Translator: 549690339
By the time these people arrived, even the powerful Saintess of the Five Poison Sect would succumb to the onslaught of tens of thousands of soldiers and die here today.
Yan Wangqiu was a veteran Jianghu.
At this moment, he noticed the changing situation. Seeing Lan Cai’er busy fighting him while also fending off the arrow formation, he decided not to focus on defense alone and began to counterattack.
His waves changed from their previous steady state, transforming into massive sea waves that surged towards Lan Cai’er.
How mighty was the True Qi of an Inborn Grandmaster who had cultivated for a hundred years?
Lan Cai’er felt it now.
As she faced the fierce onslaught from the old lord Yan Wangqiu, her outer layer of colorful mist was almost instantly shattered.
Fortunately, in the nick of time, she urgently withdrew her True Qi, rearranging two more layers of mist to barely block the oncoming waves.
But as her True Qi was redistributed here, it was naturally diminished elsewhere.
The True Qi ribbons in other directions weakened dramatically after a significant portion was urgently relocated.
After facing several more rounds of arrow attacks, the already deteriorated True Qi ribbons could no longer hold up.
With countless “thuds,” one direction’s ribbons finally shattered and could not support itself any longer.
A dozen or so arrows with residual force flew towards Lan Cai’er.
However, before they even came close, she swung her fist, shattering them with a gust of wind.
Yet, even so, faced with an open vulnerability in one direction, the Saintess had no strength left to remedy it.
After all, she was still a newly promoted Grandmaster, and her True Qi accumulation was not abundant.
Now, facing the consumption of thousands of inferior martial artists and the entanglement of a century-old Grandmaster, the drawbacks of insufficient True Qi became apparent.
She had only been fighting for half an hour, and she was already struggling to hold on.
Lan Cai’er knew the situation was dire, looking at the reinforcements gradually approaching and slowly forming their battle array.
She glanced at Yan Wangqiu, who had once again launched a new round of attacks after his previous one was unsuccessful.
She also saw another volley of arrows flying towards her.
She Imew that it was impossible to assassinate this traitorous general today.
With resentment, Lan Cai’er glared at Lu Yuan before making up her mind, turning around to flee: “You dog of a general, I will kill you someday!”
Right now, the surrounding soldiers were gathering in ever-increasing numbers. If she didn’t take advantage of the fact that they hadn’t fully assembled, and the surrounding military formation hadn’t completely sealed off this place, she would not be able to escape later.
As the Saintess of the Five Poison Sect, she was burdened with the great mission of restoring the Miao People; she couldn’t die here.
Moreover, as a Grandmaster under thirty years old, Lan Cai’er had a boundless future ahead. She still had hundreds of years to live and didn’t want to die in such a place.
So at this moment, when her assassination attempt failed, she no longer insisted but instead decided to retreat. However, others wouldn’t let her leave so easily.
“Stop her!”
Seeing Lan Cai’er turning to flee, Lu Yuan was furious and immediately issued orders.
Then, he dug out his concealed strong bow from the ruins, aimed at Lan Cai’er’s fleeing figure, and fired three arrows in a chain.
The three arrows, engulfed in scorching flames, tore through the void like three heavenly fires.
These three arrows caught up to Lan Cai’er, who had escaped over a dozen yards, in an instant.
Sensing the tremendous threat behind her,
The Saintess of the Five Poisons instinctively performed an agile mid-air flip to narrowly avoid two of the arrows.
Unable to avoid the third arrow completely, she used the colorful ribbon surrounding her to wrap around it instead.
But the moment the two made contact, the Red Sun True Intent contained within the arrow by Lu Yuan instantly erupted. A scorching blaze exploded in mid-air, turning the surrounding area into a sea of fire.
Having studied the martial arts external body for half a year, Lu Yuan now possessed profound knowledge of this path. Although he had not yet reached the requirement for breaking through to the Innate realm, he was infinitely close.
He had also studied some techniques to temporarily imbue his Martial Dao True Intent into arrows, achieving a long-range attack effect.
Now, Lan Cai Er was “fortunate” enough to be the first person to experience this technique.
Needless to say, the experience was undoubtedly intense.
The explosion of the arrow, which was nearly at the power level of an Inborn Grandmaster, instantly inflicted heavy damage to Lan Cai’er’s True Qi ribbons, which had already been weakened numerous times.
She was blown away by the fiery blast, but she managed to stabilize herself in the air after a few spins and continued to flee.
But at this moment, another round of arrow rain came, blocking all directions with countless dense black spots, leaving no dead angles.
Left with no choice, Lan Cai’er selected a direction to charge head-on through the rain of arrows.
After breaking through this blockade, she finally reached the edge of the battlefield.
Several military formations surrounded the area, blocking her path.
The soldiers inside the formations, though afraid seeing the monstrous woman approaching, still fought against her under the constraints of military law.
However, just like the personal guards who wanted to circle around and kill Lan Cai’er earlier, these charging soldiers collapsed one after another before they even got close, engulfed by the colorful smoke..
