Supreme Return

Chapter 1178 Sudden assassination, finally meeting Han Ying

The carriage continued to move forward and arrived at Dongyuan Town in the afternoon, but they did not stop, but headed towards the east of Dongyuan Town.

"That's it, Xiao Liu, you go back first!"

Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Chu Xuan signaled for the carriage to stop, and gave instructions to Xiao Liu who was driving.

"Yes, Master!"

Xiao Liu didn't dare to ask more questions. After Chu Xuan and Zhao Ran got out of the car, he drove towards the way he came.

"Brother Xuan, what are you doing?"

Zhao Ran asked dumbfounded, "The carriages are gone, shall we drive on two legs?"

What he actually wanted to say was, with just the two of them and their four legs, could they catch up with Han Ying?

"Don't worry, Brother Ran!"

Chu Xuan smiled and said, "I can know Miss Han's location at any time now! It's getting late now, let's rest first, and there's still time to continue our journey tomorrow morning!"

"Can……"

Zhao Ran was startled when he heard the words, his heart and mind are full of Han Ying now, how would he want to rest?
I really wish I could fly to Han Ying's side right away!

I'm afraid even if I let him go to sleep now, he won't be able to sleep at all...

"Don't worry, I have arrangements!"

Chu Xuan smiled and said, "I promise, I will let you see Miss Han within two days at most, how good is that?"

"Really?"

Hearing Chu Xuan's words, Zhao Ran's eyes lit up.

Chu Xuan didn't say anything more, just took out some food and ate with Zhao Ran.

It's night, the moon and stars are sparse, shining with rays of light.

And no one passed by near the woods, showing a bit of silence.

For Chu Xuan, sleeping outside was already commonplace, but as the crown prince, Zhao Ran was often in the palace or the prince's mansion. Even if he could go out, he would be followed closely by a large group of people. Has he ever had such an experience?

It is undeniable that besides thinking about Han Ying, Zhao Ran was indeed curious.

"Brother Xuan, do you think the stars in the sky are really formed by every dead person?"

Lying on the ground covered with some dead leaves, Zhao Ran put his hands on the back of his head and looked at the sky, and asked softly.

"no!"

Chu Xuan shook his head directly, how can a person turn into a star after death?This is undoubtedly just a beautiful dream of people.

"Then what are these stars? Do they represent something?" Zhao Ran continued to ask.

"Maybe it's just a kind of beauty!"

Chu Xuan sighed softly and replied.

If it was on the earth in the previous life, he would definitely say that it was just a planet in the universe, but now he really doesn't know how to explain it.

"Then tell me, what will happen if I die?" Zhao Ran asked after a pause.

"Why do you ask that?"

Chu Xuan heard this, but suddenly turned to look at Zhao Ran, a little stunned.

"Just chatting casually!"

Zhao Ran chuckled, "What? Brother Xuan, don't you really think I want to die?"

"Cough cough..."

Chu Xuan coughed a few times speechlessly, and said, "How would I know what will happen after death?"

... Neither of them seemed to be sleepy, chatting in various ways until late at night.

Suddenly, there were a few sounds in the quiet environment, not loud but heard clearly by Chu Xuan, but at the corner of his mouth, there was an evil smile that others could not see.

"Is it finally here?"

Chu Xuan gently closed his eyes, but his spiritual consciousness spread rapidly, "Five people, three eighth-level and two seventh-level! Tsk tsk..."

"Brother Xuan, why do I feel something is wrong?"

Zhao Ran suddenly said.

"That's because someone is here!"

Chu Xuan turned over with a smile, but Zhao Ran's face suddenly changed after hearing this.

"Since everyone is here, let's all show up!"

Chu Xuan signaled Zhao Ran to be calm, and then said in a cold voice.

"kill!"

I'm afraid he didn't expect to be discovered. The moment Chu Xuan's voice fell, a voice rang out suddenly, and then five figures came out from the darkness in front of them.

The offensive of these five people instantly enveloped Chu Xuan and Zhao Ran.

Obviously, this has already been arranged. It looks well-trained, and it doesn't look like an ordinary attack at all!

"Brother Ran, back off first!"

Chu Xuan motioned for Zhao to retreat, but before he finished speaking, Zhao Ran pulled out a soft sword from his waist, and went directly to meet those people.

This scene made Chu Xuan dumbfounded.

clang clang...

The next moment, Zhao Ran was fighting fiercely with those five people, while Chu Xuan became a bystander instead.

Zhao Ran is an eighth-level warrior, and it is almost impossible to fight five against one.

Moreover, he doesn't have much fighting experience.

Therefore, Zhao Ran soon fell into a disadvantage, and Chu Xuan saw that his head was full of black lines. Isn't brother Ran too reckless?
But the most important thing is that Chu Xuan keenly discovered that these people's murderous intentions were all aimed at Zhao Ran, and they didn't have the slightest reservation in their actions from the beginning. They were completely thinking about putting Zhao Ran to death.

"Who is it?"

Chu Xuan frowned, thinking to himself.

