"There's an assassin!"

"An assassin has infiltrated the Royal Palace!"

"It's Pavilion Master Wu from the Canglan Pavilion!"

The Royal Palace Imperial Guard were immediately shaken and rushed towards Su Yuan's location without hesitation.

As the Royal Palace Imperial Guard, they were absolutely loyal to the Great Yong Dynasty and were ready to die for the emperor at any time.

"That Pavilion Master Wu actually dared to sneak into the Royal Palace?" The twelve Imperial Guard Commander also received the news.

Several months ago, the twelve commanders joined forces and used military formations to entangle with Su Yuan at the inner city gate at the end of Vermilion Bird Avenue.

"We absolutely cannot allow this Pavilion Master Wu to run rampant in the Royal Palace!"

The twelve Imperial Guard Commander immediately rushed towards Su Yuan's location.

Not long ago, the previous head of the Canglan Pavilion infiltrated the Royal Palace and stole Shattering Grade Martial Arts Manual.

If Su Yuan were to succeed again, what would become of the Great Yong Dynasty's prestige?

The Yangxin Hall.

Emperor of Dayong's expression turned cold. He never expected that Pavilion Master Wu of the Canglan Pavilion would actually dare to sneak into the Royal Palace.

And... infiltrating the Royal Palace without any restraint?

Did the Former Pavilion Master of Canglan really know to have someone attack the Royal Palace to draw attention while he secretly infiltrated Royal Palace?

But Su Yuan?

They didn't make any of these preparations at all!

Is this a sign of disrespect towards the Great Yong Dynasty?

"Your Majesty, rest assured, the twelve Imperial Guard Commander have already arrived, and tens of thousands of Imperial Guards have surrounded them. That Pavilion Master Wu... has no chance of escape!"

The old eunuch beside him said in a low voice.

"Of course I know that!"

Emperor of Dayong's expression was indifferent. With the strength of that Pavilion Master Wu, if he hadn't been on the Red-Level Wanted Order, he could have easily sneaked into the Royal Palace without a sound.

He'll definitely be scared.

After all, Pavilion Master Wu is widely recognized Super First Grade, no less than his great-uncle.

But now?

With the Red-Level Wanted Order in effect, Su Yuan's location was clearly visible to everyone.

Even Super First Grade couldn't possibly withstand a direct confrontation with tens of thousands of Imperial Guards and twelve peak-rank Imperial Guard Commander.

Moreover, his great-uncle was also in the Royal Palace.

Therefore, in Emperor of Dayong's eyes, when Su Yuan was discovered to have infiltrated the Royal Palace, he was essentially a dead man.

Compared to the orderly atmosphere inside the Royal Palace.

Outside the Royal Palace, the Royal Capital was plunged into brief chaos.

The Red-Level Wanted Order covers the entire Royal Capital, so many experts within the Royal Capital also received news that Pavilion Master Wu of the Canglan Pavilion had infiltrated the Royal Palace.

"Holy crap, Pavilion Master Wu really infiltrated the Royal Palace!"

"No wonder my friend in the Canglan Pavilion told him that all the members of the Canglan Pavilion went to the four city gates."

"That's not right. All the members went to the four city gates. Did Pavilion Master Wu sneak into the Royal Palace alone?"

"This shouldn't be considered infiltrating the Royal Palace alone, right? It's Red-Level Wanted Order..."

Many Empire Citizen were discussing it.

In recent months, Empire Citizen players who have entered the Shattering the Void World have found it difficult to escape the shadow of Pavilion Master Wu.

Super First Grade in the world?

Could he single-handedly resist the existence of the Great Yong Dynasty?

Who is the master of the Canglan Pavilion, the largest player faction?

With so many accolades, no player who is an Empire Citizen can afford to ignore Su Yuan.

"This is troublesome for Pavilion Master Wu."

"With Red-Level Wanted Order on him, and in the Royal Palace no less, Pavilion Master Wu will likely face certain death."

