116: Chapter 116 Wife Saves the Day

Yan Linfei had just steadied her footing when Ouyang Miaomiao transformed into a blurred afterimage.

She flashed instantly in front of Ouyang Ling and Ouyang Huamei.

Blocking with her long sword, she shielded the two of them behind her.

"Sister Ling, Huamei, don't be afraid!"

The situation on Xiang Tian's side was not optimistic.

"Kid, this is the only woman you have left to protect!" A Man in black saw this, turned his head, and grinned hideously at Xiang Tian.

"If you have the guts, come over and die yourself; don't drag such a delicate beauty down with you!"

As the words fell, the four men in black had already formed an encirclement.

They trapped Xiang Tian and Yan Linfei in the center.

Previously, Ouyang Miaomiao had shared the pressure.

Now that only Yan Linfei, a Martial Emperor Realm expert, remained, the men in black immediately felt much more relaxed.

Yan Linfei, however, began to feel the strain.

She had to divide her attention to look out for Xiang Tian, making it difficult to fully unleash her strength.

After exchanging a few blows, she felt her palms go numb and her Qi and blood churn.

These men in black were coveting her beauty and had not delivered lethal blows.

Otherwise, given her current state, her life would have been lost long ago.

"Lin Fei, I will keep your kindness in my heart." Xiang Tian took a deep breath.

Since his Rebirth to this Lingyun Continent, he had repeatedly fallen into dangerous situations.

Yet he always encountered such loyal and righteous women; he cherished this warmth dearly.

"Let go of me. The person they want is me; don't sacrifice yourself for nothing."

Yan Linfei was about to retort.

But Xiang Tian, taking advantage of her distraction, suddenly leaned forward.

He planted a light kiss on her smooth cheek.

With a soft "smack," it carried a hint of haste and determination.

Before Yan Linfei could react, he had already quickly broken free from her hand.

He yelled toward the distance: "Come and chase me!"

A flash of spiritual light shone around Xiang Tian as he instantly activated "Dragon Travels Ten Thousand Miles."

His figure transformed into a blurred afterimage, speeding away into the distance.

"Want to run? Not a chance!" The two men in black reacted extremely quickly and immediately abandoned Yan Linfei.

Their figures surged as they gave chase.

The remaining two continued to tangle with Yan Linfei.

Even with two fewer opponents, Yan Linfei still felt the pressure like a mountain.

The people of the Ouyang Family naturally could not sit idly by.

Ouyang Yunguang could no longer hold back.

Previously, the men in black were numerous, and stepping forward to help would have been like delivering food to the slaughter.

Now that there were only two, he immediately shouted.

"Ouyang Family disciples, follow me to provide support!"

A group of Ouyang clansmen quickly gathered around.

Although most were only at the Martial King Realm.

But with strength in numbers, they joined forces against one Man in black.

They actually managed to form a stalemate, evenly matched.

Yan Linfei finally breathed a slight sigh of relief and was about to pull away to chase after Xiang Tian.

But she was blocked by the other Man in black wielding a long blade.

"Beauty, want to leave? Pass my test first!"

"Clang!"

The long sword and long blade collided again, sparks flying everywhere.

The two fell into another intense struggle.

...

On the other side.

Xiang Tian was speeding ahead, with the two men in black in hot pursuit.

Even though he relied on the "Dragon Travels Ten Thousand Miles" Cultivation Technique, his speed far exceeded that of Cultivators of the same rank.

But the opponents were, after all, Martial Emperor Realm experts; the suppression in cultivation caused the distance to constantly close.

Before long.

The two men in black were one in front and one behind.

Forming a pincer attack, they trapped Xiang Tian firmly in the middle.

"Kid, why aren't you running anymore?" One of the men in black raised an eyebrow and sneered.

"What you want is just the Dragon on me, right?" Xiang Tian stopped his steps and spoke calmly to probe them.

"If I hand the Dragon over to you, will you spare my life?"

The other Man in black rolled his eyes, thinking to himself.

As long as the Dragon was in hand, wasn't this kid's life up to them?

