The deacons of the Holy Hall were usually old, so it was impossible for an old man like Ge Yang to wear such heavy armor. Only young deacons like Lin Muyu and Zhen Fang would wear such armor. In this world, the use of armor couldn't be ignored. Not only could it provide a great defense, it could also allow cultivators to avoid some arrows and sword attacks. Although Lin Muyu's Battle Armor could block ordinary sword attacks, it would still consume her battle qi. In a real battle, it was better not to use Battle Armor if possible.
…
The deacon's armor was still silver-gray, but the emblem was no longer a golden shield, but a golden leaf. The golden leaf represented life and power, an existence higher than that of an instructor and sparring partner.
Holding the new armor in her hand, Lin Muyu bowed and said with a smile, "Thank you for your kindness, Great Deacon. I, Lin Muyu, will not let down the Holy Temple."
"That's good. Rest early. Tomorrow morning, you will be working for the Holy Temple as a deacon." Lei Hong said with a smile.
"En, I know."
Everyone dispersed. It was already late at night, and everyone was tired. Lin Muyu was assigned to another room. He placed the armor in place, but didn't go to bed. Instead, he took out a set of black clothes from his Cosmos Bag. It was a night suit, plus a mask. He bought it at the Imperial City's trading firm last time, and now it came in handy.
After changing his clothes, Zhang Xuan strapped the Dragon Spirit Sword to his back and pushed open the back door of the room. The side hall was quiet and empty. Zhang Xuan leaped up and activated the Falling Star Steps. His entire body landed lightly on the tiles and flew away silently.
After a few leaps and bounds, he left the Holy Temple. Lin Muyu's goal was the posthouse. That's right, something was bound to happen in the posthouse tonight!
For Lin Muyu, the biggest task tonight was to protect Su Qin!
That's right, not only did Su Qin kill Xiang Yu's uncle, Hu Tiening, he even killed Xiang Yu's biological mother in the chaotic battle. She was Xiang Yu's only relative in this world. With Xiang Yu's unruly nature, how could he possibly tolerate such an irreconcilable hatred? During the day, Xiang Yu had kept a low profile and did not act up, but at night, Xiang Yu would definitely not let the matter rest. With his current strength, it would not be too difficult for him to silently kill Su Qin, who was only at the first Firmament of the Heaven realm. In fact, it might even be done in an instant.
If Su Qin died, Su Muyun would definitely vent his anger on Xiang Yu. At that time, there would be a lot of trouble.
Moreover, Su Qin was Qin Yin's uncle. Although he was reckless and cruel, he was still Qin Yin's uncle, so he had to ask.
…
In the middle of the night, the sky above Lanyan City was gloomy and gloomy. Fortunately, the lights from the ground allowed Lin Muyu to see everything on the roof. After activating the Spiritual Pulse Technique and hiding his aura, he carefully stepped on the roof of the posthouse with his cloth shoes. After a few minutes, he found Su Qin's residence. It was on the leftmost third floor of the posthouse.
Outside the door, eight soldiers of Muyu City stood guard. Su Muyun and Su Yu's rooms were a little further away.
Lin Muyu sat down next to the chimney and lay there quietly. This place was not easy to find, but it was the closest to Su Qin's room. He could reinforce them at any time. This night, he waited here. In his left arm, a vigorous Ancient Divine Power was surging. This Divine Power had already merged with his True Dragon Bloodline, and its power was infinite. Lin Muyu was even a little excited. He was afraid that Xiang Yu would not come tonight. If Xiang Yu did not come, he would lose this great opportunity to challenge Xiang Yu again.
After an unknown amount of time, there was a sudden squeak. The sound of the door opening came from the third floor of the posthouse. A person with a strange voice laughed in a sharp voice: "The women that the General needs have been brought. There are a total of three. Do you want to check them?"
Two guards walked forward and raised the lanterns in the corridor. They looked at the faces of the three women and smiled: "Yo, they look pretty, but … are they safe?"
"Our girls are all carefully selected. Don't worry."
"No, we have to be absolutely safe. We have to search them and confirm that they do not have any weapons on them before we can enter the General's room."
