The arrow shot towards the thin figure on the city wall, like a poisonous snake spitting out stars, carrying the murderous aura of Omi Makino, trying to kill Ling'er with one blow.
The people around panicked when they saw this scene, and shouted, "Protect the master."
But the arrow was shot by Omi Muye with great force, and the speed was so fast that no one had any room to react. In just a few seconds, when everyone reacted, they only felt a black shadow flashing past their eyes.
"master!"
With a "puff", the arrow had already pierced Ling'er's heart.
Ling'er didn't dodge or evade, but just smiled quietly, ignoring the tension and worry of everyone around her, and watched the arrow pierce her heart.
It seemed like a long wait. Clearly, blood had already flowed out from the wound, but she didn't seem to feel any pain at all. On her face, there was a relieved smile, as if it was her long-awaited wish that had finally come true.
This scene naturally fell into Feng Ling's eyes not far away. Although he knew that it was just an ordinary arrow and could not endanger his master's life at all, he still broke into a cold sweat. His originally stretched palm clenched subconsciously without knowing when, and his heartbeat also accelerated at the same time.
This is how to take out the amulet, it hurts the heart.
Because the heart is the most important organ in the human body, as long as the heart is threatened, the power of the amulet will be activated, thus giving up the power hidden in the master's Dantian and emerging.
This amulet contains the consciousness of the previous king, so it can emerge or hide on its own. As long as the amulet emerges, the master can take it out with his own strength.
He didn't know whether his decision to tell his master how to get the amulet was right or wrong, but in that situation, his master was willing to die, so he had no choice. At this point, he could only do his best to protect his master, and then take it one step at a time.
That's right, in fact, Ling'er deliberately angered Omi Makino along the way. In addition to making him fall into the trap, another purpose was to take out the amulet. She had already calculated that Omi Makino would launch a sneak attack on her.
When Feng Ling told her this method, she wanted to do it herself, but... in the end she couldn't do it. Later she decided to use Omi Makino. After Omi Makino hurt her, it would also anger the soldiers of Tianze. In this way, when the two sides fight, the soldiers of Tianze can also fight in one go. The last reason is that she hopes to see Di Shitian feel sorry for her...
When she realized she had this idea, Ling'er was shocked. When did she become so childish
But even though she felt that the current self was not like herself at all, she still did it.
Enduring the pain in his heart, he looked around, but he didn't even see the shadow of Emperor Shi Tian.
The cunning purple eyes just now were instantly filled with deep loneliness. Aren't you disappointed? That's fake.
In the past, no matter where she was, whenever she encountered an emergency, Emperor Shi Tian would always rush to her side to save her. But now, even though they were so close, in the same city, she couldn't see that familiar figure.
But even so, she still forcibly tore the amulet out of her body.
Her father's seal was indeed very powerful, because she clearly felt the pain when taking out the amulet, which was only a penny compared to the previous arrow wound.
Just when Ling'er was distracted, Omi Makino unexpectedly launched a second sneak attack. If the last time he was furious and unprepared, this time he was determined to kill Ling'er.
Because he had specially coated the arrow with poison, which was brought from the upper world and could not be cured by people in this world. Moreover, it was fatal if it hit Ling'er, so if it could hit her, she would be dead for sure.
The worst thing is that now everyone's attention is on Ling'er's injury, and even Feng Ling did not notice Omi Makino's actions.
By the time someone noticed it, it was too late.
"Master, be careful!"
Yes, she heard it, she clearly heard Feng Ling's cry. But she couldn't do anything. The moment the amulet left her body, the unspeakable pain drained all her strength in an instant. At this moment, she really couldn't even move.
Watching the poisonous arrow coming towards her getting closer and closer, she tried hard to mobilize the spiritual power around her, but there was no way, she really had no idea what to do.
"master!"
Just when Ling'er thought she was going to die this time, she suddenly felt her shoulders sink, and then she was protected by a pair of strong hands and turned to the side.
The poison arrow grazed her sleeve and fell to the ground.
Familiar taste, familiar embrace.
day by day!
It's every day.
Ling'er shouted with joy in her heart. She had just experienced a life-and-death experience, but she did not have time to feel scared. Instead, she felt happy because of the owner of these hands.
She knew Tiantian would definitely come. How could he leave her alone in such a dangerous place? Sure enough, he was still worried, and sure enough, he came.
The loneliness on her face was swept away, replaced by a bright face, and she turned her head with a smile on her face to look at Di Shitian. But what she saw was an extremely cold face.
With his exquisitely carved features and stunning appearance, Ling'er knew that this man was of high quality from the moment she saw Di Shi Tian for the first time. After spending time with him, she also reaffirmed her perception.
