119: Chapter 119 Encountering a Powerful Enemy
"Who on earth are you?"
Yan Linfei spun her body rapidly, barely dodging the Man in black's fierce palm wind.
Her sleeves were swept by the force, snapping loudly.
From beneath the mask of the lead Man in black came a sinister laugh, and his attacks became increasingly ruthless.
"As long as you two chicks obediently submit, you'll naturally find out."
"Bang!"
A heavy palm force, carrying a strong wind, struck towards the two women.
Yan Linfei and Ouyang Miaomiao exchanged a glance and simultaneously channeled their Internal Energy.
They met the strike with their palms, taking the blow head-on.
"Not bad!" The eyes of the lead Man in black flared with intensity.
Such resilient women were more to his taste.
He turned his head and ordered his subordinates behind him in a deep voice.
"Take it easy, all of you. Do not hurt these two beauties."
"Yes!" the group of Men in black responded in unison.
Although their Moves did not lose their sharpness, they deliberately held back.
"What should we do?" Ouyang Miaomiao clenched her fists.
Her gaze swept over the eight Men in black surrounding them, and she eventually suppressed her impulse.
"There are too many of them. We will definitely lose if we keep dragging this out."
Yan Linfei's delicate brows furrowed tightly as she quickly thought of a countermeasure.
After a moment, she said in a low voice, "The sounds of fighting here should have attracted the Ninth Princess's attention. Right now, the only way to survive is to make an even bigger commotion."
This was the only way to break the deadlock for now.
Ouyang Miaomiao nodded heavily, and the two women quickly stood back-to-back.
They began to fight, parrying the incoming Moves of the Men in black.
It had only been half an incense stick's worth of time.
Ouyang Miaomiao noticed a slight trembling coming from her back.
She asked anxiously.
"Lin Fei, can you still hold on?"
"I won't die." Yan Linfei replied through gritted teeth, feigning composure in her tone.
Yet deep down, a hint of regret welled up.
She hadn't even had the chance to marry Xiang Tian yet; if she were to fall here…
Ouyang Miaomiao glanced at the camp not far away.
"With such a big commotion, the Ninth Princess should be able to notice it, right?"
Yan Linfei's brows furrowed even tighter.
The camp was not far from here; logically, someone should have come to support them by now.
Yet at this moment, apart from the sounds of fighting, there was no other movement.
Her heart sank. "I'm afraid… something has happened to the Ninth Princess as well."
As soon as she finished speaking, the Men in black's attacks suddenly intensified.
Every Move was lethal yet avoided vital points, clearly intending to drain the two women's Internal Energy.
Yan Linfei and Ouyang Miaomiao gradually felt overwhelmed, and their breathing became increasingly chaotic.
"Bang!"
One Man in black took advantage of a gap when Ouyang Miaomiao was catching her breath.
He kicked her heavily in the lower abdomen, sending her flying.
"Miaomiao!" Yan Linfei exclaimed, wanting to step forward.
But she was tightly entangled by two Men in black and could not Move.
"Who told you to hurt my beauty?" the lead Man in black shouted angrily.
The Man in black who had attacked immediately wilted.
He hurriedly lowered his head and defended himself, "I… I didn't mean to…"
"Hmph! Useless!" the lead Man in black snorted coldly and ordered sternly.
"Surround her quickly! Don't give her a chance to escape!"
Several Men in black immediately closed in step by step.
Just then, two figures swept in like a gust of wind.
The man's figure flickered, and he steadily caught Ouyang Miaomiao in his arms.
Ouyang Miaomiao, in her daze, had not yet noticed.
Yan Linfei, however, recognized the person immediately and cried out, "Xiang Tian?"
The person who arrived was none other than Xiang Tian and Xiahou Yun.
Hearing this, Ouyang Miaomiao raised her eyes and saw who it was.
She immediately grasped his lapels tightly.
"Xiang Tian, it's good that you're okay…"
Xiang Tian patted her back to comfort her and quickly took out a Medicinal Pill for healing, stuffing it into her mouth.