"Brother Xuan, help!"

Zhao Ran's voice suddenly interrupted his thoughts, Chu Xuan smiled lightly, and then his figure suddenly disappeared on the spot, and then he heard several bangs of 'bang bang bang', and the five people were able to move in an instant. He was directly blasted into the air and crashed into several big trees one after another before falling to the ground.

Zhao Ran stared blankly at this scene, and he dared to swear that those people just now were absolutely in a state of confusion.

Chu Xuan, how could it be so strong?
Even Zhao Ran himself was stunned for a while.

Three eighth-level and two seventh-level fighters have no resistance at all.

"Brother Ran, are you okay?"

Chu Xuan came to Zhao Ran's side, and quickly healed his injuries with real essence.

"Ahem... No, nothing!"

Zhao Ran came back to his senses, and looked at Chu Xuan with wide eyes, "Brother Xuan, are you so strong?"

"Don't talk about me, even Wan'er can do it!" Chu Xuan shrugged and replied.

"Then these people, they..."

Zhao Ran turned to look at the five people in front, and the moment he was about to say something, those five people gritted their teeth at the same time, and then all of them changed their complexions in an instant, their whole bodies twitched, and they turned blue and black in three or two breaths. After shaking, those who lost all vitality turned into five corpses...

This scene, not to mention Zhao Ran, even Chu Xuan didn't expect it in advance.

Dead man!
This is an absolute killer!
Once the task fails, it will bite the poisonous poison sac in its mouth!
"Damn!"

Zhao Ran cursed angrily, and he still wanted to interrogate him.

Now, except for the five corpses, there is no information left at all, even if they carefully searched the five corpses with their own hands.

"Brother Ran, who do you think did it?" Chu Xuan asked.

"How can I know?"

Zhao Ran rolled his eyes speechlessly, and then his expression suddenly became serious, and he said through gritted teeth, "I came out with you this time in secret, and even my father and queen didn't notify me in advance! Anyone who knows the news , it can only be someone from my Prince's Mansion!"

"Not bad!"

Chu Xuan nodded and continued with a light smile, "Besides, they followed us all the way from the imperial capital to here! Although the people changed several times, they never stopped following them! The reason why I let Xiao Liu go back is because we Resting here is just to see what happened!"

"In other words, they have a plan, or in fact, they have already arranged an assassination plan for me, but they didn't find a suitable opportunity!"

Zhao Ran said in a deep voice, "And I'm giving them such a chance by coming out with you this time!"

"That's right! So there are nine out of ten people from the other side in your prince's mansion, and their status is not low!" Chu Xuan replied.

"damn it!"

Zhao Ran gritted his teeth and cursed, "When I go back this time, I must clean it up properly!"

When the voice fell, Zhao Ran thought of something, and suddenly said, "By the way, brother Xuan, do you think it was Zhao Lin who jumped over the wall in a hurry?"

"not sure!"

Chu Xuan thought for a while and said, "Brother Ran, don't worry, I have sent a letter back, and there will never be any problems in your Prince's Mansion! In addition, I will send someone to help monitor Zhao Lin, everything is waiting for you Handle it yourself! After you go back, I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer!"

"Ok!"

Chu Xuan's words made Zhao Ran put down the big stone in his heart.

There is no need to say thank you for the deep brotherhood between the two.

"Okay, let's continue to rest!"

Chu Xuan pinched the Yin Jue and popped up several flames, completely burning the corpses, and then the two continued to rest.

Seeing Chu Xuan's miraculous methods, Zhao Ran was indeed a little curious, but for him now, the more important thing was to find Han Ying as soon as possible and persuade her to go home together.

For the others, Zhao Ran didn't pay too much attention to them.

…………

"Brother Xuan, where should we go?"

After the assassination last night, Zhao Ran didn't feel any discomfort, instead he felt more energetic.

"I'll take you there, let's find Miss Han as soon as possible!"

Originally, Chu Xuan wanted to let Zhao Ran come out to practice. After all, he is the crown prince of the Qingyun Empire, and it would be of great benefit to him to know more about the people's sentiments in the future.

However, after the assassination incident happened last night, Chu Xuan didn't dare to be too careless.

The experience should wait until later, but now Zhao Ran is most concerned about Han Ying.

"You take me?"

Hearing Chu Xuan's words, Zhao Ran was stunned for a moment, and without waiting for him to say anything more, Chu Xuan gently grabbed his shoulder, and then directly used teleportation.

The figures of the two disappeared instantly, and when they reappeared, they were nearly a hundred miles away from the forest where they were just now...

"I, here, Brother Xuan, you..."

Because of Chu Xuan's protection, Zhao Ran didn't feel any discomfort. The moment he stabilized his figure, he was so surprised that he didn't know what to say.

"Hush... Brother Ran, look there..."

Chu Xuan put his index finger on his lips and gave a 'hush' sound, then pointed forward with a smile.

Zhao Ran looked in the direction of his finger, and a longing figure suddenly appeared in his line of sight. If it wasn't Han Ying, who was it?
