Cen Yizi drew out the Qingfeng Mingyue Sword. At the moment the swords intertwined, the Qingfeng Mingyue Sword collided with the guard's silver sword, making a deafening sound.

The intense recoil force made Cen Yizi's arms numb instantly, and he had lost the ability to resist.

The guard swung his sword again, and just when Cen Yizi thought he was finished, the ground suddenly shook, and thick tree roots and vines quickly stretched out from under the floor, entangled the guard's legs.

The guard looked in the direction of the vines and found that it was a spell cast by the young master of the Chu family.

"I didn't expect that Young Master Chu wasn't poisoned either."

Chu Zhenghong originally wanted to surrender to the king and save his life, but he didn't expect Chu Ying to jump out directly.

The situation suddenly became complicated. Seeing that he had no way to retreat, he had to quickly draw his sword and stand beside his daughter.

Seeing this, another guard on the king's left put his hand on the Qingfeng sword at his waist, ready to step forward to help.

But the guard immediately raised his hand: "Wait!" His voice was filled with a hint of arrogance: "The head of the Chu family is the weakest one. There is one Jindan stage, two foundation building stage, I am enough."

"Good!" The king clapped his hands, a flicker of excitement in his eyes: "Then I'll give you a chance. If you can kill them on your own, I'll reward you handsomely!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" The guard saluted with a fist, his eyes gleaming. "But I'm afraid this move of yours will blow the roof off."

"It doesn't matter!" Fu Zhanxiong waved his hand, his dragon robe sleeves fluttering: "The king also wants to see your strength."

"it is good!"

As he spoke, the guard formed a hand seal with one hand, and the next moment, a deafening roar of water erupted from the hall. Countless jets of water rose from the ground, bursting through the roof like a dragon emerging from the sea. Tiles rained down, and within the water jets, the shadows of ferocious aquatic beasts could be vaguely seen, their power terrifying.

Chu Zhenghong looked up at the water column that covered the sky, his pupils suddenly shrank, and his legs trembled uncontrollably.

It's over, he thought with a wry smile, it would be better to just admit defeat, at least I can keep my body intact.

"Prepare to die!" The guard shouted loudly and waved his hand violently. Three water jets quickly twisted into sharp water drills and pounced on the three people like lightning.

The water column was like the sharp claws of a ferocious beast, rushing forward with a roar.

They hurriedly raised their swords to fight back, and the sharp blades made contact with the water column, making a harsh metal collision sound. However, they did not expect that the water column would not hit them head-on, but would instantly circle around behind them, like a wandering poisonous snake, cunning and swift.

When the drill tip was about to pierce the bodies of the three people, the water column suddenly changed drastically, as if controlled by some powerful force, and quickly solidified into ice.

"Bang!" The moment the ice shattered, the powerful reaction force hit the guard's chest like a thrown hammer, knocking him directly against the wall, making a muffled sound.

Blood gushed out, staining the breath from his mouth red. The guard's body swayed, and he slid down the wall with difficulty, letting out a painful gasp: "Puff!"

There was astonishment in his eyes, and he muttered in a low voice: "Impossible...Impossible!" How could three people have such tremendous power?

"Who!" the guard roared in frustration, gripping the hilt of his sword tightly and looking around vigilantly.

The icy fog dissipated, revealing a beautiful figure standing in front of the three people.

She was wearing a light green robe, and an inexplicable aura emanated from her body, like a blooming ice flower.

The guard rubbed his eyes. Isn't this the Crown Princess of Yun Kingdom whom he had seen before? Why is she still here?

Fu Zhanxiong's face instantly turned gloomy, a look of shock and anger flashed across his face. He looked at Jiang Yingxue fiercely and said in a harsh voice: "No wonder your two families are so rebellious. It turns out that you have been colluding with the Yun Kingdom for a long time, right!"

Jiang Yingxue sneered, "Don't spit bloody words here. Even if the emperor wanted to attack Canglan Kingdom, my father would definitely not go to the war."

Fu Zhanxiong rubbed his brows and said, "I never thought that a beauty like you is a flower with thorns. Well, killing one is killing, killing two is also killing, so let's kill them all!"

After saying that, he gave a look to the guard beside him, and the remaining three guards pounced on him like wild beasts.

Jiang Yingxue stared at them closely, a hint of coldness flashed in her eyes, and then she turned her wrist calmly.

The bracelet on her wrist glowed with light and instantly transformed into the Buzhou Sword.

The sword was filled with chilling energy, its edge incomparable. She used the Buzhou Sword Technique, fighting alongside Cen Yizhi and the Chu family father and daughter. The four of them worked in perfect harmony, barely holding off this wave of attacks.

The clanging of swords echoed endlessly, resounding throughout the entire hall. Every time the swords clashed, a violent gust of wind erupted in the air, vibrating the surrounding decorations and leaving the ground covered in deep sword marks.

But the three opponents were all in the Nascent Soul stage. Even though Jiang Yingxue was in the Nascent Soul stage, she had to try her best to deal with them. Her body was almost forced to retreat by the sword energy. The clash of swords made her breath become heavier and heavier.

Although she had the Lanxu technique as a backing and her defense was almost impeccable, she still had a hard time fighting.

Each swing of the sword required a large amount of spiritual energy, especially since she had to take into account Cen Yizhi and the Chu family father and daughter. She knew that if she was careless, any of the three could be killed.

Jiang Yingxue felt a surge of anxiety. If this continued, while she herself would be safe, the three people around her would likely be in danger. Especially since the three guards' swordsmanship was becoming increasingly fierce, and Cen Yizhi and the Chu family father and daughter were gradually losing their strength.

At this moment, the guard who had been slumped against the wall seemed to have regained some strength. He moved his shoulders and neck, gently pinched them with his fingers, and then suddenly stood up, landing heavily on the ground.

"It's over..." Jiang Yingxue's heart tightened and her eyes quickly swept over the remaining three guards.

If there are four people in the Nascent Soul stage, their chances of winning are zero.

I saw four guards standing in a row, with their hands raised high, and their hand gestures became extremely coordinated.

The spiritual energy in the air suddenly changed, and the air currents around them became violently turbulent. Their aura instantly condensed into a powerful force, gradually gathering into a huge vortex, as if to tear apart everything around it.

It seems that the option A task I chose at that time was the easiest.

For options like C that directly grant you incredible cultivation, the corresponding tasks are indeed incredible...

If I don't allow myself to summon the ice dragon, won't I be dead?

Forget it. I can’t complete the task anyway, but at least I can’t let anyone die.

Just when Jiang Yingxue thought she was doomed and had to summon the ice dragon, a familiar voice suddenly sounded in her ears.

"Everyone, retreat, or I will kill him."
