Chapter 32


“Li’er!”


Ye Fengtian, who was galloping over on his horse, was scared out of his wits when he saw this scene. His entire person had already stepped on the horse and flew towards Ye Qianli like a great Garuda spreading its wings. Ye Fengtian’s domineering aura—of a Mystic King—also rushed out at the sound of that huge hurtling arrow, attempting to disperse it.


Xu!


However, before his power could approach, the raging flames that shot out from Ye Qianli’s whole body had already incinerated that huge, white arrow. The sizzling sound of the arrow being burned caused Ye Fengtian, who had already made his move, to become slightly stunned.


Bang!


By the time Ye Fengtian’s Mystic King Strength Wave accurately struck the burning arrow, it only scattered a few sparks as the arrow had already been burned to ashes.


“…” Ye Fengtian was stunned for a while before he had to admit that his daughter no longer needed him when he finally thought of protecting her.


However, no matter what, it was good that his daughter was fine. Ye Fengtian suppressed the complicated feelings in his heart, regained his thoughts, and looked at his daughter. “It’s not safe in the city now. Follow me back… to the Sacred Palace first.”


“Is this an invasion launched by the Black Tortoise Dynasty in the north? What happened in the north?” Ye Qianli asked instead. From those white mice’s bodies, she had already analyzed that they were a species that grew in a land of extreme cold all year round.


Coupled with the fact that she was no stranger to these arrows, she recognized that these were the Black Tortoise Arctic Arrows of the Black Tortoise Dynasty in the north! In that case, were the attackers from the Black Tortoise Dynasty’s army?


However, was it a regular army or a private secret army? If it was a regular army, it meant that her grandfather—whom she was missing just now—had lost the war in the Northern Region! Otherwise, how could the regular army of the Black Tortoise Dynasty go through him and reach Vermilion Bird City?!


Thinking up to this point, Ye Qianli directly asked again, “How is Grandfather?”


Ye Fengtian was shocked tremendously by the question but replied solemnly, “The current situation is unclear. There is no news from all the transmission points on the roads to the north. I’m afraid they have all been destroyed and controlled.”


“However, we can confirm that the huge army that launched the attack outside the capital is the regular army of the Black Tortoise Dynasty. It’s the Seventh Prince’s special forces—the Black Armor Cavalry! Father… I’m going out of the city soon to direct the troops. Quickly go to the Sacred Palace to seek refuge.”


“I’ll go with you,” Ye Qianli rejected him.


“No! It is very likely that you have become an important target of the enemy! Your grandfather will also send word to the Sacred Palace as soon as he has news. If you follow the Holy Emperor, you will be able to get the news as soon as possible.” Ye Fengtian naturally did not agree.


Swish! Swish!


As they were speaking, a few giant arrows fell around the two of them yet again. With a ‘boom’, they smashed into a piece of debris and shattered the ruined walls. The screams of a few commoners could be heard at this moment, too.


At this moment, more and more arrows were being shot into the city, and countless streets and buildings were destroyed. If it wasn’t for the fact that most people had gone to watch the Prodigy Convention today, the majority of the people would probably have died.


However, the Black Tortoise Dynasty’s decision to attack today was a slap in the face!


“All right, I’ll go to the Sacred Palace.” Ye Qianli didn’t object this time. Moreover, as soon as she finished speaking, she’d already flashed towards the direction of the Sacred Palace, and her speed was extremely swift! However, wherever she passed, as long as she encountered injured citizens, she would still stop to treat them and give them medicine.


“…” Ye Fengtian’s attention was focused on her for a while, and a hint of moisture appeared in his eyes. He seemed to have recalled something, but he suppressed it in the blink of an eye. Then, he mounted his horse.


Da, da, da! At the same time, a military commander from the front flew over. “General! All of the capital’s army has been assembled. Please return quickly, General.”


“Let’s go!” Ye Fengtian took the helmet from the commander and spurred his horse towards the north gate of the capital where the 30,000-strong army was already gathered.



