Chương 556: Stealing The Banner, Stealing Power, Stealing Heart

The city guarding crossbow bolt was like a short spear. It pierced through the bodies of the person and horse before being deeply embedded in the gaps between the pavements in the square. The metal arrow, which was as thick as a child's arm, vibrated endlessly and gave off a buzzing sound. Blood flowed out freely from the body of the rider pinned underneath the arrow.

Many people realized what had happened, including the rebel soldiers and imperial soldiers on the palace walls. Tens of thousands of people stared dumbstruck at this sight and didn't dare to believe their eyes. Such a large crossbow bolt had pierced through the rider's body. It was like a punishment from heaven or hammer that fell down from beyond the clouds.

Deathly silence and icy fear spread out through the square.
