C373

On the hillside, the imperial guards were everywhere. Their bodies were exuding a powerful killing intent. It was obvious that they were all experienced fighters.

When these people saw Han Yan coming over, they seemed to have heard of him from above and immediately stepped aside to allow Han Yan to go down the mountain.

After a moment, Han Yan arrived in front of the village. Qin Rouer didn't like seeing blood, so he didn't follow.

All the villagers were brought here by force, and they were all kneeling on the ground, their eyes filled with doubt.

Xu Sanduo and the rest were tied up and hung on the memorial archway. When they saw Han Yan had come, all of their expressions changed. Some people were angry, while others were confused. There were even more people who were confused, unable to figure out the current situation. The reason why the Emperor sent so many people over seemed to be because of Han Yan.

Everyone could not understand, how did Han Yan, a person who never left the cave, offend the Emperor?

Wang Heng originally thought that Han Yan would not come here so easily, but when he saw Han Yan, he was slightly startled and said: "Han Yan, I didn't think that you would really come?"

Han Yan's eyes flashed with disdain, and said coldly: "Why didn't you come?"

Hearing these ice-cold words, as well as Han Yan's disdainful expression, Wang Heng's heart trembled. But in the blink of an eye, he realized that the other party was just a first class villager. Thinking up to here, Wang Heng smiled lightly, and said: "Han Yan, I truly admire your courage. "If you burn them down and let this matter go, not only will I release all of the villagers, I will also give each of them 10 gold coins …"

Han Yan did not wait for him to finish, he snorted and said: "What if I don't burn it?"

Wang Heng was startled yet again, he had not expected that after being surrounded by the three thousand imperial guards, Han Yan would still dare to speak in such a tone. Wang Heng took a deep breath and said, "If you don't obey, I'll kill everyone in the village and then bring you back to the Imperial Palace for punishment. Do you understand?"

Of course Han Yan understood and coldly said: "Let them go, I will follow you guys."

Wang Heng frowned, and said: "Let them go?"

"That's right." Han Yan said seriously, "I also want to see what the current emperor looks like."

Hearing this, Wang Heng started to hesitate. Based on his character, he did not want to kill so many innocent commoners.

After thinking about it again and again, Wang Heng nodded and said, "Alright, I'll bring you back then." With that, he waved his hand, signaling the soldiers to release all the villagers.

Wang Heng made this decision for a reason. Since their final goal was to bring Han Yan back, and Han Yan had already agreed to that, it saved them a lot of trouble. Moreover, Wang Heng did not want to stay in this remote place. Although this place had mountains and rivers, and the air was fresh and fresh, it couldn't compare to his Prime Minister's Estate. Beautiful women were as numerous as the clouds over there. They could obtain anything they wanted, and it was definitely not something that could be compared here.

After the villagers were released, Han Yan cupped his fists, and said in a clear voice: "Fellow villagers, I, Han, apologize to you all for today's matter, and I hope that everyone can forgive me." At this point, he paused for a moment before continuing, "I cannot agree to anything else, but there is one thing that I can promise you. The Emperor doesn't dare to do anything to me, nor does he dare to send people to the Bluestone Village. " With that, he looked at Wang Heng, and with a leap, he landed on top of a handsome horse, patted it, and rushed forward.

Seeing this scene, Wang Heng couldn't help but be startled. When he finally reacted, Han Yan was already more than a mile away, and hurriedly shouted. "Quickly chase him, don't let him escape …"

An armored general immediately replied, "Lord Wang, these villagers …"

Wang Heng was extremely anxious in his heart, and said: What villagers are you talking about, they have already fled, what's the use of capturing all these villagers?

"But we can use them to threaten him!" The general thought that since Han Yan was already far away and would not be able to catch up to him, it would be better to grab onto a few people and threaten them.

Wang Heng coldly snorted, and said: "You're threatening me, let's see if the other party will return."

"This …" Although that general could command thousands of men and horses, he didn't dare to take on this responsibility. If threats were useful, then the credit would be his. If threats were useless, then the head would fall off. The general hesitated for a moment, but he did not dare gamble, and shouted loudly: "Everyone heed my orders, chase after Han Yan!"

In that moment, more than seventy percent of the soldiers mounted their horses and chased after Han Yan. The rest of the soldiers were standing by Wang Heng's side, in charge of his safety.

The general said: "Lord Wang, should we chase after him now, or …"

"Chase after what?" Wang Heng coldly snorted, "There's no time to chase after him now."

"Then …"

"Return to the capital."

That general was stunned and puzzled, "Return to the capital?"

Wang Heng nodded her head: "Since this person has said this, he will definitely go and see the emperor. Let's go back!"

Indeed, it was as Wang Heng had guessed, Han Yan was madly rushing towards the direction of the capital.

After Han Yan finished fabricating all the people in his memories, his comprehension had reached an unimaginable level. At the same time, his dao heart had also reached a small success. Through his dao heart, Han Yan realized that even if he did not live his life, if he continued to comprehend it, he would still succeed in reaching the Divine Realm. However, he wasn't sure how long it would take to reach the Soul Formation stage. Maybe tomorrow, maybe a hundred years from now, maybe a long, long time.

The Great Ming Capital remained the same as it was 600 years ago, except that its walls were slightly taller.

In the past, this was the most painful place for Han Yan. The woman in his memories had already gradually dimmed down. If one didn't see something, they wouldn't even remember it. Right now, Han Yan only had one thought in his mind, and that was to transform into a god. Once Spirit Transformation succeeded, his parents would be able to recover their memories and Xiao Yuyao would be able to wake up.

