Wang Xiao wasn't lying; he really hadn't made a move in a long time, and he couldn't even remember the last time he did.
Shen Yuyan used her whip skills to the fullest extent, forcing back the other guards before coming to Lan Hua's side.
"Be careful, this damned eunuch's cultivation is unfathomable, at least on par with Commander Tan!"
Lan Hua drew her bow to its fullest extent and unleashed a series of attacks from all directions, shooting out a magnificent arrow of light.
The light arrow then split into four, shooting towards Wang Xiao from different directions, making it impossible to defend against.
Wang Xiao smiled contemptuously, and without making any big moves, he simply waved his hands, and a huge aura appeared around him.
Bang!
The arrow of light struck the protective aura, causing only a ripple before disappearing without a trace.
Wang Xiao casually waved his hand again, and several blade energies appeared simultaneously, slashing towards the two of them.
boom!
Lan Hua and Shen Yu Yan were blasted away by the residual force of the blade's energy, and the house behind them collapsed with a crash.
Dust and smoke rose everywhere.
With just a wave of his hand, he possessed the power to split mountains and shatter rocks.
Lan Hua said urgently, "This damned eunuch is too powerful, let's retreat!"
"Trying to run? No way!"
Just as Lan Hua and Shen Yuyan were about to slip away, Wang Xiao stretched out his hands and immediately emitted a powerful suction force.
The two of them suddenly felt a powerful force pulling them backward, and their bodies involuntarily moved backward.
Shen Yuyan exclaimed in alarm, "Oh no! If we get pulled within ten feet of him, we'll probably be torn to shreds by his protective aura!"
Lan Hua remained calm, a glint of shrewdness appearing in her eyes.
He suddenly turned around, and a golden arrow appeared in his right hand without him even noticing.
Those were the Cloud Piercing Arrows, the only two remaining, shimmering with golden light.
Lan Hua drew the bowstring taut, merging her soft, yin-like energy and spiritual power with the piercing arrow, firmly locking onto Wang Xiao.
After receiving guidance from Long Yifei and with the infusion of spiritual energy, Lan Hua's archery skills truly became unerring.
The arrow, piercing through the clouds, shot out of the bow, radiating a dazzling golden light as it hurtled towards Wang Xiao.
Wang Xiao didn't take it seriously, thinking that Lan Hua was just struggling in her death throes and that the golden arrow posed no threat whatsoever.
He activated the Earthly Defeat Divine Skill, and powerful qi once again enveloped him, like a shield.
boom!
A loud bang was heard, and a dazzling light and shockwave erupted in front of Wang Xiao.
ah!
Wang Xiao was already highly skilled, possessing the cultivation level of the Yuan Dan realm. When his powerful qi collided with the golden arrow, the resulting shockwave was even stronger, sending him flying.
A huge pit appeared on the spot, with blue bricks scattered everywhere.
When the smoke cleared, Wang Xiao was barely clothed, covered in blood, with not a single patch of skin intact.
Looking at Wang Xiao rolling around on the ground, Lan Hua said coldly, "How does this feel?"
Despite the excruciating pain, Wang Xiao asked, "What kind of arrow was that? How could it be so powerful?"
"An arrow specifically designed to kill you!"
Lan Hua's face turned cold. He nocked a black iron arrow on the bowstring, aimed it at Wang Xiao, and intended to end his life.
Wang Xiao's face was filled with fear. In all the years he had been injured, he had never suffered such a serious injury.
They've never even had a minor scrape; they're used to being pampered.
"Aren't you afraid my master will stomp you into a pile of dog shit? Let me go now, and I might spare your life!"
"You talk too much nonsense!"
An arrow was fired, and the black iron arrow shattered Wang Xiao's head, splattering his brains all over the ground.
Shen Yuyan turned her face away. Even as a skilled demon hunter, she couldn't bear to witness such a bloody scene.
The remaining palace guards were filled with horror.
