Chapter 153
A cold glint flashed in Dragon Tiger True Person's eyes. He did not continue to kill, but instead turned his gaze to Xiao Minghuang.
"Little girl, I'll give you a chance."
What opportunity?
"Join the Beast Taming Sect and become my personal disciple!"
"... I need to think about it!" Xiao Minghuang's expression was calm, as if she were genuinely considering it.
Upon hearing this, Dragon Tiger True Person's lips curled into a slight smile. No matter what tricks this little girl wanted to pull, she couldn't escape his grasp.
The Beast Taming Sect lost Xue Wushang, but if they could acquire Xiao Minghuang, they could make up for all their losses.
Or rather, even ten Xue Wushang be as good as one Xiao Minghuang!
Their talents and temperaments are incomparable!
As for how to control this cunning little girl, let the Old Devil of the Southern Wilderness worry about that!
On the ground.
Xiao Minghuang calmed herself down. The reason she didn't immediately refuse Dragon Tiger True Person was simply to buy time. Once the Sect Master the Spirit Sword Sect arrived, she would be safe.
Looking at Xiao Minghuang, who remained silent for a long time, Dragon Tiger True Person felt a sense of foreboding.
"Little girl, give me an answer within three breaths!"
However, at this moment, Xiao Minghuang suddenly looked up, a bright smile appearing on her face. It was as if a huge weight had been lifted from her heart, and for a moment, it was as if withered trees had come back to life and a hundred flowers had bloomed.
She spoke loudly:
"Dragon Tiger True Person, I refuse your terms!"
At this moment, Dragon Tiger True Person had no time to pay attention to Xiao Minghuang.
There is no other reason.
In the distance, a dazzling sword light streaked across the sky.
It cut through the air as it came, leaving deep and shallow marks in its wake, as if it had been cleaved by a blade.
The dazzling sword light approached with unstoppable force, growing ever closer, and arrived in an instant, slashing fiercely at him!
"Not good!"
Dragon Tiger True Person's expression changed drastically, and he quickly dodged.
But the sword light was too fast, and he had no time to dodge it!
We have no choice but to tough it out!
With a deafening roar, the entire space seemed to be torn apart, a visible ripple spread outwards, surrounding trees snapped, and the earth trembled violently.
Huge cracks, like a spider web, spread rapidly outwards.
The dust has settled.
A figure slowly rose from the ruins. He was covered in dust, and his clothes were torn in several places, but he was not injured at all, just a little disheveled.
Dragon Tiger True Person stared intently at the white-clad figure in the sky, his expression extremely solemn.
"Primordial Embryo Stage Three, Major Accomplishment of Sword Intent!"
In the sky, a woman in white stood holding a sword, her white dress fluttering and her long hair dancing in the wind, like a celestial maiden.
A faint glint of sword light flickered in those beautiful eyes, making Dragon Tiger True Person feel extremely dangerous.
Deep within Dragon Tiger True Person's eyes, a profound sense of apprehension and fear was revealed!
He never imagined that the girl who had just entered the Primal Embryo Realm thirty years ago would become so powerful!
At this moment, Sheng Bailan, the Sect Master the Spirit Sword Sect, turned her beautiful eyes to look at the blazing golden light on the ground, and slowly spoke, her voice carrying a hint of coldness.
"Dragon Tiger True Person, I have protected the Xia Kingdom's princess. Do you have anything else to say?"
"Snort!"
Dragon Tiger True Person didn't say much, but gave Xiao Minghuang one last deep look with icy eyes before turning and leaving.
Sheng Bailan watched Dragon Tiger True Person leave, the sword-like edge in her eyes softening as it fell to the ground.
Xiao Minghuang stepped forward, but before she could speak, she was interrupted.
"So you are the princess of Xia Kingdom? Would you mind sparring with me in swordsmanship?"
Xiao Minghuang frowned.
What does this have to do with anything?
But how could she refuse her savior, especially one with such immense power?
It was just a friendly exchange of sword intent; nothing serious.
"Since you are so kind, senior, I am honored!"
Xiao Minghuang bowed slightly and spoke respectfully.
Xiao Minghuang nodded and said.
Upon hearing this, Sheng Bailan's lips curled up slightly, her eyes narrowed, and a smile appeared on her face.
Since she comprehended the Major Accomplishment of Sword Intent, she has not encountered anyone who can verify the Way of the Sword with her for a long time.
The girl before me, though young, had already grasped the essence of Major Accomplishment intent at such a young age.
Such a person is destined to soar to great heights in the future.
"In that case, come with me!"
She then looked at the people of Xia Kingdom.
"Your princess, lend me your princess for a few days."
He finished speaking.
