Time Travel: I'm a Flower Thief

The gray figure landed and stood firm in front of the formation.

It was Qin Huaiyu, the most favored eunuch by the Emperor of Dasheng.

Qin Huaiyu stared coldly at Xie Xiaoyi: "Xie Xiaoyi, you think you can just barge into the Forbidden City like that? Today, I'll make sure you don't leave alive!"

Xie Xiaoyi sneered, "Who do we have here? It's just another defeated opponent."

"How dare you! Take this punch!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Huaiyu stomped his feet and lunged forward, clenching his right fist and slamming it towards Xie Xiaoyi's chest.

The opponent is now at the Unity of Heaven and Man realm, so Qin Huaiyu dares not be careless. His Heavenly Gang Qi Armor has already covered his entire body.

Xie Xiaoyi didn't reply, and simply waved his hand.

There was a "hiss" sound.

An invisible burst of energy shot out from his sleeve, lightly brushing against Qin Huaiyu's Heavenly Gang Qi Armor.

Then there was a loud "poof!"

The protective aura armor deflated instantly, like a punctured balloon, scattering and shattering in all directions.

Qin Huaiyu let out a muffled groan, and his whole body was swept away as if by a whirlwind, flying straight backward.

When a person is in mid-air, they are not in control of their own destiny.

He endured the excruciating pain and hurriedly circulated his inner energy again, condensing another layer of Heavenly Gang Qi Armor to protect his entire body.

"boom--!"

The next moment, his back slammed violently against the city wall behind him.

The wall was instantly smashed, leaving a deep dent. Bricks and stones shattered and scattered, with rubble falling down with a crackling sound.

Although Qin Huaiyu was not seriously injured thanks to the protective armor, the shock caused his blood and qi to surge, leaving him scrambling and stuck in the dented hole in the wall.

His eyes widened—

Is this the power of the Unity of Heaven and Man realm?

That's incredibly powerful!

Xie Xiaoyi... he just casually flicked his sleeve, and he was able to break through the Heavenly Gang Protection...

Just as Yu Shinan said, the unity of heaven and man is something that ordinary people cannot compare to.

"My turn!"

Xie Xiaoyi raised his foot and charged forward, instantly unleashing a surge of killing intent on the battlefield.

Lu Wushuang and the five generals had suffered at his hands before in the forbidden area of ​​the Imperial Ancestral Temple. Seeing him about to charge, they quickly gave orders:

"Balloon—fire!"

"Repeating crossbows—fire!"

"Catapult—fire!"

A series of deep shouts rang out, and the orders quickly spread across the front lines.

In an instant, dozens of ballistae simultaneously tightened their bowstrings, and iron arrows as thick as an arm shot out of the barrel with a "whoosh".

Lu Wushuang's lips curled slightly—

snort!

The iron arrows fired by this crossbow are different from those fired by a powerful bow or crossbow.

Its power is so domineering that even a ninth-grade Vajra Saint Realm expert would have no chance of stopping it.

The power of this iron arrow piercing the air was in no way inferior to the deadly sword energy of a top expert; those struck by it would either die or be seriously injured.

Even if you are a top expert, how many of these ballistae can you withstand if they are fired at you?

At this moment, the repeating crossbow carts on both sides fired simultaneously, and the bolts in the quiver poured out like a torrential rain.

The fuses of the catapults behind were also lit, and the grease-coated stone balls swung up with a "whoosh" and hurled at Xie Xiaoyi.

Each stone ball weighs around 100 pounds, and combined with the principle of levers, the force of each ball is more than 1,000 pounds.

Faced with countless giant crossbow stones, Xie Xiaoyi once again waved his sleeve and first swung his wrist hard into the air.

"Order it for me—!!"

With a single swing, all the incoming crossbow bolts, ballistae, iron arrows, and pebbles were instantly frozen in mid-air.

It's as if time and space have been frozen, unable to move at all, just hanging there, accumulating more and more.