He was one of the two most powerful eunuchs in the palace, and the most powerful disciple of the legendary eunuch, who could get whatever he wanted.
Now, the Grand Eunuch Wang Xiao has died such a pathetic death at the hands of a Demon Suppression Guard, without even being able to use his signature move.
They trembled with fear; as guards, their master was dead, but they were still alive.
If they were to return to the palace and meet that eunuch, what would happen?
"Forget it, let's get out of here. We're not going back to the palace anyway; we'll just die if we go back!"
The crowd quickly dispersed and slipped out of Long'an City.
Lan Hua glanced around but didn't see Wang Xiao's adopted son.
"Miss Yuyan, have you seen that little eunuch?"
Shen Yuyan shook her head, "They probably slipped away long ago under the cover of the smoke and dust!"
Lan Hua sighed, "This is a bit troublesome!"
The two did not linger and hurriedly returned to the Demon Suppression Bureau.
Lan Hua knew that Wang Xiao's death did not mean the end of the trouble; on the contrary, an even bigger trouble might be coming soon.
If even Wang Xiao is this powerful, then Wang Xiao's master must be at least at the Danxia Realm level.
That's a powerful expert at the Danxia Realm. Even if he had the Cloud Piercing Arrow, he probably wouldn't have had a chance to use it.
It is highly likely that he was killed by Wang Xiao's master before he even saw him.
Lan Hua shuddered and quickly shrank her neck; the thought alone was terrifying.
"Ah, if only Brother Hui were here with me. With his cultivation level, he could definitely protect me!"
"Relying on Bo Ling is probably hopeless. At most, it can save me from death, but if I don't kill Wang Xiao's master, I'll be finished sooner or later!"
"That's a master of the Danxia Realm, someone who can traverse the heavens and the earth!"
Lan Hua paced back and forth in the room, her mind filled with thoughts of how to survive.
Suddenly, he remembered the Demon Suppression Tower, where the demonic beasts imprisoned on the ninth floor were also terrifying beings.
Although his cultivation level has dropped, he may not be a match for that person, but he should be able to hold them back for the time being.
If Lan Hua could take advantage of the man's inattention and fire a piercing arrow to seriously injure him, everything would be fine.
Lan Hua made up her mind to release the spirit fox from the ninth floor of the tower and kill the demon first!
It was late at night.
Lan Hua quietly left the Demon Suppression Bureau and went to the dilapidated little temple from last night.
Bai Yunyun was taken aback. "Why did you come to find me so quickly?"
Lan Hua sat leisurely in her chair and smiled, "I've already thought it through. I can release your father, but there are conditions!"
Bai Yunyun was initially delighted, but then her expression turned sour. "What are the conditions? You need to think it over carefully!"
"Let me make this clear first, I don't sell myself!"
Lan Hua was speechless; he didn't have such heavy tastes.
"I want you to be my pet!"
"impossible!"
Bai Yunyun firmly opposed it; she could not risk her future to save her father.
"If that's your condition, then please leave. I'd rather wait another hundred years!"
Lan Hua knew this condition was impossible; he was just making an exorbitant demand to try and gain some leverage.
"Then let's exchange three things!"
Bai Yunyun thought for a moment and said, "Please tell me which three things!"
Lan Hua smiled and said, "Don't worry, I won't let you die, nor will I let you harm your compatriots, nor will I violate the moral principles in your heart!"
"That's excellent!"
Lan Hua said, "To prevent you from going back on your word, you know what I mean!"
A look of worry appeared on Bai Yunyun's face. After a long while, she said, "I know. Let's sign the life-and-death contract now!"
Lan Hua smiled and said, "Have you thought this through?"
The white fox lowered its head slightly.
"Alright, let's go!"
Suddenly, a white light appeared, illuminating the entire Mahavira Hall.
The white light was so intense that Lan Hua could barely open her eyes.
Just as Lan Hua was filled with doubt, the white light suddenly disappeared, and the three-tailed white fox that had been lying on the Buddha's hand also vanished.
