Peach Blossom Divine Medical God Chapter 2320 - 2276: The Crown Prince of This Dynasty?

Afterwards, his original appearance changed rapidly.

In just a moment, he transformed from the face of a middle-aged man into the appearance of an old man nearing eighty.

Though aged, the vigor in his eyes and the spirit between his brows were still abundant.

It was obvious at a glance that he was powerful, and his energy was still vigorous.

"Face-changing technique... so miraculous... I’d only heard of it before, never thought I’d see it today," Tu Qi exclaimed in surprise upon witnessing the scene.

"..."

Chen Yang was speechless. It was a critical moment, how could this guy still be focusing on such things?

"Big brother, you’d better think about how we can get out of here, we’re surrounded," Chen Yang couldn’t help but comment.

Hearing Chen Yang’s words, Tu Qi finally snapped back to reality.

Indeed.

They were surrounded.

And the people around them were all of deep prowess.

Nearly all at the late-stage Condensation, and the one called Gongsun Ji had even demonstrated the mighty strength of the Infant Transformation Realm.

In such a situation, they were indeed in grave danger.

They might not leave alive.

"Not letting me take him? Well, let’s see if Tutor Wang, you have the skill," Gongsun Ji’s voice suddenly turned cold, filled with killing intent.

Though Tutor Wang was verbally strong, his face was covered with anxiety.

Clearly, he too felt immense pressure facing such circumstances.

"Crown Prince, I’ll hold him off with all I have, you find an opportunity to break through. As long as you see His Majesty, the Dajing Dynasty can still be saved," Tutor Wang nervously said, shielding the unkempt youth, who was the Crown Prince of the Dajing Dynasty, behind him.

"Tutor... what about you?" The Crown Prince’s face was also very distressed.

He initially thought that the plan to disguise and infiltrate the capital was flawless, but it was exposed so easily...

"Hmph, this old official will fight him. If by luck I don’t die, maybe I’ll see you again, Crown Prince," Tutor Wang gritted his teeth and said.

"This..." The Crown Prince was in a predicament.

"There’s no time to hesitate, this is the only way. Crown Prince, the future of the Dajing Dynasty rests on your shoulders, you cannot afford to be soft-hearted now," said Tutor Wang, growing anxious at the Crown Prince’s indecision.

"Hahaha, Tutor Wang, Crown Prince, I think you two should not waste your strength. With so many of us, how will you escape? Just come back to the capital with us obediently, the Python King has been waiting for you for a long time," Gongsun Ji laughed loudly at their dialogue.

He found it utterly laughable.

The Crown Prince, unable to restrain himself any longer, stepped forward, pointed at Gongsun Ji, and shouted, "Gongsun Ji, my father treated you well, why would you and my uncle do such rebellious and treasonous things!"

"Rebellion?" Gongsun Ji sneered, "The Python King is a hero of the era, supporting the country and stabilizing the world, how is it rebellion."

"It’s the Crown Prince being used by villains, unable to discern right from wrong, stubbornly contending with the Python King. His Majesty knows of this and is very distressed, assigning me here to bring you back to the capital."

"I hope Crown Prince will not make it difficult for me and follow me back to the capital obediently."

Though Gongsun Ji was but a military man, he was eloquent, reversing right and wrong without a change in expression.

The Python King had seized control of the government, taken charge of the capital during the old emperor’s illness, and prevented the Crown Prince from returning to the capital.

This was known by all under the heavens.

Yet he twisted it, portraying the Python King as a great hero.

"Such shamelessness," the Crown Prince gritted his teeth, seething with indignation.

"Crown Prince, this is my final inquiry: Will you return to the capital with me?" Gongsun Ji seemed to have lost patience, his attitude suddenly hardening.

"In your dreams," the Crown Prince replied firmly, directly refusing.

"Well, in that case, forgive my offense," Gongsun Ji’s words fell, and he once again charged at the Crown Prince.

"Crown Prince, hurry, I’ll hold him for you," Tutor Wang saw this and immediately rushed forward to stop him.

His Infant Transformation Realm power erupted forcefully.

He immediately engaged in battle with Gongsun Ji.

Simultaneously, the thirty or so subordinates of Gongsun Ji began to encircle and attack.

There was no way out. Chen Yang and Tu Qi originally didn’t want to get involved in such matters.

But they were already ensnared.

The subordinates of the Python King would consider them traitors allied with the Crown Prince anyway.

If they did not resist, there was only death.

Might as well resist, there might be a slim chance.

The melee erupted, dozens battling together, the scene was extremely chaotic.

"Brother Chen Yang, what do we do now?" Tu Qi looked tense, at a loss.

"Stay close to me, find a chance to break out," Chen Yang gritted his teeth.

"Alright."

Tu Qi responded, then the two men, back to back, furiously battled together.

The people Gongsun Ji brought were not only powerful but also had formidable combat experience and prowess, very tough to deal with.

While Chen Yang’s mighty combat strength was effective in one-on-one combat,

facing multiple enemies, he could barely defend, unable to carve a path of blood to escape.

The battle raged on for a while.

The boss and a few escorts were quickly subdued, unable to withstand it.

However, they were not killed.

In the field, only the Crown Prince, along with Chen Yang and Tu Qi, remained resisting.

Facing thirty foes, such a disparity in power was immense.

Even worse, Tutor Wang was also gradually losing ground.

Tutor Wang’s realm was high, but having aged, his reaction and endurance capabilities could not match Gongsun Ji.

He was already bleeding from several places.

Though not severe, they were adding up, and soon he might succumb.

"Crown Prince, break out, don’t worry about me," Tutor Wang anxiously shouted.

"Tutor, how can I leave you behind? Let’s break out together," the Crown Prince roared, fiercely wielding his sword.

"Crown Prince! Don’t worry about me! Avoiding capture by the Python King is of utmost importance, go now," Tutor Wang roared.

Already at a disadvantage, distracted by talking to the Crown Prince, Gongsun Ji seized the moment and struck Tutor Wang’s chest with his palm.

With a sound, Tutor Wang spat a mouthful of blood.

His body flew backward.

"Tutor!!!"

The Crown Prince cried out, eyes brimming with fury.

"Crown Prince, stay here," having knocked Tutor Wang away, Gongsun Ji immediately attacked the Crown Prince.

The eagle claw move was not just to capture the Crown Prince.

It was also intended to kill him.

At this critical juncture, Tutor Wang endured his wounds desperately, once again rushing up, channeling his entire strength.

He blocked the strike for the Crown Prince once more.

However, it was evident that Tutor Wang was at the end of his strength, how could he be Gongsun Ji’s opponent?

In a direct clash, Tutor Wang was sent flying horizontally.

"Crown Prince, pardon my offense," Gongsun Ji wickedly laughed, his eagle claw again reaching for the Crown Prince.

The Crown Prince, merely at the late-stage Condensation, was powerless against the Infant Transformation Realm.

With a squelching sound,

a bloody hole was carved into his body.

Blood gushed endlessly...
