Junior sister took first place again

The night is as dark as ink, the stars are dim, and the moonlight tonight seems to be shrouded in a veil, hazy and mysterious.

Emperor Ning was wearing golden armor, carrying a sword and riding a horse, standing steadily on the steps in front of Penglai Pavilion. The reflection of the armor flashed coldly in the moonlight, like the brightest star in the night sky.

His eyes were firm and deep as he stared at the rebels surging like a tide in front of him.

Ning Hui, Ning Yi and several loyal generals also rode their horses and stood on his left and right. Their faces were filled with tragedy and determination, as if they were ready to sacrifice their lives for their country.

Ji Yuan, clad in jet-black armor and holding a spear, came rushing over like lightning. His figure looked particularly hideous in the firelight, like a demon walking out of hell.

He sat upright on his warhorse, laughing arrogantly. His voice resounded through the night sky, shaking everyone's heart. "Ning Yue, your era has ended. Tonight, I, Ji Yuan, will ascend the throne and become the new ruler of Ning Kingdom!"

Faced with Ji Yuan's nonsense, Emperor Ning remained indifferent. His voice was calm and firm: "Ji Yuan, you have betrayed the Ning Kingdom and the late emperor. Your crimes will be despised by the world. Even if I die in battle here today, your ambition will never succeed!"

With that, Emperor Ning swung his sword, the blade flashing like a meteor across the night sky, heading straight for Ji Yuan. A fierce look flashed in Ji Yuan's eyes, and he swung his spear to meet the attack. The spear tip made a sharp sound as it pierced the air and collided with the sword blade, making a crisp sound of weapons clashing.

The figures of the two men flashed rapidly under Penglai Pavilion. Every confrontation stirred up waves of air, and the surrounding soldiers retreated and dared not approach.

Ning Hui, Ning Yi and other soldiers also rushed forward. Like dying trapped beasts, they killed the rebels with their bravery and made them terrified.

Both sides tacitly left an open space in the middle, waiting for the two leaders to compete with each other.

However, how could an emperor who learned martial arts for the purpose of strengthening his body be a match for a general who had been on many battles?

In just twenty moves, the spear in Ji Yuan's hand pierced Emperor Ning's chest.

"His Majesty!!!"

Everyone exclaimed. Ning Hui and Ning Yi killed several generals in an instant. They wanted to fly over and catch the body of Emperor Ning, but were immediately stopped by several rebel generals.

Emperor Ning fell from his horse, his eyes filled with resentment and regret, his body gradually losing its temperature on the cold ground.

Ji Yuan stood before the corpse of Emperor Ning, holding high his blood-drenched spear, and said in a deep voice, "Ning Yue is dead, and I will inherit the throne! Anyone who dares to disobey will suffer the same fate as Ning Yue!"

At this moment, Xue Wuying rushed out from the darkness, covered in blood. He knelt heavily in front of Emperor Ning's corpse from a distance and said sadly, "Father, I am late in saving you. I deserve to die."

Ji Yuan saw the murderer clearly, grinned, and rushed towards Xue Wuying. Seeing that the blood-drenched spear was about to pierce his heart, Ji Yuan was killed by the inner demon that approached quietly.

Ji Yuan's wild laughter came to an abrupt end, and his body fell heavily in front of Xue Wuying who had stood up.

Both sides were shocked by this sudden change. The rebel general exclaimed, "General!" and then became furious, rushing towards Xue Wuying and Xinmo.

The inner demon smiled coldly, and his five fingers formed into claws to grasp the sword in Emperor Ning's hand. With an unstoppable momentum, he killed the generals and soldiers who rushed over one by one, scaring the rebels in the rear into losing their composure, and some of them couldn't help but retreat.

Even the royalists, upon witnessing this scene, could not help but pause in shock and grief as they felt a chill in their hearts.

The rebels were killed by their inner demons and gradually dispersed. Ning Hui and Ning Yi, regardless of their own serious injuries, led the remaining soldiers to continue chasing and killing the rebels, and the situation in front of Penglai Pavilion became slightly calmer.

Seizing this opportunity, the officials and counselors who had accompanied Xue Wuying all knelt and said, "The country cannot be without a ruler for a single day. We implore Your Highness to ascend the throne immediately and stabilize the Ning Kingdom!"

Xue Wuying knelt before Emperor Ning and bitterly refused. After three requests and three declines, he finally accepted the request with no choice.
