Venerable Xi shouted loudly, and stepped in front of Li Yiru. He waved his arms quickly, creating hot and turbulent blue spiritual fire in the air, and fiercely faced the dense rain of arrows like a locust plague.
However, under the attack of jade-white arrows all over the sky, the powerful spiritual power of the spiritual master level turned out to be as fragile as a piece of paper. It was stabbed to pieces in a few times and collapsed.
The countless white arrows seemed to be unimpeded at all, and they continued to move forward without stopping.
It is indeed the Spirit-Breaking Arrow!
Venerable Xi's complexion changed. He realized that this kind of arrow could destroy spiritual power and could not confront him head-on. He hurriedly dodged left and right to temporarily avoid its attack.
However, the spirit-breaking arrows fired by Daqian's army were too many and too dense. Even though he reacted quickly, several arrows still scratched many blood marks on his arms and thighs. He grimaced in pain and shook his head. He almost lost control and almost fell from the air.
But more spirit-breaking arrows whizzed past him, whizzing straight towards the Immortal City armies.
Among the targets who suffered the blow, the one who bore the brunt was undoubtedly the Empress of the Great Qian Dynasty, Li Yiru.
As the number one figure in the defense force of Qunxian City, she was sitting quietly on a small hill at this time. It could be said that she was at the highest position in the entire team.
The emperor's personal participation in the battle would undoubtedly greatly improve the morale of the soldiers, but it also exposed her to a very dangerous situation.
"Raise your shield!"
General Xue, with white eyebrows and white beard, wearing silver armor, raised his sword high and shouted.
Dozens of military masters jumped up one after another, some stepped on the shoulders of others, and built a human wall several feet high and wide not far from the emperor.
Each of them held a gleaming silver shield in their hands. The moment they raised it at the same time, the dazzling light reflected from all sides, making the snow-white arrows in the sky even more crystal clear, as if they were flying from the sky. Snow is romantic and beautiful.
"Bang! Bang Bang!"
The spirit-breaking arrows fell on the black shield like raindrops, making bursts of crisp sounds. Under the violent impact, the human wall was like a lonely boat on the sea on a stormy night, teetering on the edge, as if it would be completely washed away at any time.
"Yi Ru, go down and hide for a while!"
On a low couch next to Li Yiru, Shangguan Mingyue looked solemn and said worriedly, "Your goal is too big and you can easily get hurt."
"Sister Mingyue, you go."
Unexpectedly, Li Yiru shook his head and said firmly, "I want to stay."
"Why bother?"
A trace of surprise flashed in Shangguan Mingyue's eyes, and he said with confusion, "If it is to boost morale, you have already done a good job. It is not a wise move to continue to expose yourself."
"As long as you stay here, you can let that beast see you."
Li Yiru's eyes shot out with an extremely sharp cold light, and a rare hint of hatred appeared on his soft and pretty face, "He will come to me."
"Is it Tai...Li Yan?"
There was a hint of surprise on Shangguan Mingyue's pink face, "He is a coward as timid as a mouse. He may not be involved in danger himself, right?"
"He will."
Li Yiru's eyes flashed with determination, and she said word by word, "I am his biological sister, and no one knows him better than me. In order to prove that he is more suitable to be an emperor than Third Brother and me, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, he will
He will try his best to capture me with his own hands."
"I see."
Shangguan Mingyue nodded slightly, thoughtfully. After a moment, he turned to look at Zhao Shuangyan on the other side and said, "City Lord Zhao, I will stay with Yiru. You go down first to avoid the limelight. Don't let the broken spirit arrow hurt you."
.”
"Sister, I am the Lord of the Immortal City after all."
Zhao Shuangyan's beautiful eyes were looking forward to it, and she smiled sweetly and said, "If the guests don't leave, how can there be any reason to leave first? If you want to leave, just stay together!"
"If that's the case, then just keep them all!"
Li Xuefei, who had a big belly, interrupted and said, "It's just Li Yan, why are you afraid of him?"
"That's what the princess said!"
Suzaku, dressed in fiery red, held little Nian Nian in one hand and waved the whip fiercely with the other hand, saying bitterly, "I am about to kill this rebellious beast and avenge my father-in-law!"
Yu Xuanji, who was also holding the baby, said nothing, but nodded repeatedly, with a blush of eagerness on his fair face.
"Kill the emperor?"
Xuan Ming, who had a bulging belly, sneered and said, "It's quite interesting."
She has been married to Xue Pingxi for several years, but her temperament has not softened much. She is still fierce and willful. She unscrupulously puts the words "kill the emperor" on her lips, regardless of the fact that there is a female emperor like Li Yiru sitting next to her.
.
"Why do you want to stay with the emperor?"
In the corner, Jiang Nini hugged the soft and tender Dabao tightly, looked at Ye Yaoyao with a puzzled face and said, "Isn't it very dangerous here?"
