She was dressed in white, her skin whiter than snow, her looks peerless, and her sword light was like a rainbow!
When they saw that Zhao Min was about to be cut in half, Zhang Wuji and Xuanming Elders stopped fighting at the same time.
"Miss Zhou, you can't!"
"Protect Princess Zhao Min!"
The three elites protected her at the same time, and Zhou Zhiruo's sword strike, which she had been very confident in, was instantly deflected by Zhang Wuji, who had charged at her.
Prince Ruyang walked out of the mansion in an awe-inspiring manner. Behind him were A 'da and A' er, who had long breaths and temples bulging.
"Zhang Wuji, Zhou Zhiruo, you're courting death!!"
"Xuanming Elders! Quickly take down Ming Cult's Cult Master Zhang Wuji! "
"A 'da, A' er … Capture Zhou Zhiruo, the remnant of Emei Sect, alive for me. We can use this chance to capture these two people and ask His Majesty for a reward!" It was only then that Prince Ruyang saw the pitiful Eighth Prince being held by his precious daughter, who was holding a sword to his neck. Prince Ruyang's gaze tensed up. "Go and bring Princess Minmin back for me. Protect the Eighth Prince as he enters the mansion."
Duke Ruyang gave the order.
Martial artists from all over the prince's mansion swarmed in like a tidal wave.
Just a moment ago, they received different system notifications, which were respectively:
"Protect Zhou Zhiruo and assassinate Zhao Min and the Eighth Prince."
"Follow Zhang Wuji and protect Zhao Min as she leaves the capital."
"Help Prince Ruyang. While protecting the Eighth Prince, take down Zhou Zhiruo and Zhang Wuji and capture Princess Zhao Min alive …"
After the three missions were issued, the situation suddenly became extremely complicated.
There were quite a number of Ming Cult and Wudang Sect disciples who had their eyes on Zhang Wuji's Nine Yang Divine Skill. There were also quite a number of players who had their eyes on Zhou Zhiruo's declining strength and thought that it would be easier to assassinate Zhao Min and the Eighth Prince, who were in Moksha Realm. But in Beijing, most of the people from Six Doors, Embroidered Uniform Guards, and Eastern and Western Depots could only accept the quest to protect the Eighth Prince and assist Prince Ruyang.
For a moment, the scene was extremely chaotic!
Before the three parties could even get close to Ruyang Mansion, they had already been clearly marked out by the system. A white, blue, and red armband appeared on each of their arms. A large group of players had already taken the lead and engaged in a chaotic battle.
However …
These three quests involved plenty of Inaction Realm martial artists, and none of them were quests that players could easily complete!
In the blink of an eye.
Outside the prince's mansion, sabers and swords flashed, and blood flowed like a river.
However, as of now, no one had successfully broken through to the center of the storyline and threatened Zhou Zhiruo and Zhang Wuji. As for Zhao Min, she had the Eighth Prince as her shield, and she was also protected by a group of elites from Ruyang Mansion. Normal players would not be able to get close to her for the time being. Even though the mansion wanted to capture Zhao Min, she was a princess, and she was also the target of protection.
"F * ck!"
"What the hell is this mission?!"
"I went to get Zhao Min, but the people from the Ruyang Mansion attacked me …"
The strange situation made many players quickly realize the complexity of this quest after a short encounter, and they retreated one after another.
At that moment, a group of Embroidered Uniform Guards walked over from the other side of the street in an orderly fashion. They pushed and parted the crowd with an aggressive air. "The Embroidered Uniform Guards are here on business! Unrelated people, get lost! "
Which one of the people present was not a proud and arrogant expert?
But when he saw the leader of the Embroidered Uniform Guards and the nearly one hundred Embroidered Uniform Guards behind him, he instantly swallowed the anger that was at the tip of his tongue.
It was Langye, one of the Three Young Masters of Beijing!
Langye had come just in time. He used his status as the vice commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guards to join the fray. Not only did he join Ruyang Mansion in a bold and confident manner, no one dared to touch him in the city. When he surrounded them, he was even more dangerous than an Inaction Realm martial artist. Many of the old foxes in Beijing canceled their quest and shrank back into the crowd.
