The three assassins exchanged a glance and then, without a word, attacked with murderous intent!
Hua Meixi dared not slack and drew her sword swiftly, clashing with the three assassins. The mystical aura around her grew denser.
Outside, Yao Yulou and Duanmu Chun clenched their fists tightly, their True Qi roaring up, casting cold glances at Pei Feishan and his companion.
Yao Yulou spoke, "A good strategy, but Sikong Jing saw through it."
He realized in an instant what Pei Feishan was planning.
Of course, he had long noticed that Shi'an Leader had sent information out, just not knowing what it was.
Duanmu Chun chimed in, "Clearly, you're now forced to act, but even for three assassins to capture Hua Meixi, who has just reached the Shadow Control Realm, alive is nearly impossible..."
They could clearly see Hua Meixi's situation, still handling the three Spirit Movement Realm assassins with ease.
Pei Feishan and Shi'an Leader inwardly cursed, indeed underestimating Hua Meixi's combat power. But the main issue was Sikong Jing, damn him for not falling for the trap, otherwise, they wouldn't have had to act now...
At this moment, Hua Meixi was engaged in a wild battle with the three assassins while Spiritual Shadows kept attacking her.
However, she only grew stronger as the battle raged on, the aura of her Demon Charm Battle Body surging up.
Still, she maintained the power of the Fifth Grade Battle Body with great restraint. Uncle Yao had warned her seriously that exposing the aura of a Sixth Grade level would be perilous.
Hua Meixi didn't know what the danger would be, but since Uncle Yao said so, she obeyed.
With the prohibition Uncle Yao intentionally etched upon arrival, the aura of the Sixth Grade Battle Body wouldn't easily be revealed.
However, as the battle continued, Hua Meixi suddenly felt a sense of agitation.
Especially with the constant attacks from the Spiritual Shadows, her Spirit Platform felt a bit chaotic, as though the feeling from that night was returning.
She suddenly had an urge to explode, to break through Uncle Yao's prohibition, to kill recklessly...
Outside, just as Yao Yulou, who was confident in Hua Meixi, suddenly widened his eyes and cursed inwardly, "Damn it!"
He could clearly sense Hua Meixi's state at that moment.
Though it wasn't to the extent of bursting into the Evil Charm Holy Body, even revealing the Sixth Grade Battle Body was very dangerous and suspicious.
Moreover, Pei Feishan's eyes were still glued on them; he might figure something out.
The scariest part was, Hua Meixi seemed on the brink of breaking through to the Seventh Grade, beyond the Sixth Grade Battle Body.
Anyone could see Hua Meixi's explosion, but Pei Feishan could not under any circumstances?
What to do?
In his agitated state, Yao Yulou's True Qi seemed to break its concealment, reaching the third realm of the Emperor Martial Stage. He had to blast away Shiyu's duo to stop Hua Meixi's explosion.
"I, will kill you all!" At this moment, Hua Meixi's voice became hoarse and terrifying amidst the formation.
Aside from Yao Yulou, the other three powerful figures were surprised and puzzled as they looked at Hua Meixi.
Just as Yao Yulou tightened his fist and Hua Meixi prepared to unleash destructive force on the three assassins, a stream of light suddenly shot from afar... Clang!
A long spear, with lightning speed, smashed heavily between Hua Meixi and the three assassins.
The spear carried overwhelming power, fiercely driving back the three assassins and shattering the encroaching Spiritual Shadows into pieces, while Hua Meixi suddenly regained clarity...
She instinctively called out, "Who?"
At the same time, Duanmu Chun exclaimed joyfully, "Sikong Jing..."
"That East Dominator Sky Wolf whelp, how did he get here so fast?" This was the voice of Pei Feishan and Shi'an Leader.
Meanwhile, Yao Yulou was intensely shocked, his eyes glued to the long spear and then traced its origin, spotting Sikong Jing charging forth like a Fierce Beast, causing all Spiritual Shadows to collapse wherever he passed!
Sikong Jing made a swift move, landing on the spear shaft he had flung, eyes fixed on the three assassins, not looking back as he said, "Captain Hua, it's me, are you alright?"
Hua Meixi was slightly stunned, then let out a breath of relief; she thought there was a fourth assassin.
Subsequently, with a complicated expression, she said, "Sikong Jing, these three assassins should be from Shiyu Commerce. Let's join forces to take them down, then find a way to contact Senior Sister Weng and the others, I fear there are more terrifying assassins within this Spiritual Shadow Array."
She hadn't expected Sikong Jing to show up at this moment.
Meanwhile, Hua Meixi thought of the Spirit Martial Stage Heavenly King Realm assassin Sikong Jing had encountered, fearing more peril within the formation.
However, Sikong Jing shook his head and replied, "Captain Hua, only four assassins remain in the Spiritual Shadow Array. One is being held by that gentle man you came with, and I dealt with another, don't worry."
As of now, Sikong Jing didn't know that person was called Xiao Qibo.
Hua Meixi was again stunned, realizing Sikong Jing had known about the assassins all along and had even taken one down.
In the next moment, Sikong Jing continued, "Captain Hua, you're injured, leave first. Leave these three assassins to me."
On hearing this, Hua Meixi hesitated and asked, "Ah? How can that be?"
Even if Sikong Jing had the chance to take down these three assassins, leaving her behind was unreasonable.
At this point, Sikong Jing slowly turned back and said softly, "Didn't you notice you were acting a bit strange just now? If you continue fighting, you might undergo Deviation, we'll check it out at Old Man Spirit Manor."
Upon his words, Hua Meixi was taken aback, only then realizing something was indeed amiss earlier.
She finally understood why Sikong Jing wanted her to leave first.
It turned out he had sensed something unusual about her aura. She suddenly recalled Uncle Yao and her mother's words.
It was... Sikong Jing could possibly solve this odd condition of hers.
In fact, Sikong Jing arrived so quickly because he sensed Hua Meixi's abrupt outburst, which prompted him to pursue her.
Now he guessed Pei Feishan was likely nearby, and he also knew Pei Feishan was likely from the Qianwang Holy Tower, so he couldn't allow Hua Meixi to have an uncontrolled eruption here...
Otherwise, Pei Feishan could observe everything clearly.
At this moment, Hua Meixi still hesitated and said, "But Sikong Jing, you alone..."
Before she finished, Sikong Jing interrupted with a smile, "Don't worry, I'll be fine, just three Spirit Movement Realm guys."
As his words fell, Sikong Jing suddenly applied force to the long spear with his foot, propelling himself toward an oncoming assassin, unleashing a sword light that blasted the assassin away.
Then, in a swift turn, he appeared in front of Hua Meixi, the sword light blocking the second assassin attempting to sneak attack Hua Meixi.
As for the third assassin coming from the front...
Targeting Sikong Jing, the assassin's face was extremely fierce... However, Sikong Jing swiftly retrieved the long spear, the shaft smashing the approaching third assassin away.
A series of smooth actions followed, and Sikong Jing shouted again, "Go quickly, don't hesitate, or you might truly enter Deviation."
Hua Meixi was thoroughly shaken, staring intently at Sikong Jing, finally nodded and turned to leave.
Yet, she suddenly halted and cried out, "Sikong Jing, it's clear these three assassins have broken part of the Spiritual Shadow Array; they won't be attacked by the shadows, be careful!"
