Empress: Your Majesty, please respect yourself, I don't want to be promoted

"Drive! Drive!!"

On the official road outside Yuzhou City, Chai Hongyu frequently brandished his whip and drove the horse galloping towards the direction of the extremely conspicuous Thundercloud of Heavenly Tribulation in the distance.

Behind her, there were nearly two hundred men with stern faces and strong spiritual power fluctuations, but they were dressed in linen and looked like civilians.

I don't know if it's because they are civilians, or because they didn't have time to change into the easy-to-move clothes that warriors often wear in a hurry.

"Miss Chai."

A big bearded man suddenly approached Chai Hongyu, and asked hesitantly, "Why are you calling us in such a hurry all of a sudden..."

"Save people!"

Chai Hongyu was clearly in a hurry, before the man finished speaking, he said anxiously: "Go save a good official who truly cares about the common people, is dedicated to the people, can overthrow this damn world, let all the people live and work in peace, and enjoy peace! !"

Hearing this, everyone couldn't help being slightly startled.

How could such a person exist in this world?

And still an official?

How can this be?

In today's world, will there still be good officials? And is it the kind of good official who is not asking for immortality, but really cares about poor people like them?

Are you kidding me?

Immediately afterwards, before they could react, Chai Hongyu said again: "I repeat, this action is entirely voluntary. If you are willing to believe me, don't talk nonsense if you follow me. If you don't want to, I will never force you to do so now." You can turn around and leave, I will not blame you!"

After finishing speaking, she didn't speak anymore, and directly stimulated the spiritual power in her body with all her strength, pouring it into the fast horse under her crotch.

In the next second, without knowing what spell Chai Hongyu used, the horse suddenly had red eyes and neighed at the same time.

Seeing the back of Chai Hongyu driving the horse wildly without any hesitation, everyone couldn't help but look at each other, but after a while, they still clamped the horse's belly and accelerated to catch up with Chai Hongyu.

And on the other side.

Under the thundercloud of heavenly tribulation.

"Um?"

Lu Chen suddenly frowned.

He raised his hand and looked at the slightly trembling sword in his hand.

"this is……"

After a while, his face suddenly darkened.

At the same time, Xuanjiwei at the side suddenly turned around, looked coldly at the stone forest not far away, and slowly rested his right hand on the hilt of his waist.

"Oh? Was it discovered?"

click...

In the darkness, several slightly aged figures slowly stepped out.

Lu Chen clenched the extreme sword in his hand, and said coldly, "Who are you?"

When he said that, his mind moved slightly.

"The person who sent you, Mr. Lu, on your way."

There was an undisguised killing intent in the joking voice.

As these words fell, dozens of hundreds of black shadows suddenly flashed behind the man.

Boom!

Among those black shadows, some of them jumped into the air suddenly, and some turned into strange cold lights, and swept towards Lu Chen at high speed.

It's completely different from the villains that Lu Chen watched before he crossed over, those villains who always bullied them for a long time before making a move. The opponents hardly talked nonsense, and directly attacked them with all their strength, killing them in the blink of an eye. shrouded in it.

Clang! !

A group of Xuanji guards pulled out their long swords at their waists at the same time, their huge spiritual power erupted instantly, bursts of cold light suddenly burst out from the blade of their long swords, and then they charged up against the swiftly approaching black shadow.

Bang!

The sharp sword beams slammed into each other fiercely, and sparks flew everywhere in an instant.

"Governor Lu, please back off!"

While most of the Xuanji guards were fighting with those black shadows, one of the Xuanji guards walked up to Lu Chen and blocked him behind him while holding the long sword tightly with both hands, his face full of dignity.

It is obvious that the enemy who can make Xuanjiwei show such a solemn look cannot be an ordinary person.

Lu Chen didn't respond, but frowned, looking at the black shadow who was fighting with Xuanjiwei not far away.

But seeing those black shadows and Xuanjiwei face to face, several of them were killed, obviously they were not the opponents of Xuanjiwei who had experienced many battles.

If it is one-on-one, or even two-on-one, Xuanjiwei has an absolute advantage.

But three-on-one... is a little bit reluctant.

A four-on-one situation would turn into a close match.

Being forcibly killed by Xuanjiwei's sudden outburst of terrifying power doesn't mean that the opponent is weak, it's just that Xuanjiwei, who was born in the holy realm, is too strong.

At this time, there were hundreds of those men in black who showed their figures!

Not to mention how many are hiding in the dark and waiting for an opportunity.

There are less than 30 people in Xuanjiwei...

When the strength is not enough to completely crush the opponent, the number is a huge advantage that cannot be ignored.

What's more, Fu Wei, who is the commander of the Xuanji Guard, is still crossing the catastrophe, and can't be distracted to activate the augmentation circle for them, which makes their combat power somewhat reduced.

Gradually, Xuanjiwei, who was at an extremely disadvantaged number, finally gradually showed his weakness when facing the men in black who were four or five times their own.

Several Xuanjiwei had even been hacked.

"The situation is a little bit bad."

Seeing this scene, Lu Chen couldn't help frowning.

Even a layman like him can clearly see that the current situation is becoming more and more unfavorable to his side.

But even so, in the face of the continuously attacking murderous intent, there was no trace of panic on his face, not even a trace of fear.

His face was terribly quiet.

It was as if he didn't worry about whether he would die here at all.

Actually he wasn't worried at all.

He can probably guess the origin of these people.

After all, under the current situation, the only ones who are so eager to kill him are probably those desperadoes who are afraid that he will find out the case hidden behind the matter of King Yu.

To die at their hands was nothing to him.

Not even wishing for it.

However, one cannot die in vain.

Otherwise, it is too abnormal, and the system restrictions cannot be bypassed.

There has to be something to do.

As soon as he thought of this, he subconsciously looked at the extreme sword in his hand.

This Sword of the Emperor contains a lot of extremely powerful forbidden spells that require the user to reach a certain level of cultivation, otherwise, if they are forced to activate, they will have to pay a huge price.

"Governor Lu!"

While thinking, that Xuanjiwei suddenly spoke again.

"You should leave here first."

As he said that, he suddenly shortened slightly, like a sharp arrow about to leave the string, obviously ready to rush over and fight side by side with his comrades.

Even if they die in battle, they don't have to watch them being overwhelmed by enemies that are several times their size like they are now.

"You belong to the well-being of the people of Great Xia, and you cannot tolerate any mistakes, and His Majesty has ordered that no matter what, even if I die in the line of duty, you must be safe. Therefore, for the sake of the common people and the world, you must not die here. Plant a place!"

Hearing this, in order to protect Lu Chen, the faces of the other three Xuanjiwei who did not go forward to kill the enemy with the others suddenly sank.

They opened their mouths, wanting to say something.

But the Xuanji Guard shouted again sharply: "Li Xuan, Wu Gui, Su Yi, the three of you escort Governor Lu out of here immediately, make sure that the Governor is safe, do you hear me!"

The faces of the three of them froze immediately.

"promise!"

However, just as they were about to step forward and let Lu Chen mount the horse.

The extreme sword in Lu Chen's hand suddenly burst into a strong golden light.
