Chapter 1017 - There is actually an Expert? (1/2)
Translator: Chaos_ Editor: Chaos_
“It is Nian Jiu?” The currently condensing incarnation of Marquis Ardent Fire trembled. He could not help but grit his teeth, “Who is so daring to oppose my Ying Shan Clan?”
Assassinating the outstanding talent Prince Xue Ying was equivalent to slapping the Ying Shan Clan on the face!
The Ying Shan Clan would certainly not let things rest!
Under normal circumstances, there were not many organizations that dared to be so foolish. Nevertheless, an assassination still happened today, and there was even this devil called Nian Jiu.
Nian Jiu was originally a nine-headed venomous snake that was born as a native from the Black Devil Great Lake. As he began training in ancient cultivation, Nian Jiu discovered that he had talent in forming avatars, and could produce nine in total! As long as one survived, the other eight avatars could easily be refined back over time. Hence, by relying on this talent, Nian Jiu was not afraid of risking his life as an assassin.
After all, there were not many assassins who would kill without paying heed to one’s own life. Either they were death warriors, or they were experts like Nian Jiu who had unique techniques.
“Protect the prince!”
The two Black Stream Cloud Wolves turned into humans. Furthermore, a total of 98 black-armored soldiers appeared in the surrounding too. These two Black Stream Cloud Wolves–one was in black armor, and the other with a dark gold armor forming over his body. They totaled a hundred and soon established an enormous combat formation. “Hong long long~”
Black clouds formed and wrapped around the carriage. And these hundred soldiers were scattered amidst the black darkness. Their armor grew brighter, and soon, this energy became interconnected and formed an entity.
“You dare to assassinate Prince Xue Ying? What gall!” The leading dark-gold-armored captain revealed a pair of sharp-clawed weapons. He angrily roared; his voice reverberated through the world.
“Ardent Fire Army Hidden Guards? Haha, who would have thought that one of the three Hidden Guards from the Ardent Fire Army would be protecting this child.” The six thin teenagers laughed. They continued advancing, “Let me see how formidable all of you are.”
“Kill!”
The dark-gold-armored captain shouted. The rolling black cloud congealed into an enormous four-hooved mutated beast. The captain acted as the claws of this beast, and every attack was struck out frantically.
“What? There is actually a team of Ardent Fire Army Hidden Guards keeping close to that Ying Shan Xue Ying all the while?” Qian Gan Xue who was watching the battle from the distant pavilion turned pale after seeing that, “He is honestly too biased to keep a group of Hidden Guards in the Eden Treasure just to protect that child.”
This was indeed the worst situation ever.
A team of Hidden Guards.
The captain of the Hidden Guards was at God Yuan Palace fifth level strength. The other members were all at the Unity realm too. The complete combat array when they worked together would allow them to erupt with a God Yuan Palace seventh level strength–that was sufficient for them to fight against a Primal Chaos giant.
…
Ying Shan Lie Hu felt his legs turning soft. He was still consoling Xue Ying who sat beside him: “My son, don’t worry too much. They can’t harm you at all.”
The female attendant Yan Yu was also clenching her fist by the side. She was prepared to protect her prince with her life.
In reality, they were only True Gods and facing against a battle at this level, they were entirely useless.
Actually.
No matter who it was, the assassin Old Devil Nian Jiu, the team led by the Black Stream Cloud Wolf captain, Tian Yi Zhi or even Marquis Ardent Fire and the master of that devil who was being kept aware of the proceedings of this assassination were concerned about the whole affair. They felt their hearts tightening as things unfold.
Only one person! He might be nervous on the surface, yet he remained remarkably calm inside.
That was Xue Ying.
‘Assassination?’ Xue Ying sat on the carriage watching the battle, ‘Oh, this assassin could form six avatars. But he is merely at the Unity realm yet he could form avatars already? It should not be an avatar technique belonging to the void lineage. Thus, it must be an ancient cultivation talent.’
‘But he is quite astounding. Each of the avatars seems to contain power at the God Yuan Palace sixth level. The six avatars even have a combined technique that enabled them to erupt with power at the God Yuan Palace seventh level.’
‘Wuu…’
‘So it seems the two Black Stream Cloud Wolves of mine, one is the captain of the Hidden Guards and the other an ordinary Hidden Guard? There are also 98 other Hidden Guards that remain in the Eden Treasure waiting for orders? It seems Marquis Ardent Fire really favor me a lot.’ Xue Ying sighed inwardly, ‘I always thought Elder Tian and the others are my main protectors. Who would have thought that there are guards in the light just as guards are hiding in the dark? The nine personal guards led by Elder Tian seems to unleash strength at the God Yuan Palace sixth level. And the entire team of Hidden Guards is much stronger than them.’
One guarding him in the light and the other defending him in the dark.
Xue Ying continued watching the battle between the Hidden Guards with Old Devil Nian Jiu. Both parties were fighting extremely frantically. Old Devil Nian Jiu could not break through for a moment too: ‘It seems that the techniques in the Realm Heart Great Land are more profound than those in the primal chaos void. Just this combat array is much more efficient.’
In the primal chaos void, a fifth level Unity expert working together with 99 other Unity experts could not unleash power at the seventh level.
But it was possible here on the Realm Heart Great Land. These combat formation techniques seemed to be even more profound than the innate combat arrays utilized by the Destruction Devils.
…
“Qian Gan Xue, who would have thought that there is a team of Hidden Guards protecting that child constantly. I can’t break through it, so this mission will likely end up as a failure.” Nian Jiu communicated to Qian Gan Xue.
“No!”
The eyes of Qian Gan Xue turned red.
He mobilized the death warriors under his master, yet in reality, he did not mind paying a greater price to find Old Devil Nian Jiu and invited him to act. This was his most crucial trump card, yet Old Devil Nian Jiu who could unleash a power at the seventh level, could still not break through the defenses of the other party.
‘This Old Devil Nian Jiu is too cowardly. Hearsay he has nine avatars in total, yet he only uses six avatars at most for each assassination. The other three avatars are hidden at some unknown places.’ The eyes of Qian Gan Xue were brimming with madness.
‘I couldn’t care less.’
