Don't You Know That Villains Die from Talking Too Much?
"Brother Ximen, it's been many years. How have you been?!”Ye Gucheng waved his hand and the maids behind him jumped down from the city gate tower. Then, he looked at Ximen Chuixue and asked indifferently,"
Ximen Chuixue remained indifferent. He nodded slightly and said,"Thank you for taking care of me. I'm lucky to be safe."
"In that case, then... Let's begin!"
"Good!"
The two of them stared at each other, their eyes shining.
The others were very far away from them, but they could still feel the sword qi emitted from the two of them.
Although their swords had yet to be unsheathed, their sword auras were already shocking.
This kind of sharp sword qi was originally emitted by their own bodies.
What was scary was the people themselves, not the swords in their hands.
However, if one looked closely, they would discover that Ximen Chuixue's sword qi was as sharp as a divine weapon. It had almost enveloped the entire city gate tower of Di 'an Gate.
Ye Gucheng himself was much weaker.
Comparing the two of them was like comparing the stars to the full moon.
Such a gap naturally could not be hidden from the surrounding experts.
These experts frowned.
What was going on?
How could the gap between Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuixue be so huge?!
That shouldn't be the case.
Although the two had never fought before, they had both been famous in Jianghu for a long time. Countless swordsmen had died under their swords.
Therefore, the people in Jianghu speculated that the two of them were equally powerful.
Tonight's battle at the summit of the forbidden city was also the pinnacle battle of the Ming Dynasty's martial arts world.
Who knew that there would be a hint of a strong start but a weak end.
Ye Gucheng?
How could he be so weak?
Ximen Chuixue naturally noticed the strangeness of his opponent.
What was going on?
Could it be because he was seriously injured?!
However, before he could speak, the other party had already raised his sword and said to Ximen Chuixue,"If this sword is unsheathed, it will definitely bleed. If there are any casualties tonight, I hope Brother Ximen will not blame me. Fighting with you is my lifelong wish.”
When Ximen Chuixue heard this, he sighed."Wait a moment."
"How long do we have to wait?"
"Wait until the wound stops bleeding."
Whose wound?"
"You…"
This conversation was earth-shattering.
No wonder!
So it was true that Ye Gucheng was injured.
I said it!
How could the Sword Qi of an expert who was suspected to be in Celestial Being Realm, or at least at the peak of Great Grandmaster Realm, be so weak?!
Hearing Ximen Chuixue's words, Ye Gucheng heaved a sigh of relief.
He didn't insist anymore. He cupped his hands and said to Ximen Chuixue,"Brother Ximen, since that's the case, please give me an hour to adjust my internal energy.”After saying that, he sat cross-legged on the city gate tower and began to regulate his internal strength.
Ximen Chuixue did not rush him. Instead, he stood silently at the side as if he was protecting him.
At this moment, the noise below the city gate tower sounded again.
The peak confrontation that everyone had expected had actually turned out like this, so many people had a hint of disappointment on their faces.
However, he only needed to wait for another hour.
He had already waited for so many days, so what was the harm in waiting another hour?!
Lu Xiaofeng frowned.
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong.
First of all, Ye Gucheng's injury was very strange. Secondly, it was strange for him to be injured and to delay the final battle for an hour after he arrived.
This matter was like a cloud of fog that shrouded Lu Xiaofeng, making him unable to see what was going on.
Suddenly, Lu Xiaofeng saw Wang Haocang, the commander of the Imperial Army, who was watching the show with his arms crossed. He used a little force and came to Wang Haocang's side."Why are you here? Where is His Majesty?!”
" Your Majesty?" Wang Haocang was confused.! His Majesty should be in the royal study. There are many Jianghu people outside the Di 'an Gate today, so His Majesty sent the Imperial Army to maintain order. As the commander of the Imperial Army, what's so strange about me being here?!”
He was not the only one. The Commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guards, the Governor of the East Chamber, Liu Xi, and many other experts in the capital were all attracted by the battle tonight, so they all came to watch the battle at Di 'an Gate.
Lu Xiaofeng seemed to be talking to himself and said,""In other words, the guards of the palace tonight are very weak?!”
Wang Haocang also realized that something was wrong.
If someone took this opportunity to rebel, the little Emperor would only have a single dog by his side, Yu Huatian.
艹!!!
The two of them looked at each other and squeezed out of the crowd at the same time, speeding toward the royal study.
...
Outside the royal study.
Zhu Honghuan looked at Zhu Zhang, who looked like a villain who had achieved success, and asked with a frown,"Looking at your arrogant appearance, do you mean that you are going to eat me today?!”
Zhu Zhang looked at Zhu Honghuan with disdain and asked,"So what if I am?"
With a wave of his hand, these soldiers had already surrounded Zhu Honghuan.
Zhu Zhangcai continued," All the officials in the court praised you for your wisdom and intelligence. You have the appearance of a wise ruler. But who would have thought that you were just a superficial person? My king…" No, I only used a little trick and you obediently submitted and transferred all the Imperial Army out of the palace. Zhu Honghuan, even a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal can't save you today. If you cooperate obediently, I can still leave your corpse intact. If you want to resist, hmph, don't blame me for being ruthless.”
"Hehe…Is that so?" Zhu Honghuan was still not angry. Instead, he held the folding fan in his hand and clapped his hands."If Zhen didn't send all the Imperial Army out of the palace in advance, how could you have been deceived? Do you really think I don't know that you're plotting behind my back? Hehe, what I didn't know was that there was actually such a poisonous snake hidden in the palace, so... This one's plan is somewhat effective."
"Oh, right." Zhu Honghuan continued," Try to speak less the next time you do something bad. Don't you know that villains die from talking too much?"!”
As soon as he finished speaking, he turned his wrist and the folding fan in his hand suddenly turned into a sharp sword. The sword qi rushed into the sky and was so dazzling that even the full moon in the sky seemed to have lost its color.

P.S. I was really unlucky today. I encountered all kinds of things, so I originally planned to add more chapters. I guess there's no hope. I'll try my best to guarantee 4 chapters today, and then add 6 chapters tomorrow. The next update was estimated to be around 12 o'clock, because Little Slut Jun still had to code the last chapter of another book.
