black in front of him, Shang Zhanchen exuded a captivating murderous aura.
"Tell me, who instructed you?"
He took a step forward and stared at the man in black in front of him with a cold gaze, like a devil from hell.
"Take money from others and help them get rid of disasters." Although the man in black was frightened, he also glared at Shang Zhanchen.
As soon as he finished speaking, he quickly took two steps back and waved to the other men in black.
More than twenty black men surrounded them in an instant, but they had not yet raised their knives.
Shang Zhanchen once again transformed into a shadow, shuttling among the men in black.
The palm wind from the tenth level of internal strength instantly beat the black people into pieces.
There was no chance to even let out a scream, blood and flesh splattered everywhere, and the strong smell of blood filled the air.
In fact, there was no need for him to use all his internal strength to deal with these small shrimps.
The reason why he acted so cruelly was not only to show it to those people, but also to vent his anger.
He wanted to release all the grievances and pains that had been accumulated in his heart for all these years, and he wanted to tell the world.
He, the prince, is about to awaken and will no longer be bullied by those petty people.
“……………………”Everyone was shocked.
Be it the emperor on the stage or the ministers below the stage, they all stared at Shang Zhanchen with horror.
They were so shocked that they couldn't close their mouths. Some even forgot to breathe. They stared at the prince on the stage like fools.
"……………………"
The prince is so scary!
Although everyone knew that the prince had practiced martial arts since he was a child, no one expected his kung fu to be so extraordinary.
They just saw a shadow, and then the black people were torn into pieces.
If I hadn't known that the person standing on the stage was the prince, I would have thought it was an evil ghost returning to the world of the living.
Even though he was so far away, one could still feel the murderous intent in the prince's eyes, which made people feel fearful.
Normally the prince seemed to be gentle, but I didn't expect that when he became ruthless, he would be so terrifying.
Even He Yuan was shocked like a fool.
"……………………"
This is impossible! Absolutely impossible!
How could a person who had been poisoned by two kinds of poisons have such powerful internal strength!
It stands to reason that he is now at the end of his strength and it is impossible for him to still have such profound internal strength.
Looking at Shang Zhanchen, who was exuding murderous aura on the stage, He Yuan was puzzled.
No wonder they were so shocked. Even Han Chun and Jiang You who were standing nearby were shocked.
Jiang You, in particular, opened his mouth in shock, just like the ministers in the audience.
"……………………"
The master is so awesome!
Although Han Chun had told him before that his master's internal strength had improved a lot after his health recovered.
But he didn't expect it to be so evil. Even though he was so close, he couldn't catch a glimpse of his master just now.
This also made him excited. The Crown Princess's pills were indeed very effective. If he had the chance in the future, he would definitely ask for one.
Seeing that the leading man in black was the only one left on the stage, Shang Zhanchen flashed up to him and grabbed his neck.
"Tell me, who asked you to do this assassination?"
His deep eyes stared straight at the man in black in front of him, and his voice was frighteningly cold.
The man in black, who had already been frightened, looked at Shang Zhanchen who was so close to him, with unconcealable fear in his eyes.
"I……………………"
But before he could finish his words, his whole body stiffened and a mouthful of thick, dark blood flowed out from the corner of his mouth.
His body went limp and he fell directly to the ground until he closed his eyes.
He was still staring at He Yuan in the audience, as if he had something to say, but he no longer had the chance and closed his eyes unwillingly.
Looking at the corpses and body parts on the stage, the emperor was still shocked.
"……………………"
I didn't expect Chen'er's kung fu has reached such a superb level.
When Shang Zhanchen turned around, he saw his father staring at him in a daze and coming to him respectfully.
"I'm sorry to have frightened my father." Then he looked at the royal guards who were walking up to the altar.
"Escort the emperor back to the palace first." Then he turned and looked at Jiang You and Han Chun.
"Go and investigate quickly, who is so bold?"
After saying that, he glanced at He Yuan who was secretly glancing at him from the audience, and met his cold gaze directly at him, which startled He Yuan.
"……………………"
The prince's eyes made him feel frightened, as if he could see through everything.
He quickly turned his head away, not daring to look at the prince.
