The Proof of the Heavens Begins with The Legend of the Condor Heroes

Chapter 173 Kyoto Rebellion
Just as Fang Hao was being besieged by two great masters and the temple messenger, Fan Xian and Ye Wan were also caught in a tough battle.

From the Northern Qi side, the person who came was Ku He's first disciple Lang Tao. He and Ye Wan were old rivals. As the saying goes, when enemies meet, they are particularly jealous of each other. The two of them fought each other immediately.

Fan Xian’s enemy is Si Gu Jian’s first disciple Yun Zhilan.

Although this senior disciple of Si Gu Jian was once seriously injured by Fang Hao, he recovered quickly.

Relying on his sophisticated swordsmanship, he firmly suppressed Fan Xian.

Facing a great swordsman like Yun Zhilan who is at the upper level of the ninth rank, Fan Xian would certainly be in a difficult situation if Wu Zhu did not take action.

"boom!"

A ball of poison plus three flying needles, Fan Xian flipped his palm and threw out another hidden weapon, interrupting Yun Zhilan's attack rhythm again.

"I want to see how many hidden weapons you have on you." Yun Zhilan said sinisterly.

"Then let's give it a try!" Fan Xian said.

He was just about to try to trick Yun Zhilan in order to end this troublesome tug-of-war.

At this moment, Wu Zhu, who had been hiding in the darkness and watching the battle silently, suddenly rushed out from the side.

With an iron rod, as fast as lightning, it went straight to Yun Zhilan's throat.

Swift and precise, even when moving at high speed, Wuzhu's attack is still so... perfect!
Facing Wuzhu's stab, Yun Zhilan's expression became extremely solemn.

With one breath, his true energy attached to the sword's edge. With a step, Yun Zhilan didn't have any intention of dodging at all. He rushed forward and attacked Wu Zhu in the face.

"boom!"

This was the sound of weapons colliding. Yun Zhilan blocked Wu Zhu's attack.

However, Wu Zhu's change of move came too quickly, and the iron rod cut sideways and hit Yun Zhilan's waist again.

"Bang bang bang!"

The two sides exchanged three moves, and Yun Zhilan finally ran out of breath. He was a human being, and as a human being he always had to breathe.

But Wuzhu's offensive momentum never changed.

The strength, speed, and even the angle of the attack have all been carefully calculated.

Therefore, in the fifth move of the fight between the two sides, Yun Zhilan was ultimately unable to dodge the attack.

"Stab!"

The iron rod accurately pierced through Yun Zhilan's chest and shattered his heart. This great swordsman who was ranked at the top of the ninth level died in Wu Zhu's hands.

"Uncle Wu Zhu, what's wrong with you?" Fan Xian looked at Wu Zhu in surprise.

He knew that Wu Zhu would not easily take action unless he was forced into a desperate situation.

Therefore, it was extremely abnormal for Wu Zhu to take action at this time and kill Yun Zhilan!
"Other messengers are coming." Wu Zhu said as he turned his gaze towards the top of Dadong Mountain.

That was also the place where several grand masters fought.

"What messenger?" Fan Xian had his own guess.

"The messenger from the temple." Wu Zhu said.

Fan Xian's face changed drastically. He certainly knew what the appearance of a temple messenger at the critical moment of the Battle of Dadong Mountain meant.

After all, his uncle Wu Zhu was once a temple messenger, a master equivalent to a martial arts grandmaster!

"Friend or enemy?" Fan Xian asked.

"It can only be...an enemy!" Wu Zhu replied.

Fan Xian immediately took out the black box containing the Barrett that his mother had left him, and called Wu Zhu, saying, "Uncle, let's hurry up the mountain."

"It's too late." Wu Zhu said, "By the time we get up there, everything will be over."

"It all depends on man!"

Fan Xian said, "Although Lao Er is a little arrogant, he is still good to us brothers. We can't let him die here."

In Fan Xian's eyes, although Fang Hao has various flaws, he is a sincere person. At least he is much better than Emperor Qing, who only knows how to exploit his son.

"Okay!" Wu Zhu and Fan Xian flew to the top of the Great East Mountain together. Even though he was not optimistic about Fang Hao, after all, he could not deal with three great masters at the same time by himself, which was something that even Emperor Qing could not do.