"Pavilion Master Wu has been careless. As the master of the Canglan Pavilion, he actually ordered all his subordinates to attack the four city gates?"

The Empire Citizen were exchanging ideas, and most of them were not optimistic about Su Yuan, after all, that was the Royal Palace.

So what if it 'Super First Grade?

Are there no Super First Grade experts within the Royal Palace?

Inside the Royal Palace.

A large number of Imperial Guard rushed in to attack.

Su Yuan, wielding Silver Spear, swept it horizontally.

A terrifying force surged forth, further enveloped by an invisible spiritual force.

The large group of Imperial Guard who had surrounded them suddenly became unsteady, and were then severely wounded and sent flying by a sweeping attack of Silver Spear.

Just then--

The twelve concealed auras suddenly exploded, quickly merging into one, forming an incomparably terrifying aura that rapidly approached Su Yuan.

The twelve Imperial Guard Commander who were responsible for operating military formations.

The twelve Imperial Guard Commander were all at the peak of the first rank. However, after operating the military formation, they could merge their minds and power into one, unleashing power that was almost Super First Grade.

"The commander is here!"

The appearance of the twelve Imperial Guard Commander revitalized the morale of the surrounding Imperial Guard.

Several months ago, the twelve Imperial Guard Commander were entangled with Su Yuan for a long time at the end of the Vermilion Bird Avenue.

"Pavilion Master Wu, die!"

The twelve Imperial Guard Commander appeared from all directions around Su Yuan and immediately launched an attack simultaneously. With the support of the military formation, all the attacks were as one.

"The commanders are stronger than before."

The Imperial Guard, whose strength had reached the first rank, were full of admiration. Clearly, after their last encounter with Su Yuan, the twelve Imperial Guard Commander had learned from their mistakes and further enhanced the power of their General Formation.

"Hiss--"

Su Yuan thrust out his spear, piercing the head of one of the Imperial Guard Commander. With one of the twelve Imperial Guard Commander gone, the formation collapsed without a fight, and the remaining eleven Imperial Guard Commander retreated rapidly.

"What?"

The eleven commanders stared wide-eyed. The twelve commanders were manipulating their military formation, their auras merging into one. Attacking one of them was equivalent to attacking all twelve of them, which was the most powerful aspect of the military formation.

So Su Yuan killed one of their Imperial Guard Commander so easily?

"How can he be so strong?"

After the eleven Imperial Guard Commander realized what was happening, they couldn't help but tremble. Clearly, they had noticed the change in Su Yuan's strength.

Just a few months ago, could they barely hold their own against Su Yuan?

But now? Su Yuan broke through the army's formation with a wave of his hand and killed a commander.

This level of strength is far greater than it was a few months ago.

"Too weak."

Su Yuan sheathed his spear and glanced at the fallen Imperial Guard Commander.

In his last encounter with the twelve Imperial Guard Commander, his Combat Bonus him at the level of a newly promoted Super First Grade soldier.

Although the Grey Mirror can reveal the weaknesses of a military formation and thus break it, it still requires dozens of moves to do so.

Now, Su Yuan's Combat Bonus by more than 290 times, making him a completely different level from a few months ago. He can break through the formation of twelve Imperial Guard Commander commanders without even needing to question the Grey Mirror; he can do it with a wave of his hand.

When there is a huge gap in strength, all skills become meaningless.

Given Su Yuan's current strength, the only tactic the Shattering the Void World could use to kill him is a sheer numbers of people.

Only by using sheer numbers to exhaust Su Yuan's physical strength and stamina can they hope to wear him down.

As long as his physical strength and stamina are not exhausted, Su Yuan is invincible.

This is also why Su Yuan ordered all members of the Canglan Pavilion to go to the four city gates to block the millions of troops outside the city from entering.

"Everyone, attack together!"

The remaining eleven Imperial Guard Commander, steeling themselves, gave the order, and at the same time, they formed a battle formation once more.