In the blink of an eye, they were densely packed together.

Before anyone could react, Xie Xiaoyi swiftly flicked his sleeve a second time.

Then there was a series of loud "bangs" and "cracks".

Arrows and pebbles were all ground to powder in mid-air, scattered by the wind, posing no threat whatsoever...

With a flick of the sleeve, the crossbow is fixed; with two sleeves, the breeze dissipates into nothingness.

The soldiers were terrified when they saw this.

Today's spectacle is quite impressive, with the Imperial Guards, Qi Refiners, and even the top eunuch of the dynasty, Chief Steward Qin, all mobilized, yet they're only using them to deal with one person.

At first, they felt it was a waste of talent...

Now that we see them, we realize that what they're dealing with isn't a person at all, but a monster—it's absolutely terrifying.

Over here, Lü Wushuang, alarmed, shouted sharply, "Quickly! Second round—"

But before he could finish speaking, Xie Xiaoyi had vanished from his sight.

With a sharp whooshing sound, Xie Xiaoyi transformed into a streak of dark light and charged straight toward the center of the Imperial Guard formation!

At that moment, two figures soared into the sky simultaneously, one in green and one in gray, one in front and one behind, fiercely meeting the attack.

"boom--!!"

The three streaks of light collided with a bang, and the shockwaves exploded instantly.

Xie Xiaoyi paused slightly in his steps.

The two men simultaneously groaned, thrown backward by the shock, their feet scraping the ground and smoking before finally coming to a stop.

Xie Xiaoyi stood firmly in place, his gaze sweeping over the two people.

The man in blue robes held the Listening Wind Blade, his aura chilling; he was none other than Wang Shaobo, the Listening Wind King of the Northern Film Studio.

The man in gray was Qin Huaiyu, who had been shaken into the dent of the city wall earlier.

The two realized that the time was not right and they could not let Xie Xiaoyi break through the defense, so they joined forces to intercept him.

Qin Huaiyu wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his face serious—

It seems that even two people at the Sun-Radiant Realm are no match for this person, and it would be difficult to even make him retreat a step.

Wang Shaobo suppressed the surging blood and qi within him, his heart filled with even greater horror—

Is this the state of harmony between man and nature?

No wonder he sent Eunuch Qin Huaiyu flying with just one move...

Indeed, one cannot judge it with the eyes of an ordinary person.

Three years ago, Xie Xiaoyi was still his defeated opponent, but now... he is no match for him.

Ugh......

Wang Shaobo listened intently, knowing that the group of alchemists had already taken their positions and were ready to deploy their formation at a single command.

He originally disdained to use Yu Shinan's schemes, but seeing the current situation, he realized that he couldn't stop them without using them.

He immediately said, "Xie Xiaoyi, I admit you are very strong, but you are now fighting against the Heavenly Dao..."

Xie Xiaoyi curled his lip and sneered, "So what if it's the way of Heaven? Even if it blocks my way, I'll still step over it."

No sooner had he finished speaking than a figure appeared on the city wall—it was Yu Shinan.

He roared, "You rude brat!"

"Set up the formation—"

At a single command, dozens of figures rose up simultaneously from all directions outside the city.

Ninety-nine Qi Refiners sped out from both sides of the official road, high ground, and slopes in nine directions, surrounding Xie Xiaoyi in the center from afar.

Everyone made hand seals and focused their minds, and spiritual energy intertwined, forming a large array that covered an area of ​​several miles in an instant.

Yu Shinan stood atop the city wall, coldly observing the people in the formation:

"Xie Xiaoyi, even if you are at the Celestial Realm, your cultivation level will be suppressed within this killing formation today!"

What the hell!

Is that so arrogant?

Xie Xiaoyi looked up at the city wall, not recognizing the old man, and asked, "And who are you?"

"Director of the Imperial Observatory, Yu Shinan..."
