The World Online-Chapter 1187 Tingyu Floor's Will

Chapter 1187 – Tingyu Floor's Will

The guard that shot the arrow from outside the hall did not even have time to resist before the surrounding guards took him down. Without a doubt, this was a chess piece that the Shanhai Guards buried in the Great Han palace.

Let us move back into the palace.

Within the blink of an eye, Jianqi Leiyin had charged to the front of the two eunuchs, and the Chengying Sword flashed through the air. Before the two of them could react, their throats were slashed by the formless sword, and they died on the spot.

As the world's best assassin, she was famous for the quickness of her sword.

Along with a God Weapon like the Chengying Sword, she killed people easily.

Fresh blood splattered everywhere.

Hanwu Emperor, who had been sitting there calmly, let out an astonished expression. He exclaimed, "Protect me! Quick, protect me!"

When the guards heard that, they immediately turned around, only to see the two eunuchs fall to the ground and fresh blood flowed out. They saw the player, who was protecting the emperor, had her right hand in a sword wielding stance as she charged at the emperor.

"Damn it, we fell for it!"

The guards were not fools, and they realized that this was a carefully planned assassination. They did not even hesitate and charged right at Jianqi Leiyin.

Unfortunately, it was too late.

Jianqi Leiyin was really decisive. Knowing that the chance would slip away, after killing the two eunuchs, she did not stop. Instead, she stepped forward. She instantly appeared in front of Hanwu Emperor and stabbed out with the Chengying Sword.

With just one sword, she accurately pierced the heart of the emperor.

Jianqi Leiyin used her primordial energy, and the Chengying Sword shook and directly ripped Hanwu Emperor to shreds.

The pride of an era fell just like that.

In such a short while, the five guards had arrived before her, blocking all road she had out. At the door of the hall, hundreds of guards swarmed in like a flood, looking to capture the assassin.

Jianqi Leiyin did not hesitate, nor did she turn her head around. She turned the Chengying Sword and blocked behind her back, blocking all the swords. Following which, she stooped down, and the Chengying Sword shone with a cold light once more.

'Huadang! Huadang!'

The guards were all top-class elites. However, in front of a God Weapon that was enhanced with internal strength, they were like bamboo and were cut into pieces.

Seeing that, even the calm guards were stunned. Furthermore, Jianqi Leiyin turned around and revealed Hanwu Emperor at the throne. He laid limp on the ground, his chest bloody, not making a sound.

When the guards saw that, their hearts turned cold. Some of their faces turned ashen white. Once the emperor died, the fate that awaited them was set.

Seeing that, one of the guards walked up to check the injuries of the emperor. The remaining ones charged right at Jianqi Leiyin. Only by capturing the assassin could they make up for their sins.

If not, as guards, it would not be enough even if they died 100 times.

Jianqi Leiyin took a glance at the hall. Looking out, it was totally covered by guards, so charging out was impossible. Moreover, the moment she entered a chaotic battle, it would only draw in more guards.

Abruptly, Jianqi Leiyin turned around. After pushing back the guards, she moved toward the left of the throne. There was the tunnel the emperor took to get to the court and could lead outside of the hall.

At this very moment, the guard checking the injury of the emperor let out a tragic exclamation, "The Emperor has died; quick, capture the assassin!"

The moment these words were said, the entire hall fell into total silence. The hearts of every guard there could not help but stop, and some of their legs turned soft.

"Capture the assassin; do not let her run!"

Only then did the Guards react and lead the chase toward Jianqi Leiyin.

The entire hall was in chaos.

Jianqi Leiyin barged through the left tunnel. She did not even think about exiting the hall from here. An architectural building group like the palace had a lot of empty squares between halls, and if she went out, she would only become a moving target.

Instead, she turned around and entered a side room at the right, hiding there. As long as she got through the chase at the beginning, once the news of the emperor dying spread out, Luoyang City would be in chaos.

When that happened, it would be the best chance for her to escape.

...

Very quickly, the news of Hanwu Emperor dying wrapped up Luoyang City like a whirlwind. It made the unstable city almost collapse.

If it was during a normal time and the emperor died, there would naturally be a prince to take over his place. If they did things appropriately, things would not get out of hand.

However, what time was it?

Great Xia had already attacked Luoyang City for half a month and could take over really quickly.

