Hiss!
Everyone gasped!
That was Grandmaster Erlang’s real strength! Those who wanted to stand up and speak for Chang Er held their
breath fearfully.
“Lady Chang Er, I—”
E Lai looked miserable; he gaped at Chang Er. He had failed as a personal guard to keep the Empress safe—he was
incompetent. The more E Lai thought about it, the angrier he got. The bad emotion was not good for him. He
fainted as everything around him turned dark.
“Yang Jian!”
Chang Er’s pretty face turned somber as she scolded Yang Jian. “How dare you do that to E Lai! Do you still respect
me? Well, you want to imprison me for your investigation, right? Let’s see if you have the ability to do that!”
Crack!
A sword appeared in Chang Er’s hand, accompanied by a crisp sound.
The sword had a brilliant luster. Its blade was about one meter and one inch long, and it dazzled like the stars and
moon.
It was Chang Er’s personal weapon—Star and Moon Sword!
That weapon’s primary material was rumored to be a rare meteorite that appeared when the world was first
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtformed. Emperor Hou Yi stumbled upon it and used it to make a sword for Chang Er. When Chang Er first got the
sword, she liked it very much. She waved it around on the spot, and it was like how the moonlight shone onto the
earth. That was how Chang Er got her name as the Moon Palace Fairy.
As soon as she drew her sword, the spiritual power in the entire room suddenly converged!
Damn it!
Darryl shook as he felt the powerful aura that emanated from the Star and Moon Sword; he was extremely
shocked.
Chuck!
Chang Er leapt up and then aimed a stab at Yang Jian without any hesitation!
Whoa!
Chang Er used all of her strength in that sword attack; I was also driven by the immense grief and anger in her
heart. Emperor Hou Yi had just died, and she was still grieving. How could she tolerate Yang Jian’s accusation of
her?
The air distorted wherever the sword went!
Ugh!
Yang Jian sighed lightly without panic. He stood there as steady as Mount Tai while his gaze followed Chang Er’s
sword!
“Lady Chang Er, I’m doing this to investigate the Emperor’s death. I have no choice but to offend you since you’re
not ready to cooperate with me!”
Yang Jian’s gaze turned cold after he said that. The scary aura in him rose as he wielded the Tri-point Double-edged
Saber to meet Chang Er’s sword!
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The Star and Moon Sword and the Tri-point Double-edged Saber collided numerous times and made loud clanking
noises. The people around them could not bear the uncomfortable noises.
Oh, yes!
The fight had finally started; Darryl’s opportunity to escape was almost there!
Darryl was excited; he wanted to escape amid the chaos with Celine and Queenie, but he held back after he saw
the number of guards outside the room!
He convinced himself that there would be plenty of opportunities to do that in the future since they had started an
internal fight.
At that moment, on the jade platform.
Chang Er’s graceful figure darted back and forth in the fight with Yang Jian.
She was very confident at first, but she gradually lost hope.
‘What happened? When did Yang Jian become so strong?’
Chang Er and Yang Jian had fought each other thousands of years ago. At that time, they were equal in strength.
However, things had changed. Chang Er felt that Yang Jian’s strength had already surpassed her by leaps and
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmbounds.
That was not a surprise. Chang Er had lived a good life as a pampered Empress for thousands of years since she
married Emperor Hou Yi. Over the years, she had slacked in her cultivation under Emperor Hou Yi’s protection.
Yang Jian, on the other hand, had been working hard for nearly a thousand years. Hence, he had long surpassed
Chang Er in strength.
Yang Jian did not want to continue with the fight. He flipped his hand and sent a palm attack at Chang Er when he
noticed she had lost her focus!
His palm attack was so fast that Chang Er could not avoid it. She could only use her internal energy to greet Yang
Jian’s palm with her own!
Boom!
The two palms created a dull vibration. Chang Er retreated several steps backward; her beautiful face looked
surprised and embarrassed!
Then, Yang Jian dashed forward and quickly raised his hand to tap twice on Chang Er’s acupoints.
Suddenly, Chang Er stiffened; she could not move an inch.
“Take her down!”
Yang Jian gave the command without any hesitation.
A few royal guards came and took Chang Er out of the room. The guards were loyal to Yang Jian, and they only
obeyed him!
