Chapter 745 -463 Descendants of Light_2
He lifted the long sword constructed of light.
“Holy Guard of Radiance, slay the enemies for the king.”
“Die!”
Two high-ranking knights at his side stepped forward, each swinging their swords. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
Their slashes trembled the space, flames seeming to fill the entire field of vision, intertwining streams of golden fire pushing across, instantaneously shattering the pillars of light, merging them into a shockwave that rolled over the remaining eight assassins.
Although dozens of meters away, Chen Lun still felt a searing pain all over his body, accompanied by a burning sensation. His vision was a blinding gold, making it difficult to breathe. He involuntarily used both “Spirit Breath” and “Five Senses Perception” to adapt to the sudden change in the environment.
Only after retreating a distance did he feel slightly better, and he also inwardly marveled at the two Saint Level knights’ mythical power, which was truly terrifying.
The slashing and burning lasted nearly twenty seconds before the area in the Spirit World slowly returned to normal… When Chen Lun came back to his senses, those assassins were already reduced to ashes, and Prince Dazlert seemed too preoccupied to pay attention to Chen Lun, turning his head to speak something to the five high-ranking knights with a solemn expression.
Hum!
The surrounding scene gradually faded from deep blue, returning to reality.
The noise and clamor resumed in his ears, the original street already blocked tightly by countless Imperial Guards, with curious onlookers pressing from outside, peering towards here.
Hearing that the Prince had been attacked, the residents of the Central District were all concerned. Some in lavish clothing even cursed the assassins continuously, showing how highly regarded Dazlert was among the people.
Chen Lun composed himself, donned a new coat to cover the charred clothes beneath, adjusted his hat, and then walked towards the Prince.
However, just as he took two steps, a flash of golden light suddenly moved in front of him, a sword of golden light directly aimed at his throat.
Looking up, he could only see the closed visor of the Golden Armored Knight, as if through those slits, a pair of indifferent eyes were gazing down at him.
“Stop or die.”
Chen Lun narrowed his eyes, realizing that the high-ranking knights had also included him among the suspects of the assassin… After all, the Prince was in the carriage with him before the attack, making it hard not to suspect his involvement in the assassination.
Just then, a voice came from behind the high-ranking knight:
“Let him come, Jack couldn’t possibly be an assassin.”
Immediately, the high-ranking knight retracted the sword of light, humming as the long sword transformed into golden points and dissipated. His upright figure turned slowly, bowing his head while placing a hand over his chest.
Chen Lun kept a calm expression, crossed past the knight, and stood before the Prince.
Behind the Prince, the other four Golden Armored Knights stood silently, like towering statues.
“Didn’t expect such a twist to occur, disrupting our pleasant conversation…”
Prince Dazlert chuckled lightly, seemingly unconcerned about the earlier assassination.
He gently patted Chen Lun’s shoulder, expressing his appreciation:
“Though the surprise came suddenly, I saw very clearly that you thought of my safety first, and I’m very pleased.”
“As a member of the Imperial Judgement Group, that is my duty,”
Chen Lun said, lowering his head.
“We have just been through a life and death situation, so there’s no need to speak to me in the subordinate’s tone right now… The carriage is destroyed; I can’t take you back to the Generous Church District, but I’ll have two ‘Holy Guards of Radiance’ accompany you.”
The Prince spoke as if conversing with a friend.
Chen Lun glanced at the four Golden Armored Knights behind him, internally noting that these bodyguards protecting the Prince were the Saint Level knights known as Holy Guards of Radiance.
The depth of the Royal Family, indeed formidable as always.
He shook his head, declining the Prince’s kind offer.
“No need, Your Highness. It’s not far to the Generous Church from here; I will manage on my own.”
Seeing this, the Prince did not insist, merely nodding gently.
Chen Lun bowed once again to Dazlert before taking his leave.
However, just as he passed through the layers of Imperial Guards and reached the road on the outskirts, he suddenly became aware, swiftly turning his head towards a direction.
In the crowd, a middle-aged bald man who was watching intently suddenly froze. His expression shifted and then he abruptly closed his mouth and silently left without any fuss.
But during this process, the man seemed to realize someone was watching him, and he turned his head, his eyes meeting Chen Lun’s.
The man was clearly taken aback with even a hint of panic in his glance, but he concealed it well, averting his gaze and continued to walk away as if nothing happened.
Chen Lun was somewhat astonished.
The reason he looked at that man was because of his Destiny Faction ability… Just then, for a split second, he distinctly sensed among the crowd, one person’s destiny drastically changing, a shift so abrupt and mysterious it seemed like someone’s life trajectory had suddenly made a one-hundred-and-eighty-degree turn.
For him, who had begun to interpret destiny trajectories, he knew such a significant turn equated to this man dying on the spot and being reborn, achieving a phoenix-like transformation…
However, that man was just an ordinary person.
This appeared highly sinister.
Considering the recent assassination attempt, Chen Lun instantly came up with a plausible conjecture:
‘Perhaps, not all twelve assassins died… One of them might have used some method to revive through the body of an onlooker, escaping the guaranteed deadly situation.’
