323 Storm again
Facing Anna, whose face was distorted by hideousness, the corners of Zhang Lingyun's mouth raised slightly, and a smile was raised.
"It's just a show or two to support your footsteps, do you really think we can't beat you?"
With a wave of Zhang Lingxiao's hand, a purple talisman appeared out of thin air, and the surging spiritual power fluctuations instantly attracted everyone's attention.
As Zhang Lingxiao threw out a gesture, the Divine Fire Talisman containing pure spiritual power was activated, and a huge fireball condensed and formed in the void, attacking towards Anna's direction.
"Defense!"
In the face of a sudden attack without warning, several paladins had a clear division of labor, and the paladins who had already seen the fireball technique stepped forward to meet the attack, and the two of them blocked Her Royal Highness Princess Anna behind them, just in case.
The huge condensed fireball emitted a scorching flame, and its power was far more powerful than the talisman that Zhang Lingfeng cast.
Unfortunately, the negligent paladin ignored the change, and instead condensed the energy in his sword as usual, and stood firm to destroy the fireball as before.
Seeing that the approaching fireball was even more powerful, the paladin suddenly had a bad premonition, and because behind him was His Royal Highness the Royal Princess of the Eagle Kingdom, who was loyal to him, the paladin could only stand firm.
The paladin hurriedly transported the energy around his body, and clenched his sword tightly with both hands, hoping to block the blow.
"Boom...... ,”
It's a pity that this belated defense didn't work as expected, and with a dull impact sound, the huge impact directly shook the paladin away.
The paladin leaping into the void flipped around in the void and slammed into the ground in a graceful arc.
The paladin, who was lying quietly on the ground with his back facing the sky, looked very sluggish, and the bright armor around him had already appeared several dents at this time.
A wisp of blood overflowed from the corner of the paladin's mouth, his bare hands were dripping with blood, and the proud long sword in his hand was only a lonely hilt at this time.
"Protect Her Royal Highness, Defense!"
The paladin, who was stunned and lying on the ground, suddenly opened his eyes and shouted loudly, and when he found that the other party had not taken advantage of the fire to rob, he slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air with a little peace of mind.
The paladin clenched the broken hilt of his sword in his hand, and his face was hideous as if he was in great pain, but he still did not give up his determination to get back up, even if the warm blood beads in his hand flowed quickly down the short blade.
Everyone's hearts moved with the paladin's movements, until he stood up with the hilt of his sword staggered, and staggered towards the princess, despite the scars on his body.
The paladin, who finally walked up to Her Royal Highness the Princess, was no longer arrogant as before, her cheeks as pale as white paper were covered in cold sweat, and she looked extremely embarrassed.
When the paladin looked at the boy who was attacking, his eyes were full of fear, as if the boy in front of him had turned into a demon.
"What just happened! It's just a fireball!?"
Anna, who was stunned by the shocking changes in front of her, involuntarily swallowed her saliva and looked at the paladin beside her with a rash face.
Obviously, it was just a flash of red light in front of him, and then the situation became such a tragic situation, and the specific experience was as strange as a mystery.
"Back to Her Royal Highness the Princess, that fireball just now seems to be more powerful,"
"I actually played the game of pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, and this time we lost!"
Anna, who was already physically exhausted, listened to the analysis of the people next to her, and then looked at the faltering heartfelt subordinates in the distance, the anger value in her heart had reached its peak, but there was a bitter smile on her face.
Several paladins had expected this to happen when they were able to stand firm after the heavy blow of Her Royal Highness the young princess.
But when Her Royal Highness the princess admitted defeat in person, a nameless sadness swelled up in the hearts of several people.
............
Bauhinia City Taihedian Square
The crowd watching the competition through the giant light curtain just happened to prove the power of the purple talisman, and they were attracted by the colorful spell attacks in the field.
Everyone just didn't expect the battle of the immortal cultivators to be so fierce, and it was a pity that they accidentally missed the previous wonderful battle.
Seeing the performance of the paladin, many Gentiles with the same beliefs, some of them gradually frowned, and they were very disdainful of the extremely rampant behavior of a villain like a young man!
............
"Lord Count Andrey, we have already harvested ten elk, we should have passed the test!"
"What do you know, this competitive competition is a battlefield, your victory represents the defeat of others, isn't it good to have fewer competitors!?"
