Chapter 293: Luring An Enemy Away From His Territory (2)
Gong Yimo obediently followed him out and when they walked out the room, she saw that there were already several bodies littered in front of the room. The sound of slaughter was gradually fading. Gong Yimo looked up at the sky and saw a bright moon, the people in the first wave of attack had all died.
Before Luo Qi could even let a sigh of relief, someone rushed up to him and reported, “Not good, there are people charging in from both the front and back door!”
The expression on Luo Qi’s face became ugly. Did those people united together to invade the residence?
It was fine if someone was trying to charge in forcefully. He turned to look at Gong Yimo who was standing quietly beside him; this was the most dangerous person!
While he stared at Gong Yimo, Gong Yimo looked worriedly in the direction of the imperial palace.
For them to make such a big move, it meant that they are confident and fearless. The only reason that they’re confident and fearless is if an accident had happened in the imperial palace, so Gong Jue can’t return immediately…
“Are you telling the truth?”
The feast had just ended and the emperor was currently looking at Gong Jue.
Gong Jue bowed his head, “Everything I’ve said is true! When you first use this item, you will feel good and your spirit will improve. After long term usage, the body will begin to deteriorate and you will become addicted to it, becoming easily manipulable by others!”
When the emperor was muttering to himself, Gong Jue continued, “Prince Nan certainly doesn’t have the courage and mind to come up with such an idea. There must someone instigating this behind him. During the feast, my action must’ve alarmed them. Therefore, I beseech you for your permission to arrest Prince Nan as soon as possible to prevent him from escaping!”
Gong Cheng admired how decisive he was and as if he thought of something, the emperor can’t help but ask, “Today, you had inhaled a little of the smoke, will there be a problem?”
Gong Jue paused for a moment before he replied, “There won’t be any problems!”
Although his reply was firm, the emperor thought that Gong Jue was only saying that so that he wouldn’t worry. The emperor was very moved by this, and immediately allowed him to arrest Prince Nan!
Gong Jue accepted the order and immediately brought people to arrest Prince Nan. However, when he arrived, Prince Nan had already run away. He smiled coldly and ordered his subordinates to chase after him while he brought another group of people and rushed toward Prince Qi’s residence.
Gong Yimo and Gong Jue had the same thought. He won’t fall for their trick; they are trying to lure him away! His royal sister was the most important person to him!
Prince Qi’s residence had really got caught up in a bitter battle!
Some people came to kidnap Gong Yimo, while others came to kill her. Even if Gong Jue had left behind a lot of hidden guards, it was hard for two fists to defend against four fists. Luo Qi was waiting for backup because he couldn’t keep the defense up anymore.
Gong Yimo felt distressed for those dead guards. She wanted to leave because her location was already exposed! She can avoid them once, but she can’t avoid them twice!
If she was caught this time and the emperor couldn’t find her, then the emperor would take it out on Gong Jue! She can’t stay here any longer, she must leave here!
Finally, when the number of the opposing parties increased, Luo Qi couldn’t protect her anymore. He locked her in a room and joined the battle!
However, he never would’ve imagined that Gong Yimo had recovered her internal strength! A small room like this would never be able to trap her, she immediately escaped from the room!
In order to prevent more casualties from Prince Qi’s residence, the first thing she did when she escaped was to use explosives to bomb the perimeter walls!
The rumbling sound of the explosion had a great impact on the people that were fighting; everyone stopped fighting.
“Not good! She escaped!”
Who didn’t know that only Gong Yimo would have gunpowder? This earth-shattering explosion was like a signal that it was her!
Although the enemies came from different factions, they all retreated together like a tide and rushed in the direction of the explosion. Even the people from Prince Qi’s residence rushed in the direction of the explosion when they found that Gong Yimo had disappeared!
When Gong Jue heard the explosion, his heart trembled. Not good! Royal sister is in trouble!
