Translator:?EndlessFantasy Translation?Editor:?EndlessFantasy Translation

Bai Mou’s shocked and surprised voice could be heard coming from outside the palanquin. It seemed like she was fighting the enemy and was shocked by their strength. “Who are you? Don’t think I can’t find out who you are when you have hidden your martial technique! No matter how powerful your background is, death is the only consequence you have to face for assassinating the prince!”

Suddenly, she shouted anxiously, “Your Highness, look out!”

An extremely strong force fell from the sky, smashing onto the palanquin like a meteorite. In the blink of an eye, rings of light burst out of the palanquin, and countless complicated array lines flashed one by one across its surface—they were all defensive arrays with the ability of reflection.

Bam!

Although Qin Yue’s palanquin was tough, it was still blown apart by that force. It was completely shattered, and the fragments shot away in all directions. Meanwhile, the force did not reduce at all as it continued to smash down after shattering the palanquin!

Bam!

Four figures flew out of the palanquin to both sides. As a result, the attack missed the target and only left a large crater in the place where the palanquin was originally located.

In the distance, Bai Mou breathed a sigh of relief as she forced her opponent back with a palm strike, then ran toward Qin Yue.

She examined Qin Yue, and after finding that he had received no injury other than a footprint on his chest, she turned to Yunxiao and shouted, “Li Yunxiao, how could you kick His Highness away to save the two maids?”

Holding a beauty in each hand, Yunxiao landed in the distance and put down the two maids who were completely horror-struck, before saying with a smile, “I only have two hands, and I can only pick up the beauties instinctively when the situation is urgent. Isn’t Prince Qin Yue unhurt?”

“You!” Bai Mou was fuming with anger. She was about to scold further when Qin Yue grabbed her.

“Young Master Yun is a kind man, so it’s only right for him to save the girls first when facing danger. Now, we better think about how to escape.”

All the guards Qin Yue brought with him had been killed, many of whom were Martial Masters. Although the enemies also suffered many casualties, two men with unfathomable strength were unscathed. They were now staring coldly at Qin Yue, approaching step by step.

A trace of anger flashed in Bai Mou’s eyes as she shouted, “Don’t think that I don’t know who you are. You deliberately hide your body shape, use the bone-shrinking skill to alter your appearances, and also use agile and light martial techniques. In this way, although you can’t defeat me, you can hide your true identity, and your task is just to hold me back.”

She gradually calmed down. “But, the most important part of your mission is to let Ji Meng kill His Highness. Am I right, Gao Feng!”

After listening to what she said, the masked man tore off the mask covering his face, revealing a cold face with a towering murderous look in the eyes. His aura was released in an instant, causing his black coat to split into countless cloth strips and scatter all over the ground. At the same time, his short and thin body began to swell, growing more than a foot taller and muscular in the blink of an eye.

The other man also tore off his mask and stood coldly beside Gao Feng.

Bai Mou’s heart went cold. Of the two men, one was a Martial Lord of the Four Quadrants realm and the other was a Great Martial Master of the Three Powers realm. It seemed that they were in grave danger today. She said angrily, “Gao Feng, as the First Unit’s commander of the State Guardians, how could you support Prince Qin Yang? Have you ever thought about what His Majesty and Commander Xiao will do to you when they find about this?”

Expressionless, Gao Feng said coldly, “Didn’t you also choose to support Prince Qin Yue, Commander Bai? It seems that you are more involved in the struggle for the throne between two princes.”

“I was ordered by His Majesty to protect Prince Qin Yue. What about you? Does His Majesty know about your mission today? Does Commander Xiao know?”

“It’s no use talking about it. Since I’ve already struck, I’m going to complete the mission! All of you will die today!” He turned to Ji Meng and said, “Go kill Prince Qin Yue! And kill that little boy from the Li Family and the two maids as well! Make it quick, and then come and help me kill Bai Mou!”

Bai Mou and him were both Martial Lords. Although his strength was better than hers, it was not easy for him to kill her in a short while.

A cold gleam flashed through Ji Meng’s eyes as he nodded, “Yes!”

He then leaped out and threw a palm toward Qin Yue’s forehead. Although the prince was also a warrior, he could not be Ji Meng’s match. Bai Mou was startled, and was about to rescue Qin Yue when she felt a mountain-like force coming toward her and aiming at her vital parts!

Qin Yue’s face flickered. Although he was a little frightened, he took out a small flag unhurriedly and poured his Primordial Qi into it.

A bright blue light and a strong aura burst out of the small flag at the same time. He casually threw it out, and the flag immediately grew larger as its butt thrust into the ground. In the blink of an eye, a half-man-high blue flag stood beside the prince, and then a complicated array emerged under his feet.

Just then, the palm strike which Ji Meng had thrown out with one hundred percent of his strength as a Great Martial Master came crashing down. However, it was blocked and repelled by the blue light emitted from the array!

Ji Meng’s pupils constricted as a huge counterforce rushed up through his arm and into his body. Greatly shocked, he quickly suppressed the force, but his internal organs had already shaken by it, causing him to cough up a mouthful of blood. He rolled several times in the air before landing, and then took a few steps back to steady himself.

Yunxiao’s eyes lit up in the distance as he murmured in surprise, “Sanskrit Sea and Cloud Flag…”

Bai Mou was greatly relieved when she saw Qin Yue take out the flag. “Gao Feng, you should recognize this flag, shouldn’t you?” she cried out in a deep voice. “Without the strength of a Martial King, it cannot be broken at all! So, get the hell out of here now!”

