Chapter 36: Chapter 36 Brother, times have changed! !
Translator: 549690339
After dealing with the assassins from Misty Pavilion, Chu Yuqin and Wang Qingci headed to the Training Ground together.
Wang Qingci was somewhat curious as to why Chu Yuqin would dare leave the North Prince at such a time. Although she knew that the North Prince might be somewhat capable, after all, Blood Moon Tower had sent so many Ninth Grade Martial Artists, and there was even a Half-step Grandmaster among them.
Could it be that Chu Yuqin was not at all worried about her Chen’er being killed?
Or did Chu Yuqin think that Lu Chen was fully capable of dealing with the assassins from Blood Moon Tower?
Had the strength of the North Prince Mansion really become so strong?
While Wang Qingci was filled with questions, they had already arrived at the Prince’s Mansion’s Training Ground. Seeing the people from Blood Moon Tower surrounded on the Training Ground, Wang Qingci froze in place.
At this time, the corpses littered the Training Ground, but these bodies all belonged to the assassins from Blood Moon Tower.
Currently, only two Ninth Grade along with Blood Moon Tower’s Vice Tower Master Liu Yuan were still alive.
But their situation was very bad.
The three of them were covered in blood, and it was clear that the two surviving Ninth Grade Martial Artists were seriously injured. If they weren’t treated promptly, death wasn’t likely far away.
It hadn’t been that long.
Had the soldiers of the North Prince Mansion really captured all the assassins sent by Blood Moon Tower in one fell swoop?
Wang Qingci felt as if she was dreaming.
She knew the North Prince Mansion might have some strength, but she had never anticipated that the North Prince Mansion could resolve the situation with the assassins from Blood Moon Tower in such a short period of time.
That was five Ninth Grades!
And a Half-step Grandmaster too!
Even if the North Prince Mansion truly had a Master Realm powerhouse, it shouldn’t have been possible to resolve so many people in less than a quarter of an hour, right?
How did the North Prince Mansion do it?
At this moment, Wang Qingci turned her head to look at Lu Chen, who was walking towards the Training Ground from afar.
If she wanted to know how the North Prince Mansion did it, she would probably have to wait and personally ask the North Prince later.
During this time, Liu Yuan, supporting his injured body with a sword planted in the ground, clenched his teeth and said with a cold laugh when he saw the North Prince slowly emerge from the crowd, “North Prince, I didn’t expect you to be the one who’s been hiding the deepest!”
“It seems the whole world has been deceived by you!”
At this moment, Liu Yuan had lost his earlier sharpness. It hadn’t been long, but almost all of his people had perished, leaving only three seriously injured people.
The kind of weapon that the North Prince Mansion had just brought out, let alone a Half-step Grandmaster, 1 fear even a true Grandmaster might not be able to fully withstand it.
He had never dreamed that one day he would actually fall at the hands of a worthless Prince.
Hearing Liu Yuan’s words, Lu Chen said indifferently, “Tower Master Liu, do you have any last words? Later, when this Prince annihilates Blood Moon Tower, perhaps I can convey your last words to your Tower Master.”
Liu Yuan laughed loudly, “Impertinent brat, since you want to kill me, then I shall take you down with me!”
As he spoke, Liu Yuan suddenly drew the sword planted in the ground and charged straight at Lu Chen.
A fierce and proud smile appeared on Liu Yuan’s face. Had the North Prince not come out earlier, he certainly wouldn’t have been able to kill the North Prince.
But the North Prince should not have, at this time, come out to mock him!
At such a close distance, and being a Half-step Grandmaster, although he was seriously injured, it was still possible to kill a worthless person.
Seeing this scene, Wang Qingci’s complexion changed drastically, and she cried out, “Oh no!”
Just when Wang Qingci thought Lu Chen was in danger, she found that the people around her remained motionless.
The soldiers of the Prince’s Mansion and Chu Yuqin just stood in place, quietly watching the scene unfold, as if they hadn’t seen Liu Yuan’s intention to perish together with Lu Chen.
Wang Qingci was stunned. She didn’t understand why the soldiers of the Prince’s Mansion and Chu Yuqin were reacting so calmly.
