The bloody figure dashed out of the belly of the iron-claw tiger and headed for Xuanyuan Wuji's head as fast as a lightning bolt, which was out of everyone's imagination. Even those knights on Xuanyuan Wuji's side couldn't respond to it.
The bloody figure moved so fast. He was definitely a knight. Additionally, he appeared so abruptly. When the others discovered him, his terrifying spike had long arrived in front of Xuanyuan Wuji.
This was a fatal strike. It had been premeditated for a long time.
The spike in the bloody figure's hand didn't hit Xuanyuan Wuji; because in a split second, a semi-transparent light cover with flowing red light had covered Xuanyuan Wuji like an upside-down bell.
With a black spike, the bloody figure slid over the light cover of Xuanyuan Wuji as fast as a lightning bolt like the sickle of death. The black spike was blocked by the semi-transparent red light cover of Xuanyuan Wuji; instead of breaking the light cover, it slid over the light cover and fell on the throat of the nearest person on Xuanyuan Wuji's side.
When the neck spurted out blood like a fountain, that knight's head flew into the air for a few meters in a split second. At the same time, his blood all over his body started to burn like flames. Closely after that, a roar and a powerful air-breaking sound of battle qi sounded at the same time.
"Protect His Majesty …"
The bloody figure's first strike didn't fall onto Xuanyuan Wuji's body; instead, it chopped off the head of a knight's attendant on Xuanyuan Wuji's side. As a black iron knight, the knight's attendant didn't make any response at all and had been killed by the bloody figure in a split second.
With the exclamation of "Protect His Majesty", two shadow knights and Xuanyuan Wuji flew off the ground at the same time. Jiang Feng roared as he charged at that bloody figure who had an extremely weird body. Only by twisting his body in the air, he had easily dodged away from the others' strikes.
On this occasion, the environment on the ground was more complex and dangerous, which was disadvantageous to knights' battle strength. Additionally, assassins could take advantage of it. By contrast, it was safer to stay in the open space in the air.
When Xuanyuan Wuji and the two shadow knights flew off at the same time, Elder Muyu and Lan Yunxi also flew off at the same time. However, they didn't draw close to Xuanyuan Wuji; instead, they kept a distance from Xuanyuan Wuji. At this moment, if they drew close to Xuanyuan Wuji, they might become the target of the assassins and suffer an unexpected disaster. Additionally, they might be suspected as assassins by the four king kongs on Xuanyuan Wuji's side and be attacked by them. Therefore, as long as they were not stupid, they would not draw close to Xuanyuan Wuji at this moment.
On the ground, the hunting team in Xuanyuan Wuji's mansion had been in chaos. Facing the earth knight who charged at him, the bloody figure instantly split into nine bloody figures and rushed in all directions.
"Jiang Ming, protect Xue Fucius back …" Xuanyuan Wuji ordered an earth knight called Jiang Ming, one of the four King Kongs of the third prince's mansion on the ground while being escorted by two shadow knights in the air.
When the bloody figure charged at him, Xue Fucius seemed to be a bit scared as he immediately caught the arm of the knight called Jiang Ming on his side while quivering...
At this moment, a bloody figure flew towards Xuanyuan Wuji. However, before it arrived at Xuanyuan Wuji's side, it had been broken into pieces by a golden light and fell down like a bloody rain.
Lan Yunxi's complexion was as cold as ice. A small red bow had appeared in her hand. She pulled the bowstring, and a golden light appeared on the red bow. The golden light shot out again, and another blood-colored figure on the ground was blasted into pieces.
Before flying away, Xuanyuan Wuji threw a deep glance at Lan Yunxi.
When the third bloody figure was shattered by Jiang Feng, the other bloody figures had aroused chaos and bloody rain among Xuanyuan Wuji's guards.
In the chaos, the animal controller in the prince's mansion who had discovered the trace of iron-claw tiger was hit by the bloody figure's battle qi when he blocked one of the bloody figures. As a result, he spurted out blood heavily as he crashed towards Xue Fucius and Jiang Ming.
In the sky, Lan Yunxi drew her bow and shot an arrow. In the blink of an eye, the third bloody figure was shattered by the golden arrow. However, at this moment, Lan Yunxi, who was looking down from above, suddenly narrowed her eyes. A scene that she could never have imagined suddenly appeared in front of her eyes. The situation below changed once again …
When the animal controller in the prince's mansion was sent flying towards Xue Fucius and that knight powerhouse in the prince's mansion, a terrifying huge abyss iron battle hammer suddenly appeared in the hand of the animal controller. At the same time, the blood that the animal controller spurted out formed two brilliant, bizarre runes which looked like tadpoles in front of his chest.
Just like the blood-colored figure that had suddenly appeared, the sudden change was also unexpected and impossible to guard against.
