Chapter 209

Not to mention how regretful Li Lianhua felt, at this moment, everyone who had come to watch the battle was in complete chaos!

The matter of the duel at the Forbidden City had been hyped up so intensely in the Jiang Hu recently, yet now, Ye Gucheng was actually a fake?

Then where had Ye Gucheng gone?

More importantly, this duel at the Forbidden City had been proposed by Ye Gucheng himself, yet he hadn't even shown up?

A conspiracy!

Even the most dull-witted person could feel at this moment that a deep conspiracy was hidden behind this affair!

At this time, the forces prepared within the Imperial Palace moved into action rapidly!

The Imperial Guards surrounded all the Jiang Hu guests who had come to watch, preventing them from taking advantage of the chaos to strike!

Then, Guo Juxia of the Six Doors led the experts and rushed toward where the Emperor was located!

After all, now that an incident had occurred, the first priority was naturally to protect the safety of the Emperor!

……

Lu Xiaofeng reacted the fastest; when he learned that Ye Gucheng was a fake, he rushed toward the Emperor's location at the first opportunity.

He discovered that the real Ye Gucheng was indeed here, and what's more, he had already made a move against the Emperor!

Regardless of whether he could withstand Ye Gucheng's sword or not, Lu Xiaofeng had no choice at this moment but to unleash his Spirit Rhinoceros Finger, hoping to be able to stop him!

However, while Lu Xiaofeng's movements were fast, someone else's were even faster!

Just as a blur passed before their eyes, a figure had already blocked Ye Gucheng's path, and then struck down with a palm!

Ye Gucheng's sword shattered into pieces, and the palm, its momentum undiminished, landed on Ye Gucheng's chest, directly sending him flying!

"Hiss..." Seeing the dignified Ye Gucheng defeated in a single move, Lu Xiaofeng gasped in shock!

Looking again at this figure who had just moved as fast as a ghost, it turned out to be a thin, gaunt old Eunuch who nonetheless looked remarkably spirited!

"With me here, don't even think about anyone being able to harm His Majesty by a single hair!" The old Eunuch pinched his fingers into an orchid gesture; although his tone was calm, the words he spoke were extremely domineering!

"You, who are you? To think that such an expert was hidden by the Emperor's side!"

Severely injured and vomiting blood, Ye Gucheng also looked at this old Eunuch who had jumped out in disbelief!

"Who am I? I don't remember who I am either. Perhaps someone calls me the Kuihua Ancestor?" Pinching an orchid-shaped finger gesture and pondering for a moment, the old eunuch spoke up!

"Indeed, haha, wanting to assassinate the Emperor is not such an easy task, but I never expected that such a Grandmaster Realm expert was hidden by the Emperor's side, protecting him in secret!" Ye Gucheng said with a bitter smile!

It was over!

With the Sunflower Ancestor jumping out and severely injuring Ye Gucheng with a single palm, this play of assassinating the Emperor and attempting to usurp the throne came to an end!

The Emperor ordered Ye Gucheng to be taken into custody.

However, Ye Gucheng took a step ahead and committed suicide, not giving the Emperor a chance to torture him!

Although the Sunflower Ancestor nearby possessed supreme martial arts, it was not so easy for him to stop Ye Gucheng if he wanted to kill himself!

When Ye Gucheng's corpse was finally carried out, the fact that he had used a diversionary tactic to assassinate the Emperor in secret was naturally exposed, which once again shocked everyone!

Who could have imagined that while Ye Gucheng was ostensibly dueling Ximen Chuixue at the Forbidden City, he was actually running off to assassinate the Emperor in secret!

The duel at the Forbidden City, which had been hyped up so hotly in the Great Song Jiang Hu, ended in such an anticlimactic fashion!

"So that's it? Is it really a Comprehensive Martial Arts World? The plot still has some changes after all!"

Watching Ye Gucheng's corpse being tossed out just like that, Li Lianhua did not feel surprised!

After all, the Ye Gucheng in the original work had also failed!

It was just that the Ye Gucheng in the original work could at least have a hearty battle with Ximen Chuixue before dying!

Yet, in this Imperial Palace of the Comprehensive Martial Arts World, Ye Gucheng was killed while still inside the palace!

So, was there a peerless expert hidden in this Imperial Palace capable of slaying Ye Gucheng?

"Li Lianhua!"

The excitement here was considered over, and Li Lianhua and Wen Hua prepared to leave the Imperial Palace along with the others who had come to watch!

However, at this very moment, a familiar shout rang out!

Hearing the voice, Li Lianhua paused his steps!

He saw Lu Xiaofeng running over, panting for breath!

Without waiting for Li Lianhua to speak, Lu Xiaofeng said: "His Majesty requests your presence; come with me to see the Emperor!"
