Chapter 132 - Slashing Yang Guanglin"Xiang Yun, what are you doing!"
From afar, Xiang Yun, his face filled with killing intent as he stood on the stage wielding his Wandering Dragon Sword, cried out in alarm as he charged up the stage with his men!
"Boss, you"ve finally come! Xiang Yun actually dared to kill me! You must avenge me!"Looking at Xiang Changan, Yang Guanglin called out excitedly as if he had seen his savior.
A complicated look flashed across Xiang Changan"s face as he looked at the pitiful Yang Guanglin, who was being escorted and kneeling on the ground. He had originally been very dissatisfied with Yang Guanglin"s performance today, leaving everyone behind in the face of the Black Fire Double Headed Python.
However, upon hearing that Xiang Yun actually wanted to kill him, Xiang Changan could not bear to do so. He immediately brought members of the An Lin Party to rescue him.
After all, Yang Guanglin was still his sworn brother, and most importantly, Yang Guanglin"s status was special. If he were to die like this, the Dragon City would definitely cause a huge ruckus, so Yang Guanglin must not die!At this point, Xiang Changan led a few youngsters from the An Lin Party, "Hurry, hurry up and bring Yang Guanglin down!"
With His Highness the prince"s orders, the few aristocratic juniors were naturally full of confidence. They all went up to the stage and walked towards Yang Guanglin!However, just as these people ascended the high platform and took a step forward, the longsword in Xiang Yun"s hand suddenly pointed horizontally at them!
"I want to see who dares!"
Xiang Yun"s face was as cold as ice, his voice as loud as thunder, frightening the young masters of the An Lin Clan so much so that their bodies stiffened, they did not dare to move forward!
"How dare you!" Xiang Changan said angrily as well.
"Xiang Yun, do you know that the execution of the Minister"s son without authorization is a serious crime?!" "You are breaking the law. Men, arrest them all!"
At this moment, Xiang Changan had ordered his men to capture Xiang Yun as well. He wanted to take control of the situation first.
Upon receiving the order, the saber-armed guards immediately moved forward, wanting to seize the person. However, Xiang Yun, who was standing on the high platform, coldly waved his hand!"Whoever dares take a step forward and offend Yang Guanglin will be executed on the spot!"
At this moment, dozens of figures emerged from the crowd and stood on the stage, swords in hand, cold and indifferent, looking at the guards who had come to capture Xiang Yun. They were the guards of the crown prince"s residence, and they only listened to Xiang Yun"s orders!
At this moment, the two sides were actually in a stalemate. The atmosphere on the stage instantly became tense. The surrounding crowd also cried out in alarm. The sky was about to change!
Seeing that Xiang Yun had actually dared to openly disobey, Xiang Chang An"s face paled from anger and his body trembled. Just as he was about to berate Xiang Yun, another voice rang out from beside him.
"Stop!"
The person"s voice sounded weak, but everyone"s gazes were focused on him!
"Princess Pheonix!"The one who had spoken was actually Princess Xiang Fei who had rushed over upon hearing the news. At this moment, the latter"s face was still pale, with two maidservants by her side supporting her.
"Xiang Yun, you can"t kill him!"
He had not expected that Xiang Fei, who was dragging her injured body behind her, was also here to stop Xiang Yun from killing Yang Guanglin.
"Why can"t I kill him?!" Xiang Yun said indifferently!
"Xiang Yun, I know that there"s resentment in your heart, but all crimes have their limits. Yang Guanglin will take it back to the Dragon City and hand it over to the justice courts for investigation. He"ll definitely give you an explanation!"
The latter was the emperor"s most beloved princess. Her status was priceless, and she was also a genius martial artist of the younger generation. The weight of her words was undoubtedly even heavier than that of Xiang Chang"an"s.
His Highness the Prince and Princess were also protecting Yang Guanglin"s life. Xiang Yun might not be able to kill Yang Guanglin even if he wanted to!Yang Guanglin hadn"t expected that even his highness, the princess, would come to protect him. He was overjoyed, knowing that it would be difficult for him to even want to die this time. For a moment, he felt rea.s.sured and could not help but sneer at Xiang Yun!
"Your Highness, even if your status is high, you"re not as high as the law. If you"re not going to be convicted, then if you really want to kill me, then find evidence and report it to the justice courts. Let them enforce the law impartially!"
Yang Guanglin was extremely proud of himself. As long as he left Qin Feng city, regardless of whether it was Central State or Dragon City, he would have his father and uncle take care of everything.
