The heavens set sail from the courtyard

Wang Gang used his hand as a sword and slashed out with sword energy, which hit Yan Xiaoyi's longbow. The huge force not only cut Yan Xiaoyi's hard bow, but also shattered his armor, and the fragments flew all around.

Li Yunrui screamed: "Stop!"

Yan Xiaoyi instantly spat out a mouthful of blood and half-knelt on the ground.

Li Yunrui anxiously ran to Yan Xiaoyi and asked with concern: "Are you okay?"

Wang Gang smiled and said, "Princess, please rest assured. When beating a dog, you should look at its owner first. Moreover, Commander Yan will be responsible for guarding the banquet tomorrow. He must not get hurt at this time."

Yan Xiaoyi took a deep breath and realized that his internal organs were fine. He immediately said to Li Yunrui: "Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. I am fine."

Li Yunrui breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Yan Xiaoyi stand up.

At this time, she noticed that many people were running towards this side, so she quickly turned around and said to Wang Gang: "Go quickly, I will make arrangements for tomorrow's affairs."

Wang Gang smiled, clasped his fists and said to Li Yunrui: "Thank you very much, Your Highness."

After saying that, Wang Gang broke through the roof of the palace like a shovel of onion in dry land, turned into a trail of afterimage, and ran out of the palace.

"Catch the assassin."

A large number of palace guards saw Wang Gang and chased after him.

It was a common scene for assassins to run into the Qing Palace every two or three days. The palace maids and eunuchs were very calm, except for a group of guards who ran to Li Yunrui's bedroom.

Not long after Li Yunrui sent the guards away, Emperor Qing sent Eunuch Hou to inquire about the situation.

"Your Highness, His Majesty heard that an assassin had broken into your palace and was very worried, so he sent me here to express his condolences." Eunuch Hou glanced at Yan Xiaoyi, whose clothes were torn, and asked curiously, "Why is Commander Yan here?"

Yan Xiaoyi replied: "I discovered an assassin disguised as a eunuch and sneaked into the princess's bedroom. I followed him all the way, but unfortunately he got away."

Eunuch Hou was surprised and asked, "What kind of assassin could make Commander Yan so embarrassed? Are you the best archer in Qing Kingdom?"

Yan Xiaoyi narrowed his eyes, and couldn't help but think of the sword energy that Wang Gang had slashed out, and his heart couldn't help but feel a chill.

As one of the top ninth-rank masters in the world, Yan Xiaoyi relies on his archery skills. He cannot say that he is the best in the world, but as long as the grandmaster does not take action, he is the strongest.

But just now, Yan Xiaoyi felt the threat of death. The sword energy that Wang Gang slashed out seemed ordinary, but in fact it was not simple at all. Even a ninth-rank master did not dare to take it head-on.

For the first time, Yan Xiaoyi felt the huge gap between the grandmaster and the ninth rank.

However, Yan Xiaoyi was also a little confused. The fighting power displayed by Wang Gang seemed to be slightly worse than that of a true grandmaster. Otherwise, the sword energy just now should not only have shattered his armor, but should have been able to cut him in half.

Seeing Yan Xiaoyi was in a daze and did not answer his question, Eunuch Hou could not help but ask: "Where was Commander Yan injured by the assassin? Do you want to ask the imperial physician to take a look?"

Li Yunrui said: "Commander Yan was hit by an assassin in order to protect me, but he is not seriously injured."

Yan Xiaoyi reacted and said to Eunuch Hou: "Yes, I am not injured. Although the assassin is strong, he can't hurt me."

"That's good." Eunuch Hou was relieved and turned to Li Yunrui and said, "Don't worry, Princess. The Queen Mother has sent Eunuch Hong to chase the assassin. I believe he will be caught soon."

Li Yunrui's hand hidden in his sleeve trembled slightly, but fortunately it was not discovered by Eunuch Hou.

There have been rumors that eunuch Hong Siyang, a favorite of the Empress Dowager, is the fourth greatest grandmaster in the world.

Li Yunrui was worried that if Hong Siyang took action, she would really be able to catch up with Wang Gang. Not only would this delay her important plans, but it would also be troublesome if Emperor Qing knew that she was in contact with the Dark River killer.

"Thank you for the Empress Dowager's concern. I will go to see her now." Li Yunrui stood up and wanted to go to the Empress Dowager's bedroom.

"Your Highness," said Lord Hou, "The assassin has not been caught yet. You are so precious. Don't take any risks. You should wait until the assassin is caught before you go to pay your respects to the Queen Mother."

Li Yunrui stopped and slowly sat back down.

"I hope the people in Anhe won't be caught by Hong Siyang." Li Yunrui said worriedly.

