Chapter 796: The Sword Slays He Jin
2017-09-25
Luoyang, Beigong, inside the palace of Princess Taiping.
A dazzling sword beam suddenly lit up, followed by a loud crash. A figure was struck by the sword beam and flew out over a dozen meters, smashing through countless buildings, and was eventually buried under a pile of rubble, their fate unknown.
After witnessing this, Yue Er no longer paid attention to the Grand Princess. She had said that she would only need one sword.
Whether this person lived or died after the sword strike had nothing to do with Yue Er.
As Yue Er strode towards the palace exit, Yue Ying appeared behind her.
Yue Ying, who Yue Er wanted to meet, had actually come to protect Yue Er, sent by Lu HaiKong. Lu HaiKong did not want Yue Er to get involved in this matter, so he specifically sent Yue Ying, who was not supposed to meet Yue Er. However, Lu HaiKong underestimated his wife's strength, and Yue Ying was immediately discovered by Yue Er.
What Lu HaiKong did not expect was that while Yue Ying was dealing with Yue Er's interrogation, the Grand Princess suddenly appeared. As a result, Lu HaiKong's plan to keep Yue Er unaware of this situation was foiled.
Yue Ying, usually unconstrained, now felt a bit restrained due to Yue Er's identity, her formidable strength, and her current towering rage. Additionally, her failed mission added to her unease.
"He sent you here to protect me?" Yue Er asked as she walked towards the palace exit.
"Mhm!" Yue Ying hesitated and nodded.
Yue Er paused in her stride, a smile playing on her lips. "Although his actions made me angry, this feeling isn't so bad!"
Yue Ying did not understand Yue Er's words. Why did she still smile when she was clearly angry? Yue Ying was never good at solving such problems, let alone understanding them. She could only kill; other matters seemed beyond her capabilities. For instance, Yue Er's current state and her mission.
Yue Ying could sense Yue Er's anger, which had reached a terrifying level, yet Yue Er was smiling.
Without understanding, Yue Ying did not ask further. Instead, she silently followed behind Yue Er.
"You can only watch and not act, understand?" Yue Er instructed as they walked.
"Why?"
"No reason. I'm avenging my man. It's none of your business!" Yue Er turned and glared at Yue Ying.
Yue Ying, perplexed, could only nod and follow Yue Er, sword in hand, towards the palace exit.
The two women, one tall and one small, strode out of the imperial palace. Knowing Yue Er's identity, the guards along the way dared not stop them, ensuring their own safety.
Soon after Yue Er and Yue Ying left, Emperor Ling of Han received the news. Zhang Rang, standing nearby, saw Princess San carrying a sword and leaving the palace. His already pale face turned even whiter.
Why did this Little Ancestor choose this moment to leave? What if something happened to her?
Emperor Ling was also perplexed by Princess San's sudden action. When informed that Princess San seemed to be looking for He Jin, Emperor Ling was taken aback.
"Nonsense! A princess of the nation acting like this? Quickly stop her!"
Emperor Ling immediately issued an order, but it was too late. By the time his command reached He Jin, Yue Er had already left the palace.
Upon learning this, Emperor Ling instructed He Jin to pacify the princess and not harm her, while also sending people to forcibly bring Yue Er back.
Beigong, the sleeping palace of Empress He.
Almost as soon as Emperor Ling received the news, Empress He also learned about Yue Er.
Empress He's reaction was not as dramatic as Emperor Ling's. She had little impression of Princess San, only vaguely recalling a crazy girl who liked to play with spears and sticks.
Regarding this crazy girl, Empress He was slightly surprised by her relationship with Lu HaiKong. She sent someone to inform He Jin to merely teach Princess San a lesson without killing her.
After passing on the order, Empress He watched the events unfold. She wanted to see what kind of trouble this girl, not yet fifteen years old, could stir up.
As messages flew throughout the imperial palace, Yue Er had not yet reached He Jin's residence. He Jin already knew the situation and ordered his subordinates to close the General's Mansion, as the Grand Princess's arrival meant she should be sent away immediately.
These days, He Jin was in high spirits. Lu HaiKong, the thorn in his side, was finally about to fall. His nephew's ascension to the throne was almost certain, and rumors of Emperor Ling's health were spreading in the palace.
He Jin felt that all good things were coming his way. Once Emperor Ling passed away, his nephew would take the throne, and he would truly hold power over the world. The thought made him giddy. A mere princess was of no concern to him at this moment.