"Shut up, since you have chosen to follow Lord Andrey, everything must be based on your lord's orders!"
Several burly men dressed in plain clothes, holding ten juggling elk behind them, followed the footsteps of the young man in front of them, wandering around aimlessly.
"Sniff, sniff, sniff...... Go that way!"
With his keen sense of smell, the masked boy found a familiar smell, waved his hand to the source of the smell, and motioned for everyone to change their route and follow.
"My lord, what about those ass bugs?"
"The strength is not good, but you want to take advantage of the fisherman, how sad the desire is and how disappointed, let them go!"
In the shade of the surrounding trees, some rats who followed the road but never dared to show their heads were completely out of the masked boy's attention.
............
Watching several paladins slowly put away the long swords in their hands, Zhang Lingyun was completely relieved, a smile belonging to the victor welled up on his face, but he began to think about how to open his mouth and build a cooperative relationship with the other party in his heart.
"We can't let them leave so easily, this group of people must pay the price for slandering the reputation of the 'Zhengyi Sect'!"
Zhang Lingshuang, whose mentality had returned to normal, saw that everyone joined forces to easily defeat this group of Fanbang weirdos.
Immediately put on the posture of a victor, as if the superior who controlled the power of life and death, and looked at Her Royal Highness Princess Anna with extremely arrogant eyes.
"Lingshuang, you ......!"
As Zhang Lingshuang's father-in-law and a personal disciple of the 'Zhengyi Sect', Zhang Lingyu couldn't refute what his wife said.
But as a monk who had fought in the last battle, Zhang Lingyu knew more about the power of these paladins than his own wife.
If the situation is really turned out of control, I am afraid that it will be difficult for him to get out of his body, and between his reputation and the lives of his brothers, Zhang Lingyu cares more about the latter.
Zhang Lingyun, who was full of sadness, looked at the junior brothers beside him, and found that except for the little junior sister, whose face was full of excitement, everyone else seemed to have seen the clues, and their faces were extremely gloomy.
"Dare to ask the girl how she wants to solve it?"
The paladin, who was already seriously injured, had a look of determination in his eyes, but whenever the other party made some excessive demands, he would let them experience the feeling of being killed and broken!
"Death, of course...... ,”
"Second Senior Brother, you take the little junior sister over to take a rest, I'll deal with it here!"
Seeing a flash of killing intent in Zhang Lingshuang's eyes, Zhang Lingyun immediately released a wisp of spiritual power, waved his hand and drew a talisman in the void.
Before he finished speaking, Zhang Lingshuang, who was suddenly frozen, looked at the third senior brother who loved him well with surprise in his eyes.
Until he was hugged by Xianggong and walked into the distance, Zhang Lingshuang had not woken up from his confusion, and asked Zhang Lingyu loudly why?
"Ling Yun, there are people around who are approaching quickly!"
Worried that the little junior sister would have an argument with the second junior brother, Zhang Lingxiao released a wisp of spiritual sense to observe the surrounding situation, and unexpectedly found a team of people rushing over.
"Your Royal Highness Princess, the eldest prince is approaching!"
The paladin, who had spotted the group of centaurs almost at the same time, whispered to Princess Anna the truth, and the long sword, which had been placed in its scabbard, was re-grasped in his hand.
"Her Royal Highness Princess Anna, it seems that the relationship between your brothers and sisters is not very good!"
For cultivators whose cultivation has already reached the middle stage of merging, unless you use spiritual sense transmission to communicate, or some language that you don't understand at all, no amount of low voice can escape Zhang Lingyun's ears.
Zhang Lingyun, who finally seized the bargaining chips he could negotiate, how could he miss such a God-given opportunity, immediately opened his mouth to clarify the problem, and tried to get the other party to take the initiative to find his help.
No matter what kind of negotiation is held, the one who opens the first to speak softly will always be the weak party, and no matter what the future development of events, it will not be able to change the fact that it has been pinched by others.
"Members of the royal family, because of the future succession to the throne, who can coexist peacefully!?"
Looking at the seriously injured paladin on her side, and her tired and weak appearance, Anna had already given up resistance, and expressed the bitterness in her heart as if sarcastically.
"Third Senior Brother, I heard you right, right? A woman in this country can inherit the throne?"
