A smile touched Yang Luofeng’s lips as he walked straight towards Third Princess Xiaoo Ying’Er. "Your Highness the Third Princess, during my recent expedition to the Sealing Demon Mountain Range, I have thoroughly investigated the demon army situation. All the intelligence is recorded in the booklet in my hand!" As he spoke, he drew closer to Third Princess Xiaoo Ying’Er.
All the Martial Cultivators present, including Grand Elder Ouyang Qinglan of the Profound Phoenix Celestial Sect at Eighth-Layer Perfection and Jia Yu of the Holy Dragon Association at Late Eighth Layer, did not doubt him. They stood up one after another, looking at the booklet in Yang Luofeng’s hand.
Other Martial Cultivators showed envy in their eyes. If Yang Luofeng had indeed fully investigated the intelligence, he would be able to obtain three Thick Earth Treasure Elixirs this ti!
Yang Luofeng smiled, drawing increasingly closer. He was just four zhang away from reaching Third Princess Xiaoo Ying’Er’s table!
Just at that mont,
CRACKLE! CRACKLE! CRACKLE! CRACKLE! CRACKLE!
A piercing sound of spreading thunder and lightning filled the air. An imnse amount of extrely bright lightning surged towards Yang Luofeng, enveloping his body in an instant.
Even though Yang Luofeng’s physical strength was extrely high, he still staggered for a mont when struck by the sudden lightning, his long hair standing on end.
Yang Luofeng’s expression twitched. He turned his lightning-covered face to look at Lin Xuankong, who was unleashing the Divine Thunder Illusion.
Lin Xuankong’s face was icy cold. General Yang Luofeng had already self-destructed and perished on the outskirts of the Sealing Demon Mountain Range; how could this Yang Luofeng be the real one! Moreover, as soon as this person arrived, he headed straight for Third Princess Xiaoo Ying’Er, clearly targeting her... Whether he was human or demon, Third Princess Xiaoo Ying’Er treated very well; how could I possibly allow danger to approach her!
This sudden turn of events at the banquet made the hundreds of powerhouses present freeze in surprise, so looking in astonishnt at Lin Xuankong, the source of the lightning.
Even Third Princess Xiaoo Ying’Er, ’Yang Luofeng’s’ target, showed bewildernt on her beautiful face.
Hua Yanluo, standing beside Third Princess Xiaoo Ying’Er’s table, paled and shouted in a low voice, "Lin Xuankong, you audacious maniac! You are too reckless! This is the Third Princess’s birthday banquet, yet you dare to randomly attack others? And you’re attacking General Yang, who is investigating demon intelligence! Lin Xuankong, stop imdiately!"
The surrounding Cultivators also shook their heads continuously, whispering among themselves.
"Who is Lin Xuankong? Which Cultivator is this? Drank too much?"
"Causing trouble at the Third Princess’s banquet? He must have a death wish!"
"He’s incredibly bold! The Third Princess’s banquet is not a place for recklessness!"
Sect Leader Jiang of the Yin Talisman Sect turned pale at the scene. He rushed to Lin Xuankong and grabbed his arm that was unleashing the lightning. "Xuankong, stop quickly! General Yang’s power is not sothing you can attack recklessly! If it weren’t for this being the Princess’s banquet, a casual Dust Explosion Technique from General Yang would likely blast all of us from the Yin Talisman Sect to death!"
If Jiang Haiyan hadn’t rembered Lin Xuankong was the sect’s genius, he would have been reluctant to strike him. If it were his own daughter Jiang Yuran acting so recklessly, he probably would have crippled her with a single palm strike by now.
Chief Steward Jiang Yuran, Grand Chief Steward Wu Liangye, and others were equally stunned. A Third-Layer Steward Lin attacking an Eighth-Layer General Yang? Has Steward Lin gone mad? The Yin Talisman Sect is in for a terrible misfortune!
"General Yang?" Seeing ’Yang Luofeng’ stop, Lin Xuankong halted his lightning attack, his face chilling. "General Yang is a Tier Eight Powerhouse; True Qi would instantly protect his body when attacked! After I attacked him, not a trace of True Qi appeared. How could he be Yang..."
SWISH! SWISH! SWISH!
The sound of sothing tearing through the air interrupted Lin Xuankong’s words.
’Yang Luofeng’, who had stopped, suddenly burst forward, rushing towards Third Princess Xiaoo Ying’Er with terrifying speed.