With his uncle"s status as the head of the imperial guards, the most he"d do after going to Dragon City would be to report his arrival to the Supreme Court.
Seeing the proud smile on Yang Guanglin"s face, Xiang Yun laughed instead of getting angry!"Haha, the justice court of the Dragon City is very close with me and we call each other brothers. If I were to judge you on this, he would definitely believe me. If he didn"t believe me, I could burn the justice court down again."
"So, there"s no need to trouble yourself to bring you back to the Dragon City. Here, right now, I can convict you!""You!" Yang Guanglin was flabbergasted, as were Xiang Chang An and Xiang Fei!
Back then, it was precisely because Xiang Yun and Fatty Niu had crippled the Minister of Rites" son that they had been accused of going to the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court had sent people to enforce the law impartially and captured the two of them.
The latter had agitated Xiang Yun, and during the trial, he had directly plucked the Supreme Court official"s beard and set them on fire together with Fatty Niu!The fire raged for a day and a night, and nearly half of the justice courts were burnt.
In the end, Xiang Yun had been released completely unscathed, while the Supreme Court official who was then the head of the Supreme Court had automatically taken his leave.
The first thing that a newly appointed Supreme Court official did after taking office was to invite the crown prince, Xiang Yun, to a banquet at the Drunken Life Tower. He had formed a good relationship with Xiang Yun, afraid that he would become the unlucky former Supreme Court official.
Xiang Yun stared coldly at Yang Guanglin, "I, Xiang Yun, have always done things thoroughly. I don"t need Young Master Yang to travel to some justice court this time. Let me personally serve you!"Under everyone"s dazed gaze, Xiang Yun"s laughter abruptly stopped, his expression instantly turning cold. He stared fixedly at Yang Guanglin, the killing intent on his face not being concealed at all as he tightened his grip on the Wandering Dragon Sword"s hilt!
At this moment, all the hair on Yang Guanglin"s body stood on end. He could clearly sense a sense of impending doom. He could almost see the words" you must die "in Xiang Yun"s eyes!Suddenly, Yang Guanglin got excited. He struggled like crazy, trying to get rid of the bindings as he screamed out in fear!
"Xiang Yun, what right do you have to convict me? Let me go quickly! I"m going to Dragon City! I"m the eldest son of the Yang family! If you kill me, neither father nor uncle will let you go! Your Highness …"
Your Highness, quickly come and save me! "At this moment, Xiang Chang An and Xiang Fei sensed that something was wrong with the atmosphere. Just as they were about to take action, Xiang Yun had already raised the Wandering Dragon Sword high in the air!
His voice was cold and sonorous like the morning bell. With a monstrous killing intent, his voice resounded throughout the entire camp!
"Yang Guanglin, you have the audacity to murder a descendant of the royal family. You deserve to die!"
"You plotted and plotted, instigating the Prince to commit murder. d.a.m.n it!""You have no sense of justice! You lied and refused to admit your wrongs! You deserve to die!"
The three words" death "rumbled like heavenly thunder, like the death brush in the judge"s hand, and the Black and White Impermanence"s Soulreaper Rope!
In that instant, the Wandering Dragon Sword flashed a blue light as a b.l.o.o.d.y aura soared to the sky!A head flew high and tumbled down onto the high platform. It was the center of the five great canyons that were used as a sacrifice to the heavens!
"Phew!"
Taking a long deep breath, Xiang Yun wiped the blood off his face in the silent plaza, using his sleeves to wipe the blood off the body of the Wandering Dragon Sword. His expression was calm, his heart even more so!
The moment he walked out of the life and death crisis, he already had the urge to kill Yang Guanglin. How dare such a despicable person plot against him and Fatty Niu?
Back then, when the Black Fire Python had chased him away and seen the latter carrying this fat cow on his back, Xiang Yun had planned to let him go.Who would have thought that he would actually dare to have such malicious thoughts? He threw Fatty Niu towards the Black Fire Double Headed Python, wanting to borrow its blade to kill someone and escape alone!
In that moment, in Xiang Yun"s heart, he was already a dead man. Such a beast, if not killed, the heavens would not tolerate this!
"It"s dead!"
At this moment, someone on the quiet square muttered something. The next moment, the entire square was filled with cries of surprise, like a pot of boiling water!
"Heavens, His Highness the crown prince killed Yang Guanglin!"