Even seeking revenge for Lu Hai Kong? What a joke. This time, I'll send her back first. If she still doesn't behave, I'll find someone for her to marry in the future.
I wonder what expression Lu Hai Kong would have when he sees the princess he has been longing for being married to someone else.
However, just as He Jin was having this beautiful dream in his mansion, a deafening roar shook the earth, causing even the grand hall where He Jin was to tremble. The teacup in his hand shook and fell to the ground.
"What's going on? An earthquake?"
He Jin was bewildered, but at that moment, one of his servants rushed in, panic-stricken.
"Master, bad news! Princess San is here!"
"Why panic? You're useless! Didn't I tell you to stop her? Just block her and send her back!" He Jin didn't listen carefully and immediately started cursing.
"Master, we tried to stop her, but she's too strong. Princess San is too powerful. She swung her sword and split open the main gate. We can't stop her!"
Just as the servant was speaking, another deafening roar sounded, and the grand hall where He Jin was trembled.
Seeing this, the servant trembled, "Master, Princess San is losing her temper again."
He Jin was stunned upon hearing this. After a long while, he finally came to his senses, "You mean, this is caused by Princess San?"
As the servant nodded, He Jin's mind was filled with a million thoughts, feeling that this plot was all wrong.
"This is bad!"
In the 16th chapter, there was a mistake in the 19th book!
He Jin quickly realized and turned to run deeper into the General's Mansion.
Although he didn't know why Princess San was so powerful, it didn't matter anymore. What was important was that Shi Daoren was still recuperating in his mansion. Feeling guilty, he instinctively wanted to send Shi Daoren away.
However, it was too late. Yue Er had already arrived and killed her way in.
He Jin's General's Mansion in Luoyang was considered a heavily guarded place. Not only did he have a large number of guards, but he also kept many guests, many of whom were masters of extraordinary skills. In the eyes of many loose individuals, this place was almost like a dragon's lair.
In Yue Er's eyes, this so-called General's Mansion was nothing more than a small cat's nest.
She effortlessly broke into the General's Mansion. Whether it was the main gate or anything else, as long as it blocked her, she could easily slash it with her sword. If one sword wasn't enough, she could be a little more serious and try again.
It was known that before her reincarnation, Yue Er was capable of defeating Lu Bu. Although she had taken a special pill, her strength was undeniable.
After her reincarnation, Yue Er not only had greater talent but also better opportunities. Her martial power quickly recovered to 90 in just a few years. With her current combat strength, she might not lose to Lu Hai Kong.
The oddballs in He Jin's mansion were no match for Yue Er.
As Yue Er entered the He Mansion, her keen senses immediately detected a strange aura. This aura was very peculiar, giving her an ominous feeling.
Upon sensing this aura, Yue Er immediately knew that this was the person who had harmed Lu Hai Kong.
Yue Er was well aware of Lu Hai Kong's strength. Even with underhanded methods, few could injure Lu Hai Kong.
Therefore, upon sensing this aura, Yue Er directly headed towards its source.
Along the way, it was more like a leisurely stroll than a swift and unstoppable advance. This was due to Yue Er's terrifying strength and her status as Princess San. With He Jin not present, no one dared to confront her.
Under these circumstances, Yue Er easily reached the small courtyard where Shi Daoren was located.
Almost simultaneously, He Jin also arrived at the same courtyard. He saw Yue Er, who was walking with a long sword and a cold expression. He Jin's scalp tingled, and he had no choice but to greet her.
"Subject He Jin pays respects to Princess..."
"Die!"
As He Jin bowed to Yue Er, she raised her hand and slashed with her sword.
This girl had always been like this. Her personality was even more fearless than Lu Hai Kong, and her heart was only concerned with martial arts and Lu Hai Kong.
Aside from that, she paid no heed to etiquette or rules.
Since He Jin dared to harm Lu Hai Kong, she wouldn't waste words with him. What was this 'currying favor'? If she was an enemy, she'd just slash her sword!
As Yue Er's sword slashed down, He Jin was terrified, his face turning pale. He tried to dodge, but his martial arts were far inferior to Yue Er's, and he couldn't even avoid her sword.
Seeing the incoming sword energy, He Jin's face turned ashen.
Just as He Jin was about to be killed by the sword, a black light shone from his body, blocking the sword. Yue Er's sword was not easy to block, and He Jin was knocked back, crashing into Shi Daoren's small courtyard.
