Chapter 572 - Li Heng dies, face-smacking third Prince
n
n
n
nLi Heng was terrified and kept shaking his head.”Your Highness, no!”
n
nChi!
n
nThe third Prince slashed down with his sword, cutting off his other arm.
n
n“Ah!” A shrill scream came out of his mouth, and blood spilled all over the ground. He rolled on the ground in pain.
n
nHe held a long sword dripping with blood.
n
nThe third Prince smiled and asked again,”twelfth brother, is that enough?”
n
n“Not enough!” Sword 12’s cold voice sounded again.
n
n“He doesn’t know you. You have to answer for offending you. I’ll cut off one of his arms and give you enough of an explanation.” At this point, the third Prince’s expression turned cold.
n
nThen, he stabbed the sword into the ground.
n
nHe looked at the 12th sword coldly.
n
n“No matter what, he’s still my brother-in-law. You have to look at the owner before you hit the dog. Even if it’s according to the law, an attempted murder doesn’t warrant the death penalty!”
n
n“You want to protect him?” The 12th sword narrowed his eyes.
n
n“Yes.” The third Prince said.
n
nBOOM!
n
nA violent sword Qi burst out from his body. As soon as it appeared, it turned into a sword realm that covered the entire front yard. The destructive power it contained seemed to be able to destroy the world.
n
n“I’d like to see what you have to protect him!” Sword 12 said coldly.
n
nHis body flickered, and his entire body was like a sharp giant sword as he charged toward Li Heng with boundless ferocity.
n
nThe third Prince hurriedly retreated. The old Butler looked at the 12th sword with fear and stood out from behind.
n
n“Great Azure Dragon Fist!”
n
nA Dragon’s Roar resounded and a huge Azure Dragon Phantom rose from his arm. As he took a step, the Azure Dragon raised its Dragon Claw and punched out with his fist, smashing toward the 12th sword.
n
n“Get lost!” The 12th sword revealed a disdainful expression.
n
nUsing his finger as a sword, he condensed a Supreme Sword and slashed at his fist.
n
nChi!
n
nAs the sword light fell, the old Butler’s arm was cut off. He was sent flying by the sword Qi and smashed into half of the palace before falling to the ground.
n
nAt this moment.
n
nThe 12th sword was already in front of Li Heng. Under his fearful gaze, a sword Qi slashed down.
n
n“Your Highness, save me!” Li Heng asked for help in despair.
n
nThe sword Qi fell and split him in half.
n
nGet rid of him.
n
nLooking at the third Prince, the 12th sword said,”what other techniques do you have? use them all!”
n
n“I’m giving you face by calling you twelfth brother. You slapped my face in front of me and even killed my brother-in-law.” The third Prince was expressionless.
n
nHe was completely angry. If he didn’t make sword 12 stay, it would be a great blow to his prestige.
n
nPa! Pa!
n
nClapping her hands, an old woman walked out of the darkness with a walking stick. Her movements were very slow and she was still coughing violently, as if a gust of wind could blow her to the ground.
n
nWith her appearance, the temperature in the air dropped to a terrifying level.
n
nHe stopped ten steps away from the 12th sword.
n
nJust as the two sides were ready to fight, eunuch Zhu arrived late and appeared in the courtyard.
n
n“It’s quite lively!” Eunuch Zhu said with a smile.
n
nThe third Prince nodded in greeting.
n
nHe looked at the 12th sword and said,”Li Heng has already been eliminated. Give me some face and let this matter rest.”
n
n“Alright,” he said. “Understood!” Sword 12 agreed.
n
nEunuch Zhu then looked at the third Prince and said,”this matter is over. Don’t mention it again.”
n
nThe third Prince nodded. Since eunuch Zhu had already said so much, he had no choice but to give him some face.
n
n“Let’s go! Let’s enter the palace. ” Eunuch Zhu said.
n
n“Now?” Sword 12 frowned.
n
nEunuch Zhu seemed to have thought of something and sighed.”Go back first, then come back to the palace.”
n
n“Alright,” he said. The 12th sword had no objections this time.
n
nHe left with Xiao ran.
n
nAfter leaving the third Prince’s residence, Xiao ran said,”he’s looking for you now. I’m afraid it’s about the Heaven’s Will.”
n
n“We’ll have to face it sooner or later, we can’t hide. ” The 12th sword said.
n
n“That’s true. ” Xiao ran did not say anything more.
n
nThe two of them separated.
n
nXiao ran walked towards the divine sword guards.
n
nThe 12th sword returned home.
n
nIn the mansion.
n
nThe third Prince had already returned to his study, and there were only the two of them. The door was closed, and there was nothing to hide. His face was very ugly, full of killing intent. His hands were tightly clenched together, and he kicked the table over. He cursed angrily,”you’re too much!”
n
nBefore the woman could say anything, he said again.
n
n“Show him some face. Does he really think he’s this Prince’s twelfth brother? Fuck, I really wanted to kill him just now!”
n
nThe woman walked up to him, held his hand, and pulled him to sit on the chair.
n
n“Don’t be angry, a person who is about to die doesn’t need to be so angry,”
n
nThe third Prince’s eyes lit up. He had heard the implied meaning in the woman’s words.
n
n“Kill him as well?”
n
n“Killing with a borrowed knife.” The woman smiled.
n
nAfter thinking about it, the third Prince understood.
n
nHe pinched her chin and chuckled.”You’re right. The best way to get rid of him is to use someone else’s hands.”
n
n……
n
nThe Imperial Palace.
n
nThe 12th sword had already gone back and met the person he wanted to see the most. He had changed his clothes and was standing in the Imperial study.
n
n“Grant me a seat!” Emperor Sheng Wen said.
n
nA young eunuch hurriedly placed a chair to the side.
n
nThe 12th sword did not sit down. He was still standing.
n
n“Why aren’t you sitting?” Emperor Sheng Wen asked.
n
n“It’s better to stand. ” The 12th sword shook his head.
n
nEmperor Sheng Wen’s heart skipped a beat. Did he fail this time?
n
nHe thought about it and felt that it was impossible. With his strength, there was no reason for him to fail.
n
n“Has the Heaven’s Will been brought back?” Emperor Sheng Wen asked.
n
n“No, I didn ‘t,” The 12th sword lowered his head.
n
nA feeling of helplessness appeared in his heart. Without the Heaven’s Will, would he still give the divine Star stone to him?
n
