As Liang Yan approached, the defensive restrictions over the manor were completely activated. A colorful glow rose from the surroundings of the manor and quickly closed in the middle. In an instant, a huge canopy was formed, covering the entire manor.
in!
At the same time, streaks of sharp spiritual energy like crescent moons appeared in all directions, roaring from mid-air, all attacking the intruders.
Facing the defensive restrictions of the manor, Liang Yan's expression remained unchanged.
He pinched the magic formula in his hand, and three sword swords surrounded him at the same time. Any crescent blade that came within seven feet of him was chopped into pieces by him one by one.
Facing the colorful canopy that enveloped the entire manor, he raised his hand and waved, and the Mayfly Sword Pill turned into a streak of blue clouds, tearing a small opening on the top of the canopy, just enough for one person to pass through.
Whoosh!
Liang Yan activated the escape light, and like a slippery fish, he instantly got into the defensive confinement.
In the manor, the servants and guards originally watched the fight in mid-air with the mentality of watching the excitement. Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, they had already harmed themselves. One of them actually forced his way into the manor!
"Oops! There's an assassin!"
"Quick! Protect His Highness!"
Almost the moment Liang Yan broke through the defensive restrictions and broke into the manor, these guards reacted. Several leading monks immediately shouted loudly, and everyone started to take action. Some went to search Liang Yan's location, and some lined up.
The formation technique protects a palace in the middle.
Let's say that Liang Yan broke through the defensive restrictions of the manor with one sword, and after breaking into the manor at night, he immediately activated the "Tianji Pearl" in his body, completely covering up his aura.
When he landed on the ground and turned around, his whole person had become insignificant, as if he didn't exist at all.
In a place like this, Liang Yan did not dare to release his consciousness at will, and could only look around with his eyes.
The first thing you see is a quiet garden with a pond in the middle and a few peach trees around it. Although it is simple, it has a unique charm.
"It seems that I have arrived in someone else's backyard." Liang Yan thought to himself.
There were actually two reasons why he chose to break into this manor.
First, because this place is heavily guarded, the status of the people who live here should be high. Even though the Confucian God General has a high level of cultivation, he probably has to give the owner some face and does not dare to search at will.
The second reason is that there are too many monks in this house. There are at least several hundred people. Among them, there are three people above the Tongxuan realm, more than 20 people at the Jindan realm, and most of the remaining guards and servants are Juyuan.
In this environment, there are so many low-level monks, which is convenient for him to use the Tianji Pearl to fish in troubled waters.
Just as he was thinking about it, there were footsteps approaching outside the garden. Liang Yan's ears were sharp and he immediately hid behind a peach tree near the door.
After a while, a dashing female cultivator in white attire walked in.
Behind her were more than ten people, both men and women. They seemed to be monks who came to search. They carried detection magic weapons with them and began to look around as soon as they entered the garden.
"Search carefully for me. Don't miss any suspicious place! There are assassins here. If there is something wrong with His Highness, our lives will be at stake!" The woman in white shouted sternly.
"yes!"
The rest of the people responded and dispersed around in a tacit understanding. Some went behind the rockery, some went to explore under the pond, and some were practicing in the field, looking for any clues that might remain here.
These people had a clear division of labor and searched individually. Among them, a short man wearing a blue robe and a slightly childish appearance walked towards the peach tree where Liang Yan was.
He held an oil lamp in his hand, and a faint light emitted from the wick, illuminating the surrounding area of ten feet.
This oil lamp seemed ordinary, but Liang Yan, who was hiding behind the peach tree, knew that it was an extremely powerful detection magic weapon.
One step, two steps, three steps, just as the man in blue robe walked behind the peach tree, he suddenly felt something tapping him lightly on the back of his head!
The next moment, he felt his mind spinning, and then his vision went dark, and his whole body went limp.
But he didn't fall.
Liang Yan stretched out his hand to support the person, then pinched the person with one hand and put the person into the wooden house around his waist.
Next, the "Yuanmu Dao" spell was activated, and Liang Yan's appearance changed again, becoming exactly the same as the man in blue robe.
He used the Tianji Pearl to completely hide his own aura, and used the "Yuanmu Dao" spell to imitate the other party's aura. Then he moved his hand, grabbed the oil lamp left by the other party, and walked out from behind the tree as if nothing had happened.
