SFS Chapter 276
Chapter 276
By the light of the fire in the temple, Cui Yanyun vaguely saw the crossbows in their hands.
"Broken crossbow?"
"Are you Jinyiwei?"
Just as he finished saying this in astonishment, a loud voice came from far away and reached their ears.
"Master Jing'an, you are indeed someone who once ruled the six palaces."
"Do you have a deep understanding of the weapons used by the emperor's personal guards?"
"Ok?"
Hearing this, Cui Yanyun subconsciously looked in the direction of the voice.
She saw a young face that was both familiar and unfamiliar to her.
I feel familiar with him because his portrait had been sent here a long time ago.
Strange because it was the first time she saw a real person!
"Xu, Xu Shan?"
"Ah, I, Xu Shan, am truly flattered that Master Jing'an recognized me at a glance."
"That portrait of Tuoba Ye, was it you who gave it to me?"
“It’s such a lifelike painting!”
"Did you ask someone to paint a picture for you? Can you put it right in the middle of the funeral hall next time?"
"Be bold!"
As soon as Xu Shan finished speaking, a female guard who was protecting Cui Yanyun took a step forward and immediately shouted angrily.
But just as she finished her words and before she could utter the second sentence, the sound of a crossbow arrow leaving the string suddenly resounded throughout the room.
'Pfft. '
The next second, the female guard, who was pricked like a hedgehog, fell to the ground unable to bear the burden.
There wasn't even a scream.
'Hiss.'
Instead, the sound of the few remaining female guards gasping for air subconsciously became the main theme of the quiet scene.
Cui Yanyun stared with eyes wide open, unable to believe that the other party could be so decisive and bold.
"As Ji Gang's disciple!"
"If I, Xu Shan, didn't have enough courage, how could I dare to enter the capital?"
"What do you think, Master Jing'an?"
The silence at the scene was abruptly broken by Xu Shan's voice.
"Xu...Shan..."
"How dare you disobey the late emperor's will?"
Cui Yanyun gritted his teeth and asked hysterically.
"Ouch!"
"You can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want."
"We can't afford to put the blame on the Inspection Department."
Xu Shan sneered and answered calmly.
"You know you can't bear the consequences, but you still dare to come to Baique Temple and set fire and kill people?"
"Master Jing'an, you misunderstood."
"The Inspection Department received a tip-off that you, Master, have been held hostage by the remnants of the Witchcraft Cult. We are here to kill the thieves."
After saying this, Xu Shan turned around and said, "Send a message to Lord Li."
"We are not knowledgeable enough to identify who has been bewitched and corrupted by the witchcraft cult."
"To ensure the safety of Master Jing'an..."
"I would rather kill a thousand people in vain than let one go."
"Yes."
As soon as Xu Shan gave the order, Cui Yanyun roared in frustration, "How dare you!"
After shouting this, she was out of breath and her body began to sway.
"Queen Dowager, calm down and take care of yourself."
"Yoyo, you can't blackmail me. You died suddenly or from anger. It has nothing to do with us."
"Also, stop using the title 'Queen Mother'. She is a thing of the past."
Hearing Xu Shan's words, Nanny Li, who was trying to calm Cui Yanyun down, turned around and shouted, "The late emperor's will..."
"Instruct all organizations not to disturb the nun's retreat without permission."
"But you guys..."
Before Li Ma Ma could finish her words, Xu Shan interrupted her, saying, "The late emperor's will left her alone here for the rest of her life."
"Do you know what the word 'lonely old man' means?"
"Let her die alone in this empty temple."
"Instead, she has a bunch of evil-minded dogs like you accompanying her."
After saying this, Xu Shan raised his right arm.
‘Squeak! ’
In an instant, the heart-wrenching sound of the crossbow arrow being stretched to its limit resounded throughout the entire venue.
"You, what are you going to do?"
"We are just following the late emperor's will."
"Aim carefully, don't hurt 'Master Jing'an'."
"Yes."
'Uh-huh. '
As Xu Shan's right arm fell, the sharp arrows and crossbows pierced through the guards guarding Cui Yanyun.
The only one who survived was Nanny Li, who was blocked behind Cui Yanyun.
"Xu Shan, don't go too far."
'bass! ’
'Sizzle.'
As soon as the other party finished speaking, Xu Shan drew his sword and slashed at the master and servant.
The powerful force of the sword first cut off the hair beside Cui Yanyun's left ear, and then split the head of Li Ma who was hiding behind her.
