The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 1792

Chapter 1792: 878 Domineering Protection of the Child! (2nd update)

That person was a skilled warrior from Jin Country, yet he was kicked away, completely unable to fight back.

In an instant, two skilled warriors fell.

Gongsun Yu’s face was cold and stern. He was also handsome and, like Xuanyuan Sheng in his youth, had been teased for looking like a girl.

As they grew up, both became renowned battlefield warriors.

The difference was that Xuanyuan Sheng nurtured light in his heart, while Gongsun Yu’s had long turned dark.

Gongsun Yu coldly observed the two people who suddenly appeared, one being a young man of seventeen or eighteen in dark clothing, with a sword at his waist, and a cold appearance. It was he who had just severed the guard’s hand.

He struck incredibly fast, managing to succeed right under Gongsun Yu’s nose.

The other wore armor from Dayan, wielding a long knife that gleamed ominously.

The knife was stabbed into the ground, his hands lightly resting on the hilt.

The tunnel seemed slightly too low for him; he tilted his head slightly, appearing cold and stern, yet his gaze was extremely arrogant!

For a moment, the well-connected tunnel couldn’t contain his aura, and even Gongsun Yu felt a terrible pressure.

Gongsun Yu squinted, unable to recall which leader from Yan Country he was.

Xuanping Hou said with commanding presence, "Chang Jing, take them away."

"Okay." Chang Jing held the nearly unconscious Shangguan Qing and turned to leave.

Elder Lu suddenly exclaimed, "Chang Jing? Chang Jing from the Hidden Night Sect?"

Gongsun Yu furrowed his brows subtly, puzzled as he glanced at him.

Elder Lu realized with a start, looking at Chang Jing, "I was wondering why your sword and moves looked so familiar, you... you truly are the young master of the Hidden Night Sect?"

It was not surprising that Gongsun Yu didn’t recognize the Hidden Night Sect’s moves, as it was a Jianghu Sect, unrelated to the court, though Jianlu and the Hidden Night Sect had some interactions in the Jianghu.

Elder Lu had personally visited the Hidden Night Sect and met with Chang Kun, the sect leader, and his son, young Chang Jing.

Chang Jing was under ten years old then, small and utterly different from the young man standing firm now.

But he recognized that treasure sword from the Hidden Night Sect.

Chang Jing said to Elder Lu, "Stop talking nonsense."

Xuanping Hou turned to Chang Jing, "Young master of the Hidden Night Sect?"

Chang Jing remained unfazed, "He’s talking nonsense."

Xuanping Hou said, "Let’s go, we’ll discuss these things later."

Chang Jing bolted away!

Gongsun Yu said coldly, "Trying to leave? Not that easy! Stop them!"

The remaining five or six guards rushed together.

Xuanping Hou blocked the entrance to the fourth tunnel, watching them charge over fiercely without even lifting an eyelid.

These were not ordinary guards; they were famed warriors in Jin Country, or they would not have the chance to accompany Gongsun Yu.

They did not recognize the Yan Country leader before them, meaning this person was a nobody.

Just a show-off who only knows sneak attacks, not a real match for them in direct confrontation!

The first guard rushed over and unveiled his sword move, "Look out for the sword!"

Xuanping Hou gripped the hilt in reverse, lifted it from the ground, turned it in his palm, and slashed down!

The man was still flying.

His head had already moved homes.

Xuanping Hou did not have a fondness for killing nor bloodthirsty methods, but there is no mercy on the battlefield; killing is both a mission and redemption.

Leaving even one move for the enemy means giving them a chance to kill you.

Moreover, intimidation is crucial!

As expected, this move caused the remaining ones to pause collectively, hesitating momentarily.

It’s the chance now!

Xuanping Hou wielded his knife again, each one cut down without mercy, leaving no room for Gongsun Yu’s lackeys to resist.

Eventually, he would have to face off with Gongsun Yu; by then, he might not be able to care about these minor hindrances, so better to deal with them now than let them chase after his son and Chang Jing!

"Your turn." He swung his long knife, arrogantly pointing at Elder Lu.

Gongsun Yu said with a dangerous look, "I’ll deal with him; you chase the eldest grandson of Dayan’s emperor."

Elder Lu nodded.

He picked up the gun on the ground.

The power of this thing was too great; it must not fall into this man’s hands!

Gongsun Yu began to engage with Xuanping Hou.

Gongsun Yu was a formidable opponent, possessing absolute martial talent; his skills rivaled those of Xuanyuan Sheng in his prime.

Over the years, he continuously enhanced his skills in extreme battles and could now say he has few rivals throughout the six countries.

He could wield any weapon, though today he carried a sword with him.

He drew his sword, discarded the scabbard, and attacked Xuanping Hou fiercely!

Their location at the fork was larger than inside the tunnel but still difficult to maneuver, especially with Xuanping Hou’s long knife, which was greatly restricted by the space.

In the first move, they drew even.

Elder Lu seized the opportunity to dart into the fourth tunnel, chasing after the direction in which Chang Jing left.

Xuanping Hou slashed, blocked by Gongsun Yu’s sword.

"Your opponent is me," Gongsun Yu said.

Xuanping Hou was truly angry, he coldly smirked, saying to Gongsun Yu, "Gongsun Yu, do you really think this Marquis can’t beat you?"
