Everyone's eyes were focused on the battle in front of them. They were completely unaware of the sudden attack.
"Cut!"
Liu Muyun pulled out the Moonlight Sword and swung it. The moonlight was like a falling Milky Way, covering the cold light. But the cold light was too fast. It swept through the sky and grew larger in Ye Chen's eyes. The chill seeped into his bones.
Su Ming was also stunned. He did not expect that there would be an assassin hiding in the depths of the palace. Moreover, this person's concealment technique was so profound that he could avoid all detection. He waited for Ye Chen to let his guard down before he ruthlessly killed him.
On the opposite side, Fang Han was also surprised.
But if one looked carefully, they would find that there was a flash of pride in the depths of his eyes. But this flash was only for a moment and was not noticed by others.
Feeling the killing intent of the cold light, Ye Chen's mind suddenly became calm.
At this moment, he seemed to have entered a mysterious state. Everything around him was so clear. The monstrous purple flames, the misty moonlight, and even the anxious look on Liu Muyun's face were all captured in his heart.
"This is not perception."
Ye Chen suddenly opened his eyes. In his eyes, a wisp of misty light slowly emerged. That was the power of the soul.
Shifting his feet, Ye Chen's body moved. He did not back off, but instead chose to move forward, rushing towards that cold light at an extremely fast speed.
"Is he crazy?"
Su Ming shouted in surprise. This made Fang Han's face even colder. The corners of his mouth curled up as if he could see Ye Chen's tragic end with his heart pierced.
The cold light flashed.
Blood suddenly spurted out from Ye Chen's body. The cold light almost pierced through Ye Chen's chest. It brushed past Ye Chen's arm and tore a hideous bloody wound.
"He avoided it?"
The crowd's eyes narrowed. The scene just now was too strange. Ye Chen actually avoided the cold light's fatal blow and only suffered a light injury on his arm.
"How is this possible?"
A dark figure suddenly came out from the darkness a hundred meters away. He was full of amazement as he looked at the scene in front of him. However, the killing intent on his body did not diminish. A long blade appeared in his hand and he slashed towards Ye Chen.
"You're courting death!"
Liu Muyun angrily shouted. Her beautiful eyes emitted an ice-cold chill. Her body flashed and rumbling sounds erupted. On the ground, countless cracks extended outwards. Her body had actually disappeared from her original position.
In a split second, Liu Muyun was already standing in front of that black shadow. Her ice-cold and ruthless eyes flashed as the Moonlight Sword unexpectedly blossomed with a blood-red sword light. A bleak and indifferent blood moon slowly emerged in the sky.
....
The black figure only felt a piercing pain. When he came back to his senses, his two arms had completely disappeared. There was no blood at the places where his arms had been cut off. There was only the ice-cold Sword Qi that was unceasingly wreaking havoc.
Moonlight Sword. How strong was it?
Liu Muyun angrily attacked and directly crippled the dark figure's two arms. If not for the fact that she wanted to keep him alive, her sword would have annihilated the dark figure's entire body into powder.
Thump!
Ye Chen slowly landed on the ground. His face was a little pale. With his current strength, it was still somewhat difficult for him to fully control his spiritual power. Just this flash had overdrawn his whole body's strength and made him extremely weak.
"Are you okay?" Liu Muyun hurriedly came over. Seeing that Ye Chen was not seriously injured, she was slightly relieved.
The two turned their eyes and were about to interrogate the dark figure. Suddenly, an overbearing purple flame fell from the sky and directly enveloped the dark figure's body.
A mournful wail resounded. The dark figure's body gradually turned into nothingness in the flame. When the flame dissipated, only a piece of white ashes was left on the ground. A breeze blew and completely dissipated.
"What are you doing?" Ye Chen's gaze turned and coldly looked at Fang Han.
The dark figure was able to hide in the depths of the Imperial Palace. His background was definitely not simple. Moreover, he directly wanted to take Ye Chen's life. He was ruthless and ruthless. He must have some grievances with Ye Chen.
If he could interrogate him properly, he might be able to follow the vine to the melon and find the mastermind behind the assassination.
However, Fang Han directly killed this person, not giving Ye Chen a chance to interrogate him. Such a move would only make matters worse. This assassination was definitely related to Fang Han.
"This person's whereabouts are strange. He also has a profound assassination technique. If we let him live, I'm afraid that he will secretly change. Killing him as soon as possible is also to protect the safety of the other members of the Imperial Family."
Fang Han's words made Ye Chen's eyes even colder. As long as one had a discerning eye, they could feel how strange Fang Han's actions were. But Fang Han directly ignored the gazes of others and put on a righteous appearance. Shameless.
"Come!"
Following Fang Han's shout, more than ten armored men appeared in the open space.
"An assassin appeared at the foot of the God of Sky Mountain just now. Search this place quickly and see if you can find any clues. Also, this matter has a bad influence. You must seal off the news. If anyone leaks out, kill them without mercy."
"Yes!"
A group of guards bowed and immediately sealed off the God of Sky Mountain. The crowd's eyes narrowed slightly. Not only did Fang Han kill to silence them, he also wanted to completely wipe out the assassination.
Once he was done, Fang Han's gaze fell on Ye Chen. He said coldly, "This matter ends here. If there is news about the assassination, I will naturally inform you."
Once he finished speaking, Fang Han's body flashed and disappeared. This made Ye Chen's lips curl into a strange smile. Since the assassination failed, he denied it. Now, he even swaggered away. How could a prince be so shameless?
Ye Chen turned to look at Su Ming. Suddenly, Su Ming's heart skipped a beat. He did not speak, but only nodded at Ye Chen and left the place.
After this incident, Su Ming had seen Fang Han's true colors. Naturally, he would not listen to his lies.
However, Su Ming still loved Liu Muyun. When he saw Ye Chen and Liu Muyun being so close, he was naturally jealous. But it was only jealousy. He did not want to kill them.
Ye Chen and Liu Muyun walked side by side. Although Ye Chen had used up a lot of his energy, with his strong body, he only needed to rest for a short while to recover to seventy percent. He was fine.
On the other hand, Liu Muyun frowned. There was a hint of worry between her brows.
"Fang Han wants to kill you. You must be careful in the future."
Suddenly, Liu Muyun spat out a word, causing Ye Chen to be stunned. After pondering for a moment, he also nodded his head.
Ever since Ye Chen stepped into the Imperial City, there had been many conflicts between him and Fang Han. However, these conflicts were merely a battle of words. Although Fang Han hated Ye Chen to the core, his words and actions were all out of consideration for Ye Chen's identity as a prince.
Today, when Fang Han saw Ye Chen forcing Su Ming to retreat, he was shocked. He also realized that Ye Chen had grown so much without him noticing. He thought of a plan. He wanted to kill Ye Chen on the spot while everyone was distracted.
After this incident, Fang Han had completely exposed his intention to kill. Since that was the case, he would no longer care about his identity. Once he found a chance, he would pounce on Ye Chen like a mad dog, even if he had to do it himself.
