Xin Ye had lost all patience. He looked at Feng Guang and asked, "What is your choice?"
"My choice..."
Before the boastful words could be finished, panicked voices came from the other side: "Assassins! Protect the emperor!"
Xin Ye frowned. The voice came from His Majesty's palace, and Shen Yue couldn't be allowed to get hurt right now. He raised his hand and said to his subordinates, "Come with me!"
They disregarded even the threat to their own glory and headed towards His Majesty's palace.
Feng Guang stood there for a while, then decided to join in the fun. She couldn't run as fast as Xin Ye, and by the time she arrived, the two groups had already started fighting. She immediately spotted Shen Yue, who was being protected by the Imperial Guards.
"Your Majesty..." Feng Guang ran to Shen Yue's side and asked, "Are you alright?"
"It's nothing." Shen Yue shook his head, then asked, "It's dangerous here, why did the goddess come?"
"I'm worried about you." Feng Guang glanced at Xin Ye, who was fighting fiercely with the assassin, out of the corner of his eye. He was a little puzzled. Logically speaking, if there were assassins trying to kill Shen Yue, they should be the ones sent by Shen Yue. Why was he here to protect Shen Yue?
But Feng Guang soon found out why. Just as the two groups were locked in a fierce battle, another group of assassins jumped out. The imperial guards in front of Shen Yue hurriedly engaged them, but the enemy was too numerous and the other side was also unable to spare any attention. As a result, the assassins got closer and closer to Shen Yue.
Seeing the blade coming at her, Feng Guang quickly pulled Shen Yue behind her, and Shen Yue was stabbed in the shoulder.
Shen Yue hurriedly said, "Goddess!"
Feng Guang frowned in pain, then... she opened her eyes again, blinked, and with a blank face, pulled the knife out of her body. Not a drop of blood flowed, and she felt no pain at all. Before coming to this world... the immortal body she had exchanged for one point really worked!
Shen Yue asked again, "Goddess, are you alright?"
Feng Guang threw the knife at the stunned assassin, patted his chest, and said, "Of course I'm fine, I'm thick-skinned!"
She's not afraid anymore. Anyway, she's immortal. No matter how many times someone stabs her, she won't die or feel any pain. In other words, she's a tank with armor that makes her immune to damage!
Feng Guang was both happy and depressed, because generally speaking, aren't the ones who act as tanks usually men?
Seeing that they couldn't break through after a long siege, and with the appearance of an unharmed woman, all the assassins gave up the fight and, with a whistle, flew away together.
Xin Ye sheathed his longsword and hurried over to ask, "Is Your Majesty injured?"
"I'm fine." Shen Yue then looked at Feng Guang. "Goddess, are your injuries... really alright?"
"I'm fine." Feng Guang looked down at her shoulder. Apart from a hole in her clothes, she hadn't bled at all.
Although Xin Ye was fighting, he hadn't been unaware of the situation here. Seeing that Feng Guangming had clearly been stabbed but seemed unharmed, he couldn't help but ask, "Why aren't you injured?"
“I am a goddess,” Feng Guang said with a smile. “Of course, a goddess cannot be harmed by mortal weapons.”
The name Xin Ye slipped out of his mouth: "Impossible."
“Why is it impossible?” Shen Yue laughed. “General, the goddess is different from us mortals. It’s normal that we can’t hurt her. I was skeptical about the existence of two goddesses, but now I believe that Feng Guang must be the goddess.”
Xin Ye suddenly felt that he might have shot himself in the foot by coming up with this plan.
