Starting as the young master of a medicine shop, he practiced swordsmanship for twenty years.

Chapter 363 No More Concealment! Slaughter!
"My father is truly... quite interesting!"

Lu Xuan stood with his hands behind his back in front of the dilapidated town gate of Qianfu Town, a mocking smile playing on his lips.

He pointed to the paper lanterns in the town that moved automatically without wind, his voice carrying a chilling undertone.

"Such obvious ghostly activity, yet I, as the crown prince, am forced to personally venture into such perilous territory..."

Lu Xuan suddenly chuckled, "Could it be that he's... getting senile?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the armor of the three imperial guards behind Lu Xuan simultaneously emitted a screeching sound.

The sound of gears turning came from under Lu Yi's visor, Lu Er's hands were on the hilt of his sword, and Lu San's breathing suddenly became heavy.

These cold killing machines, at this moment, showed emotional fluctuations that only humans could have because of Lu Xuan's words.

"Your Highness..."

Lu Yi's voice was extremely cold: "Please watch your words... otherwise..."

"Don't blame us for being rude!"

In an instant, the entire world fell silent.

Before Lu Yi and his two companions could make a move, a blinding golden light swept over them like a tidal wave.

Their pupils, hidden beneath their black iron masks, suddenly contracted, reflecting the most shocking sight of their lives.

Hundreds of golden dragon phantoms rose from behind Lu Xuan, intertwining and swirling in the void.

Each dragon scale shimmered with golden light, and the dragon whiskers stirred up gusts of wind as they danced.

The sacred and majestic dragon's might seemed tangible, pressing down on the three imperial guards, causing their iron armor to creak and their knees to bend uncontrollably.

"This...this is..."

Lu Yi's indifferent and ruthless voice completely changed tone.

The imperial majesty they revered as divine was like a firefly compared to the bright moon before such a majestic dragon.

The golden light scattering from the swirling dragon shadows illuminated the entire eerie street of Qianfu Town as if it were daytime.

Even more terrifying was that, with each blink of the dragon's eyes, Lu Yi and his companions had the unsettling feeling of being stared at by a prehistoric beast...

At the same time, a crack suddenly appeared in the masks worn by the three of them, revealing pale, paper-white faces underneath.

This was the first time since Lu Yi and the other two became Emperor Wenjing's guards that they had shown human fear.

Martial Arts Grandmaster!
Those hundreds of golden dragon phantoms were actually formed from the profound inner energy of a martial arts grandmaster.

If it were an ordinary martial arts grandmaster, Lu Yi and his two companions wouldn't take him seriously.

Because they are also beginners in martial arts grandmasters.

Unfortunately, Lu Xuan was not an ordinary martial arts grandmaster.

Instead, he was a martial arts grandmaster who had cultivated the most supreme royal family techniques of the Wenjing Dynasty.

"Nine Dragons Protection Scripture!"

"Grandmaster of Martial Arts!"

The combination of these two factors is not as simple as one plus one.

Lu Xuan stood with his hands behind his back, radiating an oppressive aura that made Lu Yi and the other two feel suffocated.

The grandmaster of martial arts unleashed his full aura, showing signs of breaking through to the peak.

He gave Lu Yi and the other two a cold glance, his gaze sharp as a knife.

The murderous intent contained in those eyes was self-evident.

In the face of absolute power, any surveillance or scheming is a joke.

"Humph!"

A cold snort, like a thunderclap from the heavens, erupted with immense dragon might.

Lu Yi and his two imperial guards were as if they had been punished by heaven; their armor, forged from black iron, was instantly covered with spiderweb-like cracks.

Finally, with several "crack" sounds, the fragments flew everywhere.

puff……

Lu Yi, who was in the lead, suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood and then staggered back seven steps.

With each step, the bluestone ground shattered into a crater the size of a bowl, sending fragments of stone flying everywhere.

Before the three of them could regain their footing, the sky suddenly changed color. Hundreds of golden dragon phantoms tore through the sky, swooping down with earth-shattering force.

The dragon's roar shook the heavens, and golden light shone across the eight directions; the entire bluestone road trembled under the dragon's might.

Lu Yi and his two companions looked ashen-faced. Faced with such overwhelming divine might, their martial arts cultivation, which they were so proud of, seemed utterly laughable.

Just as the dragon's shadow was about to engulf the three of them—

"Your Highness... have mercy!"

"We are His Majesty's men, the Imperial Guard of the Wenjing Dynasty!"

Lu Yi finally roared out, his voice filled with unprecedented terror.

This cold-blooded guard of Emperor Wenjing experienced the fear of death for the first time in his life...

However, Lu Yun remained calm and did not pay any attention to Lu Yi and the other two.

After seeing that their pleas for mercy were in vain, Lu Yi and the other two suddenly showed a fierce glint in their eyes.

Clang! Clang! Clang!
Three piercing sword cries rang out simultaneously.

Following this were hundreds of jet-black sword beams.

These black sword beams tore through the air, each containing terrifying power capable of cleaving mountains in two.

Wherever the black sword energy passed, even the air itself rippled violently.

however--

Hundreds of dragon roars exploded simultaneously!
Hundreds of golden dragon phantoms roared down from the sky, their dazzling golden light instantly engulfing all darkness.

Those indestructible black sword energies, like ice and snow meeting the blazing sun, melted away in the blink of an eye.

Immediately afterwards, the entire street trembled violently amidst a deafening roar.

The bluestone slabs shattered inch by inch, and the entrance to Qianfu Town trembled with a rustling sound, with tiles falling like rain.

After the golden light dissipated...
Only three shockingly large craters remained on the ground, with twisted and deformed fragments of the black iron armor scattered in them.

A few wisps of crimson blood mist still lingered in the air, proving that three living people had once existed here...

Lu Xuan indifferently withdrew his gaze, his crimson sleeves fluttering lightly.

A gentle breeze swept by, and even the last trace of blood vanished without a trace, as if the three imperial guards had never existed at all...

Lu Xuan didn't look at it again and turned to step into Qianfu Town.

As the crimson robes fluttered, the illusory golden dragons that circled around gradually disappeared, leaving behind a lingering dragon roar in the air.

At this moment, Lu Yun wanted everyone to understand.

Even the emperor of the Wenjing Dynasty could no longer point fingers at him.

"Brother, could you kick the football over to me?"

A child's voice suddenly rang out.

As soon as Lu Xuan stepped onto the stone-paved road in Qianfu Town, a ball woven from withered grass slowly rolled to his feet.

Looking up, I saw five or six children, about seven or eight years old, standing on the street corner.

They were dressed in coarse cloth, their faces were rosy, and their eyes were full of anticipation.

One of the little girls, with pigtails, shyly hid behind her companion.

They looked exactly like ordinary children from the streets.

"OK.….."

A strange smile appeared on Lu Xuan's lips, and golden light surged in his eyes.

He slowly raised his right leg, but the instant it touched the grass ball—

Roar! ! !
Several golden dragon phantoms descended from the heavens, their mouths wide open, swallowing all the "children" whole.

Amidst the piercing shriek, those innocent little faces instantly twisted and deformed, revealing their true forms of monstrous fangs.

Their bodies melted like wax figures, oozing foul-smelling black blood.

Lu Xuan took a deep breath, feeling the surging internal energy within him.

The more ghosts there were, the more excited he became.

At this moment, all the residential buildings along the street suddenly shook violently, and countless dark shadows seeped out from the gaps in the doors and windows...