His looks were comparable to his abilities, but he had never before used such a cold gaze on her.
Not to mention, she was injured.
"I told you to leave!" The stiff tone, without a trace of pity or heartache, was like the howling north wind in the coldest days of winter, making Ling'er feel cold from head to toe in an instant.
Then, in an instant, he suddenly let go of Ling'er's body. She was caught off guard, her body suddenly lost its support, and she fell to the ground.
"Ah!" Ling'er didn't expect Di Shitian to let go suddenly. When she fell to the ground, her hands subconsciously supported her, so she scraped her skin. She cried out in pain.
She was a very strong person, and such a small injury was nothing to her. But because Emperor Shi Tian was there, she subconsciously didn't want to endure it.
This is also a habit I developed after being with Di Shi Tian for so long.
Feng Ling was extremely angry when he saw this scene.
This abominable Di Shitian, his master was out there trying to protect his kingdom, even hurting herself to take out the amulet from her body, and he treated her like this! Does he still have a conscience
If it weren't for his master's consideration, he would have wanted to rush out and beat him up right away.
Damn man!
In fact, no one noticed that when Ling'er uttered that painful groan, Di Shitian's body stiffened for a moment.
But it only took a moment for him to return to his original state.
"Come, take her away." Emperor Shitian stood with his back to Ling'er and ordered the general under him.
Ling'er fell to the ground, looking at the proud back of Di Shitian, feeling unprecedented sorrow.
If you have never had something, you will not feel lost. But if you have had it and then lost it in an instant, the loss and sadness cannot be expressed in a few words.
After hearing Emperor Shitian's order, the soldiers looked at each other, and no one was willing to step forward to accept the task. Because everything Ling'er did here was seen by their own eyes. Since this woman came here, she has been helping them wholeheartedly. And her strategy is also recognized by everyone. They are really embarrassed to treat such a meritorious minister like this.
The king was not like this before. I don’t know what happened this time.
Finally, a general came out to save the situation.
"Yes." Although he felt that this was very bad, the king's orders were hard to disobey. He couldn't just watch everyone being punished for disobeying the king's orders.
"Miss, I'm sorry." He walked up to Ling'er, whispered something to her, and then waved to the two soldiers.
"No, I can walk by myself." After all this, Ling'er's previous strength had almost recovered. Before the two soldiers came over, she stood up and walked downstairs. When she passed by Di Shitian, she turned her wrist and released a golden light into Di Shitian's body.
Except Feng Ling, no one noticed Ling Er's action. Only Feng Ling knew that her master finally gave the amulet to that man.
The scene upstairs fell into Jinjiang Muye's eyes. Seeing Ling'er being chased away by Emperor Shitian in a mess, he felt happy and relieved. He felt happy because the anger he had suffered because of Ling'er was relieved, and he was relieved that Emperor Shitian had lost another powerful general. At the same time, he was secretly mocking his blindness. He actually treated such a pearl like this. He felt sorry for that woman.
"Emperor Shi Tian, you finally dare to come out, right?" The fox eyes narrowed slightly, and an evil arc appeared at the corners of his mouth, with that kind of bad intentions completely written on his face.
Although he felt a little regretful for not killing that woman, so what? Her current fate was still miserable. If he was not mistaken, that woman should have feelings for Emperor Shi Tian. So, what Emperor Shi Tian did to her, for her, might be more painful than killing her.
In a sense, the woman had already been subjected to the most brutal punishment, so he was relieved. And now all that was left was Emperor Shi Tian, the man he had hated for more than a decade!
Moreover, he knew clearly that today was the day when Emperor Shi Tian would die.
Faced with Omi Makino's provocation, Di Shitian didn't even look at him.
This kind of contempt instantly aroused Omi Makino's murderous intent.
"Emperor Shitian, I want to see how long you can be so proud." After he finished speaking, the smile on the corner of his mouth turned bloodthirsty. He raised one arm high and suddenly dropped it down.
"Attack the city!"
“Go!”
“Kill!”
The enemy rushed towards the city gate with swords and spears. The soldiers at the front were all carrying ladders.
Seeing this, Tianze soldiers immediately shot thousands of arrows at the enemy.
The enemy troops climbing up the ladders were killed one after another. The distance to the city tower was getting closer and closer. The newly repaired city gate had cracks under the bombardment of the catapults.
Although the coalition forces' strength had been reduced one after another, their numbers were still several times that of Tianze.
Under this general trend, Tianze’s city gate was about to be unable to be defended.
Looking at the Thirteen Prefectures of Yanglin that were about to be conquered, Omi Makino's face was filled with satisfaction.
