Other than doubt, what was left was shock, incomparable shock.
To the three Rebirth State hangers-on, fighting and killing were their daily routines. It was also because of this that they understood the relationship between killing and being killed.
So …
They had never underestimated their opponents.
Even though they knew that their opponents were weaker than them in terms of strength and realm, they still wouldn't go easy on them, nor would they be careless.
Because of this, they were even more shocked by the strange scene in front of them.
After all, they knew how powerful the guest with the Death Flame was. Even though he was weaker than them in terms of cultivation level, he was not much weaker than them in terms of tactics and strength.
But now, the guest with the Death Flame was dead.
He died in front of them without any warning. Moreover, he was killed by the three of them when they could not stop.
How could they not be extremely cautious?
Normally, their best choice would be to stop, or to test their opponent's strength. After all, there was only a difference between killing and being killed.
But Crown Prince Lin Tianrong's voice was ringing in their ears, and it was getting more and more urgent.
"What are you three waiting for? Are you going to die with that trash? Kill him, I want him dead now! "Crown Prince Lin Tianrong's anger was rising.
How humiliating was it for the four guests to be killed by someone else even when they were working together? If not for the fact that he was too weak, he would have already attacked.
The three Rebirth State guests looked at each other and quickly understood each other's thoughts.
They did not pity the guest with the Death Flame who was lying on the ground.
Because, from the moment they stepped into the Eastern Palace, they were destined to become a knife, a knife that the Crown Prince could use as he pleased.
But now …
They were also a knife.
However, it was a blade borrowed by someone else.
Blame? Hatred?
They didn't have it, and it was impossible for them to have it. Because, like the guest with the Death Flame, they had a history that no one knew about. If it wasn't for that, how could they be willing to become a blade when they had already entered the Reincarnation State?
"Kill!" One of the guests spoke.
There were no unnecessary words or exchanges. One word represented the path that they were destined to take, a path that had no chance of retreating.
Not to mention that they still had the advantage of three people.
Even if they did not have any advantage, even if they were left with only one person, it was impossible for them to stop. Because, the outcome would be the same whether they stopped or not. Either the black-robed man died, or they died!
The three Rebirth State mercenaries moved again.
However, this time, they did not attack from four different directions, because they did not understand how the black-robed man killed them with a borrowed knife.
I don't understand …
It represented the unknown.
Since it was unknown, it was enough for him to learn a lesson.
The three of them stepped towards the black-clothed man from the same direction. Their bodies lit up. One was red, and the other two were green. The red represented flames.
Fire was not a special Dao. However, it was an extremely powerful Dao. Furthermore, when a person managed to break through to the Rebirth State Middle Stage by relying on the Dao of Fire, one could imagine how much control and comprehension the other party had over fire.
As for Qing, it was only natural.
Nature contains all things. There are flowers, grass, vines, tendrils …
Most importantly, nature was born from soil. Thus, when the two rays of green light lit up, there were already streaks of green threads that seemed to have substance rising from the ground.
The green threads swayed wildly and entangled around the black-clothed man's feet.
It was extremely fast.
The black-clothed man stood quietly on the spot, as if he could not react at all. In just a moment, his feet were completely entangled by the green threads.
At the same time, a ball of red flames arrived. Like a ferocious beast baring its fangs, it bit towards the black-clothed man's throat.
From the moment the three Rebirth State mercenaries attacked to the moment the black-clothed man was trapped, it happened in the blink of an eye. However, the result was obvious.
The red flames bit into the black-clothed man's throat without any resistance. The fangs pierced through the black-clothed man's skin, emitting a sizzling sound.
The surrounding guards and maids finally heaved a sigh of relief.
"Is he dead?!"
"When the three Rebirth State guests attacked together, the result was already decided. Even if he relied on luck to kill 'You Ming' with the help of the three Rebirth State guests, he would not be able to do so."
"Yes, it's impossible for a single person to stop them."
The guards discussed in hushed voices as they carefully observed Crown Prince Lin Tianrong's expression. After all, if the black-clothed man could be taken down, the hot-tempered Crown Prince would calm down a little.
And the 'You Ming' they mentioned was naturally the guest with the Death Flame.
An alias.
As for his real name, it was impossible for anyone to know.
Crown Prince Lin Tianrong's gaze was fixed on the three guests and the black-clothed man. He watched as the flames pierced into the black-clothed man's throat, but the rage in his heart did not dissipate.
Setting the Crown Prince's residence on fire, burning down the study.
How could such rage be quenched by the word 'death'? Crown Prince Lin Tianrong was filled with hatred. He did not want the black-clothed man to die so easily.
If possible, he would rather slowly slice the black-clothed man into pieces.
But now …
He could not care less.
Die!
He could still die!
Crown Prince Lin Tianrong had decided to expose the black-clothed man's corpse to the sun for seven days and seven nights. He wanted everyone to know that this was the authority of the royal family.
There was only one outcome for those who dared to challenge the authority of the royal family. Death.
A sizzling sound came from the black-clothed man's body. This was a bloody scene. But strangely, it did not seem to be bloody at all.
Because …
There seemed to be no blood?!
When everyone saw the flames pierce into the black-clothed man's throat and heard the sizzling sound, they knew that the black-clothed man in front of them could not be an afterimage. Since it was not an afterimage, and he did not dodge, then how could he not die under such a blow?
This was their first thought.
But not long after they had this thought, they realized something was wrong. Because, there was no trace of blood on the black-clothed man's throat.