Some of the slower ones were surrounded by the Embroidered Uniform Guards under Langye's command. They were shackled, and more than thirty of them were captured on the spot.
If they were shackled by the Embroidered Uniform Guards, they would have to stay in prison for at least forty-eight hours!
The commotion at the entrance of Ruyang Mansion was instantly brought under control by Langye and his people. The remaining people were all officials of the imperial court, and they were all players who had accepted Ruyang Mansion's quest.
The streets near the mansion were instantly cleared out!
Zhang Wuji and Zhou Zhiruo, who were held back by Xuanming Elders, A 'da, and A' er and could not break free, were instantly surrounded. Even Zhao Min did not expect that this would happen. She held the Eighth Prince hostage and leaned against the wall.
However …
Even though the situation was dangerous, Zhou Zhiruo did not use her full strength while she held Heavenly Sword. Wherever the sword light went, A 'da and A' er did not dare to face it head on, and the players hid far away!
Zhang Wuji's situation was even more relaxed!
His Nine Yang Divine Skill completely countered Xuanming Elders, and he used Heaven and Earth Great Shift to protect his body. He was as steady as a rock when he was surrounded by the elites of Ruyang Mansion.
For a period of time, the situation descended into a stalemate.
Langye stood outside the crowd and stared at the Heavenly Sword in Zhou Zhiruo's hands with a burning gaze.
It was a divine weapon, Heavenly Sword.
He did not expect that Zhou Zhiruo would have already repaired it, and its might was not any weaker than before.
"I'll find a chance to make Zhou Zhiruo stay."
Langye stood behind Ruyang Mansion while the people from Sky Penetrating Tower surrounded him, and his wild ambition shone in his eyes.
Zhang Wuji was unfathomable and had no weaknesses, but Zhou Zhiruo was not that undefeatable. If he could kill Zhou Zhiruo and obtain Heavenly Sword, Langye was confident that he would be able to increase a few ranks on Dragon Rank. Blood Robes, Barren Murderer, and Zhou Yu might not be able to face the might of Heavenly Sword head-on.
At that moment …
An abnormal ruckus and the sounds of fighting rose in the mansion!
Prince Ruyang was shocked. Clearly, he did not expect that there would be a fight in his backyard.
"What's going on?"
A Yuan Dynasty soldier quickly came to report.
"Your Highness, it's coming from the direction of the dungeon. Someone broke out a prisoner!"
"There aren't any important people in the dungeon, so how could it be …?"
"It's a man and a woman we captured the night before yesterday. The people who broke out the prisoner are not weak. They actually managed to hold back A 'san and save the prisoner. Right now, they have already broken out of the dungeon."
"Trash!"
Prince Ruyang flew into a rage.
"This sort of murderous bandit is right under the emperor's nose! Immediately send someone to notify the city guards and have them lock down the entire city. They must make sure that they don't leave. "
Even though he said that, he did not send a single soldier from the gate to provide reinforcements!
Clearly, to Prince Ruyang, the Eighth Prince's life, his precious daughter's situation, the cult master of Ming Cult, and the sect leader of Emei Sect were much more important than a few nameless nobodies.
Langye, who stood by the side, listened carefully, and a dumbfounded expression appeared on his face!
Someone had actually seized the chance to break into Ruyang Mansion at night and forcefully snatch the prisoner Prince Ruyang had locked up. By the sounds of it, the person was not weak …
The three servants of Ruyang Mansion were all in Inaction Realm!
Could a normal person hold back A 'san and save the prisoner so that they could escape from the dungeon?!
A yellow figure that made him respect suddenly appeared in Langye's mind. His heart trembled slightly, and he subconsciously turned around to look at the backyard of Ruyang Mansion. To his surprise, he was just in time to see a familiar figure that shocked his heart charge over. He sucked in a sharp breath, and his eyes gradually widened.
"There's no way it's that coincidental, right?"