"Then let's search them."
"Okay."
One of the guards walked forward and placed his palm on the waist of one of the women. He slowly slid his palm across her body to check if there were any hidden weapons. However, the woman giggled and said: "Sir, slow down, you're making my heart itch …"
The guard's heart was also stirred. He pinched the woman's buttocks hard and said: "Little slut, you can go now. Next."
…
Lin Muyu, who was lying next to the chimney, couldn't help but frown as she endured the cold wind. She seemed to have gained a better understanding of Su Qin. This General is really unwilling to be lonely. He only stayed for one night in Lanyan City, yet he can't bear to live without a woman.
Soon, the three women entered Su Qin's room.
Not long after, the sound of moaning could be heard coming from the room. The guards were still standing there with a solemn expression, as if nothing had happened in the room.
After nearly an hour, it finally stopped. The lights in Su Qin's room were blown out. He had probably gone to rest.
Lin Muyu was still lying next to the chimney. She released the [Spirit Pulse Technique] and searched for all the auras nearby.
When the sound of snoring came from Su Qin's room, Lin Muyu frowned. She even began to wonder if she had guessed wrong. Would Xiang Yu wait until Su Qin and the others left Lanyan City before making a move? This … shouldn't be the case. Once Su Qin left Lanyan City, the thousands of heavy cavalry he left in the Dragon Seeking Forest would accompany and protect him. At that time, it would be even more difficult for Xiang Yu to assassinate the General first.
Just as Lin Muyu's heart was beating like a drum, a tyrannical aura suddenly appeared within the range of the [Spirit Pulse Technique]. Very strong. Xiang Yu is here!
Lin Muyu immediately became alert. She opened her palm and grasped the hilt of the Dragon Spirit Sword.
Two minutes later, a black shadow appeared on the roof in the distance. The newcomer was dressed in a tight outfit and carried a heavy sword in his hand. With a leap, he floated down from the opposite roof to the third floor of the Courier Hostel. But there were eight Muyu City Cavalry Guards in the corridor on the third floor!
However, a scene that Lin Muyu did not expect happened. The newcomer shook the blade in his hand, and with a "shua shua shua" sound, rays of sword light fell down. The eight Muyu City Cavalry Guards fell to the corridor almost without a sound, making soft banging sounds.
"Not good, it's too fast!"
Lin Muyu turned over and jumped down from the roof. The newcomer had already pushed open the door of Su Qin's room. Without a sound, he raised his sword and slashed at Su Qin!
"Shua!"
The biting cold sword energy swept past, leaving a trail of flames. When Lin Muyu stepped into the room, she saw Su Qin holding the long sword and retreating to a corner of the room. On the bed, two maids were hugging the quilt, trembling with fear. The quilt was stained with blood, and one of the maids was lying on the bed. Her head had been cut off by the assassin's sword.
"Die!"
The assassin heavily stabbed out with his sword, and with a "ding" sound, Su Qin's long sword was knocked away. His left fist was wrapped in flames, and it landed heavily on Su Qin's chest. Suddenly, the sound of bones breaking could be heard. Even someone as strong as Su Qin couldn't block a blow from the opponent?
This time, Lin Muyu was even more certain that the assassin was Xiang Yu. This [Fire Cloud Art] was his specialty!
"Peng!"
With a loud noise, Su Qin was punched through the wall and fell out of the Courier Hostel like a kite with a broken string.
Xiang Yu still wanted to rush down and deliver a blow, but he felt a cold wind behind him. It was the sound of a sword cutting through the air.
Xiang Yu suddenly turned around and parried with his two swords. He let out a shout and summoned his martial soul. The flaming Stepping Fire Tiger form lingered around his arms. With a roar, he swept out his sword. The blade was covered with flaming lotuses. It was the first attack of the Chaotic Nine Strikes — Chaotic Fire Lotus!
Lin Muyu quickly moved her left hand, and the golden gourd came out of her body. The wall of the gourd blocked the Chaotic Fire Lotus.
"Peng!"
