In front of the imperial tomb.

Xie Jin sat inside the house, while Jiang Qu and his men were guarding outside.

Xie Jin was drinking tea when suddenly his eyebrows raised as he heard someone approaching from a distance.

Then Jiang Qu also heard a group of chaotic footsteps coming towards the room where they were.

Jiang Qu said sternly:

"Someone is coming, protect the prince!"

There were twenty guards who stayed with Xie Jin. After hearing Jiang Qu's order, the twenty people drew their swords and stood in front of Xie Jin's room, staring around vigilantly.

In the open space in front of the huge imperial mausoleum, a young and beautiful woman walked slowly with a group of people, holding a zither in her hand.

Judging from the number of people coming from the other side, there are at least a hundred of them, and they have bad intentions. There are assassins from the Karen Kingdom standing not only in front, but also on the rooftops around.

This situation was intended to strangle all of them here, Jiang Qu's expression was cold.

Seeing Xie Jin sitting calmly in the room, Liu Ruochu sneered and said:

"Your Highness Prince Rong, long time no see."

Beside her stood Bermer.

Bo Mo stared at Xie Jin with a captivating gaze.

Since the day Jin Shuo and many of his companions were arrested, Xie Jin tortured them severely in prison and forced them to reveal the whereabouts of many of their companions.

Over the past half month, dozens of their companions have been captured or killed one after another. The entire capital has issued a wanted order to capture Liu Ruochu, forcing them to hide in Qiluzhai like rats crossing the street, not daring to show up.

Later, the sad news came that Jin Shuo died in prison. Jin Shuo and he had always been by the side of the Saint, and he was his good brother. He died at the hands of Xie Jin, and he vowed to avenge Jin Shuo!

Xie Jin walked out of the room slowly, with his hands behind his back, and glanced at Liu Ruochu and the hundreds of assassins she brought with her.

"Tuoba Qilan, the fifth princess of Kelun, the younger sister of Tuoba Gaozhuo, it's hard for you to fall out of favor after the death of your royal brother and mother, but you were able to climb to the position of saint with a vengeful heart and come to the capital to assassinate the king. You must have suffered a lot over the years."

As soon as he came, he just rubbed salt into her wounds. Liu Ruochu gritted her teeth, and the smile on her face disappeared, replaced by a vicious and cruel look.

"What kind of life have I lived these years? All the pain and suffering I have experienced are all caused by you, Xie Jin. You have ruined my life! Today is the day to pay with blood! Go, kill them!"

Liu Ruochu waved her hand, and the assassins from the Karen Kingdom, led by Bo Mo, rushed towards Xie Jin!

More than twenty people had to deal with hundreds of assassins from the other side. Xie Jin's side did not have the advantage in numbers, but each of them was well-trained. The guards who stayed here were all dressed as secret guards from Prince Rong's mansion. When the killer rushed over, everyone was determined to die to protect Xie Jin and kill him!

Bo Mo clenched the sword in his hand and rushed straight towards Xie Jin!

Before he got close, Jiang Qu rushed out from the side and blocked Bo Mo's sword.

"Qiang!"

The two sharp swords created sparks in the air.

Jiang Qu said coldly: "You are not qualified to get close to the prince. Let me meet you!"

Jiang Qu swung his sword and knocked Bo Mo's sword back.

Bo Mo's eyes became fierce, and he attacked with Jiang Qu as his opponent!

After Bo Mo's figure flashed past, Liu Ruochu suddenly appeared behind him and attacked Xie Jin!

At the same time, his fingertips plucked the sound of the piano, and the unsettling sound of the piano rang out in front of the empty imperial mausoleum. The air blades raised by the sound of the piano shot towards Xie Jin and the people around him!

Xie Jin stepped back.

Liu Ruochu is chasing closely!

The sharp blade brought by her murderous voice flew in front of Xie Jin, but failed to hit him. Instead, it was visibly blocked by a powerful force in front of Xie Jin.

