Seeing Lin Xue gripping the demon blade, her expression cold, her entire body emitting a shocking killing intent.
Those 20 guards' hearts were all in their throats. They all drew their swords and sabers, staring at Lin Xue with full vigilance.
They were all Celestial Deity Realm Eighth or Ninth Level strength. Facing Lin Xue, a high-rank Celestial Lord, they felt apprehensive from the bottom of their hearts.
But they had a mission on hand. Even if they knew that they were no match, they absolutely could not shrink back.
Of course.
These guards were not stupid. They had long secretly sent out a message, informing Meng Yu.
What they had to do now was to stall for time as much as possible and wait for Meng Yu to arrive.
The guard captain cupped his fists at Lin Xue again and said in a sincere tone, "Miss Lin, you really misunderstood!
We absolutely have no ill intentions. We're just following orders.
If you have any misunderstanding, please don't be anxious. When the City Lord arrives, we'll explain to you face to face. How about it?
We're just guards of the City Lord Manor, insignificant lackeys. You're a magnanimous person, why make things difficult for us? "
The guard captain's desire to live was very strong. But Lin Xue did not fall for it at all.
"Misunderstanding? You guys closed the manor's gates, activated the defensive divine array, and pointed your swords at this lord. You call this a misunderstanding?
Enough nonsense. This lord will give you guys two choices now.
Either retreat and open the manor's gates.
Or … die under this lord's blade! "
When her voice faded, surging divine power accumulated in Lin Xue's body. The demon blade in her right hand also released a dazzling blood light, seething with killing intent.
The 20 guards were instantly terrified. Each and every one of them had a bitter expression, gripping their swords tightly. The Kenshin soldiers.
The guard captain swallowed a mouthful of saliva. Forcefully suppressing his worry and fear, he braced himself and persuaded, "Miss Lin, you mustn't be rash …"
Unfortunately, Lin Xue's patience was already exhausted.
Without waiting for the guard captain to finish, she waved the demon blade, slashing out several dozen streaks of blood-colored blade light, exploding out like a hurricane.
Swoosh!
In an instant, several dozen streaks of blood-colored blade light erupted in the courtyard like a tornado, engulfing the 20 guards.
Only to hear "swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh" sounds of air tearing sounded one after another. Those 20 guards let out shrill and ear-piercing screams and were immediately minced into pieces.
A rain of blood filled the sky. Severed limbs were scattered around the courtyard, filling the air with a pungent smell of blood.
In the blink of an eye, the twenty guards were smashed into pieces. They were all dead.
In a fit of anger, Xue Lin only used one move to kill them.
In a few houses and corridors not far away, several maids saw this scene and their faces turned pale with fright. They screamed and fled in all directions.
But Xue Lin did not pay attention to them. She walked through the blood rain and walked to the gate of the manor.
She held the Bewitching Blade tightly and raised her hand to slash at the door.
"Boom!"
The thirty-meter-long scarlet saber light struck the door with a loud, muffled sound.
Above the sturdy and heavy bronze gate, dazzling five-colored divine light shone, forming a huge wall of light.
The blood-red saber light failed to strike the bronze gate, but was blocked by the light wall.
The light wall trembled violently dozens of times, flashing with divine light, but it didn't shatter or crack. It was still safe and sound.
Xue Lin stared at the light wall and observed it carefully for a moment. She found that it was a supreme monarch level defensive divine array.
With her strength, it was almost impossible for her to break it with brute force.
So, she moved her gaze and looked at the walls on both sides of the gate.
Although the defense of the gate was strong, she didn't have to go through the gate to leave the Perching Phoenix Yard.
"Swoosh!"
She waved the Bewitching Blade again and slashed out two thirty-meter-long scarlet saber light toward the walls on both sides of the gate.
With two loud bangs, the walls of the courtyard also lit up with five-colored divine light, and a thick light curtain appeared.
"Swoosh!"
The defensive array that covered the entire Perching Phoenix Yard was completely activated.
A ten-thousand-meter-wide five-colored light wall covered the entire manor like a sky curtain.
Seeing this, Xue Lin was already mentally prepared. She was not surprised.
She performed the mystic eye technique and carefully observed the light wall above her head, looking for the nodes and weak points of the defensive array.
Time passed silently.
Soon, fifteen minutes had passed.
She finally found the seemingly thick five-colored light shield above the lotus pond in the third courtyard. In fact, it was an area where the defense was relatively weak.
It would be a waste of time to use spells to break the array.
After all, she was not an array grandmaster like Ji Tianxing.
She decisively chose to attack with all her might. She waved the Bewitching Blade recklessly and attacked that area.
"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!"
She exploded with her strongest divine power and stabbed out streaks and streaks of scarlet saber light toward the five-colored light wall.
On average, she would stab out four streaks of scarlet saber light every second without any decrease in power.
Within a hundred seconds, she had stabbed out 400 times and all of them were focused on one spot on the light wall.
She could only hear the muffled sounds of "Bang, bang, bang".
The light wall shook violently and flashed with five-colored divine light. The vibration of the divine power also became chaotic.
In the end, the light wall was withstanding more and more power. It could no longer dissolve or repair itself.
Along with a crisp cracking sound, numerous cracks appeared on the light screen, and a washbasin-sized gap appeared.
Xue Lin's entire body lit up with divine light. Her body shrunk a hundred times and she turned into a beam of light and went into the hole.
"Swoosh!"
With a flash of divine light, she left the Perching Phoenix Courtyard and appeared in the sky.
Then her body returned to normal size. She held the Bewitching Blade and flew away.
Since there was a problem with Meng Yu, she would not stay, nor would she question Meng Yu.
The wisest thing to do was to leave the Double Dragon City as soon as possible.
However.
She had just flown two thousand miles away from the Fallen Phoenix Mountain.
In the sky to the side, a streak of divine light flashed and teleported toward her at an extremely fast speed.
Xue Lin sensed the presence of divine power approaching. She quickly released her Divine Consciousness to check.
She saw that the five figures wrapped in the divine light were flying in front of her at lightning speed, blocking her path.
After the divine light dissipated, Meng Yu and four black-armored guards appeared.
Those four black-armored guards all had strength at the second and third level Divine Lord Realm. They followed and protected Meng Yu all along, inseparable like shadows.
They fanned out in the sky and blocked Xue Lin's possible escape.
Meng Yu looked at Xue Lin with a smile. His tone was still as gentle as before. He asked in surprise, "Sister Xue 'er, what are you doing?
I let those guards follow you, not only to protect you, but also to serve you.
That's why you didn't have to do everything yourself. If you needed anything, just tell them.
But you didn't appreciate it. You even killed them … Sigh! "
At the end of his speech, Meng Yu's face showed that he was hurt. He even let out a sad sigh.
At that moment, Xue Lin was dazed and speechless.
She even suspected that she had misunderstood.
However, she immediately came back to her senses. She shouted with a cold face, "Meng Yu, don't pretend to be nice to me!
Tell me, why did you try to put me under house arrest? "
