Chapter 494: Invisible assassin, stupid, encountering disaster and panic

~12 min read 2,318 words

More than a hundred breaths ago, east side of Milk Tiger Forest, at the Long Jinwei army.

"In the north, be careful!"

Cheng Guang's warning made Meng Ying, Tie Xinchuan, and a group of Long Jinwei soldiers turn their heads to look at the north side. After seeing the scene on the north side, their pupils suddenly condensed.

The powerful rain of arrows continuously fired by the thousands of Long Jinwei soldiers almost covered a radius of over a hundred meters above the carriage. One must know that these soldiers all had a base strength of over 25 zong, and the power of the arrow rain they fired simultaneously was not small.

At this moment, the snow, and even the airflow, were all driven away by the arrow wind.

But in the sky a few dozen meters to the north, there was a small area where there was clearly nothing, but the arrow rain could not break through no matter what. After the arrows were shot, they were like hitting an air wall, falling one after another.

"Is it a ghost technique?"

Whoosh...

"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and light the yellow candle!"

Meng Ying's reaction was the fastest. Cheng Guang and others were still suspicious, but he had already drawn his knife and slashed fiercely at the area that blocked the arrow rain. At the same time, he did not forget to signal others to light the yellow candle quickly.

The yellow candle is not only used for sacrifice and enhancing the divinity of the spiritual card, but also within its reflection range after being lit, any ghost means will fail.

Cheng Guang, Jiang Ping, two Xianyang-level experts, and Tie Xinchuan and all Long Jinwei soldiers reacted fiercely, quickly taking out yellow candles from their bodies and intending to light them.

Yellow candles are a must-have for Dragon Guards.

To say that their movements were fast enough, in less than half a breath, hundreds of yellow candles were lit at the same time, illuminating the entire area of more than a hundred meters around the carriage.

But the reflection range of the yellow candle's firelight is only about three meters in radius, which means its radiation range to the sky above is at most three meters high.

Clang...

And Meng Ying, who rushed out, noticed a huge force in front of his blade when his blade touched the area that blocked the arrow rain, and his expression changed instantly.

Someone used weapons to block him, and he could even feel that there were two breaths far above his own in front of him, but unfortunately, his naked eye just couldn't see anyone.

"Invisible ghost technique, it is those Xianyang-level experts from the vassal state, bad!"

Bang...

While Meng Ying's mind reacted, his chest was hit hard, and his body fell from the air to the ground, making a loud noise.

"Pfft... Cheng Guang, Jiang Ping, enter the carriage to protect the Prince closely!"

Meng Ying suppressed the blood in his heart and ordered Cheng Guang and Jiang Ping to give orders, and then did not dare to delay for a moment, rushing toward the carriage quickly.

But at the critical moment, no matter how fast he was, it was too late.

When he was kicked down from the air, the two invisible people had already galloped down toward the carriage, and in an instant, they arrived at the top of the carriage.

That is, Cheng Guang and Jiang Ping, because they were always sticking to the carriage, were fast enough. Hearing Meng Ying's order, they immediately lifted the carriage curtain and drilled in.

However, the other party finally arrived!

The two invisible people, although they were close to the top of the carriage, also entered the reflection area of the yellow candle's firelight at the same time, so the invisible ghost techniques of the two were naturally broken.

They were two middle-aged men in black, one holding a knife and one holding a sword. Both of them were relatively slender. The one on the left was constantly emitting thin white smoke from his body, tightly wrapping himself and the body of the person on the right.

Both of them were head-down at this moment, and only their upper bodies were within the reflection range of the yellow candle, so they were revealed, while the lower bodies at a high place were not within the irradiation area of the yellow candle, so they were still in an invisible state.

Clearly, that white smoke is the pass of the invisible ghost technique!

The two invisible people noticed that their tracks had been exposed, so their expressions were slightly flustered at this moment, but the arrow was on the string, and they were only one step away from the carriage, so naturally, it was impossible to give up.

The two gritted their teeth and accelerated to pounce on the carriage.

"Shoot arrows to force them back!"

Although Tie Xinchuan's reaction was not as good as Meng Ying's, seeing that the two had already stuck to the top of the carriage, he still shouted for everyone to shoot arrows.

The Long Jinwei's bows and crossbows had not stopped, but the reaction speed of many people was not as good as the two invisible people, so the arrows shot were all empty.

Hearing Tie Xinchuan's order, they immediately turned their bows and shot at the two invisible people who had already revealed their tracks.

This was the last chance. Xia Yu Sheng was sitting in the carriage. Once the two stuck to the carriage, their bows and crossbows would completely lose their effect.

All Dragon Guards naturally understood this point. After shooting the arrows, they did not look at the two, but directly threw away the strong bows, drew their knives, and rushed toward the carriage.

Clang... Clang...

It must be said that this last round of arrow rain issued with anger still played a role, but if the number of Dragon Guards was slightly smaller, the two Xianyang-level experts would probably not be afraid. Unfortunately, at this moment, the Long Jinwei soldiers were almost all here.

Thousands of ten-thousand-forged arrows cast from silver shot over, and the pupils of the two invisible Xianyang-level experts suddenly contracted.

"I block, you break the car and catch people!"

The one on the right shouted angrily, waving the big knife in his hand frantically, forming a knife curtain more than two meters in diameter, and actually blocked in front of his companion, helping him block most of the arrow rain.

Thump thump thump...

Arrows fired by a single or a few Frigid-Resistant level experts, even if made of ten-thousand-refined silver, could not penetrate the bones of a Manifesting Yang level expert. However, when fired by hundreds or thousands of soldiers like the Dragon Guards, all of whom had a base strength of over 25 zong, the result was completely different.