"Ling Feng, the world is so big that you can't be blinded, this is very rude!"
Zhang Lingxiao scolded the open-mouthed Senior Brother Feng in a low voice, and then nodded slightly to Princess Anna to express his apology.
Although the other party has not yet apologized for slandering the 'Zhengyi Sect', Zhang Lingxiao, as a righteous monk, still shows his upbringing humbly and politely.
"Thank you, Your Excellency, for speaking up, and you haven't asked this chivalrous man what his name is?"
I had no intention of having a deep friendship with this group of people who had broken down the country, but what she had experienced today had subverted Anna's subjective impression of the Qing Dynasty.
In addition, the young man in front of him, who was silent but extremely powerful, would scold his junior brother just to defend himself, a foreign woman, such a simple character is really admirable.
"Zhang Lingxiao, the eldest disciple of the 'Zhengyi Sect', is honored to be able to learn from each other with outstanding strength!"
Faced with the friendliness suddenly shown by the other party, Zhang Lingxiao only felt confused, and after a little hesitation, he answered the question truthfully, after all, this is not a secret matter, and it can be clear with a little inquiry.
"It's also our pleasure!"
Anna nodded slightly in agreement, and just wanted to know more about the young man from the next year, she suddenly noticed that her paladin was unusually nervous, and began to move to face southwest.
"Everyone get ready to defend, that group of people is almost there!"
Zhang Lingyun, who had already released the spiritual sense around him, found that five sturdy men had suddenly stopped running a mile away through the information fed back by the spiritual sense.
Several people looked at each other and discussed something, but unfortunately the distance was too far, and the population shape of several people was very strange, Zhang Lingyun couldn't get any useful information from it. century
"Zhang Lingxiao, it's a pleasure to meet you, I'm very sorry for slandering your sect before, there will be a big battle here, you better leave as soon as possible!"
Hearing that the powerful big brother was about to be killed, Anna showed a touch of sadness and melancholy, and slowly bowed and saluted with the support of the paladin, expressing her apologies.
"This ...... , your brothers and sisters are not in harmony, and it is very dangerous to stay, do you want to leave with us!"
Zhang Lingxiao, who hugged his fists and saluted to accept the other party's apology, raised his eyes again to find Princess Anna, as if there was too much sadness hidden in his eyes.
Such a beautiful woman in a high position should be like a budding snow lotus, untouched by trivial things, indulgent and wanton in life.
Now he was stumped by his own bad things, revealing such an aggrieved look, which made Zhang Lingxiao instantly feel a sense of pity.
Ahem, ahem...... ,
Seeing that the senior brother was about to be attacked by Anna's beauty strategy, he first opened his mouth to care about the safety of the other party, and Zhang Lingyun took a step forward under the pretense of coughing to attract the attention of the senior brother.
tried to pull down the placket of his senior brother's shirt to remind him secretly, but he didn't expect Zhang Lingxiao to move his steps at the same time, skillfully avoiding Zhang Lingyun's hand hanging in the air.
"Thank you for your concern, it's just that my eldest brother is ruthless, and the paladins who follow him are even more ruthless, I'm afraid you will be blamed!"
Looking at the young man who cultivated immortals in front of him, he really had a sense of justice as recorded in the information, and he longed to be affirmed and recognized.
Anna immediately put on a pitiful look of weakness and helplessness, but at the same time, her face was full of sincere concern for the safety of the other party.
"Don't worry, girl, no matter how important this competition is, it's just a competition, if anyone dares to run rampant, I ...... I believe that all righteous people will not sit idly by!"
"Senior brother, you ...... , alas!"
Looking at the anxious and contrived way of speaking, Zhang Lingyun suddenly had a feeling of hating iron and steel.
But now that he has lost the initiative in negotiations, he can't save face in public, so he can only accept this reality with sadness.
At the same time, Zhang Lingyun admired Princess Anna's way of knowing people, after all, the two sides met for the first time and didn't even say a few words.
This woman with good strength can not only put down her body to show weakness, but also find a person who is stupid and easy to deceive and speaks with weight from the four brothers in one fell swoop, which is really convincing.
"Anna would like to thank her son for his righteous help, if she can get through the difficult time safely, she will be a confidant with a generous gift!"
