C155 Death Is Certain
C155 Death Is Certain
Even Yang Jian and Huge Spirit God's expressions became serious.
Although they didn't know why General Hei Hu kept holding back just now, they were sure that the current General Hei Hu was even more terrifying than before!
Even if the two of them joined forces, they still wouldn't be able to stop him!
General Hei Hu let out a roar. Both of his feet stomped on the ground forcefully. His body moved as fast as lightning, lunging at Yang Jian and Huge Spirit God.
This time, General Hei Hu attacked without holding back, with the intent to kill.
The aura that was as powerful as a Mahāyāna Stage swept across the battlefield, forcing Yang Jian and Huge Spirit God to retreat continuously. Both of them had suffered different degrees of injuries.
"Bang!"
Huge Spirit God's huge body was once again knocked to the ground by General Hei Hu. He tried a few times but was unable to stand up again.
Yang Jian used the three-tip blade to support his body and stood in front of Lin Xiao. He looked like he was not afraid of death. "Master, you go first!"
"Go? No one can leave today!"
When General Hei Hu heard Yang Jian's words, he launched another attack. His sharp claws tore at Yang Jian's skin and flesh, looking extremely ferocious.
...
At the same time, in a building not far away, Third Prince was sitting on a soft couch, watching the battle as he drank his tea.
"Your Highness, Eunuch Cao is here."
At this moment, a servant walked in and reported. After Third Prince nodded his head to indicate that he was here, a servant walked in and reported. A smiling eunuch came in.
This eunuch was none other than the chief eunuch emperor trusted the most, Cao Gao.
Cao Gao glanced at Third Prince and reported in a sharp voice, "Third Prince, I have heard about it. His Majesty has given the order for General Hei Hu to cripple Lin Xiao in this competition!"
"Oh?"
Third Prince raised his eyebrows and looked at the battle below. He smiled and said, "I thought it would take some effort to kill Lin Xiao, but I didn't expect Imperial Brother to deal with him. I'm curious. At the beginning, who said that this kid was Imperial Brother's man? "
"Third Prince, forgive me!"
Hearing Third Prince's words, Cao Gao was so scared that he knelt down and explained. "emperor wholeheartedly protected this kid. I was also confused by his appearance, that's why I thought this kid was emperor's man. But now, it seemed like this kid wasn't emperor's man. "This is also a good thing for you, isn't it?"
Of course! "
Third Prince glanced at Cao Gao and said with a smile, "You don't need to panic. I just have some doubts, and I don't mean to blame you. Now, all we need to do is to watch a good show here! "
As he spoke, Third Prince's gaze fell on the battle outside.
Under General Hei Hu's all-out attack, Yang Jian could no longer hold on. The hand that was holding the three-tip blade was also trembling.
However, he still stood in front of Lin Xiao without backing off.
Looking at the tall back in front of him, Lin Xiao's eyes flashed with a touch of emotion. He took a deep breath and prepared to use the specific summoning.
He knew that once he used the specific summoning, Yang Jian's strength would definitely improve by leaps and bounds, and it would be no problem for him to surpass the Mahāyāna Stage!
At that time, there would be no one in the entire Beiwu Empire who could match him.
However, the danger that followed would become even more dangerous. It was very likely that those major powers outside the Beiwu Empire would target him because of this.
Initially, Lin Xiao didn't plan to use the specific summoning so early when he wasn't strong enough. However, the energy value was still a thousand points away from the next energy value he would summon, and he didn't have the chance to obtain it.
Under such circumstances, he had no other choice!
Just as Lin Xiao was about to use the specific summoning, two old men suddenly appeared in front of him and blocked General Hei Hu's attack.
"Someone from the Hall of Nine?"
General Hei Hu's facial expression changed when he saw these two old men. He frowned and scolded, "Is your Hall of Nine crazy?! How dare you interfere in the matters of the Imperial Court?!"
"We naturally won't interfere in other matters, but this kid is someone our Hall of Nine wants to protect. Even the Imperial Court can't kill him!"
When the two old men heard General Hei Hu's words, they spoke righteously.
Hall of Nine?
It was the Hall of Nine again!
When he was in the Jiangcuo County, it was the Branch Division Elder from the Hall of Nine that saved his life from Ge Qianqiu in the Taiwu Mountain. Now, in the Imperial City, the people of the Hall of Nine's main hall had rescued him once again. What exactly did the Hall of Nine want from him?
Lin Xiao was puzzled.
But he understood that this wasn't the time to think about these things.
General Hei Hu was obviously afraid of these two Hall of Nines from the Hall of Nine. He must seize this opportunity to seek protection from the Hall of Nine.
Thinking of this, Lin Xiao said, "Two Elder, this tiger keeps saying that he wants to kill me. You can't let him go!"
"You!"
General Hei Hu didn't expect Lin Xiao to be so shameless. His tiger eyes were full of anger.
Although he had the strength of a Mahāyāna Stage in the form of a black tiger, it wouldn't last for long. The battle with Huge Spirit God and Yang Jian had consumed a lot of his spiritual energy, and these two Hall of Nines from the Hall of Nine were both tribulation crossing Peak. If he continued to fight them head on, he was afraid that he would end up in a disadvantageous position.
However, this was an order from His Majesty, and even if he died, he couldn't disobey it.
With this thought in mind, General Hei Hu let out a roar and shouted, "So what if you're a member of Hall of Nine? Today, I must kill Lin Xiao!"
After saying that, General Hei Hu and the two Elder from the Hall of Nine started fighting once again.
Yang Jian and Huge Spirit God retreated to the side and consumed the Earth level 'Restoration Pill' given by Lin Xiao to recover from their injuries.
Seeing the changes below, Third Prince's brows furrowed tightly. A terrifying and oppressive aura was emitting from his body, causing Cao Gao to not even dare to breathe loudly.
"Damn it!"
Third Prince cursed. Third Prince slapped the tea table hard, breaking it into pieces. Cao Gao was so scared that he fell to the ground.
Seeing Cao Gao so scared that his lips had turned purple, Third Prince withdrew his aura. His subordinate ordered: "Immediately investigate the relationship between Lin Xiao and Hall of Nine!"
"Yes!"
The subordinate who was hiding in the dark immediately received the order and left.
Only then did Cao Gao stand up shakily, revealing an extremely ugly smile. He said, "I don't know about the relationship between the Hall of Nine and Lin Xiao, but this morning, there was a change in the Heaven's Pride Rank."
"Oh?"
Third Prince glanced at Cao Gao and asked, "What happened to the Heaven's Pride Rank? Don't tell me it has something to do with Lin Xiao!"
As a Third Prince from the Beiwu Empire, he naturally wouldn't pay attention to a tiny Heaven's Pride Rank. After all, no matter how talented he was, the Heaven's Pride Rank was only a Spirit Separating Stage weakling.
However, there must be something unusual about Cao Gao mentioning it at this time.
