Kan Yue took Xiaoyu to wander around the city lord's mansion. As night fell, Xiaoyu became a little tired and looked a little depressed.
Kan Yue knelt down and said, "What's wrong with Xiaoyu? Why does she look a little unhappy?"
Xiaoyu pouted and said: "Sister in red, why isn't eldest brother coming back?"
"Xiaoyu misses her big brother?" Kan Yue touched her head and said.
"Don't you think about it, sister in red?" Xiaoyu asked, tilting her head.
"Think about it!" Kan Yue retracted her palm, gently picked up Xiaoyu, and said: "He said he would be back in the shortest possible time. I think it will be in the next few days! It is also possible that he will be back tomorrow.
."
Xiaoyu was still a little unhappy and said viciously: "Big brother, this big liar, promised to take me with him, but I didn't expect him to run away directly. I will take care of him when he comes back."
Her chubby face and fierce expression not only did not look angry at all, but also looked a little cute, so Kan Yue couldn't help but reach out and pinch her little face.
Xiaoyu reached out and patted off Kan Yue's jade hand, and said with a bitter face: "Sister in red, you pinched my face again."
Kan Yue smiled and said: "I'm done scolding you, don't be angry now!"
Xiaoyu chuckled, stretched out her little hand, grabbed Kan Yue's black hair, and played with it.
At this moment, Kan Jie came from the opposite side. Seeing this, Xiaoyu sweetly shouted: "Sister Kan Jie!"
Kan Jie quickly stepped forward and rubbed Xiaoyu's hair, causing Xiaoyu to grimace again.
Kan Jie also spoke at this time: "Sister, is there any movement in the royal family?"
Kan Jie shook his head and said: "According to the reports from the spies, there is no movement from the royal family for the time being. As long as the news of Chen Tian's absence in Zhenguancheng is not leaked, the royal family should not take action against us for the time being."
Kan Yue nodded and said, "I don't know what's going on with Chen Tian."
Didn't you send a message to him? Kan Jie asked.
"It was sent, but I didn't get a response. It must be because I was too far away to receive it!" Kan Yue said slowly, with a trace of worry on his face.
"Don't worry, with Chen Tian's ability, everything will be fine." Kan Jie could only comfort him like this.
Kan Yue nodded, and then said: "It's getting late, sister, you should go back and rest first!"
"Okay, you guys should rest early." After saying that, Kan Jie was about to turn around and go back to his courtyard.
But as soon as she turned around, her expression suddenly changed, because she noticed several terrifying auras coming rapidly towards the City Lord's Mansion. According to her induction, the strength of each aura was not inferior to hers, that is to say,
The weakest masters of those auras are all at the ninth level of sword control.
Seeing the change in Kan Jie's face, Kan Yue quickly asked: "What's wrong?"
Before Kan Jie responded, she noticed those auras. For a moment, her face suddenly changed, and she frowned and said, "How could there be such terrifying auras coming towards the City Lord's Mansion?"
"Could it be someone Chen Tian found?" Kan Jie asked.
"Impossible, if it is the person Chen Tian found, he must be among them, but he is not among these breaths." Kan Yue immediately objected.
At this moment, a figure came quickly and came to Kan Yue and the others in an instant. He said with a solemn face: "General, Your Royal Highness, there are some terrifying auras coming towards us. They are not only enemies but also friends."
."
"We have noticed it too." Kan Jie nodded and then continued: "In this case, Xu Shu and I will go and take a look. You and Xiaoyu will stay here and don't go anywhere."
"I'll go with you!" Kan Yue said.
Kan Jie shook his head and said, "No, you just stay here. If it's a friend, it's okay. If it's an enemy, you can't change anything if you go."
Kan Yue gritted her teeth and finally compromised: "Okay, then be careful!"
Kan Jie and the others nodded, then flew away in the air and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Kan Yueyu clasped her hands, looked at the direction the two were leaving, and secretly prayed: "I hope it's not the worst outcome."
…
Kan Jie and Xu Shu walked quickly through the void, getting closer and closer to the auras, and their expressions gradually became serious.
Finally, the two of them saw the owners of those auras from a distance. Looking at the ten figures approaching quickly in front of them, they stopped and stared straight ahead.
In the blink of an eye, the ten figures came less than ten meters in front of Kan Jie and the two. They also stopped and looked at Kan Jie and the two quietly.
Kan Jie frowned and asked, "Who are you, and what are you doing in Zhenguancheng at night?"
