Chapter 970: Won’t know how he died
In front of everyone who was watching, Xiao Tianyao defeated three supreme martial gods. Naturally, the Emperor could not say anything. He could only let the two, husband and wife, leave according to the original agreement, and sent heavy troops to protect them.
Of course, this protection was nothing more than surveillance.
The journey out of the Imperial Capital was very smooth. The two of them left the Imperial Capital without encountering any obstacles. They didn't even encounter any trouble for three days.
“It seems that the Emperor has played a big game of chess.” After killing the three supreme martial gods of the Central Empire, it was not easy for the Emperor to tolerate them for three days.
Xiao Tianyao touched Lin Chujiu's head with a firm look on his face: "Don't worry, I'm here."
When Xiao Tianyao checked into the inn again, he was not as relaxed as when he came. He knew very well that the Emperor could not tolerate him for long.
After traveling for three days, they have gone far enough. Even if the Emperor doesn't take action, they must leave quietly, otherwise……
They have no chance of getting out of the Central Empire alive.
"I'm not worried, I know we can reach the border." The Eldest Prince's people were at the border, and even the people Xiao Tianyao brought from the East were there. They will be safe if they make it to the border.
"Do you think they will take action tonight?" From the first night, they never slept well and took turns to keep vigil every night.
Of course, Xiao Tianyao refused to let Lin Chujiu keep vigil, but he couldn't resist Lin Chujiu's insistence.
And Lin Chujiu was right. Xiao Tianyao was the main force between the two of them. Xiao Tianyao had to keep up his energy. Only in this way could he face the upcoming battle.
Xiao Tianyao couldn't defeat Lin Chujiu. In addition, Lin Chujiu was acting coquettishly and losing her temper. Xiao Tianyao had no choice but to let Lin Chujiu keep vigil.
The two of them exchanged views for three consecutive nights, but nothing happened. But tonight, they both smelled something unusual at the same time.
Tonight, they were afraid something was going to happen, but they were not afraid. Based on the principle of attacking first, they will take out the black stones every night and put them in the house.
To be honest, they were now afraid that the Emperor would not send experts. No matter who experts the Emperor sends, they will be scared to death!
“Either tonight or tomorrow. If it's a few more days…the Emperor will not be able to sleep.” According to Xiao Tianyao’s understanding of the Emperor, it was rare to wait for three days before taking action.
"So, let's just wait." Regardless of whether they would come tonight or not, there was no way for the two of them to sleep.
No one can sleep at this time.
Sure enough, things went as Xiao Tianyao expected. At midnight, there was movement outside the inn.
Xiao Tianyao, who was leaning on the bedside with a long sword in his arms, suddenly opened his eyes, and there was no trace of confusion in his bright black eyes: "Here they come!"
The Emperor's patience was a little less than he thought.
"Be careful." Lin Chujiu was very self-aware and knew that she was a hindrance, so she hid in bed obediently and refused to get off.
Their black stone was placed on the bed.
*Click!* Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu didn’t have to wait for too long. In just one breath, the person arrived at the door. With a slight push, the door opened.
The moonlight poured in, illuminating the five people outside the door.
“Prince Xiao of the East!” The five of them were not surprised at all when they saw Xiao Tianyao standing in the house holding a long sword.
It was good enough if they could conceal their presence against the martial gods, but it was impossible to escape the ears of the supreme martial gods.
"Finally, you're here." However, Xiao Tianyao didn't take the five supreme martial gods seriously.
One against five, he was no match for these five, but it was straightforward to drag these five people down until they lost their martial arts.
“Prince Xiao of the East, then I’ll offend you!” The five of them were not polite. They greeted Xiao Tianyao and rushed towards him at the same time.
It was strange and a bit exaggerated to say that the door was not big enough, but the other party didn't bother to damage the doors and windows. The five supreme martial gods came in two groups. The first three entangled Xiao Tianyao and the last two rushed toward Lin Chujiu.
They haven't forgotten that the bandits had captured Princess Xiao and successfully forced Prince Xiao to surrender, but……
The idea was beautiful, but the reality was cruel!
The bandits that day were able to take Lin Chujiu as a hostage because Xiao Tianyao let them do so and Lin Chujiu was unprepared. In reality, neither Xiao Tianyao nor Lin Chujiu were little white rabbits. These five supreme martial gods wanted to take advantage of their large number was simply a dream.
Before anyone could get close to him, the hidden weapon in Lin Chujiu's hand flew towards the other party. Silver needles pierced the air and flew towards them. Although, with the super martial arts skills, there was no need to worry about being hit by this small hidden weapon. But, they still have to hide after all, right?
There was one person who failed to hide, so he used the wind of his palm to knock the silver needle away. But he didn't know what was on the silver needle. His clothes accidentally touched one, and he smelled a strange smell. He lowered his head and saw his clothes were burnt down.
“What is this?” The face of the supreme martial god who was hit changed greatly, and he was frightened.
This thing was too lethal. How terrible would it be if it hit his body?
However, he was answered by another set of sleeve arrows. The thumb-thick sleeve arrows were also stained with something unknown. They fell to the ground and immediately made a hissing sound, and a hole was burned in the ground.
Even the ground can be burned. Didn't it show how terrifying this thing was?
The supreme martial gods who pounced on Lin Chujiu were wary and did not dare to charge forward with all their strength. Although it was not easy to fight one against three, Xiao Tianyao didn't suffer a loss. Occasionally, he could find time to block an attack against Lin Chujiu. Therefore, the five supreme martial gods had enough time to attack, but they still couldn't do anything to Xiao Tianyao.
“This kid is very powerful. The five of us must join forces, let the others outside attack that woman.” After fighting for a long time, he realized that it was unreasonable to spread out. So one of the supreme martial gods immediately adjusted his strategy.
"Okay." The five supreme martial gods immediately changed their moves and sent out a signal. In an instant, the guards who were ordered to escort them immediately turned their guns and pointed them at them.
Unfortunately, Lin Chujiu had a lot of hidden weapons in her hands. These guards didn't end up in a good condition. The few who rushed ahead were unlucky enough to be injured by the hidden weapons, and they all rolled on the ground in pain.
Lin Chujiu's move made the guards outside the door feel wary, but someone soon reminded him: "Don't be afraid, the hidden weapons she has are limited."
Yes, Lin Chujiu's hidden weapons were limited. Even if she was fully armed, she couldn't attack all of them. They will be gone after a few uses. But don't forget, Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu have placed a black stone on the bed. This time was enough. The five supreme martial gods have lost their fighting ability.
“Five of you, do you feel that you are out of strength?” Lin Chujiu noticed that the five of them were moving much slower, so he kindly reminded them.
"What do you mean?" Martial arts practitioners were very sensitive to their strengths. The five of them did feel that something was wrong, but they couldn't tell what was wrong for a while.
“Soon, you'll find out!"
Yes, they will soon know, but won't know how they died……
