At this critical moment, Ling Xiao's chest actually caved in. At the same time, Ling Xiao's left palm was like a knife, cutting the old woman's wrist, while his right fist burst out with unparalleled power and blasted out suddenly!
boom!
The old woman's knife missed, and at the same time her palm was chopped off by Ling Xiao. There was a dull bang, and the old woman retreated like a piece of paper.
boom!
Ling Xiao’s punch hit the void, making a loud bang!
"court death!"
There was an extremely cold light in Ling Xiao's eyes. He rushed forward, and powerful energy and blood burst out from his body. Dozens of invisible energy swords shot out, blocking the old woman's way to escape.
If Ling Xiao hadn't reacted quickly just now, he would have died at the hands of the old woman.
The repeated assassinations by the underworld finally made Ling Xiao furious!
"kill!"
Ling Xiao threw a punch, and a vast fist force burst out, stirring in all directions and covering the old woman in the fist force.
whoosh whoosh whoosh!
Among the crowd around, several figures rushed over like ghosts, holding common weapons, and attacked Ling Xiao.
It was not until this time that everyone reacted. They screamed in fear and started running away.
"Oh no, enemy attack!"
"There's an assassin!"
"Protect the princess!"
The eyes of the female warriors in the Suzaku Camp flashed and they shouted loudly.
One team of female warriors protected the chariot, while another team of female warriors, holding spears, stabbed at the assassins who were rushing over with incredible speed.
Ding ding dong!
The old woman's eyes were cold, and the dagger in her hand moved extremely quickly, blocking dozens of invisible air swords one by one, and making a sound of metal clashing.
Ling Xiao threw a punch that was extremely masculine and powerful, unmatched, and the old woman's body spun in the air like a top, dissipating the power of Ling Xiao's punch, and her whole body floated like a snowflake.
"Kill her!"
Many gate guards also changed their expressions greatly. Someone actually dared to assassinate the little princess in the royal capital. If anything happened to the little princess, none of them would be able to escape.
The old woman's aura was exactly the same as those of the assassins who rushed out, so they made a decision instantly and, led by a burly young general wearing red armor, rushed towards the old woman.
Seeing the Suzaku Camp and the city guards going into battle, Ling Xiao stopped and stood aside to watch.
There were flashes of swords and fierce fighting. These guards were all veterans, well-trained. They attacked at the same time, and with the surging true energy, they instantly enveloped the old woman.
"court death!"
The old woman was angry and uttered a hoarse voice. She moved as fast as lightning, and the dagger in her hand quickly cut across the necks of several guards, and blood splattered.
when!
The young general's eyes turned red, and he chopped down with his sword. With his powerful innate energy, he had actually reached the Dragon-Tiger Realm.
But the old woman raised the dagger in her hand, and a black divine light burst out and touched the young general's long sword. Suddenly, the young general was struck by lightning and retreated several steps.
Bang bang bang!
Several other assassins who wanted to rush towards Ling Xiao were also surrounded by the female warriors of the Suzaku Camp, and a fierce battle broke out.
However, although these female warriors were numerous and good at cooperation, they were facing masters who were at least in the Dragon and Tiger Realm, so danger immediately arose in the fierce battle.
Just as an assassin's sword came across the sky and was about to pierce the throat of a female warrior, an old voice exploded in the void.
"court death!"
Next to the carriage, there was an old man who was originally driving the carriage. He looked very inconspicuous, but at this moment, there was a flash of lightning in his eyes.
A huge hand full of true energy came from nowhere, extremely hot, emitting blazing flames, and grabbed towards the assassin.
boom!
The assassin had no power to resist, and his body instantly turned into bloody mist in the void.
The huge hand of true energy swept across, and all the assassins were killed without a single blow.
"The Heaven Realm?"
Ling Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly. Xia Hongxiu probably didn't have that much energy to let a strong man in the Heaven and Human Realm drive for her.
Then there is only the other woman. Who is that woman
"What?"
The old woman's eyes changed drastically. Seeing the huge hand of true energy coming towards her, her whole body flashed and turned into countless afterimages in the void, and she quickly fled into the distance.
"Stay with me!"
An old and indifferent voice sounded, and the huge hand of true energy exploded. The blazing light turned into a sea of fire, covering all the afterimages.
The sea of fire rose, vast and scorching. A scream was heard, and the old woman was instantly burned to ashes.
when!
There was a crisp sound, and a golden token fell to the ground.
whoosh!
A powerful suction force came, and the golden token instantly flew into the old man's hands.
"The Saint is the golden assassin of the underworld!"
The old man's breath was restrained, and he returned to his lazy and casual state. In his old and turbid eyes, there was a faint gleam of brilliance.
His voice was very low, but Ling Xiao's mental strength was very strong, so he heard his words.
"Saintess? Could it be the Saintess of the Sun, Moon and Star Sect? This is really interesting!"
Ling Xiao's eyes flashed, and he thought secretly in his heart.
"I am Wang Biao, your subordinate, here to see Her Royal Highness the Princess. I was disturbed by an assassin. I will die!"
The young general fell to his knees in front of the carriage with a look of panic on his face.
Today, someone actually dared to assassinate Her Royal Highness the Princess' carriage. Fortunately, Her Royal Highness the Princess was fine, otherwise he would have been doomed.
He hated these assassins in his heart. They deserved to be assassinated when he was on duty.
"Take the bodies of these assassins away. You don't have to worry about this matter. I will handle it myself!"
A clear female voice came from the carriage, the curtains fluttered, and a graceful figure could be seen faintly.
"yes!"
When Wang Biao saw that the little princess did not pursue his responsibility, he immediately felt relieved. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and ordered his men to clean up the bodies of the assassins.
"Strange, those assassins clearly came to assassinate me. Even if ordinary people don't know, the people in the carriage should know clearly. Why didn't Xia Hongxiu even question me? Could it be that he recognized me?"
Ling Xiao's eyes flickered, and he was guessing secretly in his heart.
He had originally wanted an excuse to deal with Xia Hongxiu's questioning, but he didn't expect Xia Hongxiu to reveal it so lightly and even help him cover it up.
As for Ling Xiao's attack just now, although it shocked everyone, everyone just regarded him as a young knight with extraordinary cultivation, who helped others when he saw injustice. No one connected those assassins with him.
“How strange!”
Ling Xiao was a little confused and his eyes fell on the carriage.
The stopped carriage started moving again, and under the protection of the Suzaku Camp, it slowly headed towards the city.
The carriage passed in front of Ling Xiao, with necklaces fluttering, curtains dancing, and wisps of young girl's faint fragrance in the air. Ling Xiao felt as if there were two pairs of eyes staring at him from inside the carriage.