"What do you know?"
Ye Yaoyao tilted her head arrogantly and said, "Because the emperor is here, it is heavily guarded. It seems dangerous, but in fact it is the safest."
"Is it strict...?"
When Jiang Nini heard this, she couldn't help but look around, her eyes sweeping over the women such as Ye Yaoyao, Li Yiru, Li Xuefei, and Zhuque.
Loli, girls, pregnant women, mothers...
What came into view was a proper army of women, with different ages and various identities. On the hill that Ye Yaoyao called "heavily guarded", there were Yingying Yanyan, chirping, not so much a battlefield, but more like a battlefield.
It would be more appropriate to say it is a temple fair.
Looking at Suzaku, who was waving her long whip and shouting for revenge one moment, but was throwing away her weapon in a hurry the next moment, holding little Niannian in her arms and rocking her to sleep, Jiang Nini was speechless for a while, and couldn't help but tighten her hands.
Dabao looked up at the sky with full vigilance.
Never let Dabao get hurt!
She bit her lip gently, her eyes shining with determination.
"boom!"
A loud noise woke up the women's army from whispering, and they all turned their heads to look.
I saw that one soldier's shield was completely penetrated by the spirit-breaking arrow, nailing him and his shield to the ground. No matter how he wailed and waved his hands and feet, he could not move his body at all.
"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"
What followed was the second, third, and even fourth loud noises. The originally indestructible shield-wielding human wall seemed to have changed its material. It seemed to be more fragile than tofu, and it was easily broken through by the spirit-breaking arrow. , were nailed to the ground one after another, and the screams floated between heaven and earth, one after another, lingering for a long time.
In just a few breaths, the originally airtight shield wall was riddled with holes and loopholes, completely exposing the women's soldiers on the hill.
Beyond the almost paralyzed shield wall, one can see huge and majestic chariots being pushed onto the coast from the ship by the Daqian officers. They are lined up neatly in a row, carrying dense white arrows on them, like A group of bloodthirsty and ferocious beasts are ready to bring carnage and destruction to the world at any time.
The arrow shines brightly in the sunlight, emitting a terrifying and terrifying light.
"It's the Soul-breaking Chariot!"
Shangguan Mingyue's expression changed slightly, she turned to look at Li Yiru and said, "Yiru, you can't lose your life in vain even if you use your body as bait!"
"You guys retreat first, I'll wait." Li Yiru's smooth and tender cheeks had lost all color, but there was still a stubborn look in his delicate eyes. Facing the chariots and archers who were watching eagerly in the distance, Li Yiru was stunned. Don’t retreat.
"Puff puff!"
One after another, the bodies of the soldiers were mercilessly pierced by the spirit-breaking arrows. The bright red blood kept jumping into the sky and scattered in all directions, like one small fountain after another.
"Qiang Qiang!"
Li Yiru's face became increasingly pale, and she gently played the guqin in front of her with her slender jade fingers. The sonorous sound of the piano turned into dazzling spiritual blades, soaring into the sky to meet the rain of arrows coming from the sky.
However, the sharp sound of the piano, which had once killed the top spiritual master, was instantly dispersed in front of the massive spirit-shattering arrows, leaving no resistance at all.
Looking at the arrows whizzing towards him with murderous intent, Li Yiru's face suddenly turned pale, and a deep sense of despair could not stop welling up in his heart.
"Dang!" "Dang!" "Dang!"
Just when the words "My life is at stake" came to her mind, a graceful red figure suddenly jumped in front of her. The black stick in her hand flew swiftly, and she cleverly shot several spirit-breaking arrows aimed at the empress. Block it with one block.
"Sister Mingyue!"
Seeing clearly that the person who came to the rescue was Shangguan Mingyue, Li Yiru couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief, only to feel lingering fear in his heart and a faint glint in his eyes.
"Everyone used to say that the third princess was easy-going and approachable."
Shangguan Mingyue turned around and smiled at her, pretending to be relaxed and said, "Only I know that Yi Ru has a stubborn temper that is rare in the world. Once he makes up his mind, not even ten dragons and ten elephants can pull him back."
But from her pale face and slightly trembling right arm, it could still be seen that fending off several spirit-breaking arrows just now had obviously caused a great burden on her.
The ability of the soul-eating coral to absorb spiritual power is almost incomprehensible to practitioners below saints. Even though Shangguan Mingyue has practiced Tianyan Calculation, she can predict the trajectory of arrows in advance and block them forcefully, but they are still consumed.
A lot of spiritual and physical energy.
"Yes, I'm sorry."
Li Yiru's pretty face turned red and she couldn't help but lower her head in shame.
"ah!!!"
At this moment, several soft and clear exclamations suddenly sounded from behind everyone.