Han Yan's speed was shockingly fast, and the stallion beneath him, as if it had grown wings, appeared five kilometers away in a flash.

On the roadside, everyone who saw this scene widened their eyes.

"Did I see wrongly?" How could that man ride so fast? "

"You saw it too, I thought it was an illusion!"

"Perhaps it's really an illusion. Even the world's most powerful Ferghana Horse cannot reach such a speed!"

"Could it be that the rider is an immortal?"

"I say, brat, is there something wrong with your head? Immortals can fly into the sky and countless others can't? Do they even need to ride a horse?"

"…"

Han Yan flashed past, leaving everyone with endless reverie. There was actually a reason why he did not teleport and chose to ride a horse. Ever since Han Yan was born, he had always lived in the village. At that time, his family wasn't rich, so forget about riding horses, even if he wanted to see horses, it wouldn't be easy. Therefore, Han Yan only wanted to round up his wish to ride on horseback. He also wanted to feel what kind of feeling it was like to ride a horse and ride at a gallop.

The journey from the Bluestone Village to the capital was extremely long. Under normal circumstances, it would take three days, but Han Yan was able to do it in half a day.

That afternoon, Han Yan arrived in front of the capital city and the guards were stunned when they saw Han Yan coming over on his horse.

The two of them did not know who Han Yan was, but they recognized the fine horse beneath Han Yan's feet. Other than the Imperial guards, all the other owners of the Ferghana Horses had extremely high statuses. As a result, the two of them treated Han Yan as a young master and did not obstruct him and allowed him to enter the city.

After entering the city gates, there were more pedestrians, but when they saw Han Yan's momentum, they all stepped aside, afraid that they would be trampled by the horses. After all, there was a rule in the Empire that no one was allowed to run within the city. Anyone who ran about without causing any casualties would be imprisoned for at least ten years. If a certain number of casualties were to be caused, the punishment would be death, depending on the circumstances.

However, there were policies and countermeasures.

Some of the more powerful ones could still ride in the city, but that was in an ordinary county city.

In the capital city, anyone who dared to ride a horse like this under the feet of the Emperor could see how prominent his status was.

It was exactly so, when Han Yan was riding his horse and running away, not only did the citizens move aside, the patrolling soldiers also ignored him.

Just like this, Han Yan sprinted all the way to the entrance of the imperial palace.

The guards at the entrance of the palace were all startled, but even if they thought that Han Yan was an illustrious man, no matter how much courage they had, they would not dare to let him in.

A general who was guarding the city gate was currently on patrol. Seeing Han Yan riding on his Ferghana Horse and rushing over, without stopping, he shouted loudly, "This is an important place in the palace, no one is allowed to enter." Although he said this, he was still puzzled. Whose son of a bitch was he? It was one thing to go to the city and ride a horse, but he actually came here. Didn't he know that riding in front of the palace was a capital offense?

This shout could be heard clearly within a radius of three miles. However, the man acted as though he didn't hear him, and was just about to reach the city gates.

The general's face sank. If he were to intrude into the palace, his brain wouldn't be able to do anything. He quickly said to the guards in front of the gates, "Stop him. If he resists, kill him …"

Don't look at the walls of the imperial palace. There weren't many guards in front of the gates, just ten people. After all, this was where the Son of Heaven was. Who would have thought that someone would come here to cause trouble? If there were a lot of people, they would naturally close the city gates and mobilize a large number of imperial guards from outside the city. At this moment, only one person had come. If the city gates were to be closed, it was likely that they would be mocked by the people of the world.

These ten people had decent martial skills, and any one of them was a master of a hundred men. When they heard the general's words, they immediately raised the spears in their hands. Four people pierced towards the horse leg, two people pierced towards the horse belly, and the rest pierced towards Han Yan. This sort of coordination could be said to be flawless. Even if a normal person possessed a unique skill, they would still die on the spot.

At first, they had assumed that Meng Hao would most certainly die. However, what happened next caused their eyes to go wide. The moment it pierced forward, white light flashed in front of their eyes, and everyone subconsciously closed their eyes. When they opened their eyes again, there was no one in front of them. That man and horse had long disappeared. When he thought about it, it was very likely that the other party had entered the Imperial Palace, and their goal in entering the Imperial Palace was most likely to assassinate the Emperor.

Thinking of this, everyone's face darkened as they hurriedly looked behind them.0

Thousands of feet behind him, a person and a horse were quickly galloping in the direction in which the Emperor lived.

The ten people's faces changed drastically. Just as they wanted to shout out, the general on top of the city gate tower suddenly strummed his whistle and shouted loudly: "There's an assassin!"

"Close the city gates, capture the assassin, and protect the emperor …"

At that moment, Zhu Tianci was reading in his study room. Upon hearing the sound of the whistle, his brows twitched and he bellowed: "Men!"

The voice thought for a long time, but no one came in, causing Zhu Tianci to be confused. He put down the book in his hand and was about to go out to take a look when a man and a horse approached him quickly.

Arriving at the study room, Han Yan held onto the reins and dismounted, then casually walked towards the door. At the door of the study, two of the guards had already fallen asleep. Of course, they were not tired, but rather, Han Yan had used a small technique. Han Yan didn't want to kill anyone, and also didn't want to be disturbed while talking to the emperor. Not only did he make the two of them lose consciousness, he even set up a formation array around the study.

Seeing the other party walk over step by step with an unfriendly face, Zhu Tianci panicked and immediately shouted: "Men, men!"

After a few steps, Han Yan arrived in front of the other party and gave a cold laugh: "Stop shouting. Even if you scream your head off, no one will save you."