Anna was trying to take it a step further and consolidate the extremely well-behaved little boy in front of her, but was interrupted by a sound.
"Yo, isn't this my cute sister!"
A handsome young man dressed in a close-fitting vest and loose breeches and a cloak with eagle wings spread on his back slowly walked out of the shadows of the trees.
His gaze swept over several Qing Dynasty immortal cultivators dressed in plain clothes, revealing an indescribable disgust, and immediately turned his head to look at his sister Anna.
The four paladins who followed him were dressed in dark steel armor and wore a long sword at their waists, each carrying the same style of sword on their backs.
"Prince Diana, if you don't hunt the fawns obediently, how can you have the leisure to come to me!"
Anna pushed away the paladin's support at her side, clenched her fists and bit her lip fiercely, making her face as rosy as possible.
tried to deceive the treacherous and sinister prince in front of him, in exchange for the chance for everyone to leave safely.
Although Anna really wants to borrow the hands of Zhang Lingxiao and others, she completely asks Diana, which is a stumbling block that hinders her from ascending to the throne.
However, His Majesty the King is merry by nature, and there are as many as ten heirs left behind, and every leader of the Eagle Kingdom in this 'Forbidden War' is a brother who is related to him.
Unless there is a way to eradicate them in one fell swoop, it will only startle the snake and make everyone unite to give themselves a heavy blow!
"That kind of thing is boring, how can it be attractive to my lovely sister?"
As he spoke, Diana drew his sword and raised his hand to point to Princess Anna's location, like a bird of prey that saw only its prey, its eyes full of bloodthirsty greed.
As soon as Diana swung his sword, several paladins behind him were like strings, and at the same time they stepped forward and waved their hands and drew their swords and pointed forward, and their movements were neat and uniform, without a sense of disobedience.
"It seems that this battle is inevitable, so let's see who will kill the deer in the end!?"
Seeing that there was no room for relaxation in the situation, Anna turned her head slightly and stared at Zhang Lingxiao with her eyes, waiting to find the other party's extremely firm eyes.
Anna showed a knowing smile, readily accepted the battle request of the Grand Prince Diana, and suddenly waved her hand to signal the paladin in her hand to attack.
"Senior brother, wait first!"
Finding that the senior brother seemed to have lost his mind, and was about to set off to save the beauty heroically, Zhang Lingyun could no longer suppress the irritability in his heart, and waved the spirit stone sword in his hand to block in front of the senior brother.
At the same time, he pinched his fingers to disperse the water balloon, releasing the embarrassment of being besieged by himself and treating Her Royal Highness Princess Anna coldly.
"Ping-pong, ping-pong, ......!"
In an instant, except for the two nobles, the paladins on both sides rushed together, the long swords intersected, and the sound of metal collision sounded one after another.
On the open ground that had been leveled by the previous battle, the paladins dressed in black and white armor had their own victories and defeats, and it was absolutely impossible to tell the winner in a short period of time.
"Third junior brother, what are you doing? How can you allow the act of bullying the weak to happen!?"
Zhang Lingxiao, who lost his ability to move, looked at the third junior brother beside him with shock, unable to understand his behavior at this time.
There are even some doubts that this is still the person who did not hesitate to risk his life in order to save his brother and sister? A strange feeling of alienation came to my heart.
"Senior brother, the beauty Gu is precious, but you can't gamble on the invisible future with the lives of our senior brothers, right!?"
Zhang Lingfeng, who had not said a word for a long time, wanted to wait for the third senior brother to pierce this layer of window paper, but seeing that he failed to speak several times in a row, he finally used force to stop the senior brother.
Thinking that when he was almost killed by poisoning, it was the third senior brother who found the antidote to save himself from fire and water, in order to prevent a crisis in the relationship between the brothers, Zhang Lingfeng stubbornly said the problem.
"They are all people with similar cultivation, how can they ......?"
Zhang Lingxiao just wanted to argue for himself, his eyes flashed over the two sides who were fighting fiercely, looking at the strength of the black-armored paladin, which was obviously better than Anna's side, and immediately retracted his strong words.
"Zhang Lingxiao, you guys hurry up and escape! I'm ...... Nice to meet you as a friend!"
Anna looked at the eldest prince who was slowly approaching with the long sword in her hand, and stepped back with a slow step.