"That"s right, His Highness the crown prince actually killed him!"No one had expected that today, under the simultaneous attacks of His Highness and the Princess, Xiang Yun would actually behead Yang Guanglin with a single sword strike. Wasn"t this too audacious!?
There was no need to mention Yang Guanglin"s status. Aside from the royal family, he was considered one of the top family"s sons. His status was high, but he had actually been killed by Xiang Yun.Even though the latter seemed to have done something to frame Xiang Yun, without any proof, Xiang Yun was still able to kill him. It was truly terrifying.
Most of the people present were descendants of Feudal Lords, fully aware of the cruelty of the power struggle. Yang Guanglin"s death would definitely cause both Dragon City and Central State County to tremble. Even if Xiang Yun was the son of the King, he would still be "in trouble"!
Yang Guanglin"s head fell to the ground. After the shock had pa.s.sed, Xiang Changan could not help but be fl.u.s.tered. He leapt out from the crowd and leaped onto the stage, pointing at Xiang Yun as he shouted, "Xiang Yun, you have so much guts! You actually dared to kill someone!"
It was as if Xiang Yun had not heard Xiang Changan"s angry shout. He sheathed his sword and led Liu Hong, Housekeeper Zhang, and the rest of the guards down the stage."Xiang Yun, you …"
Seeing Xiang Yun dare to ignore him in public, Xiang Changan was even more enraged. The impetuous youth actually directly took a step forward, the strength of a Wuyun martial artist suddenly exploded as his fist smashed towards Xiang Yun"s back!
As a prince, Xiang Changan had suddenly attacked out of the blue. No one had expected this, not even the guards of the crown prince"s residence!Xiang Changan"s fist was about to land on Xiang Yun"s back when Xiang Yun"s body suddenly twisted. His body bent down and retreated, sticking close to Xiang Changan as he dodged the punch. In the next moment, he had appeared behind Xiang Changan!
Xiang Changan turned, ready to attack again, but just as he turned his head, his vision blurred!"Pah!"
A heavy slap caused Xiang Changan to stagger and almost fall down!
"You!"
Xiang Changan steadied himself. His eyes were filled with disbelief as he felt the burning pain on his face. The latter was stupefied!It wasn"t just Xiang Chang An; the entire field was deathly silent. Everyone"s eyes were either glazed or filled with shock!
"Oh my G.o.d!" He actually hit His Highness the Prince! "
"Am I seeing things? The Crown Prince actually slapped His Highness. Isn"t he too daring!"
"Oh my G.o.d, has His Highness gone mad?"
"Hua!"
Almost at the same time, the crowd burst into an uproar. They were all extremely shocked!
Xiang"er"s expression also changed, but she did not move forward or speak.As for Xiang Changan, after a moment of shock, his face immediately revealed a furious and crazed expression!
"You … You actually dared to hit me! Xiang Yun, you"ve committed an offense against your superiors! You deserve to die a thousand times over!"
Xiang Yun"s expression was indifferent, his tone cold, "Hmph, since royal uncle hasn"t taught you well, then I, as your brother, will teach you to be a person. It"s only right and right!" If you are not convinced, then you can argue between royal uncle and my father. Otherwise, it would be better if the two of us continue to argue. "
Upon hearing these words, the blade-bearing guards who were originally standing beside Xiang Chang An, ready to defend his honor to the death, were all struck dumb on the spot!Xiang Yun"s words had instantly turned what had originally been an outrageous and unrighteous action, into a matter of course. Moreover, it was the matter of the Xiang Family. Who would dare to interfere? Who could?
Xiang Chang An was so angry that his entire body was trembling. He clenched his fists tightly as he glared at Xiang Yun, ready to charge forward and fight with his life on the line!Facing the furious Xiang Changan, Xiang Yun"s expression turned even colder. He took a step forward to stand in front of him and face him. A dense killing intent scared Xiang Changan so much that he involuntarily took a step back!
"You should know what Yang Guanglin has done today!"
"I …" Hearing Xiang Yun"s question, Xiang Changan was at a loss for words. A trace of panic appeared on his angry face!
"You have to be glad that you did not take the lead in this matter, glad that you are still a little kid, or else, Yang Guanglin would not be the only one to see blood today!"
"Do your best!" Xiang Yun whispered into Xiang Changan"s ear!A cold shiver went down Xiang Changan"s spine as he stiffened, standing in place!
"Let"s go!"
With a wave of his hand, Xiang Yun led the guards of the crown prince"s residence away, leaving behind only Yang Guanglin, who was beheaded, and Xiang Changan, who was dumbstruck.
