The development of the situation was indeed a little beyond Xia Jian's expectations. He did not expect Li Zilong to dare to offend his superiors.
"Let's go to Yangxin Palace Hall!" Xia Jian left with Noble Consort Feng, leaving Consort Ji Shu in the Purple Hall.
Xia Jian was also worried that Consort Ji Shu would stay by his side. She had wanted to kill the Transformation Monarch back then. If she suddenly gave him a blow, all of Xia Jian's efforts would be in vain.
Arriving at Yangxin Palace Hall, Xia Jian placed the huge firework on his shoulder on the ground. After pulling the fire rope, the firework soared into the sky. Everyone in the capital saw this brilliant firework.
Yangxin Palace Hall was now surrounded by hundreds of eunuchs and the Jinyi Guards. Xia Jian and Noble Consort Feng were unable to enter.
"Wan Tong, what are you trying to do? Move aside!”In front of Yangxin Palace Hall, Noble Consort Feng loudly berated Wan Tong, telling him to get lost.
Wan Tong was Wan Zhen 'er's younger brother. Although his martial arts skills were mediocre, he relied on his relationship with Wan Zhen' er to become the commander of the North Town Bureau.
As for this Noble Consort Feng, others might be afraid of her, but Wan Tong was not.
A noble consort who had fallen out of favor. Wan Tong had slept with several such noble consorts, so how could he be afraid of Noble Consort Feng?
Now that the Emperor was under house arrest by Li Zilong, the entire palace was under Li Zilong and Wan Zhen 'er's control. Wantong was even more daring.
"I say, Madam Feng, why didn't you stay in your Zi Hua Hall and enjoy your retirement? Why did you come here to join in the fun?”Wan Tong stood there with a long sword in his hand, looking like a hoodlum.
Behind him, hundreds of Embroidered Uniform Guards and eunuchs holding sharp weapons laughed along with Wan Tong.
From the looks of it, this group of Brocade Guards would not make way for Xia Jian and Noble Consort Feng to enter.
"Wantong, do you really think that your Wan family can be fearless just because you rely on Imperial Concubine Wan? I advise you to move aside. Otherwise, you'll die an ugly death!”Xia Jian said.
"Yo? Isn't this our ceremonial director's seal lord? Shouldn't you be supervising the army in Guyuan at this time? Why are you hanging out with Noble Consort Feng?”Wan Tong held his throat and deliberately made this strange tone to mock Xia Jian.
Hearing Wan Tong's ridicule, Xia Jian frowned. In his eyes, Wan Tong was no different from a dead man.
"Since you won't move, then die!”Xia Jian's face darkened. He slowly drew his Shangfang Sword and charged in with Noble Consort Feng.
Seeing that Xia Jian had made a move, Wan Tong roared and ordered hundreds of guards, eunuchs, and Jinyiwei to go up to him. In front of Yangxin Hall, there were flashes of swords and blood splattered everywhere.
Xia Jian had Noble Consort Feng with him. Although he was a burden, these people were no match for him. He didn't even bother to use the Disorder Sword Technique to kill them.
Noble Consort Feng was also extremely afraid. She had lived in the palace for a long time and had never seen such a killing scene.
But for some reason, with Xia Jian by her side, Noble Consort Feng's heart calmed down.
The sharpness of the Shangfang Sword sliced through the throats of countless people and severed countless arms. These hundreds of people were simply unable to stop Xia Jian's pace.
Xia Jian led Noble Consort Feng, and with every few steps they took, several people fell. By the time they entered Yangxin Palace Hall, he had already killed more than thirty people.
"Your Majesty? Where are you, Your Majesty?" In Yangxin Palace Hall, Imperial Concubine Feng did not find any trace of Emperor Cheng!
Wasn't he in Yangxin Palace Hall?
Xia Jian frowned. If he wasn't there, where would the Transformation Monarch be hidden by these people?
Seeing that he had not become the Transformation Monarch, Xia Jian's figure moved and once again charged towards the group of Embroidered Uniform Guards, rushing towards the place where Wan Tong was.
When Wan Tong saw this, he turned around and wanted to run, but his speed was no match for Xia Jian's. He was quickly caught up.
This skill could be used to seize the enemy's weapon or capture the enemy alive.
Just like that, Wan Tong was easily captured by Xia Jiansheng.
"Damned eunuch, let me go. Otherwise, I'll definitely ask my sister to kill you!”Wan Hong said with red eyes.
Xia Jian didn't say a word. He swung his sword and one of Wan Tong's arms was dislocated.
The intense pain almost made Wan Tong faint. The veins on his face bulged. One hand only held the wound, but blood continued to flow.
"Don't kill me, don't kill me, I don't want to die, I don't want to die, save me, save me!”
Wan Tong was terrified at this moment. Under this threat to his life, he no longer had a trace of domineering aura.
"You don't want to die? Alright, tell me, where did you hide His Majesty?”Xia Jian asked.
Wan Tong shook his head like a rattle-drum and said,"No, no, I can't say it. If I say it, the state preceptor will kill me!”
Don't say? Then die!
However, before killing Wan Tong, Xia Jian still had to find the whereabouts of the Transformation Monarch.
"Since you don't want to tell me, I can only use the Omniscient Mirror!”
Xia Jian used the Omniscient Mirror and instantly saw through Wan Tong's thoughts. After knowing the whereabouts of the Transformation Monarch, he pierced through Wan Tong's heart with his sword.
Wan Tong fell to the ground powerlessly, unable to move. Even in death, he never thought that Xia Jian would really dare to kill him.
Through the Omniscient Mirror, Xia Jian found out where the Transformation Monarch was hidden from Wan Tong's mind.
He was still in Yangxin Palace Hall, but the Transformation Emperor was hidden in the pill furnace by the Demonic Priest.
Xia Jian didn't know whether to laugh or cry when he released the Transformation Monarch Cheng from the pill furnace.
Could it be that Wu Chengen, the author of Journey to the West, was inspired by Emperor Chenghua and wrote the plot of Taishang Laojun refining monkeys in the pill furnace?
When Transformation Monarch Cheng was rescued from the alchemy furnace, he was in a very sorry state. He was dirty and tortured to the point of death.
Xia Jian reversed the Six Meridians Divine Sword and injected a few strands of Genuine Qi into the Transformation Monarch's body before he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Your Majesty, I came late to save you. Please forgive me, Your Majesty!”Xia Jian held the Shangfang Sword and half-knelt in front of the Transformation Monarch.
The Transformation Monarch Cheng was about to lose all his face. How could he still have the cheek to forgive others?
Pulling Xia Jian up, Transformation Monarch Cheng said,""My dear minister, you have finally returned. This Demonic Priest actually locked me in the pill furnace after you left.”
"Beloved minister, you must capture him alive, because zhen wants to personally scrape this damned Demonic Priest alive!”
The Transformation Monarch was weak now, but he was furious when he thought about how Li Zilong had locked him in the furnace and treated him like a pig or a dog.
When Xia Jian killed Wan Tong, the Brocade Guards and eunuchs outside scattered like monkeys when the tree fell. It was unknown whether they went to the Demonic Priest to report it.
At this moment, crackling gunshots could be heard coming from the Hall of Heaven's Tribute. Xia Jianming knew that his 5,000 musketeers had charged in!
"Minister Xia, did you hear that? It seems like my Divine Arms Battalion has come to rescue me?”When Monarch Cheng heard the gunshot, he finally showed some joy.
Divine Arms Battalion? If it was really them, they were not here to rescue the Transformation Monarch but to rebel.