Gao Feng’s expression also changed dramatically. “Ji Meng, kill that boy from the Li Family and the two maids first, and then come here and assist me in killing Bai Mou. This is the Sanskrit Sea and Cloud Flag made by Yang Di for his beloved woman, but it was unfortunately not used by her and obtained by His Majesty instead. I didn’t expect His Majesty to give it to Prince Qin Yue. It’s true that it can only be broken with the strength of a Martial King, but this flag here is merely the defective product from Yang Di’s first refinement. It can only last for one hour at most. We will kill Prince Qin Yue after one hour!”

Hearing this, Bai Mou was very panicked. She did not expect Gao Feng to find out that this flag was defective. “Li Yunxiao, run and go get help!” She shouted hastily.

Ji Meng’s figure moved, and he was near Yunxiao in the next moment, slapping him with a palm. “A mere warrior trying to escape from me? Is it possible?”

Bai Mou’s heart sank as Ji Meng threw out his palm. She knew Yunxiao was finished, and now she could only rely on herself. She had been distracted from her own fight, and had been in danger several times. But now, she no longer pinned any hopes on anyone and began to focus on her battle, fighting while retreating and hoping to find a chance to get away.

Gao Feng naturally knew her plan, and of course he would not let her have it. He moved as close as possible to her and showered her with attacks; he did not try to kill her, but only to delay her. Once Ji Meng killed that boy, the two of them could kill her together!

The more Bai Mou fought, the more anxious she became. She was already weaker than Gao Feng to begin with. Now, no matter how she changed her moves, he just kept pestering her like her own shadow, and she could not get rid of him. Gao Feng was a violent-type warrior, but he was fighting more and more gently now, dragging things out.

Suddenly, a look of dismay flashed through Gao Feng’s eyes, and he was angry why Ji Meng had not come to help him. But, when he took a sideways glance, he instantly froze.

He saw Yunxiao moving with a mysterious set of steps like a butterfly dancing among the flowers, and none of the attacks from Ji Meng could touch even his clothes. Ji Meng, on the other hand, appeared in a sorry state as he kept attacking crazily in exasperation.

“What’s going on, Ji Meng? Kill him quickly!” Gao Feng roared. “Can’t you even get rid of a four-stars warrior? What’s wrong with you?”

Ji Meng was furious with embarrassment. His opponent’s strength was not strong, but his footwork was unheard of. Each step was not only extremely tricky in position, but also unpredictable. Moreover, it seemed to contain the rule of space, giving him a feeling that this boy was constantly swapping his positions and crossing in the air.

Bai Mou’s eyes lit up as she shouted, “Li Yunxiao, don’t fight with him! Hurry up and find someone to save us! Go to Commander Xiao’s residence!”

Shocked, Gao Feng hurriedly bellowed, “Ji Meng, use a martial technique that covers a wide area! No matter how genius his footwork is, as long as he is within the range of your attack, he cannot avoid it!”

Ji Meng was also a little confused by Yunxiao’s footwork. Upon hearing this, he immediately came back to his senses. The slender soft sword in his hand suddenly flicked out dots of bright light which transformed into rings of light, large and small, covering the area within ten meters of Yunxiao’s body.

No matter how magical Yunxiao’s footwork was, he could not cross a distance of more than ten meters in an instant and then escape…or so Ji Meng thought.

Bai Mou was extremely worried, and she thought to herself that it was really over for Yunxiao.

But at this moment, everyone heard Yunxiao burst out laughing. “What a peach blossom sword intent. Gone totally mad, willow catkins depart with the wind…careless loves, peach blossoms follow the water’s current. Your sword intent has the feeling of peach blossom, but it has no meaning of the running water.”

Puke!

All four people present vomited blood with anger. At this critical juncture when he was about to be killed, Yunxiao was still in the mood to tease? Bai Mou was also dizzy with rage, thinking that Yunxiao deserved to be killed!

Ji Meng’s heart moved, as if he had a slight enlightenment. But, his face was still sneering. “After I have stabbed you with a sword, won’t your life turn into running water?”

Yunxiao smiled gently as he lifted his sword, Black Girl. Suddenly, several white rings of light emerged in the air, different in sizes and flashing unceasingly. They bloomed into tens of thousands of peach flowers, all of which were heading toward the sword figures that blotted the sky.

“Watch this, boy! This is the real peach blossom sword intent! As for how much can you comprehend, it depends on your luck.

“In the Peach Blossom Land there is a peach blossom plot;

A peach blossom lover lives in Peach Blossom Cot.

The peach blossom lover plants peach trees in days fine;

He sells his peach blossoms for money to buy wine!”

Suddenly, thousands of pink dots were silently scattered from the sword, like the wind and rain, stars all over the sky, and the dust between the heaven and earth.

Yunxiao’s eyebrows relaxed and his eyes smiled. It seemed like he had turned into a peach tree at this moment; his figure had disappeared, leaving only his white clothes and the peach blossoms.

Ji Meng froze, and so did Prince Qin Yue, who was protected by the flag. Even Gao Feng and Bai Mou halted their battle momentarily and looked incredulously at Yunxiao’s sword figures that covered the whole sky.

“Peach blossom sword intent…This is the real peach blossom sword intent…” Ji Meng muttered to himself as he suddenly had an impulse to cry and kneel. He had been practicing this sword intent for more than thirty years, and even planted peach trees in his home, studying them for several hours a day. However, it was like a piece of rubbish compared with Yunxiao’s, his sword intent!

The shadows of flowers all over the sky were the real peach blossoms. And his sword strike just now was simply the mud beneath the peach tree!