In just a few breaths, no one in the garden could imagine that the companion who walked out from behind the peach tree was no longer himself.
Only the female cultivator in white clothes frowned slightly and looked towards Peach Tree.
"Li Xiaodian, did you find anything over there?"
"not yet."
Liang Yan didn't dare to say anything, he just shook his head to prevent himself from revealing any flaws.
"Continue the search and we must find the assassin who broke into the house!" the female cultivator in white said sternly.
"yes!"
Liang Yan responded, turned and walked to another corner, and like everyone else, began to search for "himself" in the garden.
The female cultivator in white attire is not low-level and has reached the late stage of Jindan. The people under her also have the cultivation level of Juyuan Realm. Unfortunately, they can't imagine that the target they are searching for is...
In fact, it’s right next to me!
After searching like this for a while, everyone was sure that the "assassin" was not hiding in the garden. The female cultivator in white pondered for a moment, and was about to issue an order to lead everyone to search elsewhere, but suddenly she saw a light coming from the sky above the manor.
Colorful glow exploded.
"This is a signal from His Highness, summoning us all to go forward."
The female cultivator in white looked serious. She did not continue the search, but ordered: "Let's go! Go to His Highness's palace!"
"yes!"
After hearing this, the rest of the people were a little curious, but without any hesitation at this moment, they all followed the female cultivator in white and rushed to the west of the manor.
Liang Yan was among the crowd, but he knew it very well in his heart.
Because at this moment, a huge spiritual consciousness has enveloped the entire house and began to scan every corner carefully.
And the owner of this spiritual consciousness is none other than the "Confucian Divine General", Ling Chongxiao!
The reason why the "His Highness" they called the crowd was probably because of a conflict with the "Confucian God General".
In fact, Liang Yan originally wanted to leave, but when he was hiding in the garden just now, he discovered that Ling Chongxiao had used his great supernatural power to create a barrier and cover the entire manor, in order to prevent him from escaping.
The only plan for now is to blend in with these servants, see if they can fish in troubled waters, and retreat quietly.
With this purpose in mind, Liang Yan silently followed the female cultivator in white and walked to the west of the manor.
In just a few moments, everyone arrived at "His Royal Highness"'s bedroom.
What I saw was a pink palace. In front of the palace was a white jade staircase. The steps were brightly lit. Hundreds of monks formed a formation, surrounding a tall woman in royal attire.
There were three people standing behind the woman, namely an elderly man wearing a Confucian robe, a thin and handsome man, and a petite and pretty beauty.
Without exception, these three people all have cultivation levels above the Tongxuan realm!
"is her!"
Liang Yan looked past the crowd and looked directly at the woman in palace attire who was surrounded by people. This woman was no stranger to him. She was none other than the sixth princess of Xuanyuan City, Xuanyuan Lingwei!
As for the old man in Confucian robes behind her, it was Zheng Gongbu who had saved her from the siege in Juxian Tower before.
"What a coincidence. I didn't expect that the 'Your Highness' they called was actually the Sixth Princess Xuanyuan Lingwei."
Liang Yan secretly thought to himself. He was currently hiding among the female cultivators in white, and used the Heavenly Secret Bead to cover his aura. He looked like an ordinary Juyuan Realm guard, and no one noticed him at all.
Xuanyuan Lingwei and everyone around her looked into the air.
At this moment, above the manor, the "Confucian God General" Ling Chongxiao was stepping into the void and slowly approaching.
"Your Highness, Sixth Highness, the general is now polite!"
Ling Chongxiao's tone was modest, and he raised his hands in mid-air, looking polite.
However, Xuanyuan Lingwei stepped aside and did not accept his salute. She sneered and said: "General Ling is one of the twelve divine generals under the father's throne. You don't have to bow to the prince when you see him. Ling Wei has a shallow cultivation and insufficient qualifications.
How dare you accept the general's courtesy?"
Ling Chongxiao's face stiffened slightly, but he soon returned to normal, still smiling gently and saying: "Your Highness, the Sixth Highness, is humbled. You have Xuanyuan bloodline, and your future achievements will definitely be higher than mine."
"You also know that I am of Xuanyuan bloodline!"
Before Ling Chongxiao finished speaking, he was interrupted sharply by Xuanyuan Lingwei: "General Ling broke into my mansion late at night. He clearly didn't take a weak woman like me into consideration. If it were the second brother's palace instead,
, do you still dare to act so boldly?"
