Quick Transmigration: After Fake Death, All the Protagonists I Flirted With Went Crazy

Chapter 224 Ingratitude and Deceit (59)

As the drug took effect, my previously weak fingers gently gripped the scabbard and picked up the silver-white sword.

As the sword came into his hand, Gu Yao's eyes sharpened.

"Tang Yi, protect His Majesty."

Tang Yi bowed her head and said, "Yes!"

Gu Yao nodded and strode outside.

Bu Shaoluan wanted to capture that glimpse of beauty, but her fingertips couldn't lift even an inch. She could only watch as Gu Yao's figure disappeared into the sunlight, gradually blurring and fading into the distance.

He couldn't stop it in the slightest.

The disruption of his original plans threw him into a state of panic.

Even though he had repeatedly ordered that Shen Xuntang not be harmed, there was no guarantee that jealous people wouldn't take advantage of the chaos to attack.

Gu Yao didn't turn around; he was afraid he would soften his heart.

Tang Er was already waiting at the foot of the city wall. When he saw Gu Yao coming, he quickly went forward.

Gu Yao seemed somewhat surprised, "Tang Er, what brings you here?"

Shouldn't you be standing guard at the entrance of the Golden Palace with Baili Weisheng and Ning Yi right now?

Tang Er bowed and said, "The Master has found a way out for us long ago. We orphans without parents have no way to repay him, so it is only right that we help the Master."

The aloof young man raised his eyes and looked directly at the exquisitely handsome young man in front of him, and slowly said, "Prince Ning is dead, and Jiangyou is in chaos. They have no way out. Please, Master, go ahead and do it."

Gu Yao's face stiffened, and he couldn't help but clench his fist on the sword, his throat tightening slightly.

How many people are left?

"The Master has hired assassins to go there; the brothers are just helping them out."

Gu Yao breathed a sigh of relief. "That's good."

Tang Er watched the young man's retreating figure as he ascended the city wall, his gaze deep and unfathomable.

He bowed deeply, saying, "Respectfully seeing off our master."

What he didn't tell Gu Yao was that even if they weren't the main assassination force, half of the remaining men had been killed in Jiangyou.

Their bodies have been buried with their brothers.

However, there was no need to say this aloud; why cause unnecessary trouble for the master?

Whatever Gu Yao wants to do, they will naturally do their utmost.

Tang Er rubbed his fingertips together; they seemed to be stained with his brother's blood.

He had someone he cared about, but he was kept in the dark and only found out later.

"Let us, the people with no ties, do these life-threatening things."

Tang Shisan's cheerful voice still lingered in my ears.

When Ning Yi saw him return, she quickly went to greet him, "What happened to you?"

Tang Er snapped out of his thoughts and looked at the worried young man before him. His heart, which had been sinking into despair, slowly began to stir again.

He shook his head and said, "It's nothing."

*

Gu Yao stood on the city wall, and the commander of the Imperial Guards quickly came forward to greet him.

"Palm print."

Gu Yao responded softly and craned his neck to look down from the city wall.

"Have you found Lin Xu?"

The commander of the Imperial Guards shook his head with a solemn expression.

"Not yet."

Gu Yao's expression also darkened. With the enemy at the gates and their forces overwhelmingly outnumbered, they had no choice but to fight.

He didn't believe Lin Xu would die so easily.

Such a cunning and treacherous person.

He couldn't believe that someone who had managed to lie low and humble himself when his sister was banished to the cold palace, and even volunteered to guard the border, would die so easily.

Before leaving, he could still contact old acquaintances and brainwash the still young Bu Shaoluan.

Gu Yao's expression turned cold as he thought of this.

Lin Xu is a menace; he must die today!

He promised to clear obstacles for the wolf cubs, and he will naturally keep his word.

Lin Xu isn't necessarily a good person either.

wild ambition.

They probably wanted to use Bu Shaoluan as a puppet ruler.

With the enemy at the gates, they'll kill me and then seize the emperor.

Even Bu Shaoluan couldn't stop it.

I wonder what happened to the little wolf cub in his past life?

Sensing its master's anxiety, Ci Jing trembled slightly.

This brought Gu Yao back to his senses.

Gu Yao took a deep breath and looked down from the city wall.

The leader at the head was Chen Yan, the former deputy general of the garrison in southern Jiangxi.

Upon seeing someone lean out, he immediately began shouting.

"Isn't this our Lord Chief? He was so arrogant at the General's welcoming banquet last time, but now he only dares to cower in the city."

"If you're a real man, come down and fight me!"

Gu Yao did not respond, but secretly instructed the system to observe the area below.

Seeing that no one responded, Chen Yan assumed that Gu Yao was afraid, and became even more arrogant, continuing to provoke him: "Our Lord of the Seal is not much of a man. After all, he's just a rootless bastard. Don't you think so?"

