The villain's pet apprentice sister is not to be trifled with
Chapter 227: Those who cross the boundary will die
When the palace was in turmoil, Nangong Chiyang had already arrived at the villa where everyone was hiding secretly.
At first, even though Nangong Chiyang was holding the emperor's edict and had the support of the imperial guards, there were still some people who were suspicious and refused to follow Nangong Chiyang, and some even spoke ill of him.
A woman holding a child said, "In the past, His Majesty always came to talk to us in person, why is it you today?"
Another old woman curled her lips and murmured, "We heard that the current emperor hates you, the eldest prince, the most!"
A middle-aged man pointed at Nangong Chiyang and said, "Why didn't His Majesty make you the crown prince? I'm afraid you can't compare to the current crown prince!"
"Everyone, be careful. He came here in a hurry and wants to take us away with just a few words. Who knows what the eldest prince is up to!"
"That's right, maybe he is the one who is going to rebel!"
The imperial guards wanted to step forward and teach those who spoke rudely a lesson, but were stopped by Nangong Chiyang.
After spending so much time with his junior sister, Nangong Chiyang learned a lesson, which is not to argue with people who have different beliefs.
Of course, he is a prince, so his words are more elegant. Junior sister's original words were, you can't reason with an idiot.
Nangong Chiyang ordered the imperial guards to lead most of the people who were willing to follow to leave the place first.
There is a secret passage in this house, a suspension bridge at the front door connecting to another mountain, and a cliff a few meters away from the back door.
Nangong Chiyang thought for a moment. If they took the secret passage, with so many people, they would have to form a very long queue, and it might be difficult for the people in front and behind to communicate with each other in time.
There are children among the crowd, and it is not appropriate to go through the cliff through the back door, which is very dangerous. Therefore, the only way is to cross the bridge.
Nangong Chiyang ordered the imperial guards to clear the way for everyone, and he was responsible for providing protection from behind.
Those who were unwilling to believe Nangong Chiyang were still complacent, thinking that those who followed the eldest prince were asking for trouble.
It was not until a group of martial arts masters and secret guards under the prince's command climbed up the cliff and mercilessly shot the people with poisonous arrows that those who had made sarcastic remarks realized the seriousness of the matter.
"Crown Prince, help... help!" The sharp sword pierced through the shoulder of the middle-aged woman who had just mocked Nangong Chiyang.
She cried out in unbearable pain.
She was holding a young child in her arms. When the child saw his mother screaming and bleeding, he started crying loudly in fear.
Nangong Chiyang turned around when he heard the sound and saw the dozen or so people left behind were running away frantically with their heads in their hands. Without hesitation, he rushed forward to rescue them.
When the secret guard saw Nangong Chiyang, he aimed the arrow at Nangong Chiyang.
The prince said that if he saw the eldest prince here, he would kill him.
Nangong Chiyang used his spiritual power to protect his body and easily blocked the arrow. He used both hands to open the sword case, took out two long swords from the sword case and held them in his palms.
The next moment, Nangong Chiyang swung out a sword energy mixed with red and dark green flames.
The arrow was cut by the sword energy, broken into several pieces, and melted into ashes by the flames.
The woman's face was dark. She held her child and handed it to Nangong Chiyang.
She knew that she would not live long, so she entrusted her child to the eldest prince, who was willing to turn back and save her and her child despite her slander.
She murmured, "I'm...I'm sorry."
Nangong Chiyang helped the woman up with a warm spiritual power and pushed a pill into her mouth.
The woman, who had been limp all over, now regained some strength.
Fortunately, she was the only one injured.
The others were not hit by arrows, but they were all very frightened.
Everyone looked at Nangong Chiyang with guilt in their eyes, but more of it was utmost respect.
"Go toward the front door, where the imperial guards will be waiting for you." After Nangong Chiyang finished speaking, he stood in front of the crowd and drew an invisible sword net with his two swords, separating the group of black-clad secret guards outside a door.
Nangong Chiyang's cold voice spread throughout the entire house, "Anyone who crosses the boundary will die."
Upon hearing this, all the men in black looked at their leader.
The leader was also hesitant. After all, this concerned the life and death of his brothers. But if they did not take action, the prince would blame them, which would be very troublesome.
At this time, one of the men in black said, "Brothers, we are friends who have been through life and death together. Let me say this. I think the current situation is very clear. The eldest prince has the upper hand because he is popular.
And, obviously, we can't really beat him.
The fact that he didn't kill us shows that he is a kind-hearted and benevolent person.
The prince threatened us with our relatives and families, forcing us to die, but now we are not unwilling to take action. It means we can't win.
Why not just lie down and rest for a while and see what happens.
I'm out of breath after climbing the cliff for so long."
His words almost expressed the thoughts of all the secret guards.
Then, someone echoed, "Chief, I think what Brother Long said is right!"
"Yes, I was clearly aiming at one of them's heart just now. I saw the arrow turn and hit the wall by itself. Your Highness, you should not be underestimated!"
Long Xingyun, who has kept his achievements and fame hidden, smiled slightly beneath his mask.
The leader thought for a moment and nodded, "Tian Xing is right! Let's not act rashly for now, let's rest here for a while."
Long Xingyun sighed quietly and reported in real time on the voice transmission token, "Junior Sister Si, I have finished everything you asked me to do and say. It works!
My squad really gave up resistance and rested on the spot."
Si Qingyu said, "Hmm," "You stabilize the situation over there first, we'll be there soon."
Originally, Long Xingyun planned to expose his vest and draw his sword to fight them head-on, but Si Qingyu didn't let him, so he simply followed Si Qingyu's script.
The senior brothers said, you just need to listen to Junior Sister Si, you won’t go wrong!
Nangong Chiyang walked out of the house from the front door and saw that all the people had crossed the bridge safely. However, there was no relief on his face.
Because the prince held the queen hostage, and with hundreds of soldiers and horses, he stood on the east and west sides of the bridge with the imperial guards and Nangong Yanyan's elite troops who had just arrived.
Nangong Zhurong pressed a dagger flashing with a cold light against the queen's neck and looked at Nangong Chiyang across the bridge with a smug smile.
The queen looked at Nangong Chiyang, and her originally weak and gloomy face instantly showed an expression of emotion.
"Yang'er, it's really you..."
Nangong Zhurong took a deep breath, as if stimulated by the Queen's call, and the knife against the Queen's neck sank a little deeper into her skin.
Upon seeing this, Nangong Chiyang made a sword gesture and flew towards the prince.
However, a faint black halo flashed around the prince's body, blocking the sword energy.
Nangong Chiyang frowned slightly. It turned out to be a protective formation. Even his Nascent Soul stage spiritual power was unable to break through it.
The prince smiled and said, "Nangong Chiyang, my dear brother, let me guess, do you want yourself to be alive more, or for your mother who you think about day and night to be alive?"
