"Chi chi..." Chi Chi protested very unhappily. It hadn't drunk or eaten anyone else's things, it was all eating Xiaoyao's stuff. It was still very well-behaved, otherwise it feared Xiaoyao wouldn't bring it along in the future.
"Little glutton, I was just deceiving the Young Miss. Strange, the Young Miss still hasn't reacted. This shouldn't be right. Normally, as soon as she hears this, she imdiately gets extrely agitated with a big commotion! And she doesn't have any musical talent, so she couldn't possibly be entranced... " Xiaoyao was sowhat puzzled.
"Wait!" Xiaoyao suddenly rembered why this tune was so familiar. This was...
"Not good!!" After Xiaoyao thought of this answer, he understood the situation was bad. Soone wanted to use this opportunity to do sothing earth-shattering, such as—
Assassination!!
Xiaoyao saw two figures appear, flashing like lightning from both sides toward his direction. However, their target wasn't him, but Ning Zhiyuan in the middle. At this mont, Ning Zhiyuan was still sowhat entranced.
If there were no accidents at this ti, even if Ning Zhiyuan sensed the killing intent and imdiately recovered, he would still be injured. Since the opposition had made this move, they must be confident they could achieve a killing blow.
Therefore, Xiaoyao had to act to save Ning Zhiyuan. Whether to act and how to act, these were all problematic questions. Xiaoyao didn't have a sense of belonging to the Great Tang Empire. Whether Ning Zhiyuan lived or died had nothing to do with him.
...
However, since the Young Miss and her companion were now colonels of the Great Tang Empire, and Guxing was also at First Academy Under Heaven, plus he had more or less received benefits from the Great Tang while here, the question of whether to act was still easy to decide, he would act.
The most important question was how he would act. Could he block those two people's attacks? Obviously, this was sowhat difficult!
However, Xiaoyao had another thod, he could wake people up. That way, the problem would naturally be solved. At this mont, recovering even one second earlier could make the result completely different.
Because of this, although Xiaoyao had such concerns in his mind, they only flashed by. He imdiately made a decision and had a way to respond!
Buddhist Lion's Roar—
"ROAR!!"
This Lion's Roar was like morning bells, awakening Ning Zhiyuan and the others, especially the Young Miss and Nangong Suxin beside Xiaoyao!
Xiaoyao's Lion's Roar might not have been very strong, affecting only nearby people, but perhaps Ning Zhiyuan was lucky today, Xiaoyao happened to be near him. He didn't know that his arrangent had saved his life at this mont.
Even more fortunately, the Young Miss and Nangong Suxin also stayed here because of Xiaoyao. These two allowed Ning Zhiyuan to avoid even getting injured.
Originally, with Ning Zhiyuan's cultivation, facing the two people before him in this sudden situation, he would definitely be injured. These two assassins were not simple, they both had considerably higher strength than Ning Zhiyuan.
Of course, as long as Ning Zhiyuan could block one or two attacks, he wouldn't need to worry about other things. The protection around him would remove the danger.
When Xiaoyao's Lion's Roar sounded, a hint of surprise appeared in Hei Xue's eyes, and those two assassins' figures also paused slightly. But it was just this slight pause.
Although they knew the operation might have unexpected developnts, they still had to continue. They had already reached this step, they were arrows released from the bow, unable to be recalled.
They believed that even if Ning Zhiyuan had recovered now, they still had ways to kill him, at most paying a small price.
At this mont, there were no experts beside Ning Zhiyuan, or rather, those experts were completely insufficient in their eyes. They still had ti.
However, they seed to have forgotten one thing. Originally, there indeed were no experts beside Ning Zhiyuan who could hinder them, but because of Xiaoyao, the Young Miss and Nangong Suxin were also sitting there, not far from Ning Zhiyuan. They could completely go to rescue him.
And their strength would soon surprise everyone...
"Mo Yu!"
"Understood!"
Under Xiaoyao's Lion's Roar, the awakened Nangong Suxin imdiately shouted at the Young Miss. At the sa ti, she struck out with a palm. This palm wasn't aid at those two assassins, her position couldn't possibly pose a threat to them.
This palm was to give the Young Miss leverage.
The mont Nangong Suxin struck out, the Young Miss imdiately leaped, her body parallel to the ground. Her feet kicked toward Nangong Suxin's palm, using their combined force to reach Ning Zhiyuan's front at the fastest speed to block those two assassins.
Then Nangong Suxin also leaped out imdiately after, using the fastest speed to support the Young Miss.
"Blood Battle Under Heaven!"