"Princess, calm down."
The corners of Ling Chongxiao's eyes twitched, and he said with a smile: "I just saw someone forcing their way into the princess's mansion. I was worried about the safety of His Highness the Sixth Prince, so I impulsively chased him in."
Liang Yan mingled among the guards of the palace. Neither Xuanyuan Lingwei nor Ling Chongxiao noticed him. At this time, he heard the conversation between the two and couldn't help but secretly thought: "It seems that this 'Confucian God General' is originally
If we don’t deal with Xuanyuan Lingwei, they should belong to different camps, so I chose to hide here, it seems I made the right choice!"
Sure enough, Xuanyuan Lingwei raised her eyebrows and shouted: "On impulse? Worried about my safety? Is this why you used the 'Black Soul Realm' to cover the entire princess mansion?"
The sixth princess did not buy Ling Chongxiao's blame at all, and sneered: "General Ling, do you think this is your military tent camp, where you can come and seal it whenever you want?!"
"Princess, calm down! I don't mean this." Ling Chongxiao hurriedly explained: "It's just that the assassin has a high level of cultivation and is currently hiding in His Highness's manor. I'm worried that Your Highness will be injured, so I must find this assassin."
Just come out."
"Ling Chongxiao, it seems you still don't understand what I mean."
Xuanyuan Lingwei took a deep look at him and said in a deep voice: "This is my princess mansion, it is not a place that you can control. Even if an assassin sneaks in, it is my business. How can I, the sixth princess of Xuanyuan City, solve this problem?"
Can’t you be an assassin?”
"Also, you may have forgotten your father's decree. In order to show respect for the major chambers of commerce, Guangling City now only has one person, General Tianwei, to guard it. Not only did you enter the city privately, you also dared to break into my princess's mansion.
Isn’t it a bit arrogant?”
"this"
Hearing the words "Mighty Divine General", Ling Chongxiao's eyes narrowed slightly, and a trace of fear flashed in his eyes.
"General Ling, what you did today has crossed the line, why don't you retreat quickly?"
Seeing the other party's hesitation, Xuanyuan Lingwei immediately shouted out.
In mid-air, Ling Chongxiao's face looked uncertain. After a long time, he suddenly sighed softly and raised his hand to cast a spell.
The "Dark Soul Realm" that originally enveloped the entire Princess Mansion slowly dispersed under the night sky, and the last black thread was put into Ling Chongxiao's sleeve.
"Since His Highness said so, Ling is indeed meddling in his own business. I have disturbed His Highness today. I hope that His Highness will be magnanimous and not take this matter to heart." Ling Chongxiao said, cupping his hands.
"General Ling is welcome."
Xuanyuan Lingwei still looked lukewarm, but nodded slightly.
"The general has taken his leave."
Ling Chongxiao sighed, knowing that today it would be impossible to find the junior who destroyed his magical power, so he could only fold a fan in his hand, and his whole body turned into a black shadow, instantly blending into the night of Guangling City, heading towards the city
The direction outside is getting further and further away
When the aura of this "Confucian God General" completely disappeared, Xuanyuan Lingwei breathed a sigh of relief.
"Your Highness, the people on the Second Prince's side are paying less and less attention to you. Just now they dared to use magical powers to seal the entire princess's mansion. Will they do it again in the future?"
Behind Xuanyuan Lingwei, a petite and beautiful Xiu said angrily.
Her cultivation realm, like Zheng Gongbu's, is also in the middle stage of Tongxuan.
"Zishu, this matter is not as simple as you think. The second brother is now at the top of his game, and many of the twelve divine generals support him. No matter what happens, we must endure it." Xuanyuan Lingwei whispered.
said.
The petite female cultivator known as "Yew" stuck out her tongue, nodded and said, "I understand, Your Highness, I won't cause trouble!"
Xuanyuan Lingwei smiled slightly, glanced at everyone present, and said lightly: "That's the end of today's matter. You all should step aside."
"Your Highness, the assassin hasn't been found yet. Do you want to send more people near the palace?" someone asked.
"No need, Mr. Zheng, Zishan and the others are guarding here, so that person won't dare to cause trouble. Just go and search around the house to see if anyone suspicious has sneaked in." Xuanyuan Lingwei ordered.
"yes!"
Everyone present took the order and turned around and walked out of the square.