During this period, she kept throwing her eyes in the direction of Zhang Lingxiao asking for help, and when she found that she was blocked by the two senior brothers, Anna had the wit to do the opposite, playing the emotional card to care about each other.
"Third junior brother, I will take the responsibility for this matter alone, you leave first!"
Hearing Anna's almost desperate shout, it instantly aroused the blood in Zhang Lingxiao's heart, although the two had only met for an hour.
But Anna's noble and glamorous temperament, sincere treatment and courage to admit mistakes have deeply attracted Zhang Lingxiao's attention.
Thinking that such a beautiful person was about to be in danger, Zhang Lingxiao could no longer suppress the thoughts in his heart, and directly pushed away Zhang Lingyun who was blocking him, and rushed to Anna with a sword to block Diana, who was pressing step by step!
"Third Senior Brother, shall we rush forward too?"
"Respect the choice of the senior brother, let's not end up in chaos!"
Looking at Senior Brother Feng's extremely complaining eyes, and the obvious resistance, Zhang Lingyun really couldn't do anything to force others.
Although the second senior brother is talented and has a huge strength beyond ordinary people, Zhang Lingyun is not optimistic about the second senior brother, after all, the opponent is an opponent that Anna is afraid of, and his strength must not be underestimated.
After exhaling deeply, Zhang Lingyun still decided to sit and shake off the shopkeeper, looking forward to the senior brother heroically saving the United States and returning triumphantly!
"I'm coming!"
Zhang Lingxiao, who gave Anna a reassuring smile, stared at the prince of the Eagle Kingdom in front of him, felt the surging energy emanating from his body, put away his contempt, and waved his hand to take out the breath charm and put it on his chest.
In an instant, the aura of heaven and earth poured into Zhang Lingxiao's body like clear water poured into a funnel, causing the whole person to begin to undergo great changes.
"Click, click...... ,”
Zhang Lingxiao's wheat-colored and healthy arms were bruised, his fists clenched his fingerbones were pinched, and his surging posture became more and more robust.
Not inferior to the paladin who was fighting, he was more powerful than others, and the fierce cold light flashing in his eyes made people shudder.
"I found the man I liked so quickly, but unfortunately he has neither a horse nor a prince!"
As soon as Diana finished speaking, he swung the dazzling long sword in his hand and rushed towards the door of his opponent.
Zhang Lingxiao kicked the ground with both feet, jumped over and flew over Diana's head, dodging the sword that the opponent thought was inevitable.
At the same time, the tip of the sword in his hand struck Diana's shoulder, and Diana suddenly withdrew his sword too late, so he bent back sensitively, and slashed his feet in the direction of Anna one after the other.
"Despicable and shameless villain, your opponent is here!"
Seeing that the other party skillfully used the tiger to leave the mountain, the smile on Zhang Lingxiao's face disappeared instantly, and he turned around in an instant when his feet touched the ground.
Unleash the spiritual power of his body and bend his knees in pursuit, attacking Diana's neck, trying to relieve Anna's crisis with a quick victory!
Diana, who felt a cold air approaching behind him, retracted his sword momentum with great regret, and suddenly moved sideways and held the long sword in front of his chest.
The moment the opponent's sword slashed across the long sword, Diana stood firm and pushed hard, instantly knocking the boy away.
"Ping-pong, ping-pong...... ,”
In the face of such a superb opponent, Zhang Lingxiao no longer had reservations, shouted angrily in a low voice, and rushed over again with his sword.
Suddenly, two people representing different countries, but fighting because of the same woman, were like two fierce beasts fighting together, and the crisp sound of iron colliding was endless.
As soon as the connoisseur made a move, Zhang Lingxiao, who really fought against the royal family, instantly understood the intention of the juniors and disciples to stop him.
The opponent's eldest prince, his kendo strength is obviously higher than Zhang Lingxiao's, even if he can still fight now.
But with the passage of time, the gap between the two will be infinitely magnified, and the final result will inevitably end in failure!
Zhang Lingyun and the others were attracted by the fierce fight in the field, and they thought it would be a one-sided battle, but they didn't expect that the strength of the senior brother was not weak, and he could support it!
More than a dozen rounds passed, and several small wounds appeared on Zhang Lingxiao's body, the most serious of which was the scratch on his shoulder, which was as thick as a finger.
