Chapter 669: Imperial Palace Master
Chapter 669: Imperial Palace Master
The eunuchs in flowery clothes who accompanied the delegation on this trip were all elite members of the Imperial Household Department.
Those who were brought by the two general managers to participate in the operation today are the elite among the elite.
They generally have the strength of the fifth rank, and a few have even reached the fourth rank.
The range of Lu Ji's Dao realm is indeed very large, but it is also because of this that the lethality of the Dao realm is dispersed.
But from the perspective of the ambushing party, such control was enough.
As the eunuchs in flowery clothes were entangled by the blue and silver vines that broke out of the ground, a large group of people suddenly appeared on the originally peaceful cliff and rushed towards them.
These people were dressed in black, with black scarves covering their faces, and holding all kinds of weapons in their hands. They were the secret guards of Prince Zheng's palace.
Seeing that the enemy had appeared, the eunuchs in flowery clothes immediately broke free from the vines and prepared for battle.
Zhao Feng immediately soared into the sky, creating a breeze with his hands.
But the vines seemed to sense the hidden breeze and suddenly accelerated their growth, rushing towards Zhao Feng.
The blue-silver vines were so fast that they just caught up with Zhao Feng's attack and blocked the breeze before it hit the secret guard.
But the vines were silently cut into pieces and collapsed with a loud bang.
This sudden change made the charging secret guards stunned, but their speed did not slow down at all.
At this time, the secret guards and the eunuchs in flowery clothes had rushed together and started fighting.
The individual quality of the secret guards was not as good as that of the eunuchs in flowery clothes, but with their numerical advantage and mutual cooperation, they managed to fight to a draw.
The foundation of the Daxing royal family is difficult to erase even for someone as powerful as King Zheng.
The masters of the Imperial Palace have been passed down for countless generations, and they can always find suitable candidates for training among the young eunuchs who enter the palace.
More importantly, they have no distractions. They have walked a path that their predecessors have walked countless times. As long as they work hard, they can cultivate to the limit of their talents.
On the contrary, although King Zheng also spent a lot of effort in training secret guards, it was ultimately not as good as the nearly thousand years of foundation of the Daxing royal family.
This gap cannot be made up in a short period of time.
Therefore, Emperor Yongyuan was also very clear that his greatest reliance was the inheritance of the Palace.
Without these loyal members of the imperial family to the Daxing royal family, Emperor Yongyuan would not have survived to this day.
Li Xuan watched the battle between the flowery eunuch and the secret guards and breathed a sigh of relief.
The eunuchs in flowery clothes have the advantage in strength. Even if the secret guards can rely on numbers to support them, they can only hold on for a while.
The other party wanted to rely on the level of experts to crush the two stewards, and then have Lu Ji, a second-grade warrior, come forward to deal with the remaining miscellaneous soldiers.
A second-grade warrior against two third-grade warriors is naturally a sure win.
Logically speaking, this should be the case.
The blue and silver vines that emerged from the ground mainly attacked the two stewards.
Moreover, surrounded by blue and silver vines, blood-red thorns would occasionally appear and launch sneak attacks with terrifying power.
Just like before, Lu Ji did not show up in the battle, but she could never have imagined that her specific location had already been locked by Li Xuan.
"Every time she hides her head and shows her tail, is it possible that Qian Teng Mo Ji is not good at close combat?"
Li Xuan's eyes rolled around and this idea came to his mind.
The fight had already started here, and the two stewards felt greatly suppressed because they were enveloped by Lu Ji's Tao realm.
Both of them were only at the third rank, but Zhao Feng had just entered the third rank not long ago, while Manager Shang was at the peak of the third rank with one foot halfway into the next realm.
But facing the true second-rank powerhouse Qian Teng Mo Ji, they could not use many tricks and could only hold on with difficulty.
"Where are the masters of the imperial palace arranged by Emperor Yongyuan?"
"It will be too late if we don't take action now."
Li Xuan looked anxiously towards the place where Qian Teng Mo Ji was hiding.
Thousand Vine Demon Princess was hiding under the cliff at this time, just thirty or forty feet below them.
She was like a seed buried deep in the soil, hidden within the cliff, her whole body curled up into a small ball, with roots of different colors spreading out from her body, covering the entire cliff through the earth.
"What a cunning way to fight."
"Even if she loses, it will be difficult for others to find her location."
"It's almost like minimizing your risk before the battle."
Li Xuan curled his lips, feeling somewhat disdainful of Lu Ji's fighting style.
Although this is a smart way to fight, Li Xuan still prefers to face the battle head-on.
After all, when practicing, if there is no pressure at all, it will be difficult to force yourself to keep moving forward.
Lu Ji’s fighting style is indeed comfortable, but if one gets used to this comfort, it would be difficult for one to have the idea of fighting to the death.
