Chapter 3: The Phantom in White

The wooden carriages with rose coats of arms are not overly ornamental, but the intricate patterns and materials carved by skilled craftsmen prove that the quaint style of carriages is expensive, and no family with a history would have hung their cars with a lot of sparkling gems or diamonds, which is the work of the outbursts, let alone the imperial family. It is worth mentioning that this carriage is also blessed with a small wind magic array to reduce the gravity of the vehicle, so that the passengers who ride in it will not feel any bumps.

Di Xue was sitting in the car with her eyes closed, and there was a glass of red wine on the small wooden table in front of her.

Taking a sip of red wine, Di Xue sighed: "Next time you come out, keep a low profile, don't take the carriage at home." ”

Xu Boying, who was driving, said, "Why don't you always like to use the teleportation array in the Tower of Eternity directly, or take a magic flying machine?"

Di Xue smiled slightly, lifted the silk precious curtains, and the carriage had already driven out of the Eternal City, marching on the vast and fertile Heroic Soul Plain outside the city.

Looking at the fields and farms on the plains, the tall pines and cedars that dotted the roadside, and the windmills and waterwheels that rotated slowly, Di Xue exclaimed: "You know, I still like to enjoy the scenery along the way. ”

Uncle Xu chuckled, and then fell silent, Di Xue seemed to feel something, and frowned slightly. After a while, Uncle Xu whispered, "Great Prince, it seems that someone is following us." ”

Di Xue frowned slightly and asked, "Is it Taylor?"

Xu Bo replied: "It doesn't seem to be, more than one person, you know that Miss Taylor has always been a loner, and it doesn't seem to be a member of the family, and her breath is very cold, not like." ”

Di Xue's eyes were slightly cold, and she snorted coldly: "Hmph, then let them follow and see what they want to do." ”

The official road of the Eternal City is very wide and smooth, with five carriages running side by side, and the tall cypress pines and redwoods unique to the north of the Red Sea continent are planted on both sides of the road.

The carriage marched silently between the pine and cedar forests, and gradually to the north, the farms and fields gradually became scarce, and the grass and trees gradually became denser, and suddenly became a forest, and the autumn sun scattered through the tall canopy and luxuriant branches and leaves, turning into a faint and tranquil charm.

It's just that someone is bound to break this natural tranquility today, Di Xue's carriage slowly stopped in the forest, and Xu Bo, who was driving, leaned lazily on the eaves, like an ordinary old man enjoying the faint sunshine and the autumn breeze blowing through the forest, and didn't seem to care about what was about to happen.

In fact, Di Xue also thought it was very funny, there was really someone who dared to target him so close to the Eternal City and the Divine Law Academy.

Although he didn't care very much, he always liked to take the initiative, so he simply asked Xu Bo to stop and see what tricks the people in the dark wanted to play.

The people hidden in the shadows also seemed to know that they would be discovered by Di Xue sooner or later, but seeing that Di Xue stopped so simply, the carriage with the simple and gorgeous ornament and the most precious rose insignia stood in front of them like a big target, and they couldn't help but be a little angry.

More than a dozen black shadows emerged from behind the trees in the forest or from the bushes, holding long knives of a uniform system and slowly approaching the carriage.

But under such a formation, Xu Bo, who was sitting on the wheel, was still lazy like a harmless little old man, leaning on the carriage like those old people who like to bask in the sun at the door of their homes in the imperial countryside. Di Xue was still sipping red wine in the carriage, he didn't even pull up the curtains, as if the master and servant had just stopped to rest.

The aura on the leader of the black-clothed man was the most chilling among the more than a dozen sword-wielding assassins, he looked at the carriage in front of him, and the posture of the master and servant on the carriage who didn't care about them, and laughed angrily: "His Royal Highness the Great Prince is really as rumored, so majestic. ”

Di Xue in the carriage glanced at the leader of the men in black through the curtains, and continued to taste the wine.

The feeling of being ignored seemed to infuriate the leader of the men in black, who was masked, only a pair of eyes were exposed, only to see his eyes narrowed slightly, one hand raised, and waved vigorously.

Suddenly, from the forest or from the trees, dozens of arrow feathers flew with a terrible sound, startling countless birds.

Unfortunately, the gorgeous and intricate veins around the carriage flickered, and a cyan brilliance floated, and the brilliance melted into a semicircular light cover covering the carriage.

When dozens of arrow feathers met the cyan light, the speed gradually slowed down, and finally fell, after three waves of arrows, hundreds of arrow feathers were scattered all over the ground, not even one of them touched the body of the carriage, and even the white horse pulling the carriage could not be killed.

