Chapter 1226

Besides being moved, Lin Luochen was more worried. This Great Abyss envoy before them didn't count for much; the real trouble was the people from the four great families.

They couldn't just watch the Great Abyss envoy be killed.

Moreover, the strength of the four great families was not something the Daoyi Sect could contend with. Four Great Saints—and that was just on the surface. Looking at the Daoyi Sect, they only had the three Great Saints, the Ancestors, and all of them were running out of lifespan.

How could they possibly deal with the four great families like this?

Therefore, Lin Luochen immediately asked everyone to retreat quickly.

However, before the words had faded, a shout came from below.

"What kind of petty thieves, how dare you!"

Following the sound, in the palace, a group of Great Wu Empire civil and military officials rose into the air one after another. The leader was precisely a person from the four great families.

All four of them exuded an aura at the Saint Realm level.

They looked coldly at Zhao Zhengping and the others on the deck.

Seeing this, Lin Luochen gritted her teeth and stepped forward.

"This has nothing to do with them."

"Get lost."

Lin Luochen was willing to risk her life to protect the lives of Zhao Zhengping and the others, but it was a pity that the people of the four great families didn't listen at all.

As for the Great Abyss envoy who was being rubbed on the ground by Xu Jie, at this time he also shouted with all his might.

"Save me!"

"Hmph, our Great Wu and Great Abyss are joined in marriage. No matter who you are, you will pay the price today."

Elder Zhang said coldly. If there was no explanation for today's matter, it was feared that the Great Abyss Empire would not let the matter rest.

For a time, a murderous intent had already surged in Elder Zhang's eyes. Regardless of what was said, this group of people had to be left behind; if necessary, they could be handed over to the Great Abyss Empire.

But just as Elder Zhang was preparing to take action, Lin Luochen's voice came.

"Release them, otherwise I will commit suicide on the spot. By then, you will have no way to explain it to the Great Abyss Empire either."

Lin Luochen's eyes were full of determination; it didn't look like she was joking at all.

If Elder Zhang really dared to take action against Zhao Zhengping and Xu Jie, she would absolutely commit suicide on the spot without hesitation.

Hearing this, Elder Zhang and the others had ugly expressions.

"You can try it. Let's see if you can commit suicide in front of me."

The murderous intent in his heart grew even stronger, and the threat in his words was undisguised. Regarding this, Lin Luochen gritted her teeth secretly and had already prepared herself.

However, just at this moment, Xu Jie, who had not spoken, suddenly said.

"Where did these cats and dogs come from? How about it, you are the ones forcing my Junior Sister to marry that foolish prince, right?"

As he spoke, he looked at the people from the four great families who were leading.

The four Saints were completely ignored by Xu Jie.

"Arrogant!"

"How dare you!"

"Little thief, you are courting death!"

Hearing Xu Jie's words, the four great families and the group of civil and military officials shouted angrily one after another.

Being pointed at and scolded by a junior, the anger in their hearts was self-evident.

But just as everyone was preparing to take action, inside the space spirit boat, a sword light flashed, and then, the Saint from the four great families who was standing at the very front was directly separated from his head.

In the palace, Lin Jun, who had been paying close attention to the changes in the situation, was full of conflict in his heart.

His eyes stared fixedly at the location of the two space spirit boats, and he muttered to himself.

"Is this the Dongzhou sect that my younger sister joined?"

He had already guessed the identity of Xu Jie and the others, but he hadn't expected that they would actually rush from Dongzhou to the Central Continent to rescue someone.

But soon he shook his head again. Even if they came, what could they do? They couldn't rescue her, and it was feared that even they themselves would die here.

A Dongzhou sect actually dared to contend with Central Continent forces; isn't this courting death?

Regarding the situation of the Daoyi Sect, Lin Jun had also specifically investigated it before, but that was all a matter of several years ago.

Sure enough, in the next second, following the order of Elder Zhang and the others, the group of experts in the court took action one after another.

Seeing this, Lin Jun's heart could be said to be full of conflict.

These people came to rescue Lin Luochen, but now they...

For a moment, Lin Jun even wished he could use the hidden foundation of the royal family, at least to send Zhao Zhengping and the others away safely.

But in the next second, the old eunuch on the side transmitted his voice via spiritual power without changing his expression.

"Your Majesty, if you take action now, the efforts and forbearance of the ancestors of the past generations will all be wasted. If you cannot bear small things, you will ruin great plans."

Taking action suddenly and exposing the royal family's foundation would indeed have a chance to protect Zhao Zhengping and the others.

But what about afterward? What should Lin Jun do? Once these things are exposed, the four great families will absolutely not let them go.

For the sake of their royal family's great cause, Lin Jun even sacrificed his own younger sister; at this time...

His fists were clenched tightly, his eyes staring fixedly at the two space spirit boats. A moment later, Lin Jun sighed deeply, his whole body seeming to have been drained of all strength, and in the end, he chose to give up.

This is the sorrow of the Great Wu royal family; forbearance and humiliation have always accompanied the emperors of the Great Wu royal family through the generations.

But just as Lin Jun gave up, a sword light flashed, and then, one of the Saints of the four great families was instantly killed in seconds.

Watching the blood stain the long sky, that sword aura came and went quickly, and as for that Saint, he didn't even have time to react.

For a time, Lin Jun's eyes widened.

"This, this, this..."

"Great Saint..."

Even the old eunuch on the side had an expression of disbelief. Although it was only for an instant, he had indeed felt an aura at the Great Saint level just now.

Moreover, to be able to kill a Saint Realm Great Completion expert in seconds with one sword, even a Saint Realm Perfect Completion expert could not do it; at the very least, it had to be at the Great Saint level.

He had completely not expected that there would be a Great Saint existence hidden in the team that the Daoyi Sect sent to rescue his younger sister.

A glimmer of excitement surged in his eyes, but it soon dimmed again.

Having a Great Saint holding down the fort was indeed unexpected, but Lin Jun knew very well that one Great Saint still couldn't change anything.

"One Great Saint is still not enough."

He sighed secretly. As for above the sky, at this time, everyone present was stunned on the spot, looking at the Tang family's space spirit boat, dumbfounded. ===== CHAPTER 1227 =====
