Chen Palace

Chapter 22
Fragments of the Osmanthus osmanthus tree hit behind him like a torrential rain, and the two long whips seemed to have spirituality.

The long whip entangled like a snake, and the two sisters' ankles froze and they fell to the ground.

The other party's mind was really vicious, and he saw that the two girls were not familiar with martial arts, so he decided to start with them.

Lin Chen slashed away with his sword, and the long whip wrapped the two of them in a whirl, and returned to the dark place at the entrance of the alley.

"Little girl, you shot too hard, leave these two behind."

The mysterious man was wrapped in black veil and quietly appeared five feet behind him.

He rolled back the long whip with both hands, and tightened his fingers. Their throats were firmly strangled, and it was difficult to breathe.

"Abandon the sword and surrender, otherwise, I will break the neck bones of these two people and let their heads fall to the ground."

The difficult and weird accent sounds like a ghost in legends in the dark.

"Let them go!"

"You Central Plains people always like to say useless words. When we entered the capital, those people were always begging. You only have mouths, but no strength."

"Let them go!"

"You can either surrender, and the prince ordered that it is best to capture them alive. Or, if you kill me, they will be free."

"You are already dead."

"Wh...what!"

The man's whole body trembled, his withered hands waved, and finally he couldn't hold on to the long whip, so he let it go.

He fell to the ground with a bang, black blood spilled from the corner of his mouth, flowing silently on the blue stone slab.

Lin Chen untied the whips around the two sisters, pulled them up and left.

"Why did he die?"

asked the curious twin sister.

"The scent of Osmanthus is strong, through the long whip to his nose, mixed with 'Jade Hu', within three steps, kills people."

"When did that 'Jade Hu' come to her?"

"I dusted the powder on your wrists."

Lin Chen smiled under the cover of the black scarf, a little proud - the 'Jade Hu' she created was so powerful that it finally caught the attention of such masters.

Before her smile subsided, she could only hear a low growl behind her, screaming like a beast like a mastiff, she turned to look——

The black gauze monster, who was supposed to die on the spot, was convulsing and writhing in a pool of blood.

There was a puff of green smoke, and the man made a crackling sound all over his body, as if he was melting and shrinking. He smiled strangely and slowly got up.

"Not enough to kill me..."

His body was open and bloody, obviously smaller than before, and obviously also suffered a lot of injuries.

"Don't look!!" The older sister covered her younger sister's eyes, Lin Chen made a decisive decision, said "Go", dragged the two of them and ran away.

The terrifying laughter came from behind: "Little girl, run slowly, I will cut you into pieces..."

Lin Chen led them to run in the dark night, and the pampered two sisters were already out of breath.

This is not the way, Lin Chen thought calmly, saw the gate of a quaint house by the road, and had an idea
She led the two of them into the house at the corner, ran all the way, and came to the hall, and saw the whole family with their hands tied behind their backs, lying in a pool of blood, their bodies were already frozen, apparently they had been dead for several days.

Lin Chen lit the candles, sat on the bed, bent over and quickly picked up the scattered black and white pieces.

"This old man is a national chess player. Unfortunately, in this troubled world, life is like ants."

Lin Chen had come here to talk before, and he was a little bit sad when he saw the dead body of an acquaintance.

"Why are you here?"

Lin Chen glanced at the two sisters, and smiled eeriely:
"The one who sent him to die."

As she spoke, her subordinates kept on pointing to the two sisters to lift up all the heavy objects in sight, such as screens, desks, etc., and arrange them in strange circles.

She had just covered the only gap with the curtain embroidered with green irises, when she heard the door of the house bang, as if it had been split open by something, the sound made teeth ache.

The smell of blood drifted into the nose, and the sound of heavy breathing, mixed with terrifying laughter, gradually approached.

The elder sister tightly hugged the younger sister who was shaking into chaff, and Lin Chen's palms were also a little cold sweat——

I have only seen Master's Zhuge Bagua Formation twice, so don't make mistakes.

I only heard the man walk into the hall, his low roar was full of anger, he faced the wall and waved his arms vigorously, Lin Chen knew that he must feel that there were barriers all around him at this time, blinding his eyes.

He knocked for a while, but found nothing but a hole in the masonry. He became anxious, and even swung the chessboard and danced wildly.

Lin Chen looked through the gap and knew something was wrong, only heard the sound of objects falling to the ground, and the three of them immediately had nowhere to hide.

The mangled monster laughed loudly and rushed over.

It was too late to say it, but it was soon, Lin Chen went up straight and received the claw with his left shoulder.