……

The Battle of Dadong Mountain officially began the moment Fang Hao reached the summit of Dadong Mountain.

However, things were not peaceful in Kyoto.

Somewhere in Kyoto, in a seemingly ordinary courtyard, assassins from the Sixth Department of the Overwatch Council, led by Shadow, are clearing out the remaining Junshan Society forces in the hands of the eldest princess.

"Is it cleaned up?" Chen Pingping asked.

"One hundred and eighty-seven assassins, none escaped." Shadow thought for a moment and said, "Any questions?"

"It's too easy." Chen Pingping said, "It's like they came to our doorstep to kill us."

"Shouldn't it be like this?" Shadow asked.

Inside and outside the Guangxin Palace where the Grand Princess lives, there are people from the Supervisory Council. Isn't it normal that everything goes smoothly?
"Is it supposed to be like this?" Chen Pingping smiled slightly, his eyes gradually becoming deeper.

"President!" At this time, an official from the Supervisory Council came over and said, "Xiao Jinhua, the deputy commander of the Jingdu Garrison Division, has rebelled and has led his men to occupy the Donghua Gate."

"Dean! The deputy commander of the Imperial Guards, Shi Fei, has rebelled. The rebels have temporarily occupied the Imperial Palace, and the commander of the Palace Guards is missing." Another spy from the Supervisory Council came to report.

"That's right." Chen Pingping said, "From the beginning to the end, our opponent has always been the emperor in Ganlu Palace."

Emperor Qing has held power for decades, and his cronies are spread throughout the court and the country.

If it weren't for the battle at Xingqing Palace, he really had not expected it at all, otherwise it would be hard to tell who would win.

Even so, Fang Hao did not choose to kill him out of consideration for family affection, but instead raised Emperor Qing in Ganlu Palace.

It’s okay for Fang Hao to stay in Kyoto, but once he leaves Kyoto, the situation will not be so optimistic.

"Dean, what should we do now?" Shadow asked.

"Order Jing Ge to lead the Black Cavalry and follow me into the palace." Chen Pingping said.

……

At this moment, in the Qing Kingdom Palace, the shouts of killing were deafening.

The commander of the imperial guards, Gong Dian, had his robe stained with blood and his lips were pale, which were signs of excessive blood loss.

However, he still personally supervised the battle near the Imperial Study, and repelled the attacks of the rebellious imperial guards led by Shi Fei several times.

It was because Empress Dowager Shu and Queen Ye Ling'er were both in the imperial study behind him.

"Ling'er, are you afraid?" In the imperial study, Empress Dowager Shu said so as she focused on the battle situation outside the palace.

"Ling'er is not afraid!" Ye Ling'er was born into a family of generals and was no stranger to military fighting.

In fact, before Fang Hao left, he had foreseen what would happen today, but he did not expect that Emperor Qing would act so quickly.

Now, I just hope Chen Pingping can bring his troops here to protect me as soon as possible.

In the Ganlu Palace deep in the imperial palace, Emperor Qing had white hair and an old face, and his eyes were like deep pools, making it impossible to tell what he was thinking.

Behind him stood a burly ascetic monk with long hair and beard.

With just a wave of his hand and a move of his foot, this man smashed a huge bronze tripod in front of the Ganlu Palace and killed several assassins left behind by the Overwatch Council.

"Sanshi, thank you for your hard work." Emperor Qing said lightly.

"It is my honor to serve Your Majesty." This muscular monk is the second priest of Qing Temple, Master Sanshi.

According to legend, this man was born with supernatural powers, and he had cultivated both his internal and external skills to the extreme. He was one of the few ninth-grade masters hidden in the Qing Kingdom.

"Your Majesty? I am no longer Your Majesty." Emperor Qing said with a self-deprecating tone.

"The young boy is just a monkey in human clothing. Your Majesty is the supreme ruler of Qing Kingdom in Sanshi's heart." said Master Sanshi.

Emperor Qing was about to speak when he saw a figure floating down like a cloud and landing in front of the two of them. It was Ye Liuyun!