As he ran, his body writhed and transford into a Stone Monkey several zhang tall. He flung out an arm, already reaching for Xiaoo Ying’Er’s face.
The attack ca too quickly. Despite Xiaoo Ying’Er’s Sixth-Layer Cultivation, she had no ti to mobilize her True Qi.
The pupils of the several hundred Martial Cultivators around suddenly shrank. Unfortunately, the situation was so sudden that even those at the Seventh and Eighth Layers couldn’t save the Third Princess in ti!
Just as the massive Stone Monkey’s arm was about to crush Xiaoo Ying’Er’s head—
In the nick of ti,
SCREECH!
A phoenix cry sounded. At the sa mont, a palm-shaped manifestation of True Qi heavily struck the Stone Monkey’s arm.
BOOM!
A thunderous explosion echoed. The Stone Monkey’s entire outstretched arm instantly shattered!
Imdiately after, a figure blocked Third Princess Xiaoo Ying’Er. It was the one with the highest cultivation present, Grand Elder Ouyang Qinglan of the Profound Phoenix Celestial Sect.
WHOOSH! WHOOSH! WHOOSH! WHOOSH!
Dozens of palm shadows flashed like illusions, rapidly striking the enormous Stone Monkey.
In just one breath, the enormous Stone Monkey’s body was completely smashed, only a small part of its upper body and head remaining.
Only then did Ouyang Qinglan stop, her face ice-cold as she glared at the Stone Monkey. "A re Late Seventh-Layer Stone Monkey dares to attempt to assassinate our Third Princess at the banquet!"
The immobilized Stone Monkey suddenly burst into hysterical laughter. "Hahaha! If it weren’t for that lightning-wielding fellow disrupting my plan and arousing your suspicions, Xiaoo Ying’Er’s head would already be crushed!
"But Xiaoo Ying’Er will die sooner or later... How dare she plot against my king’s Thick Earth Ore Vein? Not only will you all perish, but even if a few Ninth-Layer mbers of the Human Race ca, they would just be lambs to the slaughter! Hahaha!"
After laughing wildly, Demon Qi rose from its body. Its torso and head gradually shrank, finally transforming into a single yellow monkey hair!
"A Demon Monkey Avatar!" The coldness on Ouyang Qinglan’s face beca more evident.
She turned to look at Xiaoo Ying’Er, whose expression was shifting, and a sudden shiver of dread coursed through her. The Stone Monkey demon was skilled at using its hairs to transform its appearance. Without a direct attack, it was very difficult to see through its Illusory Body. If that person from the Yin Talisman Sect hadn’t attacked and disrupted this Demon Monkey Avatar, the Third Princess might have truly t a grim fate! If the Third Princess were to et such a fate, and right in front of , the Celestial Sect Leader would probably throw into the sect’s death prison to suffer eternal tornt!
The surrounding Martial Cultivators, witnessing this scene, were equally filled with shock and lingering fear. A Great Demon’s avatar had infiltrated the Third Princess’s birthday banquet and nearly killed her. If the Third Princess had died, every single person present would have been in grave trouble!
Standing beside Xiaoo Ying’Er’s table, Hua Yanluo’s heart was pounding. She looked at Lin Xuankong, feeling deep remorse for having scolded him as an audacious maniac earlier.
Third Princess Xiaoo Ying’Er’s heart was also pounding furiously. She exhaled heavily, her gaze shifting towards Lin Xuankong in the corner.
Xiaoo Ying’Er certainly rembered this old genius who had once ’beaten’ her. Moreover, she had planned to privately summon Lin Xuankong after this banquet to discuss certain matters. Who would have thought that this Lin Xuankong would end up saving her life before she even had the chance! And he had saved her life at her own birthday banquet! And right before she was about to launch a crucial war!
Hmm, it seems I’ll have to handsoly reward this ’Blood Ox’ genius, Lin Xuankong. Coincidentally, I received many Demon Pearls today... But how did he discover the flaw in the Demon Monkey Avatar? The Demon Monkey Avatar is known as one of the most difficult Demon Techniques to guard against; even Grand Elder Ouyang Qinglan didn’t detect the flaw!
Her eyes shimred as she carefully looked at Lin Xuankong.
"My narrow escape this ti was thanks to Steward Lin detecting the flaw in advance. I will certainly reward you generously for this, very generously!
"However, I am a bit curious. With hundreds of powerful Martial Cultivators present, including myself, none of us noticed that the disguised General Yang was a Stone Monkey. How did you discover it?"
