Chapter 356: Black Panther Guardian Beast

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

There was a man who looked ordinary and could not be discovered at a glance. Furthermore, his expressions and movements were ordinary, so it was impossible to tell what he wanted to do. He suddenly jumped up from his table. His thin figure suddenly exploded with powerful strength and rushed towards the youngest prince without making a sound.

The worst thing was that he was only two tables away from the youngest prince. He was very close, and the man was surprisingly fast. In the blink of an eye, he had already arrived in front of the youngest prince.

Before anyone could move, that person had already launched his attack on the youngest prince's mingmen.

“Ah!”

At the same time as the first cry sounded, the extremely formidable cold-looking guard beside the youngest prince, Dongfang Jue, moved up. His figure was even faster than that man. After his hand moved, he drew his sword and faced that man.

“There's an assassin!”

“An assassin wants to kill the youngest prince!”

“Someone wants to harm the youngest prince!”

A customer in the restaurant shouted. Everyone instantly came back to their senses. The scene immediately became chaotic and frightened. There were also customers who hurriedly got up and wanted to protect the youngest prince.

No matter what, the youngest prince was from the imperial family. The first thought of the ancient commoners was to protect him.

Therefore, many adult men rushed towards the youngest prince to protect him so that nothing would hurt him again.

However, just as this commotion started, six or seven more customers in the hall jumped out from the crowd. They rushed towards the youngest prince at the counter from different directions!

“They're really assassins! There are assassins!”

Some experienced and knowledgeable merchants could tell that someone had specially invited a group of killers to assassinate the youngest prince! And they should have long planned this by lurking in the shop today!

There were many merchants from all over Yuan City. This shop by the river was the favorite place for foreign merchants who had just disembarked from the ship. Many of the merchants gathered did not know each other at all. They might have just chatted on the same ship for a while before sitting together at a table.

Many people who wanted to do business would casually chat with unfamiliar merchants.

Therefore, no one knew that there were assassins among the merchants…

As to how they knew that the youngest prince would be in Ye Lulu's shop, it was even simpler. Someone monitored the youngest prince's condition in the government and from the moment they saw that he had the intention to go out and look for delicious food, they formulated a plan. They would take a boat every day and pretend to be merchants before coming to Ye Lulu's shop to eat.

It was very expensive, but people who wanted to assassinate the prince were not afraid of costs.

The reason for choosing Ye Lulu's restaurant was even more obvious. If the youngest prince wanted to eat special dishes, Ye Lulu's restaurant would be the most popular in Yuan City.

Today, the youngest prince had indeed come.

Therefore, the moment the youngest prince appeared, it was time for these killers to make a move!

They were really caught off guard. There was no warning at all. Furthermore, there were many killers. No one expected that the first one to leap up would be the leader!

However, the worst thing was that the killers at the front had tied down the only guard beside the youngest prince. Even though that guard was obviously stronger than those killers, they could still hold him back for a while.

The other killers did not stop at all. They seized this moment and suddenly rushed towards the youngest prince…

“Ah!”

Those who wanted to protect the youngest prince were ordinary people. They could not resist those vicious killers.

The shop was in chaos. If the youngest prince was stabbed to death by a killer here today…

The consequences would be unimaginable!

They did not know what kind of disaster would happen!

It was not as if the youngest prince had never seen such a scene. When he saw that the guard was being held back and that more killers were charging at him, he turned around and hid behind the counter.

As long as he could avoid them for a while, Leng Han would return quickly. No one in the world could match his martial arts skills. At most, he would be held back.

In a moment of desperation, the youngest prince instinctively tried to hide, but Guan Chibei was standing behind the counter.

As soon as Dongfang Jue's chubby body burrowed behind the counter, he looked up and saw a tall man standing in front of him. Guan Chibei was looking down at him.

