However, Ye Lang was still a little confused about the reason behind this.
"Is that so?" Ye Lang scratched his head, trying hard to recall. His expression made the girl feel a little frantic, and she really wanted to chop Ye Lang in half with her sword.
"..." Ye Lanyu and the Seventh Princess shook their heads helplessly. It seemed that this matter was indeed insignificant to him, and he could easily forget such things.
"Oh, I remember now, you're that girl. How are your clothes? Do you want me to help you again?" Ye Lang finally remembered this incident, and as he did, he also thought of other details.
However, while Ye Lang knew this detail, as did Ye Lanyu and the other girl, the others were largely unaware. They wouldn't know that Ye Lang using the purification Alchemy Array to clean the clothes; they misunderstood him as meaning to continue licking the girl's clothes clean.
This kid is too much! He keeps taking advantage of others. Aren't you afraid of incurring public wrath and getting chopped to pieces?
The girl also misunderstood this matter. She misunderstood it a few years ago, and she continues to misunderstand it a few years later!
Enraged, the girl drew her sword. It was unclear where she drew it from, as her clothing seemed to offer no place to hide it.
The sword shot straight at Ye Lang after it appeared!
At this moment, most people hoped that this sword could cleave Ye Lang in two, allowing them to vent their anger. It was clear that Ye Lang had incurred the wrath of the masses.
Of course, some people felt that the sword should not hurt Ye Lang, but some of them were not doing it for Ye Lang's sake, but for the girl's. If the girl hurt Ye Lang, it would cause a lot of trouble.
At this moment, Ye Lang remained motionless, seemingly oblivious to the girl's sword strike!
This is perhaps because he knows that even if he doesn't move, the girl will still need to get past Ye Lanyu and the Seventh Princess, and even more so, she will need to get past his Xiao Rui!
Basically, it's impossible for this girl to reach the area where Xiao Rui is. She would definitely be knocked away by Ye Lanyu and the Seventh Princess. They wouldn't let such a dangerous being get close to Ye Lang.
Sure enough, the instant the girl attacked Ye Lang, Ye Lanyu and the Seventh Princess simultaneously unleashed their magic—defensive magic, one ice and one fire!
The ice and fire defenses surrounded Ye Lang, and surprisingly, neither the ice nor the fire weakened in the slightest due to their mutual attrition.
At that moment, the girl's sword was blocked first. She hadn't even made contact with the ice and fire defense before being blocked and unable to advance!
It was a man dressed in a white, fitted uniform, a gleaming knight's sword tightly gripped in his hand. At that moment, the man was making a very cool move, leaning forward slightly and raising his knight's sword in one hand...
This seems to be the cool pose he left behind when he used his knight's sword to deflect the girl's sword!
Everyone seems to have seen this white, fitted uniform before, even Ye Lang has seen it. It's the uniform unique to the Knights of Light, and the knight's sword also seems to be the standard sword of the Knights Order.
Most noticeably, the man was wearing a badge, a badge unique to the Knights of Light. In this Holy City, no one but the Knights of Light would possess it.
Therefore, the man's identity is obvious: he is the Knights of Light that Ye Lang called out earlier!
At the same time, everyone present could be certain of one thing: this Knights of Light was not an ordinary Knights of Light, but a high-ranking member!
Just now, during the blocking action, this Knights of Light demonstrated some of his strength, easily deflecting the girl's furious attack. This made it clear to everyone that his strength was not simple!
Putting that aside, his sudden, unannounced appearance alone demonstrates his considerable strength!
"Private battles are prohibited here. Please respect yourselves!" the Knights of Light said calmly, which also revealed the reason why he had just stopped them. He was not biased towards Ye Lang, but simply because private battles were not allowed in the inner city of the Holy City.
As the Knights of Light spoke, Ye Lanyu and the other girl withdrew their ice and fire. They knew that the Knights of Light's words were not only for the young girl, but also for the two of them.
Since the Knights of Light were already there, they didn't need to build this defense, so they quickly gave up!
Seeing that the three women had "ceased hostilities," the Knights of Light asked, "Excuse me, what exactly happened? What's going on?"
The Knights of Light spoke in a neither humble nor arrogant tone, without giving anyone any sense of specialness. His question was also very clear. Of course, he was not asking why the girl attacked Ye Lang. He was asking why the palace in front of him had collapsed.
"You mentioned the palace's collapse. It was destroyed by someone using Alchemy Array! I don't know what their intentions were, destroying our home. They seem completely unrepentant. Lord Knights of Light, don't you think such a person should be punished?!"
These words did not come from the girl's mouth. She did not intend to hand Ye Lang over to the Knights of Light for punishment. It was not that she was reluctant to do so, but that she wanted to do it herself and not rely on anyone else.
The people who said these words were naturally those whom Ye Lang had offended. They were filled with righteous indignation towards Ye Lang, and were practically ready to rush up and attack him!
"Who dares to be so bold? Tell me who it is, and I'll make sure they know what's coming!" The Knights of Light frowned, looking somewhat displeased.
This statement excited many people present, as it was undoubtedly good news for them!
Kid, let's see how arrogant you are now. Didn't you just say you were going to get the Sword of Knights of Light? Now that he's here, why are you so quiet? Huh, what's he doing?
At this moment, everyone seemed to notice that Ye Lang was yawning, eating sunflower seeds, and looking a little drowsy...
This was definitely not a sign of fear. Did he not feel any fear of the Knights of Light? Everyone was puzzled.
"It's him..." The crowd hesitated for a moment, then pointed out Ye Lang. They wanted to see how Ye Lang would face the Knights of Light.
Just as the Knights of Light was about to turn around, a number of people rushed in from all directions. They seemed to be Knights of Light or Knights of Light Guard, all belonging to the Holy City.
"Greetings, Lord Fengxing!"
"Lord Fengxing, what are you doing here?"