The terrifying huge abyss iron battle hammer struck onto the fragile body of Xue Fucius in a split second. Meanwhile, one of the two bizarre red tadpole-like runes in front of Xue Fucius disappeared into the central forehead of that animal controller while the other one darted towards that knight powerhouse on Xue Fucius' side.
Before the battle hammer approached him, Xue Fucius, who was so fragile, had already released a terrifying qi as he pulled that knight called Jiang Ming back rapidly. At the same time, an extremely furious roar reverberated across 60 square miles, "Who the hell are you?"
With a loud sound "boom …", a huge impact wave rose from the ground. As a result, Lan Yunxi and Elder Muyu hurriedly flew away from the high ground.
In a split second, 1,000 m's ground had been swept over by the powerful impact wave, breaking the rocks into pieces. The woods within 1,000 m were blown down one after another like a beach being swept by a flood. All the guards and servants in the prince's mansion who followed Xuanyuan Wuji here were shocked to death in a split second. Although being 100 m away, the earth knight called Jiang Feng was also blown away by the powerful impact wave.
At the same time, a miserable shriek drifted from the ground.
Facing the powerful protective battle qi, Xue Fucius was sent flying away like a meteor. When he flew away, Xue Fucius was holding a broken arm. The miserable shriek was not uttered by Xue Fucius, but by Jiang Ming whose arm had been torn off.
Just as Xue Fucius was sent flying by the heavy hammer and was about to borrow the momentum to fly away with Jiang Ming, Jiang Ming seemed to have taken root in the ground and was fixed in place. On one hand, it was because of the terrifying and inhuman strength of the war hammer, and on the other hand, Jiang Ming couldn't move. The most direct result was that Xue Fucius' arm that was grabbing Jiang Ming was directly torn off by the huge force of the war hammer. Xue Fucius was sent flying, and Jiang Ming let out a painful scream.
The sudden change was out of everyone's expectation, including Lan Yunxi and Elder Muyu.
Watching the terrifying impact wave from the ground, Elder Muyu changed his face greatly as he pulled Lan Yunxi's arm, saying, "Miss, retreat …"
Lan Yunxi also hurriedly retreated. The battle on the ground was no longer something the two of them could intervene in at this time. If such a blow landed on the two of them, the two of them would not be able to resist at all and would be killed in an instant.
When the impact wave spread out, the two shadow knights and Xuanyuan Wuji who had just flown away changed their direction and flew towards the most dangerous place at the risk of their lives.
Watching this weird reversed situation, both Lan Yunxi and Elder Muyu seemed to have figured something out.
However, they didn't have time to express their fury for being fooled; instead, they just left there rapidly.
A huge pit as deep as dozens of meters appeared where Xue Fucius and Jiang Ming stood just now. The animal controller, no, that powerful and weird killer and the earth knight with a twisted face whose arm had been torn off were standing in the air. Xue Fucius, who had been sent flying away just now, was rushing towards the killer at a speed of a few miles per second with an overwhelming qi.
That immortal controller also flashed backward as fast as Xue Fucius. What was more, no matter how hard the one-armed knight struggled, he couldn't avoid being dragged backward by that immortal controller as fast as an invisible shackle. As long as the immortal controller moved, he would also be dragged backward rapidly by that immortal controller.
The earth knight roared as he started to save himself at the critical moment. At the same time, a brilliant longsword appeared in his hand as he slashed towards the terrifying animal controller.
However, it was a pity that the huge gap between their cultivation levels and the hidden terrifying strength of the beast tamer made the knight's attempt to save himself futile. Perhaps the knight didn't know that his act of drawing his sword was so laughable in front of that terrifying beast tamer.
When he was flying backward, the battle hammer which weighed tons struck towards him once again. The sword qi of the long sword was shattered by the battle hammer. When the battle hammer approached his body, a golden light suddenly appeared over his body, forming a new light cover which was similar to that of Xuanyuan Wuji. However, there were some flying runes in the light cover.
When the heavy hammer fell onto the knight's body, the light cover was broken into pieces. At the same time, a bizarre rune crystal plate on the knight's body was broken into pieces. The brilliant longsword was sent flying away. At the same time, the part between the thumb and index finger of his left hand was broken while his five fingers and the bones of his palm were shattered by the terrifying strength of the huge hammer. The knight spurted out blood heavily as his clothes turned into ashes at once. As a result, he became naked. At the same time, the skin on his face was broken, revealing another face which was as same as that of Xuanyuan Wuji; except that it was more domineering between his eyebrows.
"Let go of His Majesty …" Xue Fucius roared. However, if he lost one move, he would lose everything. Although he was slightly injured by the huge hammer, the final result had been doomed. At this moment, Xue Fucius couldn't even launch an attack. Because of the long distance between them, he was advancing while the other was retreating. Additionally, Xuanyuan Wuji was facing him. If he launched an attack, Xuanyuan Wuji would bear his attack first.