A person who only thinks about retreating can easily push himself into a dead end without realizing it.
boom--
With a huge roar, the entire cliff shook.
The flowery-clothed eunuchs and secret guards who were in the fight hurriedly used lower body skills such as the Thousand-Jin Weight to maintain their body shape.
If a flaw is revealed during a battle, it can be fatal.
Hearing this huge noise, although Li Xuan knew that it must be the palace masters arranged by Emperor Yongyuan who had arrived, the powerful and unfamiliar aura made him feel uneasy.
"Who is this?"
"What a powerful aura!"
Li Xuan was shocked.
Compared with Mr. Ye’s low-key and introverted personality, this person’s aura is like a towering mountain, which makes people unable to ignore and feel impressed.
The blue-silver vines on the cliff began to wither rapidly, and then turned into powder and scattered all over the ground.
The two stewards were no longer restricted by the vines and directly led the eunuchs in flowery clothes to kill, slaughtering the secret guards one-sidedly.
Faced with the combined attack of two third-rank masters, the secret guards had no power to fight back and were unilaterally destroyed.
Especially Zhao Feng's way was like a breeze. He could kill people silently and swiftly.
The huge number of secret guards fell like rice being harvested, their heads and bodies separated, and they fell limply to the ground.
Li Xuan just glanced at it and stopped looking.
Without Lu Ji's support, these secret guards can only wait for death.
He rushed to the edge of the cliff, stretched his neck hard to look, and saw a master from the Imperial Palace floating in the air.
I saw a short figure standing on a suspended stone in mid-air. This person was also dressed as a eunuch. Although he looked old, he had shiny black hair, and his face was radiant and he had a happy smile on his face.
"Meow, why did Emperor Yongyuan send him here!"
Li Xuan couldn't help but be shocked.
The master of the palace who provided secret support turned out to be Wang Xi, the eunuch in charge of lighting for Emperor Yongyuan.
Li Xuan knew that Wang Xi was no simple man, but he did not expect him to be so terrifying.
I saw that a big hole was dug out where Lu Ji had been hiding before, and a transparent hole appeared on the cliff.
The cliff is already in a dangerous position, and now with the addition of a hole running through the front and back, it creates a fantastic sight, like a lifelike mountain eagle perched on the edge of the cliff.
Wang Xi held one hand in the air facing the cliff, and directly opposite him was a huge stone ball.
It was obvious that this stone ball was taken out from the cliff, and inside was the Lu Ji who had previously controlled the Dao Realm.
Li Xuan looked at this scene and was so shocked that his eyes widened.
"Outrageous..."
Wang Xi had a smile on his face, but his clenched hands were constantly tightening.
The huge stone ball seemed to be affected by some huge external force. It was constantly being compacted and its volume was getting smaller and smaller.
Under the pressure of such a powerful external force, Lu Ji, who was trapped inside, must have felt very uncomfortable.
On the other side, after the two stewards and the eunuchs in flowery clothes had dealt with all the secret guards, they immediately ordered them to evacuate the place with the bodies of the secret guards. The two stewards came to support Wang Xi.
"Emperor Yongyuan only sent Wang Xi here?"
"Can he keep Qian Teng Mo Ji by himself?"
Seeing that no one else showed up, Li Xuan couldn't help but frown.
We have finally got such a good opportunity, but we must not let the enemy escape because of our complacency.
Otherwise, it will not be easy to have such a good opportunity again.
The two stewards came to Wang Xi's side, but neither of them said anything to disturb him.
In this level of battle, they can only play a supporting role.
The stone ball was continuously compressed and was now only the size of a millstone, but its hardness had also reached a terrifying level.
But at this moment, the stone ball exploded, splashing out countless pieces of gravel.
These pieces of debris carried enormous power and were deeply embedded in the surrounding mountains and rocks like shotgun shells.

Fortunately, the eunuchs in flowery clothes had already evacuated the cliff at this time, otherwise this kind of large-scale killing would likely have affected them.
Wang Xi shook his head, seeming a little regretful.
Lu Ji's graceful figure escaped from the stone ball.
There were countless bright vines entangled around her body. The thorns on the vines tore into Lu Ji's clothes and then pierced her smooth and white skin.
As the vines were nourished by Lu Ji's blood, they trembled and squirmed as if they had life, blocking the vital parts of her body and forming a tight vine armor with a strange beauty.
The vine armor squirmed like colorful poisonous snakes, and gathered into a colorful long whip covered with spikes in Lu Ji's hands.
These changes were completed in an instant. The moment Lu Ji rushed out of the rubble, she shook the whip in her hand, and the whip suddenly stood straight, like a spear, and stabbed Wang Xi fiercely.
The two stewards retreated tacitly so as not to hold Wang Xi back.
