Gu Qingli had only used her palms against her opponent, but her lightness techniques were still inferior to Princess Lan Xun. She could only rely on her dexterous and flexible movements to dodge, unable to approach Princess Lan Xun no matter what.
Although the princess had taken advantage of the opportunity to obtain a weapon, Gu Qingli didn't want to tell her to put down her whip and face the enemy fairly.
With Gu Qing Li's cold and proud personality, even if he was at a disadvantage, how could he lower his head to anyone? Moreover, she was not afraid of this delicate princess. Her weapon had not been used yet, and she had not lost.
Gu Qing gazed at the gap between the shadows of the whip. He touched the edge of the arrow's sleeve with his palm and a few rays of silver light appeared on his fingertip.
Princess Orchon had suffered this loss before, so she had not seen it clearly at the time. However, at this moment, she was on guard, and the bright sunlight on the summit of the mountain was dazzlingly bright. With a glance, she discovered it.
So it was a concealed weapon. No wonder it was activated last time! Princess Lan Xun couldn't help but look down on these despicable tricks of the concealed weapon. With a cold smile, she tightened her whip shadows and whipped them towards Gu Qing Li from all directions.
Unexpectedly, when Gu Qingli's silver needle left her hand, it unexpectedly passed through the shadow of the whip through every opening, as if it had overlooked the vibration of the whip, as if it were swimming in the sea.
Although it only brushed past his right wrist and was thrown to the ground, it became numb in the end. The movement of the dancing whip slowed down and could take advantage of this opportunity.
At this moment, Gu Qingli's needle net descended from the sky. It was as if a silver spring day had descended with a gentle and fine breeze and drizzling rain, gently and meticulously enveloping Princess Lan Xun!
Princess Lan Xun's heart went cold. Only then did she understand that Gu Qing Li had been concealing his strength just for this fatal blow, to take her down.
Lin Lisheng was the closest. With a loud shout, he jumped up from his horse and brandished his sword like a shadow that could not be touched by water, covering the top of her head.
Princess Lan Xun cared not for the numbness on her wrist, and used all her strength to protect her chest.
Even so, they were still unable to block the rain-thin silver needles. The tingling continued to come from her body, some of which had been slapped away by the wind of Princess Lan Xun's palm, some of which had even scratched her flesh, but in the end, a few had still entered her body.
Only now did Princess Lan Xun realize that the itch in the market was nothing at all. It was just the softness of a needle touching her acupoints, and nothing compared to the silver needles that entered her body like mud into the sea. They posed no threat at all.
Princess Lan Xun's face was pale. She subconsciously retracted her whip and quickly retreated, slapping at the place where her body had been pierced by the silver needles. However, she found nothing.
The soldiers of the western border, on the other hand, were anxious to protect their master. They dismounted their horses and moved forward, surrounding Gu Qing Li. Under Lin Lisheng's command, they attacked him bit by bit.
Although Gu Qingli's silver needles were powerful, they could not last forever. After the hundreds of silver needles lit up, cries of pain could be heard and guards fell one after another. However, she was forced to slowly retreat until she reached the edge of the cliff.
When Princess Lan Xun raised her eyes, she realized that Gu Qing Li was already suspended in the air behind her and involuntarily cried out, "Stop going forward! Get back, get back! "
Lin Li Sheng and the guards heard her words and quickly withdrew their attacks. However, there was still two people who had no time to retreat. Their swords and sabers were already in front of Gu Qing Li. They watched as she took a step into the air before falling down the mountain.
Princess Lan Xun had no time to think about the silver needles on her body. She swung her whip and rushed forward, only having enough time to throw the end of the whip a foot off the cliff.
In the blink of an eye, the clouds began to change. A slender white jade hand reached out and firmly gripped the end of the whip, but the falling force was only eased by this. On the contrary, even Princess Lan Xun couldn't help but involuntarily move towards the edge of the cliff.
Lin Liesheng and the other guards had already been ordered by Princess Lan Xun to retreat, including the two who hadn't made it in time. Now, they had to retreat as well, unable to react in time.
An enormous force came from below the whip. With a swing, it brought Princess Orchid out of the cliff!
Ah!" A mournful cry rang out, and the faces of all the guards changed color.
Lin Lisheng rushed to the edge of the cliff, his face pale. He saw the platform sticking out, and below it were lush green trees, and below them the deafening gush of a waterfall.
"Princess!" Princess Mo! " Lin Lisheng felt his whole body go cold, and his body start to tremble.
On the side, there was a pine tree with twisted branches that extended to the edge of the mountain rock. The noble Princess Lan Xun was currently falling on top of a pine branch that was not that thick, and her body was mostly on the outside. With a shake of her body, she could break the pine branch and fall down at any time.
As for her collar, Gu Qingli was holding it in her hands while standing close to the rock wall. Her mouth was covered as she stared at Gu Qingli with eyes as bright as autumn water, her eyes filled with both anger and shock.
"Shh!" "Don't move recklessly, or the noble Princess Lan Xun would very likely turn into a lump of meat." Gu Qing Li giggled beside her ear, her voice so soft it could barely be heard.
"Also, don't expect me to shout for help. If I get scared, with my hands shaking, you might fall down. Look at the scenery below, or do you want to take a bath?"
Princess Lan Xun stared at her with fierce eyes, and only after a long while did she slowly and unhurriedly nod her head.
Gu Qingli let go of her hand and pulled over a mountain vine that was hanging down from the cliff edge. She tested its toughness and threw it around Princess Orchon's body twice, so that part of her weight would hang from the mountain vine and she wouldn't fall head first.
After doing all this, Gu Qingli was still worried as she climbed up a mountain vine with one hand and grabbed Princess Lan Xun's collar with the other. She looked at her with a smile that was not a smile.
Princess Lan Xun knew that her current appearance was not at all elegant. She was half sitting on a pine branch with green leaves wrapped around her waist. If she were to be carried like this by Gu Qing Li, she would be in a miserable state.
"Princess, are you still not convinced?" Gu Qingli's smile widened.
Princess Lan Xun sneered. "Did this princess lose to you?" Why did he have to submit? If I hadn't been soft-hearted and swung the whip out to save you, I wouldn't have ended up in such a state. "
Gu Qingli smiled. "Only when there's a reason can there be a result. If it wasn't for the princess forcing me to the edge of the cliff, how could I have fallen to such a state?"
Princess Lan Xun was at a loss for words.
Suddenly, Gu Qingli's smile faded as she indifferently said, "Since the princess led me down this path, I can clearly see what she's thinking." "But I still want to determine the princess' true nature before deliberately falling down the cliff …"
"What?" You did it on purpose? " Princess Lan Xun's eyes blazed with fury as she watched the scene unfold in front of her.
Gu Qingli slowly said, "Princess, you dare to say that you didn't do it on purpose?" From the day I arrived here, the princess has sent her guards to thoroughly understand the roads and terrain of the western sea. She then started to plan out the place where the main hunting team would be squeezed out and when she would let me walk alone onto the side road … So much so that what kind of formation the guards are in can force me to walk this path of no return. "
"Humph!" Princess Lan Xun's eyes were filled with contempt, but she tacitly agreed.
"All I want to know now is why the princess hates me so much. "You even want to force me to a dead end?"
"When did I force you to die? "I just want to fight you to the death with me. I don't believe that you can make me fall for it the way you did last time."
"In fact, the princess has already fallen into his trap."
