"Assassin!!"
A shriek shattered the night's silence in the Royal Palace, echoing into every corner.
RATTLE! RATTLE!
The Imperial Guard soldiers in the palace sprang into action, their Iron Armor rattling as they ran.
WHOOSH! WHOOSH!
Imperial Guards leaped into the air, vaulting onto walls and rooftops, speeding across them in a blur.
SWISH! SWISH!
Experts from the Dragon Guard Bureau shot into the night sky, streaking through the twilight.
They all converged on a single location.
The palace of the Sovereign, Fu Jintian!
After a successful strike, the assassin quickly melted into the fog, retreating toward the outer walls of the Royal Palace.
However, the Fu Family's King's Body, who stood guard over the Royal Palace, was already charging over.
His expression changed drastically as he looked at the roiling fog and sensed the anomaly within.
"Xiang Wansheng? The Xiang Family is courting death!"
BOOM!
A deafening roar shattered the night.