Wang Xi smiled slightly, calm and composed.
The long whip had a bluish-purple luster, and it looked like something that could not be touched.
As a result, Wang Xi calmly raised his hand and rushed towards Lu Ji.
Li Xuan, who was observing secretly, saw this scene and couldn't help but feel worried, thinking that Wang Xi was too arrogant.
Lu Ji had already used the Dao Armor, but Wang Xi had not even deployed his own Dao Realm.
But the next moment, the straight long whip stopped less than a foot in front of Wang Xi.
Lu Ji gripped the whip, gritted her teeth and thrust forward, but it didn't move at all.
Seeing this scene, Li Xuan couldn't help but narrow his eyes slightly.
The aura emanating from Wang Xi is extremely powerful, and it is not actually of a single attribute.
"It has the attribute of earth, and also has a mixture of yang attributes..."
“These two attributes blend very harmoniously.”
"Yangtu?"
Li Xuan could only summarize Wang Xi's true qi properties in this way.
Wang Xi didn't even activate his Dao realm, but he managed to suppress Lu Ji's attack with one hand.
There was a faint, distorted black light flashing on the raised hand, and this black light also spread to Lu Ji's body, making her look painful.
"Little girl, you are still too young."
Wang Xi said with a smile.
The next moment, it was as if two invisible hands pressed down on Lu Ji's body.
The vine armor on her body responded immediately, growing several sturdy spikes to support her in space.
But these spikes were quickly broken off, and new spikes grew out, buying time for Green Princess.
Lu Ji stared at Wang Xi hatefully, and it seemed quite difficult for her to even move a finger.
On the other hand, Wang Xi looked at Lu Ji indifferently with a relaxed smile on his face.
"The second-rank Lu Ji was crushed like this?"
Li Xuan looked at this scene in disbelief.
"Could it be that Wang Xi has already opened up the Dao realm?"
"Otherwise, this strange ability can't be just a manifestation of his Tao, right?"
Li Xuan stared at the battle situation without even blinking.
Wang Xi's fighting ability is a bit weird. He can easily crush Lu Ji who can transform herself into armor.
"Is it because Midoriki is too weak?"
“Not really…”
Li Xuan could only continue to watch the development of the battle and wait and see.
After Lu Ji bought some time, the vine armor on her body began to wriggle violently, and then suddenly shrank and expanded, turning into a spherical plant covered with thorns.
The impact of this sudden change was so strong that she escaped from Wang Xi's control.
But Wang Xi's reaction was not slow either. He immediately followed up with another palm strike, smashing it down like slapping a fly, knocking the entire spherical plant into the ground, creating a deep pit and stirring up dust.
Zhao Feng took action immediately, using Breeze to blow away the dust that blocked his vision while chasing.
Manager Shang stood guard beside the two men and did not act rashly.
Water creates wood, and his Qi attribute is not suitable for dealing with Lu Ji.
Moreover, there is a gap in their cultivation levels, so it might just backfire.
"You two help me scout the enemy, I can do it myself."
Wang Xi left a word to the two stewards and then rushed down alone.
He moved on the suspended stone, moving in the air at an extremely fast speed.
Wang Xi stared at the big hole on the ground and said loudly in a resonant voice:
"Since the guests have been waiting here for a long time, why should they leave in such a hurry?"
Wang Xi discovered that Lu Ji was escaping underground.
Only then did Li Xuan understand why Emperor Yongyuan sent Wang Xi, an earth-type warrior, to deal with Lu Ji, a wood-type warrior.
Although wood overcomes earth in the five elements, due to Wang Xi's powerful strength, there is no room for Lu Ji to restrain him.
On the contrary, she wanted to use her own abilities to escape, but most of the time she could not avoid relying on the ground beneath her feet, which made it easy for Wang Xi to control her every move.
"Wang Xi should not be a first-rank, otherwise it would be easier to beat Lu Ji."
"But at the same level, can it be possible to turn the tables and use earth to insult wood?"
Li Xuan's frown was filled with doubts.
"Is it because of that Yang attribute?"
Li Xuan's Yin-Yang Qi can restrain all the power in the world, because his Yin-Yang Qi is the source of all the power in the world.
And Wang Xi was able to restrain himself even though he was at the same level, which obviously showed that he had his own special qualities.
Li Xuan has only seen this perfect fusion of Yang and Earth attributes in Wang Xi.
On weekdays, Li Xuan never noticed the peculiarity of this person.
If Wang Xi had not taken action today, Li Xuan would probably have continued to be kept in the dark.
"It seems that Emperor Yongyuan still has a few trump cards in his hand."
Li Xuan turned his head and looked at the Green Princess's aura escaping frantically underground, and couldn't help but gloat:
"A second-grade master who has transformed himself into armor can still hit a wall. How can this be justified?"
