"Don't worry, at least we're not killing them right now."
Lin Jiu'an patted the coral palace's bottom.
"Put your clothes on properly, we have guests coming soon."
Hear the words.
Coral Palace Heart Sea suddenly felt even more uneasy, but still obediently went to get dressed.
When Beidou and his two companions secretly sneaked into the vicinity of the house.
Then I saw candlelight shining inside the room.
Lin Jiu'an's voice came from inside the room: "Since you're all here, come in."
Hearing that familiar voice, Hokuto felt a chill run down her spine. She knew her ominous premonition had come true, but no one had told Goro that the 'Shogunate envoy' was actually that person!
But there's not much to say now.
"Do it!"
As Beidou roared, the three people lurking in three different directions attacked simultaneously.
Lightning, rocks, and strong winds.
Three different weapons, each imbued with one of three elements, simultaneously hurtled straight toward Lin Jiu'an, who was sipping tea, from three directions.
But only for a moment.
Just as the arrows shimmering with the light of rocks, the heavy sword flashing with lightning, and the longsword carrying a gentle breeze were only a few dozen centimeters away from Lin Jiu'an's head, heart, and neck, they seemed to have struck a semi-transparent barrier of wind.
After a brief stalemate, the arrow fell limply to the ground.
The longsword, carrying a gentle breeze, was knocked aside, and Kaedehara Manyo staggered back several steps.
Purple lightning exploded on Beidou's heavy sword, and she was smashed backward, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
And Lin Jiu'an is the 'protagonist'.
He was sitting at the tea table, gently blowing on the still-steaming teacup.
They seemed completely unaware of what was happening around them.
Meanwhile, Coral Palace Heart Sea knelt beside him like a beautiful maid, watching Goro, Hokuto, and Kaedehara Manyo burst into the room at the same time. Her originally rosy face, which had been well-nourished, suddenly turned deathly pale.
"escape!"
"When the first attack fails, Beidou shouts almost immediately."
The three people fled in three different directions almost instantly.
But the next moment.
They stopped in their tracks.
Whether it was Goro's innate, extraordinary sense of danger as a dog demon, or Hokuto and Kaedehara Manyo's combat instincts honed through countless life-or-death battles, both were telling them that it was best not to step out of the room.
The surroundings of this room.
It was shrouded in a layer of faint, earthy yellow light and Thor's translucent 'wind'.
They can't get out!
Lin Jiu'an put down his teacup and said with a faint smile, "Since you're already here, why leave?"
Coral Palace Heart Sea wanted to plead for them.
But just as she was about to speak, Lin Jiu'an gave her a half-smile, half-smile, and Coral Palace Xin Hai could only lower her head in silence.
Hokuto, Goro, and Kaedehara Manyo turned around, exchanged glances to maintain a formation where they could help each other, and then looked at Lin Jiu'an, who was still sitting leisurely at the tea table.
"How will you be here?"
"Why am I here?"
Lin Jiu'an scoffed: "Do you want me to call you stupid, or do you want me to call you stupid?"
"Don't you even check who you're trying to kill before you act?"
Beidou's expression darkened. She also wanted to gather intelligence before taking action, but time was of the essence. If she delayed any longer, the reputation of Coral Palace Xinhai would plummet.
and.
Lin Jiu'an and Coral Palace Xin Hai stayed in the room all day without coming out.
—She never expected that Lin Jiu'an would actually impersonate an envoy of the Inazuma Shogunate and come to the Coral Palace.
"I told you so."
"A nobody should just be a nobody."
"Don't touch what you shouldn't touch."
"otherwise..."
Lin Jiu'an stood up, and lightning appeared on his right hand, which was loosely clenched.
Beidou felt a sense of impending death almost instinctively, and she immediately raised her heavy sword.
But in a flash, Lin Jiu'an, who had been facing away from her, suddenly appeared in front of her, several meters away, and slashed down at her with a purple sword blade made of lightning.
The broad greatsword and the lightning longsword clashed.
The electric arc made a crackling sound in the air, like the harsh sounds of thunder.
Beidou suddenly felt a weight on his hand.
How could he be so strong?!
Beidou was terrified. Strength was her greatest source of pride, and she was even confident that she could hold her own against Lin Jiu'an, who was so powerful that he was almost like an immortal.
However, reality dealt her a devastating blow.
In just a moment, Beidou felt a sharp pain in his hand, and the heavy sword could no longer be held and slipped from his grasp.
