In front of the secret passage, the moment Lord Wen saw the girl, he had already reached out and grabbed the hilt of his sword.
“What are the chances of winning?” the Grand Scholar asked softly. Lord Wen narrowed his eyes and stared at the girl who was only about 1.1 meters tall- He shook his head. indicating that he was not sure-
This girl gave him a very terrifying feeling.
The Grand Scholar didn’t waste any time. He raised his hand and slapped at a mechanism on the wall. However, as soon as his hand moved, he felt his heart move. His eyes couldn’t help but look at the girl in front of the threshold. With this look, the hand that was hitting at the mechanism stopped.
Hu Xian Er’s eyes were like silk as she asked,”Sir, am I beautiful?”
The Grand Scholar’s heart began to beat wildly, and his eyes were filled with confusion. He lost his mind and began to walk toward Hu Xian ‘er uncontrollably.
Patter, patter, patter …
A gust of demonic wind suddenly blew, and the candles in the house were extinguished. Many black shadows appeared behind Hu Xian ‘er, and those black shadows exploded into black smoke. One of them had already pounced on the Grand Secretary.
Lord Wen was Huang Jing’s junior brother, and he was also born in the Daoist Sect. How could he not understand the appearance of such a dense demonic aura?
“Demon!” he roared. Sin!”
As he shouted, his right hand instantly released the hilt of his sword and quickly grabbed the back of the Grand Secretary. His left hand swiftly took out a piece of yellow paper from his waist and muttered something. The yellow paper instantly exploded and drowned out the two words ” Imperial Decree ‘ that appeared faintly at the top.
It was a talisman.
The talisman was stuck to the entrance of the secret passage.
Lord Wen grabbed the Grand Scholar and ran into the secret passage. He also cultivated the Nine Yin Heart Technique, so he was extremely fast. Every step he took was a shadow, and his body was several meters away.
However, when he moved, Hu Xian Er moved as well. She was even faster, and in an instant, she had already reached the secret passage. When she reached the entrance, golden light shone brightly, and the flames of the talisman turned into a white-robed figure. She held a longsword that could subdue demons and slashed at Hu Xian Er.
Hu Xian ‘er suddenly turned her head 180 degrees. Her white fox face faced the front and let out a hoarse growl. The huge white fox image behind her flashed.
Bang!
The phantom image of the talisman immediately dissipated. The talisman burned up at the same time, leaving no ashes.
Although she had been stopped for a moment, she had already entered the secret passage. Behind her, many fox children and fox grandchildren turned into black smoke and followed closely behind.
However, there was actually a fork in the secret passage. This made Hu Xian Er stop and sniff carefully. However, it seemed that Lord Wen had dealt with it, and the human smell had actually disappeared.
At this moment, a sound came from the left side of the road.
“Let go of me, I want a beauty, my beauty…” The Grand Scholar had lost his mind. Saliva formed a line at the corner of his mouth as he shouted. Lord Wen was stunned and hurriedly pressed his acupoints before running forward.
However, this voice had already revealed their location.
Hu Xian Er smiled and shot out like lightning.
The foxes ‘shrill laughter rose and fell in the secret passage.
“Seventh Highness, please come out!” “Seventh Highness, please come out!”
Voices rose and fell.
Thinking of the city guards who had opened the city gates, the mobs finally knew fear. They recalled who was the stabilizing force of the Imperial City, who repelled the Frost Giants and gave them a chance to live.
“Elder brother…’
“Can’t you bear to?”
I’m worried that the city will be breached. ‘
Xia Ji waved his hand, and the princess leaned over. After hearing a few words, Xia Xiaosu was stunned. She then lowered her eyebrows and closed her eyes. She stood on the city that was about to be breached and did not say another word. Behind the two of them, flames soared into the sky. The city was in chaos. The fire, snow, and noise made the place seem like the edge of hell.
The brother and sister stood at the edge, silently standing.
There were many people running around in panic. People were dying all the time in the distance, and there were no more wails.
After a while.
Xia Xiaosu sighed softly.
