Primordial Blood Throne Vol 4 Chapter 19

Chapter 19: Assassination

Whoosh!

The sharp arrow flew through the air, hurtling towards Zhu Xianyao’s face .

Just as it was about to pierce her face, Su Chen suddenly shoved Zhu Xianyao, knocking her aside .

The arrow, which glowed with an inky-green hue, flew past her face, only slicing off a few hairs as it flew by .

Zhu Xianyao quickly rolled backwards into a crouched position . She had yet to get back on her feet, however, when a number of figures appeared in rapid succession at the feet of the castle and began to shoot up the side of the castle .

This kind of castle wall was basically useless against Origin Qi Scholars . Scaling the wall was an easy feat — with just a few leaps, the group of people quickly reached the top of the wall .

The person at the very front slashed at Zhu Xianyao with his blade . The blade surged with majestic momentum, carrying with it a strong killing intent .

At this moment, Zhu Xianyao had already begun to react . She slammed her palm into the ground, sending herself shooting into the air to dodge that strike .

At the same time, two more people charged forwards, their swords glinting with a sharp, piercing light . The edges of their swords glowed frostily .

Zhu Xianyao retreated .

Her bare hands unleashed a wave of energy . At the same time, a shrill screech escaped from her mouth . She was obviously calling out for reinforcements .

However, the other opponents also knew that their window to kill her was growing slimmer . A wave of massive energy surged forward, blocking off Zhu Xianyao’s front, back, left, and right, making it so that she had no way of maneuvering at all .

At the same time, the first three assailants simultaneously raised their blades and swung them at Zhu Xianyao .

Zhu Xianyao knew the situation wasn’t good . In the face of such desperate circumstances, she revealed a pitiful expression . When the three assassins saw this, they actual froze briefly for just a moment .

“Idiots! Wake up!” A low growl shook the three of them simultaneously out of her reverie .

However, in this brief moment of hesitation, Zhu Xianyao had already attacked . Layers of energy began to emanate from her hands, slamming into one of the assailants and knocking him flying . She immediately turned around and jabbed her finger at another assailant . That person responded with a sword strike, forcefully blocking the finger jab from advancing . At the same time, the third person’s sword rushed over . Zhu Xianyao wanted to activate her charm skill again, but a sudden shrill cry pierced into her consciousness .

She could only hear the noise, but couldn’t actually see the person who had made the noise .

As if she had been pierced by a needle, Zhu Xianyao felt her head suddenly hurt, and she was unable to activate her charm skill in that moment . The assassin’s sword was already on its way towards her, carrying with it a strong killing intent . A sensation of despair creeped its way into Zhu Xianyao’s heart .

At that moment, a fat body figure suddenly flashed in front of her, slamming heavily into the assailant .

“DON’T HURT MY YAOYAO!” Following this deep growl, two entwined figures tumbled over the wall of the castle .

“Tianyang!” Zhu Xianyao yelled .

Whoosh!

Another arrow flew through the air .

Zhu Xianyao already flew into the air . A ray of golden light began to shine from her body .

The arrow slammed into her body but was unable to penetrate it .

Streaks of sharp blade light surged through the air, chasing after Zhu Xianyao .

One, two, three!

Under the power of these three blade strikes, Zhu Xianyao’s ray of golden light protecting her shattered .

The blade strikes continued to chase after Zhu Xianyao, who danced through the air as she retreated .

This cry had also shocked the people in the castle into motion . Zhao Jingwen was the first one to charge out . His eyes turned red from rage when he saw this and charged forwards, his long spear surging forward .

This cry had also shocked the people in the castle into motion . Zhao Jingwen was the first one to charge out . His eyes turned red from rage when he saw this and charged forwards, his long spear surging forward .

The spear roared forward like a dragon, slamming into the blade strikes flying through the air and unleashing a frightening ripple of energy .

Zhao Jingweng was forced backwards .

The most shocking thing was that a fifth blade strike had appeared .

It was aimed at Zhu Xianyao again . It seemed that the assailant wasn’t going to return if he didn’t kill Zhu Xianyao .

Just as this fifth blade strike was about to land, a massive hand made out of sand appeared, grabbing the streak of blade light .

That blade of light struggled in the grasp of the massive hand of sand as if it were alive . In the end, the hand of sand actually couldn’t maintain its control and it was eventually shattered by the blade and blew away in the wind, disappearing without a trace .

