Chapter Eighty-Three: Falling
"Zhang Xiao! the mountains and rivers meet, let's see you in the future!" Zhou Yu jumped up from the ground, and then shouted at the dead assassins who were still active, "You useless things, if you don't withdraw quickly, it will be difficult for you to all die here." ”
After that, he was the first to desert and burrowed into the dense forest at a high place, and after a few jumps, he disappeared, his speed was comparable to that of a cultivator of the Divine Realm.
The dead are not righteous men who have the will to die, if they can, they also want to survive safely, since the leader has launched the order to retreat and retreat first, they will scatter in an instant, and their speed is a few points faster than when they were ambushed.
Many of their own men had already been killed, and when they saw those assassins retreating, no one had lost their minds and went to chase and kill, and there were many guards and palace maids who were not strong but survived, and they were obviously relieved.
If they continue to fight, they will definitely be the first to die in the end, although they don't know why those assassins gave up their upcoming victory, but since they can survive, they don't want to deliberately seek death.
After the assassins dispersed, Wang Chifeng fell from a high place with his sword raised, his robe was disheveled, and there was a cut on his face with a sharp weapon, which must have been an extremely difficult battle.
"Are you injured?" Wang Qifeng said eagerly when he came to a few people.
"As long as Senior Brother Eleventh is slightly injured, we are fine!" Xu Lianxiao saw that Zhang Xiao and Chen Taoluo had no intention of answering, so they had to respond.
Hearing this, Wang Qifeng hurriedly walked to Lu Muqing's side, and after a while of investigation, he found that Lu Muqing's injuries were not very serious, so he was relieved.
"I didn't expect the Great Zhou Dynasty to send two Spiritual Light Realm cultivators to ambush here at one time, fortunately, it's me, if we were to be replaced by other elders in the sect, I'm afraid we would have been captured by the Great Zhou Dynasty first before the Tianque Sect made a move. Wang Qifeng stood aside and explained in a voice that only four people could hear why there was no return after killing the tiger demon just now.
Zhang Xiao was secretly shocked in his heart when he heard this, Elder Wang's strength had surpassed that of most of the spiritual light realm cultivators, and he was probably not idle to be able to entangle the two cultivators who could not get out of the lotus pond.
"Why did they retreat?" Wang Qifeng saw that no one responded to his words, so he had to change the subject.
"Elder Hui, the assassin who was led by the other party in the fight just now is our acquaintance, that guy knew that he was not an opponent, so he retreated directly with the team!" Zhang Xiao immediately answered, and he was the only one among the few people who knew the reason for Zhou Yutian's retreat, but he didn't say it directly.
"Oh! That's fine. ”
Wang Qifeng nodded thoughtfully, did not continue to ask about the details of the retreat, and immediately walked to the sedan chair, "Your Royal Highness Princess, is there a big problem?"
"Thank you for your concern, I'm fine, I don't know what happened to the deaths and injuries outside?" In the sedan chair, a crisp female voice like a yellow warbler sounded, which was very beautiful.
Hearing the female voice, Zhang Xiao only felt a little familiar, but he didn't think about it, but Xu Lianxiao on the side frowned, and stretched his brows as if he understood something, his eyes were full of joy.
"The little princess doesn't need to worry, there are not many casualties, and she can continue to move forward. ”
Wang Qifeng deliberately concealed the true situation, and then turned to the guards and palanquin men who were lucky enough to survive and ordered, "You guys rest in place for an hour, and it's not too late to leave after an hour." ”
Those palanquin guards were already exhausted in the killing, even if Wang Qifeng didn't say this, they couldn't move forward, and the downhill trend also made them have a better impression of Wang Qifeng.
Zhang Xiao guessed the reason why Elder Wang didn't tell the real situation, the little princess was the protagonist of this mission, if even she lost her confidence in moving forward, it would be difficult for this already dilapidated team to go to the end.
"Lian Xiao! Don't feel pressure, just take it as for self-protection, if you don't kill them, they will kill you!"
Noticing that Xu Lianxiao, who was sitting on the side of the sedan chair, was quiet at this time, and his face was different, he walked over while comforting him, and sat aside.
"Mmmmmmmm
Hearing the voice, Xu Lianxiao raised his head and responded, and at the same time, his little butt moved to the side to make room for Zhang Xiao.
Her experience as a child was different from ordinary people, and she didn't seem to care much about the first killing.
"That's fine, if we don't overcome this difficulty, it will have a great impact on our future practice. Zhang Xiao nodded thoughtfully.
"Zhang Xiao, why didn't you react at all? Could it be that it's not the first time for you?" Xu Lianxiao changed the topic and asked rhetorically, in order not to think about those disgusting pictures, he could only divert his attention.
"Hmm!" Zhang Xiao nodded when he heard this, did not hide it, and explained, "Since I came to the Yunliu Sect, I have done more tasks than you, and I have been in contact with it early, so I can be so indifferent." ”
"Although you are an ordinary disciple, your growth is obviously the fastest among the four of us, even the Twelfth Senior Brother is not as good as you. Xu Lianxiao thought about it before he decided.
"You have a spiritual root, and your cultivation speed is increasing day by day, and I am just an ordinary cultivator who has nothing, and the gap between us will be widened later, and I hope you can take care of me more when the time comes. Zhang Xiao opened his mouth to greet him, and did not feel proud because of Xu Lianxiao's praise.
He knew where his disadvantages were, not to mention that he was infinitely beautiful above the Divine Realm, and he could crush almost all the opponents in the same realm.
Once he reached the Divine Realm, he would not have any advantage, and he would not be able to perceive the spiritual power of heaven and earth that existed between heaven and earth, which was his most fatal shortcoming, and spirit stones were not always available.
Xu Lianxiao smiled lightly when she heard this, but Zhang Xiao was humble, not serious, in her heart Zhang Xiao has always been an omnipotent but humble image, which makes her addicted to it and unable to extricate herself.
"There may be a big battle to fight in the future, first grasp the cultivation to restore the spiritual power, otherwise we won't even be cannon fodder at that time!"
Zhang Xiao noticed that the atmosphere between the two of them had fallen into a strange state, and immediately changed the topic, he had personally sensed the strength of the cultivators of the Spiritual Light Realm, and the strength of Xu Lianxiao and the others could not pass a move at all.
"Well, you should also hurry, and when the time comes, you should focus on self-preservation. Xu Lianxiao nodded in concern, but because Zhang Xiao was beside her, he couldn't concentrate on running the Xuanyuan Technique to restore spiritual power.
"You go about your own business first, I'll go over there and have a look!"
Zhang Xiao knew that sitting here would affect Xu Lianxiao's luck, so he found an excuse to get up and leave.
