"Damn it!" Facing the siege of multiple faceless men, Dong Zhou had tried his best to the point that the veins on his face were bulging, and he had used all his strength. However, if he was fighting with only one faceless man, it would be fine. When the number of them increased, his ability to resist would be greatly reduced.
Swish!
With a slight negligence, a deep wound that penetrated the bone suddenly appeared on Dong Zhou's body.
The blade condensed from the faceless man's arm is extremely sharp and has a certain effect of breaking qi. This makes it difficult for Dong Zhou, even though he is a master of internal force, to play a big role in protecting his internal force at this moment.
Ajiu was standing by the window, looking extremely anxious, but there was nothing she could do.
As a princess born in the palace, she certainly didn't have to work hard to learn any martial arts. A group of palace masters had already been arranged to protect the ninth princess.
Linghua fought with the faceless man. The strength of both sides was equal. If Linghua wanted to defeat the other party, it would probably take dozens of rounds.
But at this moment, a faceless man suddenly crawled out from the ground beside Ajiu's feet and grabbed her ankle, which scared Ajiu so much that she couldn't help but let out a scream.
Linghua heard the sound and noticed the situation here, and her face changed immediately.
She and Dongzhou can be sacrificed, but Ajiu must not be in any danger. This is her duty as an official of the Seven Stars Prison.
Without any hesitation, Linghua abandoned the faceless man in front of her and ran towards Ajiu without hesitation, slashing the faceless man's arm that was holding Ajiu's ankle with a sword.
"Don't be afraid, Princess Nine. I'm coming."
"Aunt Linghua, be careful!" Jiu exclaimed.
A spear suddenly pierced Linghua's neck. The human neck is so fragile that even a master of internal strength is no exception. If the neck is pierced, the person will surely die.
"Ugh! Princess Jiu, Jiu, Jiu, hurry, hurry... run away." Linghua looked at Jiu with worried eyes, and stretched out her left hand towards her, but she could not resist the loss of her vitality. Her eyes gradually blurred and her hands fell down weakly.
“Aunt Linghua!!!”
The faceless man who had fought with Linghua before quickly withdrew his hand, and his right hand actually condensed into the shape of a spear. It was precisely because of this change that he was able to stab Linghua's body from a distance.
In fact, it was Linghua herself who was too worried about Ajiu's safety and was careless. She never expected that the faceless man's arm could make such a change, and she was killed by surprise.
The faceless man's body turned into a large piece of cloth and immediately wrapped up Linghua's entire body, as if he was eating. When the cloth was wrapped again, her body had disappeared into the faceless man's body.
…
The west gate of Qingyang City.
The two soldiers guarding the city yawned and looked into the distance. It was their turn to be on guard tonight. If anything happened outside the city that was suspected to be an enemy approaching, it was their job to immediately light a beacon fire to warn the surroundings.
"We have a day off tomorrow, why don't we go to Orchid Pavilion? We haven't been there for a while."
"If we go there, we'll have to work for a month for nothing. We should go to Fule Yaozi Lane. It's cheaper there, and after we're done, we can go to the tavern next door and buy a couple of bottles of wine."
Just as the two were chatting, a cloud of dust suddenly appeared on the distant horizon and came rushing towards them.
When I got closer, I saw that it was a man riding a horse, galloping towards me at a very fast speed.
Such noise naturally attracted the attention of the patrolling soldiers on the city wall. They lit beacons and immediately sounded the alarm.
The man was getting closer and closer, and when he was only about thirty feet away from the closed city gate, he showed no intention of slowing down.
The soldiers on the city wall couldn't help but wonder, is this man looking for death?
If I crash into the city gate at this speed, I'm afraid not only will I not be able to shake it at all, but I will also be smashed into a pulp and stuck to the wall. When I am scraped off tomorrow morning, I'm afraid I won't even be able to tell where my eyes and nose are.
Under everyone's gaze, the man suddenly raised his right hand and slapped the city gate, which was still more than ten feet away.
boom!
A huge blue palm energy came whistling and hit the iron city gate which was as thick as an adult.
In an instant, the city gate bent, and the bolt that could not be controlled broke, and the gate was wide open.