“Raise the defensive barrier!” Culler yelled loudly .

Boom!

A third arrow shot through the air, but it slammed right into the barrier .

The people in the shadows knew that their assassination attempt had failed . One of them barked, “Retreat!”, and their attacks ceased .

“Trying to leave so soon?” A trace of anger appeared on Culler’s face .

The massive hand of sand appeared again, wrapping itself around the blade-wielding assassin, while Zhao Jingwen’s Cloud-Rending Spear had managed to restrain the sword-wielding assassin .

Zhu Xianyao ran towards the edge of the castle wall and looked down . She saw “You Tianyang” flat on his face near the castle walls, while the assassin that had been tossed by him off the castle walls had been killed . Upon closer inspection, he had died from a severed spine . Perhaps he was unlucky and his head had hit the ground first, causing his neck to snap upon impact .

When she saw this, Zhu Xianyao sighed in relief .

As long as You Tianyang was fine, that was good enough .

As long as You Tianyang was fine, that was good enough .

Just the fact that he had saved her, not to mention his own identity, had greatly increased Zhu Xianyao’s feelings of goodwill towards him .

The two of the other assassins knew that they wouldn’t be able to escape and decisively turned their blades on themselves . They would rather die than fall into the hands of their enemies .

Now that all the assassins were dead, Zhao Jingwen ran over . “Young Miss, are you okay?”

Zhu Xianyao’s expression was steely . “I’m alright, but unfortunately I had to burn the Protective Gold Talisman from Mother . ”

“It’s all my fault . I wasn’t able to protect Young Miss well enough!” Zhao Jingwen said with immense regret .

“Forget about it . It’s not your fault . This time it’s all thanks to Tianyang — he was the one who saved me; otherwise, that first arrow probably would have taken my life . I wouldn’t have even had the opportunity to activate my protective golden talisman . ”

“He also has a Demonic Emperor Bloodline . Even if it hasn’t awakened yet, he is still not a commoner,” Zhao Jingwen said respectfully and went to go grab Su Chen .

Culler also walked over, his expression somber . “I must apologize to you all . It seems that your sister really does want to kill you . You should be a bit more cautious . ”

“They attacked just after Sixth Uncle left . It seems like they really were growing impatient . ” Zhu Xianyao’s expression was extremely ugly . She hadn’t expected a second attack to occur, but her opponents didn’t seem willing to spare her and wouldn’t leave her alone until she was dead .

Even Su Chen, who was being supported back by Zhao Jingwen, had an ashen expression .

Assassination!

There had actually been an assassination!

There had actually been a damn assassination!

And he had saved Zhu Xianyao!

What was going on?

Su Chen suddenly felt quite dizzy . The development of the situation had far surpassed his expectation .

Su Chen suddenly felt quite dizzy . The development of the situation had far surpassed his expectation .

Zhu Xianyao walked over . “Tianyang, are you alright?”

Su Chen rubbed his head and revealed a dumb smile . “I’m alright . My body is thick, so I’m okay . It’s just my shoulder that was wounded a bit . ”

As he spoke, he revealed his fat arm . Indeed, the flesh on his shoulder had been mangled and was very bloody .

Even though it looked quite shocking, it was still just a light wound .

Zhu Xianyao pulled out a vial medicine . “This is the Jade Dragon Powder . Don’t worry, you’ll be fine very soon once you rub it on . ”

As she spoke, she leaned in to apply the medicine to Su Chen personally .

Her hands were slender, and her touch was gentle and warm . As she kneaded Su Chen’s arm, Su Chen felt his jaw go slack .

Even thought it was just an instant, Su Chen maintained this expression . He knew that if this was You Tianyang, he would definitely act a bit more depraved .

Zhu Xianyao watched as “You Tianyang” stared at her in a daze, his mouth opening wide as a satisfied smile appeared on his face . A bit of drool also leaked out of his mouth……

The goodwill that she was feeling towards him decreased quite a bit . Zhu Xianyao glared at him and stuffed the medicine into Su Chen’s hand . “Put it on yourself . ”

Su Chen knew that his acting had been a bit over-the-top, but this was also his original intent .

No matter what, he didn’t wish to become too close to Zhu Xianyao .

After all, Zhu Xianyao finding him a nuisance was much better than her liking him .

But even if he wanted things to be like that, reality often turned out to be the exact opposite .