The youngest prince did not look embarrassed. In his opinion, Guan Chibei could not stop him from hiding there. Guan Chibei still had to save him. Dongfang Jue raised his head with difficulty and looked at Guan Chibei. He remembered that he knew martial arts and could jump off the building that night to save someone. Hence, he immediately tugged at Guan Chibei's pants.

“There are assassins. Hurry up and protect me or hide yourself quickly. There are many of them. They want to kill me!”

Dongfang Jue had seen many of those killers' moves and auras. He knew immediately that they wanted to kill him.

As soon as he finished speaking, two or three killers had already arrived. When they reached the counter, it was not convenient for them to bend down and grab the youngest prince. Therefore, they held their swords and injected their internal energy into them, thinking of splitting the counter open.

Unexpectedly, the sword energy was sharp but it did not split the counter open.

Shockingly…

There was not a single mark.

There were dark lights. It was unknown what kind of wood was used to make the surface so smooth. There were no marks at all…

2

It was one thing if the sword could not slice through it, but how could there be no mark at all…

The two or three killers were also very clear-headed and reacted quickly. They paused for a moment. When carrying out an important mission like an assassination, they actually diverted their attention. The few of them looked at each other, their eyes filled with shock.

It could be seen how terrifying this detail was.

Guan Chibei raised his eyes and looked at the killers calmly.

Even Ye Lulu did not know about this counter because it had been handed over to Guan Chibei to make. Guan Chibei had used Netherheaven Wood. Netherheaven Wood was a tree that had been struck by lightning. However, due to various coincidences, it was not charred. Instead, it was infused with lightning power and became a piece of wood that was no longer ordinary.

This kind of Netherheaven Wood could not collapse after being struck by lightning. As a result, the material became extremely hard. Even Thunder Fire could not destroy it. Therefore, when these killers slashed with their swords, there was no mark at all…

How was such hard Netherheaven Wood made into a counter? Of course, only Guan Chibei could do that.

This counter was made of Netherheaven Wood. Even Ye Lulu did not know about this. Guan Chibei used Netherheaven Wood as a counter for two reasons. Firstly, it was for its firmness and secondly, it was for the sake of warding off evil. As the Netherheaven Wood had been tempered by yin lightning, the power of yin lightning was very strong. It had an intimidating effect on other yin items.

In short, some otherworldly yin items could not step into this shop easily.

The assassins did not know about this, but they instinctively sensed that something was amiss. After exchanging looks, they prioritized the assassination of the prince and held their swords to stab Guan Chibei.

That was because Guan Chibei was standing behind the counter. If they wanted to go around and take the life of the youngest prince, they had to get Guan Chibei away first.

They did not know what was strange about this counter. Their swords did not seem to leave any marks, but this person was alive. He could not be uninjured, right?

The sword light was cold. There were three babies beside him. Guan Chibei's eyes were calm and his expression did not change. He dodged a few fatal attacks and faced the killers.

His skills were not elegant or complicated at all, nor was there a strong smell of blood. Instead, he was fast and smooth, but his strength was not weak at all. When he attacked, it was extremely strong and powerful.

The reason why those killers were so surprised was that the shop owner was a tall, adult man who was easy to subdue. Unexpectedly, he also knew martial arts and hid it well.

Looking at his calm expression, these killers wanted to quickly finish him off, but realized that they were not his match…

Guan Chibei also made a move and restrained the assassins who had come over. He even let the youngest prince, Dongfang Jue, hide behind the counter and be temporarily safe.

Due to the ruthless and unrestrained attacks of the killers, the shop was already in a mess. Cups, bowls, and plates were all over the ground, and even two tables were overturned.

One was the cold guard, while the other was Guan Chibei. The two of them restrained most of the killers. However, there were still one or two killers left in the chaotic shop. They rushed to the counter without looking at their companions.

The customers dispersed. Some of the timid ones ran away immediately. Some knew that the killers were here for the youngest prince and stood in the hall in a panic. Some of the braver ones wanted to protect the youngest prince.

