Lord Xue Ying's

Chapter 43 – Absolute Killing Array!

At the turn of the seventh aisle, there were three guards waiting with their weapons drawn.

"They're here." One of the guards said in a low voice.

The sound of an explosion could be heard from outside as the ground shook.

The shortest guardian went to the spy hole to check the situation ahead. He saw two giant frozen snakes crawling across, their bodies whipping the walls of the hall. Sometimes, the walls would collapse. Sometimes, the floor will break.

"Both frozen snakes are cruel. Of these many arrangements, none of them survived the snake attack. Fortunately, the impact caused by the snake on the array formation in the seventh corridor was the weakest, ”the shortest guardian whisper. Formation arrays can be classified into many levels, and not all of them can be easily destroyed by frozen snakes.

"Ready-prepared. We will activate the trap once they enter the seventh aisle, ” said the supreme guardian.

“They are coming towards us. Wait for my signal, ”answer the short one while closely observing Xue Ying and the other experts.

……

When the five experts followed behind the two snakes, they had yet to find out where Lu Huai Ru was. Due to the octagonal shape of the castle, there were actually eight Great Halls that they had to clear.

Right at this moment, they were heading towards the turn of one of the Great Hall.

Si Bai Rong and the black-haired Liang Yong walked in front, with Jing Qiu and his staff behind them. He was already wearing Frost armor on himself in preparation for an unexpected event.

Xue Ying and Tang Xiong were behind him, on the left and right sides of Jing Qiu respectively.

"The space in this castle is actually this big. Where exactly did Lu Huai Ru hide herself? ”Bai Rong asked impatiently.

"Don't be in a hurry."

“We have checked every place in the inner room. As of now, we have inspected the six Great Halls. There were only two Halls left, with this being the seventh. If we still haven't found Lu Huai Ru once all of the eight Great Hall of the inner rooms have been thoroughly investigated, then the next location he might hide is under the castle. With the Dragon Mountain flying ship outside, and us inside, there is no way he can escape! ”

"En." Bai Rong nodded.

"Rumble ~" Suddenly, a vibration could be felt coming from the turning point to the seventh Great Hall. The ground seemed to break apart, revealing a huge hole beneath it. Inside the hole, many sharp, upward-facing spears could be seen! Worse, the spearhead had clearly been treated with poison. Without any hesitation, Xue Ying and the others dodged the hole that had emerged from the gap widening on the ground. Fortunately, the two frozen snakes had destroyed most of the ground before, causing some parts of the array to stop functioning and preventing the ground from opening any further.

Thus, with just a little effort, Xue Ying and the other experts were able to easily dodge the activated traps.

"Rumble —-" The wall around the experts suddenly shattered. Many rocks fell to the ground, revealing many mechanical bows hidden behind.

The mechanical roar of the turning gears can be heard.

Countless arrows faced the experts, each as big as one's thigh. Seeing the situation, Bai Rong, Tang Xiong, Jing Qiu and the others grimaced. Thick arrows like ...

"Not good!" Jing Qiu's face paled instantly. Looking at the mechanical arcs, the mechanical gears controlling them were actually moving slowly, due to the debris from before. The snakes smashed against the wall and the ground it was a good thing, but now, instead of preventing the bow arrows from firing, the debris was actually aiding the bow arrows in gathering power. The longer the time, the stronger the arrows would be released.

"Four corners! Everyone takes one! ”The two experienced Tang Xiong and Liang Yong shouted. They know that they have entered a life or death situation.

The peng! The peng! The peng! The peng! The peng!

The jolting effect brought about by the shooting arc was palpable. Arrows were shot from every direction, from the front, back and even side. With Xue Ying and the others right in the middle of the hall, the maximum distance between them and the bow was only several tens of meters. The nearest arrow was only 10 meters away!

Hu hu hu hu ...

The arrow rips the wind!

Within moments, hundreds of thick bolts filled the entire passageway!

Luckily this mechanical bow is controlled by its mechanical arrangement and gears. Because of that, the number of arrows that were actually heading towards Xue Ying and the five experts were at most ten per person.

"Defend!"

"Everyone defends you well!"

Tang Xiong and Liang Yong both shouted.