"Emperor Shitian, you are finished. As long as I, Omi Muye, am here, today will be the day you die."
"Really? I really want to try it." On the city wall, Emperor Shi Tian was wearing armor, his whole body bathed in a golden light, so bright that people dared not look directly at it.
The wind blew strongly, silver hair fluttered, and a heroic momentum was released in an instant, sweeping across the entire battlefield.
"Then come on, today I, Omi Muye, will chop off your head, Emperor Shitian, myself!"
In the Prince Yun's Mansion of Feng Kingdom, ever since Shangguan Yunxiao led his troops to war, everyone in the mansion has completely lost any news of their prince.
In the past, the third son, Wang Ziwei, was the one who pleased the prince the most, so after the prince left, the power of management naturally fell into his hands. This is the reason why the saying goes that when there is no tiger in the mountain, the monkey will become the king.
There is more than one young master in this backyard, so one can imagine what will happen during the time when the prince is away.
There are carved beams and painted pillars, and winding paths lead to secluded places. Looking along the path, I saw a man in white leaning against the railing to feed fish. From a distance, the man's posture is elegant and his movements are neat, and he seems to be in a good mood. But after seeing his face clearly, the worry in his eyebrows and eyes expresses his troubles.
The prince had been gone for a long time, but he had not brought back any news. The last time I heard from the prince was when he returned to the court after a great victory over Tianqi. But according to the date, the prince should have returned long ago.
I don’t know what happened to the prince that made him take so long to return.
His mood at the moment could be said to be complicated. He should hate this woman. If it weren't for her, she wouldn't have been sent to this country where women are respected, and even become a bed warmer. But why was he still worried about her
He was originally the crown prince of Dayue, but was framed by his younger brother Omi Makino for treason and was deposed and imprisoned in the cold palace. Later, when the new emperor ascended the throne, he was sent to Feng, a country stronger than Dayue, as a gift for peace, and was later given to Shangguan Yunxiao. Omi Makino chose to send him here because he knew that Prince Yun loved beautiful women.
He was disheartened at that time, especially after knowing what Shangguan Yunxiao had done, he felt that staying in Prince Yun's Mansion was a shame for him.
When he first came, he wanted to die several times, but was stopped by the prince. He remembered what the prince said to him at that time: "You want to die, right? Then die. If you die, there will be nothing left. You will only be left with the word 'coward'."
Although he really hated her at that time, he knew that she was right. If he died, there would be nothing left. From that time on, his opinion of this prince changed a little bit.
Maybe she is different from what the outside world says. Maybe it is just a disguise, a disguise for self-protection. How many people in the royal family don't have some privacy
Just like him, if he had not been too aggressive and completely defenseless against his relatives, how could he have ended up like this.
Since then, he has changed. Although the prince came to his room every day, he just teased him and tortured him, and never really did anything to him. Slowly, he also figured out the prince's character. As long as he went along with her, she would not do anything.
He never asked the prince why she didn't touch him, because he knew that everyone had their own difficulties. If the prince wanted to talk, she would tell him sooner or later. And all he could do was to cooperate with her and obey her, and try his best to make his life in this place easier.
Because he knows that only by being alive can there be hope.
During the time he spent with the prince, he also discovered that the queen seemed to dote on him, but she never cared about his reputation. Instead, she indulged him blindly and went along with him no matter what he wanted to do, and even had the intention of aiding and abetting him.
Later, he gradually realized that the prince's situation was not much better than his own.
Maybe the reason why she became like this is because of this environment.
If the prince's previous absurdity had made Her Majesty on guard, then his recent behavior was...
In addition, since they had won the battle this time, he was really worried that the Queen would attack the Prince directly.
But he never understood why the prince suddenly changed. Moreover, the prince had changed, and even he didn't recognize him. Before, when the prince was with him in private, he was like a frivolous gangster, with evil eyes, and no majesty. But after the prince came back last time, he changed completely. That kind of kingly demeanor was simply innate.
He had always thought that it was unnecessary for the Queen to be so wary of the Prince. She was just an uneducated woman. Or maybe there was some secret in the Prince, so the Queen had been on guard against her for so many years.
But no one expected that the prince was actually the Queen’s biological daughter, and she was directly promoted from a prince to a princess.
But this made him even more confused. Since she was his biological daughter, why did he destroy her like this
Although he has always been in the prince's mansion, he also knows something about what goes on in the court.
Due to the prince's sudden change and the victory, the prince's reputation and prestige have been renewed in the hearts of the people, and even some old ministers are willing to stand on the prince's side.
If this happens, the Queen will definitely take action.
The recent situation seems a little strange. Her Majesty has not attended the morning court for many days. Rumor has it that she is ill, so she is closed to visitors. But what is the illness that she is not seeing anyone.