The crimson fangs pierced deep into his throat. It was clear, clear, and definitely not a mistake. Then, why was there only a sound, but no blood?
A strange scene.
Everyone had the same question in their hearts. Even the Crown Prince, Lin Tianrong, was stunned for a moment. However, no one answered or explained.
And speaking of the most doubtful one …
Of course, it was the strongest of the three guests, the flaming guest who was at the intermediate Rebirth State.
"How is this possible?!" The flaming guest stared at the black-clothed man in front of him. He could not believe what he was seeing.
After all, he could confirm that his Blazing Fangs had indeed pierced through. He could clearly feel that sensation, and there was no way he could be wrong.
But why …
How could he be fine?!
The flaming guest couldn't understand.
The other two guests couldn't understand either. This strangeness had exceeded their common sense. Even though they saw it with their own eyes, they still could not believe it.
"I want to see if you are a human or a ghost!" One of the guests could not hold it in any longer. He flipped his palm, and the green thread that was binding the black-clothed man turned into sharp vines that pierced into the black-clothed man's thigh.
Then …
There was no then.
Because, the vines had indeed pierced into the black-clothed man's body. But, there was still no blood, not even a drop.
"What is going on?" The other guest who was still restraining the man in black spoke up. He couldn't understand the logic behind such a strange situation.
At this moment, the black-clothed man twisted his body, tilted his head, and looked down at the green thread and vines that were binding his thigh.
"That's it?" The black-clothed man's voice was deep, but his tone was relaxed. Furthermore, there was a tinge of disappointment.
This caused countless guards and maids to become terrified.
Because, at this point, they were sure that the black-clothed man was not dead. Not only was he not dead, but he seemed to be living very well.
"What's going on?"
"Why is he fine even though he was hit?"
"What Dao is this? Why have I never heard of such a Dao? "
The guards and servants could not understand. But they knew that the black-clothed man was still alive, which meant that this was not the end.
Instinctively, they turned to look at Crown Prince Lin Tianrong.
With just a single glance, their hearts trembled, because right now, the crown prince had clearly reached the peak of his rage. Strands of unstable aura lingered around his body.
His face was so malevolent, so dark that it looked like it could drip water.
"Kill him, kill him! Shoot, shoot! " Crown Prince Lin Tianrong could no longer care about the three guests. He only had one thought in his mind.
Kill the black-clothed man.
Kill the black-clothed man at all costs.
The hundreds of archers were stunned when they heard Crown Prince Lin Tianrong's words. They naturally saw the three guests standing very close to the black-clothed man.
However, they quickly came to their senses.
"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!"
A series of arrows pierced through the air. A dazzling radiance lit up at the same time. Every arrow had a flowing radiance. If one looked closely, they could even see that the arrows were engraved with cloud patterns.
The arrows rained down on the black-clothed man and the three guests. At such a close distance, they did not need to shoot from afar, but directly.
This also meant that the power of the arrows could be maximized.
The three guests naturally heard Crown Prince Lin Tianrong's words. Seeing the arrows raining down on them and the black-clothed man, they were somewhat shocked.
But none of them said a word.
Because they knew that when Crown Prince Lin Tianrong gave this order, it meant that he had lost his patience with them.
The three mercenaries gritted their teeth at the same time. The radiance on their bodies instantly turned into a layer of barrier, blocking the arrows behind them.
And that was not the end.
When the barrier appeared, they charged towards the black-clothed man. Because they knew that the only way to stop the arrows was to kill the black-clothed man.
Even though they could not understand why the black-clothed man was still alive, they did not have much time to think.
"Kill!"
"Die!"
"Die!"
The three guests shouted at the same time. In an instant, they appeared in front of the black-clothed man. Their fists were wrapped in red and two green, and they punched towards the black-clothed man's heart.
The black-clothed man did not move.
Very close!
However, the three mercenaries did not let their guard down at all. Because before their fists landed on the masked man's body, something could happen at any time.
The three guests clenched their fists tightly. They did not hold back at all.
Finally, when their fists reached the black-clothed man's heart, the black-clothed man moved. He took a step back and retreated.
Along with the black-robed man's movements, the crimson fangs and the vine spikes that were entangling the black-robed man were quickly pulled out from his body.
"This …"
The three guests' expressions changed at the same time.
Although they had witnessed this scene when the guest with the Death Flame and the man in black were fighting, when it happened to them again, they couldn't help but feel a chill run down their spines.
That feeling was still enough to shock them.
"Boom!"
The three fists directly smashed into the scarlet fangs and the green threads and vines, instantly breaking apart and producing a powerful wave of air.
However, the three guests had no intention of stopping.
They continued forward!
They chased after the black-clothed man.
But at this moment, a strange scene happened again. When the three hangers-on broke through the scarlet fangs and green threads and vines, countless green threads rose from the ground.
Compared to the green vines, these vines were much thicker. Each of them was as thick as a finger. In an instant, they entangled the three guests.
At the same time, a red flame similar to a ferocious beast rose. But there were three of them. Three red flames with their fangs bared.
"You …"
The three guests were stunned as well. After all, the scene in front of them was too strange.
It was not strange to have the Dao of Flame.
But to be able to cultivate the Dao of Flame to a red color and transform it into the same ferocious beast's fangs, and three of them at that, was undoubtedly ridiculous.
They wanted to ask, how did this happen?
But they could not open their mouths. Because the flaming fangs were already in front of them, and they were about to bite their throats.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
