Gou Zai's journey to the heavens in the world of cultivating immortals

Chapter 43 One Man Enemy

"you you."

The middle-aged martial artist looked at Chen Ming in front of him, with disbelief written all over his face: "How is this possible?"

He was already a master of martial arts, and he thought that even a peak martial artist could fight for a while, but just now he was easily defeated, without even the slightest ability to resist.

Grandmaster?

He shuddered suddenly and couldn't believe it.

"Are you from the Xuanyin Sect?"

Chen Ming looked at the middle-aged martial artist in front of him thoughtfully.

When he was in Liangzhou City, he used the pseudonym Xiao Yan and had dealings with these Xuanyin Sect people.

But the experience is not that good.

Looking at the other party's appearance, Chen Ming had no interest in chatting in detail. He waved his hand directly and a short knife flew out, killing the other party.

A martial artist who was comparable to a fourth-level Qi Refining monk died.

After doing all this, Chen Ming turned around and his eyes fell on Zhao Yue.

"Mr. Chen."

When the woman saw Chen Ming, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief and became a little excited: "His Majesty passed away. The prince was going to the palace to deal with his funeral affairs, but they plotted against him."

From her mouth, Chen Ming also learned the full story of the incident.

Zhao Wu was killed on his way to the palace.

Because the Emperor of Great Liang has passed away, as long as he enters the palace, he will be the legitimate next emperor.

It is natural to inherit the position of emperor as a prince.

However, just when everyone thought the dust had settled, the third prince showed up.

Colluding with the Xuanyin Sect, he intercepted Zhao Wu on the way and killed Zhao Wu on the way into the palace.

After Zhao Wu died, the prince was leaderless and was immediately defeated.

Standing there, Chen Ming was speechless after hearing all this.

"So, even when the wind is favorable, people cannot wave."

Chen Ming sighed secretly: "Be cautious, this is the kingly way."

Zhao Wu's death is indeed very regrettable, but in Chen Ming's view, it was largely self-inflicted.

As a prince, at the moment when he was about to succeed to the throne, Chen Ming did not believe that he could not think of the other princes who might make the final blow.

With Zhao Wu's wisdom and methods, he could probably think of it, but he just didn't pay attention to it.

Maybe he thought that after the old emperor died, the situation had been decided, and the other princes would accept their fate honestly.

So he didn't even take any precautions and walked directly into the palace in a swagger.

This was done so crudely that Chen Ming was unable to complain.

If it were him, at this final moment, where he was only one step away from the final victory, he would bring all the masters around him with him, which would be safe enough.

The third prince has the Xuanyin Sect's support behind him. Is there no one behind you, the prince?

how is this possible.

Leaving aside others, Chen Ming alone, based on his relationship with Zhao Wu, would definitely show up with dignity as long as Zhao Wu said hello.

But in the end, he did nothing.

Chen Ming sighed silently, not knowing what to say.

In front of him, Zhao Yue was lying in the woman's arms, already falling into a deep sleep.

If you look closely, you will find that there are tears in the corners of this child's eyes.

Today's experience may be too exciting for a child.

"What are the princess's plans?"

Looking at Zhao Yue sleeping in front of him, Chen Ming spoke softly.

"What else can a person who has lost his family have any plans for?"

The Crown Princess smiled bitterly: "My eldest son has been killed. My only hope now is that I hope Yue'er can grow up well and not follow in his father's footsteps."

"As for anything else, I don't dare to ask for anything else."

"What if there is still a chance?"

Chen Ming looked at the Crown Princess and suddenly smiled.

"If so."

The Crown Princess's face suddenly became solemn, and then she knelt down with a plop: "Even if I die, I will remember your kindness, sir. You are Yue'er's reborn parents. From now on, I will treat you as Yue'er's reborn parents." Father serves him.”

Chen Ming nodded, did not speak, and just turned around silently.

The Crown Princess hugged Zhao Yue and quickly followed.

Both of them are smart people, and they have reached a tacit understanding without needing too many words.

Outside the prince's residence, the third prince looked ahead and suddenly felt something was wrong.

"Why did it suddenly become quiet?"

