Chapter 120 - Assasination At Night
Without even looking at Xiao Tianyi, Yun Qianyu ordered the coachman, “Let’s go home.”
The coachman nodded and took a careful look at the Xuan Prince. Seeing that his Highness did not say anything, the coachman quickly whipped the horse and drove off quickly.
Standing still and unable to move, Xiao Tianyi, the Xuan Prince, was burning with anger. He stared at the leaving carriage and couldn’t do anything. After realizing something was wrong with the Xuan Prince, his men finally came to his side.
“Your Highness, is something the matter?”
Even though he couldn’t speak because he was poisoned, Xiao Tianyi knew that the poison would not kill him. He knew that If Yun Qianyu killed him now, she would not be able to live for long.
That was why he figured that the poison was just to control him, making him unable to move and speak.
Seeing that something was wrong, the bodyguards of Xiao Tianyi quickly carried him back to seek medical treatment.
The carriage drove along the streets headed for the Eternal Peace Marquis’s Residence. However, after passing two streets, a strong aura of killing intent approached the carriage; Yun Qianyu felt it immediately. Even though her five senses were not sensitive and she had no spirit energy, she was no stranger to the aura of killing intent.
‘Someone’s here to kill me! Who could it be?
Could it be the person behind the killings of Xiao Jiuyuan’s fiancees? Or maybe someone from the Eternal Peace Marquis?’
Lifting the curtain in the carriage, Yun Qianyu saw several ghostly figures speeding along the street. In the blink of an eye, these people stopped in front of her carriage.
The coachman screamed, pulled the reins to stop the horses and said in a terrified tone, “Young, young miss… someone has stopped the carriage.”
The coachman was scared to death and regretted that he didn’t find an excuse to not drive the eldest young miss. ‘How could so many things happen at once!’
On the other hand, Yun Qianyu was not at all scared. From inside the carriage, she looked intently at the figures dressed in black. As the people dressed in black approached her carriage, she calmly readied to call out for help.
She knew that Xiao Jiuyuan would have placed people close to her in order to apprehend anyone that tried to assassinate her. In fact, these people could be the ones that killed Xiao Jiuyuan’s previous fiancees.
But before Yun Qianyu could call out for help, a female voice was heard behind the carriage, “Bold robbers, killing the innocent out in the open? Prepare to face justice!”
In the blink of an eye, a yellow flash passed by the carriage. Then in the next instant, yellow spirit energy shot toward the people dressed in black.
Not expecting a busybody to appear in the night, some of the people dressed in black were shocked and unable to guard against the oncoming spirit energy. Boom! The few that were in front were hit by the spirit energy and killed instantly, spitting out blood as their lifeless bodies fell to the ground.
With an ugly look on his face, the leader of the group rushed to the front with a strong, cyan colored spirit energy and shot it toward another oncoming wave of yellow spirit energy. The two spirit energies collided violently, but ultimately the cyan spirit energy crushed the yellow spirit energy, tearing it to pieces.
What’s more, the cyan spirit energy instantly pushed back the lady with the yellow spirit energy. Feeling a tightness on her chest, the lady could not bear the strong pressure of the cyan spirit energy. Immediately, blood rushed up to her mouth and she vomited the blood.
Not satisfied with the result, the leader came to the lady now lying on the ground and said, “Hmph, you must have a death wish!”
“Fists of Thunder!” the person in black yelled.
In the next moment, a fist with thunderous energy went flying toward the lady.