With a loud noise, the two quickly separated and took a few steps back. This time, Lin Muyu and Xiang Yu's hasty attack were actually evenly matched. It was not one-sided like before.
When the golden gourd came out, Xiang Yu didn't need to think to know who the person in front of him was. Lin Muyu also knew who he was. Neither of them pointed it out, and without a word, they launched a second attack!
Chaotic Force lingered around Xiang Yu's body. He held his sword with both hands, and a flaming tornado condensed around him. It crushed the floor without any scruples. In the blink of an eye, the energy had already penetrated the floor. The residents on the second floor cried out in alarm and fled in panic.
As for Lin Muyu, she held her sword fearlessly. Streaks of lightning surged on the Dragon Spirit Sword. Without waiting for Xiang Yu's chaotic tornado to completely condense, she leaped forward and attacked!
"Boom!"
An explosion erupted from the third floor of the Courier Hostel. After this attack, Xiang Yu stood steadily in the air. Streaks of Battle Energy revolved under his feet, and he maintained his posture in the air. However, Lin Muyu was shaken to the point where she retreated a few steps with her sword. She slammed into the wall in a sorry state.
Xiang Yu let out a violent roar and switched from defense to offense. His longsword swept out with the energy of the chaotic tornado.
Seeing that this sword was about to cut her in half, Lin Muyu naturally wasn't going to sit and wait for death. She raised her left arm, and the form of a golden True Dragon circled around her. Golden scales quickly condensed, and it looked like a large dragon armor shield. Then, she let out a low roar and activated the Second Element Profound Force, which directly blasted toward Xiang Yu's blade!
True Dragon Arm + Two Luminaries Demonic Dance!
"Boom!"
The flames quickly crumbled, as did the fourth strike of Xiang Yu's Chaotic Nine Strikes. At the same time, Lin Muyu's fist landed heavily on his chest, and a resounding thump rang out as a small piece of his battle armor was shattered, but it was only an excruciating pain.
After retreating a few steps, Xiang Yu didn't say anything. He held his longsword horizontally, and a series of black holes appeared between his arms. This was the prelude to the sixth attack, Chaotic Annihilation!
Lin Muyu didn't dare to be negligent. She lowered her blade, and she activated her True Dragon Essence Flames and Helix Break again. At the same time, she summoned the Fourth Element with a furious roar. A series of Ghostly God Constellations appeared around her, and they all surged toward her longsword. Just like that, she controlled her longsword and charged toward Xiang Yu's ultimate attack!
"Boom …"
The sound of an explosion reverberated through the air, and the entire second and third floors of the posthouse were instantly razed to the ground. The golden gourd martial soul and the fiery red Stepping Fire Tiger martial soul lit up the night sky, and they contended against each other for a long ten seconds. Suddenly, the power was withdrawn and released, and an extremely powerful force rushed toward Lin Muyu's body. She couldn't help but throw up a mouthful of blood as she retreated and fell into a pile of rubble.
"Ugh …"
Xiang Yu also retreated several steps, and a streak of blood seeped from the corner of his mouth. A fierce light flickered in his eyes. He knew that if he didn't kill Lin Muyu today, it would probably be very difficult for him to kill this brat whose cultivation had advanced by leaps and bounds in the future.
But right at this moment, torches rose in the posthouse's courtyard, and a group of soldiers with heavy bows rushed over in the distance. They shouted, "The assassin is here! Kill him!"
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh …"
Sharp arrows flew everywhere, and Xiang Yu let out an indignant roar before disappearing into the night.
Sharp arrows also shot toward the nocturnal Lin Muyu. She didn't summon her martial soul again, and only used her Battle Armor to block the arrows. She raised her longsword and blasted open the wall behind her. Then, she activated the Falling Star Step and disappeared from everyone's sight at a speed faster than Xiang Yu.
…
Su Qin's Qi and blood were tumbling in his body. As he ran, he felt a faint uneasiness in his heart. Although Su Qin's life was saved, Xiang Yu's current cultivation had probably reached the Sanctuary realm. Sure enough, as Qu Chu once said, Xiang Yu would become the first powerhouse in hundreds of years to step into the Sanctuary realm before the age of 40!
