Murong Fu has clearly been quite active this past month.
He coveted Ling Yi's abilities, whether it was due to treasures or powerful inheritance.
If he possessed Ling Yi's ability to Infinite Summoning of Death Warriors, then let alone restoring his kingdom, in Murong Fu's view, he could easily Sweep the world.
Originally, Murong Fu was wary of Ling Yi Ling Yi and dared not make a move against him.
However, after using the identities of Wang Yuyan and A Zhu to enter the capital of Dali, and then encountering Jiumozhi causing trouble, they eventually cooperated to take over the capital of the Dali Kingdom.
Murong Fu's ambitions became uncontrollable.
This led to the siege of the manor, intended to threaten Ling Yi Ling Yi obtain his inheritance.
In fact, the best course of action would be to capture Yaoyue, Lianxing, and the other women, and control them as bargaining chips in a deal with Ling Yi.
However, the strength of Yaoyue and Lianxing exceeded his expectations.
If it weren't for joining forces with Jiumozhi, how could they have trapped those two women?
Even if we have siege crossbows, it won't work.
As for Jiumozhi, he had long heard of Ling Yi. Since Murong Fu Murong Fu Ling Yi's inheritance, Jiumozhi naturally coveted it as well.
The two hit it off immediately and became accomplices in their evil deeds.
But now, a month has passed, and Ling Yi has not emerged from the ice cave. Murong Fu and Jiumozhi both believe that Ling Yi has died in the ice cave.
"Master, please help me capture Yaoyue and Lianxing," Murong Fu said.
Jiumozhi clearly didn't want to waste any more time there and turned to leave.
Murong Fu, however, calmly replied, "Isn't Master curious about the Mingyu Gong of the Flower Transferring Palace?"
"Those two women are very strong; this humble monk is no match for them."
"As long as the master can maneuver for a moment, with the support of siege crossbows, Yaoyue inevitably hesitate to act rashly."
"With the master holding off the two, I'll storm the manor, capture the other women, and then Yaoyue Lianxing will be forced to surrender."
After some deliberation, Jiumozhi concluded that there was indeed a considerable opportunity.
"If it cannot be done, Master, you may leave at any time," Murong Fu added.
"Alright!" Jiumozhi nodded in agreement.
Murong Fu sneered inwardly. This Jiumozhi was indeed quite strong, Late Master.
But ultimately, he was a bit too arrogant.
The Jianghu is a dangerous place!
Murong Fu wasn't just to win over Yaoyue and the other women; he also wanted to eliminate Jiumozhi.
He had long coveted the power of Jiumozhi, Yaoyue, and Lianxing!
"Pass down the order to attack the manor. The arrows shall not cease until I give the order to stop!" Murong Fu raised the military tally and shouted to a general below the platform.
"Yes, Prince Yan!"
The title of Prince of Yan was casually bestowed upon Murong Fu by Duan Zhengchun; it was a title without any real power.
Murong Fu came from Swallow Cove, but he can't exactly be called the King of Yanzi, can he?
So, out of consideration for his own daughter, Duan Zhengchun casually bestowed upon her the title of Prince of Yan.
Of course, Duan Zhengchun also intended to win over Murong Fu.
Although Murong Fu was a complete scoundrel, he still had a very high reputation in the Jianghu.
Little did anyone expect that Duan Zhengchun's actions would be like inviting a wolf into the house.
What happened in the Dali Kingdom's court was unknown to outsiders.
Murong Fu handled the situation very cautiously.
He knew very well that once news of what happened in the palace got out, the Dali Kingdom would inevitably descend into chaos.
What he needed was a stable Dali Kingdom, not a chaotic Dali Kingdom.
Murong Fu already had a plan for what to do next.
After absorbing the power of Jiumozhi, Yaoyue, Lianxing, and others, he Disguise as Duan Zhengchun and gradually handed over power to the Prince of Yan in Duan Zhengchun's name.
In this process, all he, the Prince of Yan, needed to do was gain more public prestige and damage Duan Zhengchun's reputation.
When the time is right, one can seize the opportunity and usurp the throne.
As Murong Fu watched the arrows flying into the manor, he imagined his dream of ascending to the throne and unifying all the kingdoms.
He couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Meanwhile, inside the manor, Yaoyue, Lianxing, and the others hid in their rooms, avoiding the overwhelming barrage of arrows.
"Sister Yaoyue, Sister Lianxing, you should find a chance to leave. There's no need to stay and throw your lives away. We only hope that if you two have the opportunity in the future, you can help us kill Murong Fu."
A Zhu said to Yaoyue.
Yaoyue shattered several arrows that had been shot into the room with a single palm strike, and said coldly, "No need for further words, everyone take cover!"
Can Yaoyue and Lianxing escape?
They can escape. Even with siege crossbows and the Tibetan monk Jiumozhi, if they can leave, nothing can stop them.
After spending so many days together, Yaoyue and Lianxing had long since come to regard Huang Rong as their younger sister.
Having escaped like this, they will likely live with unease for the Yu Sheng.
Moreover, if they escaped, how would they explain it to Ling Yi?
As for Wang Yuyan and the others, Yaoyue was just an afterthought.
If things truly become unmanageable, they will only take Huang Rong with them.
Arrows flew into the manor in volleys, and arrows kept flying in every now and then.
But these are all things that Yaoyue and Lianxing can easily handle.
Just then, Yaoyue suddenly felt a strong sense of crisis.
She instinctively Teleportation her body to the side.
But it was too late.