Liu Yuan was a Half-step Grandmaster.
Even if he was seriously injured, taking a high-level Ninth Grade with him before dying wouldn’t be a problem.
Yet the people of the Prince’s Mansion were indifferent to the scene.
Soon, Wang Qingci understood why the people of the Prince’s Mansion had no reaction to the scene whatsoever.
At that moment, she saw Lu Chen take out a black stick-like weapon and aim it at Liu Yuan, who was charging towards him.
Seeing the stick in Lu Chen’s hand, Liu Yuan laughed loudly, “A mere worthless Prince dares to face me alone in combat. Do you think that because 1 am seriously injured, 1 can no longer kill you!”
Liu Yuan saw that no one around him moved, and when he saw Lu Chen pull out a stick, he even thought Lu Chen had gone mad, wishing to end his own life.
While speaking, Liu Yuan had already arrived in front of Lu Chen.
“Go to hell for this seat!”
As Liu Yuan’s sword was about to chop down on Lu Chen, Wang Qingci’s heart leapt into her throat.
However, at that moment, what she feared did not happen.
Suddenly, a loud noise erupted, followed by Lu Chen stepping back.
Bang…
The instant the gunshot sounded, Lu Chen smiled and said, “Old chap, the times have changed!”
The next moment, Liu Yuan’s body instantly flew out, and a huge bloody hole appeared in his back.
Witnessing this scene, Wang Qingci was completely stunned.
What had just happened?
And what was that loud noise?
She had only seen Liu Yuan swing his sword at North Prince, then North Prince, holding a stick, faced Liu Yuan, after which Liu Yuan was flung away, with a huge bloody hole appearing in his body.
North Prince hadn’t even moved, yet Liu Yuan died?
Wang Qingci was no fool; she quickly realized that it was the black stick in Lu Chen’s hand that had killed Liu Yuan.
Wang Qingci’s mind was bewildered.
A Half-step Grandmaster.
Just like that, dead?
What kind of weapon did North Prince have in his hand that was so terrifying?
Could there really be such a weapon in this world that could instantly kill a Half-step Grandmaster?
Wang Qingci’s mind quickly connected all recent events.
She finally understood why Blood Moon Tower’s first assassination attempt had failed.
And she finally comprehended why North Prince was not at all afraid of Blood Moon Tower’s assassination attempts.
At the same time, she realized why the soldiers of North Prince Mansion, including Chu Yuqin herself, were indifferent to North Prince’s danger.
Where was the danger for North Prince?
The one in danger was Liu Yuan!
A Half-step Grandmaster, with just a glance at North Prince, had a huge bloody hole appear in his body instantaneously.
With such a weapon in hand, North Prince need not fear any Half-step Grandmaster.
Not to mention a Half-step Grandmaster, perhaps even a Grandmaster couldn’t withstand that mysterious weapon.
Seeing the black stick in Lu Chen’s hand again, Wang Qingci unconsciously broke out in cold sweats on her pristine forehead.
That black stick seemed to emanate a thick scent of blood, causing Wang Qingci’s delicate body to shiver uncontrollably.
In fact, it wasn’t just Wang Qingci who was shocked by the scene, even Li Feng and others who had previously seen Lu Chen use the Batrelei to snipe a Ninth Grade Martial Artist were equally stunned.
The last time Blood Moon Tower had attempted to assassinate North Prince, North Prince’s target was only a Ninth Grade Martial Artist.
But this time, the one dead at North Prince’s hand was a Half-step Grandmaster.
A Half-step Grandmaster!
This was an existence that even the court would try to win over.
Moreover, the previous grenade hadn’t even killed this Half-step Grandmaster of Blood Moon Tower.
But in front of North Prince, before North Prince’s mysterious weapon, killing this Half-step Grandmaster was just a matter of an instant.
Seeing the huge bloody hole in Liu Yuan’s back, nearly everyone felt a chill down their spine.
For a moment, the Training Ground was as silent as a graveyard at night, until the pleas for mercy from the remaining two Ninth Grade Martial Artists of Blood Moon Tower broke the silence, bringing people back to their senses..