However, compared to a twelve-man formation, an eleven-man formation is clearly weaker.

"Outlast him!"

The eleven Imperial Guard Commander dared not confront Su Yuan directly, and could only keep him occupied from the perimeter, allowing the numerous Imperial Guards to wear down Su Yuan's stamina.

"So noisy!"

Su Yuan took a step forward, his figure like a ghost, appearing in front of one of the Imperial Guard Commander, and then thrust out with his spear.

The second Imperial Guard Commander is dead!

With the Imperial Guard Commander at their command, the entire Imperial Guard seemed to have a backbone, which indeed helped to wear down Su Yuan's physical strength.

Therefore, the Imperial Guard Commander had to die first.

How is that possible?

The second Imperial Guard Commander looked at the spear that had pierced his chest. He had been careful enough, hiding among the many Imperial Guards, and with the strength of the eleven-man formation, he still had no ability to resist Su Yuan's killing intent.

Puff!

Su Yuan drew his spear and continued his attack on the other Imperial Guard Commander.

Inside the Yangxin Hall.

The Emperor of Dayong, his gaze cold, said, "I want to leave that Pavilion Master Wu with a whole corpse, skin him alive, stuff his skin with straw, and hang it beneath the city gates to intimidate all Outsider in the world..."

In recent months, the number of Outsider has surged again, and with Su Yuan leading the way, Outsider seem to have little respect for the Great Yong Dynasty.

This time, the Emperor of Dayong decided to use Su Yuan's corpse to show all the Outsider in the world what the consequences would be for opposing the Great Yong Dynasty.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty.

"Something's wrong!"

Suddenly, a member of the Imperial Guard rushed in, looking flustered, to report.

"What's wrong?" Emperor of Dayong frowned.

"Commander Ruan An is dead." The Imperial Guard's face turned pale.

"Ruan An is dead?" The Emperor of Dayong's expression changed.

Ruan An was one of the twelve Imperial Guard Commander and was his confidant.

"Ruan An is dead? Didn't he promise me that if he encountered that Pavilion Master Wu again, he would definitely..."

Emperor of Dayong looked grim.

But before he could finish speaking...

Another Imperial Guard rushed in.

"Your Majesty, Commander Zhou Xiong is dead."

"Your Majesty, Commander Zhao Qin is dead."

In just a few dozen breaths.

News arrived that twelve Imperial Guard Commander had died in succession.

This caused the Emperor of Dayong's expression to change continuously.

If only an Imperial Guard Commander had died, the Emperor of Dayong would have been furious.

But all twelve Imperial Guard Commander were dead? Emperor of Dayong was filled with fear.

What does this mean?

This means that the Imperial Guard in the Royal Palace are no match for that Pavilion Master Wu, and with the deaths of the twelve Imperial Guard Commander, Pavilion Master Wu will become even more unscrupulous.

How could that be?

Emperor of Dayong found it hard to believe. Just a few months ago, hadn't that Pavilion Master Wu fought tooth and nail with the twelve Imperial Guard Commander?

How come in such a short time, the Imperial Guard Commander?

"Grand Uncle, where is Grand Uncle?"

Emperor of Dayong composed himself, barely managing to calm his emotions, and looked at the old eunuch beside him.

"Your Majesty, our ancestor is guarding the Ancestral Temple."

The old eunuch quickly replied, admitting that he was also feeling quite flustered.

"Ancestral Temple!"

Emperor of Dayong immediately understood his uncle's meaning.

Pavilion Master Wu of the Canglan Pavilion sneaked into the Royal Palace alone without making any preparations.

His great-uncle had reason to suspect that Pavilion Master Wu might be a decoy, used specifically to lure him over.

Was someone else truly responsible for stealing the Shattering Grade Martial Arts Manual?

Was all of this a ploy by Pavilion Master Wu to lure the enemy away from their stronghold?

