More and more inner court experts surged in. King Nanyang's martial arts were outstanding, but he could not withstand such a round-robin battle.
In a moment of desperation, he looked at the Empress Dowager.
He wanted to hold the Empress Dowager hostage.
He only wanted a hostage and did not intend to hurt anyone. Unfortunately, he stepped on a round gem. His feet slipped and the sword in his hand stabbed at the Empress Dowager.
His expression changed.
Everything happened too quickly. He didn't have time to retract his sword or dodge.
The Empress Dowager watched in a daze as the sword stabbed at her.
Puchi—
The sharp blade struck.
Emperor Jing Xuan fell in front of the Empress Dowager.
An expert rushed over and kicked King Nanyang away. The sword in Emperor Jing Xuan's chest was pulled out.
Blood splattered all over the ground.
