After Luo Ying put on the gloves, his index finger could easily pierce through Heng Wenhao's light armor and A Tao's body. A Tao's head would be as fragile as tofu in front of his five fingers.
As Luo Ying's five fingers drew closer and closer to A Tao, A Tao's face was already covered by the shadow of his palm. At this moment, several bursts of energy shot towards Luo Ying.
Luo Ying swung her arms and slid backward quickly.
Whoosh whoosh! ! !
Three figures landed in front of him.
Swish swish swish! ! !
Two more figures landed on the left and two on the right.
Three more people walked up behind them.
The ten people who suddenly arrived were all dressed in the same black bodysuits as Atao. They didn't speak and were all expressionless. They attacked Luo Ying directly.
The ten people cooperated very well and their attacks were very rhythmic. They first launched an attack on Luo Ying, but after it was unsuccessful, they dispersed, but always maintained a circular formation to surround Luo Ying in the middle.
Luo Ying glanced at them and said, "They're all just first-rate experts, yet they can maintain their fighting rhythm in front of me. It seems the Dragon Guards have been quite free lately!"
"Don't you need to protect the emperor?"
No one answered Luo Ying with words; instead, he was met with a new round of attacks.
"You've been trained well. If you had a few more years, you might all have become top-tier masters. It's a pity you insisted on coming here to seek death..."
Luo Ying sighed, then suddenly leaped high into the air, flipped her hand so that her palm was facing down, and landed steadily and vertically.
"One step to support the coffin, two steps to support the general."
"Ghost General!"
As soon as the word "will" was uttered, the ten men immediately fell to the ground, unable to even lift their heads.
Heng Wenhao and Atao also felt immense pressure, as if a mountain had pressed down on them.
At this moment, another figure leaped over, not dodging Luo Yin's attack, but stopping directly below Luo Ying, striking upwards with a palm as if to lift up the mountain!
Boom!!!
There was no violent air burst, but the houses in Mujing Bay seemed to shake a few times, and the torrential rain flowed backward, bouncing into the sky as it approached Luo Ying.
Luo Ying did a backflip in mid-air and landed in the distance, gazing at the unexpected intruder from afar.
This is an old man holding a whisk.
He was dressed in eunuch's clothes, wearing a shawl, with white hair growing out from under the brim of the hat at his temples.
“Eunuch Lü,” Luo Ying said in a deep voice, his smile gone.
Lu Lu glanced at the ten people lying on the ground around him and said, "I was thinking of testing the results of your training. If you were good, I was even planning to ask for a reward for you before the Emperor. Now it seems that you are far inferior to your predecessors, which is very disappointing."
When Lü Lu refers to his seniors here, he is naturally referring to Heng Wenhao and Atao.
But you really can't blame these ten Dragon Guards, because you can't compare them to Heng Wenhao and A Tao.
They were among the first Dragon Guards, the frontline force that followed Yuan Yun to survive in the cracks and eventually bring down the powerful relatives and ministers.
At that time, let alone confronting powerful relatives and ministers head-on, even surviving required being extremely careful for fear of being discovered.
Compared to their generation, the current Dragon Guards are like flowers in a greenhouse.
However, many of the original Dragon Guards are still around, but the ten people that Lü Lu brought are all newcomers.
Seeing that Lü Lu ignored her, Luo Ying was not annoyed and said, "So the current secret commander of the Dragon Guard is you, Eunuch Lü."
Lu Lu then looked at Luo Ying and said, "Luo Ying, this is Changsui. You've gone too far."
Luo Ying asked, "Is this His Majesty's will?"
Lü Lu countered with, "What do you think?"
Luo Ying thought for a moment and said, "Eunuch Lü, you need to think this through. If His Majesty is unaware of this matter, then you have chosen sides between the Left and Right Prime Ministers' residences, and His Majesty will be very disappointed in you."
"We brought all these brats with us. Do you think His Majesty wouldn't know?"
Lu Lu sneered and said in a shrill voice, "Our family's affairs are none of your concern. You should mind your own business!"
Luo Ying slowly took off his gloves, glancing at Heng Wenhao and A Tao alternately, and said, "Please convey my apologies to the Princess. I was a bit too heavy-handed in tonight's sparring."
Lu Lu asked, "Aren't you going to play with us a little longer?"
Luo Ying said, "The Left Prime Minister's Mansion is loyal to His Majesty. My father-in-law and I are both indispensable forces in the court, so there is no need for internal strife."
After saying this, Luo Ying turned and left.
"Hmph..." Lu Lu glanced at Luo Ying's retreating figure with disgust.
While Atao escaped danger, Zhao Wu also saw a glimmer of hope.
Zhao Yan led his soldiers out of the Maoshan Sect and charged towards Chen Jiudao and Tulip step by step.
Liu Ling ran up to the two men and said, "Yang Huanyun has retreated, and Luo Ying has run into Eunuch Lü. We can't break through. Let's retreat quickly, or it will be too late!"
Chen Jiudao glared at Zhao Wu, then, without thinking much, winked at Tulip and turned to run.
"Retreat!" Yan Xin shouted behind him, leading his gang away.
Zhao Wu and Bai Ning breathed a sigh of relief and helped each other sit down.
Zhao Yan leaped out from the crowd, glanced at Zhao Wu's injuries, and was immediately enraged. He picked up his gun and chased after Chen Jiudao.
"You thief, prepare to die!"
As Zhao Yan thrust forward with his spear, Chen Jiudao quickly threw a handful of hidden weapons to slow Zhao Yan down.
Zhao Yan was unwilling to give up and continued to pursue relentlessly.
Yan Xin made a snap decision, turned around and blocked Zhao Yan's path, shouting, "Three seniors, you should leave quickly!"
Tulip paused for a moment, then asked, "And what about you?"
"Have you forgotten what the leader said? We need to consider the bigger picture! You guys are more useful than me, let's go!"
