His loud shout attracted everyone's attention, and the emperor looked at him in surprise.
Seeing that they were exposed, the dozen dancers stopped hiding and immediately transformed into their true bodies and rushed toward the emperor on the dragon throne.
Today the emperor is having a banquet with all the ministers. It is New Year's Eve. Elder Qu and other experts are not here. Instead, they are gathering and drinking in the side palace of the palace. The emperor lacks expert guards around him.
At this critical moment, Chai Yuan immediately drew a rune and hit the leading fox.
The rune flew in front of the fox. The fox continued unabated, stretched out its sharp claws, and struck the rune with one claw. The rune shattered, but fortunately, the fox was also pushed back by the force of the counterattack.
There was chaos in the hall, and all the ministers were panicking and desperately retreated to both sides. The emperor was supported by Eunuch Cao beside him and ran towards the side door at the back.
The leader of the fox was beaten back, but the other foxes were still there. Those foxes fought desperately towards the old emperor one by one, and surrounded him from all directions with their teeth and claws bared.
"Protect Your Majesty!"
Outside the door, the guards rushed over, took out the sabers from their waists and killed the foxes.
But at this time, the fox was closer to the emperor. The emperor was old and weak, and could not run fast even if he was supported by others. He was soon surrounded by the foxes.
Chai Yuan shouted loudly, picked up the Tianyuan pen and rushed forward. At this time, he didn't care that he was not good at close combat, so he had to bite the bullet.
Although there are generals in the hall, most of them are hereditary nobles. Their pampered life has long made them forget how to fight. They are all showmen and they can run faster than civil servants at this time.
It was Chai Yuan, a scholar, who took the lead at the critical moment.
Chai Yuan wanted to rescue the emperor, but the fox he blocked first rushed towards him, stretched out his sharp claws and dug into his heart. Chai Yuan swept it out with one stroke, and the two collided. , the other party didn't move at all, but Chai Yuan even took several steps back.
"Be careful! This is a third-grade monster!"
Chai Yuan shouted.
He was blocked and fought fiercely with the third-grade fox, while the other foxes rushed towards the old emperor one by one.
After Wang Fugui thought for a moment, he immediately decided that this matter could be done!
There is a weapon on his waist. It is the soft sword Han Yun gave him on his belt, but it cannot be used. After all, what does it mean when you see the emperor wearing a sword?
He picked up the square table in front of him and threw it at the fox that was besieging the emperor.
But no matter how fast he is, how can he be faster than those assassins carefully selected by the demon clan?
The foxes rushed in front of the old emperor, their claws already reaching into the old emperor's heart.
At this moment, Eunuch Cao, who had been supporting the emperor, flicked the fly whisk in his hand and flew a fox away.
That fox was at least in the fourth level, but in Eunuch Cao's hands, he couldn't even make a move, and he vomited blood and flew backwards.
This Eunuch Cao is so good at martial arts. I had never seen him practice martial arts before.
Wang Fugui secretly praised, with quick eyes and quick hands, he picked up the square table in his hand and patted it, directly patting the fox that was whipped away by Eunuch Cao to the ground. Then he raised his foot, exerted all his strength, stepped on it several times crazily, and directly knocked the fox to the ground. The fox's head was crushed.
When the foxes saw that one of their companions had died, they screamed with grief and anger, and immediately divided into two groups to attack Wang Fugui.
When the emperor saw this scene, he was shocked and immediately shouted,
"Hao'er, run!"
Wang Fugui ignored him, frowned, dropped the broken table in his hand, raised his fist, and punched a fox rushing in front.
With a bang, the fox dodged Wang Fugui's fist and grabbed Wang Fugui's chest with one claw, sending Wang Fugui flying backwards.
After hitting the pillar hard, Wang Fugui almost vomited blood. He lowered his head and looked at his chest. The python robe had been broken, revealing the silver silk armor inside, which Han Yun picked up and gave to him in the Land of Demonic Fall.
Another fox came to kill, but Wang Fugui did not dare to fight hard anymore. He turned over to avoid the attack and came to the crowd of guards.
Some of the guards rushed over to protect the emperor, while others stayed to protect Wang Fugui while attacking the two foxes.
The guards in front of him went to resist, while Wang Fugui hid behind. However, the guards' fighting power was not very strong. They could deal with ordinary assassins, but they were dwarfed by such a small, flexible and powerful fox.
In front of him, the guards fell down one by one. Wang Fugui bent down and picked up the long knife of one of the guards, and then slashed at the fox with the knife.
Not all foxes are third- and fourth-grade monsters. The two that besieged Wang Fugui were only fifth-grade at most, and they were just relying on the monsters' powerful physiques to show off their ferocity.
After Wang Fugui had been cleansed and cut down by Han Yun's elixir, he was no longer strong on the outside but weak on the inside. He was a real fifth-grade strong man.
At this moment, the knife struck out and directly knocked the first fox away.
However, at this time, another fox also killed in front of Wang Fugui. Wang Fugui had no time to put away his knife and could only raise his left hand to resist.
The fox grabbed his left arm, opened his mouth and bit it.
"ah!!!"
Wang Fugui screamed like a slaughtering pig, and then slashed the fox's body with a knife, killing it.
After kicking the fox away, Wang Fugui immediately led his guards to rescue His Majesty.
He knew very well who he should behave in front of at this time.
There was a chaos in the main hall. The princes and ministers had already shrunk to the corner, and many people had already ran out, shouting for help.
The middle of the hall became a battlefield. The foxes were very powerful in fighting, and many guards were killed by the foxes' sharp claws.
What is strange is that until now, none of the masters in the palace have appeared.
Wang Fugui rushed to the emperor's side with a knife. When Eunuch Cao saw this, he immediately shouted,
"Your Highness, please stop!"
This is a very dangerous move. When the prince comes in front of the emperor with a knife, anyone will become suspicious. Eunuch Cao protects the emperor, so he naturally wants to stop him.
"Fart, I want to protect my father!"
The wound on Wang Fugui's arm was bleeding, and there was blood on his face. Without looking at Eunuch Cao, he waved the knife in his hand and knocked away the foxes one after another.
Seeing that he meant no harm, Eunuch Cao also stood side by side with him, protecting the emperor in the corner and resisting the fox's attack with all his strength.
The guards were useless and died one by one, but Eunuch Cao was strong and killed several foxes in a short time.
When the third-level fox who was fighting Chai Yuan saw this, he gritted his teeth secretly, knowing that with Eunuch Cao here, he would not be able to kill the emperor today, and other masters from the palace would be here soon.
It opened its mouth and spit out a stream of miasma towards Chai Yuan. Then it flashed, crashed through the roof and flew away.
Chai Yuan immediately rushed through the miasma, looked at the table in front of the emperor's throne, and found that the imperial seal was missing.
Chai Yuan rushed to the roof without hesitation and passed down the jade seal to suppress the fate of a country. No matter what, there was no room for failure!
On the rafters, in the shadows in the corner, a man in black looked up at the fox rushing out from the roof, and then looked down at the emperor who was being assassinated.
He watched closely with cold eyes, and once the emperor's life was really in danger, he would take action to solve the crisis.
His name is Shadow, the Emperor's Shadow.
Some people died, but not completely...