"Penet!" With a shield and sword in his hand, the black-haired Liang Yong blocked one of the arrows heading towards him. At the same time he tilted the shield slightly, thus reducing its impact. With just one fight, 8 or 9 arrows were successfully avoided! However, even though he greatly reduced the impact of the arrow attacks through his shield, their strength was still great. Had he not had a shield to aid his defense, even wearing a harness could not have saved his life from the power of 2 or 3 thick arrowheads.

"Dang dang dang!" The hundred and sixty-year-old Tang Xiong blocked the entire flake of the arrow towards his path with just the help of a short sword. What an experienced parent!

"Damn it!" The Silver Moon Knight Si Bai Rong tried his best with the two-handed Great Sword in his hand in defending against the incoming arrow. He was having a hard time compared to the other two parents.

Dang dang dang !!!

Arrows came flying towards him one by one. Although as a Silver Moon Knight, Bai Rong could compensate for the speed of the arrow with the help of his good physique, fast reaction time, and quick movements. However, he spent a lot of energy to defend himself due to the lack of deep understanding in sword arts.

Knight rank did not determine how effective one was in combat.

In fact, to become a Silver Moon Knight, one could purely increase the Dou Qi in his body to reach this level. However, the skill of a person with a great sword depended on several other factors. Although Bai Rong spent most of his time training against the experts of the Si Clan, he was still a long way from reaching 'One with the Sword ”. At best, his foundation was relatively strong. He fighting against ordinary Knights would not be a problem. But today? In this life or death situation, with a swift arrow approaching him, he could only rely on his instincts and reflexes.

"No!" Bai Rong's forehead was filled with cold sweat. Suddenly, he fumbled.

"Hu–" Right at this critical moment, a shield came towards him, fending off the thick arrow.

That's Bai Rong's guardian, Liang Yong.

During his entire struggle against arrows, Liang Yong was actually looking for Bai Rong. After all, the reason why he took part in this mission was to protect the young master. However, the arrow that entered was too fast. With his skill, he could barely protect himself, how could he even have the strength to protect others? As a result of extending a helping hand, he stumbled and lost momentum in defending against the arrow. The arrow that came right into his face was not deflected completely. Peng peng! With a sword in his hand, he barely managed to dodge the two arrows. But the third ...?

A thick arrow ripped through his right arm.

Hu ...

Not long after, the bow finally stopped shooting.

From the beginning, only a few seconds passed.

"Bec ... Facing such a terrifying weapon at close range, this Liang Yong did not even put it in his heart to protect himself. Moreover, he dared to distract her to help his young master, Bai Rong. It was his luck that he did not die from this encounter. "Tang Xiong sighed to himself.

“Old Jiang! Old Liang! "Bai Rong ran towards him, carrying the black-haired guardian in his hands. The wound on Liang Yong's right arm continued to spit out blood. Without hesitation, Liang Yong took the silk cloth from his belongings and tied it to the wound to stop the blood from flowing out.

"I'm doing fine. It was just the right arm, ” said Liang Yong. His character was not loyalty and loyalty towards the Si Clan. It was just that he was raised by the Si Clan, with his own Clan relying on the Si Clan to survive. If Bai Rong were to die during this mission, then without a doubt, there would be dire consequences.

“Xue Ying this is actually quite formidable. I had to exert my entire effort to defend against the arrows, yet Xue Ying was able to easily fend off all the arrows without much effort. ”Tang Xiong glanced at Xue Ying. Just now, he had actually concentrated on defending himself against the arrows, and thus had no chance to see what technique Xue Ying was using. But look at his calm and steady attitude ...

"Hugely regrettable…"

Xue Ying shook his head. Although he was hostile towards Bai Rong, he had no complaints against the black-haired Liang Yong. If given the chance, he would help, but unfortunately he was behind the team, quite far away from Liang Yong. Of course, it was not to say that he was unable to reach Liang Yong in time, just that Jing Qiu had a higher priority.

Jing Qiu was located right in the middle of the group. Moreover, as a magician, he could do nothing against this encounter with arrowheads.

"Be careful!" Jing Qiu suddenly exclaimed. He is seeking further danger.

