Chapter 273 Eight Legal Flags
"As expected of the Princess Regent, she can actually summon the souls of the dead from the underworld and even obtain such an important formula. It really pays off all my planning!"
"I really have to thank you guys this time, hehehe..."
Nan Zheng's face changed drastically, and he immediately held his sword in alert. At the same time, several secret guards who had been hiding also flashed to Xiao Changheng and Yun Qingqing and drew their swords together.
Yun Qingqing frowned and said nothing, but her hands kept moving. She threw out a few talismans and made quick hand gestures.
I saw those talisman papers straighten up and dance in the air by themselves. They were as hard as iron sheets and knocked down the hidden weapons flying from nowhere!
Xiao Changheng's expression was slightly stern, and he said in a cold voice:
"Protect the princess!"
The secret guards obeyed the order in unison, changing their positions to protect Yun Qingqing in the center.
Only one person turned the tip of his sword and headed straight towards Xiao Changheng!
Xiao Changheng's eyes turned fierce, and he raised his hand to strike the secret guard in the chest, but Yun Qingqing quickly pulled him behind him.
Just as he was startled, he saw the secret guard's face twisted unnaturally, and suddenly opened his mouth wide, and a stream of black smoke overflowed from his mouth and went straight to Yun Qingqing's face!
If that palm strike just now had really hit him, Xiao Changheng would have been the one who got hit!
Yun Qingqing was not afraid of this. She moved both hands at the same time. With one hand, she made a gesture to disperse the black smoke instantly, and with the other hand, she threw out a talisman and stuck it on the secret guard's forehead.
The secret guard froze and fell to the ground stiffly.
When Nan Zheng saw the fallen secret guard, his expression changed:
"This person is not one of ours, and he has been dead for a long time!"
As he spoke, he immediately began to observe the other secret guards nervously. The secret guards also looked a little frightened and exchanged glances with each other warily.
"They are normal." Yun Qingqing said, and everyone felt relieved.
In fact, she spotted the unusual secret guard at first sight, which allowed her to counterattack the moment the other party attacked.
At the same time, he also became more and more certain in his heart that although the voice just now sounded like it was coveting the weak steel formula, in fact, the more important target was Xiao Changheng.
Her expression grew even colder as she took out a few talismans and handed them to Nan Zheng, saying:
"Give one to each of you. From now on, no one is allowed to act alone!"
"Nanzheng, Zhiluo, protect that father and daughter!"
"Leave it to me!" Zhiluo immediately responded and stood beside Lu Sicong and Jingyao, father and daughter.
Nan Zheng quickly took the talisman, but said hesitantly:
"Then Your Majesty..."
Although the prince is the most powerful warrior in the world, he is hard to guard against these weird things, and he is really worried about relying on just a few secret guards.
But before he could finish, Yun Qingqing had already pulled Xiao Changheng to her side and said in a deep voice:
"From now on, don't leave my side!"
As soon as she finished speaking, that sinister laugh rang out again!
"A little girl with her cunt still wet, yet so confident!"
As the voice was spoken, a strong wind suddenly blew up in the whole courtyard, startling everyone so much that they looked around in panic and subconsciously gathered together.
"Look at the ground... the ground is glowing!" a secret guard suddenly shouted.
Everyone looked closely and saw that some places on the ground in the courtyard were emitting a sinister blue-purple light.
Moreover, these lights are still flowing and spreading, gradually forming strange patterns!
The people in this courtyard gradually felt that the air seemed to become heavy and oppressive, and a bone-chilling chill seeped into their backs!
Xiao Changheng looked at the strange pattern on the ground, his expression became solemn, and he immediately looked away and turned to look at Yun Qingqing.
Suddenly he felt a burning sensation in his waist, which immediately lifted his spirits and dissipated a lot of the coldness.
Looking down, I saw a jade pendant around my waist emitting a faint warm white light.
It was the protective jade talisman that Yun Qingqing had given him.
His eyes darkened slightly as he gently picked up the jade talisman and silently moved a little closer to Yun Qingqing, concentrating on paying attention to the movements around him.
In just this moment, the ground formation was completed!
"Princess Regent, this Soul-Seizing Flag Formation can't be broken by just a few talismans! Hand over Xiao Changheng and the Black Steel Formula immediately. I can spare you and the others' lives as a fellow Taoist!"
The voice was dry, sharp, and triumphant.
As soon as he finished speaking, there were strange movements around the yard again. Countless dark resentful souls rose from all directions outside the yard, rushing towards the crowd with roars!
Even the sky was gloomy at this moment, and dull thunder could be heard in the distance.
Yun Qingqing sneered:
"Whether it can be broken or not, I'm afraid it's not up to you to decide!"
As she spoke, she raised her hand and made hand gestures, throwing several pieces of talisman paper in eight directions. Golden light became lines, and in a moment the Eight Yang Tiangang Formation was completed, trapping everyone in the courtyard in the center before countless resentful souls and evil spirits arrived.
Those resentful souls and evil spirits crashed into the golden outer wall of the Tiangang Formation one after another, making shrill ghost cries!
Everyone felt the heavy pressure in the air disappear in an instant, and the chill also receded. They all breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at Yun Qingqing with eyes filled with awe.
But at this moment, the voice in the air sounded again:
"Hehehe...it seems this intermediate-level talisman formation is your trump card? However...you are underestimating my Soul-Seizing Flag Formation!"
"How can a few mere talismans be compared with my eight Yin-gathering flags?"
Yun Qingqing's eyes turned fierce, and she suddenly threw a talisman above the courtyard wall!
"Get out of here, you bastard!"
I saw the talisman paper flying out as fast as an arrow!
But when it was about to pass over the courtyard wall, it suddenly stopped, as if there was an obstacle in front of it, and it looked like it was stuck on something invisible!
Then a slightly startled inhalation sound was heard, and something suddenly appeared with the talisman paper as the center. In just a moment, the skinny old Taoist standing on the courtyard wall appeared in front of everyone.
The old Taoist obviously didn't expect that Yun Qingqing's talisman would be so fast that he had no time to react. Seeing that the illusion was broken, he immediately narrowed his eyes:
"You, a young girl, have decent talent, but unfortunately, you are so ignorant. When you saw the Soul-Grabbing Flag Formation with eight magic flags, you didn't even understand that the only thing you could do was to run for your life!"
"But you're lucky today. I value talent. If you sincerely kneel down and submit to me now, not only will I not make things difficult for you, I can even accept you as my apprentice and pass on all I've learned throughout my life. How do you do that?"
Yun Qingqing almost laughed at his shameless words.
But her eyes were filled with resentful spirits and evil spirits in the yard. She was not in the mood to laugh at all. She looked at him sarcastically and said:
"Who the hell do you think you are? How dare you dream of being my master and disciple? You don't deserve it!"
The old Taoist's face darkened and he said sharply:
"You are so arrogant, little girl. You will regret not begging me properly just now!"
After saying that, he swung his whisk fiercely with a big hand and ordered the resentful spirits and evil spirits that were running around everywhere:
"All the ghosts under my command will obey my orders and form a spirit formation!"
As soon as the words fell, a horrifying sound suddenly stimulated everyone's eardrums, making them dizzy and their hearts palpitate!
Ten thousand ghosts roar!