In the blink of an eye, there was only a bone crack, and the air flow in the hall whirled, and the strong wind returned to one place - where she was.

The man was about to laugh, but the next moment, he saw Lin Chen smiling.

It was a winning smile that almost regarded him as dead.

In the dim candlelight, countless black and white dots, like a rainstorm, flew out of Lin Chen's sleeve and penetrated deeply into his chest.

These are the ancient chess pieces cherished by the owner of the house. They are carved from white jade. They were born in the prosperous and prosperous Tang Dynasty and died in this troubled times.

The giant man fell down with a few chess pieces embedded in his chest.

"It's a pity that this treasure of the Tang Dynasty was destroyed in my hands today."

Lin Chen showed a guilty expression, and the two girls were also sad.

The wind will always be blown away by the rain and the wind.

Just like this ancient relic, like the chess player who died quietly in the hall, even more like this picturesque country full of devastation, thousands of miles across Kyushu.

Light footsteps came from the ruined front yard.

Lin Chen stroked the messy hair on his forehead wearily, and spat out another mouthful of blood.

In the darkness, her eyes were as clear as usual.

Just like, the land of the extreme north, from ancient times to the present, thousands of years of ice and snow.

The claw just now soaked up the strange person's decades of hard work, it was an extremely vicious skill in the "Maha Sect", and it was not something she could handle at all.

In the midst of all the silence, another voice sounded.

There was a person walking slowly from the front yard with unhurried steps.

"You came to kill me too?"

"No."

It was a young man in a white robe. He was not as tough and rough as an ordinary Tatar. His facial features were deeply embedded, his eyes were piercing, and he was handsome.

——It is almost the son of the god who shines in the world in the Tatar legend.

He walked leisurely, as if strolling in a garden, and walked into the hall.

He is really the first-rate figure in the world.

"I am Kulu, son of the Great Khan."

He is frank and easy to speak his name without any arrogance.

"My servant has never returned, so I came to find out. I didn't expect that the capital is really a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger."

He smiled and looked at Lin Chen: "You are really powerful. In time, few people in the world will be your opponent."

"Prince, if you make a move now, I am not your enemy in ten strokes."

Lin Chen frankly stated his injury, the two sisters gasped, their eyes filled with tears.

Prince Hulu smiled: "You could have escaped on your own, you shouldn't be carrying two burdens."

Lin Chen glanced at him, Prince Hulu felt a cold light coming, like ice and snow on a high mountain, but it was inexplicable.

He had never been so surprised—a girl of twelve or thirteen years old had such eyes!

"Your name is?"

For the first time in his life, he asked.

Lin Chen didn't answer.

"'When it's over, just go and hide your body and name?' Is this what you Han people do?"

Prince Hulu calmly recited the famous lines of Shixian, with some sarcasm.

Lin Chen couldn't help laughing.

"Prince Hulu... don't tell me you always ask his name before killing someone? If so,"

Her eyes turned sharp, and Sen Leng's murderous intent spewed out in an instant——

"Have the names of tens of millions of people in this capital ever lingered in your ears?!!!"

Following this loud questioning, her sword was out of its sheath.

Hu Lu looked at this little girl, she had not yet grown up, her figure only reached his chest, but she had such courage.

Those eyes... are so heavenly and earthly, unique, they almost take in the soul of a person.

He smiled, and looked deeply at Lin Chen again:

"Are you interested in playing a game?"

He seems to want to look into the depths of the eyes, where the soul is, and plunder this cold——

"If you take these two with you, you will definitely not be able to escape from the city. Instead of dying together, let's make a bet."

"You leave these two people behind. I won't touch them. You can leave first. After a moment, I will personally hunt you down. If you can escape, I will release you immediately. If so, you will be caught by me,"

"You must swear to me to be my subordinate."

Lin Chen looked at him thoughtfully.

It's a dangerous bet, but... there's a silver lining.

"How can I trust you?"

"I made an oath in the name of my ancestors. If I break this promise, all the descendants of my golden family (note) will perish."

This bet was really weird, but Lin Chen agreed.

Nine deaths, but also the only chance.

Take the two sisters out of town?

Lin Chen thought it would be difficult for Master, let alone her.

"You must live! I am Qing Min, and this is my younger sister Xuan Min."

When parting, among the twin sisters, the resolute elder sister said to Lin Chen.

In a few words, the truth is inside.

The sisters are almost exactly the same, the only difference is that the eyes of the younger sister Xuan Min are double eyes.