He immediately replied: "That goes without saying! As long as you obediently hand over the Dragon, we will spare you."

Xiang Tian had been in the Jianghu for many years; his ability to observe people was already masterful.

He saw through the opponent's trick at a glance.

He sneered inwardly, deciding to play along with their scheme.

"Fine, I won't run anymore. I will summon the Dragon right now and break the contract with me."

As the words fell, Xiang Tian moved his mind.

He summoned Xiao Hei from the System space.

Little Frog also hopped out, crouching at Xiang Tian's feet.

It curiously sized up the two men in black.

"Hiss—is this little black thing the legendary Dragon?" The two men in black trembled, gasping in cold air.

On this Lingyun Continent, the Dragon was a legendary Divine Beast.

Being able to see it with their own eyes was enough for them to brag about for a lifetime.

"Since you want to see the Dragon so much, I'll let you take a good look." Xiang Tian gave Xiao Hei a look.

Xiao Hei understood and slowly walked toward the two men in black.

Little Frog had jumped onto Xiang Tian's shoulder at some point.

The two men in black were shaking with excitement as Xiao Hei approached.

They actually cautiously reached out and pinched Xiao Hei's face lightly.

Xiao Hei frowned slightly, forcibly suppressing the anger in his heart.

With his current strength, he could still manage to deal with one Martial Emperor Realm expert.

But facing two, he was a bit overwhelmed.

For now, he could only act according to Xiang Tian's plan and let the two look at him as they pleased.

A moment later.

Xiang Tian quietly circled behind the two men in black and asked abruptly.

"Does this Dragon suit your tastes?"

As the words fell, the Demon Blood Blade suddenly unsheathed, turning into a stream of blood-colored light.

It pierced directly at the nearest Man in black!

"Not good!" That Man in black's expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly dodged sideways.

"Sshhh—"

Even with a quick reaction, his arm was still cut by the Demon Blood Blade.

"You are courting death!" The Man in black was furious and raised his blade to slash at Xiang Tian.

Xiang Tian had long anticipated his reaction and tapped his toes.

He quickly pulled away with Xiao Hei and the Little Frog on his shoulder.

But the next second, a bizarre scene occurred.

That Man in black who had his arm cut.

Suddenly convulsed all over and fell stiffly to the ground.

Foaming at the mouth.

"Mission accomplished!" Xiang Tian clapped his hands, looking proud.

The potent poison on the Demon Blood Blade was not something an ordinary Cultivator could resist.

"Xiao Hei, is it okay if I leave the remaining one to you?"

"No problem." Xiao Hei's voice carried a hint of coldness, and the Dragon's might was quietly released from his body.

Xiang Tian took out a chair and sat down, leisurely becoming a spectator.

"You... what did you do to him?" The remaining Man in black frowned, a wave of inexplicable fear surging from the bottom of his heart.

His gaze swept over his convulsing companion on the ground and finally locked firmly onto Xiang Tian.

"Don't stare at me; your opponent is him." Xiang Tian said calmly, pointing at Xiao Hei.

"Hmph! He is indeed a Dragon, but with just this bit of strength, he wants to..." The Man in black suppressed the fear in his heart.

Before he could finish speaking, he was enveloped by a wave of negative emotions originating from the depths of his Soul.

He instantly froze in place, his whole body going limp.

He couldn't even hold the blade in his hand, and it fell to the ground with a "clang."

In just a few breaths of time.

Xiao Hei flashed and arrived in front of that Man in black.

His sharp claws pierced into the opponent's chest, and he ripped the heart out.

He swallowed it raw right in front of Xiang Tian.

"Ugh—hey! That's too disgusting! Didn't I tell you not to eat in front of me?" Xiang Tian's stomach churned, and he quickly moved his mind.

He put Xiao Hei and Little Frog into the System space and hurried toward the main battlefield.

"Kid, where are you going?" Not long after he started walking, a group of men in black suddenly sprang out from the side of the road.

They blocked his path.

"Are you ever going to finish?" Xiang Tian frowned deeply, his expression darkening.

He acutely sensed that the aura of these men in black.