Sheng Bailan grabbed Xiao Minghuang's hand, then soared into the air and disappeared into the horizon, leaving behind a crowd of astonished onlookers.

"What... what's going on?"
The remaining people looked at each other in bewilderment.
"Is that the Sect Master of the Spirit Sword Sect? Why did she suddenly take His Highness away?"
Lin Wanqiu asked, puzzled.
Everyone turned their attention to Elder Xuanjian.
Here, he is the person in charge of the Spirit Sword Sect.
Elder Xuanjian also looked embarrassed. He knew that the Sect Master was devoted to the sword path and had a pure heart, but she was too eager and didn't even greet them before taking the young girl away.
He still needs to explain this mess properly.
"Everyone need not worry. The Sect Master merely invited Princess Xiao to the Spirit Sword Sect as a guest to exchange ideas on swordsmanship. There is no danger."
At this point, he added:
"The Sect Master has comprehended the Major Accomplishment Perfection of Sword Intent and is a powerful expert at the Nascent Embryo Triple Realm. Princess Xiao's ability to exchange cultivation insights with the Sect Master can only bring benefits, not harm. Everyone can rest assured."
At this point, everyone finally felt a little relieved.
But Ye Ruoshui still harbored resentment and said to Lin Wanqiu:
"Sister Lin, I want to go to the Spirit Sword Sect to find His Highness."
Upon hearing this, Lin Wanqiu pondered for a moment, "Yes, but I'll ask Senior Medicine King when I get back if I can go with you."
She was worried about letting Ye Ruoshui travel alone.
Ye Ruoshui naturally had no objection to this.
A few days ago, the Medicine King taught her alchemy, and the two became both teacher and friend, a true friendship despite their age difference.
In the sky.
The Beast Taming Sect Master, who had just arrived, looked embarrassed.
When he arrived, Sheng Bailan had already made a powerful entrance, suppressing Dragon Tiger True Person with a single sword strike.
Now that Sheng Bailan and the Xia Kingdom princess have both left, should he go back too?
At this moment, an elder of the Beast Taming Sect offered a suggestion:
"Sect Master, why not stay and forge a good relationship with the people of Xia? Although the Xia princess has left, her relatives are all here."
"Good!"
The Beast Taming Sect immediately descended from the sky and arrived before the crowd.
Upon seeing the appearance of an unfamiliar elderly man, everyone looked puzzled.
Only the Old Ancestor had met the Beast Taming Sect, and stepped forward, cupping his hands in greeting:
"What brings the Beast Taming Sect here?"
Upon hearing this, the Beast Taming Sect chuckled and said with an air of authority:
"I've heard that old Dragon Tiger True Person bullies the weak. I can't stand people like that, so I rushed here... Where is that old Dragon Tiger True Person? Let me, the sect master, teach him a lesson!"
Upon hearing this, everyone's faces lit up with joy.
It turned out that both the Spirit Sword Sect and the Beast Taming Sect were on their side.
"Senior, you're too late. Sect Master Sheng has already defeated Dragon Tiger True Person and is heading to the Spirit Sword Sect with my daughter."
Emperor Xia responded.
"Oh... I see..."
The Beast Taming Sect laughed heartily.
"Senior, if you don't mind, would you be willing to visit Xiadu as a guest, so that I can fulfill my duty as a host?"
That's exactly what I've been waiting to hear!
The Beast Taming Sect smiled and said:
"Fellow Daoist's hospitality is too kind of me to refuse."
After some conversation, the Xia Kingdom people brought the members of the Beast Taming Sect and the Spirit Sword Sect to the Xia capital, where they feasted for days on end.
During this time, Ye Ruoshui brought up the matter of going to the Spirit Sword Sect Elder Xuanjian.
Elder Xuanjian did not refuse and invited Ye Ruoshui to accompany him.
Spirit Sword Sect.
In a secluded and quiet courtyard.
Two ethereal figures darted back and forth in the courtyard, their Sword Qi crisscrossing and their sword blossoms dazzling.
Two figures, one in red and one in white, clashed and collided repeatedly in the courtyard, producing loud cracking sounds from time to time, indicating intense fighting.
Although he did not use any spiritual power, his sword intent alone was enough to break the branches of the trees beside him and cause the leaves to fall.
Their dresses billowed in the wind, their hems swaying in the breeze.
The two moved with unpredictable speed and lightning-fast movements, each move containing endless mysteries, their Sword Qi sharp and fierce.
The two fought fiercely, neither gaining the upper hand.
Fifteen minutes later.
The two figures finally stopped fighting.
Two figures, one in red and one in white, stood facing each other.
"Princess Xiao, you are indeed very strong. Without using spiritual power, and relying solely on sword intent, you were able to fight me to a draw for over a thousand moves. You are certainly qualified to be my opponent."
