True Dragon (3)
The Imperial Guards finally managed to reach where Xie Xuanchen and Mu Mingtang were standing after pushing away the crowd in the front.
There they saw Xie Xuanchen and Mu Mingtang standing unscathed, while a bunch of people were rolling and groaning on the ground, they didn’t know how to interpret the situation.
The moment Xie Xuanchen saw the Imperial Guards, he said with a sneer, “It seems that they managed to outsmart you. A bunch of trash, what’s the use of having you?”
The guards finally realised that it was not Prince An, who was trying to pull some trick, but someone else wanted to assassinate him. Understanding the situation, they immediately knelt down on the ground, clasped their fists together and said with their heads lowered: “We have come late to protect Prince An and Princess An. Your Highness, please forgive our sins.”
“Ha…what are you doing? Do I need to teach you how to handle prisoners?” Xie Xuanchen rebuked them angrily, “They are still alive. Don’t you dare let them commit suicide or you will see what will happen to you.”
“As you command, Your Highness.” After giving a hurried bow, the guards panickedly stood up to capture the assassins.
At that moment, one of the assassins on the ground raised his dagger and put it on his neck, seemingly trying to kill himself. However, suddenly a chestnut flew diagonally above, hitting the dagger’s hilt with great force.
Unable to commit suicide, the assassin spat out the blood, feeling indigent. Desperate to know the identity of the person who had fought with them, he asked while bearing a great pain, “Who are you?”
Xie Xuanchen was about to leave together with Mu Mingtang, but hearing the assassin’s words, he stopped and said with a low laugh, sending chills to the assassin’s back: “Who am I? You are unlucky to have met me. Remember my name, I am Xie Xuanchen.”
‘Xie Xuanchen, goodness! He turned out to be Xie Xuanchen.’
When the assassin heard the name, he spit out another mouthful of blood and roared up to the sky with a bloody mouth: “Xie Xuanchen, you are actually Xie Xuanchen. Xie Xuanchen is supposed to be dead. Why are you still alive?”
After he finished speaking, he vomited more blood and slowly drifted into a coma unable to get up ever again.
Mu Mingtang felt uncomfortable seeing those bloody scenes. Xie Xuanchen also didn’t want her to watch this further, hence he quickly pulled her away.
When the two had walked some distance, Mu Mingtang vaguely heard the assassin’s dying words. She glanced at Xie Xuanchen with concern filled eyes and held his hand tightly: “That person was talking nonsense. You are living well and also showing a speedy recovery. You are not going anywhere. What a jinx…”
Xie Xuanchen, who was amused by Mu Mingtang’s words, smiled widely. He didn’t expect that after such a big turmoil, Mu Mingtang didn’t even shout or cry, and the first words she said were in order to coax him.
“Okay, he is indeed a jinx. We won’t listen to those unlucky words. Do you still want to eat chestnuts?”
“No…I don’t want to. Please, let’s go back.”
“Ok, since that’s what you want, let’s go back.”
Ye Luyan, who had witnessed everything that had transpired on the street, put down the telescope and remained silent for a long time. Even the other Hu people did not dare to utter a single word. After a period of silence, one of them asked in a heavy tone, “Since when was there a Han citizen with such an insane strength? Who is he?”
No one replied. Although no one said a word, after carefully analysing the incident, everyone already had an answer in their hearts.
A young man with such a powerful identity, who else would he be other than Xie Xuanchen.
Yes! He was Xie Xuanchen.
After a while, a man spat hard and broke the silence with a scolding: “Bah, I thought that at least Xie Xuanchen will have a powerful body built with a scary face. Hahaha… but he actually turned out to be another Little White Face. Can you even believe that?”
Ye Luyan was also in a complicated mood as he silently watched Xie Xuanchen leave with his princess, in a very relaxed manner as though nothing had happened. Looking at Xie Xuanchen’s current appearance, who would believe that he alone had knocked down a dozen people with his bare hands a few moments ago.
As Ye Luyan’s good mood was swept away by Xie Xuanchen, he didn’t even have the interest to plunder the bustling streets of the Capital city. Now, as they had seen Xie Xuanchen’s current situation with their own eyes, they decided to go back and inform the Beirong Emperor.
People at the tower were eager to see the dragon lantern that they had heard about earlier from the head eunuch and other officials.
Finally with a grand entry, a carriage arrived at the tower with a majestic lantern, which looked no different than a living dragon.
Amidst the cheers and applause of the people around the Xuande gate, the dragon lantern was pushed through its heavy gates. Since it had managed to come all the way to the Xuande Gate, it proved that the dragon lantern had won the lantern competition even though it was the farthest lantern to start.
When the people in the square saw the enormous and majestic dragon lantern pushing towards them, they all gave a surprise applause, including the emperor.
Most of the people at the city gate had seen lots of wonders in this world before, but even so, they all were very enthralled when the lantern was presented before them. The structure of the lantern was extremely tall, and its top was already higher than a pillar in the tower. The design of the lantern was extremely delicate and remarkable, making it all more majestic and magnificent.
