As An Immortal, I Only Learn Forbidden Skills - Chapter 714
714 All the Coachmen Are Killed
The coachman howled, but he was unable to move. He could only speak.
“Lord Ning Caichen, what are you doing?”
He tried to smile at Jiang Ming while completely disregarding the silver needle.
However, Jiang Ming could clearly see that the coachman was afraid. He was just pretending not to be afraid.
It did not matter. He was still afraid.
Jiang Ming found the coachman a little funny. Then, he looked into his eyes and said, “Don’t you know what I want to do? What I want to do now is very simple. I hope that you can bring us to the palace. If you listen to us, we will not touch you.”
Zhu Asi suddenly thought of something and smacked his head.
Why didn’t he think of that? The most important thing to humans was their lives. The coachman would obviously value his life, right?
Upon hearing this, the coachman understood what Jiang Ming meant. Then, he nodded and said, “Lord Ning Caichen, please rest assured. I will definitely take you to the palace.”
He did not want to die at all.
He would rather betray his master.
The other coachmen understood the meaning of the coachman’s words and did not say anything else. They respectfully went to another carriage and planned to drive the carriage.
They had already realized the gravity of the situation.
Their fellow coachman’s life was threatened, so their lives were also in danger.
At this moment, some arrows suddenly shot over from afar. The arrows shot over and directly pierced the coachmen’s bodies.
The coachmen all fell down and spat out black blood. It was obvious that they could not be saved.
Zhu Asi looked at the people around him and his expression became serious. “It seems that someone is playing tricks.”
Feng Yunche’s heart tensed up. He looked in the direction of the arrow, but there was no one there.
They could no longer find the person who shot the arrow.
Jiang Ming went forward to check and sighed. “These coachmen are all dead. We can only rely on ourselves to find our way.”
“Damn it, if I find out who the assailant is, I will definitely make him suffer!”
Madman Senior lost his patience and started cursing.
Madman Senior followed up, saying, “Yeah, we were all looking for a way to make this work, but now we have to think of a new way to get out of here.”
The princess could not help but become irritable. “It’s so troublesome to go see the royal family. We might as well go back. It’s fine if we don’t go see the royal family!”
At this moment, two phoenixes descended from the sky and flew toward Jiang Ming and the others before landing on the ground.
These phoenixes came to Jiang Ming’s side and kissed his cheek very kindly.
Jiang Ming smiled and touched the feathers of the two phoenixes.
Unlike before, they were very obedient and docile.
Master Long was stunned. “Who are these two phoenixes? They don’t look like the two phoenixes we met.”
“No, these two phoenixes are the ones we met. It’s just that their personalities seem to have changed, which is why you think they’re different phoenixes,” Jiang Ming explained.
“Do these two phoenixes know the way to the palace? Why don’t we let them lead us?”
Yue Ya made a suggestion. She looked at Jiang Ming.
“They have already told us, but they can only be used as a guide. We can’t ride them.”
Jiang Ming noticed that Yue Ya had other ideas and directly exposed them.
Yue Ya did not expect Jiang Ming to see through her, and she felt embarrassed for a moment.
Then, she felt very awkward.
She had always been very self-assured and dignified. Now that other people had seen this side of her, she felt quite upset.
Zhu An’an broke the silence. Looking at the phoenixes’ feathers, she could not help but touch them in awe.
As a result, one feather was directly pulled off.
Zhu An’an was instantly dumbstruck.
She had only touched it once. How did the feather fall off?
The phoenix did not call out, nor did it shout. It did not even look at Zhu An’an.
“You can consider it a gift. Just accept it.”
Zhu Asi said as he looked at Zhu An’an.
Zhu An’an felt that what Zhu Asi said made sense, so she put away the feather.
Yue Ya and the others also boarded the carriage. This time, because the coachmen was dead, they were the ones driving the carriage.
The phoenixes led the way. Their bright red wings were flamboyant and charming.
When the guards in the palace saw the phoenixes, they could not help but jump in fright. They all thought that the phoenixes were here to attack the Daliang Kingdom.
Just as they were getting their men ready for the attack, a soldier with sharp eyes immediately noticed the carriage behind the phoenixes.
The carriage was gorgeous, and there was a royal emblem on the outside.
This made the soldiers confused.
“It’s someone from the royal family!”
The soldiers could not help but become anxious and quickly opened the gates for everyone.
The group entered smoothly, and their path was unobstructed.
When they arrived at the palace, Jiang Ming and the others got out of the car.
Liang Sisi’s palace was nearby. Yue Ya brought Jiang Ming and the others to the front of the palace.
At this moment, Liang Sisi saw that no one had come over for a long time, so she began to play with the little prince and princess in boredom.
The little prince and the little princess were both born from the concubine of King Liang. This concubine was already dead.
Liang Sisi was very supportive of these two motherless children, so she brought the two children under her name.
These two children were also smart and obedient, which made her very happy.
The little princess’s voice was soft and sweet as she shouted at Liang Sisi, “Sisi, will anyone come over later? Should we leave for a while?”
The little prince also said considerately, “Sisi, I recently learned a recipe for a new pastry that you like to eat. I’ll make it for you later.”
The more Liang Sisi looked at the two children, the more she liked them. She stroked their hair and said with a smile, “There will indeed be people coming later, but it won’t stop you from staying here. You can make pastries, but you must be careful.”
Her gaze was filled with love, and she could not help but sigh in her heart.
She was already very happy to have these two. She did not need to have other children in the future.
However, at this moment, the servants suddenly rushed to Liang Sisi. “Princess, it’s bad. Your best friend, the Minister of Rites, is seriously ill and seems to be on her last breath.”
“What?”
Liang Sisi widened her eyes and stood up in a panic.
She and the minister of the Ministry of Rites, Xu Yuanchen, were lifelong friends.
Now that something had happened to Xu Yuanchan, she could not ignore it.
At this thought, Liang Sisi instructed the servants, “Take good care of the prince and princess. Also, let Prince Liang stay here. He said that he’s waiting for me to see him when I have time.”
