Chapter 226: Exposed, Fierce Battle in the Imperial Residence (1)
Mountain Suppression King’s Mansion, Night.
Duan Pingyang looked at the full moon hanging high in the sky through the window and then walked out of the room worriedly.
Usually, after the goods were delivered, these caravans could leave on their own.
But this time, the people of the Imperial Residence had asked them to stay. It was said that they had something to say.
If they wanted to talk about it, then so be it. They even had to talk about it in the middle of the night.
Duan Pingyang had a bad feeling when she thought of the bloody goods.
It was very likely that there were demons in the Imperial Residence!
Duan Pingyang wanted nothing more than to take her sister and her subordinates and escape.
However, he had to give Mountain Suppressing King face!
“Sigh ~”
Duan Pingyang sighed helplessly. After closing the door, she prepared to go to the meeting hall.
At this moment, the door to the side opened and Duan Xiaodie walked out.
” Second Brother, I’ll go with you!”
There was a hint of worry in the depths of the young girl’s eyes, but her expression was very firm.
“Little sister, don’t mess around! Stay here and wait for my message from the United States.”
Duan Pingyang was stunned for a moment before she immediately refused.
However, Duan Xiaodie walked up to him and said seriously,”
“Second Brother, if something happens to you, can we still run away? Let me go with you. If anything happens, I can help you.”
“Count me in. After freeloading in your Duan family for so many years, it’s time for you to do something.”
The door opposite Duan Pingyang opened as Priest Zhang walked out.
“All of you…Alright then.”
Duan Pingyang’s eyes flickered, and she didn’t refuse.
….
In the end, Duan Pingyang brought Duan Xiaodie, Priest Zhang, and the captain of the guards of the caravan to the meeting hall.
By the time they arrived, the meeting hall was already filled with people. They were all the leaders of the various merchant caravans.
Duan Pingyang was surprised to see a middle-aged man with a cold and dignified aura sitting above her.
It was actually the Mountain Suppressing King who had appeared personally!
“Everyone, I’ve called you here this time because I have a small matter that I need your help with.”
When everyone was present, a butler beside the Mountain Suppressing King started to talk.
It turned out that Lord Mountain Suppressing wanted to use these merchant associations to transport some military supplies.
At the same time, he also wanted to use their connections to contact some of the local rebels and see if he could recruit them.
Duan Pingyang had been paying attention to King Zhenshan during the conversation.
Halfway through his sentence, Duan Pingyang suddenly noticed that the expressionless Lord of Mountain Suppression suddenly frowned and looked at a certain spot in the manor.
Although Lord Mountain Suppressing quickly withdrew his gaze, he had a feeling that something was about to happen!
This made Duan Pingyang restless and she looked away from time to time.
Suddenly, he saw a familiar figure appear on the roof opposite the meeting hall.
Under the cold moonlight, that person’s face looked very cold and could not be seen clearly.
However, Duan Pingyang would never forget that face.
This was because this person had just swallowed thirty carts of spirit herbs from their caravan not long ago, allowing them to see what a true expert was!
“It’s actually him! What does he want?”
The moment he saw Su Mu, Duan Pingyang was shocked, and the bad feeling in his heart grew even stronger.
His premonition was right.
In the next second, Su Mu let out a cold laugh. Then, something unexpected happened!
..
“Boom!”
A head full of eyeballs fell from above, smashing through the roof and landing in front of Mountain Suppressing King.
The eyeballs on it shot out streams of black gas and swallowed Lord Mountain Suppression!
At the same time, seven or eight demons jumped out of the hole they had created and charged at Lord Mountain Suppression!
In the blink of an eye, the group of demons attacked and killed the Mountain Suppressing King!
“Protect His Highness!”
This sudden change shocked the guards in the meeting hall.
At the same time, the alarm bells rang throughout the Imperial Residence, and many guards rushed over from all directions to provide support.
The merchant group representatives in the conference hall were so frightened that they quickly fled outside, not daring to look back.
This was an assassination aimed at King Zhenshan. How could they stop it?
If he didn’t escape, he might not even be able to save his life!
Duan Pingyang, Duan Xiaodie, and a few others also blended into the crowd and fled outside.
Amidst the chaos, Duan Pingyang looked in the direction of Su Mu. His expression was indifferent as he walked toward the Lord of Mountain Suppression.
That aura was shocking!
“Who exactly is he?”
Duan Pingyang was shocked.
He knew that Su Mu had an extraordinary background, but he didn’t expect that Su Mu would actually come to the Prince’s mansion to assassinate Mountain Guardian King!
This was too ridiculous.
In his opinion, it was a fantasy!
But tonight, not only Duan Pingyang, but also the other caravan members were just insignificant supporting roles.
Su Mu and the so-called Mountain Suppressing King were the key.
..
The seven or eight demons that had attacked King Mountain-guarding were all his subordinates.
However, the relationship between the ‘Mountain Suppressing King’ and the demons seemed to be that of superior and subordinate.
Su Mu’s relationship with these demons was that of master and servant.
Even though they were afraid of the ” King of the Mountain “, these demons could only attack him with all their might.
Especially the ghost with eight musical instruments. The demonic sound was like a real thing as it charged towards King Mountain Guardian!
All the tables and chairs in the surroundings were shattered into dust.
Su Mu used the ghost domain to transport these demons to the top of the meeting hall, which was completely unnoticed by the “Mountain Guardian King”.
Now that it was attacked fiercely, it was unable to resist for a moment. Its body collapsed layer by layer, and blood and rotten flesh splattered everywhere!
“You didn’t expect us to meet again so soon, did you?”
Su Mu looked at the Mountain Suppressing King, whose body had collapsed and his appearance was too horrible to look at, and revealed a cold smile.
