"Is this Lou Lan?"
A red-haired youth stood outside the town.
Looking at the tall wall in front of him, Sword Heart leaped over it easily.
They had already arrived at the Watergate. What Sword Heart needed to do now was to meet up with them.
They walked on the street with a swagger. The villagers on both sides of the street were all dressed plainly and were all ordinary people.
Most people wore patched clothes, so Lou Lan was probably not that prosperous.
The most eye-catching thing in the town was the tower.
As they ran towards the tower, they couldn't help but quicken their pace.
The tower was more than a hundred meters tall, and right below it, there seemed to be a grand ceremony being held. Groups of people gathered together to praise their queen.
Cheers and praises continued.
Watching from afar, Sword Heart frowned slightly. These people were very different from the previous residents. They were all wearing silk ribbons.
The residents of the same place had such a huge difference in their living standards. It was suspicious.
Everyone raised their arms and cheered at the people on the tower.
Looking up the tower, there was a woman at the top with a group of guards and ministers standing behind her. She must be the queen of Loulan.
The Queen enjoyed the cheers of her people and was immersed in it for a moment. She did not notice the demonic claws that were reaching out to her from behind.
With a push from his palm, the Queen staggered two steps forward, and the high platform under her feet suddenly collapsed.
"Boom!"
Gravel tumbled down, and the queen fell down as well.
The stone fell and smashed into the ground in front of the crowd. However, these people did not even make a sound of fear. No one even dodged.
Sword Heart didn't have the time to care about that. He leaped up and used the momentum to jump high into the sky to catch the Queen. He then quickly left and hid in a dark corner.
After landing on the ground, he put the woman down and said,""Are you the queen here?"
The woman sat on the ground in a daze as if she was scared silly.
"Ah!"
An ear-piercing scream suddenly rang out. This woman's reflex arc was indeed long enough. She only remembered to scream after a long while.
"You, you, you…who are you?"
" Akimura Kenshin, Koba Ninja."
Sword Heart turned his head and stared at the people who were still cheering under the tower.
The Queen had already fallen, so who were they cheering for?
"You're too rude. How can you hug a girl so casually?”
The woman pouted and complained to Sword Heart, her face blushing.
"Oh right, you saved my life. I should thank you first.”
"My name is Sara, the queen here. Thank you for saving me.”
Sara stood up and bowed politely to Kenshin, as if she had a split personality disorder. Her reflex arc was unusually long.
"You're the queen, how could you fall from the tower?”
Tapping her lips with her finger, Sara recalled,""I remember that someone pushed me from behind, and I fell off when I lost my balance.”
"Then someone wants to harm you."
"This is impossible!"
Sara's reaction was a little too big. She pointed at the cheering crowd in the distance and said,"I am the queen here. Look, my people love me so much. How could anyone harm me?”
" What?" Sword Heart laughed contemptuously." Since no one harmed you, who would push you down from the tower?"”
"This…maybe it's my illusion.”
Sara's tone softened a little, and her head lowered.
Sword Heart frowned and pointed at the cheering crowd.""You said that they love you, but who do they love now?”
"I…"
Sara's eyes widened as she realized that these people didn't react at all when she fell from such a high tower.
"They don't even care about your life and death, so how can they love you?”
Sara clenched her fists tightly, but she was still deceiving herself."Maybe the tower is too high. They can't see that high at all.”
This woman was a one-track-minded person, and Sword Heart didn't want to say anything more. Coincidentally, he heard a familiar voice.
"Sword Heart, you finally made it here.”
As soon as he finished speaking, a few figures instantly appeared. They were Shui Men and the others who had arrived.
Although they were all wearing masks, their identities could still be seen from their clothes.
" Who…are you??"
Sara stared at the three of them cautiously.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. We're Muye's ninjas. We're ordered to protect you.”
"Muye…"
Sara bit her red lips, obviously unaware of this.
"Lord Ding, Zhiwei, escort Her Majesty the Queen back to the palace and ensure her safety.”
"Understood."
Still staring at the crowd, Sword Heart frowned.
Noticing Kenshin, Watergate asked,"Kenshin, did you find anything?"?”
"Look at those things."
Pointing at the crowd, Jian Xin's eyes gleamed.
After a moment of careful observation, Shui Men was shocked and whispered,""A puppet."
Sara was escorted away. She knew nothing about this, but she still foolishly thought that she was the great queen revered by the people.
