Duel Yard.
Helian Yunqian stood in an inconspicuous corner below the stage, and looked at the young girl who was in high spirits. The corner of his mouth slightly curled up, revealing a bit of gratification.
This little girl's talent was indeed outstanding. In just a short span of seven days, she was able to accurately execute the Sakura Thrust. When he first learnt the Spiritual Skill, he also spent nearly ten days before he started to familiarize himself.
"Master, this Miss Su is a bit too formidable today, he has already won ten matches in a row." Liu Sheng, who was at the side, could not help but praise, "If we win this round, we should be able to win a lot of gold coins!"
Helian Yunqian nodded slightly, as if he wanted to say that it was her, so of course she would be powerful.
At this time, Ye Zhuozhuo hurriedly ran in from outside the Duel Yard. His slightly trembling hands grabbed onto the corner of Helian Yunqian's clothes: "Brother, it's bad!"
Mu Lingxi also closely followed, standing in place without saying a word, and the atmosphere seemed especially heavy.
Helian Yunqian turned his head and saw that Ye Zhuozhuo's eyes were red, he could not help but tremble, and anxiously asked: "What happened?"
"Father had an accident at the border." As Ye Zhuozhuo said this, he couldn't stop his tears from rolling down.
These words were like a thunderbolt that struck Helian Yunqian's heart.
Ye Chengxuan, who was also Ye Zhuozhuo's father, might not have been Helian Yunqian's biological father, but he had saved his life and brought him up. To him, this could be considered as a heavy debt.
Helian Yunqian took care of all of Ye Chengxuan's matters in the capital while Ye Chengxuan stayed at the borders to guard them. Because the borders were very peaceful and the scenery was nice, Ye Chengxuan had stayed at the borders for more than a year, so he was basically under no pressure and could even enter the "old age" state ahead of time.
Who would have thought that after more than ten years of peace at the border, there would suddenly be an uproar? This kind of news was quite unbelievable.
"Brilliant, don't worry. Tell me what happened slowly." Although Helian Yunqian was also very worried, he was the first to speak and comfort his little sister.
Ye Zhuozhuo nodded his head, "I heard that recently, the borders would often have fierce and ruthless spirit beasts roaming about, and every time they attacked the barracks, there would be no warning. In order to protect the camp, Father was heavily injured by the spirit beasts, and right now, the borders are in chaos.
"There must be a reason behind this." Helian Yunqian slightly frowned, he knew that this matter was definitely not simple.
"What should we do now?" "Father is severely injured, and at the moment, he is just a group of dragons without a leader. If those Vicious Beasts were to come again, with father's character, I'm afraid that even if he risked his life, he would still protect the camp!" The more Ye Zhuozhuo thought about it, the more worried he became.
"Shining, don't worry." Helian Yunqian hurriedly comforted her, "How about this, I will bring you to the border trials now and settle the things there."
"Alright." Ye Zhuozhuo immediately agreed.
"What about me?" Mu Lingxi could not wait and asked, "The Royal Brother is gone too, I am worried, let me go too."
Helian Yunqian's gaze landed on the girl on the stage. "Mn, Liu Sheng, you stay behind and explain it to Xi Ruo. Don't let her come to the border alone.
This matter could not be delayed, he could only speak a little more with Liu Sheng, before leaving with Mu Lingxi.
Liu Sheng stood in place, and was at a loss of what to do. What should I say? "
Suddenly, a small hand patted his shoulder, and Su Xiruo's voice came from behind: "Liu Sheng, what are you muttering to yourself about?"
Liu Sheng turned his head and for a moment, he did not know how to explain, "Miss Su, I …"
"Where's Yun Qian? How come he disappeared in the blink of an eye?" Su Xiruo looked around, but he did not see any trace of Helian Yunqian at all. He only felt that it was a little strange.
He was the one who had said that he would follow her every step of the way, so why was it that when he turned around, she was already gone?
"Miss Su, Mistress, Shining Mistress and Prince have just rushed to the Dragon Seal Empire Entrance." Liu Sheng did not hide anything.
