The Ultimate Husband (Darryl and Lily Lyndon) novel Chapter 1740

Hiss!

Everyone gasped!

That was Grandmaster Erlang’s real strength! Those who wanted to stand up and speak for Chang Er held their breath fearfully.

“Lady Chang Er, I—”

E Lai looked miserable; he gaped at Chang Er. He had failed as a personal guard to keep the Empress safe—he was incompetent. The more E Lai thought about it, the angrier he got. The bad emotion was not good for him. He fainted as everything around him turned dark.

“Yang Jian!”

Chang Er’s pretty face turned somber as she scolded Yang Jian. “How dare you do that to E Lai! Do you still respect me? Well, you want to imprison me for your investigation, right? Let’s see if you have the ability to do that!”

Crack!

A sword appeared in Chang Er’s hand, accompanied by a crisp sound.

The sword had a brilliant luster. Its blade was about one meter and one inch long, and it dazzled like the stars and moon.

It was Chang Er’s personal weapon—Star and Moon Sword!

That weapon’s primary material was rumored to be a rare meteorite that appeared when the world was first formed. Emperor Hou Yi stumbled upon it and used it to make a sword for Chang Er. When Chang Er first got the sword, she liked it very much. She waved it around on the spot, and it was like how the moonlight shone onto the earth. That was how Chang Er got her name as the Moon Palace Fairy.

As soon as she drew her sword, the spiritual power in the entire room suddenly converged!

Damn it!

Darryl shook as he felt the powerful aura that emanated from the Star and Moon Sword; he was extremely shocked.

Chuck!

Chang Er leapt up and then aimed a stab at Yang Jian without any hesitation!

Whoa!

Chang Er used all of her strength in that sword attack; I was also driven by the immense grief and anger in her heart. Emperor Hou Yi had just died, and she was still grieving. How could she tolerate Yang Jian’s accusation of her?

The air distorted wherever the sword went!

Ugh!

Yang Jian sighed lightly without panic. He stood there as steady as Mount Tai while his gaze followed Chang Er’s sword!

“Lady Chang Er, I’m doing this to investigate the Emperor’s death. I have no choice but to offend you since you’re not ready to cooperate with me!”

That was not a surprise. Chang Er had lived a good life as a pampered Empress for thousands of years since she married Emperor Hou Yi. Over the years, she had slacked in her cultivation under Emperor Hou Yi’s protection.

Yang Jian, on the other hand, had been working hard for nearly a thousand years. Hence, he had long surpassed Chang Er in strength.

Yang Jian did not want to continue with the fight. He flipped his hand and sent a palm attack at Chang Er when he noticed she had lost her focus!

His palm attack was so fast that Chang Er could not avoid it. She could only use her internal energy to greet Yang Jian’s palm with her own!

Boom!

The two palms created a dull vibration. Chang Er retreated several steps backward; her beautiful face looked surprised and embarrassed!

Then, Yang Jian dashed forward and quickly raised his hand to tap twice on Chang Er’s acupoints.

Suddenly, Chang Er stiffened; she could not move an inch.

“Take her down!”

Yang Jian gave the command without any hesitation.

A few royal guards came and took Chang Er out of the room. The guards were loyal to Yang Jian, and they only obeyed him!
