At the same time, the azure sword light completely enveloped the Earth Rat!
Once the green bamboo had appeared, Hong Qinglin frowned. He was a little worried that he would directly kill the other party, since that was not his original intention! Although he did not hesitate to enter the Desolate Mountain Ranges to search for these people, the most important reason was still to try his best to convince them to serve the imperial family.
If it was too much of a problem, they could have kept it a secret! If he had to kill the other party the moment they met, then there was no need to even think about it!
A fourteen to fifteen year old grade-2 apothecary was someone who could make any influential power jealous and fight for it at all costs! The few rank 4 alchemists in the Yuan Kingdom had not even reached the level of a rank 2 alchemist when they were at this age. This was an existence that broke all records; in the future, they would basically be rank 4 alchemists!
Thus, no matter what price he had to pay, he had to recruit this genius apothecary over.
If Hong Qinglin knew that Bai Yushui was capable of refining a Grade Four Spirit Pill, what would he think?
"Yun'er, you can't …" Just as Hong Qinglin was deep in thought, he saw a green sword light pierce through the rat in front of him in the middle of the battle. His heart tightened, but it was too late for him to make a move!
However, in the next moment, he immediately came to his senses. Although the black hawk was pierced by the sword beam, it did not spurt any blood. Instead, it disappeared immediately. There was even an afterimage that appeared where the green light stood. It flashed a few times before disappearing again. That dense amount of sword energy had all been dodged by him without being able to harm him at all …
"Yun'er, be careful!"
"Princess, be careful …"
Hong Qinglin and the guards shouted at the same time because they saw a blurry shadow flash by and instantly appeared beside Hong Yun'er. The dagger in their hands was already thrusting towards her neck!
"How dare you!" With a wave of his sword, a ray of sword light shot out rapidly towards the middle of the two sides. He had calculated it well, when his sword qi reached the middle of the two sides, the mouse dagger would also be there, blocking his attack!
However, at the same time the old man launched his attack, the black hawk in the distance also moved. The black python's tendons in its hand became a full moon, and an arrow was already nocked on the bowstring!
"Swoosh …"
The arrow pierced through the air at a speed so fast that it was impossible to catch with the naked eye. In the next moment, it had already arrived between the ground rat and Hong Yun'er!
"Boom …"
The old man's sword qi exploded and turned into beams of light that disappeared, no longer having any effect! And at this moment, the dagger in the mouse's hand had passed through the spot where the sword energy had dissipated, and was placed on Hong Yun'er's neck!
Of course, he wouldn't casually hurt the princess. If he could move, they wouldn't have been in such a hurry to enter the Desolate Mountain Ranges that night! Therefore, he only restrained Hong Yun'er.
"Let go of the princess!" The four bodyguards' expressions immediately changed. One by one, they pulled out their weapons and looked at the rat with threatening expressions. However, they did not dare to act rashly. After all, the opponent's dagger was less than a centimeter away from the princess' white neck. Who would dare to make a move now?
The faces of Hong Qing Lin and the old man were also filled with nervousness, and they looked extremely grim. The two sides had only exchanged three moves. To be exact, Hong'er had used three moves, but the other side had only used one …
A martial practitioner at the late stage of the Spirit Point Realm was actually this powerful? Moreover, what was the movement technique he executed earlier? It was simply too fast, so fast that they were unable to adapt in a short period of time. It was likely that Princess Hong'er had failed in the blink of an eye because she was unable to adapt in a short period of time.
There was absolutely no difference between the two sides. In fact, if he fought a few more matches and Hong'er was familiar with his characteristics, then the Earth Mouse might not even be a match for Hong Yun'er!
But even so, the strength of this rat had already completely exceeded the expectations of Hong Qinglin and his men. It was simply unimaginable. One had to know that Hong'er was at the middle level of the Origin Convergence Stage. If one were to say that she could surpass her opponent by a small realm, it was still possible for her to defeat her opponent!
But now, it was obvious that someone else had surpassed her by an entire realm to defeat her …
That's right, this was already a big realm! Even if it was the peak of the Spirit Aperture Realm defeating an early layer in the Source Realm, it could still be considered a big realm ahead of the rest!
Also, other than this rat, the archer in the distance was not bad at all! Whether it was in terms of time or angle, the arrow had been shot out with absolutely no flaws. This was because the moment the old man made his move, he almost attacked at the same time. Moreover, he was able to instantly see the enemy's target and then snipe. This kind of prediction was truly unbelievable.
Furthermore, his opponent was also at the late stage of the Spirit Point Realm. The arrow had actually dispersed the old man's sword Qi! Even though this old man was not a direct member of the royal family, he was still an important figure in the imperial government. The second strongest member of the Guardian Hall, Lin Zhanchen, had trained in the first layer of the 'Green Bamboo Sword Art'.
The Swordqi released by such a character had actually been shot by a black hawk and exploded. This situation was simply unimaginable! Even if Lin Zhanchen had casually sent out a stream of sword qi, it would not have been so easily blocked.
"You're cheating! Let me go, we'll fight again!" Hong Yun'er was shocked from the start. She felt that she had actually lost the battle just after the battle had begun, and had even lost to a brat at the late stage of the Spirit Point realm. This was a great humiliation!
"When fighting to the death, you're already a corpse. Can you still live to fight again?" The Earth Rat looked at Hong Yun'er's beautiful face and mocked.
"Little brother, we have no ill intentions in coming here. Can you let go of me first and have a good talk with me?" Hong Qinglin took a step forward, trying his best to calm down as he sincerely spoke to the rat.
"It won't be that easy to let her go. But don't worry, I won't hurt the princess that easily! " The ground rat wasn't that easy to let go of. In his mind, he had more confidence now that he had a hostage with that kind of power in his hands.
"Then I wonder what little brother would like to do? Why don't you take us to see your boss, and then we can have a good talk? " Hong Qinglin asked.
