"Break!"
Ye Zhiqin slashed out with her left hand, her Battle Qi surging towards the wind-elemental airflow. Upon contact, the two exploded in mid-air, and the magic vanished!
At the same time, Ye Zhiqin also sped up and rushed forward, because she knew that if she slowed down, she would be attacked by others and surrounded.
As it turned out, her idea was correct. If she had been any slower, other Battle Qi magic would have come at her and injured her!
However, Ye Zhiqin was only Level 8 Martial Warrior. It was quite strong for someone her age to have such strength, but the people she was fighting were all seasoned veterans, and they all possessed the same level of strength. The numerical advantage put her at a significant disadvantage.
If no other unforeseen events occur at this time, Ye Zhiqin will be theirs for the taking!
So, at this moment, Ye Zhiqin's mind was racing. She needed to come up with a way to solve this predicament, and she felt that the best solution was...
Surrounded by a group of shameless experts, Ye Zhiqin suddenly stopped, freezing in place. Her action stunned the swordsmen, who were all confused about what she was going to do.
While the swordsmen were stunned, it didn't mean that Ye Zhiqin was also frozen in place. After pausing, she immediately leaped up, gathered eighty percent of her Battle Qi, and unleashed her most prized Battle Qi technique— Twin Flame Slash!
The two swords were swung out simultaneously, forming a double Battle Qi slash in a cross shape, rushing towards the roof of the gate!
Seeing the Twin Flame Slash burning, the Duke and the others turned green. They understood what Ye Zhiqin was trying to do: she wanted to create a big commotion and alert the people inside!
Why are all these stunningly beautiful girls I've encountered today so abnormal? Let's not even talk about the two ice and fire girls from before. This seemingly well-behaved girl is no ordinary person either. She's calm, collected, and able to see the situation clearly.
It seems they've already lost the chance to stop her; they can only watch as Ye Zhiqin's Twin Flame Slash shatters the roof with a deafening roar. The fiery Battle Qi, having completed its mission, doesn't disappear but continues its ascent into the night sky, its fiery trails flashing across the starry night.
To stay or to leave?
The Duke is now considering this problem. If those people come out later, he won't be able to grab the little girl. But that's all he can do!
Although the Duke and his men were shameless, they had not offended the Muddleheaded Hall. At most, they knocked out a guard, which was nothing serious, and there would be no problem if they stayed.
The roof of this gate was breached by Ye Zhiqin, and it has nothing to do with them!
So the Duke decided to stay; he wanted to trick Ye Zhiqin! He wanted to vent his anger!! He was already annoyed that he couldn't win over Ye Zhiqin, and to have her see through his weakness so easily made him feel even more humiliated.
Ye Zhiqin rolled over and climbed onto the roof of the broken door. She was now certain that she had done the right thing; these people were indeed afraid of disturbing the people inside.
However, even though she was certain that she had done nothing wrong, she still needed to keep her distance from these people, so Ye Zhiqin went straight to the rooftop to observe the changes in the situation.
"Who did this! Is the gate really that unlucky today? It's been vandalized twice!"
Soon, the Knights of Light appeared at the gate. Looking at the broken roof, he was somewhat moved, thinking about how the gate had just been repaired.
"Great knight, it's that girl up there. She said she was going to break in and demand someone back. The guards at the door tried to stop her, but she knocked them unconscious. We were just about to help when she broke down the door and jumped up there!" The Duke immediately accused her of being the villain, twisting the facts.
"Miss, what have we done to offend you that you have to come here and destroy our gate?" The Knights of Light raised his head and looked at Ye Zhiqin standing above. Under the starlight, Ye Zhiqin's hazy beauty made all the knights pause in surprise.
"Did you fight with two girls who control ice and fire magic today?" Ye Zhiqin didn't act impulsively and wanted to find out the truth first.
"Yes, they are inside now!" the Knights of Light nodded in reply.
"Then please hand them over, and this matter will end here. Otherwise, you will not be able to bear the consequences!" Ye Zhiqin frowned, now believing that the people here had really captured Ye Lanyu.
Based on Ye Zhiqin's understanding of Ye Lanyu, she knew that Ye Lanyu could be a little reckless at times, but she was very sensible and wouldn't stay here without even saying hello.
Even if Ye Lanyu is like this, the Seventh Princess who is with her will not be like this, so the two of them must not be in there willingly!
However, Ye Zhiqin failed to consider one crucial point: if Ye Lang were present, the aforementioned problems would cease to be problems and become perfectly normal!
However, Ye Zhiqin did not know that Ye Lang was here. She had not heard any news beforehand. Only Ye Lanyu and the other two suspected that the Muddleheaded Divine Physician was Ye Lang, and they did not tell anyone else.
"What a joke! There's nothing here that we can't afford! It's the ones we can't afford to hand over to you!" the Knights of Light sneered.
"In that case, I'll take my leave!" Ye Zhiqin said decisively, and then prepared to leave the area.
Since negotiations failed, we should withdraw first and tell others what happened. If we were to fight these "enemies" head-on, we would only suffer pointless sacrifices.
Ye Zhiqin could tell from the skills of these Knights of Light that they were all experts far superior to her. Not to mention so many of them, even just one of them would be beyond her ability to handle!
"Trying to leave?! This isn't your home, where you can come and go as you please!!" A Knights of Light leaped onto the roof, attempting to grab Ye Zhiqin.
Ye Zhiqin had anticipated this move. She had already flown away as soon as she finished speaking. She did not fly to the ground, because that place would only expose her more and make it easier for someone to catch her.
She flew towards the other side of the Muddleheaded Hall, where the chances were much greater than elsewhere, although it was also very risky. She had to pass through the Muddleheaded Hall, and if someone flew out from the middle, she could get herself into trouble.
But this is the only way we can do it now. Here it's just a possibility, but outside it's 100% certain we'll be caught!
Based on the performance of the guards at the Muddleheaded Hall, Ye Zhiqin had reason to believe that the Muddleheaded Hall's defenses were very weak, which was why it was the place she was most willing to take the risk.
Seeing her like this, the Knights of Light naturally gave chase...
Inside the Muddleheaded Hall, in Ye Lang's residence, he was telling a story to the three girls who had caused the commotion outside—his story...