The Xianyang-level expert who took the initiative to block arrows for his companion, no matter how fast he waved his big knife, he could not block the arrow rain shot from all directions of the carriage. So, in the end, two or three percent of the arrows passed through the knife curtain and inserted into him.

Two or three percent of the arrows, that is more than two hundred.

Without any suspense, his entire body was almost instantly shot into a sieve. Although it could be heard from the sound that the arrow rain did not penetrate his bones, the terrifying impact of the arrow rain still made his body sway left and right, and the speed of dancing the knife slowed down by more than half, and the knife curtain slowly dissipated.

Not only him, but even the person behind him was inserted with more than ten arrows.

But Xianyang-level experts are ultimately Xianyang-level experts. The one who blocked the arrows, although his body was shot into a sieve, still raised his hand to protect his face and some vital areas, which showed that this round of arrow rain did not cause him fatal damage.

He was already like this, let alone the one behind who only hit more than ten arrows. He had already pounced on the top of the carriage at this moment, and the long sword also suddenly pierced down from the roof of the car.

Bang!

The two had been lurking invisibly for so long, using airflow to make a feint to the east and attack the west, attacking from the north, and finally approached the carriage after so many arrow rains. One can imagine the strength of this shot.

Clearly, he also knew that being surrounded by thousands of Dragon Guards, his chance to make a move was just this one, so he must succeed in one fell swoop.

Bang...

The sword edge fell suddenly, and the earth around the carriage trembled violently. The force was transmitted to the ground, and the snow around was suddenly stirred up. A group of snow fog dozens of meters high instantly shrouded the entire carriage, and even the hundreds of Dragon Guards close to the carriage were covered in it.

"25 Jun of strength, only broke a hole, how is this possible..."

In the snow fog, the sword-holder, the invisible assassin of Cai Qiu, looked at the long sword in his hand, which only broke a hole less than half a meter in diameter on the top of the carriage. His pupils suddenly contracted, and his voice was full of horror.

Swish...

However, his horror did not last long.

Two green spiritual lights suddenly flew out from the carriage, and they were stuck on his right hand holding the sword and his neck position. The assassin lowered his head and found that they were two green pocket-sized snakes the size of a thumb.

"Teng Snake King, Da Xia has more than twelve beast kings..."

As the last thought flashed in the invisible assassin's mind, the two small snakes on his neck and right hand suddenly twisted their bodies. The body length almost instantly expanded to more than a hundred feet, biting the assassin in their mouths, rising directly into the air, and tearing him into pieces in mid-air.

This was not over yet. The other person who helped him block the arrows, although he had tried to retreat and escape when the two green small snakes flew out of the car roof, how could a group of Long Jinwei soldiers let him leave?

"Protect the Second Prince!"

"

"Charge!"

………………

Lu Dong, Luo An, Zou Ping, and a group of other young Long Jinwei soldiers roared as they charged toward the assassin who was attempting to escape.

With their roar, almost all the soldiers in the vicinity charged over, and their target was clearly the carriage.

Seeing countless soldiers surrounding the carriage, Tie Xinchuan felt his heart skip a beat inexplicably. His eyes twitched violently, and he roared, "Idiots, all of you get back! What are you doing!"

Not to mention that there were two Manifesting Yang level experts, Cheng Guang and Jiang Ping, inside the carriage, one could tell from the two Beast King level Teng Dragons alone that the Lady had long since provided multiple layers of insurance for the Second Prince's safety, and there was simply no need for them to worry.

These many Dragon Guards surrounding the carriage, while successful in detaining the assassin, had also coincidentally caused the situation to fall into complete chaos.

The second assassin, whether they ran or stayed, was destined to die in the end.

But once the area around the carriage fell into chaos, the situation would become very dire.

Currently, half of the thousand Dragon Guards present had been on guard around the Milk Tiger Forest and had returned to the ranks one after another.

Who knew if others had mixed in among them?

"Everyone move aside, all of you move aside! Don't give others an opportunity!"

Yuan Bai, the Deputy Commander of the Dragon Guards, was the second to react. He roared almost immediately after Tie Xinchuan.

But even so, both of their speeds were still half a beat too slow.

Lu Dong, Luo An, and the other commanders of the eight battalions, along with hundreds of Long Jinwei soldiers, had already charged out halfway by now. They were either standing on top of the carriage trapping the assassin or surrounding the carriage.

Boom…………

Hearing the roars of Tie Xinchuan and Yuan Bai, Lu Dong and the others saw the chaotic situation around the carriage. Although they reacted quickly, they were ultimately too late.

A violent gust of wind suddenly exploded from the very center of the Long Jinwei soldiers. The dozens of soldiers crowded on top of the carriage were immediately pushed away, and the shockwave caused by that gust of wind also pushed away the hundred or so soldiers in the vicinity.

Also pushed away at the same time were the yellow candles in the hands of the soldiers.

Clang…… clang……

Two intense sounds of metal clashing suddenly came from inside the carriage.

Ding…………

Immediately following was a strong white light that rose sharply from the large hole in the roof of the carriage. Tie Xinchuan, Yuan Bai, and the scattered Long Jinwei soldiers including Lu Dong and Luo An, instantly turned pale.

"Aunt Han Shuang……"

Xia Yu Sheng's startled cry came from inside the carriage. Tie Xinchuan's pupils constricted sharply, and he quickly rushed to the front of the carriage. Worried about the situation inside, he reached out to lift the curtain as soon as he approached the carriage.

Whoosh…………

But just as his hand touched the curtain, a palm wind came head-on. That palm wind was not only terrifying in power but also startlingly fast. Caught off guard, he had no way to dodge and could only turn sideways to take the blow with his shoulder.
