Do Not Offend the Reborn Wicked Wife-Chapter 555: Just Died Like That?

The distance between the two sides is less than fifty steps.

The hall is spacious, and Qi Yun sits high on the Dragon Throne, looking down on them.

"You’re here to kill me, aren’t you!"

His expression is very calm, and he speaks in a statement, clearly convinced that these people are here to kill him.

"We are acting under orders!"

The Black Armor Leader says coldly.

This is the Emperor, the ruler of Dazhou, and deserves some face, otherwise, with their temperament, they wouldn’t bother to say anything.

Qi Yun nods: "Very well, but that depends on whether you have the ability!"

Qi Yun finishes speaking and suddenly slams the table.

"Click, click, click!"

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—"

Accompanied by the sound of gears turning, hundreds of holes suddenly appear in the walls of the hall, and arrows fly out from these holes.

The Black Armor Leader squints and sneers. They wear specially-made steel armor, invincible and impenetrable, so no matter how sharp these arrows are, they cannot pierce the armor. This is destined to be futile!

The Black Armor Leader is very complacent and doesn’t bother to evade the incoming arrows.

"Ding, ding, ding!"

The arrows hit the armor, making a crisp sound, and some of them even throw off sparks from their speed.

But as they see, the arrows only leave a mark on their bodies before falling to the ground.

"You’re the Emperor, I’ll give you face!"

The Black Armor Leader says loudly, his expression cold, raising his arm with a long knife flashing a cold gleam.

Just as he confidently moves to slaughter the guards and the Emperor, suddenly, his pupils shrink violently!

"Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle—"

A piercing noise is constantly heard, followed by clouds of smoke. He looks down, and the source of the smoke is the Black Armor he is wearing!

"How can it be?"

His facial expression changes, almost unable to believe it!

The Black Armor of Tianxing Pavilion is crafted from meteorites and forged with special techniques, absolutely impenetrable by blades or poison, yet now, it is being corroded!

It’s truly horrifying, unbelievably horrifying!

"Hmm, a bit competent!"

The Black Armor Leader looks up and fixes his gaze on Qi Yun, finally feeling that killing this Emperor is not a disgrace to his long knife.

Earlier, he thought it was a shame to kill an unarmed Emperor!

Qi Yun ignores the other’s arrogance and moves his hand over the table. The table is actually filled with mechanisms, and as his palm moves, they are all triggered.

"Click, click!"

The ground shakes, and rows of grids suddenly appear, with long spears emerging from below, their tops flashing green light and looking very eerie. As they emerge, they clash against the metal on the ground, and with a flash of green light, bizarre flames arise.

"Clang!"

The long spears collide with the Black Armor, making the already melting armor even weaker. A muffled groan is heard from inside the Black Armor!

"No more delay, charge and kill!"

The Black Armor Leader is not pleased, sensing the hall’s layout unexpectedly opposes him. Initially, he thought killing someone should not encounter such troubles, but now he realizes he was wrong.

Therefore, to salvage his dignity, he immediately makes the wisest decision, disregarding any face, just charge forward and kill!

It’s only a short distance of fifty or sixty steps, and the Black Armor Leader stomps his feet, his body soaring, hacking away at the incoming arrows with his long knife, lunging at Qi Yun.

Qi Yun presses downward with his other hand on the Dragon Throne’s armrest.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

The ceiling of the Qianlong Palace suddenly splits open in numerous places, releasing clouds of white mist from these openings.

The powder releases an enchanting aroma, sprinkling down in not just white, but yellow, pink, and green.

These mixed powders make the area foggy, impeding vision.

However, the Black Armor Leader has sharp eyesight and can still see a dark row of people opposite.

Although he can’t be sure which one is Qi Yun, since he’s already airborne, the arrow is nocked, and he must release it, forcing him closer to the opponent lest he loses initiative.

In military confrontations, initiative is crucial!

"Protect His Majesty the Emperor!"

"Kill, kill, kill!"

The guards are loyal and brave, forming a solid and firm barrier to protect the Emperor behind them.

They draw their swords, wielding them courageously and fearlessly.

"Clang!"

The Black Armor Leader feels he’s striking a steel plate, unable to make any progress.

As the fog gradually dissipates, he focuses on seeing the soldiers’ overlapping blade movements blocking his advance.

The Black Armor Leader narrows his pupils, not showing astonishment or disbelief but accepting it as natural.

This is why Jianghu forces and the court seldom interact.

Jianghu values individual strength, elevating it to peak mastery, whereas the court prefers collective combat. Especially the soldiers, when they don heavy armor and wield long knives, they become true iron fortresses!

One skilled fighter can defeat ten, dozens of soldiers, but he cannot defeat thousands of troops!

"Hmph!"

The Black Armor Leader snorts coldly, using all his strength on the long knife to slice down.

"Click, click, click..."

All the soldiers’ blades are severed by his brute force, and then, using the momentum, he raises his arm, sending several heads flying.

Hot blood sprays in the air, eye-catching red!

Seeing this, Qi Yun’s face changes dramatically, roaring: "Stop him, stop him! Kill this person, I shall reward heavily!"

Immediately, the guards desperately charge at the Black Armor Leader.

Other Black Armored People arrive too, leading to a one-sided massacre.

Ultimately, their equipment is far superior, and in no time, only Chen Zhong remains beside Qi Yun.

"Blockers, die!"

The Black Armor Leader says coldly as Chen Zhong retreats with a conflicted expression.

Qi Yun stares at him, trembling: "You... you wish to commit regicide? You are indeed bold and reckless. I am the True Dragon Emperor; today, you dare to kill me, tomorrow, divine retribution will be yours!"

"Die, cease your futile struggle. I’ve said, you are the Emperor, I’ll afford you dignity!"

"What... what do you intend?"

"Take your own life in atonement to the world!"

The Black Armor Leader casually tosses the long knife over.

Qi Yun looks at the long knife and suddenly laughs out loud: "Ha ha ha! You want me to take my own life in atonement? What fault have I to atone for? With self-slaughter? Go ahead and kill! I won’t take my own life, nor admit fault. Kill me if you must! As the Emperor, even in death, I will die nobly seated on this Dragon Throne!"

The Black Armor Leader’s eyes flicker momentarily; Qi Yun’s nature is indeed fierce and resolute, harsh toward enemies, and even harsher toward himself, refusing the dignity offered, choosing to die seated on the Dragon Throne as a headless body!

Truly, a heroic leader!

Watching him sit firmly on the Dragon Throne, the Black Armor Leader says solemnly: "Fine, I’ll grant your wish!"

After speaking, the long knife flashes, and a head flies up!

Has a generation’s heroic leader just died like that?