Seeing this, more than a dozen black-clothed men who were the first to appear rushed towards the carriage under the leadership of the leader, and several of them even glowed with different colors of fighting spirit!

Uncle Xu, who was napping against the eaves of the carriage, looked up helplessly, glanced at a branch above, stretched his waist, straightened his black butler clothes, and disappeared from the car.

A man in black was about to slash the long knife in his hand towards the carriage magic light shield, the pale yellow fighting energy on his body had just flashed, and before he could transport the fighting energy to the long knife in his hand, he found that he couldn't lift a trace of fighting energy.

He lowered his head slightly, and found that he had a large chunk in his chest at some point, and the concave place was filled with a palm.

Then he couldn't see anything anymore, for his heart burst open, a bloody flower exploded in his chest, and his eyes were blurred by his own bright red blood.

In an instant, Xu Bo turned into a black wind, the black wind and the forest wind merged, and a black-clothed assassin with a knife fell where he blew it, even those few strong men with a shining fighting spirit were not his enemies.

The leader of the man in black burst out, because the black wind had already blown in front of him, he raised his sword with both hands and slashed down, the cyan fighting qi attached to the long knife pulsed like a flame, obviously his fighting qi realm had been cultivated to the point of being extremely strong.

Xu Bo was not shocked, the strong man who reached his realm naturally knew how to kill the enemy with the most effort, only to see him skillfully turn around and avoid the sword, and stretched out a calloused palm to slap the forearm of the leader of the man in black.

There is a faint gray light attached to the palm of his hand, obviously Xu Bo's martial arts realm is not much higher than the leader of the man in black, and he has his own potential.

Seeing this, the leader of the man in black turned into a cut, and the long knife in his hand slashed horizontally at Uncle Xu, but he couldn't cut Uncle Xu's ghostly figure at all, Uncle Xu stepped forward, grabbed the wrist of the leader of the man in black with one hand, and twisted the edge forcefully to make the leader of the man in black feel pain and abandon the long knife, and Uncle Xu's other hand also took the opportunity to print on the waist of the leader of the man in black.

The leader of the men in black widened his eyes, and then the light in his eyes gradually dissipated, and he fell in a pool of blood with a thud.

Xu Bo glanced at him expressionlessly, and walked towards the forest with his body.

Before Xu Bo made his move, he had looked up at a branch above, because he knew that there was a person on that branch.

When he turned into a black wind blowing by the carriage, the man on the branch also turned into a white phantom.

The phantom leaps through the trees, dancing among the branches, and the archers who had previously hidden in the woods to shoot arrows could not escape her eyes, no matter how well disguised they were, and often fell into eternal death without even a muffled snort.

Xu Bo looked at the white phantom and smiled, his figure flashed, and he joined her camp.

At this time, the assassins who came to assassinate the great prince of the Manhua Empire, Di Xue, could no longer tell who was the assassin.

Di Xue pinched the red wine glass with one hand and supported her chin with the other, watching the white-clothed raider show in the forest with some tastelessness, but the corners of her mouth couldn't help but show a smile of relief.

He was not a person who loved to laugh, and he was even known as a cold-faced prince among the nobles and celebrities of the Manhua Empire, and today was the third time he laughed, because he couldn't help but smile whenever he saw that white figure.

In an instant, two figures, one black and one white, circled around the woods beside the carriage.

Xu Bo's palm was slightly forced, twisted the neck of an archer, turned to look at a big tree behind him, and asked with a smile, "Is there anything else?"

The man in the tree answered him with practical actions, only to see her jump directly from a thick branch more than six meters high, and landed on a pile of weeds under the tree, and the last assassin hidden under the weeds let out a scream, and then died.

Uncle Xu shrugged his shoulders, turned around and walked back to the carriage.

The person who jumped from the tree was the white phantom dancing on the branches of the forest, she was dressed in a strange white dress, some of the hoods resembling mage's robes covered most of her cheeks, revealing only a smooth jaw, a delicate and lovely nose, and sexy pink lips, very mysterious.

Her bizarre white outfit resembled the hooded robes that mages loved to wear, but the style, style, and materials were absolutely different.

The chest and abdomen, forearms, shoulders, knees and other vulnerable places are silver light armor, the light armor has ancient and intricate carvings, and the lower garment seems to have been cut and modified into a lovely white short skirt, under the short skirt is a pair of exposed slender legs.

Di Xue got out of the carriage and quietly looked at Taylor, who was following behind Xu Bo and walking with his hands behind his back like a girl next door.

At this time, she is so quiet, just like those shy girls in the imperial countryside who follow her grandfather into the city to shop, and how can she be like a cold-blooded killer who killed all sides in the forest just now?