When the Young Miss approached the assassin, she struck with a hand blade carrying intense blade qi toward the two assassins. Imdiately, blade force as substantial as reality appeared before everyone. The Young Miss used her strongest technique from the start.
At this mont, the Young Miss knew she didn't need to fight a prolonged battle, she only needed to burst forth for a short ti. Others would handle the rest.
This blade force also made everyone understand that this Twin Female War God was indeed worthy of her reputation. At such a young age, she was already an Emperor-level martial artist.
If one of them was like this, then the other twin must be the sa, also Emperor-level?
This was quickly proven. Nangong Suxin quickly arrived, with equally powerful techniques announcing that she was also an Emperor-level martial artist.
Looking ahead, Ning Zhiyuan never expected that he wouldn't need to act, the opponents had already been intercepted by this pair of twins. This was good. If an emperor was forced to act, it would damage national prestige, especially at this founding celebration. If this got out, people would definitely laugh.
Now it was different. This pair of twins had intercepted the assassins, not only preserving national prestige but also announcing to the world that the Great Tang Empire had two more Emperor-level experts, and such young ones at that. Their potential was limitless.
At the sa ti, Ning Zhiyuan never expected this pair of twins to react so quickly. Truly worthy of people who had walked through battlefields.
What Ning Zhiyuan expected even less was that it seed Xiaoyao had issued the warning that allowed everyone to wake up. Otherwise, the consequences would have been unthinkable.
This Xiaoyao had saved their lives again.
Now he really hoped Xiaoyao was Zhuyue's child. Having such a nephew would be an honor.
At this mont, Ning Zhiyuan seed to feel the crisis had passed. Yes, most people would think this way. This was the Great Tang imperial palace, and with the Young Miss and her companion holding them off, the rest was just a matter of ti. People would co to assist very soon.
Even that peerless expert from before couldn't stay here too long. The longer the ti, the more unfavorable for them and the more advantageous for Ning Zhiyuan.
Since even an peerless expert couldn't succeed, now these two, although more formidable than others, were still within the Emperor-level range. The imperial palace guards could handle them, not to ntion there were quite a few Emperor-level martial artists present, including Le Youran.
At this mont, Le Youran also naturally moved toward Xiaoyao's direction. Her first thought wasn't to help the Young Miss and her companion, but to ensure Xiaoyao's safety. In such chaotic circumstances, accidents could easily happen.
"Release the Qilin bombs!"
Just then, a chanical device outside the venue fired several fireworks toward the sky, positioned to cover all the upper areas nearby. Then the fireworks exploded in the air, and yellow smoke drifted down from above, enveloping all the surrounding areas.
This chanical device didn't seem to belong to Hei Xue's performance troupe, but to another acrobatic troupe. Obviously, these people were all suspicious. Perhaps there were even more.
This was sothing planned for a long ti, not only including the previous assassination plan but also subsequent backup plans. There might be more than one!!
"Damn, Qilin Smoke! Everyone hold your breath!" Xiaoyao used Lion's Roar to remind everyone. He believed that seeing this situation, most people would also hold their breath, but the problem was that if this continued, even holding breath would be useless.
Not only because one couldn't hold breath for long and would inhale it again, but most importantly, this Qilin Smoke could slowly penetrate through the skin. Given enough ti, one would still be affected.
However, the good news was that this Qilin Smoke wasn't lethal, it would just make people weak and powerless, leaving them unable to resist. Then, once they used the antidote, they could treat others like fish on a chopping board, doing whatever they wanted.
This type of Qilin Smoke could have many different formulations. Only the corresponding antidote would work, it was generally impossible to have one imdiately. This was why they chose this type of Qilin Smoke. If it were easy to counter, why would they bother.
"Xiaoyao, do you have an antidote?" The Young Miss felt holding her breath was too botherso and directly asked Xiaoyao. Since Xiaoyao could identify this substance, there was a high probability he could detoxify it.
"Detoxification pills!" Xiaoyao said directly. He didn't have a specific antidote, but he could use a universal type. Even if it couldn't detoxify, it could increase resistance.
"Got it!"
The Young Miss and Nangong Suxin imdiately threw the detoxification pills they carried into their mouths, then continued fighting!
"Useless. Detoxification pills can't neutralize this Qilin Smoke. This is specially formulated by us, costing countless manpower and resources. Originally, it wasn't needed, it's all because of your Lion's Roar!" Hei Xue looked at Xiaoyao and said calmly.
Hei Xue's words undoubtedly admitted that she was part of this assassination team, and her position wasn't low either. As for being an innocent victim forced into this, such a situation was impossible now.