The officials sent by Lin Yuchen surrounded the counter at this moment to 'protect' the youngest prince.

However, ordinary officials—who were not at the level of the guard, Leng Han, and Guan Chibei—could not stop those killers. The two killers came from different directions and attacked with swords. One or two strikes were enough to take the lives of a few officials. Then, they rushed towards the counter.

The officials were also in a mess. They wanted to protect the youngest prince, but were afraid of the two killers and did not dare to go forward.

The Guan family was also in chaos. As soon as Ye Lulu saw the matter, she asked Mother Rong, Eldest sister-in-law Guan, and Second sister-in-law Guan to run out and call for help from the officials.

As that group of killers only came for the youngest prince and planned to take his life, they did not chase after the people who had run out.

In the shop, the two killers raised their swords at the counter, but what was shocking was…

The three babies were still crawling on the counter.

Guan Chibei had not cared about the babies when he dealt with the killers. It was strange. The shop was in chaos and there were killers who wanted to kill someone. When this happened, the three babies were not frightened at all. They did not cry or create a ruckus and were still lying calmly at their original spots on the counter.

It was as if they had not seen a dangerous scene at all.

As for the killers, they landed by the counter. They did not look at the babies on the counter because their target was only the youngest prince. However, the counter was too strong. The two killers were used to doing things. They could clearly strike the bottom of the counter with their swords and hit the youngest prince who was hiding inside.

However, as soon as the two killers fell, they raised their feet instinctively and kicked the counter, wanting to kick it open.

Of course, the counter was not kicked open.

However, such strong strength caused the counter to shake.

Coincidentally, the second son, who had always been the most active and knew how to crawl, was crawling to the edge of the counter. With the kicks from the killers, the second son fell from the high counter!

As he watched the baby fall, the killers only had their mission in mind. They did not pay any attention to the baby.

The second son, who had a soft body, fell to the ground!

In the chaotic scene, no one could save him in time.

The moonlight outside the window in the shop was blocked for a moment. A black shadow had flashed past. No one could see it clearly. The light-like darkness flashed past their eyes and caught the second child who was falling.

The two killers felt their vision blur. They looked carefully…

A meter away from them, a strong and healthy black panther suddenly appeared… It was a black panther?! It stood there.

Its dark and smooth body seemed to be glowing. Its golden eyes seemed to be shooting out golden light as it looked at them with an imposing and emotionless expression.

On the back of the black panther was a baby with a soft body. It was the second son who was about to fall to the ground just now.

Moreover, the spot where the baby was caught was extremely precise. It was accurately lying in the middle of the black panther's back. It was like the black panther had calculated accurately and let the baby land in the middle of his back to save his life.

This baby was not scared at all by the fall from the counter. What was even more shocking was that he was not scared by the black panther. He lay on the black panther's back and was not afraid at all. There was only novelty and excitement on his chubby little face. He even supported his two little hands and patted the black panther's back.

The black panther was not annoyed by the baby's pats. It seemed to have a consciousness as it stood there motionlessly. It only turned its head slightly and looked at the two killers with its golden eyes.

The two killers… No, it could be said that the entire shop stopped for a moment.

How could a wild beast from the mountains, that could not be seen in the mortal world, appear in a shop like this?!

This shop was in Yuan City!

It meant that this black panther had run into Yuan City! It even entered this shop accurately.

This was too shocking. Everyone in the shop had forgotten the scene before their eyes and was stunned on the spot.

Guan Chibei and the guard, Leng Han, were the first to react. They immediately came back to their senses and dealt with the two killers! However, Leng Han dealt a strong blow while Guan Chibei only kicked them away.

Everything returned to normal. When the two killers faced the black panther, they were stunned for a moment. They did not believe that the wild beast would not attack them, so they took the initiative to attack the black panther!

Compared to the youngest prince, these two killers clearly felt that this black panther standing a few steps away from them could bite and attack them with a slight leap.. It was a greater fatal threat.
