Chapter 400 Killing King Zhao (3)

Gu Yuchuan looked at the two daring people who had appeared in front of him. They were just two Foundation Establishment cultivators. Did they really think they could escape?

They saw Gu Yuchuan suddenly appear and were so frightened that they took two steps back. The girl even fell to the ground.

"How dare you! I am Princess Zhaoyang of the Prince's Mansion. How dare you stop me?"

The young man beside him quickly stopped her from speaking, his eyes even showing anger. Indeed, they had come to kill King Zhao, so how could they let go of the bloodline of this royal family?

The boy's eyes held repression and resentment, but he still suppressed his emotions and remained very humble.

"Senior, we are just two Foundation Establishment cultivators. Even if we escape, no one will find out. The contents of this storage bag are not particularly valuable, but they are definitely enough to buy our lives. I wonder if you could spare our lives?"

He looked at Gu Yuchuan with a lot of longing in his eyes, but Gu Yuchuan's face turned cold.

"What a fine young man! Instead of learning some powerful magic or techniques, he's learned a whole host of charm arts. If I were King Zhao, I would definitely teach you a lesson."

It would be quite difficult for a Foundation Establishment cultivator to influence Gu Yuchuan's judgment with charm techniques. He was protected by the Golden Light Mantra, and even if a Nascent Soul cultivator used charm techniques, it would be very difficult to influence him.

"Get out of here. I'm too lazy to talk to you. As long as you don't leave, I won't lay a hand on you. But if you really want to continue breaking the formation, then I'll have no choice but to kill you. Anyway, there won't be a single living thing in your palace today, and no one will know that I'm bullying the weak."

Gu Yuchuan was really bored, so he started scaring the two younger ones. They looked at each other and saw the courage to take a gamble in his words.

As a son of King Zhao, the young man was naturally unwilling to die, and a talisman appeared in his hand.

"Senior should know what this is, right? My brother and I are much weaker than you, but we are not without the ability to fight back. Senior, you can just turn a blind eye and pretend you didn't see anything, right? We are just two Foundation Establishment cultivators. No one will know if we run away."

This means that if the soft approach doesn't work, we have to try a hard one. However, right now, Gu Yuchuan isn't buying into that.

"Boy, you think you can beat me with a top-grade magic weapon? This is the most ridiculous joke I've ever heard in my life. If the magic weapon in your hand were a spirit treasure, I would be somewhat wary of you, but a magic weapon? It's laughable."

He gripped the lamp in his hand tightly and secretly transmitted his voice to his sister: "I will activate the talisman with all my might in a moment. You find the right opportunity and break the formation directly. He is just holding back and won't chase after us. We must survive."

The princess nodded secretly, and the young man began to activate the talisman. Gu Yuchuan was finally taking it seriously; a talisman of the top-grade magic weapon level still required some caution.

This talisman is a beacon; once activated, it burns with everlasting flames. Excellent, it's the fire attribute that Gu Yuchuan hates the most. However, he has now comprehended the Law of Water, so ordinary fire cannot even burn around him.

This talisman is actually quite powerful. If it were facing a Golden Core cultivator, it could really give them a way out. But this is Gu Yuchuan, a true Nascent Soul cultivator.

He stood there without moving, and the flames that approached him turned into white smoke without causing any effective damage.

The two were in despair; they saw no chance of survival. Just then, a beautiful woman walked out from behind them.

This person was dressed in magnificent robes and wore a phoenix crown, indicating that she was the queen consort of King Zhao. She possessed the cultivation of the Great Perfection of the Golden Core stage, making her significantly stronger than the other two. However, in front of Gu Yuchuan, she was no different from them.

"You two, stand behind me, and I will fight for your chance to survive."

The princess's tone was filled with sorrow and despair. She could tell that the situation was dire and that King Zhao was certain to lose. Therefore, she wanted her child to live.

A phoenix hairpin appeared in her hand; it was a top-grade magic weapon and her most powerful possession.

"Senior Demon Emperor, since you are unwilling to give us a way out, then don't blame me for being rude."

The phoenix hairpin transformed into a golden phoenix and swung at Gu Yuchuan. Gu Yuchuan's expression remained unchanged; such an attack was nothing special to him.

Even with just the passive defense of the Golden Light Mantra, he was already able to block the seemingly invincible Golden Phoenix.

"Your Highness, I advise you to take your child and go back. Now that I'm here, I won't allow you to run away."

The princess's eyes were filled with determination. At this moment, she was simply a mother who loved her children dearly, and she was determined to ensure that her children would live.

She hugged the children behind her: "Listen to me, I'm going to self-destruct in a moment to give you a chance to survive. You must escape. When that happens, forget your identities, forget your hatred, and live well. Don't seek revenge."

"Mother!" The boy and girl cried out pitifully, which made Gu Yuchuan feel that he was the bad guy. But in an instant, this feeling disappeared. When King Zhao committed evil deeds in the past, he didn't know how many people died tragically. And what did the Hu family do wrong? Today they came to kill King Zhao, and none of his children could live.

After giving her instructions, the princess didn't say anything more, but her eyes were much calmer, clearly indicating that she had made her decision.

She charged towards Gu Yuchuan, her magical power surging and becoming extremely unstable, seemingly on the verge of collapse—a prelude to self-destruction. However, Gu Yuchuan's expression remained unchanged; he simply activated the Golden Light Spell.

Golden light blocked all the attacks in front of him. As for the two royal heirs, they were not in any major problems under the protection of the talisman. The queen's self-destruction was as if nothing had happened, without even a splash.

"Mother!" they cried out, but their mother had already self-destructed, her soul and body perished, and she could no longer give them any response. Sadly, in the end, their mother did not give them any chance to survive.

Gu Yuchuan didn't plan to play with them any longer. The direct battle was almost over. Now, six Nascent Soul cultivators were besieging King Zhao. Even though King Zhao was the strongest among the mid-Nascent Soul cultivators, it was still too difficult for him to fight six against one.

Gu Yuchuan is going to hold the line. King Zhao, who has been forced into a corner, might resort to desperate measures.

With a wave of his hand, the two Foundation Establishment cultivators died without a trace.
