The execution ground was suddenly panicked.

The onlookers fled one after another, screaming and crying as loud as the cry of young children.

Some officers and soldiers rushed out from both ends of the evacuated crowd, pulling their throats high and shouting:

"Don't panic, run out one by one, don't step on or bump into others."

These were the officers and soldiers specially arranged by Murong Ci, a few dozens of them, and they urged the people to leave quickly on both sides.

On the execution ground, dozens of masked men in black clothes came flying into the sky and fought fiercely with the Elite Soldiers of the Capital Defense Department and the Imperial Guard.

The prisoner wearing a gold robe and a golden mask was taken away by two masked men in black clothes, but the Elite Soldiers of the Capital Defense Department immediately went to stop them.

The Minister of the Ministry of Crimes and Justice and the Dali Temple Secretary Gu Huai watched the brutal and blood-splattered scene in front of them, sweating, and a little embarrassed.

'This foreigner prisoner had so many accomplices working for him!'

They looked at each other and communicated with their eyes—

'Although the prisoner's accomplices came in a timely manner, our response was very quick, and even out of thin air, many Elite Soldiers fought fiercely with the enemy.'

Judging from their knowledge and years of experience as Officials, they knew it would have been impossible for them to hold so many masked men in black clothes unless they had deployed them early!

Looking at the deploy of Elite Soldiers of the Imperial Guard and the Capital Defense Department, they were all talented soldiers and guards.

They all looked at the Crown Prince at the same time.

'Was this all His Highness' deployment?

Was is really done by him?

Or could it be deployed by the Regent?

But why didn't he come then?'

The Ghost Guard stood beside Murong Ci, always paying attention to the situation in front of him, and also protecting the safety of His Royal Highness.

Murong Ci's eyes and lips were filled with a cold smile, and her blood was boiling.

'Although the masked men in black clothes are good, our troops today are all Elite Soldiers. Both sides have wounded or dead people, but half of the assassins has already died.'

Shen Zhiyan breathed a sigh of relief and rejoiced:

"Most of the onlookers have already dispersed, so they should be fine."

Some masked men in black clothes escaped, but they were quickly intercepted by the Guards crouching on the periphery.

The Minister of the Ministry of Crimes and Justice and the Dali Temple Secretary Gu Huai saw the people in black clothes sporadically popping up from all directions.

Their behavior was even more strange, and they could not help sweating on their foreheads.

Soon, only one-third of the masked men in black clothes was left, and the fake Yue Jing Chen was taken away by a Ghost Guard who flew as fast as an eagle and threw him under the monitoring stage.

This Ghost Guard was intangible and shadowless.

The masked men in black clothes saw their leader being captured again, and rushed forward to snatch him frantically.

More than a dozen Ghost Guards appeared out of the blue and fought against the masked men in black clothes who had been fighting for a long time.

One of the masked men in black clothes was good at Martial Arts, so he flew up towards the monitoring platform with a long sword. The goal was Murong Ci.

Murong Ci was calm and relaxed, as if waiting for the assassin to assassinate her.

The masked man suddenly stretched out his left hand as he approached the monitoring platform.

*Shoo!*

Arrows flew out from his sleeve!

The short arrows pierced out the surroundings like a flying silver lightning, shone by the bright sunlight.

The Minister of the Ministry of Crimes and Justice and the Dali Temple Secretary Gu Huai were taken aback and yelled,

"Protect His Royal Highness! Protect His Royal Highness!"
