In terms of strategy, Princess Xiu far surpassed those three Old Ancestors!
Even though those three Old Ancestors were guarding the totem Incarnation, since the totem had appeared in the world, it was definitely not sothing the three Old Ancestors could truly control.
And the high-levels of the Moonwater Tribe had separated themselves from their clansn, which was simply a loss outweighing the gain.
Ye Luo couldn’t be bothered with these people. No matter how scheming Princess Xiu was, he had taken her Bodhi Liquid, and it had helped him condense his Divine Consciousness Gold Body. In terms of strength, he had made a complete leap. So, the things he had agreed to do for Princess Xiu, he naturally had to see through.
With that in mind, his figure turned into a streak of flowing light and shot straight toward the Moonwater Tribe.
At this mont, Princess Xiu’s figure was already looking rather bedraggled.
"Princess Xiu, I have to admit, your cultivation has progressed far too quickly. The three of us besieging you, and you can still hold on for so long. If it weren’t for the Moonwater Tribe seeking death, if you had a few more years of secluded cultivation, we wouldn’t be able to do anything to you. But today, you must die!" The future Clan Leader of the Kunshan Tribe had completely lost his forr composure; his face twisted into savagery.
Originally, the few of them were all heirs of their respective tribes, and in terms of strength, they were on roughly the sa level. But with Princess Xiu suddenly rising up, that ant she would inevitably suppress them in the future. This made the other heirs uneasy, and they developed killing intent toward Princess Xiu.
"Hmph, that depends on whether you have the ability!" Princess Xiu’s expression was ice-cold, completely ignoring their words as she struck out with a palm.
However, her expression suddenly changed. She abruptly shifted her body, but a Sword Shadow, like a venomous snake’s tongue, silently appeared at her shoulder.
With a puff, a spray of blood exploded, and half of Princess Xiu’s shoulder was turned into mangled flesh and blood.
Not only that—damage to the flesh was actually nothing serious at this realm for a cultivator—but the problem was that this sword strike had even injured her Divine Soul, and on the sword there was a power of Curse, making the wound and her Divine Soul extrely hard to heal!
"It’s you!" Princess Xiu narrowed her eyes and shouted sharply.
In the air, a figure appeared as well. From afar, if one ignored the longsword in his hand dripping with fresh blood, he would look just like a frail scholar.
"Heh heh, Princess Xiu, you truly are sothing. Even the number one Assassin of the Space-Ti Channel couldn’t take your life!" The future Clan Leader of the Kunshan Tribe let out a sinister laugh.
"So it really is you, Xiao Yijian. My Qingxiu Peak has no grievance or hatred with you. Are you really going to wade into this muddy water?" Princess Xiu asked, her face pale.
Right now, she had to use over half her Mana just to resist the damage from that one sword. Like this, how could she still be a match for these people?
"I have no enmity with anyone. I’m just an Assassin. They spent Crystal Stones to buy my one sword, so of course I have to keep my word."
With that said, he didn’t say anything more and simply stood quietly to the side.
As for this Xiao Yijian, he was absolutely an oddity among those in the Space-Ti Channel. Born into a small clan, he left his tribe at a young age. No one knew what he experienced in between; he’d always lived off assassination, and every ti, he would draw only one sword. Hence the na Xiao Yijian—Xiao One-Sword—but very few could withstand the power of that single strike.
Of course, having him draw that one sword was not sothing just anyone could afford. At the very least, those small tribes shouldn’t even dream of it; the price was enough to seriously hurt a small tribe’s foundations.
"In that case, can I hire you to draw another sword and wipe out these bastards?" Princess Xiu asked directly.
At her words, the eyelids of the other young n all twitched. This Xiao Yijian’s strength was truly unfathomable, and he was deeply versed in the ways of assassination, impossible to defend against. His personality was eccentric too. If he really agreed to Princess Xiu’s request, it would give them a serious headache.
"Brother Xiao, since we paid for you to draw that sword, it ans our business isn’t over yet. How about this—we’ll pay a huge sum for Brother Xiao to draw another sword?" The future Clan Leader of the Kunshan Tribe said with a smile.
"You should know my rules. If I draw a second sword within the sa day, the price must be at least ten tis higher!"
Hearing this, everyone fell silent.
The Crystal Stone resources within the Space-Ti Channel were limited to begin with. With him opening his mouth and asking for ten tis the price, even a large clan like the Moonwater Tribe couldn’t afford that!
Moreover, with Princess Xiu heavily injured, the other youths wouldn’t need to exert much effort to capture her.
But the future Clan Leader of the Kunshan Tribe rely laughed. "In that case, Brother Xiao, please rest at the side."
If they couldn’t afford him, then Princess Xiu certainly couldn’t either. Although this Xiao Yijian was eccentric, he kept his word. Otherwise, he couldn’t have beco the number one Assassin.
Princess Xiu wasn’t surprised. That move just now was rely to buy herself a bit of ti to heal.
But in truth, she quickly realized it was useless. Without a few days of recovery, it would be hard to expel the power of Curse from this injury.
Yet in the current situation, forget a few days—even an hour’s ti wouldn’t be given to her!
"In that case, I shall take my leave." As he spoke, his figure started to beco ethereal.
However, a strange force suddenly exploded beside him, causing his blurry figure to stumble and be forcibly yanked out of the Teleportation state.
"Who is it!"
His expression beca extrely ugly. He was an Assassin, and while Assassins focused on killing in the dark, they focused even more on escaping.
Yet just now, he’d actually been unable to Teleport away. This stirred up intense unwillingness in his heart, and at the sa ti, the killing intent on his body surged out almost tangibly.
"You hurt soone and want to leave? I don’t think that’s appropriate."
A lazy voice rang out, and then, a young man’s figure abruptly appeared in front of Xiao Yijian.
It was Ye Luo!
"Who are you!" Xiao Yijian imdiately grew wary, because from Ye Luo he sensed a strong feeling of danger.
An Assassin’s senses were far keener than those of an ordinary cultivator.
"Who I am doesn’t matter. What matters is—you hurt her." Ye Luo pointed at Princess Xiu.
"So you’re from Qingxiu Peak." Xiao Yijian narrowed his eyes.
"No, I’m not from Qingxiu Peak." Ye Luo hurriedly shook his head. "I’m hers."
Ye Luo’s face had been perfectly serious, but once those words ca out, they instantly took on a rather ambiguous flavor. The way everyone around looked at Ye Luo and Princess Xiu also gained a hint of suggestiveness.
At his words, a blush climbed onto Princess Xiu’s pale face and she lightly spat in rebuke, yet Ye Luo’s arrival did indeed set her mind at ease quite a bit.