"Be good, focus on healing your injuries first."
"Go be lovey-dovey somewhere else." Xiahou Yun reached out and pushed them to a safe area aside.
The long sword in her hand suddenly unsheathed, its cold light biting.
She faced the Men in black who were surrounding them.
Seeing Xiahou Yun's stunning beauty, the lead Man in black's eyes flashed with greed.
"Tsk tsk, I didn't expect such a beauty to be hiding here. What a pleasant surprise."
"You're courting death!" Xiahou Yun's eyes turned cold as her long sword spun, creating a fierce sword blossom.
The Sword Qi swept across towards the Men in black.
"Not good!" The lead Man in black's expression changed drastically, and he retreated rapidly.
He barely dodged the Sword Qi, a layer of cold sweat breaking out on his back.
This woman's strength far exceeded his expectations!
"Ah!"
Although he luckily dodged it, a Man in black beside him could not avoid it in time.
He was struck on the shoulder by the Sword Qi, screaming as he collapsed to the ground.
"As expected of my wife, taking down one with a casual strike." Xiang Tian, holding Ouyang Miaomiao, couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
Ouyang Miaomiao, leaning in his arms, could clearly feel the powerful aura emitted by Xiahou Yun.
She said softly, "Xiahou Yun's strength has become even stronger than before."
"Hmm, are you afraid?" Xiang Tian looked down at her.
Ouyang Miaomiao pursed her lips, her gaze fixed tightly on the figure fighting in the arena.
She had no confidence in her heart and could only shake her head blankly.
At this moment, Yan Linfei also ran over quickly and reached out to hold Xiang Tian's arm.
Resting her head gently on his shoulder, she said in a reproachful tone.
"It's all your fault. If we hadn't come out to look for you, we wouldn't have been surrounded by these people."
Xiahou Yun caught a glimpse of this scene from the corner of her eye, and anger flared up in her heart.
With a low shout, her long sword's attacks became even more fierce.
The Sword Qi surged towards the Men in black like a tide.
"Hmph! Want to launch a sneak attack? Not that easy!"
The lead Man in black snorted coldly and quickly took out a bronze disc.
His fingers quickly formed a seal, and a faint Spiritual Qi glow appeared on the disc, which he held in front of him.
"Bang!"
Xiahou Yun's Sword Qi collided with the disc and was actually blocked head-on.
As the Spiritual Qi flickered, the Sword Qi dissipated without a trace.
"Hmm? What kind of treasure is this?" Xiahou Yun's delicate brows furrowed slightly.
A flash of surprise crossed her eyes.
Seeing this, the lead Man in black felt a bit more confident.
He said triumphantly, "Beauty, no matter how strong your strength is, can you defeat my protective treasure disc?"
"You think you're the only one with a treasure?" Xiahou Yun sneered and flipped her palm.
The jade seal appeared in her hand.
She whispered to the jade seal, "The Fish Fairy, is the Fusion complete?"
The Fish Fairy had been imprisoned in the jade seal for a long time.
She had actually shown signs of Fusion with the jade seal.
If not for this, she would have taken out the jade seal to fight the Dayue Kingdom people last time.
"It's done." A woman's voice came from the jade seal.
Immediately, a blue light burst out from the jade seal.
Amidst the flowing light and shadow, a stunning woman wearing a blue gauze dress slowly appeared.
It was none other than The Fish Fairy!
"The Fish Fairy?" A flash of astonishment crossed Xiang Tian's eyes.
He hadn't seen this woman for a long time, and his thoughts couldn't help but drift back to the beginning.
If not for You Lingqing's instigation, he and The Fish Fairy wouldn't have had that entanglement.
The Fish Fairy cast a seductive glance at Xiang Tian.
Seeing this, Yan Linfei's brows knitted even tighter.
"Why has another woman popped up?"
Xiang Tian hurriedly withdrew his gaze and landed it on Xiahou Yun.
