A brawny man was easily bitten to death by the tiger. The group of people immediately trembled in fear. The remaining people also saw the brutality of the tiger and did not dare to charge forward.
The tiger was getting closer and closer, and the horses kept retreating. Li Yuanhao shouted,""Whoever dares to capture the tiger, this king will reward him with ten thousand taels and become his brother.”
Going forward would be suicide. His followers decisively chose the latter between wealth and life. No one dared to make a sound. Li Yuanhao sighed that his reputation was probably going to be buried here.
"I'll do it."
The frightened attendants immediately looked over. Everyone wanted to know who was so reckless. Li Yuanhao also looked at the guard beside Wang Yuyan and said in fear,"Alright, there will always be brave men under heavy injuries. As long as you capture the tiger, this king will immediately become your sworn brother.”
"Which hero can lend me two weapons?" asked Qin Chuan.”
Two of the guards immediately threw two spears over. Qin Chuan tested the length and found that it was just right. He was prepared to head towards the tiger.
Wang Yuyan was also somewhat worried, worried that Qin Chuan would be injured by the tiger. She softly said,"Brother Qin, be careful."
Qin Chuan smiled at Wang Yuyan. Without saying a word, he ran towards the tiger. Halfway there, he threw a spear at it, and it pierced right into the tiger's butt.
The ferocious tiger let out a roar, but it didn't flee. Instead, it became even more irritable. It opened its ferocious mouth wide and charged towards Qin Chuan.
Qin Chuan and the tiger were getting closer and closer. Li Yuanhao and the others were also sweating for Qin Chuan. Wang Yuyan was so scared that she closed her eyes.
Qin Chuan roared and directly broke the long spear in his hand into two, making it easier for him to attack in close quarters. The tiger's huge body pounced towards Qin Chuan, but Qin Chuan didn't dodge. Instead, he leaped up and when he descended, he directly stabbed the long spear in his hand into the tiger's right eye. When the tiger was in immense pain, he had already grabbed onto the tiger's tail tightly and flung it forward with all his might.
The tiger was forcefully flung away by Qin Chuan for more than ten meters. With a bang, it crashed into a tree before coming to a stop. Qin Chuan did not give it a chance to catch its breath. He exerted force with his palm towards the group of guards and activated the Capturing Long Art. More than ten spears were sucked over by Qin Chuan. Following which, he used the Overwhelming Regret of the Eighteen Palms. These more than ten spears pierced towards the tiger's body together with a huge palm wind.
The tiger's huge body collapsed on the ground. Its body was pierced like a sieve, and the scene was extremely bloody.
Qin Chuan returned to Wang Yuyan's side and softly said,"It's settled."
Li Yuanhao began to carefully examine this youth. He did not expect this person to be so powerful. His guards were also experts who had killed countless enemies on the battlefield, but compared to this youth, they were like ants trying to shake a tree.
"Good, indeed a young hero!" Li Yuanhao couldn't help but cheer. He also sincerely admired this young man."From now on, this young man is this king's brother.”
Qin Chuan wasn't interested in glory and wealth. He had stepped forward for the sake of Wang Yuyan. It didn't matter whether they were brothers or not. However, he still gladly accepted it, lest the Emperor lose face.
Earlier, Qin Chuan's valiant performance of slaying the tiger had also caused Wang Yu Yan to have a whole new level of respect for him. In truth, she didn't know how strong Qin Chuan's martial arts were. This was the first time she had seen him, and she was already deeply shocked. In her eyes, Murong Fu's martial arts were already very high, but the combat strength that Qin Chuan had just displayed was something that even five Murong Fus wouldn't be able to match.
When the group returned to the palace in the dark, the palace gates were tightly shut. A guard hurriedly rode forward and shouted,"The emperor has returned to the palace, quickly open the city gates.”
The palace gate did not open, and no one responded. Li Yuanhao felt a little strange. When he went out to hunt in the past, there were always guards guarding the gate. Why was there no one now?
Suddenly, torches lit up on the city gate tower. A group of armored soldiers stood on the city gate tower and looked down. A soldier on top shouted,"Li Yuanhao, how dare you not kneel when you see the emperor?”
Li Yuanhao broke out in a cold sweat when he heard this. He looked through the light of the torch and saw a man in a long robe and a purple gold crown standing on the city tower.
Li Yuanhao was quite familiar with this person in the emperor's costume. It was none other than Li Yuanhao's uncle, Li Dezhao.
Li Dezhao was the younger brother of Li Yuanhao's father, Li Deming. When Li Deming inherited the throne, Li Dezhao was quite unconvinced, but because the difference in strength was too great, he did not rebel.
Now that Li Deming had passed away, Li Dezhao secretly gathered his forces and took advantage of the time when Li Yuanhao was out hunting to collude with Li Qiu Shui in the palace and quickly control the guards in the palace.
Li Qiu Shui was Li Deming's concubine. After Li Deming passed away, she got together with Li Dezhao not long after. Li Dezhao promised her that as long as he got the throne, he would make Li Qiu Shui the queen. The queen would be the empress dowager in the future, much higher than Li Qiu Shui's current imperial consort.
Li Dezhao looked at the panic-stricken Li Yuanhao and said with a smile,"My good nephew, come and greet the new emperor. Aren't you happy that I, your uncle, am ascending to the throne today?”
Li Yuanhao gritted his teeth in anger, but there was nothing he could do. He looked at the followers behind him. There were less than twenty of them in total. His eyes slowly dimmed as he muttered,"There's no hope, there's no hope."
At this moment, Qin Chuan rode his horse forward and said to Li Yuanhao,"What is the emperor thinking now?"
Li Yuanhao didn't even raise his head and calmly said,"All of you, go and run for your lives.”
"What about you? What about you?" Qin Chuan calmly asked.
"Just let me die here. The empire left behind by my father has been destroyed in my hands. How can I still have the face to live?”Li Yuanhao's tone became more and more sympathetic.
Qin Chuan's tone suddenly became higher,"Your Majesty, you don't have to be sad. I, Qin Chuan, will help you take back the throne."”
When these words reached the ears of Li Yuanhao and his subordinates, it was like a bolt from the blue sky. Although they had witnessed the scene of Qin Chuan killing the tiger and knew that he was very capable, no matter how capable he was, he could not take down this city alone.
"Brother Qin, I understand your intentions, but…the situation is hopeless." Li Yuanhao sighed.”
Qin Chuan knew that no one would believe his words, so he didn't say anything more. He gave the horse a hard whip, and the horse seemed to have gone mad as it galloped towards the city gate tower.
Li Dezhao immediately ordered his subordinates to release arrows. The thousands of people on the city gate tower nocked their bows and shot towards Qin Chuan. The densely packed arrows pressed down like a wall. (I hope everyone can support me)
