Chapter 291: Golden Nine Swords Slash
🕑 Added 2024-09-17 05:11:59 +0000 UTC"Watch out, sister-in-law!" Li Yunfeng shouted as he noticed the situation unfolding, immediately rushing toward Ye Xin.
Not only him, but also Fang Ziqian, Yang Tianhao, and others reacted quickly, preparing to assist.
However, Zhao Long's Tai Dragon Spear suddenly appeared in front of them, blocking their path. With a sneer, he said, "Why are you in such a hurry? Do you think His Majesty hasn't prepared any backup to protect Her Highness?"
Hearing Zhao Long's words, Li Yunfeng was confused and turned his gaze back toward Ye Xin.
Qin Feiyu, now inches away from Ye Xin, had a smug look on his face. Based on Lin Qian's previous performance, he was sure he couldn't defeat him head-on.
But just because he couldn't win in a direct confrontation, did that mean he couldn't outsmart him?
When Lin Qian had acted earlier, he had first targeted his sister and thrown her to Ye Xin to vent her anger. Moreover, he had prioritized killing the princes of the Wei and Autumn Kingdoms before turning his attention to his five battle generals. Clearly, Lin Qian did this because of the insults those two princes had hurled at Ye Xin.
This indicated how much Lin Qian cherished and protected the woman who wielded starlight soul power.
If he could capture her, wouldn't Lin Qian have no choice but to obey?
Upon hearing Li Yunfeng's warning, Ye Xin became aware of Qin Feiyu's sneak attack from behind. However, Qin Yiyi was still entangling her in battle, leaving her unable to break free.
Gritting her teeth, Ye Xin glared at Qin Yiyi in front of her and thought, "If you want to trap me, don't blame me for being ruthless."
With this thought, the starlight from Ye Xin's white dress became even more dazzling, pouring into the starlight sword in her hand, making it shine like a brilliant star.
"If you want to hold me back, then die!" Ye Xin's beautiful eyes flashed with resolve, and her starlight sword shot toward Qin Yiyi.
Like a falling star, the starlight sword's energy streaked toward Qin Yiyi, shattering her soul energy defense as if it were paper-thin.
Qin Yiyi could only feel the tiny starlight sword energy ravaging her body like a burning fire, eventually disintegrating her into fragments of starlight and fire that floated away into the sky.
The Princess of the Qin Empire perished at Ye Xin's hands.
If the trump card left by her father hadn't been neutralized by Zhao Long, she might have survived. But there were no "ifs" in this world.
"Royal sister!" Qin Feiyu roared in fury as he witnessed Qin Yiyi's death. His heart blazed with hatred, and he swore that once Ye Xin fell into his hands, he would torture her in every conceivable way to quench his rage.
Seeing Qin Feiyu closing in with no way to escape, Ye Xin steeled herself and prepared to pierce her own heart with the starlight sword.
She would rather die than be captured by Qin Feiyu and allow Lin Qian to be threatened.
She could already imagine the vile demands Qin Feiyu would make if he captured her, and she was certain Lin Qian would comply with them, no matter how disgusting they were.
To prevent such a scenario, she decided it would be better to end her life.
There was no way she would let Qin Feiyu's schemes succeed.
Just as Ye Xin was about to take her own life, Lin Qian's voice suddenly echoed in her mind: "Xin'er, don't be hasty. There's another function hidden within your starlight white dress..."
Lin Qian's voice stopped Ye Xin's sword just as it was about to pierce her heart. Suddenly, she noticed that the scenery around her had changed.
Qin Feiyu, who had been mere inches away from her, now appeared far in the distance. She found herself looking down at him from above.
And the figure Qin Feiyu was charging at was no longer her—it was Lin Qian, clad in his blazing imperial robe!
Ye Xin quickly realized what had happened. Their positions had been swapped.
"My imperial robe and your starlight white dress are connected. As long as I will it, I can swap places with you within a hundred-mile radius."
Lin Qian's explanation made everything clear to Ye Xin, and tears welled up in her eyes.
He had kept this ability hidden, always prepared to switch places with her in times of danger.
Lin Qian was always ready to take her place and bear the danger himself!
But now that their positions were swapped, the one who should be worried was Qin Feiyu!
Qin Feiyu, who had been aiming for Ye Xin, was suddenly confronted with Lin Qian's furious face. The abrupt change caught him off guard.
"Golden Nine Swords Slash!"
Seeing Lin Qian suddenly appear before him, Qin Feiyu didn't dare hold anything back. He spread his arms wide and formed a circle in front of his chest, channeling his golden soul energy into the golden sword hovering in front of him.
As the soul energy poured into the sword, eight golden sword shadows materialized around it, rotating in a circle around the central blade.
With each step back, putting distance between himself and Lin Qian, the nine golden swords grew larger, forming a barrier between him and his opponent.
The nine massive golden swords tilted slightly, like nine peaks, crashing down toward Lin Qian.
Lin Qian frowned slightly, his eyes glinting with scarlet-gold lightning. The Thunder Night Sword in his hand roared with dragon and thunder, while the imperial robe on his body billowed wildly, his scarlet-gold soul energy surging violently.
Raising the Thunder Night Sword, Lin Qian's eyes locked onto Qin Feiyu as he shouted, "Get lost!"
With his shout, Lin Qian swung the Thunder Night Sword downward with all his might.
Roar!
Nine divine dragons, made entirely of scarlet-gold lightning, surged out of his sword, their jaws wide open as they collided with the golden swords.
Crack!
The sharp sound of shattering echoed through the sky. In the blink of an eye, Qin Feiyu's ultimate soul technique was broken under the onslaught of the dragon's breath.
The nine dragons converged into a single stream of scarlet-gold sword energy, carrying the image of the divine dragons as they shot toward Qin Feiyu.
Just as Lin Qian's sword energy was about to strike Qin Feiyu, a faint blue light suddenly condensed into a barrier in front of him.
Boom!
Lin Qian's sword energy crashed into the barrier, producing a deafening explosion.
