Chapter 288: The Hall of Cycles
It is this oath that reveals the sacred duty of the "Flying Eagle Guard", which they firmly carry out within the territory of Daxia and suppress all acts of bullying.
The people of Daxia are unique because of the protection of the "Flying Eagle Guard". Their lives are full of hope and they are full of longing for the future.
Xia Zhongnan's heart was filled with ripples, and his thoughts began to wander...
"stop!"
Suddenly, a command was heard, and then more than a dozen figures surrounded Xia Zhongnan and Tu Shan Fang'er.
The two stopped walking, and the young man who called himself Kong Qi came over slowly, fanning himself. He looked at Tu Shan Fang'er and said with a smile, "I didn't expect that I, Kong Qi, would have double happiness today! Not only did I acquire this tavern, but I also met such a beautiful lady! Girl, what's your name, where are you from, and are you willing to marry into my Kong family and become my concubine?"
Tu Shanfang'er's eyes flashed with murderous intent. She was disgusted by Kong Qi's frivolity and shouted, "Get lost!"
Kong Qi smiled but said nothing: "Girl, you have a hot temper! Do you know who I am and what the consequences will be if you offend me?"
Seeing this, the crowd gathered and watched the farce.
Xia Zhongnan looked around, but he did not see indignation or sympathy in those people's eyes, only the expressions of gloating spectators.
He couldn't help but feel lost.
It seems that these people have become numb and have lost the compassion that ordinary people should have.
No wonder Tu Shan Fang'er said that she didn't like this place. The atmosphere here lacks the soul of the people of Da Xia.
Tu Shan Fang Er asked back: "Who are you and what is your status? What does it have to do with me?"
Kong Qi laughed loudly: "I'm afraid I'll scare you if I tell you this, I'm the son of Lord Kong, the Prime Minister of Mang State, and I'm also a disciple of the Supreme Sect 'Spiral Hall'. In this Mang State, who dares to offend me?"
Tu Shanfang'er didn't care about the Prime Minister of Mang Kingdom, but when she heard that he was a disciple of the Supreme Sect, she was still worried that it would bring trouble to Xia Zhongnan.
Xia Zhongnan said, "Don't pay attention to him, let's go!"
Xia Zhongnan no longer cares about the so-called "Supreme Sect". He is no longer interested in these ignorant people and has lost the mood to wander around here. He decides to go straight to the Mang Kingdom Palace and leave as soon as possible after completing the alliance.
On the mysterious continent, Kong Qi mistakenly thought that Xia Zhongnan intended to escape, and stood in front of the two of them like lightning, mockingly saying, "You can leave, but this little girl must stay!"
Xia Zhongnan responded coldly: "No one who dares to block my way will escape unscathed!"
With Xia Zhongnan's tacit approval, Tu Shanfang'er was no longer polite. With a crisp "slap", she slapped Kong Qi in the face at an astonishing speed.
Tu Shan Fang'er attacked in anger with incredible force. Even though Kong Qi had the spiritual level of cultivation, the slap directly hit his head off and he rolled into the terrified crowd of onlookers.
The crowd panicked and scattered in all directions, screaming and crying. In an instant, only Kong Qi was left rolling on the ground with his eyes wide open.
After the commotion, the street fell into dead silence, and everyone stared at Xia Zhongnan and Tu Shan Fang'er in fear. The dozen or so people who had surrounded them before were now trembling with their legs, and some of them had their crotches soaked with sweat.
Then, a thunderous roar came from the restaurant: "Who dares to hurt my disciples?"
Following the roar, three practitioners in the Guixu realm broke out of the window and stopped in front of Xia Zhongnan and Tu Shan Fang'er.
Tu Shan Fang Er asked, "Are you the people from the legendary 'Temple of Whirlwind'?"
One of the Guixu cultivators looked at Tushan Fang'er and said, "I didn't expect that a young girl could be a powerful Guixu cultivator! How can you be considered a hero if you use the power of Guixu to deal with the Hualing disciples?"
Obviously, he was the teacher of Kong Qi who had just gotten angry.
