The First National Preceptor of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 968

Who else could it be but the General Who Guards the Nation, the one who keeps galloping ahead?

Xu Tian took the opportunity to leap up from the bushes.

With a flick of his longsword, it was all over in an instant.

A sharp arrow, carrying a strong killing intent, came flying in.

It was close to becoming the General Who Protects the Nation.

Bang!

With a crisp sound, Xu Tian raised his sword and brought it down.

The incoming arrow was instantly cut in two.

The General of the Nation had already sensed the approaching arrow, but he hadn't heard it. It was within arm's reach of him.

He turned around suspiciously, only to find that Xu Tian had already landed on the ground.

He held a long sword in his hand, exuding elegance.

They faced the cavalry head-on.

Knowing that the horses were almost upon him, Xu Tian instantly stretched out a foot, followed by a sweeping sword strike.

With just a blink of an eye, he had already killed five horses.

The person on Mar's back pounced in an instant.

In the blink of an eye, Xu Tian soared into the air.

He swept out his longsword in an instant.

The men in black quickly came up, but after all the dozen or so horses in front were destroyed, the men behind dared not come up anymore. They stood still and reined in their horses.

He looked at Xu Tian with a wary expression.

They never expected that this pursuit would lead them to encounter such a master.

It seems this person is actually in cahoots with that general.

When the General of the State found Xu Tian behind him, he turned around immediately.

He dismounted and stood beside Xu Tian.

"Your Highness!"

Without asking any questions, the two men raised their swords and charged forward together in an instant.

The two men had wiped out all the men in black.

"General, how did you get here?" This question was asked after all the men in black had been killed.

Xu Tian turned around and asked the General Zhenguo.

Just then, Li Zhi walked over from the other side.

"I came out to find you. I was ordered by His Majesty to recall you two, but I did not expect to be assassinated on the way."

"I can't figure out who sent these people. They've been chasing me all the way here. They've chased me for miles."

"If it weren't for meeting you all, I don't know what would have happened along the way."

Even the General Zhenguo himself couldn't have imagined it.

He was exhausted from being chased all the way.

I was completely exhausted.

He almost fainted even when he dismounted.

He told Xu Tian and the others everything.

Upon hearing about what was happening inside the capital, Xu Tian frowned instantly.

"I never expected this person to be so audacious?"

Li Zhi was filled with indignation, his anger barely contained.

He just wanted to return to the palace immediately, find the murderer, and tear that traitor to pieces.

"Have you found the murderer?" Xu Tian asked.

The general shook his head.

"We haven't found anything yet. Even if we capture these assassins, they've already committed suicide, so we can't get any clues out of them."

The group discussed that they should not alert anyone so that they could return to Chang'an safely.

"How many people can you mobilize at once within the imperial city?"

Xu Tian believed that if that person was already preparing to rebel, they had to prepare for the worst.

Assembling troops is essential.
