Shouts, clashing blades, desperate pleas for mercy... they rose and fell, enveloping the entire coronation ceremony in a shroud of blood.
Xiao Pingfeng quickly realized that this chaos couldn't solely be the work of the rebels and the Qin Family, Chu Kingdom must be involved as well.
Sun Hong was no match for him, but the delivery was extremely difficult; his broadsword, when swung, inflicted severe damage.
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Yan Wanqing standing dazed on the spot, while in front of her, Cong Ge had been stabbed in the abdomen by Qin Erya with a dagger...
"Crown Prince, this is not the time to be distracted, your opponent is me!"
The broadsword slashed towards him again.
But Xiao Pingfeng, disregarding everything else, charged towards Yan Wanqing. The blade just grazed past him, cutting off a strand of his hair.
"Wanwan!"
He pulled her to him, dodging Qin Erya's lethal strike.