Those ten figures were all wrapped in black robes, and Kan Jie couldn't see their faces at all, but her intuition told her that they came with bad intentions.
Upon hearing Kan Jie's inquiry, one of the ten figures stepped forward and said, "Princess, long time no see!"
Kan Jie's face suddenly darkened, he stared at the man and said, "Dark Guard - Yiying."
"Long time no see, I didn't expect that the eldest princess would still remember this subordinate." The man named Yiying said, cupping his hands.
Kan Jie's face was as cold as ice and he said coldly: "If you can come here, we are not on the same page, so why be so hypocritical."
"The eldest princess is wrong. Although our positions are different, you are still the eldest princess in my heart." Yiying said again.
Kan Jie sneered, glanced at the nine people around Yi Ying, and said with a sneer: "One-tenth of the dark guards have come. It seems that he is determined to kill us!"
"Princess, the emperor also has his own difficulties. He has to think about the tens of millions of people in the country, so..."
"Stop talking nonsense, let's fight if you want!" Kan Jie interrupted Yi Ying's words in a cold voice, and a heavy halberd instantly appeared in her hand, pointing at the ten people in front of her.
"Princess, I'm sorry!" Yiying took a step back and said, then stretched out his finger and moved forward a little. The nine people beside him rushed out in an instant, surrounding Kan Jie and the two of them.
Kan Jie didn't hesitate, he directly picked up the heavy halberd and rushed out, sweeping the halberd straight towards the two people in front of him.
The two of them teamed up to slap the heavy halberd, and the heavy halberd that Kan Jie swept out was deflected by the two of them. Then they punched the heavy halberd, and Kan Jie was shocked and fell back.
They didn't give any chance. Taking advantage of Kan Jie's retreat, they all joined forces and struck Kan Jie with nine palm prints.
They did not plan to attack one by one, but attacked together, preparing to kill Kan Jie and others in the shortest possible time.
As soon as Kan Jie stabilized his body, he saw nine palm prints coming from all around. Knowing that he could not resist it, Kan Jie dropped rapidly and barely managed to avoid the palm prints of several people. Then he stepped on the air with the sole of his foot and raised his halberd to kill again.
Go up.
Xu Shu was also afraid of hitting the nearest person with his palm, but he was easily blocked by that person. After all, Xu Shu was only at the eighth level of sword control. Facing a strong man who was one level higher than himself, it was still difficult to cause harm to him.
.
After the man knocked back Xu Shu with a palm, he did not join the team besieging Kan Jie. Instead, he chased after Xu Shu, who was knocked back by him, and wanted to deal with Xu Shu first.
But Xu Shu is not a vegetarian. Even if he cannot defeat him, he will not be defeated in a short period of time. The two fight back and forth, and eventually a stalemate appears, and no one can do anything to the other.
But Kan Jie's side was different. She faced eight strong men of the same level as herself. She had no chance of winning. She couldn't even hold a brief stalemate. She was beaten back by several people. If this continues,
, you will be defeated within ten breaths.
At this time, Kan Yue, who was quietly waiting for news in the city lord's mansion, suddenly noticed some strange aura fluctuations coming from the front, and that kind of fluctuations would only occur during a battle.
Kan Yue's expression suddenly changed when she noticed this fluctuation. She put Xiaoyu down and warned, "Just stay here and don't go anywhere."
After saying that, she didn't have time to think about anything else, she just dodged and rushed towards the direction where Kan Jie and the others left.
Xiaoyu stood there with a confused look on her face. When she came to her senses, Kan Yue had disappeared.
She tilted her head and thought for a while, but she still didn't listen to Kan Yue's instructions, and quickly chased Kan Yue through the void in the direction he left.
Kan Jie here was covered in injuries, and her white shirt was stained with blood, but she was still struggling to resist the attacks of several people.
But the power of one person is limited after all. When several people joined forces to attack again, Kan Jie resisted with all his strength, but he was ultimately defeated. He spurted out a large mouthful of blood and flew backwards.
Seeing this, Yiying said slowly: "Princess, I'm sorry!"
Then a long sword with gleaming cold light appeared in his hand, and his figure disappeared directly from the place. When he reappeared, he was already within ten meters of Kan Jie.
The long sword in his hand stabbed Kan Jie's abdomen without hesitation. Once the sword hit, Kan Jie would have no chance of surviving.
"General!" Xu Shu, who was in a stalemate in the distance, saw this scene. He wanted to rescue but couldn't get away at all. His eyes were splitting, but there was nothing he could do.