What surprised him even more was that the ministers in the court, including the prime minister and the generals, were not worried because the empress did not attend the court. Instead, they stayed in their houses behind closed doors and refused to see anyone.
But why should he worry about that woman
"Your Excellency, the Third Young Master, the Eldest Young Master has had a headache again. His servant is here to report this, please come over and take a look." The servant's voice interrupted his wandering thoughts.
"Have you called the doctor?" I thought the mansion would be quiet for a while after the prince left. But I never thought there would be more things to do. Either there were thieves or there were illnesses. I was really exhausted.
It seems that now that the prince is gone, many people can no longer hold back and want to take action.
"I have already invited him."
The eldest son Lan Ling has had a headache since he entered the mansion, and cannot stand stimulation. He had consulted a doctor before, and he was told that he had a head injury before, and there was blood stasis inside, which was the cause of this. However, because the blood stasis was located in a sensitive part of the head, it could not be eliminated with medication or other means. He could only use medication to temporarily relieve the pain every time he had a headache, but there was no cure.
But he doesn’t know what’s wrong, his headaches have become more frequent recently.
Could it be that he was also worried about the prince
Oh.
Think about it, how is it possible? Among the three princes, he is the one who dislikes the prince the most.
"Let's go, I'll go take a look." He put down the fish food in his hand, flicked his collar, then turned and walked towards Lan Ling's residence.
"Oh, it hurts. Oh, it hurts. My head, Yaer... ah... it hurts... my head... my head feels... it feels like it's going to explode... my head... ah ah..." Lan Ling lay on the bed, holding his head tightly with both hands, struggling constantly. Because of the excessive pain, beads of sweat had already appeared on his forehead. The expression on his face was distorted, showing that he was really in pain at the moment.
Ya'er listened to her master's cries of pain and became as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.
"Young Master, Young Master, what should we do? Young Master, please bear with it for a while. The doctor is on the way. Young Master, please bear with it for a while. If you really can't bear the pain, then just beat Yaer up." Yaer looked at the young master who was in so much pain on the bed and tears came out of her eyes in anxiety.
The young master was not in good health to begin with. I must have not taken good care of him. Otherwise, how could he become like this? The young master's headaches were not this severe before. What happened this time? He had taken medicine but it didn't work at all.
“Yaer… Yaer… It hurts so much… It hurts so much… Please… please… knock me out… I really… I really can’t stand the pain anymore… Ahhh…” Lan Ling said as he suddenly sat up and banged his head against the wall.
"Master! You can't bump into me!" After realizing Lan Ling's intention, Ya'er immediately stood up and tried to stop him, but it was too late.
With a loud "bang", Lan Ling hit his head against the wall and then fainted.
"Young Master! Young Master!" Ya'er quickly pulled Lan Ling into her arms and checked his head injury. It looked serious, and there was blood. She shook Lan Ling's body and kept calling him, but Lan Ling had completely fainted.
This was the scene Wang Ziwei saw when she arrived.
"What happened?" Looking at the mess in the room, he immediately asked.
"To answer the Third Young Master, our Young Master couldn't stand the headache and knocked himself unconscious." Ya'er said, looking at her own Young Master with heartache. The Young Master already had blood clots in his brain, and it would be better if nothing else happened after the collision.
"Hurry up and help him to the bed."
"Yes, yes."
Seeing the situation, the servant behind Wang Ziwei also stepped forward to lend a hand, and together with Yaer, they helped Lan Ling to the bed.
Lan Ling didn't know how long he had slept, he just felt like his brain was on fire, so hot and painful. Some fragmented memories kept flashing by, like edited movie clips, constantly emerging in his mind.
In a paradise-like place, he vaguely saw a group of men in black. The image was blurry at first, but slowly, it became clearer. He saw them constantly training, assassination, escape, concealment, tracking, anti-tracking, all the skills to survive. Although it was the first time he saw them, he felt as if he had known them for a long time. He knew that since the day they were brought back by their master, they had been constantly challenging themselves, constantly improving themselves, and completing every mission excellently, which became their lifelong mission.
There were two people standing in front of them. One was extraordinary, emitting the aura of a king. But his face was not clear because he was wearing a silver mask. The other had his back to him, and seemed to be reporting the training results to the masked man.
It's strange, how did he know, he was reporting the results of the training.
I don't know why, but I always feel that the figure of the man with his back to him seems to have been seen somewhere before.
They had finished talking, and he seemed to be turning around. Yes, he turned around.
The moment he saw the man's face, he was shocked. The man looked exactly like him.
No, to be precise, it was actually him!