He looked at the mansion in front of him, feeling increasingly uneasy. The next moment, the door of the mansion began to open, revealing the scene inside.

Inside the mansion, corpses were everywhere.

But those corpses were clearly subordinates of the third prince.

A figure walked out of it, it was none other than Chen Ming.

He walked out of the gate and slowly approached the third prince, getting closer and closer.

"stop!"

The third prince looked at Chen Ming and issued a warning.

Of course he knew Chen Ming, and because of his acquaintance, he felt even more uneasy at this moment.

He felt an extreme sense of danger from Chen Ming in front of him.

Seeing that something was not going well, the guards on the side rushed forward and tried to block Chen Ming.

A slight sound came out, like sharp wind.

In mid-air, the sword light passed by, and under the blessing of the power of Qi and blood, the sword light was like blood, and it fell quickly.

In just an instant, more than a dozen people died instantly.

"Master Zong!"

A martial artist stared at Chen Ming in front of him with wide eyes, his face full of disbelief.

The next moment, a sword flashed past, and a head was destroyed, symbolizing the death of a martial artist.

In just the blink of an eye, the guards who originally surrounded the third prince suffered heavy casualties, leaving only a few scattered ones.

"If you don't want to die, just kneel on the ground."

Chen Ming held the knife, with no trace of blood stained on his body, and with a faint smile on his face, he walked forward slowly, his eyes always fixed on the third prince: "I only want his life."

"no no!"

The third prince's face was full of horror: "I am the prince of Great Liang. If you kill me, you are an enemy of Great Liang. My ancestor will not let you go!"

He half begged, half threatened.

It seemed that his words had an effect, and Chen Ming paused.

He looked at the third prince in front of him, with an expression on his face that seemed to be a smile but not a smile. He only gave a cold response: "So what if I am your enemy in Great Liang?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the long sword was as fast as lightning and slashed down directly.

boom!
A human head settled down and rolled on the ground, making a crisp sound.

Behind Chen Ming, the Crown Princess was holding Zhao Yue, looking at the scene in front of her in a daze.

The majestic Prince of Daliang was only one step away from ascending the throne as emperor after killing the crown prince, but in front of Chen Ming, he was like a pig or a dog, and his head was easily beheaded.

"Is this the Grandmaster?"

She murmured to herself, looking at Chen Ming in front of her, a different color couldn't help but appear in her eyes.

At this moment, the sound of horse hooves roared in the distance. An army heard the news and rushed towards this place quickly.

The leading general saw the corpse on the ground and immediately let out a roar.

An army of two thousand people surrounded Chen Ming and the others.

The color of the Crown Princess's face suddenly changed, her entire face became extremely pale, and she seemed to have no blood at all.

Chen Ming's expression did not change.

He just clenched the knife in his hand and rushed forward.

Attacking an organized army with one person's power was something that Chen Ming could not do at the martial arts master stage, and even if he could do it, it would be very difficult.

But now, it seems that I can give it a try.

So that day, after the death of the prince, another horrifying news came out.

Outside the prince's residence, a grandmaster suddenly appeared and beheaded the third prince with a single blow.

The rebel army started a rebellion and attempted to capture the Crown Princess alive, but was attacked by the Grand Master alone and defeated head-on.

The 2,000-man military formation was defeated on the spot, with most of them dead and wounded.

Daliang City, inside the imperial palace.

Chen Ming, covered in blood, walked here dignifiedly.

Facing the charge of the army, even with the power of a master, it is inevitable to be stained with blood.

Fortunately, it was all other people's blood, it just looked uglier, so Chen Ming didn't care.

Taking the Crown Princess and Zhao Yue with him, he walked to the palace in an upright manner.

After reaching this step, things are basically settled.

Although Prince Zhao Wu died, his party members and influence were still there. In just one day, they had not yet been completely purged and disintegrated.

With the head of the third prince and the positive support of a grand master, the Crown Princess led Zhao Yue into the palace, and it was destined that no one could stop her.

In terms of status, she is the Crown Princess, and Zhao Yue is also the Crown Prince's only child, so it is natural for her to inherit Daliang.

In terms of strength, with the support of a genuine grandmaster, who would dare to question the record of one person breaking the army?