The air blade hit the energy and emitted a dazzling silver light. There seemed to be an invisible wall in front of Xie Jin that blocked all her attacks.

When Liu Ruochu saw this, his eyes became more ferocious, and his fingers plucked the strings faster, and countless air blades shot towards Xie Jin again!

Xie Jin's expression remained calm, not affected at all.

Seeing him like this, Liu Ruchu couldn't help but feel frightened. This devilish man, what kind of monster is he?

The two of them chased for a distance, and when Liu Ruochu came to her senses from her shock, she found that Xie Jin had led her away from the fighting crowd.

Xie Jin stopped, it was his turn to fight back. With a sneer on his face, he gathered his powerful internal strength into his palm and struck Liu Ruchu!

Liu Ruochu was startled and turned away, and the sound of the piano was forced to stop!

She dodged in time, and Xie Jin's fierce palm wind brushed past her face. The strong wind stirred the air and blew it on her face. Liu Ruochu leaned back to avoid it, pushed off the ground with one foot, and flew backwards, plucking the strings again.

This time, Xie Jin attacked Liu Ruochu as fast as a ghost!

Liu Ruochu dodged flexibly, and while retreating he poured all his internal energy into the sound of the piano to attack Xie Jin, trying to find his weakness!

The piercing sound of the piano pierced the sky. The two men fought quickly, and from time to time there were rumbling sounds, and from time to time the floor tiles flew, raising clouds of smoke and dust!

Liu Ruochu brought so many people with him because he knew that even if he tried his best, he might still not be a match for Xie Jin!

When she was escaping from Taihe Palace that day, she fought with Xie Jin. She did not use her full strength, and neither did Xie Jin, so she could not estimate the depth of Xie Jin's martial arts skills.

To deal with him, Liu Ruchu did not dare to reveal all her cards. When other assassins came towards Xie Jin, she would avoid them if possible and wait for an opportunity to launch a fatal attack on Xie Jin.

However, Xie Jin is not so easy to deal with!

The assassin who attacked him was knocked away by several palms before he got close to him. The next second, his eyes were fixed on Liu Ruchu again.

Liu Ruochu felt a chill down her spine. She was clearly the one chasing Xie Jin, but now Xie Jin was targeting her instead!

Liu Ruochu switched from offense to defense and began to dash around in the crowd!

She also discovered that her piano music didn't seem to have any effect on Xie Jin's people!

Ordinary people would become confused and faint after listening to her piano playing, and even masters would be disturbed, becoming restless and irritable, affecting their actions.

But this time she found that this was not the case!

Not only An Ye, but none of Xie Jin's other subordinates were disturbed by her piano playing.

How is this going?

Liu Ruochu didn't know that after experiencing her magic sound piercing his ears last time, Xie Jin asked his subordinates to make a batch of earplugs with special materials to be worn in the ears, which could weaken the attack of a large amount of piano sounds.

Unless Liu Ruochu was specifically targeting them, the interference of piano music alone would not have a significant effect.

Even so, Liu Ruochu was still very confident about his plan to get rid of Xie Jin this time.

As the leader of the funeral procession, Xie Jin brought a large number of soldiers with her. However, she reached an agreement with Emperor Xia Ming, and the large army was escorted by elite soldiers to bring the royal family back to the capital.

Her men have an absolute advantage, one hundred and fifty against Xie Jin's twenty guards. No matter how powerful Xie Jin is, the advantage in the number of killers can kill all his men!

While his men were risking their lives to hold Xie Jin back, Liu Ruochu went to the secret guards and dealt with them personally.

She wanted to kill all of Xie Jin's men first, and then gather the remaining strength to deal with him!

"Get out of the way!"

Jiang Qu saw through Liu Ruochu's purpose, and when she was about to kill a secret guard, he flew over and rescued her.

Just when Liu Ruchu attacked the two again, several hidden weapons suddenly shot towards her!

Liu Ruochu looked back and saw countless guards in tight clothes flying out from all directions and killing her people.

"Is there an ambush?"

Bohmer also saw it and was shocked.
