"Attack! I'll attack King Carefree and distract them. You help me save Sakura! "
Sword Eighteenth said, and then he shot forward.
All of a sudden, the bridal procession came to a stop.
Everyone watched as a figure lunged toward King Carefree.
This person's speed was extremely fast, and his impact was extremely powerful.
In the blink of an eye, he was right in front of King Carefree.
"Do you need me to help, Uncle King?"
Dugu Shengjian said, looking at Sword Eighteenth with disinterest.
"There's no need for that. Today is my wedding day. I can't believe someone would try to assassinate me!"
King Carefree leaped off his seven-colored jade horse and flew toward Sword Eighteenth.
Not only was he not afraid of an assassination attempt, he even took the initiative.
Bam!
Two swords slammed into each other in midair.
Sword light shot out in all directions, and a series of booms rang out.
While everyone was focused on the fight, Falling Moon finally made her move.
In the blink of an eye, she was inside the bridal sedan chair.
Sword Eighteenth's face lit up with delight.
If he could save Jian Sakura, he could think of a way to escape.
All he had to do was hold off the pursuers.
"Are you happy? Too bad you're going to be disappointed. "
King Carefree looked at Sword Eighteenth with a smile.
Before Sword Eighteenth could understand what he meant, he saw Falling Moon flying backward, blood spraying out of her mouth.
Of all the people who could injure her, at the very least, were Sword Sages.
After all, she was a third division Lifeseizer.
"Sword Eighteenth, run! We've been tricked! It was a trap!"
Falling Moon shouted as she retreated.
"That's not Jian Sakura in the sedan chair!"
Even as she spoke, she disappeared into the crowd.
By this point, the sedan chair had already been destroyed by the fight between the two.
Now, the occupants were revealed.
"Crown Princess!"
Shockingly, the Crown Princess was sitting in the sedan chair.
"Sword Eighteenth, I knew someone would come to save Jian Sakura, but I never would have guessed it would be you two. Tell me, what's going on here? How did you escape from the Bloodthirsty Sword Barrow?"
Dugu Shengjian laughed heartily, but then his expression turned unsightly.
He was laughing because his plan had worked.
His expression was ugly because he had seen two people he shouldn't have seen.
Sword Eighteen didn't flee.
Since his surprise attack had failed, he could only stall for time.
He landed on the ground and looked at Dugu Shengjian. "Do you want to know? It was actually very simple.
Someone destroyed the Bloodthirsty Sword Mound and we escaped. "
"Bullshit! No one in this world can destroy the Bloodthirsty Sword Tomb, and no one can escape from Sword God City! "
Dugu Shengjian shouted.
"You've seen the truth, yet you still refuse to believe it? In this world, perhaps most people can't do such a thing, but there is one person who can. "
Sword 18 sneered.
"Who?"
"You know him."
"Impossible! Could it be him?! "
Dugu Shengjian immediately thought of Ling Xiao.
Of all the people he had met, only Ling Xiao was an opponent that he could not let go of.
"It seems you guessed right," Sword 18 sneered. "That's right. It's him, the emperor of the Kingdom of the Eight Immortals, the future destroyer of the Sword Dynasty. Ling Xiao!
What's interesting is that you fought him at the entrance of the Bloodthirsty Sword Mound, and yet you didn't recognize him? "
Sword Eighteen sneered.
"So that Sword Emperor Goldenphoenix was actually Ling Xiao in disguise. How hateful! If I'd known, I would never have let him into the Bloodthirsty Sword Mound alive. "
Ever since his breakthrough, Dugu Shengjian had always wanted to get revenge on Ling Xiao.
And yet, Ling Xiao had walked right in front of him, and he hadn't recognized him. What a failure.
"Why are there only you, Falling Moon, and Ling Xiao here?"
Dugu Shengjian asked.
"Speaking of which, why don't you worry about Sword God City and your imperial father?
Ling Xiao and the ten thousand Lifeseizers who were released from the Bloodthirsty Sword Mound are causing havoc in Sword God City. "
Sword Eighteen chuckled.
In order to buy time, it didn't matter what Dugu Shengjian asked, Sword Eighteen answered truthfully.
He guessed that if Ling Xiao and Jian Fulong left Sword God City, they would definitely rush over here.
The more time he could buy, the more hope he had.
"Them?" Dugu Shengjian said coldly. "I bet they're all dead by now.
Dugu Shengjian sneered, "You don't understand how terrifying my father is."
"Oh really? I have a feeling he'll show up soon. Didn't you say you wanted to kill him? Don't lose to him again. If you do, you won't even have a chance to escape.
The only thing that awaits you is death. "
Sword Eighteen continued.
"So, you're waiting for Ling Xiao. Fine. I won't kill you. I'll capture you alive and beat you half to death. Then I'll wait for Ling Xiao to show up."
Dugu Shengjian had never planned to fight Sword Eighteen, considering how boring it was.
But right now, he wanted to vent his frustrations.
"Sorry, Uncle Wang," Sword Eighteen said. "I'll borrow your opponent for a moment."
With that, he leaped into the air.
Like a god descending to the mortal world, the onlookers burst into cheers.
Both men and women were screaming.
Men worshipped his strength, his talent, his power, and his status.
Women worshipped everything about him.
"Falling Moon, this is between me and Dugu Shengjian. Don't interfere. Leave quickly."
Sword Eighteen said loudly. He took out his longsword and pointed it at Dugu Shengjian.
No matter how powerful his opponent was, he couldn't avoid this battle for his daughter.
Among the crowd, Falling Moon had retracted all of her aura.
But she didn't run away. Instead, she was searching for Jian Luoying.
The Crown Princess was sitting in the sedan, but Jian Luoying must be in the group.
Otherwise, there was no point in sending the bride away.
She didn't leave after hearing Sword Eighteen's words.
No matter what, she had to rescue Jian Luoying. She couldn't let Sword Eighteen die in vain.
She knew very well that Sword Eighteen was no match for Dugu Shengjian, so she had to be faster.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Dugu Shengjian and Sword Eighteen.
That gave Falling Moon the best opportunity.
Sword Eighteen was much older than Dugu Shengjian.
Although his cultivation wasn't as high as Dugu Shengjian's, he didn't show the slightest sign of fear.
As a veteran of the Demonic Dragon Sword Court, he naturally had his own pride.
The moment he held his longsword, he was like an unsheathed sword. His aura was sharp to the extreme.
"Who's that? I've never seen him before. "
Sword Eighteen hadn't left his residence for over a hundred years, so very few people knew him.
"I don't know, but he looks very strong. Will His Highness be alright?"
"Nonsense. Who do you think His Highness is? How could he lose to a nobody?"
