Splendid Twins

Gou Huan held a dagger in his hand with a provocative look on his face. The black bear was already in a rage protecting its food, and was completely enraged by this provocation. It waved its big paws wildly and slapped down fiercely. Si Yao next to him had already prepared talismans and was ready to take action.

Seeing the big palm about to fall, Gou Huan instantly gathered all his strength, exerted force with his legs, and leaped up like a flash of lightning. The sharp blade in his hand flashed with cold light, and with a resolute momentum, he went straight for the black bear's vital point.

His figure drew a perfect arc in the air, and at the same time, he threw a black and red talisman paper towards the black bear's neck. Then, the sharp blade collided with the black bear's body, making a crisp sound of metal collision.

The black bear let out an earth-shaking roar, its shoulders seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, and it seemed as if something was gnawing at its flesh and blood. However, its anger and struggle seemed pale and powerless in front of Gou Huan's firm eyes and fierce attack.

Gou Huan turned in the air and, using the force of falling, stabbed the blade deeply into the black bear's chest. The black bear's huge body trembled violently under this blow, and finally fell to the ground weakly.

"boom!"

A cloud of dust rose in front of Si Yao's eyes. Not far away, Gou Huan's face was full of pride:

"How is it? Am I good at this?"

Si Yao spoke meaningfully:

"If there is no object holding its vital point, how can you rely on your dagger?"

Gou Huan knew that he couldn't hide it from Si Yao, so he didn't deny it:

"No matter what means are used, as long as the goal is achieved and the result is what you want, that's fine."

Si Yao looked at the talisman paper that was about to dissipate into powder not far away and said calmly:

"as long as you are happy."

The smell of blood filled the air. We couldn't stay here any longer because other wild animals would soon come looking for food.

Gou Huan looked down at the blood splattered on his body, disgust flashed in his eyes, as if he could no longer bear it, he tore the cloth with his bare hands and cut it off with a dagger. Seeing this, Si Yao looked away calmly.

He walked up to the black bear, which died with its eyes open, cut off its four paws with a bayonet, and deliberately used a golden talisman in front of Gou Huan, making the four paws disappear on the spot.

"This, this... Si Yao, what kind of magic is this?"

Gou Huan was stunned, with a look of surprise on his face, as if he couldn't believe it, and asked again:

"I would like to hear from you, my great teacher. Who is he?"

Si Yao turned her head and looked at him with cold eyes:

"Compared to your ability to control spirits, this little teleportation technique is nothing."

Gou Huan was mercilessly pointed out by Si Yao, and turned around and smiled:

"I'm just curious. After all, I've never seen it before."

"hehe."

Si Yao turned her head and looked at the bear's belly. She also wanted a bear's gallbladder...

"Auntie, let's go. It will be too late if we don't leave now."

Gou Huan couldn't help but urge her. How come he didn't realize that this girl wanted everything?

Si Yao also knew that the timing was not right, so he stood up, shook off the blood on the bayonet, looked at the lush forest in front of him and said:

"alright."

The two of them packed up and quickly left the scene. As the night slowly rose, the beasts that had come here smelling blood encountered a feast. The huge corpse of the black bear was gradually eaten up...

At the same time, in Liang State, in the imperial palace shrouded in darkness, a fight was going on, like a bloody purgatory.

The palace gates were tightly closed, but could not cover up the screams and sounds of fighting inside. Between the red walls and green tiles, a palace coup was going on.

Swords flashed, knives shadowed, and every scream was accompanied by the change of power and the disappearance of life.

In the palace, the struggle for power turned into a bloody storm. Emperor Xiao Junyi was furious in the hall:

"Useless! Where are the Royal Guards?"

The eunuch who wrote the poem knelt down in fear:

"Your Majesty, the Flying Eagle Army is outnumbered by ten. I'm afraid the Royal Guards will..."

"Where is the Queen Mother?"

"The Muchi Palace was surrounded by the Flying Eagle Army. Once my men approached, they were all killed..."

Xiao Junyi closed his eyes in despair, knowing that he had lost. He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice:

"Dragon Guard!"

After the words fell, a sharp male voice came from somewhere in the hall:

"We swear to protect the royal honor until our death!"

Xiao Junyi was like a taut bow that relaxed a little. Before he could prepare, the door of the hall was pushed open from the outside. A group of guards holding sharp blades rushed in and quickly controlled everyone in the hall.

Lu Yuan walked in slowly with a sword in his hand. He had a cold and handsome face and a terrifying aura. Wherever his eyes went, an invisible sense of oppression enveloped him like a heavy dark cloud.

Xiao Junyi, who was in a high position, stood up suddenly from his seat, pointed his finger at the other party, his eyes blazing with anger, and shouted angrily:

"Bold King Jin, do you want to be a traitor?"

Lu Yuan ignored Xiao Junyi's anger, looked up at the dragon throne above, and smiled contemptuously:

"How can you call me a traitor? I can't even call me a thief. Your Majesty, have you forgotten that you and I are from the same clan and have the same father and mother?"

A trace of guilt flashed across Xiao Junyi's eyes, and he immediately emphasized:

"I am the emperor and you are the prince, please don't get me wrong!"

Lu Yuan's eyes suddenly became as sharp as an eagle's, and he opened his thin lips slightly:

"Really? Then the prince's position is returned to you."

"Return?...How can I return?"

Xiao Junyi's expression was unclear. The next moment, he watched helplessly as the eunuch who was writing the book was stabbed in the throat by a sword!

"How dare you! Xiao Yuan, how dare you do this!"

"I will burn every bit of evidence of your conspiracy with the Queen Mother to the late Emperor, so that his family can see how the prince who was entrusted with an important task and the Queen Mother, who was the mother of the country, personally destroyed the dragon vein of the country!"

Lu Yuan was filled with anger. It was bad enough that his luck was replaced. A few days ago, Master Chan Liao specially found him and went to Longshou Mountain, which was the tomb of emperors of the Liang Kingdom. The dragon vein was majestic, and the Xiao royal family was able to continue.

But Xiao Junyi was striving for immortality and actually cut off the dragon vein and built himself a temple for immortality. The regret in Master Chan Liao's words made him feel ashamed.

If Xiao Junyi was a virtuous king, he would have no complaints even if he died on the battlefield. Unfortunately, he was not, and he could not see the living beings under the dragon throne.

The state affairs were in neglect and he did not care about the suffering of the people. Dai Viet and Western Rong were at war. No matter which side won, the next target would be Liang. The people were living in poverty and had nowhere to appeal. Not only did he not achieve anything, but he wielded his butcher knife towards the powerless child, hoping to live as long as the sky!

"Stop your nonsense! Get out now. I won't pursue your crime of disrespect. If you persist and make a big mistake, even I can't protect you!"

Xiao Junyi was completely panicked. How could he know those secrets?

There was a ruthlessness flashing in his eyes. He had said at the beginning that the fake would be exposed, but his mother insisted on keeping it, saying that it was better to be prepared.

"You should think about how you are going to explain this to the whole court, how you are going to give an answer to the people, and how you are going to face your ancestors!"

Every word Lu Yuan spoke was as sharp as a sword, stabbing Xiao Junyi fiercely.

"Where's the evidence? You keep slandering me for being unvirtuous. Show me the evidence so that I can be convinced!"

Xiao Junyi turned around and drew out the Emperor's Sword from behind the dragon throne. The sword body shone with dazzling light, as if it contained endless imperial power and majesty!