A deafening burst of laughter came from behind Chen Yan.

"Yes, how can a eunuch be considered a man..."

"It's something without roots."

"A real man has to be a man first."

"Hahaha."

"..."

"..."

A noisy and boisterous burst of laughter came from below the city gate.

The guards standing nearby all had ashen faces.

The commander of the Imperial Guards opened his mouth to curse back, but Gu Yao stopped him lightly.

"Master, how dare they utter such foul language!"

In the eyes of the commander of the Imperial Guards, Shen Xuntang, though a eunuch, was one of the few people he admired in his life.

I still remember on the training ground, the handsome young man knocked him to the ground in just a few moves, but did not punish him for his slip of the tongue.

Instead, they pointed out many of his shortcomings.

He was obsessed with martial arts and had long regarded the young man in front of him as his teacher.

Gu Yao watched as Xiao Jiu floated back. "Host, Lin Xu is hiding in the ranks of soldiers behind Chen Yan. He's the fifth one."

Upon hearing this, Gu Yao's face lit up with joy, and his fingertips rested on the hilt of Ci Jingdu's sword.

Seeing that Gu Yao remained unmoved and that his words were becoming increasingly offensive, the commander of the Imperial Guards could no longer tolerate it.

Just as he was about to accept the challenge, a crimson figure appeared beside him, and the metallic sound of a blade being drawn filled his ears.

Before the people on the city wall could react, the figure gracefully descended, heading straight for Chen Yan with incredible speed!

With a flash of sword light, those who were just mocking and ridiculing Gu Yao were now dead beneath Gu Yao's sword.

Chen Yan clutched his neck, but it was too late. He fell off his horse, kicking up a cloud of dust.

The silver-white sword was stained with blood, as was her incomparably beautiful face. Even the beauty mark at the corner of her eye was tinged with red, giving her an eerie and unsettling appearance.

Gu Yao lightly landed on the horse's back, stood on high ground, and coldly glanced at the person who had just been spouting nonsense.

He spotted Lin Xu amidst the chaos at a glance, tilted his head, and smiled gently.

The mirror, stained with human blood, was also somewhat excited, trembling almost imperceptibly. Gu Yao raised his hand and gently comforted it.

A single sword stroke clears it!

With its fierce sword energy, it cleaved a path through the crowd.

Lin Xu watched the sharp sword hurtling towards him, trying to move his feet, but the fierce sword energy held him in place, and he could only watch that eerie face get closer and closer to him...

Until the blade pierced his heart.

The silver-white blade was soaked in blood, and blood dripped from the tip.

The vivid blood stained the yellow earth red.

Lin Xu seemed unable to believe that he would die so easily.

He stared blankly at his pierced heart, but Gu Yao showed no pity and drew his sword.

Lin Xu's eyes widened, his expression frozen in that moment.

Do not look down.

Gu Yao turned his head, holding the still-dripping sword in his hand, and looked at the terrified person in front of him. Despite being a lone intruder in the enemy camp, he commanded respect.

The surrounding area became a vacuum zone.

Blood stained her pale fingers, which she gently pressed against her lips, making her pink lips appear alluringly red.

The handsome young man tilted his head slightly. "Shh, who do you want to die first?"

No one answered.

Gu Yao seemed somewhat regretful, and gave a wicked laugh, "Then you can all just die."

The commander of the Imperial Guards was shocked as he watched Gu Yao slaughter the enemy in the enemy camp.

So this is the true power of the palm seal?

Gu Yao was blinded by rage.

He hadn't felt this exhilarated in a long time.

The system saw that Gu Yao had killed two people with one sword, and there were severed limbs all around.

Silently stay to the side.

"Host, Chen Qing and his army are almost here."

The young emperor was also on his way to the city gate.

Gu Yao was stunned when he heard this, and then his shoulder was slashed.

Having been humiliated by Gu Yao, Zhang Lin, the only remaining deputy general in the rebel army, was already seething with rage.

He had completely forgotten Bu Shaoluan's repeated orders.

All he wants now is to kill Gu Yao.

Seeing that the people were forced to the city gate, he knew his chance had come.

In order to protect the capital, the people inside the city would absolutely not open the gates.

He rode his horse behind the archers and gave a cold smile.

"Fire arrows!"

As Bu Shaoluan staggered to the top of the city wall, he witnessed the young man being driven to a dead end, facing a hail of arrows with no way to escape.

"do not want!"

It's too late.

The sharp arrow pierced the young man's thin body, staining his crimson clothes a deeper shade.

Zhang Lin's smug smile lasted only a few seconds before the sound of horses' hooves echoed in the distance.

Gu Yao watched Xiao Jiu's broadcast and a relieved smile appeared on his face.

Now it can be considered foolproof.

Chen Qing, we've arrived!