Tu Shan Fang Er retorted: "If a disciple has problems, he should solve them himself. If someone else is needed to help, then they can do whatever they want. Don't you understand this principle?"
Kong Qi's master was filled with grief and anger, and laughed wildly: "You dare to kill my disciple, you will not escape death today!"
The three Guixu monks drew their weapons at the same time. Two of them were on guard against Xia Zhongnan, while Kong Qi's master wielded a ghost-head knife and slashed at Tu Shan Fang'er.
Tu Shan Fang'er showed two short knives in her hands. She raised her left knife to block the downward slash of the ghost-head knife, and stabbed the enemy's chest with her right knife without hesitation.
The master of the ghost-head knife did not expect Tu Shan Fang'er's counterattack to be so fierce. He reacted quickly, using the force of the sword to counterattack, and used the recoil force of the collision between the sword and the knife to fly backwards and avoid a knife piercing the chest.
Tu Shan Fang'er took advantage of the situation and advanced again, with her two short swords flying up and down, launching a fierce attack on Kong Qi's master.
After only a few rounds, Kong Qi's master let out a shrill scream, one of his arms was cut off by Tu Shan Fang'er's dagger, and there were several bleeding wounds on his body.
Seeing that he was in a critical situation, the two Guixu cultivators who were originally on guard against Xia Zhongnan had to abandon Xia Zhongnan and instead rushed towards Tushan Fang'er. The three of them joined forces to besiege him.
Xia Zhongnan believed in Tu Shanfang'er's strength and stood quietly, admiring this fierce duel...
Under the siege of the three illusion hunters, Tu Shan Fang'er became more and more agile, and her moves were as fast as an ever-changing illusion. Even the three practitioners in the Void Realm felt pressured to deal with her.
The battle between the Voidmen eventually alarmed the guardians of the Wild City. Several thunderous shouts were heard from three directions at the same time: "Stop!"
At this moment, a shrill scream was heard again on the battlefield. Tu Shan Fang'er gracefully retreated to Xia Zhongnan's side, while Kong Qi's master had already fallen in a pool of blood, with blood gushing out of his chest, his breath weak, and his life hanging by a thread.
Apparently, Tu Shan Fang'er sensed someone approaching and killed him without hesitation.
This nine-tailed fox is ruthless and decisive, and never shows mercy when it attacks.
The three rescuers from the Void Realm witnessed that they tried to stop them but still failed to prevent the tragedy, and they all glared at Tu Shan Fang'er.
Behind them, several city defense teams came galloping quickly. They were the guardians who maintained the order of the city.
Two Voidmen from the "Vortex Illusion" checked Master Kong Qi's injuries and suddenly shouted in grief: "Junior Brother!"
It was obvious that the injured person had no chance of survival.
Another person said to the three Voidmen who had arrived: "We are Gong Wenpu and Pei Zhongcheng from the 'Swirl Fantasy'. The victim is our senior brother Qian Wanliang. Please, three adults, seek justice!"
One of the Voiders who came over looked at Tu Shan Fang'er and asked, "I am Lian Wenyue, the captain of the Wild City Guard. Who are you? How dare you kill a Voider from the 'Vortex Fantasy' in the middle of a busy city?"
Tu Shan Fang'er responded calmly: "The commander-in-chief of the Great Xia Empire's 'Tian Xiang Guard', Tu Shan Fang'er!"
Lian Wenying said sternly, "Are you from Xia? How dare you kill innocent people in this wild place? Capture me! Anyone who resists will be killed without mercy!"
The city guards were about to take action when another Void One stopped them, "Wait!"
He glanced at Tushan Fang'er, glanced at Xia Zhongnan, and turned to her: "I am the captain of the imperial guard, Shang Chengxun. I have heard for a long time that Daxia has newly established the 'Tianxiang Guard'. Its commander-in-chief Tushan Fang'er is a heroine. Please ask the commander-in-chief and this... lord to follow me to the palace to meet our king!"
After all, Shang Chengxun is a close confidant of Yi Guangshan, the monarch of Mang State, and has much more information than the city guard captain Lian Wenyue.