"Lock of bloody chakra, who the hell are you?" The real Xuanyuan Wuji roared, "Xuanyuan Golden Body …"
With his roar, Xuanyuan Wuji released a bizarre qi. At the same time, the earth elements in the Elements Realm suddenly gathered towards Xuanyuan Wuji crazily and gradually formed a suit of armor …
The terrifying animal controller remained silent. He responded to Xue Fucius and Xuanyuan Wuji by waving his battle hammer for the second time, which fell onto Xuanyuan Wuji's body coldly and irresistibly.
The Xuanyuan Golden Body collapsed once again in front of the absolute strength, causing a greater harm to Xuanyuan Wuji.
Xuanyuan Wuji retreated as fast as a lightning bolt while numerous wounds opened up all over his body. Numerous bones were broken while blood spurted out from his eyes, ears, mouth and nose. However, Xuanyuan Golden Body saved Xuanyuan Wuji's life.
"What an emperor-level Xuanyuan Deity Sutra. What a pity …" The animal controller who had been silent since the beginning finally opened his mouth after letting out a sigh.
Xuanyuan Wuji was on the verge of collapse. Watching that terrifying animal controller with an unwilling look, he struggled to utter a sentence at the fastest speed, "As long as you let me go, I will give you everything …"
"I only want your life. You don't have to give it to me. I will take it myself!"
Closely after that, the terrifying battle hammer fell onto Xuanyuan Wuji's body for the third time, shattering his thin protective battle qi and wiping out all of his unwilling look.
Time seemed to stop at this moment …
In the distance, Lan Yunxi and Elder Muyu were stunned. Until now, they still couldn't believe that Xuanyuan Wuji, the third prince of Taixia Country could be killed by an iron hammer in front of them.
At the same time, Xue Fucius who was flying towards here became dumbfounded; so did the remaining knights. All of them looked ashen …
"Your Majesty …" Jiang Feng, who had been blown away by the impact wave above the woods, uttered a sad cry as he rushed towards Xuanyuan Wuji.
The hammer-wielding beast tamer glanced at Jiang Feng, then shot towards Jiang Feng at a terrifying speed like a bolt of lightning, slamming into Jiang Feng's body.
Facing the terrifying strength, Jiang Feng, one of the four King Kongs in the third prince's mansion, was split into pieces and killed on the spot.
In the sky in the distance, watching this scene, Elder Muyu quivered all over as he suddenly recalled that day when Jiang Feng hit him in the third prince's mansion and those words that Jiang Feng said.
"You're Zhang Tie …" Xue Fucius suddenly roared, causing Lan Yunxi and Elder Muyu to change their faces once again.
The animal controller with a heavy hammer didn't respond to him anymore. After killing Jiang Feng, the animal controller had already rushed to the front of "Xuanyuan Wuji" and the two shadow knights.
With another strike, Xuanyuan Wuji was turned into ashes. With another strike, Jiang Qianchou, the shadow knight of Jiang Clan of Heavenly Stars Palace, was split into pieces. With a sweep of the handle of the hammer, the employed imperial household was hit off the ground like being struck by a lightning bolt. Closely after that, the animal controller rushed towards Xue Fucius. The two people then started a scuffle. In less than 1 minute, the sky within 60 square miles had turned red as if it was dyed with blood …
After the crimson streak, there was only a single meteor that trembled in the sky before flying towards the south …
It was quiet on Dragon-Tiger Mountain. At this moment, besides the two people who could fly in the sky, there was only a shadow knight lying on the ground who was severely wounded.
Watching all this with pale faces, Lan Yunxi and Elder Muyu felt like having a dream.
…
In the imperial palace of Xuanyuan Hill …
Hurried footsteps appeared outside Yanji Palace in the imperial palace, which sounded a bit flurried. As a result, Xuanyuan Changying, who was thinking about what happened in Shazhou Province in Yanji Palace, frowned at once. However, before he ordered a eunuch to scold them, the footsteps had already pushed open two eunuchs outside the door. A royal uncle who was in charge of the Imperial Clansmen's Mansion appeared in front of Xuanyuan Changying with a pale face and beads of sweat all over his forehead.
"Fourth uncle, why are you flurried?" Xuanyuan Changying put down the memorial in his hand as he relaxed his face and asked calmly.
"The life lamp of the third prince … the third prince … the third prince Xuanyuan Wuji in Heaven's Favor Pavilion … has just … just died out …"
Xuanyuan Wuji sprung up at once …
"Your Majesty, there's an emergency from the administrative department of Jiangzhou Province …" Another servant raised a sealed cylinder of wax over his head as he rushed into Yanji Palace.
…
Above Yinhai, Zhang Tie finally opened his eyes as he watched the airboats of the three major sects in the distance with a faint smile …