Just when the long sword in Yiying's hand was about to stab Kan Jie, a flash of white light flashed, and Yiying couldn't help but close his eyes. It was during this brief closing of his eyes that the long sword he thrust out was struck by a sharp sword.
The sword hit him, and the original fatal blow was missed, grazing Kan Jie's shirt and leaving a gash in his shirt.
Kan Jie also took advantage of this opportunity to put some distance between himself and Yiying.
Yiying's face looked a little ugly. He turned to look to the side and saw a red shadow approaching quickly. In the blink of an eye, he came to Kan Jie's side, and the sword that missed his long sword also flew back to the man's hand.
Kan Jie staggered, and Kan Yue who came over quickly reached out to support her. She turned her head and glanced at Kan Yue, and said angrily: "Why are you here? Let's go quickly!"
With that said, she wanted to push Kan Yue, but she was already seriously injured and couldn't do it.
Kan Yue held her arm and said, "I've been here since I came, and now I can't leave even if I want to."
"Little princess, long time no see!" At this time, Yiying opposite said slowly.
Kan Yue couldn't help but frowned and said, "Do you know me?"
"They are dark guards." Kan Jie said from the side.
"Dark Guards!" Kan Yue was shocked. Although she had never seen the Dark Guards, she had heard of them. The total salary of the Dark Guards was only one hundred people, but the strength of these one hundred people should not be underestimated.
The weakest ones are all at the fifth level of sword control, and no one knows the strongest ones.
They are the dead soldiers trained by Emperor Panning himself. They can also be said to be the trump card of the royal family. They hide in the darkness all year round, perform some secret missions, and rarely appear in front of people. I didn't expect that person to send them out this time. No wonder
The spies in the imperial city did not find them.
After learning that they were dark guards, Kan Yue's face became solemn, and she stepped forward to protect Kan Jie behind her, pointing the long sword diagonally at Yiying.
At this time, the other eight people stepped forward again to surround Kan Yue and the other two, leaving them no chance to escape.
"Since the two princesses are here, it saves me a lot of time." Yiying stood behind everyone and looked at Kan Yue and said.
Kan Yue said nothing and looked at the eight people around him coldly.
"Take action to avoid a long night with too many dreams." Yiying ordered.
As soon as he finished speaking, he couldn't help but frown, because there was a fiery breath approaching from a distance. Others also noticed the breath and turned around to look.
Kan Yue's expression changed. She didn't expect Xiaoyu to chase her. Now it was impossible for her to go back because Yiying and others had already discovered her and would never let her leave.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for Xiaoyu's figure to appear in front of everyone.
Seeing so many people in front of her, Xiaoyu hurriedly stopped and looked at everyone strangely. Then she stretched out her little hand and slapped a palm print, quickly hitting a dark guard with a flaming palm print.
Seeing that it was a slap from a child, the man smiled disdainfully and casually stretched out his hand to block the palm print.
Yiying frowned and quickly reminded: "Don't be careless!"
But it was too late. The flame palm print had already collided with the man's outstretched palm. As soon as it came into contact with the flame palm print, the man's face suddenly changed and he wanted to take back his palm, but the flame had already destroyed his palm.
If your palm is set on fire, even if you take it back, it will be useless.
"Ah!" The man cried out in pain, trying to use the sword's energy to disperse the flames, but the sword's energy was ignited as soon as it came into contact with the flame.
In an instant, the flames burned along his arms and onto his body, and in the blink of an eye, the man became a burning man.
Screams continued to come out of his mouth, but the flames on his body grew stronger and stronger. As the fear in his heart increased sharply, he continued to gather the sword energy to dispel the flames, but what he didn't know was that the flames
What I like the most is the Jian Gang Qi. Using Jian Gang Qi to dispel it will only make it burn hotter and stronger.
The faces of the people around him also changed drastically, and they all stayed away from him, not daring to get close at all for fear of getting burned.
Yiying's face hidden under the black robe was extremely gloomy. He wanted to step forward but was afraid of the flames. He could only watch the man wail in pain in the flames.
Before he came, he knew something about this kind of flame and knew how terrifying it was, but what he didn't know was that this kind of flame could use sword energy as fuel, and what he didn't know was that Xiaoyu could also use this kind of flame.
Flame, according to the information he got, only Chen Tian can use this kind of flame.
The man's wails became smaller and smaller. In less than ten breaths, he stopped screaming, the flames on his body slowly extinguished, and he turned into a pile of fly ash, which dissipated directly as a breeze blew by.
