"boom!"
A huge iron fist smashed on the thick stone door again.
The fist shone like a hammer, and the stone gate shook.
The red barrier condensed on the stone gate also trembled suddenly.
The one standing at the door and swinging his fist was a white-haired old man. Judging from the aura of his punches, he was at least in the late stage of the Great Martial Master.
Behind him stood another short old man holding an iron sword.
There were also three other men in black robes standing behind the two men.
"Master Lei, let me give it a try."
The old man holding the iron sword suddenly took a step forward, and the iron sword in his hand flashed a yellow sword light.
The old man with his fist clenched took a step back and sneered at the inside: "My two princesses, if you open the door and come out obediently, I can spare your lives. If you continue to be stubborn, once this stone gate of the barrier is broken, I will make you two sisters wish you were dead!"
"boom!"
The dazzling sword light slashed towards the barrier on the stone gate.
At this time, the two sisters hiding behind the stone gate clasped their hands tightly together, their faces pale.
In front of the two of them, the injured Aunt Mu was holding a jade ruyi and pressing against the stone door in front of her.
The jade ruyi emitted a red light, enveloping the entire stone door.
But it looked like she couldn't hold on for much longer.
Suddenly there was a loud noise.
The sharp sword light slashed down on the barrier outside the door, and the red barrier suddenly wailed and shattered.
The jade ruyi in Aunt Mu's hand also broke into several pieces with a "crack".
She shuddered, staggered back a few steps, and stood in front of the two sisters. Her face was pale and desperate, and she asked in a trembling voice, "Miss, have you notified them?"
Nangong Meijiao had an unsightly expression on his face. He tightly grasped his whip in one hand and shook his head.
"Bang!"
A loud bang!
The thick stone door suddenly split in two and fell down heavily.
The three people in the stone chamber all trembled and clenched their weapons.
"Humph! Keep hiding? Why don't you hide anymore?"
The old man, with his fist still gleaming, looked at the three people in the stone chamber with a grim smile on his face. After making sure there was no ambush, he was about to step in when the old man with the sword suddenly shouted from behind: "Be careful!"
"boom!"
A golden fist light instantly appeared in front of him, and before he could react, it hit his chest heavily!
The protective wind and light shield on his body were so vulnerable that they shattered in an instant!
He was knocked flying and hit the wall next to him heavily. His chest was dented and a large amount of blood spurted out of his mouth.
The sword-wielding old man standing behind him was so frightened that he just swung the heavy iron sword in his hand when a figure suddenly appeared in front of him and grabbed his neck. Then a golden fist shrank in his child's hole and with a "bang", it directly hit his head and exploded it, turning it into a puff of blood mist!
A master in the late stage of the great martial arts world, he didn't even have time to use a single move, his head was smashed in an instant, and he died!
Even his soul was turned into ashes by this punch!
Because the incident happened so quickly, the other three men in black robes didn't react until this moment!
However, before they could even see the attacker's face and figure, their heads were instantly cut off by a flying sword that appeared out of nowhere!
The flying sword carried a purple arc of electricity, which destroyed their souls the moment it chopped off their heads!
The three headless corpses spurted blood, stood there blankly for a while, and then fell straight to the ground.
At this time, the sneak attack figure stopped at the door and became clear.
The three people in the room looked at him, and after a moment of stunned silence, they came to their senses.
Nangong Meijiao ran out crying and hugged him.
Luo Qingzhou held her in his arms, stroked her hair gently, and looked at the old man who was smashed into the wall.
The old man's chest collapsed, but he was not dead. He was struggling and twisting his body, trying to get out of the stone wall.
Luo Qingzhou let go of the girl in his arms, turned around, grabbed the old man's neck, and pulled him out of the stone wall.
The old man was shaking with pain all over. He suddenly stretched out his right hand, took out a sharp dagger, and stabbed it directly into his chest!
However, Luo Qingzhou's hand that was pinching his neck only tightened slightly, and he suddenly went limp all over. The dagger in his hand fell to the ground with a clang, and his outstretched arm also fell down weakly.
"Huh..."
He opened his mouth weakly and let out a hoarse and unpleasant sound.
Luo Qingzhou opened his other hand with five fingers, and the dagger on the ground flew into his hand in an instant. Then, with a flash of cold light, he cut off one of his ears with one knife. He stared at Tong Kong and asked, "Who sent you here?"
The old man was shaking with pain, his eyes glaring at him.
"laugh!"
The dagger in Luo Qingzhou's hand suddenly stabbed into his eyes, and with a flick of his wrist, he gouged out his eyeballs.
"ah-"
The old man suddenly let out a shrill scream.
Luo Qingzhou asked again: "Which sect are you from? Why did you come to massacre the Southern Kingdom Prince's Mansion? Are there others? Where are they?"
