In the Weiwei Office, the elite soldiers of the Zhong family firmly guarded this place. Zhongli stood in front of the Weiwei Office, staring in the direction of Xiyi Palace in the palace, with a look of panic and worry on his face.
Zhongli was afraid of death, and his cultivation level was not high, so he did not dare to face two eighth-level masters. But after all, he had the responsibility of being a guard. In order to avoid punishment in front of Wang Xiao, at this time, he was using his family's mental skills at full speed, and he was concentrating on
Pay attention to the situation in Xiyi Palace.
Suddenly, Zhong Li seemed to have seen something extremely terrifying, and his face became extremely panicked. He couldn't help but take a few steps back, then stumbled and fell to the ground.
The soldiers around him hurriedly stepped forward to help him, but before they could ask, they saw a strange flush on Zhong Li's face, and then he spurted a mouthful of blood from his mouth, and his whole body suddenly became weak.
"Lord!"
"My lord, what's wrong with you?"
A group of soldiers gathered around, with panic on their faces, and asked all kinds of questions.
Zhong Li raised his hand tremblingly and stared in the direction of Xiyi Palace.
The soldiers followed Zhong Li's gaze and couldn't help but look shocked.
In the direction of Xiyi Palace, a sword shot into the sky.
The sword intention stirred up, whipping up a violent wind that raged endlessly. The originally clear night sky was suddenly covered with dark clouds. The sword energy poured down freely and horizontally, like a downpour of rain.
This situation and scene are like a disaster brewed by the power of heaven and earth, which is terrifying.
Needless to say, Zhong Li looks like this now because his internal strength is not strong enough and his cultivation is not enough. Suddenly he saw Xiao Cheng attack with all his strength, and the sword energy of the Six Meridians Divine Sword soared to the sky. He couldn't bear it, and was bitten by the martial arts passed down by his family.
Zhong Li struggled to get up, grabbed the cuffs of the soldiers beside him, and said with a slightly ferocious expression:
"Quickly, send someone to see if anyone from the Taishi Mansion has arrived?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard several war horses neighing from outside, followed by hurried footsteps.
Mr. Tie's face was ashen, he held the iron fan tightly in his hand, and led several people dressed as warriors to come in a hurry.
-----------------------
Outside the Xiyi Palace, the Imperial Army was faced with the rewinding crossbow arrows and the extremely sharp and shocking Shaoshang Sword Qi that arrived in an instant, and they were instantly killed and injured.
They had not been in battle for a long time, and there were guards who had come drunkenly all day long. Compared with the bandits and rabble in the mountains, these forbidden troops were more well-equipped.
Faced with such a sharp and terrifying sword energy, several Forbidden Army generals were so frightened that they turned around and ran away. As soon as the generals ran away, the Forbidden Army soldiers were naturally even more panicked, and many of them bumped into each other like headless flies.
Suddenly, the already loose military formation suddenly became chaotic.
However, not all of the Forbidden Army is such a waste.
When someone saw the army formation collapsed, they immediately stood up and stood up, facing the fierce sword energy that was coming.
This man was holding a long sword, and his seventh-level cultivation level was clearly revealed in the moment he raised his hand.
Facing the incoming sword energy, he kept swinging the long sword in his hand, rigorously, uniquely, simply and directly. There was a dull air between the swings and blocks. It was obvious at a glance that this person was practicing martial arts in the military.
Although his swordsmanship was sluggish, he seemed to be able to face the incoming Shao Shang sword energy with ease. He swung his long sword and blocked them one by one.
Then, the man's body fell. Without waiting for Xiao Cheng, Nan Rongshu continued to come, retreated into the forbidden army, and shouted loudly:
"In this important place in the palace, assassins must not be let go. Anyone who retreats will be punished by the Grand Master! If brothers do not retreat, they will be rewarded!"