…………

Wang Gang ran for a while and avoided the pursuit of the palace guards. As soon as he hid in a palace, he felt that he was locked by a force of energy.

The energy was extremely powerful, like a fishhook that held on to the fish tightly and Wang Gang couldn't get rid of it no matter how hard he tried.

"Your Excellency is very capable. You have evaded the numerous secret guards in the palace. Even I almost lost you." A voice came through the wall.

Wang Gang saw that he couldn't get rid of the other party, so he simply walked out of the house, and then he saw an old eunuch. "Hong Siyang." Wang Gang said confidently.

"Do you know me, Excellency?" the old eunuch asked curiously.

"There are only so many ninth-grade masters in the palace. I just met Yan Xiaoyi." Wang Gang said easily.

The old eunuch Hong Siyang asked in confusion: "I see that you are not very old, and your cultivation has already broken through the ninth level. Who can train a young master like you? Could it be Si Gu Jian?"

Wang Gang laughed and said, "Why don't you guess Ku He and Ye Liuyun?"

Hong Siyang shook his head and said: "Ku He is the imperial teacher of Northern Qi. If he sends someone into the palace to assassinate him, it will definitely cause a war between the two countries. He is not that stupid.

As for Ye Liuyun, his Ye family has been blessed by the emperor, and his nephew Ye Chong is still serving His Majesty, so it is even more impossible for him to do such a thing. "

Wang Gang laughed and said, "So you're just guessing Si Gu Jian? What if I'm not Si Gu Jian's man? Wouldn't he have to take the blame?"

Hong Siyang said: "I really can't think of anyone other than the Grand Master who can train a ninth-grade master like you."

"Why don't you guess that I'm the grandmaster?" Wang Gang asked back.

Hong Siyang pinched his throat and laughed: "If you were a grandmaster, you wouldn't have to run away.

Back then, Si Gu Jian broke into the palace at night and assassinated His Majesty. No one could stop him, but in the end he walked away in a swagger."

Wang Gang asked curiously: "Si Gu Jian has done such a thing before, so why didn't he kill Emperor Qing back then? Was he stopped by you?"

Hong Siyang's face darkened and he said angrily: "You talk too much nonsense, just surrender and save me the trouble."

Wang Gang shook his head and said, "You are quite confident. You dare to come and arrest me alone."

Hong Siyang laughed and said, "I am enough to catch you."

After saying that, Hong Siyang swung out with his palm, and the fierce palm force blocked all the major acupoints on Wang Gang's body.

Wang Gang casually raised his right palm and faced Hong Siyang.

boom.

A huge noise was heard, Hong Siyang's face changed, his body flew backwards, and he somersaulted several times in the air.

Wang Gang on the other side did not move his feet at all, and was calm and composed. The difference in cultivation level between the two was immediately apparent.

Hong Siyang finally landed on the ground and stood firmly. His chest was churning and his throat was surging, and he almost vomited blood.

"You, you." Hong Siyang pointed his finger at Wang Gang. He was so angry that he couldn't even finish a sentence.

The clothes on Wang Gang's right arm suddenly tore, revealing the prosthetic limb made of fine iron.

Click!

The prosthetic limb trembled slightly, and a crack appeared. Then the crack grew bigger and bigger, spreading like a spider web and shattered to the ground.

Hong Siyang was even more horrified. He looked at Wang Gang's empty right arm and shouted, "Impossible! You are disabled. How can you break through to the Grandmaster level?"

Wang Gang shook his head regretfully and said to himself: "It is still not strong enough when made of fine iron. It will break when it touches the palm of a ninth-grade peak master."

"Who are you?" Hong Siyang stared at Wang Gang sinisterly, like a jackal staring at its prey.

Wang Gang smiled and said, "You are quite perceptive. You can actually tell that I am not a Grandmaster. But unfortunately, you are not a Grandmaster either."

Hong Siyang shouted: "You must stay today."

Wang Gang said contemptuously: "You can't keep me, but the great master hiding in the palace has a chance."

Hong Siyang's face changed, and he stopped talking nonsense. He made claws with his hands and clawed at him like an eagle. He burst out with all his strength at the peak of the ninth level. Both his strength and speed were far beyond the limit of the ninth level.

“I don’t want to play with you anymore.” Wang Gang finally got serious. A huge momentum burst out, and the heaven and earth suddenly responded, and a huge amount of vital energy swept down.

A wolf howl sounded between heaven and earth, and the huge sound shook the four directions.

At the same time, Emperor Qing, who had been lying on the bed, suddenly jumped up and looked in the direction of Wang Gang and Hong Siyang in shock. (End of this chapter)
