Chapter 680 Do You Want Him To Die (Part One)


    Harper quietly watched the fight like a random outsider, and even talked with Forsythia from time to


    time,menting on how the fight was going.


    "Francis has been sick for many years. I never would have expected that even when he fights, it would


    be so pleasing to the eye. No wonder everyone keeps saying that he is so handsome." Harper couldn''t


    help but exim. It cropped up in her mind that when Matthew fought, he seemed so cruel that she


    didn''t really have the heart to watch. As the sword shed, the head of the enemy had been cleanly cut


    off and his blood had been spilled all over the ce. In Francis'' case, he seemed as ethereal as the


    wind, winding like a dragon as he fought. At that moment, he was so dashing and handsome.


    When she heard Harper''s remarks, Forsythia carefully observed Francis'' every move. It was indeed


    beautiful to watch, but Forsythia said with such disdain, "It is just pleasing to the eye, but not practical.


    In contrast to this, His Highness is really awesome. His martial arts is unbeatable, and no one can


    possibly hold a candle to him."


    Hearing this, Harper pinched Forsythia''s cheek. Due to the pain, thetter grimaced. However, the


    smile on Harper''s face suddenly disappeared and she loosened her grip on Forsythia''s cheek. "It looks


    like we''re in trouble."


    Another group of assassins appeared out of the blue and went straight toward Harper. Obviously, the


    two groups of assassins were from different parties. One group was trying to kill Francis, while the


    other was trying to get rid of Harper.


    "Stay behind me, Your Highness," Forsythia said, pointing her sword at the assassins as they went all-


    out, thrusting their swords to hit Harper''s vital organs. Although Forsythia was fluent in martial arts,


    protecting Harper from so many assassins was not an easy task.


    "Are the secret guards nearby?" asked Harper slowly.


    With that, four men appeared in an instant, surrounding Harper and preventing any assassins from


    getting close to her. Raising her eyebrows, Harper checked on Francis.


    Seeing that another group of assassins were targeting at Harper, Francis was a bit uneasy. But as soon


    as he saw Harper called out the secret guards, he felt so relieved that he was able to concentrate on


    dealing with the assassinsing after him.


    "Judging from the way they move, they are most likely from the South Kingdom," Harper said as she


    squinted her eyes. "I see. So, Diana is in the imperial capital."


    This left the assassins who wereing for Harper so dumbfounded that they became pale-faced.


    Then, they all began to attack her even more desperately. Harper quickly took out a signal re from


    her arms, pointed it toward the sky, and said, "I think your goal is to take over the Repenting Tower and


    save Hoffman, but you guys won''t seed!"


    Never could''ve Diana expected that Harper would recognize that the assassins were from the South


    Kingdom merely by the way they moved. Because of that, her aim was easily exposed. Now that it was


    clear that she wouldn''t be able to go to the Imperial Pce to save Hoffman, she made up her mind to


    just kill Harper anyway!


    So, Diana pulled out a ck handkerchief to cover her face, and jumped into the fray. Since her identity


    had already been exposed, she had no reason to hold back anymore. Harper might not be afraid of the


    venomous insect poison, but the same thing couldn''t be said for the others. As long as she could


    poison her guards, she was not afraid of failing to capture Harper.


    After Diana joined the battle, she wasted no time and cunningly used the venomous insect poison right


    away. The guards were skilled in martial arts, but they were powerless in the face of the poison.


    Squinting her eyes, Harper suddenly pulled out a dagger and cut her palm. The vibrant crimson blood


    flowed out in an instant. With a wave of her wrist, the blood sshed toward the assassins.


    "Avoid being stained by her blood at all costs!" But it was already toote. Many assassins hade


    into contact with Harper''s blood, and the venomous insect poison had been rendered useless. Despite


    her resentment, Diana wouldn''t give up so easily. Even though she could no longer use the poison, she


    would still put an end to Harper''s life today. There was no way in hell that she would let go of such a


    once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!


    On the other side, the assassinsing after Francis were about to be annihted, so Francis


    immediately came to support Harper. The remaining assassins who were attacking him also seemed to


    be unable to fend for themselves. In the end, the two groups of assassins blended together and


    couldn''t even tell who belonged to which group anymore.


    "Just try to hold on for a little longer; the reinforcements will be here very soon." Francis stopped Diana


    from approaching Harper, as she calmly watched the battle while holding a dagger in her hand.


    Although nobody was able to get close to Harper, everyone on her side was entangled by the enemies.


    In this bloody battlefield, Harper was probably the only one who didn''t have her hands full.


    "Humph! You all tried to torment me while my husband wasn''t around." Harper shook her head in


    disappointment. As soon as Matthew left, someone immediately took advantage of his absence and


    tried to kill her. Given everything that was happening, she started missing Matthew. At the thought of


    him having to leave the imperial capital for a long time, she felt so down in the dumps.


    Although Francis was caught up in a fight with Diana, he still kept an eye on Harper. He thought that


    she would be fine, but it seemed that she knew nothing about martial arts at all. Apart from that, as


    Jason said, she now looked very different from what she used to be in the past!


    Then, something totally unexpected happened. Just as everyone was busy trying to fend off the


    assassins, a hidden weapon appeared out of the blue and came straight toward Harper. In the air, the


    weapon divided into three parts and looked quite dangerous as they directly targeted Harper''s vital


    parts.


    "Your Highness!"


    "Harper!"


    Harper couldn''t help but frown. Of course, she had already figured out the best way to avoid getting hit.


    Three hidden weapons, vicious as they might seem, were rtively easy to avoid. But, much to her


    surprise, they further split into nine weapons as they got closer and closer to Harper!


    "Nine Consecutive Hidden Weapons!" Harper continued to step back in a hurry. It was nearly


    impossible for her to avoid the nine hidden weapons, let alone avoid getting hit in her vital parts. Seeing


    this, all the secret guards stopped fighting with the assassins and rushed to save Harper as fast as they


    could. By doing so, they exposed their back to the enemy and put their lives at risk, but even then, they


    only managed to ward off the power of four hidden weapons, while the other five were still charging


    straight at Harper.Original from N?velDrama.Org.