After saying that, he paused, and with a "puff" sound, the dagger in his hand stabbed into his other eye.
The old man screamed again, "You little bastard! I will bury your whole family with you! All of that woman's lackeys will die a miserable death! You... um..."
Before he could finish speaking, the dagger in Luo Qingzhou's hand stabbed directly into his mouth and pierced his throat!
Then he pulled it hard, cutting his entire cheek and neck in half!
"Bang!"
Another punch, lightning flashed, and directly turned him into a cloud of bloody mist!
The murderous aura on Luo Qingzhou slowly dissipated. He turned around and looked at the three people at the door. His heart felt heavy and hesitant, not knowing how to start.
Nangong Xueyi cried, "Master Chu, where are my father and mother? You are so powerful, can you help us save them?"
Luo Qingzhou clenched his fists and remained silent.
Nangong Meijiao's face suddenly turned pale and her body began to tremble slightly.
"Let's go, let's go up first."
Luo Qingzhou turned around and walked in front.
The three of them followed behind with dazed looks.
When they came out of the underground secret room, the palace guards and royal guards arrived.
In front of the corpses all over the ground, Nangong Huoyue in a fiery red dress was standing there. Her face was pale and the red dress on her body fluttered in anger like a burning flame.
Not far away, Princess Bai Ruoshui was holding the body of the Prince of Southern Kingdom and crying softly.
The only three guards left in the mansion knelt beside her, covered in blood.
Looking at the scene before them, the two princesses of the Southern Prince's Mansion were frozen in place, unable to move.
After a long time, they walked over in a daze and knelt on the ground.
Luo Qingzhou stood in the corridor, watching the scene silently.
Nangong Huoyue suddenly sighed and said, "It was my fault... I knew clearly that they would not give up... I knew clearly that whoever helped me would be retaliated... Uncle Wang has been helping me contact and persuade other princes these days. Those people must have panicked... I shouldn't have been careless..."
She clenched her fists, her red skirt fluttering: "I just didn't expect that they would dare to do that in the inner city..."
Luo Qingzhou suddenly said, "It was Lan Ling from the Piao Miao Immortal Sect. She used the possession technique to bring people here."
Nangong Huoyue was startled and looked at him.
Luo Qingzhou was silent for a moment, and said: "Someone told me that after your majesty ascended the throne, he harmed their interests, so she would retaliate against your majesty, and even collude with other forces in Da Yan. The Prince of the Southern Kingdom may be just the first one."
Then he added: "Your Majesty is right. Whoever helps you will be retaliated against."
Nangong Huoyue's eyes flashed with coldness, and he heard him say: "But... if you want to change the world, there must be bloodshed and sacrifice. Your Majesty, since you have come to this step, then what is there to be afraid of? As long as your Majesty is wholeheartedly for the people and for Da Yan with a pure heart, then all the conscientious and passionate people in Da Yan will be your strongest backing!"
Nangong Huoyue looked at him quietly, and after a while, she said, "You too?"
Luo Qingzhou met her gaze and slowly clenched his fists in his sleeves: "Yes."
Nangong Huoyue looked at the crying princess and the body in the princess's arms. After a moment of silence, she said, "Chu Feiyang, come to me tomorrow night. I have something to tell you."
Luo Qingzhou said: "Yes."
"Moon Dance."
Nangong Huoyue's tone was emotionless: "Go, get them all out and find out the identities of these people. Within three days, I want to know where they are from. Also, there's no need to keep those spies in Kyoto, kill them all."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Yuewu agreed and left quickly.
The expression on Nangong Huoyue's face became even colder.
She raised her head slightly and looked into the deep night sky.
After a long time.
She walked to the corpse of the Southern Prince, looked at it silently for a moment, and said, "Mei Jiao, take your mother and sister to live in the palace. I swear, I will help you get revenge."
After a pause, she added: "He will help you too."
Luo Qingzhou walked towards the door.
She suddenly asked, "Where are you going?"
Luo Qingzhou said: "Go home."
Nangong Huoyue turned around, looked at him and said, "Let them move into the palace as well."
Then, she murmured, "Of course, maybe they don't have to..."
Luo Qingzhou said nothing more and left quickly.
After leaving the Southern Prince's Mansion, he stopped at the door and stood there for a while. Then he clenched his fists, a hint of blood gradually welled up in his eyes, and walked directly towards the direction of the Founding Marquis' Mansion.
Just now, before the old man died, he revealed that some of them and others were hiding in the Mansion of the Founding Marquis.
No matter what evidence, what influence, or what consequences, it doesn’t matter anymore.
The Southern Prince's Mansion was massacred tonight, so no one in his Founding Marquis' Mansion will survive!
Let's all be buried together!
