Hunting Cards! Star Dragon
Page 172
Noa subconsciously wanted to draw out the two swords behind her to block, but Huang's sickle was too fast. It didn't seem like the speed of a heavy weapon at all, but more like a light sword that had no weight at all.
It was too late to dodge or block.
Clang——!
The irons clashed and collided.
Xingjian held the Stardust Sword on his waist, with the blade and scabbard horizontally in front of Noa, just blocking the intersection between the sickle and the handle, and urgently stopping Huang's attack.
Even so, the sharp blade that was almost touching Noah's forehead still cut off a few strands of the girl's light blue bangs.
But the attack was ultimately blocked by Xingjian.
Seeing that the second princess was fine, all the staff, nobles and wealthy businessmen present breathed a sigh of relief.
The person in charge of the venue today was so scared that he peed his pants, and the ground below was wet.
If something happens to the Imperial Princess in the Dragon Fighting Arena, I'm afraid everyone present will be blamed and affected.
After the lightning-fast confrontation, the air was still and silent for a few seconds, and no one dared to speak first.
What followed was a scream of terror, breaking the silence.
Noy screamed and quickly ran behind Huang and grabbed his arm tightly.
"What are you doing, Miss Huang? I didn't ask you to do this. Don't act on your own. What if my sister gets hurt?!"
Although she was not the one attacked, this girl acted even more panicked and frightened than Noah.
Huang turned his dark eyes to Noy: "Oh? Didn't you always say that you hate your sister?"
"This, this is different." A touch of embarrassment flashed across Noy's face. "In any case, you can't attack the imperial sister. There will be trouble, big trouble!"
"It won't be a problem." Huang retracted the scythe he had swung. "I just wanted to test it out. I haven't seen Xing for a long time. I wonder if her skills have deteriorated. Since she can block my blow, she barely passes."
Noah was completely speechless.
You want to test Xingjian's skills, then why are you attacking me? Go attack him!
As the person involved, Noah saw through Huang's lies at the first moment.
Test your skills?
It might be possible to fool other onlookers, but it couldn't fool Noah who felt Huang's sword attack up close.
Noah could clearly feel the hostility, no, it should be said that the murderous intent, in Huang's heart when he swung the knife just now was genuine.
If Xing Jian hadn't blocked the knife for him, he would most likely be dead now.
The crisis of life hanging by a thread made Noah, who was tortured by sexual desire to the point of confusion, wake up instantly.
It was the first time that Huang and I met, but this woman actually had such great hostility towards me, even murderous intentions.
He even did not hesitate to attack the Snow Tiger royal family in public.
That was a reckless act for which even several lives would not be enough to compensate.
After waking up, Noah thought quickly and guessed the answer.
This guy definitely has a special relationship with Xingjian!
Otherwise, why would he choose to attack just because he saw that he had a closer relationship with Xingjian?
"No trouble?" Noah sneered. "No, you are in trouble now. Do you know where this is?"
Noah didn't need to give any additional instructions. The arena guards who reacted quickly surrounded them.
"Oh, you want to fight?" Huang's cold eyes swept over the guards around him who were wearing heavy armor.
Although they are just thugs hired by the arena, these guards are equipped with the most advanced weapons and equipment, and their combat effectiveness is also one in a hundred, which is more than enough to maintain order in the arena.
But in front of Huang, it is obvious that no matter how many of these small fish there are, they are not enough.
The guards clenched their weapons tightly, sweating profusely.
The guards on duty had all seen the terrifying scene of the black girl killing a monster with one sword.
Since she can kill a monster with one sword, she may be able to kill herself with one sword.
"It's a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding, sister!" Noy hurried forward to dissuade her.
"Noi, shut up."
"it is good……"
How could Noah not know if it was a misunderstanding?
This guy really wants to take his own life.
This made Noah feel a great sense of crisis about Huang's existence.
This sense of crisis includes the crisis to his own safety, as well as the crisis to the unknown relationship between Huang and Xingjian.
Noah could see that Xingjian's attitude towards Huang was not friendly, but Huang was different.
Even on the surface, the girl, who had the same expressionless face as Xingjian, showed no emotional fluctuations.
But Noah's intuition as a woman allowed her to sense the clues.
Therefore, if you want to eliminate this sense of crisis, the most appropriate way at present is naturally -
"Catch him."
Noah is the princess of the empire, and in order to maintain her identity as the princess of the empire, Noah usually makes a lot of concessions to the Snow Tiger Queen.
The purpose is to be able to use this identity power without hesitation when the time comes.
Power is also a part of one's own strength.
The second princess Noa would never refuse to use this power.
The Dragon Fighting Arena is the underground industry of the Snow Tiger Empire, and the royal family's voice is extremely important in the arena.
Even though the guards were trembling with fear, they had to go ahead under Noah's orders.
Of course, Noah didn't expect that these evil thugs hired by the underground forces could defeat Huang.
She only needed to wait for Huang to strike back. The moment she resisted, she would be on the opposite side of the entire Dragon Fighting Arena. The vast underground forces hidden in Granna would definitely not let her go easily.
Noah never thought that one day she would have to use the same method as her mother to deal with the "enemy".
Of course, unlike Queen Hina, this time Noah entered the game with her own life threatened by the other party.
"If you want to fight, fight."
Huang once again grasped the hilt of the knife behind him with one hand.
"But Second Princess, I won't hold back this time."
She simply ignored the small guards around her, and the huge murderous intent that erupted from the girl Huang's body was directly locked onto Noah without any restraint or concealment this time.
"Ghost Dragon Armor!" Noah's armed mode is activated, and a special light armor with ghost horns covers her entire body.
