Legend of the Heavenly Fruit
Eps. 121 — Palace Attacks III
"Teacher, let me take care of them..."
Seeing Zhou Yuan in difficulty facing his opponents, Jiang Yifei felt unable to keep silent and became a burden on the young man. He leaped onto the tile and faced the immortal snowman who was now throwing needles at him.
A needle shot towards Yifei, the girl replied with a shot of fireballs.
The needles that the immortal snow members released instantly disappeared when it hit the girl's flames, the blue fire technique that Jiang Yifei used had a high temperature, the needles they released would not survive its fire temperature so it instantly melted in the air.
Jiang Yifei initially felt fear against a genuine villain like this but after seeing Zhou Yuan's courage, the girl became motivated and emboldened herself.
Jiang Yifei might not be able to kill like Zhou Yuan did but the girl could injure her opponents with her abilities.
Seeing the Eternal Snow members being preoccupied by Jiang Yifei, Zhou Yuan smiled broadly at his opponents who made the nearby organization troops gulp and break out in cold sweat.
With the help of the needles of the Eternal Snow members alone they were already in an unfavorable situation especially now when Zhou Yuan could move freely.
Jiang Yifei's help allowed Zhou Yuan to focus more on the 12 opponents nearby. He played his sword even faster, leaving the 12 troops of the organization even more overwhelmed and wounded.
Zhou Yuan continued to attack them until his sword was clad in hot flames, not waiting for a long time until one of them started to get killed by his sword.
"How, how could this young man play a sword of this height..." The remaining organization troops retreated with shocked expressions.
They could see Zhou Yuan was still very young but had such high sword abilities and they had only seen him for the first time. Even Xiao Fan and Yue Jian who were famous in the martial world because of his swordplay could not play a sword as powerful as the young man.
Zhou Yuan did not wait for them to recover from his shock, this time he moved first to attack his opponent.
It was actually not difficult for Zhou Yuan to finish off the organization army in front of him quickly but right now the young man was using his physical strength without involving any manpower in the slightest.
Zhou Yuan as much as possible saved his inner strength especially after seeing the great assault situation in this palace, from his experience in the first life, he felt that this attack would last a long time.
Even if using only physical strength Zhou Yuan's strength remained high, it took a little while for Zhou Yuan to finally finish off all nearby enemies.
After killing his 12 opponents Zhou Yuan then turned towards the Eternal Snow member that Jiang Yifei was fighting against. The girl had a little trouble fighting her enemy.
Zhou Yuan's arrival immediately made the Eternal Snow members surprised, they wanted to run away after seeing Zhou Yuan kill their comrade but Zhou Yuan was already aware of his intentions. It did not wait long until they caught up with the others to the afterlife.
"Teacher, we have to save the others..." Jiang Yifei reminded Zhou Yuan again, after looking on the tile he found that there were many soldiers and servants who were in need of help.
Zhou Yuan could also see the situation clearly, as the number of organizational troops more than the palace soldiers made the opponent's position more advantageous. You could say the number of troops of the organization was twice the number of palace soldiers.
Zhou Yuan understood the girl's concern but his current concern was the Moon Emperor's Master Princess's safety.
"Daughter, your safety is paramount here, I will take you to safety first before saving them..."
Zhou Yuan raised an eyebrow, slightly surprised by the girl's reply.
Zhou Yuan initially thought the Princess had a selfish and selfish nature in times of this kind but it turned out that his conjecture was wrong.
Despite his rough, cold, and fierce attitude all along, it seemed like Jiang Yifei was a real Princess figure who cared and placed the safety of others above all else.
Zhou Yuan smiled, "Alright we will save them, make sure the Princess is near me..."
Jiang Yifei nodded, the two then went to one of the nearby soldiers who was fighting against the 3 forces of the organization. Zhou Yuan pulled out his sword then beheaded the three of them.
Not only there, Zhou Yuan and Jiang Yifei again moved in another direction where there was a palace servant who was being chased by the enemy.
The arrival of the fast-moving Zhou Yuan shocked the person who was chasing it, yet he reacted Zhou Yuan had already taken his life.
Similar events happened several times, Zhou Yuan and Jiang Yifei immediately came and helped those in danger.
Jiang Yifei unleashed fireballs from a distance at each of his opponents that left the organization's troops injured. The girl also blocked every needle attack directed at her as well as Zhou Yuan.
That made Zhou Yuan not have to worry about the enemy's long-range attacks, on the other hand he was amazed at Yifei for being so quick to adapt in the middle of a war like this.
"Teacher, there.." Jiang Yifei pointed to a group of maids who were being surrounded by dozens of enemies.
Zhou Yuan turned his head in the direction the girl pointed to then immediately moved quickly to it.
"Daughter protect the ladies, let me take care of the people who surround her."
Jiang Yifei nodded, he created a wall of fire that surrounded the maids. Besides being used to attack, Yifei could also use his blue fire technique as his defense.
Zhou Yuan had to admit that the Jiang Family's blue fire technique ability was impressive, Zhou Yuan directly faced the organization troops surrounding the lady with his sword skill.
The more people who were saved both made the organizational forces aware of the existence of Zhou Yuan and Jiang Yifei.
The combination of the two is unique, a woman who uses fire techniques both as a protector and attacks long distances with a young man who has high-level sword skills. This made both friends and opponents amazed.
The organization troops who were aware of the strength of the two finally decided to start focusing on attacking Zhou Yuan and Jiang Yifei. According to them, neither could be left for long or their comrades would more and more be killed.
Zhou Yuan who realized that immediately rushed over to ask Jiang Yifei to leave. He realized if the enemy's attention was focused towards the two then Zhou Yuan would have a hard time protecting the girl.
On the other hand Zhou Yuan felt his body feel hot, the murderous aura he had been hiding all along had now started to reappear after killing countless people.