Before the greatsword could even fall to the ground, the longsword crackling with lightning struck her.
The moment it touched her, the blade transformed into a net of lightning, completely enveloping her, with lightning constantly striking her body.
"Aa ...
Beidou gritted his teeth and endured it.
But it was clearly the same lightning that she controlled and commanded.
But the excruciating pain from Lin Jiu'an's lightning spreading across her body exceeded her expectations and was beyond her tolerance.
Almost instantly.
All of Beidou's resistance was thus shattered.
*~Group-⊙Lu¤Liu∩/Liu∽Ling=Ling≠Ba∝+)(*^And¢
She let out a miserable scream, her stubbornly beautiful eyes rolled back instantly, and her healthy and voluptuous body collapsed to the ground, trembling incessantly under the purple electric net, with a pool of clear liquid flowing beneath her.
next moment.
A gentle breeze blew to his side.
Lin Jiu'an turned around and grabbed it.
He grabbed Kaedehara Manyo's arm and slammed him toward Goro, who was drawing his bow and preparing to shoot an arrow.
'Bang!'
The two collided, crashing heavily into a stone pillar that suddenly rose up behind them.
"Pfft!"
Goro, who had become a 'cushion', couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.
Even though Kaedehara Manyo had been given a buffer.
His face was also pale, and he staggered to his feet, but purple arcs of electricity were constantly flowing through his body, and his handsome face was showing signs of pain.
Looking at Goro, who had barely managed to get up, and Kaedehara Manyo, who stood with his sword in hand.
Lin Jiu'an chuckled.
"That's it?"
What I just said wasn't a short time, but it actually happened in the blink of an eye.
There wasn't even enough time to pick up a teacup and take a sip of tea.
But in such a short time, they became a trio with almost top-tier martial arts skills among mortals.
Beidou, the 'leader' of the system, has been rendered useless and lies on the ground, twitching intermittently.
Kaedehara Manyo and Goro also suffered injuries of varying degrees, and their faces were pale.
"Brother, please let them go."
Seeing her friends and subordinates in such a miserable state, Coral Palace Heart Sea couldn't help but plead, "I'll do whatever you say from now on."
"Do not beg for his mercy, Lord Coral Palace."
Goro wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and stared intently at Lin Jiu'an.
"Even if it costs me my life, I will get you out of here!"
Kaedehara Manyo gritted his teeth as well.
With a surge of wind element, he shook off the lightning snakes that were coiling around him, gripped his sword tightly, and watched Lin Jiu'an's every move, demonstrating his stance through his actions.
I would rather die than surrender!
Even if you're stubborn, you still can't beat him!
Nian Shanhu Palace was both angry and anxious. She wanted to say something, but then she heard Lin Jiu'an say with a smile.
"Alright then, Xin Hai."
“If you lay a hand on me, I will let them go and leave the Coral Palace.”
Coral Palace Xin Hai looked at Lin Jiu An blankly.
"Brother..."
'Ta-la!'
A sharp stone sword was thrown in front of her.
"Take that sword, cut me, and I'll spare their lives. Now I'm leaving."
"You'd better just sit there quietly and shut up."
"You choose."
Coral Palace Heart Sea looked at the handle of the stone sword.
Lin Jiu'an's words kept echoing in his mind.
Her cherry lips trembled, and her once moist and rosy lips had become bloodless. Two lines of clear tears flowed from her beautiful eyes, and she even felt three expectant gazes falling on her.
Just take this sword and cut him.
Then one's friends and subordinates will be saved, and the people of Coral Palace and Sea Island will also be saved.
After a day and a night of 'turmoil,' Coral Palace Xin Hai's mind was now as if bewitched, with these words constantly swirling around her, and she had no idea how much time had passed.
finally.
Coral Palace Xin Hai covered her face and started to sob. Then she curled up and buried her head between her legs, only saying "I'm sorry!" over and over again.
"It seems the people you want to save don't really want to save you," Lin Jiu'an mocked.
Wulang ignored Lin Jiu'an's sarcasm and smiled as he looked at Coral Palace Xinhai, who was in a state of collapse and self-blame.
"Lord Coral Palace, there is no need to blame yourself."
"This is what I, as a subordinate, should do."
"If I could die for you, it would be my honor. Please do not feel guilty about my death."
Goro then looked at Kaedehara Manyo and said, "I'm sorry for dragging you all into this. It's my fault."
Despite the pain, Kaedehara Manyo forced a smile.
