Forgotten Legend Of The Bloodied Flower

Chapter 56 - Do you really you can escape death with your status?

Long Qian Xing was speechless at Nan Luo's attempt to open the door. Just how much power did this brat use to make this supposedly tough door destroyed?

"I didn't use that much power!" Nan Luo protested. Just how much power did he expect a 9 years old brat could possibly muster, ah? He was only using his sword to kick that soldier who guarded this door.

Who would expect the door would be flung open just like that.

"There'll be a need to reconstruct the palace again." Emperor Yang Zhou stepped forward. He looked into the main hall where he could see Prince Yang Lu, Empress Dowager Hai, and several ministers stood there. His expression remained indifferent yet there was another layer of coldness formed on his face.

"It has been some time, Imperial Brother. Do you understand what you're doing?" Emperor Yang Zhou felt annoyed whenever he thought of how stupid this second prince was.

"You! How did you survive…? That can't be…" Prince Yang Lu pointed his fingers at Emperor Yang Zhou.

"Yang Lu!" Empress Dowager Hai warned her son.

Emperor Yang Zhou was calm and indifferent. He looked at the group in front of him. "It seems that Empress Dowager Hai didn't think that it's a good idea to stay quiet. Would you like to accompany Imperial Father in the afterlife?"

"You dare?!"

"Qian Xing."

Long Qian Xing pulled a corpse from behind and threw it to the front. He was still smiling gently like that of a gentleman yet anyone who saw him would be terrified when they saw it. The body that was thrown was that of First Commander Hai, which was one of the backbone from Hai Family.

Empress Dowager Hai's face turned pale. "Brother!"

The first commander in Hai Family was Empress Dowager Hai's brother. He was also the one who had the highest position. With him around, Hai Family was thriving and didn't seem to lose against many other powerful families in the Capital City.

With him dead, how would Hai Family survive?

"It seems you do recognize him. Do you know the punishment for assassinating the Emperor?" Emperor Yang Zhou's tone was extremely cold.

"Run!" Minister Hai rushed over to the left side's passage along with the other ministers. They were all trying to use this chance to get away with their lives. If they stayed any longer in this place with those powerful fighters, they would only be seeking their own death.

Bam! Bam! Bam!

Knocking onto the door, they found the door was so hard to open. It was as if there was something that perfectly blocked them from entering the left secret path.

Emperor Yang Zhou looked around. "The decorations in the palace need some refurbishing too. Deal with them."

"Leave it to me!" Nan Luo hopped up and down before dashing forward. Despite his small stature, his speed was not any lacking at all compared to many other soldiers. Prince Yang Lu and Empress Dowager Hai were terrified as they could only watch the ministers were killed.

"Leave now!" Empress Dowager Hai pushed her son to the front as she looked at the Emperor and the other soldiers around them. The stench of blood made her dizzy, but she steeled her heart as she understood that she might not be able to get away from this matter unscathed.

The punishment for trying to assassinate an Emperor was their lives and their family members. Even if she could let Prince Yang Lu stayed alive, would it be possible for him to escape the punishment for Hai Family?

"Ugh!"

Seeing Long Qian Xing's gaze, Prince Yang Lu rushed out from the front door. He didn't dare to stay there any longer in fear that he would truly lose his life.

Empress Dowager Hai bowed towards Emperor Yang Zhou. "Your Majesty, this lowly one made a mistake. Would you please be merciful and forgive this one?"

Bang!

Slamming her own head to the ground as she kowtowed, Empress Dowager Hai was trying to beg her way out. The plan was already screwed with her brother's death. Not to mention, the Emperor surely wouldn't let them live.

Normally, it would be that way.

"What makes you think that I would spare your lives?" Emperor Yang Zhou looked at the front where several officials had fallen under Nan Luo's sword. The sight of a small boy went around killing people did seem strange.

Bang!

As the door was finally opened, the ministers were greeted by the sight of corpses in front of them. The awful stench of blood and the fresh blood that poured on their feet petrified them in their steps.

"Ah, Adjutant!" Minister Hai screamed in terror.

Empress Dowager Hai's heart dropped as she turned around. Upon seeing the pile of corpses that was placed on the left side, she knew that all hope was lost. The military power of her brother was completely lost.

"Luo, just target Minister Hai."

"Oh."

Nan Luo noticed that Minister Hai was at the front. He grabbed the clothes of the closest minister to him and pushed himself up. Kicking up, he then ran on top of the ministers' head before reaching Minister Hai.

Before Minister Hai could try to push the corpses away, he had reached them and swung his sword.

Slash!

Minister Hai stopped moving. His eyes widened in disbelief and terror before his body started to fall to the side. The detached head dropped to the ground and rolled around before stopping with his expression could be seen clearly by others.

Thud!

"Hiii!"

"Gah! Help….!"

"uwaaa."

"Do you want to kill them all?" Long Qian Xing didn't like seeing those bootlickers' officials who were running around. He was itching to kill them all. With his current skills, it shouldn't take a long time for him to deal with them.

"No need, I still need them. As long as Minister Hai died, it's enough." Emperor Yang Zhou glanced at Empress Dowager Hai. "Do you have any other word in defense, Empress Dowager Hai?"

"You can't kill me! I'm Prince Yang Lu's mother and… and… I…"

"Do you really think that you can escape death with your status?"