Was completely different from that of the previous Yinshi Sect members; they were clearly not the same faction.

He felt speechless inwardly.

He wasn't Tang Seng; why was he being targeted everywhere he went?

"Did you kill Number Nineteen?" The leader of the men in black stepped forward.

Xiang Tian's heart stirred, and he instantly realized.

"Are you the Imperial Guards of the Dayue Kingdom?"

"Since you know our background, we definitely cannot let you leave!" A hint of ferocity flashed in the leader's eyes.

He then took out a portrait and compared it to Xiang Tian.

He nodded with satisfaction, "That's right, you are the person His Highness the Crown Prince is looking for!"

"Surround him! Do not let him run away!"

At the order, the men in black behind him instantly spread out in a fan shape.

Once again, they surrounded Xiang Tian completely.

Xiang Tian frowned, thinking to himself that this was bad.

Although he had a Talisman left by his ancestor, the power of this Talisman was immense.

Once activated, it would mean going down together.

Unless absolutely necessary, it must not be used.

Just as he was at his wits' end and wanted to call the System to discuss countermeasures.

A sharp piercing sound suddenly came from the air.

"Whoosh—"

A white Flying Sword, wrapped in fierce Sword Qi, flew over at high speed!

"Dodge!"

The leader of the men in black's expression changed greatly, and he shouted sternly.

His figure violently retreated backward.

"Bang!"

Not long after he retreated, the white Flying Sword slammed obliquely into the spot where he had just been standing.

The huge impact blasted out a deep pit, and broken stones flew everywhere.

The two men in black nearby, who couldn't react in time, didn't even have time to let out a scream.

They were shredded by the Sword Qi into scattered, blood-stained strips of cloth, leaving no complete corpse.

Xiang Tian looked up and saw a figure as graceful as an immortal stepping through the air.

Dressed in white as snow, with a cold and aloof temperament.

"Wife!" Xiang Tian's eyes lit up.

The person who arrived was none other than Xiahou Yun!

Xiahou Yun did not pay attention to his call; the moment her figure landed.

She backhanded the Flying Sword stuck in the ground and pulled it out, then flashed to Xiang Tian's side.

The tip of the sword pointed directly at the crowd of men in black.

"If you want to kill him, ask the sword in my hand first if it agrees!"

She held the sword in one hand and precisely grasped Xiang Tian's hand with the other.

Her palm was warm, carrying a power that brought peace of mind.

A smile instantly bloomed on Xiang Tian's face.

Xiahou Yun appeared cold, but she was actually cold on the outside and warm on the inside.

This warm, jade-like hand actually gave him a great sense of security.

He couldn't help but sigh: Having a powerful wife really saves a lot of detours!

"Are you... Xiahou Yun, one of the three beauties of the Heavenly Sword Sect?" The leader of the men in black saw the person's appearance clearly.

His expression changed drastically again, and he exclaimed in shock.

"Hiss—" The surrounding men in black also gasped in cold air one after another.

It was rumored that Xiahou Yun was a rare Immaculate Sword Body.

Since entering the Heavenly Sword Sect, her cultivation had advanced by leaps and bounds.

Within just one month, she had advanced from the Martial King Realm to the Martial Emperor Realm, which could be called Heaven-Defying!

"Wife, not bad; your fame has reached the Dayue Kingdom!" Xiang Tian leaned close to Xiahou Yun and smiled sheepishly.

"Hmph!" Xiahou Yun snorted lightly at him.

Then she turned her head and shouted at the men in black.

"Since you know my identity, why don't you get lost quickly?"

"Get lost? Do you think this is the territory of the Heavenly Sword Sect, where you can run wild?" The leader of the men in black pretended to be calm, but his heart was weighing the situation rapidly.

He knew better than anyone how much a Dragon could enhance a faction, and he absolutely could not give up now.

"I don't believe that with so many of us, we can't deal with just one of you!"

"Then... let us fight!" A cold light flashed in Xiahou Yun's eyes, and the Sword Intent around her body suddenly surged.

Fierce Sword Qi swept outward.
