"Those should be the county governor and the county lieutenant. They are both using the Heavenly Demon Dragon Armor!"

Ji Xueying already had the ability to fly briefly. After getting off the saddle, she floated behind Lin Rui, holding a knife in one hand in a defensive posture, and using a powerful sword energy to protect Lin Rui and the horse under him as they moved forward.

The 'Demon Dragon Armor' originated from the extraterritorial demons. It was created 800 years ago by many mechanical masters who combined the so-called mobile armor technology of the extraterritorial demons.

They combined this combat machinery originating from the Sky Demon with the magic weapon manufacturing technology of Tianjixing to create the powerful armor "Sky Demon Dragon Armor", whose combat power far exceeds that of normal magic weapons.

However, due to the difficulty in refining the Heavenly Demon Dragon Armor and the extremely strict control of the imperial court, currently only high-ranking officials of the imperial court above the fifth rank can purchase it from the Great Song Dynasty's Artisan Supervisor.

The Demon Dragon Armor has advantages and disadvantages, and the prices vary.

Like the two in front, their armor should have reached the fifth level of the king level. The two of them joined forces and were able to barely deal with the dragon.

It is said that the armor her master was wearing was also level five, but it could only be used for self-defense, and even its defensive power could not be compared with that of the Demon Dragon Armor.

At this time, the two men relied on the power of the Heavenly Demon Dragon Armor to fight fiercely with the demon dragon in the middle of the Tianxiang River. The strong wind and waves swept across the surrounding area for several miles, so that Lin Rui's iron-scale horse felt dizzy when running and was almost blown away.

There were also countless water drops containing powerful energy, as well as scattered fist and knife energy, splashing and impacting towards this side, which was extremely dangerous.

Ji Xueying had no choice but to use her sword to clear the way and protect the two of them as they moved forward.

Lin Rui thought that these two people's families were really rich.

According to his recent understanding, the county magistrate and the county lieutenant were indeed relatively honest officials, but they could afford this expensive "Demon Dragon Armor".

Especially the tallest one, who was unarmed and covered with a red-gold horizontal training armor, had extremely strong combat power.

Lin Rui knew that this man was the county magistrate Li Changguo by looking at his martial arts skills.

This man used his Yuanci boxing technique to fight the dragon head-on, and he was able to stay in the air without retreating a single step, with a fierce and domineering aura.

The dragon's claws occasionally grabbed Li Changguo's armor, but only left shallow pits.

Lin Rui guessed that Li Changguo's armor was worth at least 30 taels of magic silver! County Lieutenant Qin Xia's suit was also worth no less.

The county magistrate had previously said that these two came from prominent families, but Lin Rui didn’t take it seriously.

Now it seems that he obviously underestimated the value of the word "big family".

Lin Rui rode his horse to the river bank, observed the environment for a while, and then galloped towards a hill not far away.

He dismounted at the highest point of the hill, then took out the Yuanshi and talismans in his pocket, forming a magic circle accurately and quickly.

Next, Lin Rui signaled Ji Xueying to open her clothes and used a cinnabar pen to draw runes on the Blood Knife Princess's skin.

He only drew a part of the rune, and a faint golden light appeared outside Ji Xueying's body.

"The technique I'm using now is called 'Altar Golden Body'. It can use the power of this altar to strengthen your strength and body. But be careful and use your inner strength to protect it. Never let these runes get wet!"

At this time, Lin Rui let out another exclamation of surprise.

He saw a figure rising into the sky from the river bank not far away and joining the battle.

The man was none other than the county magistrate Dong Linghui. He was holding a war bow in his hand and stepping on a disc-shaped magical weapon, shooting arrows at the dragon from a distance of a thousand feet.

Compared with the huge body of the dragon, the arrow in his hand was like a child's slingshot, but it was shot with amazing momentum.

As long as the arrow hits the target, it can break through the dragon's scales and penetrate into its flesh.

The dragon didn't care at all. Although the arrows were coated with poison, they only penetrated about one foot into the flesh.

He directly exploded the ball of flesh and blood contaminated with poison, and expelled all of it, along with the arrow, from the body. The dragon's powerful recovery ability could heal these wounds in an instant.

It was chasing the county magistrate Li Changguo, trying to destroy the set of Heavenly Demon Dragon Armor on him.

Li Changguo is now relying on this set of armor to fight against it. As long as it is destroyed, there will be no one in the entire Wangcheng County who can compete with it, and it will be allowed to run rampant.

As the dragon clawed its way into Li Changguo's outer defenses, leaving scratches on his armor, the corners of its lips rose slightly, revealing a mouthful of fine, sharp teeth.

"You bastard surnamed Li, it seems you're no match for me. You're far worse than the last time we fought!"

Li Changguo's face, hidden behind his armor, turned ashen.

It’s not that he is no longer able to fight today, but the combat power of this magic dragon has increased a lot compared to before it was seriously injured, with at least 20% more strength.

A few months ago, the three of them, together with the previous defender, were able to severely damage the dragon, but now they can only barely deal with it.

Li Changguo could already hear the "crackling" sound coming from inside his armor, and it was clearly approaching collapse under the fierce attack of the magic dragon.

His internal organs were continuously shaken.

County Lieutenant Qin Xia was trying his best to restrain the dragon. He held a six-foot-long sword in his hand and slashed at the dragon's back from behind, but all his attacks were blocked by the dragon's nimble tail.