Xia Ji said softly, ” They always hope that someone will fend off disasters for them, but they are unwilling to show any kindness. When death comes, they will shout loudly, but they will always forget what they have done and said.
“Brother, they just want to live. They want to live a better life.
And not everyone was like this.
The hearts of the people were like the sea, and the highest were just filthy floating foam. These floating foam could not represent anyone. They were just the accumulation of evil virtue, but not everyone was like this.
The people’s hearts are not the loudest voices, but the silent majority. Brother, I believe …
The people must not be foolish.” “How long have you been reading?”
“Seventeen years.”
Xia Ji looked at the once miserable, small, and pale princess beside him. Her expression was now more determined. Seventeen years of budding, and now she was finally going to bloom in blood and fire?
So, he praised softly, “Alright.”
Bang!
Bang!
Bang! Bang!
The giants ‘siege was extremely fierce, and to these soldiers who were not prepared to defend the city, this kind of attack was extremely fatal.
Boom!
The city gate was smashed by the huge force, causing many dents.
What followed was a loud bang.
The city gate was broken.
The giant charged into the city.
The rioters who had been clamoring earlier ran away, but how could they outrun the giant? With just one wash, they were crushed into flesh and blood.
The capital was in chaos.
Xia Xiaosu couldn’t help but glance at her brother.
His elder brother remained calm and motionless.
He looked into the distance.
In the distance, the 50,000-strong army was being crushed by the main force of the frost giants, and their losses were extremely heavy. There were actually many howls that sounded like they were crying in the wind and snow behind them. Clearly, the Guifang army had followed them.
Behind him, the shouts in the city grew louder and louder. It seemed that everyone was shouting, ” Greetings, Seventh Prince! ”
The voice was like thunder as it gathered from all directions. This legend with the title of Divine Martial was their only hope. This time, the mark would be extremely deep, and they would never forget who had saved them.
“Greetings, Seventh Prince!”
“Greetings, Seventh Prince!”
Xia Xiaosu turned her head to look. The fire in the city was like a candle, illuminating the kneeling figures in the distance.
When people were in despair, what else could they do other than kneel and pray?
Xia Ji looked into the distance quietly. “Little Su, call back the Fox Deathsworn to protect you.”
“Brother, I will take care of myself.”
The two of them looked at each other. Xia Ji’s gaze had already shifted to the figure on the shoulder of a ten-meter-tall giant among the Frost Giants in the distance. In the snowstorm, although he couldn’t see it clearly, he could recognize that it was the Queen of Guifang, Tu Luo.
Although the two of them had an alliance, the Frost Giants had broken through the city and Guifang soldiers had come. He was not naive enough to think that the Queen of Guifang was only here to help him. Moreover, Hu Xian ‘er had heard some other information when she sent the letter…
He watched Tu Luo approach the city gate, getting closer and closer.
Xia Ji grabbed the halberd, and a burst of energy exploded at the end of the halberd. The nine suns shone brightly, and in an instant, the surroundings were as bright as day.
The moment the halberd shot out, he was already standing on the body of the halberd. Like a great emperor riding a demonic dragon, he patrolled the land that was immersed in blood and fire.
No matter who it was, no one would ignore this explosive brilliance because it was too dazzling.
Tu Luo saw it too…
The strong wind that blew against her face made her silver hair dance wildly behind her. Her blue eyes calmly looked at the prince who had aroused her great interest. He was so powerful, so majestic, and so domineering. She smiled.
Seeing that her uncle was about to raise his hand to fight, she half-knelt on the shoulder of the ten-meter-tall Frost Giant and said something softly. The Frost Giant stopped moving.
Crack!
The ice armor that was surrounded by the wind and snow was torn apart easily.
The tip of the halberd was still shooting toward Tu Luo.
However, Queen Guifang only smiled and stared at the prince who was flying over.
The two of them looked at each other. In an instant, Xia Ji grabbed the halberd with his right hand and swung it to the side. The force on the halberd, the force he had accumulated, turned into a half-moon flame current that cut through the air, producing a thunderous explosion.
He landed beside Tu Luo.
“Seventh Highness, look. Our trust has withstood the test again, hasn’t it?” Queen Guifang smiled..