"Did something happen at the border?" Su Xiruo's expression changed as he roughly guessed what was going on.
Liu Sheng bit his lower lip: "It's Old General Ye."
"What happened to General Ye?" Su Xiruo was unable to calm down and asked anxiously.
"In the past few days, Dragon Seal Empire have not been peaceful at the borders. A few fierce spirit beasts would often appear and hurt Old General Ye." Liu Sheng then explained the whole situation to her.
After Su Xiruo finished listening, he let out a small sigh, "For such a huge matter, why didn't you just call me? I have to go to the border pass! "
"Miss Su, don't!" Liu Sheng immediately spoke up to stop her, "Master has already instructed me, you are not allowed to go to the border trials alone, so don't make things difficult for me. The border trials are extremely dangerous, if you go, it might bring you trouble instead!"
"Furthermore, Master said that he will be back within a day. Miss Su, you should stay for now." Liu Sheng said a lot of persuasive words, afraid that she would be unhappy.
Being stuck in the middle like this, it was really hard to be a person!
Hearing that, Su Xiruo had the thought of giving up, nevermind, he was worried for nothing, if Yun Qian's strength was insufficient, then he would have to go!
Since Yun Qian had said that he would be back within a day, then he must be confident in his own abilities. Thus, he decided to wait patiently for a day.
"Alright, then I'll be waiting for them to come back." Su Xiruo prayed in his heart, praying for them to return safely.
The Dragon Seal Empire gate was surrounded by an impenetrable forest. The grass and trees were lush, and the environment was comfortable. This used to be a precious land of feng shui, but now, it was filled with an unexpected repressive atmosphere.
The army camp was everywhere, and they were all well-prepared, as they casually blocked the Vicious Beasts's assault. Even though they knew that they were just a insignificant weakling in the hands of those Vicious Beasts!
"There's movement!" One of the guards seemed to have sensed something and his voice trembled.
"The Vicious Beasts is coming again!"
A burst of panicked voices spread. Following that, the soldiers saw their comrades falling down one by one in front of them, their faces and bodies covered in the sinister bloody marks left behind by the Vicious Beasts!
Panic, uneasiness, came one after another. They had no choice but to bite the bullet and fight back.
Over a hundred Vicious Beasts s attacked him head-on, their blood-red eyes were filled with killing intent and coldness. Shouts could be heard incessantly, and in an instant, a large amount of injuries and deaths occurred.
Mu Lingyi, who was standing in the tent, looked at the tragedy happening outside, and became restless. He took out his sword and could no longer sit still: "We will go and kill them ourselves!"
"Your majesty, calm down!" One of the guards tried to dissuade her, "It's too dangerous outside. With your priceless body, you must not go out!"
"Get out of the way, we're all going to die here, who cares about that golden body!" Mu Lingyi obviously could not stay still, he pushed aside the guards and rushed out, his sword stabbing into the Vicious Beasts's body, cutting down a few of them.
Mu Lingyi's killing intent grew, but, with the Vicious Beasts surrounding him growing larger, he became more and more powerless, and in the end, was forced into a corner by the five Vicious Beasts, leaving him with no path to retreat.
Mu Lingyi's fingers tightened, he knew that he was doomed this time. Seeing the sharp claws attack towards Mu Lingyi, he prepared to fight to the death. He closed his eyes, and in the next second, he heard the roars of the Vicious Beasts.
When he opened his eyes, he saw that the Vicious Beasts around him was lying on the ground. Helian Yunqian was dressed in white, with a green blade in his hand.
"This subject came late to save Your Majesty's life. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
"General Helian, you're finally here!" Mu Lingyi crawled up from the ground, feeling as if his legs had gone soft.
It was a good thing that this guy came in time. Otherwise, he would have turned into a pool of blood.
Helian Yunqian raised his hand and set up a Barrier around Mu Lingyi's body, then warned: "Your majesty, stay where you are, leave the rest for this humble subject to handle!"
