A dazzling golden light suddenly lit up, enveloping Lin Jinghan completely. Then, with a loud bang, the Great Witch and Lin Jinghan flew backwards.
"Could this be the Holy Butterfly protecting its master?" The elderly Minister of Rites, who had once seen the Holy Butterfly, expressed his suspicions in shock. As soon as he said it, he realized he had misspoken: How could he possibly be speaking up for that little girl?
"Jinghan! How are you? Are you feeling unwell?" Sikong Zhan quickly hugged Lin Jinghan and tried his best to steady her body so that she would not fall to the ground.
But the great wizard was not so lucky. No one caught him, and he hit the ground hard. He slid for a long distance on the ground and finally stopped when he hit a pillar. The blood that he had forced to suppress was finally spit out. Coupled with the backlash of his own wizard power, his expression instantly became dispirited.
The commotion in the Golden Throne Hall was so loud that it alerted the imperial guards. The guards rushed in with spears in hand. Seeing this, the eldest prince immediately gave the order:
"Go, kill that witch!"
His intuition told him that Lin Jinghan would definitely ruin his plans! So he had to strike first and kill her first!
At the same time, seeing that the Great Wizard was injured, the subordinates all attacked Lin Jinghan with their staffs.
"Looking for death!" Lin Jinghan was injured, which had angered Sikong Zhan. They actually dared to attack Lin Jinghan, which made Sikong Zhan go berserk. He drew out the Canglong Sword and swept it across, knocking all the guards and wizards out with one move!
"I'm fine, my chest just feels hot and uncomfortable." Lin Jinghan pressed her chest with one hand, feeling like it was about to explode.
Sikong Zhan quickly looked at the person in his arms and saw that Lin Jinghan's face was frighteningly red, with big beads of sweat dripping down her face, and her face was full of pain.
"Jinghan!" He was frightened and shouted at Xiang Yuanqing in panic:
"Master Xiang, come and see what happened to Jinghan?"
Without him shouting, Xiang Yuanqing had already flown over and grabbed Lin Jinghan's hand to examine her. He found that Lin Jinghan's whole body was terribly hot. He quickly used his internal energy to protect his hand before he dared to take her pulse.
"Why is it so hot!" Xiang Yuanqing glanced at Sikong Zhan, wondering why he was not afraid of the heat, and said quickly,
"If Prince Jingnan has a way to resist Jinghan's high temperature, feel free to use it on her. If you let her continue to be burned like this, she won't be able to bear it."
"Hot?" Sikong Zhan looked at Xiang Yuanqing, then looked at his hand holding Lin Jinghan, and reached out to touch Lin Jinghan's forehead: It's really hot!
He quickly explained: "The clothes Jinghan wears are impervious to water and fire."
This was the dress he had given Lin Jinghan when he first brought her to Cangmang Villa. It was not only impervious to water and fire, but also invulnerable to swords and guns. Fortunately, Jinghan was wearing this dress today, otherwise he wouldn't be able to hold her at all.
But now even Xiang Yuanqing, who has such profound skills, needs to use his internal strength to withstand this temperature. What kind of torture is Lin Jinghan suffering?
Sikong Zhan wished he could take his own life, so he immediately retracted the Canglong Sword, held Lin Jinghan's hand tightly with his right hand, and transferred his internal energy to her to help her withstand the heat.
The burning sensation instantly spread into his body, but his expression did not even change, and he continued to steadily transfer his internal energy to Lin Jinghan.
The eldest prince was originally shocked by Sikong Zhan's strength in knocking down everyone with one sword. Seeing this, he immediately ordered:
“Kill them!”
If he didn't kill Sikong Zhan when he was too busy, and waited until he was free, as long as he was determined to fight for the throne for his good brother, how could he have any hope of winning the throne?
More guards rushed in, all holding spears and stabbing at Sikong Zhan and the others.
"Stop!" The queen shouted sternly, but no guard obeyed her order. She knew that the Golden Palace was full of dangers for her at this time, so she quickly protected Tan Tai Yu by her side.
"You dare to hurt my disciple's wife? You're seeking death!" At this time, Furukawa moved.
As a martial saint, his kung fu was only stronger than Xiang Yuanqing who was interested in studying medicine. With just one palm, he knocked all the guards who came in outside. When he hit the guards outside, a large number of them fell down, and there was wailing outside the Golden Throne Hall.
"Stop!" The great witch finally breathed a sigh of relief, struggled to say two words, and then spat out another mouthful of blood.
The Great Wizard was worthy of being a Great Wizard. With just two words, he shocked the entire crowd, and no one really took action. As for the guards, whether they listened to the Great Wizard's words or were afraid of Gu Chuan and dared not take action, it was unknown.
Xiang Yuanqing really couldn't find a way to help Lin Jinghan cool down, so he could only work with Sikong Zhan to transfer internal energy to her.
"It's so hot..." Lin Jinghan was unconscious from the burning sensation, feeling as if she was about to explode. No matter how hard she tried to mobilize her internal energy to resist, the heat spreading from her chest did not subside in the slightest.
"Jinghan, hold on, I will save you!" Sikong Zhan gritted his teeth and desperately sent his internal energy to Jinghan, then looked at Guchuan, the only one with free hands.
"Stinky old man, think of a solution!"
Gu Chuan glanced around the Golden Throne Hall and finally looked at the Great Wizard. He instantly appeared beside him, picked him up, and strangled him by the throat.
"Tell me quickly, how can we save people?"
Gu Chuan's movements were too rough, and the Great Wizard spat out another mouthful of blood. He suppressed his surging internal energy and blurted out two words, "Hanquan!"
"Where is Hanquan?" Furukawa asked again.
"I know! Come with me!" Rongyue picked up Tan Taiyu and quickly appeared beside Guchuan.
Guchuan decided to go all out and simply kidnapped the great witch as a hostage. Together with Rongyue, Sikong Zhan and the other two, he set off for Hanquan.
"Stop them!" With such a great opportunity, how could the eldest prince just watch him slip away?
Regardless of whether the guards were fallen or not, as long as they were able to stand up, they all followed the eldest prince's orders to stop the queen.
"The one who can make the Holy Butterfly recognize its master is the Holy Maiden of Beijiang!" Rong Yue directly took out the jade seal and shouted at Tan Taiming,
"Boss, get your people to withdraw!"
The eldest prince sneered.
"Is Queen Mother trying to deceive herself? If she is truly the destined Saint, why would she feel unwell after the Golden Butterfly entered her body? It's obvious that she used some magic to forcibly seize the Saint Butterfly! Killing her and taking back the Saint Butterfly is the right thing to do now!"
The queen is majestic.
"For thousands of years, the Holy Butterfly has never mistakenly recognized the Saint Maiden. Moreover, you saw the Holy Butterfly protect its master just now. The Saint Maiden must have been injured by mistake by the Great Wizard. The Saint Maiden has been missing for over a decade, and now a new Saint has finally appeared. Can you afford to injure her?"
The people of Beijiang believe in witchcraft, and the Saint is their faith. Since the disappearance of the previous Saint, Beijiang has been plagued by frequent natural and man-made disasters. The emergence of a new Saint is undoubtedly what everyone has been waiting for.