Grand Master Wang Xiao has conquered many enemy countries in the past twenty years. Military laws are notoriously strict and there are few people in the army who are not afraid of them.
Hearing that someone stood up to preside over the military formation and was suppressed by military law, the Forbidden Army seemed to have found a backbone and immediately surrounded that person.
"Raise your shield! Raise your shield!" The man roared, stepped forward again, and then rushed directly towards Nan Rongshu.
Nan Rongshu looked at the forbidden soldier, skipped Xiao Cheng, and rushed directly towards her, her brows furrowed involuntarily.
I'm afraid that's not the case. You are treating yourself as a soft persimmon!
Thinking of this, Nan Rongshu's face sank, and he snorted coldly. His figure suddenly stood up, and a shadow appeared, making people's eyes blur. The cold light between his fingers swayed, heading towards the key points of the Forbidden Army.
.
Only a soft "dang" sound was heard, and the long sword suddenly stood up, blocking Nan Rongshu's figure that was too fast to be seen clearly.
Nan Rongshu frowned, twisted her waist, retreated suddenly, and then attacked again.
The forbidden soldier stood on the spot with a solemn face, unmoved by the illusory figures that kept passing by. The long sword waved, covering his whole body, and the water could not splash in.
No matter how fast Nan Rongshu moved, every time she made a move, she was blocked. She even deliberately exposed her flaws several times in order to attract this person to attack, but the person was always unmoved and cautious to the point of rigidity.
situation.
Xiao Cheng stood aside and saw Nan Rongshu struggling for a long time. When he stepped down, his figure floated over and joined the battle.
The Forbidden Army in front of them has only seventh-level cultivation, and although there are few masters, it is obviously not enough to face two eighth-level warriors.
But he remained calm and calm, his face still solemn. He waved the long sword in his hand, or stabbed the sword to break the invisible energy coming towards him, or thrust out a sword horizontally to block the rapid cold blow coming towards his vitals.
Mang.
In this way, he actually dragged down two eighth-level warriors with his seventh-level power.
And just as the three of them were fighting together, a forbidden soldier hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth, and picked up the iron shield that was thrown on the ground.
Seeing someone taking the lead, a few more courageous Imperial Guards who wanted to stand out picked up their shields and formed their military formation again.
Upon seeing this, the remaining soldiers of the Forbidden Army also gathered together and once again formed a loose military formation.
Xiao Cheng's eyes moved slightly, he glanced at the group of forbidden soldiers who had regrouped, and said:
"Let's go, we can't delay it any longer!"
Just as Nan Rongshu was about to attack the Imperial Guard again, when she heard what Xiao Cheng said, she glanced at the Imperial Guard who had reorganized their formation beside her, and said rather unwillingly:
"Okay, let's go!"
After saying that, the two of them were about to retreat. Seeing this, the forbidden soldier stepped forward and moved his long sword. The sword light was dense, as if he wanted to keep the two of them behind.
Without saying a word, Xiao Cheng stretched out his right thumb, Shao Shang's sword energy burst out, and with an invisible force, he slammed into the imperial army with an earth-shattering force.
Facing such a majestic sword energy, the forbidden soldier did not dare to be careless, so he had no choice but to retreat. His long sword was held horizontally in front of him, and his internal energy was poured into the long sword, which violently collided with this invisible sword energy.
There was only a crisp "clang" sound, and the long sword in the hand of the imperial guard broke.
This long sword is only a standard long sword with ordinary materials. For being able to survive to this point today, the military craftsmen who made this long sword are already worthy of praise.
The long sword in this forbidden soldier's hand broke and he had to retreat.
By the time he picked up another long sword from the ground, Xiao Cheng and his two figures had already disappeared into the distance. The Imperial Guard looked unwilling and shouted:
"Brothers, never let the assassin go, follow me!"
Xiao Cheng, who was already far away, looked back at this moment. In the line of sight that ordinary people could not see, white light shone above the head of the forbidden soldier.
