At this moment, back on the battlefield, Princess Minmin was seen in the air, and then she used the third move of the Azure City Swordplay, "White Crane in the Clouds". Princess Minmin poured three hundred years of Inner Force into the sword, and a white mist immediately spread out in the air.
Suddenly, twenty sword energies shot out from the white mist, transforming into sword energies that flew towards Li Changfeng at lightning speed, their speed extremely fast and their movements both Yin Softness and cold!
Li Changfeng was shocked to see this. He did not expect that Princess Minmin would use such powerful sword techniques in the air. Moreover, the sword technique used was the unique sword technique of the Azure City Sect, which was much more powerful than Yu Yingfan of the Azure City Sect!
Then, Li Changfeng gritted his teeth and used the first move of the Shaolin Dragon Grasp, "Retrieving Objects from Afar." Li Changfeng's hands stirred up a domineering pale golden true energy, which condensed into a pale golden dragon claw fifty feet in size.
Suddenly, he grabbed a large stone slab that had been cleaved by the sword energy and used it to block Princess Minmin's Yin Softness yet fierce sword technique!
"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!"...
A series of violent explosions rang out as sword-qi cranes crashed wildly into the stone slab, which was several dozen feet in size, shattering it into pieces. Taking advantage of this moment, Li Changfeng leaped up and dodged the fierce and domineering attack!
Then, in mid-air, he suddenly unleashed the third move of the [Vajra Palm of Immense Strength], "Vajra Body Empowerment." A domineering and fierce pale golden true energy slowly condensed around his body, a demon-subduing halo appeared on his arms, and a 55-foot-tall Vajra phantom appeared behind him.
Then, the 55-zhang-tall Vajra phantom attached itself directly to Li Changfeng, immediately emitting a dazzling light, its entire body turning golden-bronze, and faint illusory runes appeared.
Suddenly, a golden palm, fifty feet long, was unleashed, violently striking Princess Minmin with overwhelming power!
Princess Minmin was furious when she saw the familiar palm technique. She unleashed the third move of the Great Songyang Divine Palm, "Jade Dragon from Beyond the Heavens." A stream of Yin Softness yet powerful true energy gathered in her palm and she suddenly struck out a white jade palm that was fifty feet long.
This fifty-foot-long white jade palm, with a white jade dragon faintly carved in the center, suddenly clashed head-on with Li Changfeng's fierce and domineering fifty-foot-long golden palm!
"Boom!"
A deafening explosion rang out as Li Changfeng's golden palm collided head-on with Princess Minmin's white jade palm, instantly unleashing an extremely violent shockwave in the air. A shockwave shot out through the air, causing a fierce wind to rise in the sky, its power terrifying!
Li Changfeng was suddenly blasted away by a palm strike, crashing into the ground and shattering the hard floor. He coughed up blood, clearly injured!
Princess Minmin herself was also not in good shape. She was knocked to the ground by the fierce and domineering palm force, staggered back seven or eight steps, and blood flowed from the corner of her mouth. She was also slightly injured, but her condition was much better than Li Changfeng's.
Li Changfeng slowly climbed out of the pile of stones. He had no external injuries, not even bruises. However, he was once again shaken by a Yin Softness and cold internal energy, which made him spit out some bright red ice shards.
He then sat down and slowly forced out the Yin Softness and cold power, which made his pale face look a little better.
Princess Minmin directly extinguished the domineering and fierce true energy within her body, glaring at Li Changfeng with a furious expression, "Who exactly are you! How do you know Shaolin Temple martial arts!"
Li Changfeng smiled bitterly upon hearing this. Seeing Princess Minmin's furious state, he dared not provoke her further, otherwise he would be killed with a single blow in a matter of minutes!
He could only brazenly reply, "My name is Li Xiaoyao! By sheer chance, I obtained the relic of Shaolin monk, which is why I possess such strength!"
Princess Minmin narrowed her eyes. "Really?"
"Absolutely true! Even pearls aren't this real!"
Princess Minmin then thought about it carefully, "If that little monk was disguised, I couldn't possibly not have noticed. His behavior and mannerisms don't seem to match that of a little monk either! It seems it must be true!"
"You little brat! Do you admit defeat or not?!"
Li Changfeng's face was filled with bitterness upon hearing this. "I am completely convinced! I have indeed lost to Princess Minmin!"
"Hmph! You're not bad, kid! To be able to fight me like this at your age is rare indeed. I'll give you a chance to become my bodyguard!"
After thinking about it, Li Changfeng decided to agree to her request for now and explain it to her in detail later when he had the chance.
"I am willing to become Princess Minmin's bodyguard!"
Princess Minmin smiled enchantingly. "Alright! You may leave and rest for a while. Come to the Princess Manor to see me tomorrow. I have something to discuss with you!"
"I obey!"
The Wind and Rain Pavilion.
At this moment, a scholar in white robes sat at the table, sipping wine and reading a book, looking quite content. "Has anything major happened recently?"
A black figure suddenly appeared before the scholar, kneeling on one knee. "Reporting to the Master! Nothing major has happened. It's just that the Three Evil Sects in Southern Province have made a comeback, and what they've done is nothing more than minor skirmishes!"
"Hmm? The Three Evil Sects? That's a formidable organization! You underestimate them too much. Back then, it took the combined efforts of Daoism and Buddhism and the entire martial arts world to wipe them out. Now that they've risen from the ashes, you all need to keep a close eye on them, understand?"
"Understood! But do these Three Evil Sects still possess such strength? So many years have passed, how could they possibly rise from the ashes?"
"The fact that they chose to emerge from seclusion now means they have the strength to contend with both Daoism and Buddhism. You should send more people to Southern Province to observe them closely!"
The black-clad figure's expression turned grave upon hearing this. "Yes, sir! I will send more brothers to investigate thoroughly over there!"
"Is there anything else? If not, you may leave."
"Oh yes! There's one more thing. A young prodigy has emerged in Southern Province. He single-handedly defeated nine young talents from the nine major sects and won the Martial Arts Tournament for Marriage to find a husband!"
"Oh? It's rare to see such a promising young man from Southern Province. What's his ranking? What's his name?"
"His name is Li Xiaoyao, he calls himself Carefree Young Master, and he is ranked 86th on the Human Rankings!"
"Carefree Young Master! What an interesting name. What is this person's background?"
"This man's origins are mysterious. We can't find any trace of his past. We only know that he is proficient in Shaolin martial arts, and his swordsmanship resembles the long-lost superior swordsmanship of the Diancang Sect, the 'Returning Dragon Eighteen Swords'!"
"So mysterious? Then keep a close eye on this kid! If there's nothing else, you may leave!"
"I obey!"
"The Three Evil Sects have chosen to emerge at this time. Do they intend to rise again in that matter?"
"Forget it! There's no point in thinking about it! Even if the sky falls, there's always a tall guy to hold it up. I'll just ignore it. That old man from Central Province probably already knew this!"