The Sou Sou Sou!

Three shadows appeared from behind the bow. Looking at their speed, at least they had the strength of Silver Moon Knights. In an instant, they had already covered the distance between them and Xue Ying's group.

"Search!"

"Liang Yong!" Tang Xiong shouted.

"Young master!" Liang Yong shouted. Using the shield in his hand, he defended himself and Bai Rong against the ambush of the two guards. Clearly, based on the previous actions, the guards knew that the weakest among the experts was ... Bai Rong's. And now, with the injuries inflicted by the black-haired old man, both of them were the easiest to deal with.

As for the third guardian, he charged into mage Jing Qiu.

"Stop!" Tang Xiong's orders. With a short sword, he faced the third guardian.

Xue Ying, behind the group, also brandished his long spear and went towards the enemy.

……

"Young master, let's work together." Guardian Liang Yong was ready to withstand the attack with a shield held by his only arm.

Bai Rong instantly turned pale. He used the two-handed Great Sword to fight against one of the guardians, but the guardian was extremely fast. With a slight movement, he dodged the attack. Comparing techniques, one could easily tell that this guardian was superior. Thus, what Bai Rong did was something that no one expected. He left the guardian and stopped caring about what Jing Qiu thought of him. He decided to retreat.

He ran, running to the back of the group, hoping others would protect him from the enemy.

In fact, if Bai Rong were to guard his wits, defending against the enemy with Liang Yong, they would definitely be able to prolong the battle. At that time, Xue Ying would reach their location and help resolve the situation.

Yet Bai Rong only cared about his own life. The decision is to retreat! The guardian who was chasing Bai Rong changed the target, slashing at Liang Yong.

Liang Yong was already having a hard time defending himself against one of the guardians, the guardian with only a shield in his hand. When he was attacked by a brace by two guardian enemies, he could not hold on anymore.

"Po!" A sword came flying from his back, slashing his throat. Spreading his eyes, Liang Yong did not give up on death. Within those eyes was a glimmer of hope, a hope that even though he had died in battle, the Si Clan would still be able to provide a place for his own grandson to live.

Falling onto the floor, guardian Liang Yong died!

This was the first death in the group of five experts.

The battle between the Silver Moon Knights was indeed very fast.

If one were to talk about how fast a sword could be, in one second, over a hundred slashes would be dealt by the Silver Moon Knight! As for why this battle ended so quickly, one of the reasons was the fact that Bai Rong had actually escaped. With the attacks of two experienced knights, Liang Yong could only defend himself against one or two moves before succumbing to his death.

Hu Hu Hu

Two shadows could be seen flying across space as snow floated along the way.

Pu's! Pu's!

The two guards who had just killed Liang Yong had no chance to react. They were instantly stabbed through their throats by the spear. Their eyes were wide open and full of astonishment.

"Y ... You ... You ..." None of them can believe it. The spear came too fast.

With one move, two people were killed.

In fact, the technique Xue Ying practiced was senior Gu Yuan Han's Dark Ice Spear Technique. This technique is specialized in speed. Back when he was a Meteor Knight, he had already utilized the speed brought by the Dark Ice Spear Technique to kill a rank 5 Shadow Leopard! Only with a casual move could he put forward the strength of the Silver Moon Knight. The speed brought by Xue Ying could easily be used to kill both guards, given his understanding of the Profound realm Spear Technique, coupled with the Transcendent technique.

Other than himself, Xue Ying had never met someone who had reached the Great Spear Mastery realm. After all, reaching such a stage was not an easy matter.

Those who could be as diligent as Xue Ying, spending hours of training every day were very few in number. Even his father and Zong Ling could not keep up with the routine. Even so, one must also be shrewd, not only diligent, to achieve great achievements. Xue Ying was someone who could think fast and adjust his training routine based on the Trascendent technique. After the many trials and mistakes he had experienced, Xue Ying finally reached the status of 'One with the Spear', entering the Great Spear Masters realm.

Just by using medicinal baths, demon training routines, Transcendent techniques, a castle filled with warriors to fight and an intelligent brain so that one could achieve such an achievement. Xue Ying was a good person who could achieve it!