A two-meter-long crossbow bolt, comparable to a spear, pierced through the door and flew into the room with a Air Breaking sound.
Amidst the horrified gazes of the crowd, the bullet struck Yaoyue's shoulder.
However, to everyone's surprise...
The siege crossbow bolt, after striking Yaoyue's shoulder, seemed to lose all its momentum and fell to the ground with a thud.
"Sister, are you alright?" Lianxing waved away a few ordinary arrows and rushed over to ask worriedly.
Yaoyue shook her head, looked at her shoulder, and then at the siege crossbow bolt lying on the ground.
Suddenly, something occurred to him, and then, amidst the gasps of the women, he opened the door and went out.
"Sister!"
"Sister Yaoyue!"
The girls gasped in surprise.
As for Yaoyue, she no longer resisted the incoming arrows as before, but let them hit her.
As before, the arrows fell to the ground as if they had lost their momentum after making contact with the Yaoyue.
Yaoyue became increasingly certain of her hypothesis.
"Wow, Sister Yaoyue, could it be that we have Invincible Defense like Brother Yi?!" Huang Rong exclaimed in surprise.
Huang Rong was all too familiar with this scene.
Isn't this how Ling Yi always looks when he's attacked?
With that, he ran out of the room.
He let several arrows fall on him, and sure enough, he was unharmed.
Not only that, but they couldn't Perception the slightest pain.
A smile crept across Yaoyue's lips, followed by a cold laugh, " Lianxing, come with me to battle and annihilate Jiumozhi and Murong Fu."
Yaoyue guessed that Ling Yi must have used some kind of magic on them before he left.
But she wasn't sure how long this would last.
Therefore, she should use this period of invincible defense to kill Jiumozhi and Murong Fu, and the crisis in the manor will naturally be resolved.
Yaoyue and Lianxing, braving the barrage of arrows, leaped into the air, using the arrows as leverage to propel themselves backward.
"Kill all these archers, I'll deal with Murong Fu," Yaoyue to Lianxing.
"Sister, be careful!" Lianxing said.
These archers pose too great a threat to Huang Rong and her companions; they must be eliminated.
Now with Invincible Defense, Lianxing's attacks became more powerful and unrestrained. She wielded her longsword, her True Yuan crisscrossing, Daodao Sword Qi composed of True Yuan flew everywhere.
Archers fell in droves, as if Wushuang had been unleashed.
The sight of Yaoyue and the other two flying up with arrows on their heads truly frightened Murong Fu and Jiumozhi.
"This defense... it looks so similar to Ling Yi's Invincible Defense?" Murong Fu murmured.
Although he had never seen Ling Yi Combat.
However, I've also heard that Ling Yi's defense Wushuang.
Could it be that Yaoyue and Lianxing have also learned Ling Yi's methods?
Murong Fu could think of it, Jiumozhi could naturally think of it as well.
There was no way around it; Ling Yi's reputation was simply too great. After a month of fermentation, it had already spread Jianghu of various countries.
It would be hard for them not to know.
But this only made their gazes burn even hotter.
Ling Yi "dead," but obtaining this technique from Yaoyue and Lianxing would still be a huge gain.
The two approached Yaoyue almost simultaneously.
Jiumozhi unleashed a Huoyan Blade Technique, creating a line of fire that attacked Yaoyue.
But Murong Fu did something rather strange; he simply used his Qinggong to rush towards Yaoyue.
The two faced off directly in mid-air.
Yaoyue struck at Murong Fu with a palm strike, but Murong Fu neither dodged nor evaded, instead raising his hand to meet Yaoyue's palm, which was almost as if it had turned to jade.
"Haha, Moon Palace, your cultivation techniques and power are now mine..."
Before he could finish speaking, their palms met.
"Snap!"
The sound of bones cracking rang out, followed by Murong Fu's scream of agony.
"Ah, impossible! Why is the Northern Darkness Divine Art ineffective against you?"
Murong Fu was sent flying like a cannonball by Yaoyue's palm strike, crashing to the ground and vomiting blood.
Murong Fu knows the Northern Darkness Divine Art?
Yes, it will!
This Northern Darkness Divine Art was naturally obtained from Duan Yu.
In retrospect, Murong Fu was just lucky.
At that time, Murong Fu threatened the lives of Wang Yuyan, A Zhu, and other women, saying that as long as Duan Yu handed over a martial arts technique, he would spare their lives.
Duan Yu saved Wang Yuyan with the One Yang Finger Duan Yu, saved A Zhu with the Six Meridian Divine Sword, and later saved A Bi with the Northern Darkness Divine Art.
Murong Fu's acquisition of the Northern Darkness Divine Art was purely by luck.
Murong Fu was ruthless enough that after learning the power of the Northern Darkness Divine Art, he directly crippled his own True Yuan and started cultivating it anew.
Furthermore, with the combined strength of the Duan family's experts, they quickly recovered their cultivation and Dawei progress.
Those who knew that Murong Fu knew the Northern Darkness Divine Art were all already dead.
Yes, Duan Yu is dead, Duan Zhengchun is dead, and almost all the powerful members of the Dali Duan family are dead.
Duan Yu, on his deathbed, was filled with regret. He had only learned the Six Meridian Divine Sword, One Yang Finger, and Graceful Steps upon the Waves.
Duan Yu stopped practicing the Northern Darkness Divine Art because Duan Yu felt it was too evil, and even destroyed the original version.
Fortunately, Graceful Steps upon the Waves is not only a Qinggong, but also a technique for increasing Internal Energy.
Otherwise, he might not even have the chance to unleash his full potential.
