Chapter 67 Did Lin Ruofu run away?
"Consort Shu, do you really think... I'm senile?"
"Since I've sat on this throne for so long, how could I possibly have no trump cards at all?"
"Today, I will use your hands to completely eradicate this malignant tumor of the Great Yan."
……
A dull, loud bang.
Consort Shu was kicked away by Wang Ji's sudden kick, and crashed heavily onto the hard ground.
The force was so great that it smashed a large crater into the ground.
At this moment, Consort Shu was disheveled and coughing up blood uncontrollably.
The aloof and elegant demeanor she once possessed as a noblewoman has long since vanished.
"Cough cough... Wang Ji... you... you'll die a horrible death..."
Consort Shu coughed violently as she struggled desperately to get up.
However, before she could even stand up, Wang Ji ruthlessly stomped on her chest.
The terrifying force instantly broke her ribs, and the excruciating pain made even breathing extremely difficult.
"Let's save our energy."
Wang Ji looked down at the once arrogant woman at his feet.
"When you see His Majesty, you will have your turn to speak."
After saying that, he casually released a burst of spiritual energy, sealing Consort Shu's meridians and tossing her aside like a dead dog.
On the other side, the tide of battle has turned.
With the addition of more than a dozen Soul Platform Realm experts brought by Wang Ji, Wei Jiuqian's pressure was greatly reduced.
He seized the opportunity, flicked his whisk, and countless silver threads coiled around Lin Ruofu like venomous snakes, tightly blocking his retreat.
"Prime Minister Lin, fortunes change, and now it's my turn!"
Wei Jiuqian grinned maliciously and moved like a ghost, striking Lin Ruofu in the back with a palm.
"puff!"
Caught off guard, Lin Ruofu was struck so hard that his blood surged, he spat out a mouthful of blood, and staggered forward.
"Damn it!"
His face looked extremely pale.
Lin Ruofu never expected that the seemingly invincible situation would completely collapse due to Wang Ji's sudden appearance.
Consort Shu was captured, and he himself suffered a severe blow.
If we don't leave now, we're really going to die here today!
"Blood Escape!"
Lin Ruofu glared venomously at Wei Jiuqian and Wang Ji, then suddenly bit his tongue, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
His body was enveloped in a brilliant crimson light.
He transformed into a streak of crimson light, swiftly breaking through the blockade of those Soul Platform Realm experts, and fled into the distance.
"Trying to run? Not so easy!"
Upon seeing this, Wei Jiuqian's eyes flashed with murderous intent.
Lin Ruofu is the backbone of the Lin family. Killing him would be like the Lin family collapsing in half!
How could we let such a good opportunity slip by?
"General Wang, I'm leaving this place to you!"
"Your Highness must be protected!"
Wei Jiuqian shouted at Wang Ji, and immediately led the dozen or so Soul Platform Realm cultivators in hot pursuit of Lin Ruofu's escape route.
"rest assured!"
Wang Ji burst into laughter.
"With me here, no one can touch His Highness!"
Watching Wei Jiuqian and the others walk away, a glint of light flashed in Lu Xuan's eyes.
If Lin Ruofu dies, the Lin family will be leaderless, and with the royal family's trump cards in hand, the Lin family's destruction is inevitable!
"Thank you, General Wang, for your rescue."
Lu Xuan bowed to Wang Ji with a sincere expression.
Today, if Wang Ji hadn't arrived in time, even though I still had a backup plan, the situation would still have been somewhat unimaginable.
"Your Highness, there's no need for such politeness."
Wang Ji laughed heartily.
"What I did was simply following orders."
"On the contrary, Your Highness, despite only being at the Soul Platform Realm, was able to injure Consort Shu, who possesses the strength of the Heavenly Origin Realm... In terms of combat prowess alone, this has truly broadened my horizons!"
Wang Ji gave Lu Xuan a deep look, his gaze filled not only with undisguised admiration but also with a hint of awe.
After all, he had clearly seen the stunning beauty of that sword strike.
Reflecting on it, the power of that sword strike was so great that even if I were to face it, I probably wouldn't dare to take it head-on so easily.
"It was just luck."
Lu Xuan casually made a modest remark, then quickly turned his gaze to Lin Wan'er, who was unconscious to the side.
Looking at that pale, pretty face, Lu Xuan felt a deep, undisguised pity welling up in his eyes.
"General Wang, I'm leaving this mess to you."
After saying that, he didn't say anything more. He bent down, picked up Lin Wan'er, and hurriedly walked into the inner room.
……
At this moment, the deafening shouts of battle in the vast Xiaoyao Prince's Mansion have gradually subsided.
With Wang Ji's strong intervention, the battle, which was originally quite stalemate and difficult to determine, was almost instantly reversed, presenting a one-sided crushing situation.
With a soft "plop," Su Qinghuan's longsword moved like a startled swan, piercing the throat of the last Lin family Soul Platform Realm cultivator with a clean and decisive strike.
The last enemy fell.
The entire Prince Xiaoyao's Mansion returned to peace once again.
The dejected Consort Shu, along with the Crown Prince Lu Heng and the Sixth Prince Lu Ming, who were slumped on the ground, watched the bloody scene unfold before them, their faces already ashen and devoid of any color.
"We lost..."
Lu Heng muttered to himself as if he had lost his soul.
The Shadow Assassins he brought were completely wiped out!
The Lin family's Soul Platform Realm cultivators have all been killed or injured!
What he found even more unacceptable was that Consort Shu, a powerful expert in the Heavenly Origin Realm, had been captured alive, and even Lin Ruofu had escaped with serious injuries!
Obviously...
It should have been a foolproof and invincible trap!
Why?
Why did it turn out like this?
