Wang Xu said coldly, "I advise you to surrender quietly. Don't struggle needlessly. You're well aware of the ruler's means. Death isn't to be feared, the terror is in making your life worse than death!"
A hint of malice flashed in the eyes of the palace guard captain. He pounced forward, injuring one of the guards from Duwei Prefecture, snatched his long sword, and started to fight fiercely with Wang Xu and his men.
Only then did Wang Xu realize he had underestimated the other's martial arts. His dozen or so men were powerless in the enemy's hands.
Wang Xu engaged in combat himself, but alas, he was defeated within ten moves.
What a formidable opponent!
Since when did the palace guard captain mingle with such experts?
Wang Xu parried the other's attack with his sword and gritted his teeth, "Who exactly are you? Who sent you to assassinate the dethroned Princess!"
The other man didn't waste words with Wang Xu and slashed at Wang Xu's arm with his sword.