Noah hid under Xingjian's protection because she was attacked by Huang unexpectedly.
And with Noah's strong personality, how could she possibly allow Xingjian to protect her all the time?
"Noa..."
This time, Xingjian tried to stop her but failed. Noah, who had activated the armed form, rushed towards Huang at full speed.
Sparks flew in the continuous clash, and the two men slashed at such a fast speed that the surrounding guards were unable to intervene.
However, after the actual fight, Noah was completely scared.
The black girl in front of him had a strength that could not be described as bottomless.
She didn't even use the armament card, and fought purely with her body, suppressing her own Ghost Dragon Twin Swords.
During the confrontation, Huang spoke softly, seemingly not taking Noah's attack seriously at all: "You are not worthy, Second Princess."
"what?"
"You don't deserve to be next to Xing."
Huang's small jade feet wrapped in black sandals kicked back, but were accurately blocked by the two swords, but Noa seemed to have been kicked by a dragon.
It is a move that Xingjian also often uses.
The powerful impact of the dragon car caused Noa to be catapulted backwards and was eventually caught by Xingjian.
"Oh no, Xingjian saw me making such an embarrassing scene." Noah thought to herself that this was not good.
When Huang saw this scene, a fleeting flash of anger appeared in his eyes, and then he returned to indifference.
Seeing the second princess being kicked away, the guards who were watching did not dare to neglect her anymore and rushed forward.
“Everyone, stop—!”
At the back of the arena, a deep and powerful roar resounded, shocking all the guards from moving forward and also stopping Huang's hand that was about to swing his knife to cut down the enemy.
"Master, master!" The person in charge of the arena, who had already peed his pants just now, peed again.
The true master of the Dragon Fighting Arena—Grand Duke Flame Wolf.
A founding hero of the Snow Tiger Empire, he is a famous legendary figure whose records are recorded in the history books of various countries.
"Uncle Wolf?" Noah and Noy said in unison.
According to historical records, Grand Duke Yanlang should have passed away a hundred years ago.
But in fact, the high-ranking nobles of the Snow Tiger Empire, including the royal family, all knew that it was just a covert means for Grand Duke Yanlang to transfer his power underground.
As Gran's largest underground black industry, the Dragon Fighting Arena is so secretive that not only are all entrances and exits destroyed, but even the actual controller is a Grand Duke who "died" in history.
Although historical records show that he died a hundred years ago.
But the image of Grand Duke Yanlang at this time was not even that of an old man.
A tall, strong middle-aged man with short red hair that looked like an inverted flame.
A powerful human who has survived for more than a hundred years can make people feel extremely oppressed just by standing in the center of the arena.
Duke Yanlang looked at Noah, who was being helped up by Xingjian, and said, "Niece Noah, please give your uncle some face and calm down. I once held you in my arms when you were a child."
Although he looks serious, fierce and meticulous, he speaks in a surprisingly calm manner.
Just like a distant relative in the family, the classic approach of saying "I held you in my arms when you were a child" is used.
Noah said dissatisfiedly: "Uncle Wolf, your niece was almost killed. Do you think this matter can be let go?"
With his deep brows furrowed, Grand Duke Yanlang looked at Huang who was surrounded by guards.
"Miss Huang, a strong person like you shouldn't do such an impulsive thing. Did we fail to treat you well enough? I'm sure you know that making an enemy of the entire Dragon Fighting Arena is not a wise choice."
First courtesy, then force. The progressive logic in Grand Duke Yanlang's words makes it clear that he is a seasoned man.
"I said it was a test, but she didn't believe it." Huang repeated his original excuse.
Indeed, Huang hadn't come here to cause trouble today. The attack on Noah was an unexpected incident. If the first strike failed, continuing to pester her would only cause her trouble.
Moreover, today's auction at the Dragon Fight Arena was very important to Huang. He seemed too impulsive to mess up his own good fortune.
Grand Duke Yanlang said, "Miss Huang is new here and probably doesn't understand the etiquette of the nobility. In the future, please try not to make such dangerous attempts. Alternatively, if Miss Huang wants to spar with someone, she can find me."
"You?" Huang looked him up and down before putting away his giant sickle. "You are indeed stronger than the Second Princess, but you are nowhere near strong enough for me to fight you. I'm not interested."
The moment Huang Hei restrained his murderous intent, even the Grand Duke felt a chill running down his spine, causing a drop of cold sweat to form.
"Haha, young people all have tempers. It's normal, very normal." Seeing Huang put away his sickle, Grand Duke Yanlang looked at Noah again and said, "Niece Noah, it's true that I didn't treat you well today. So as compensation, you can take whatever you want from the items in today's auction. You don't have to pay."
The conditions proposed by the Master of Keeping Balance to settle the matter peacefully moved Noah.
The main reason was that the items at today's auction included the cards Hoshimi wanted and the Black Dragon materials, which were crucial for Hoshimi's Divine Beast Armament. Otherwise, Noa wouldn't have been bribed by simple benefits.
"Okay, I want the [Skill Extraction] card and [Black Dragon's Claws]. Just give them to me for free." Noa made the request without hesitation.
"No problem, as long as Niece Noah wants..."
"No." Huang interrupted, "That's what I want too. Noi, you won't go back on your word about the deal we made, right?"
Nuoyi had previously promised Huang that if she could break the Dragon Fighting Arena's consecutive hunting record, he would help her acquire two items at today's auction. This was a deal they had agreed upon in advance.
I didn’t expect that the two things Xingjian wanted were completely the same.
This put Grand Duke Yanlang in a difficult position. After all, Noi was also a princess, and it suddenly became difficult for him to handle this matter.