On the other side, when Ye Qianli arrived at the Sacred Palace, she discovered that countless holes had been created by the giant arrows along the path, too. However, the Sacred Palace was still safe and sound. A squad of about a thousand golden-armored Sacred Palace soldiers was standing guard alertly at the Sacred Palace’s entrance.


“Ye Qianli!”


While Ye Qianli was still observing the Sacred Palace, a voice called out her name from the direction of the Sacred Palace. She followed the voice and discovered that there was someone above the entrance of the Sacred Palace.


She focused her attention and looked closely with her right eye. She could clearly see that the person above was an old man with white hair and silver eyebrows. This person had been sitting beside Holy Emperor Rong Feng throughout the Prodigy Convention just now. He was the Grand Secretary of the dynasty, Lord Bai.


“Be careful! Behind you!”


However, at this moment, the magic box transmitted a message urgently.


“!” Ye Qianli immediately turned around. Her right eye, which was especially bright when she focused, clearly caught sight of a black arrow! It was shooting towards her like a ghost.


“Be careful!” At this moment, Grand Secretary Bai—who was guarding the entrance of the Sacred Palace—suddenly shouted. It was obvious that he had also discovered this arrow and was alarmed by its strangeness.


In the blink of an eye!


Just as Grand Secretary Bai burst out shouting, the black arrow silently appeared abruptly in front of Ye Qianli and suddenly accelerated as it neared her! Due to the extreme speed, the sharp tip of the arrow created friction that caused sparks to ignite in the air.


Not only that…!


Swoosh!


The tail of the black arrow even split open nine wings instantly, pushing the arrow even faster! The impact was even stronger, as if a violent hurricane was sweeping towards Ye Qianli.


“Nine-Tailed Nether Ice Arrow!” When Grand Secretary Bai saw this, he instantly recognized the name of this arrow, and his face turned pale as a result. This was because this arrow was a Spirit Tool Tier arrow, and its offensive power was lethal even to a top-grade Mystic King like him.


Moreover, such a powerful arrow was clearly aimed at Ye Qianli. This was an assassination! A conspiracy to assassinate a talent cultivator. There was probably someone waiting for Ye Qianli in front of the Sacred Palace early on, waiting to release this arrow for her.


“Explode!”


However, in the face of this sudden arrow, Ye Qianli—who had been ready to fire after accumulating her power long before—released a brilliant blazing inferno the instant this arrow was only 10 feet from her.


Roar—


The constantly raging fire of the angry dragon suddenly erupted with her as the center. It violently clashed with that whirlwind-like strange black arrow, causing a shock wave that shook the earth.


“!”


At that moment, Grand Secretary Bai—who was staring intently at this scene—felt his heart rise to his throat. He was unable to leave the Sacred Palace to rescue Ye Qianli, and even if he could, he wouldn’t be able to make it in time either! He could only hope that Ye Qianli would be able to avert the disaster on her own.


Rumble—


The terrifying shockwave lasted for quite a while before the visual shock of black and red slowly dissipated! In the center of this shockwave, Ye Qianli—who was wrapped in flames—gradually revealed her intact appearance under the worried gaze of Grand Secretary Bai.


“Good!”


At this moment, even Grand Secretary Bai couldn’t help but lose his self-control—applauding her. In his heart, he couldn’t help but praise her wildly. She was indeed worthy of being a Nine Mystical Extraordinary Fire talent cultivator. She had just awakened her talent but already possessed the combat strength of a top Mystic King.


“Ye Qianli, quickly retreat into the Sacred Palace!” However, Grand Secretary Bai—who had finished cheering—also knew that Ye Qianli was currently in great danger. Thus, he loudly urged her to retreat while ordering the Sacred Palace guards to prepare to offer assistance.


Ye Qianli nodded upon hearing this and quickly rushed towards the entrance of the Sacred Palace. She did not forget to keep her guard up high as she observed her surroundings. She also knew that the arrow just now was aimed at her, and the person who shot that arrow was not dead yet. Therefore, anything could happen next.


“Li’er—”


Just as Ye Qianli was about to step into the range of the guards’ assistance, a sharp voice cried out shrilly. All of a sudden, she turned around and saw Su Qin.


However, Su Qin was currently being held hostage…
