Translator: 549690339

In just a short moment of breath, hundreds more fell to their deaths.

Lan Cai’er plunged into the army formation without bothering with the ordinary soldiers, aiming in one direction and rushing forward with all her might.

Along the way, any soldier who tried to stop her had their lives snatched away by the colorful smoke.

Five Poison Sect’s Ten Thousand Poison True Qi was best suited for group battles.

Previously, Lan Cai’er was suppressed by an attack from far away, giving her opponents the advantage.

At this moment, amongst the crowd, she was like a fish in water, unstoppable in her advancement.

In just a short span of a dozen breaths, she had broken through three army formations, killing hundreds of soldiers and reaching the edge of the battlefield.

However, killing so many people at once took its toll on the Ten Thousand Poison True Qi.

Added to her constant weakening before, Lan Cai’er’s colorful smoke around her body had dimmed to its extreme, turning transparent.

Even the smoke band around her body had become tattered and seemed ready to shatter at any moment.

Clearly, under the continuous consumption of the fierce battles, the Holy Maiden’s True Qi had been almost depleted and could barely maintain her anymore.

However, at this moment, there were not many imperial soldiers around her, which gave her a slight sense of relief.

But this little relaxation didn’t last long.

When Lan Cai’er fled just now, Yan Wangqiu had reacted swiftly and chased after her immediately.

However, during the chase, he saw that Lu Yuan and the many soldiers and officers had already intercepted Lan Cai’er, so he didn’t continue to take action.

Instead, he hid on the side, quietly waiting for an opportunity.

Now, seeing that Lan Cai’er’s True Qi was exhausted, he knew that the opportunity he had been waiting for had arrived.

Thus, seeing Lan Cai’er about to escape from the encirclement, Yan Wangqiu didn’t hesitate any longer and immediately flew out from the soldiers’ crowd, raising his hand for a sharp sword strike, assassinating her with roaring waves.

An assassination attempt by an Inborn Grandmaster was naturally extraordinary in its power.

The rich killing intent almost caused the air to stagnate.

Lan Cai’er felt the fatally perilous threat almost instantly.

Without even thinking, she raised her hand and a red light flew out, while the remaining True Qi in her body was desperately gathered in front of her, rushing towards the incoming sword.

Yan Wangqiu’s flying immortal sword arrived in front of Lan Cai’er in an instant.

But before he could kill her with a single sword strike, he suddenly felt a wave of danger.

Seeing the red light coming before his eyes, he immediately sensed a huge threat and his expression slightly changed.

The Old Lord didn’t dare to be careless, so he converged his True Qi to deal with the red light. However, his long sword’s momentum didn’t decrease, and still stabbed towards Lan Cai’er.

However, this slight delay gave Lan Cai Er a chance to catch her breath, rendering the originally fatal sword ineffective.

As a result, the Holy Maiden swayed a little to avoid the sword that was originally aimed at her chest. The sword instead passed through her shoulder, drawing a spray of blood.

Although it was a serious injury, her life was ultimately saved.

On the other hand, Yan Wangqiu, who had stabbed Lan Cai’er, couldn’t continue the attack.

It turned out that the red light that flew towards him actually had the ability to consume True Qi.

Yan Wangqiu’s True Qi, originally used for blocking, was effortlessly pierced by the red light, and then it came charging towards him.

It was only at this moment that he could finally see that the red light was actually a hair-thin insect.

This insect’s origins were unknown, but not only could it fly, it wasn’t affected by True Qi and was extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, it was in front of Yan Wangqiu.

Such a variable instantly terrified him.

At this moment, he couldn’t care less about continuing to assassinate Lan Cai’er, focusing all his energy on dealing with the red light insect.

However, Yan Wangqiu had learned from the previous encounter and didn’t use his Inner Strength to block directly.

Instead, he severed his sleeve and reinforced it with True Qi, turning it into countless chaotic blades, slashing towards the insect.

As he expected, facing a direct physical attack, the insect no longer dared to be as arrogant as before. Instead, it evaded in fear.

However, after only a few attempts to dodge, it was found to have a flaw by Yan Wangqiu. Having been impaled by the blades, it was minced into several segments.

After eliminating the insect, the Old Lord turned his head to look in front of him. At this point, the figure of the Five Poison Demoness was long gone, and it was unknown where she had escaped to.

“Demoness, damnable!”

Thinking that as a distinguished Old Lord, he still let a younger generation escape under such advantageous circumstances, Yan Wangqiu’s face turned red with anger, and he cursed angrily.

However, after cursing for a while, since the person was gone, there was no way for him to catch her again.

Helpless, he could only return to report to Lu Yuan.

“This old man is ashamed, actually being fooled by a junior.” Yan Wangqiu immediately apologized upon seeing Lu Yuan: “I failed the trust of General this time.”

Lu Yuan didn’t expect that Lan Cai’er could escape even at this point.

However, he had seen Yan Wangqiu’s exchange with her earlier, so he knew that it wasn’t the Old Lord’s fault.

Moreover, the opponent was an Inborn Grandmaster and a national teacher, with rank and status equal to his own.

This time, he entered his army only with orders to protect him, and Lu Yuan had no control over him.

Therefore, even though he was somewhat disappointed with the Old Lord, he still pacified him, “The Old Lord has done his best. The Demoness is cunning, and the Five Poison Sect is adept at using Gu insects, which allowed her to escape.

Although she managed to escape surprisingly this time, let’s make preparations for the next time and besiege her again.”

However, although he said this, when Lu Yuan thought of the many subordinates killed by Lan Cai’er just now, his heart still bled.

It was only a brief exchange, not even half a day’s time.

But the soldiers who died in the hands of Lan Cai’er had already reached seven or eight hundred.

Among those seven or eight hundred, nearly half were Lu Yuan’s personal guards.

Losing so many elite soldiers at once, how could he not be heartbroken?

Yan Wangqiu also knew that he was in the wrong, so seeing Lu Yuan’s depressed expression, he hurried to comfort, “General, although I failed to kill that Demoness, she was injured by my sword containing Ten Thousand Waves Profound Intent.

With such a heavy injury, she will not make a full recovery in a year and a half.

This time in the battle, we can rest assured that their Grandmaster will not take action.”

For a Grandmaster, ordinary flesh and blood injuries were not a big deal. With a Grandmaster’s Inner Strength and vitality, it would take only some time to heal.

However, if the injury was inflicted with Martial Dao True Intent, even Grandmasters would not be able to heal until the Martial Dao within their wounds was dispelled.

Yan Wangqiu, a hundred-year-old Grandmaster, had condensed his Ten Thousand Waves Profound Intent to its purest form.

He considered that, with the Demoness’ cultivation, it would take at least a year and a half for her to dispel his True Intent.

This was the confidence of an Old Lord.
