Forensic Imperial Concubine novel Chapter 681

"Your Highness!" Forsythia quickly rolled her body to stand in front of Harper. A hidden weapon hit her and she instantly fell to the ground. After that, all she could do was watch helplessly as the other hidden weapons moved toward Harper.

Gritting her teeth, Harper had to steel her resolve to bear the pain from the hidden weapons hitting her. Even if she were to be seriously injured, it would still be much better than being dying here. However, a white figure, as fast as lightning, moved in front of Harper to keep her safe. He raised his long sword, much like a swimming dragon, only managing to stave off two hidden weapons, with the other two piercing into the man's body.

The white figure seemed to fall down in slow motion. At that moment, Harper felt as though her mind had been blown up in an instant. Those memories she blocked off and the forgotten past came rushing into her head all at once, almost knocking her senseless, but she could not let herself pass out. In a swift motion, she threw away the dagger in her hand and caught the man who was about to fall.

"Francis!" There was an ache in Harper's voice. Both of the two hidden weapons managed to hit his vital parts. At that moment, she was too scared to check Francis' meridians, in fear of finding out anything which she might not be able to accept.

Seeing that Francis had been critically hit by the hidden weapons and that his life was now hanging by a thread, the secret guards were caught off guard. Wanting to make the most of this opportunity, Diana decided to go straight to Harper to kill her, but the look in Harper's eyes changed in an instant. With the flash of green light, a vine rose from the ground and turned into a sharp sword, dashing towards Diana's vital parts in just the blink of an eye.

Diana had no choice but to retreat, but the vines continued to grow out as sharp swords, severely threatening her life and rendering her incapable of taking even a step closer toward Harper.

When Jason finally arrived with his men, he stumbled upon such a strange scene. Countless vines rose to attack the assassins in black. Any plant that got close to them would turn into a deadly weapon and kill them off.

"Francis!" Looking at injured Francis in Harper's arms, Jason was shocked. It was this call that pulled Harper back to her senses. The growing vines disappeared in an instant, leaving behind a number of lifeless bodies. Thanks to this, Diana found an opportunity to flee.

Taking Francis from Harper's arms, Jason realized that he had been hit by the hidden weapons. His breathing was weak, and it was so bad that he might die at any moment. Jason felt so lightheaded all of a sudden, while Harper stood there motionless, clueless as how she was supposed to react.

"Harper Chu, what on earth are you waiting for?" It was the first time Jason had ever spoken to someone in such a harsh tone.

Harper stared blankly at Jason, as if she didn't understand what he was saying.