He saw Xiahou Yun raise her hand and toss the jade seal into the air.
The jade seal expanded rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, becoming the size of a small hill in an instant.
"Go!" Xiahou Yun gave a low shout.
The expanded jade seal, like Mount Tai pressing down, carried a world-destroying momentum.
It enveloped all the Men in black within it.
"Not good!" The lead Man in black's face turned pale, and he hurriedly held the bronze disc over his head.
He channeled his Spiritual Qi into it with all his might, and the disc's Spiritual Qi glow flared up.
Attempting to resist the suppression of the jade seal.
But even so.
His body was still bent slightly by the pressure, making it difficult to support.
"Big Brother, what should we do? This pressure is too strong!" A Man in black was flustered.
"What are you panicking about!" The lead Man in black scolded sternly, forcing himself to remain calm.
"We are Disciples of the Tyrant Blade Sect; when have we ever feared a strong enemy?"
Although he said so, his expression became increasingly grave.
Even the protective treasure disc could hardly support it.
The power of this jade seal was truly beyond imagination.
"We have no choice but to fight to the death!"
He gritted his teeth and drew upon all the Qi and blood in his body, a red light glowing around him, and shouted sternly at his subordinates.
"Everyone, channel your Qi and blood energy! Let's resist together!"
The Men in black hurriedly followed suit, and streams of Qi and blood energy converged together.
It actually managed to barely stabilize the situation, and the jade seal suspended in the air stopped descending.
"Hmph!" Xiahou Yun snorted coldly upon seeing this.
Just as she was about to add more force, a warm touch came from behind her.
"Wife, don't we still have us here?" Xiang Tian had appeared behind her at some point.
He pressed a palm against her back, and pure Internal Energy continuously surged into her body.
Yan Linfei and Ouyang Miaomiao also stepped forward one after another, placing their palms against Xiahou Yun's back.
The three of them intertwined their Spiritual Qi and channeled it into her body together.
Xiahou Yun felt a massive force surging within her.
With a violent shout, she channeled all her power into the jade seal.
"Suppress!"
The stagnant jade seal slowly descended again, and the pressure became increasingly terrifying.
Cracks began to appear on the Qi and blood light shield around the Men in black.
"Not good!" The lead Man in black's expression sank completely.
They were already consuming a lot of energy by channeling their Qi and blood, and they couldn't support it for long.
"Senior Brother, we can't hold on any longer! What should we do?" Another Man in black shouted in a panic.
A flash of ruthlessness crossed the lead Man in black's eyes.
He gritted his teeth and said.
"We have no choice but to use our last trump card!"
He quickly took out a yellowed Talisman and his fingers quickly formed a seal.
The Talisman instantly ignited with a ghostly blue flame, and a phantom of an old man with a white beard slowly emerged from the Talisman.
"Third Elder, help!" The lead Man in black shouted loudly at the phantom for help.
The Third Elder's phantom opened its eyes and scanned the arena.
It immediately noticed the jade seal pressing down on top of the Men in black, its tone carrying a hint of impatience.
"Hmm? Have you encountered a strong enemy?"
"Exactly! I beg the Third Elder to intervene and save us!" the lead Man in black hurriedly pleaded.
"Just this?" The Third Elder sneered.
With a casual wave of his hand, an invisible force suddenly erupted.
It directly flipped the mountain-like jade seal away.
The jade seal spun in the air.
It shrank rapidly and flew back into Xiahou Yun's hand.
"Pfft!"
Xiahou Yun was backlashed by the jade seal, spitting out a mouthful of blood, her figure staggering and about to fall.
"Xiaoyun!" Xiang Tian hurriedly stepped forward to support her, his heart aching as he looked at her pale face.
"Why are you spitting blood again? Are you seriously hurt?"
Xiahou Yun leaned in his arms, forcing herself to wave her hand.
Her voice was weak but still stubborn.
"It's nothing, just a backlash from the jade seal. I'll be fine after meditating for a while."
