Chapter 283 Acquaintance

"kill!"

Although they didn't know why the target was distracted, as assassins who bought their lives for a living, the two of them accurately seized this gap.

The sword flashed and a head flew up high.

The substitute's head flew out, but why was there still no blood?

This thought flashed through the minds of the two of them.

Buzz! !

An invisible ripple swept across, covering the entire area instantly. Everyone standing in this area felt an invisible weight, as if someone had added two layers of sandbags to their bodies.

The expressions of the two people who had just killed the substitute Wu Chong changed.

"Heaven?! Run quickly!!"

Not only them, but even the dozen or so people who were standing nearby to block the escape route of the substitute Wu Chong showed frightened expressions. The weaker archers further away turned around and ran away immediately.

Snap.

Before the two men could move, the headless corpse next to them suddenly raised its hand and grabbed their ankles.

"What the hell are you!!"

This scene frightened the two of them with shock and anger.

Why doesn't this guy die even if his head is cut off? What exactly is the mission assigned to them this time?

"The Art of Ten Thousand Swords."

In mid-air, Wu Chong didn't even glance at the group of ants.

He fished nearby for a long time, and found that what came was just a group of miscellaneous soldiers, which was a waste of time. Those old guys who went to the capital never looked at him from the beginning to the end. Everyone thought he was just a dispensable pawn on the chessboard!

In an instant, everyone under the golden elixir domain seemed to have been pressed on the pause button, and even the falling speed of the leaves was affected. The world seemed to have turned into black and white, with only Wu Chong in the middle flying through the sky unaffected.

This is an illusion, not that time has been subtracted, but for this group of people to Wu Chong.

too slow.

Passing over the heads of this group of people, rows of sword rain formed in the air, and silent murderous aura filled the sky.

The eyes of the people below were trying hard to look up. Their minds felt the danger, but their bodies couldn't keep up.

Puff puff.

The endless rain of swords fell, and in an instant, the whole world seemed to be back to normal again.

The rain of swords fell to the ground, and all the thirteen Yuanshen realm experts who had surrounded and killed the double, as well as those hiding behind with hidden weapons and cold arrows, were all dead. Blood seeped into the ground, and the pungent smell of blood floated up. After the leaves fell to the ground, they were quickly soaked with blood.

The two assassins whose calves were caught were the worst. They were hit by at least ten sword energy, and their foreheads were nailed through.

The people fell to the ground, their eyes widened, and hot blood flowed from the wounds, telling their final confusion.

Why can you hold them back even if you have no head?

On the ground, the headless body stood up again.

To be precise, this human skin has not completely rotted away, so the corpse inside has nothing to do with 'them'. The guy walked over and picked up the head next to it and put it back on his shoulder. Although it couldn't be repaired, at least it didn't look so scary anymore.

Wu Chong flew around, killed all the enemies, and then landed.

A ray of true energy passed through and instantly repaired the injuries of the double's skin, and the severed head was reconnected.

"Keep on going."

After speaking, he took out a dozen more human skins and threw them on top of the corpses of thirteen Yuanshen realm powerhouses who had just died nearby.

After a while, these assassins who had just died stood up again one by one.

Only this time, their identities are guards.

Five days later.

The carriage drove out of the Jinghai area, passed through the Hezhou area, and officially entered the Gyeonggi region.

I don’t know if it was because he killed too hard the previous time, but the rest of the journey was quite quiet. Wu Chong hid behind the convoy all the way and did not encounter any enemies again. We have met several groups of bandits. There are actually bandits running rampant in a place that is almost close to the capital of Daqi. This shows how chaotic the current situation in Daqi is.

The normal order is almost no longer maintained, everyone is waiting.

Waiting for the birth of the new emperor.

After entering the capital, there were more and more pedestrians on the road. Wu Chong sensed powerful auras from several passing carriages. The most exaggerated thing was that not long ago, he actually sensed an aura of heavenly beings!

The extremely rare celestial being outside was met before he officially entered Shangjing City.

This change reminded Wu Chong of a saying he heard before he came to this world, 'If you don't go to the capital, you won't know that you are an official, and if you don't go to the devil, you won't know that you have little money.' This principle still applies in this world. Resources are concentrated in the hands of a small number of people at any time. Daqi Capital is the place where the most experts gather in this world.

"King Jinghai?"

A sound interrupted Wu Chong's thoughts. Following the sound, he saw a convoy slowly approaching.

It seems that he was attracted by the mark of his team.

The motorcade that Wu Chong is currently using was arranged by Prince Jinghai's Palace. As a direct descendant of the royal family, Prince Jinghai knows many people even in Shangjing City.

"Let them come over."

For Wu Chong, a complete stranger who came to the capital, even if he got some information from Yu Xian, was not as good as someone who was led by an acquaintance. Originally, he was still thinking about what to do, but he didn't expect someone to come to his door so soon.

Wu Chong said via voice transmission that he was following the convoy and looked no different from an ordinary guard. The person sitting in the car was still his human body double.

With Wu Chong's instructions, the human skin guards naturally let him go.

The convoy closed and the two became one. The carriage opposite opened the curtain, revealing a face that Wu Chong had almost forgotten.

Unexpectedly, he was still an acquaintance.

Princess Wujiang.

The Princess of Wujiang, who was treated like a big shot by Taoist official Ji Tianxiong when he was in Daozhou, now actually wants to fawn over him. Looking at the other party's proactive approach, it showed everything. A powerful vassal king like King Jinghai was far beyond what they could compare with.

Wu Chong felt a little emotional when he thought of this.

He remembered that in order to receive the princess, Ji Tianxiong specially summoned a group of Taoist officials from Daozhou and asked them to do a good job during the princess's visit. At that time, I thought the status of a big shot was very high, but now I think it is just like that.

This is the change in Wu Chong's own mentality. From the perspective of Princess Wujiang, the incident in Daozhou has not happened for a long time. Not everyone can undergo such a big change in just one or two years.

"I didn't expect to meet the prince by such a coincidence."

"It's quite a coincidence."

Inside the carriage, Wu Chong opened the curtain and showed a smile.

"It's you?!"

The moment she saw Wu Chong in the car window, Princess Wujiang's expression changed.

She was deeply impressed by Wu Chong.

She clearly remembered that when she was in Daozhou, this guy killed King Canglan in front of everyone and ruined Emperor Qi's plan. I heard that he was wanted later.

How did such a wanted criminal get into King Jinghai's car?
