Chapter 272: Heart Piercing
Ye Xun had just imagined many scenes, but he had never thought it would be like this.
You know, the group of death warriors left by my father may not be as good as the secret guards under my grandfather, but they are on par with those under Emperor Taicheng, and much stronger than those under the young emperor. They are all good seedlings that can fight ten against one, and are far from ordinary people.
But now, his uncle, the dandy in the eyes of the world, was chopping his sword as easily as cutting melons and vegetables. Every time he swung his sword, a string of blood was drawn.
For the first time, Ye Xun discovered that when the Ninth Prince didn’t smile, he was so terrifying.
If Ye Shuo was still immature when he encountered the assassination attempt, now under the careful teaching of Yao Zhi and several masters, his profound internal strength has been completely mastered and can be used at will.
Not to mention Ye Xun, even the leading assassins did not expect things to turn out like this.
In the past, the leader of the death squad had heard a lot about the Ninth Prince’s deeds during his training. He had been hearing these stories for so many years and had heard them so many times that he thought he was just an ignorant and incompetent prince. But when he saw him today, he realised that what he heard was untrue.
The leading assassin’s veins popped out, and he saw the right opportunity and swung his sword at the young man’s back. Unexpectedly, the young man’s back seemed to have eyes. The leading assassin’s eyes blurred at first, and then he was attacked by a huge force.
With a “clang” sound, the horizontal sword hit the back of the sword hard, and almost instantly, the long sword in the hand of the assassin broke.