At such a juncture, Hanwu Emperor who was the heart of Great Han was suddenly assassinated. Many experienced officials and generals all stood stunned at the spot as other ideas filled their heads.

The Han army unavoidably started to waver.

At this very moment, the Shanhai Guards acted up once more, visiting all the officials and expressing the kind intentions of Great Xia. They promised that as long as they surrendered, Great Xia would have a place for them.

More terrifyingly, using the chaos in the city, Tingyu Floor said that they were going to help the Han army defend but instead moved toward the city west granary and set fire to it.

Smoke bellowed and covered the skies of the city.

The successive blows made it hard for one to breathe. At this very moment, Han Xin led the Great Xia Army, taking advantage of their opponents' low morale to launch their strongest assault.

Under the fierce attacks, the Han army was pushed further and further back.

Especially the battle in the northwest street. The 10 thousand combat occupation players of Tingyu Floor suddenly charged up from behind, catching the Han army off guard. The Great Xia army took the chance to siege at the enemy camp.

Just like that, the Great Xia army smoothly opened up their route to the inner city.

This time, the Great Han Imperial Court totally panicked, and the calls for surrender slowly gathered up and reverberated through the skies of Luoyang City.

Even crown prince Liu Fuling who was pushed to the front was helpless to control the situation.

At that moment, only Wei Qing could calm the situation. As long as the Han army did not fall, Great Han would still have some hope. The group of officials did not dare to make their stance before the situation became clear.

The problem was that under the fierce attacks of the Great Xia army, could the Han army hold on?

...

West of Luoyang City, a certain castle set up at some street.

News of the king dying spread quickly, and even the resolute Wei Qing could not help but shudder. To him, Hanwu Emperor was like a giant mountain. Once the mountain fell, the sky would collapse with it.

The following few pieces of bad news made him unable to keep calm.

Wei Qing was only interested in one question, "How did his majesty die? Who is the assassin, and has the assassin been captured?"

"It's the guild leader of Tingyu Floor, player Jianqi Leiyin. The palace guards are still searching, but they have not found her yet."

When Wei Qing heard that, his eyes shone coldly, and he said, "Tingyu Floor, traitors!"

"Men!"

"Bring a group of men and lock down the headquarters of Tingyu Floor. Do not leave a single person!"

"Yes, general!"

Wei Qing rarely took such action. However, he was really furious this time, and regardless of whether they would be able to defend Luoyang City or not, he wanted Tingyu Floor to pay a heavy price.

Unfortunately, he was a step too late.

When they decided to assassinate Hanwu Emperor, Tingyu Floor had already predicted that this day would come.

Apart from the 10 thousand combat occupation players, the other members had all hid themselves.

Luoyang City was huge, and seeing that it was so chaotic, it was near impossible for the Han army soldiers to find the Tingyu Floor members once they hid themselves since it was their local of the area.

As for the headquarters, it was empty long ago.

After taking down the castle, the 10 thousand combat occupation players naturally became a part of the Great Xia army. Their safety was naturally protected.

Speaking of which, to cooperate with Great Xia this time, Tingyu Floor had paid a heavy price.

This was not only the will of Jianqi Leiyin but also the will of the entire guild.

They realized that this was Tingyu Floor's last chance, and if they missed it, the future Tingyu Floor would be a second rate or even a third rate guild.

The crucial thing was time. The current Great Han was riddled with problems both internally and externally. The Han army did not have time to start a full scale search, as that would only intensify the chaos and would not be able to help anything.

After learning of such a result, Wei Qing was so furious that he wanted to kill someone.

Without a doubt, all of this was planned by Great Xia, and the goal was to swiftly take down Luoyang.

Wei Qing looked around at the Han troops that were still fighting. All of them were filled with worry, worry about the future of Great Han, worry about their own futures.

The only thing they lacked was determination.

That was because the person they fought for did not exist. The granary was burned, and their way out was broken. The Han army soldiers had to think for themselves and their families.

If they were too stubborn and infuriated Great Xia, the city might be massacred. If that happened, everything would over.

Seeing that, Wei Qing was filled with a sense of dejection. When did the Great Han iron cavalry that ruled China in history fall to such a level?

Was the wilderness a new battlefield or a grave for the Han army?