County Magistrate Dong Linghui tried his best to increase the speed of his arrows to share the pressure with them. "County Governor, hold on a little longer. I see that Defense Envoy Lin has arrived. With the help of the Blood Blade Princess, we will definitely be able to subdue this beast."

Li Changguo's five senses and seven orifices were bleeding, and his mouth felt bitter.

The Blood Blade Princess, a fourth-level Super Emperor, was very powerful and could fight him head-on without armor. Li Changguo had previously estimated that the three of them and the demon could subdue the dragon together.
However, today's situation was beyond his expectations. He didn't know what kind of medicine the dragon had taken, but its combat power had expanded to this extent.

The Blood Knife Lady was only in the late fourth realm. Both her mental strength and physical fitness were far behind that of the sixth realm demon dragon. She did not have the Heavenly Demon Armor that he and the County Lieutenant Qin Xia possessed, so she could not help even if she came.

Li Changguo suddenly realized something and his eyes widened: "You used the demon's strengthening potion, is it Yuanji?"

Previously, Lin Shier brought back Yuan Ji’s demonized head, thereby confirming the identity of this Jinggang wealthy businessman as an extraterritorial demon.

After Yuanji became a demon, he mingled with the demon dragon's subordinates.

The dragon laughed loudly upon hearing this: "So what? So what? Anyway, you are all dead today—"

But at this moment, a lightning net suddenly opened in the sky, and a red shadow flashed behind the dragon. The blazing white blade light slashed down, instantly cutting a deep scar on the left rear side of the dragon's body, causing a large amount of blood to spurt out.

"what?"

The dragon raised its claws to grab, but found that the red figure was extremely swift and agile, and also mastered the Lightning Escape. It was constantly circling around it, dodging, and flashing, ready to strike as soon as it got the chance.

The sword light was extremely powerful. Although it could not seriously injure the dragon in one fell swoop, the scars it left could penetrate nearly five feet into the flesh, causing the dragon not only great pain but also rapid loss of energy and blood.

The dragon tried to catch the red shadow for more than twenty times but failed, and then became furious.

"Die!"

It swung its tail violently, like a whip, and smashed it towards the red shadow.

This time Ji Xueying was unable to completely avoid it, because when the long whip hit her, the surrounding void was squeezed and shattered layer by layer, making her escape method temporarily ineffective.

Ji Xueying could only be forced to hold her long sword Jingxue horizontally in front of her to block.

"Boom!"

Ji Xueying was blown away like a meteor and was smashed into the water by the dragon's tail whip.

Li Changguo and the county lieutenant Qin Xia both felt depressed.

They knew how powerful this evil dragon was. If the Blood Blade Princess was hit by its tail, her bones would probably be shattered!
But the next moment, they saw Blood Knife Lady rushing out of the river again, and continued to flash to the side of the magic dragon to fight with it, trying her best to restrain the magic dragon, which greatly reduced the pressure on the two of them.

Although blood was oozing from the corners of her lips, the demon's recovery ability was extremely terrifying, and she recovered in just a moment.

"Is this Cyborg?"

Li Changguo was surprised and couldn't help but shout loudly, "Okay!"

At this time, the Blood Blade Princess's combat power not only exceeded his expectations, but was more than twice as strong as the battle more than ten days ago. She even awakened the blood talent of "steel bones", and her bones were like fine steel!
Although Steel Bone is only a king-level talent, its actual effect is very powerful and practical, allowing Blood Blade Princess to have extremely strong resistance to attacks.

There is also a layer of golden light around the Blood Knife Princess, which should be a spell called "Golden Body of the Altar", which can greatly enhance the Blood Knife Princess's defense and strength.

Li Changguo's spirits suddenly lifted, and he thought that in this way, the outcome of the battle between them and the dragon today would be reversed!
Although that Defense Envoy Lin had made him lose face, he was quite helpful today.

The dragon also found that the situation was not good.

It was unable to focus all its strength on Li Changguo, and the annoying red shadow was continuing to bleed it.

"Are you the Blood Sword Princess?"

The dragon attacked Ji Xueying with its tail several times in a row.

This is its innate bloodline, which is extremely powerful but requires a huge consumption of blood and energy.

After the dragon tried several times but failed to kill the Blood Knife Lady, it roared and looked at the hill beside the river with its eyes wide open.

It saw the man standing on the top of the hill, wearing heavy armor and with his hands in seals.

That should be Ji Xueying’s master Lin Twelve.

"Shuzi!"

The evil dragon was filled with anger and resentment. It had already learned from its subordinates that Yuan Ji died at the hands of Lin Twelve.

Yuanji was the extraterritorial demon that it had found with great difficulty, and was the channel for purchasing demon potions, but it was destroyed by Lin Twelve.

This guy also killed several fifth-level demons under his command, greatly reducing the strength of his subordinates.

At that time, it had just been injected with the strengthening medicine provided by Yuanji, and its physical condition was not very stable, so it did not move much.

Today, this brat kept appearing in front of it, and he controlled the guardian demon to repeatedly seriously injure it.

The dragon suddenly roared wildly, shaking the wind and clouds within a few miles: "Go and kill him! Kill him for me!"

At this moment, hundreds of demons hiding underwater rushed towards the hill where Lin Rui was.

Li Changguo and Qin Xia's faces darkened again upon seeing this, both thinking that this evil dragon had really hit their vital points.
