Chapter 344: Ending Like This (3)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Prince Cheng : “…”
“Then… then I’ll shoot.” Prince Cheng drew his bow in embarrassment.
The Eldest Prince glared at him coldly. See if you dare to hit one!!!
Prince Cheng : “…”
… .
“Who hasn’t caught something yet?” The Emperor dismounted and rested in a small wooden hut nearby.
There were guards in the forest. Whoever caught anything would report the news immediately.
Eunuch Wang smiled awkwardly. “Other than the Eldest Prince and Prince Cheng, it’s Young Master Yan.”
The Emperor thought of the thin horse that Yan Jiuchao had chosen and frowned. Could he catch up to the prey after choosing such a horse? Even chickens could run faster than him!
Yan Jiuchao was riding on a thin horse. He held a bow in one hand and the reins in the other as he walked aimlessly in the forest.
Suddenly, an adult mule appeared beside a locust tree not far away. The mule lowered its head and ate the grass, not noticing that someone was approaching.
Yan Jiuchao calmly drew his bow and aimed it at it. However, just as the arrow was about to leave the bow, a whistling sound came from afar. An arrow accurately pierced through the mule.
“Haha!”
Helian Qi arrogantly rode his horse over.
He stopped in front of Yan Jiuchao and his subordinates picked up the prey he had shot. He looked at Yan Jiuchao and curled his lips in disdain. “Aiya, so Young Master Yan is also here. I thought that prey was ownerless. Don’t blame me. If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for being too slow.”
Yan Jiuchao ignored him and tightened his grip on the reins before turning to leave.
Helian Qi, on the other hand, was like a maggot in his bones. Wherever Yan Jiuchao went, he would follow. He would snatch whatever Yan Jiuchao planned to shoot.
Helian Qi rode his horse alongside Yan Jiuchao. “Young Master Yan, your arrows are not good!”
“Giddy up!” Yan Jiuchao quickened his pace.
Helian Qi said arrogantly, “I advise you not to go forward. It’s dangerous ahead.”
Yan Jiuchao said indifferently, “If you’re afraid, don’t follow me.”
Helian Qi smiled playfully. “Why? You deliberately lured me over… and set up an ambush to kill me?”
Yan Jiuchao looked at him meaningfully. “Are you afraid?”
“Hahaha!” Helian Qi laughed arrogantly. “Although this is your Great Zhou’s territory, do you, an inexperienced brat, have the qualifications to make me afraid?”
Helian Qi knew that this kid was trying to goad him. He did not care because he also wanted to get rid of him. It was reasonable for something to happen in this place that was surrounded by tigers and wolves. It was fine even if someone suspected him. As long as he did it cleanly enough, no one would catch the evidence.
There were indeed more than ten ferocious beasts in the depths of the hunting ground. No one had hunted them in the past few years, so they should be alive and well. Before entering the hunting ground, the guards had reminded them not to go deep.
Yan Jiuchao walked as if no one was around.
“Where are your two dogs? Are they missing or waiting inside?” Helian Qi said arrogantly.
Yan Jiuchao paused and said, “It’s said that a person’s words are good when they’re about to die. I don’t think that’s true.”
Helian Qi did not understand at first. After thinking about it for a long time, he realized that Yan Jiuchao was indirectly scolding him that he was about to die. Brat, how dare he curse him! We don’t even know who will live or die!
Yan Jiuchao, Helian Qi, and his subordinates entered the depths of the forest. It was quiet here, and the trees covered the sun. Occasionally, there were a few bird cries, making one’s hair stand on end.
Helian Qi smiled. “Kid, it’s not too late for you to kneel down and beg me.”
Yan Jiuchao said indifferently, “It’s too late for you to beg me.”
Helian Qi was stunned.
In the next moment, six silver-masked sacrificial soldiers descended from the sky and surrounded Helian Qi and his subordinates.
Their horses felt a powerful killing intent and roared in fear.
Helian Qi hurriedly stabilized his mount and looked coldly at the sudden sacrificial soldiers. He narrowed his eyes dangerously. “No wonder you’re so confident. However, you’re too naive to want to kill me with just these people!”
Helian Qi did not lie. Even though he had lost nearly half of his internal energy, his martial arts were still ridiculously high. Both sides fought violently. His subordinate was hit in the shoulder by the silver-masked sacrificial soldier and fainted on the spot. However, Helian Qi relied on his deep martial arts to forcefully fight to a draw with the six sacrificial soldiers.
Two sacrificial soldiers attacked from both sides. He grabbed their wrists with his bare hands. At this moment, Shadow Thirteen slashed over with his sword. He pushed a sacrificial soldier to block the sword, but Shadow Thirteen threw a dagger at the tree behind him. The hilt of the dagger hit the tree and quickly bounced back, stabbing into his back.