Therefore, the great-uncle did not rush to surround and kill Pavilion Master Wu, but stayed in the Ancestral Temple.

Ever since the incident where the Former Pavilion Master of Canglan infiltrated the Royal Palace to steal Shattering Grade Martial Arts Manual.

The nine Shattering Grade martial arts manuals in the Royal Palace were all moved to the Ancestral Temple and personally guarded by the grand-uncle, who Super First Grade.

"Where is Pavilion Master Wu now?"

Emperor of Dayong took a deep breath and asked.

He's heading straight for the Ancestral Temple...

The Imperial Guard's voice trembled as he gave the final report.

The deaths of twelve Imperial Guard Commander threw the Imperial Guard into disarray, and even with countless lives sacrificed, they could not stop Su Yuan's advance.

Ancestral Temple...

The Emperor of Dayong looked terrified, "Grand Uncle..."

Emperor of Dayong looked towards the Ancestral Temple. If it were before today, he would have had absolute confidence in his great-uncle. With the numerous Imperial Guard cooperating within the Royal Palace, whoever came would die.

But now?

Emperor of Dayong was filled with deep suspicion.

Could his own Super First Grade grand-uncle really stop that Pavilion Master Wu?

Outside the Royal Palace.

Many Empire Citizen had already gathered around.

"How long do you think Pavilion Master Wu can hold out?"

"At least half an hour. With Pavilion Master Wu's strength, if he wants to suppress them in a short time, the Dayong Royal Palace will inevitably pay a heavy price. Will several Imperial Guard Commander die? Or will that Super First Grade expert be seriously injured?"

"Half an hour? Isn't that underestimating Pavilion Master Wu? After all, he's one of only two Super First Grade in this world..."

"Let's see what Emperor of Dayong decides. Anyway, I don't understand that Pavilion Master Wu's scheme. Does he think he can sneak in unnoticed?"

Many Empire Citizen were watching the show, and it was a fortunate thing to witness the dignified Pavilion Master Wu suffer a setback.

However.

As time goes by.

The expressions of the Empire Citizen who were watching the spectacle gradually changed.

Su Yuan was placed on the Red-Level Wanted Order, meaning that any powerful figure within the Royal Capital could see Su Yuan exact location.

They even knew whether Su Yuan was dead or alive.

Once a person dies, the Red-Level Wanted Order be lifted.

However, in the sight of all the Empire Citizen players, the red dot representing Su Yuan's location did not disappear upon entering the Royal Palace.

Instead, they charged towards the depths of the Royal Palace at an incredibly terrifying speed.

Although many Empire Citizen and Players were unaware that all twelve Imperial Guard Commander had died at the hands of Su Yuan.

However, judging from the speed at which Su Yuan penetrated into the Royal Palace, it became clear that the Imperial Guard inside the Royal Palace probably couldn't stop Pavilion Master Wu at all.

"Holy crap, what happened?"

"Pavilion Master Wu, Pavilion Master Wu has gone berserk in the Royal Palace?"

The players, Empire Citizen, were deeply shocked.

Deep within the Royal Palace.

Blood and severed limbs were everywhere.

Holding Silver Spear, Su Yuan commanded the surrounding Imperial Guard, who trembled with fear and dared not step forward.

Although the Imperial Guard were absolutely loyal to the Great Yong Dynasty and willing to die for it, they were also human beings who knew fear. They feared that their own death would lead to their demise along with the enemy.

They certainly had the courage to do that.

But is it truly possible to perish together with Su Yuan?

Countless Imperial Guard have died at Su Yuan's hands along the way.

But the opponent remained calm, and their attack speed did not slow down in the slightest.

"Arrive."

Su Yuan ignored the thoughts of the imperial Imperial Guard around him and instead looked into the distance.

A magnificent temple appeared there; it was the Ancestral Temple of the Great Yong Dynasty, enshrining the emperors of Dayong the ages.

The Shattering Grade Martial Arts Manual that Su Yuan wanted was inside.
