C484 First Prince's Teeth and Claws
Zhao Yiming's expression changed drastically and he quickly retracted his arm.
Even if Zhao Yiming reacted in time, the sword qi was indeed sharp and had cut Zhao Yiming's arm.
Having his arm cut, Zhao Yiming's expression was extremely ugly. He quickly retreated backwards, opening a distance of more than ten meters between him and the Fireheart Tree.
"You're really lucky, even that allowed you to escape calamity."
A disdainful sneer immediately rang out.
Quickly after, a figure appeared within their line of sight.
Following behind that figure were five Cultivating Warrior, all of whom were at Heavenly Martial Stage.
Wang Huan frowned as his heart trembled. Out of the six people in front of him, the one leading was actually at the fifth level of Heavenly Martial Stage. The other people also had Heavenly Martial Stage, so they were all extremely strong.
Was the sudden appearance of these six people an ambush or a coincidence?
Wang Huan's expression was extremely serious, he stared at the man in the lead and said in a deep voice, "We didn't know that you had already occupied this core tree. Please forgive my offense just now. "
After saying that, Wang Huan looked at Zhao Yiming and said, "Yi Ming, hurry up and apologize to them!"
Hearing Wang Huan's words, Zhao Yiming immediately felt uncomfortable. Just now, those guys had almost cut off his left arm, but now, he had to apologize to those guys.
Damn it!
Even though he was extremely unwilling, Zhao Yiming still went up and faced the person in the lead. He lowered his head and said, "I'm sorry, I was reckless just now."
"Kneel."
The person in the lead chuckled. A trace of contempt flashed in his eyes. It seemed that from the beginning to the end, he had never placed a person like Zhao Yiming in his eyes.
"Hmm?"
Hearing that, Zhao Yiming was surprised for a moment and said in a deep voice, "Don't push it too far."
Zhao Yiming was after all, Cultivating Warrior of Genuine Martial Stage, and although he was no match for the Heavenly Martial Stage in front of him, he was still a man with strong determination.
Previously in the canyon, Ye Hong had cut off Zhao Yiming's right arm in order to force him to reveal the whereabouts of Wu Qicai and the others, but Zhao Yiming had clenched his teeth and persisted. Even if he died, he had refused to tell Zhao Yiming where Wu Qicai and the others had gone to.
"Hur hur."
The leader chuckled. His eyes were cold as he stared at Zhao Yiming and said indifferently, "Remember my name. I am Yin Wuqing. This is probably the last name you will ever hear."
As soon as he finished speaking, Yin Wuqing immediately made his move. His eyes were full of anger. His five fingers curved into a claw shape as he grabbed towards Zhao Yiming's left chest.
Zhao Yiming's expression changed as he subconsciously dodged to the back. However, Yin Wuqing was Cultivator of Heavenly Martial Stage after all, and no matter how Zhao Yiming dodged, he could not escape.
With a "Zi la" sound, Zhao Yiming's clothes were instantly torn apart by Wu Tie.
The moment his clothes split open, with a "pu" sound, the left side of Zhao Yiming's chest was pierced by Yin Wuqing's five claws, leaving a terrifying bloody hole.
"Puchi …"
Zhao Yiming spat out blood.
The left side of his chest was pierced, and in that instant, his heart stopped beating.
Zhao Yiming's eyes widened as he stared at Yin Wuqing. He was unwilling to give up, but in the end, he fell to the ground and died.
Wang Huan and the others saw Zhao Yiming being killed with their own eyes, but there was nothing they could do. Wang Huan was very angry, but at this moment, he did not dare to let his anger rush to his head.
The six people in front of him were all Cultivator of Heavenly Martial Stage. If there was a conflict between them, they would be the ones to die and the other side would be completely unharmed.
Thinking of this, Wang Huan took a deep breath and tried his best to remain calm, not being influenced by his emotions.
Wang Huan's expression was extremely serious as he stared at Yin Wuqing and said, "This is what the First Prince asked you to do?"
"It's not the First Prince."
Yin Wuqing shook his head. There was a trace of white on his temples. He smiled and said: "The Crown Prince asked me to come."
It was not a secret that there was no crown prince in Lanqing Empire.
Emperor Lee was not very old. He was at his peak and there was no need for him to be the crown prince.
However, because they did not establish a crown prince, the other princes were vying for the crown prince's throne.
Among them, the First Prince, Third Prince, and Sixth Prince, these three princes, were seen as the most advantageous contestants for the position of Crown Prince. This was because these three princes, whether it was in terms of their talent in the arts or their cultivation in Martial Realm, were all very good. Especially the First Prince, who had stepped into the Heavenly Martial Stage and was extremely strong.
In this sort of situation, those people who had followed the First Prince all called him a crown prince in secret.
Yin Wuqing was at the fifth level of Heavenly Martial Stage and was a follower of the First Prince. Furthermore, the First Prince was hiding a sharp blade in the shadows.
Wang Huan was from the General's Family, so he had some understanding of the division of power within the Lanqing Empire Royal Family. Before his death, his father, Wang Po, had specifically warned him not to participate in the struggle for the throne. Because the principle of a dead dog was never changed.
Wang Huan had a deep understanding of the First Prince's power, and he had heard of Yin Wuqing before.
Normally, Yin Wuqing would secretly kill people that the First Prince couldn't kill.
Yin Wuqing was like a sharp blade hidden in the shadows of the First Prince, ready to kill at any time.
This time, Yin Wuqing appeared. He even appeared in front of Wang Huan and killed Zhao Yiming.
Wang Huan was well aware that Yin Wuqing represented the First Prince.
Since Yin Wuqing was going to kill someone, it meant that the First Prince was going to kill someone.
Kill who?
Wang Huan was shocked. He glared at Yin Wuqing coldly and said in a low voice, "No one knows if the First Prince will become the Crown Prince, but I'm very curious. Just who did the First Prince send you here to kill?"
"Su Ling!"
Yin Wuqing said without any hesitation and without hiding anything.
Looking at the six people in front of him, including Yin Wuqing, Wang Huan could not help but suck in a breath of cold air.
The First Prince really valued Su Ling. In order to kill Su Ling, he had not hesitated to send six of his subordinates, including Yin Wuqing, to personally lead a team.
Was the First Prince not afraid that Yin Wuqing would expose the fact that he killed Su Ling? The moment they were exposed, the First Prince would definitely attract the wrath of the Sword King Pavilion.
Wang Huan was shocked, but his expression did not change as he said: "Su Ling is already dead, and the explosion at the Hundred Thousand Mountain， is right in the center. It's impossible for him to leave here alive."
"Hmm?"
Hearing Wang Huan's words, Yin Wuqing couldn't help but frown. As Cultivator of Heavenly Martial Stage, he was very clear about how terrifying the energy produced by the previous explosion was.
That energy was truly too powerful. It was enough to destroy everything.
If Su Ling was there, he would definitely die.
"What is it? You don't believe me? "
Wang Huan stared at Yin Wuqing as he questioned him.
"I believe you!"
Yin Wuqing nodded and smiled, "However, the First Prince means that not only will Su Ling die, he also doesn't want too many people to know that Su Ling is dead."
