"Princess, run!"
The boy yelled and leaped forward, only to be bitten and torn apart by the giant python.
With a loud 'thud,' it crashed into a tree trunk, fell heavily to the ground, and was too weak to get up.
Wu Liuyin frowned. Why was this two-headed python staring at the little girl?!
"Sister, save me..." The little girl cried out as she fell down in fright. Her cheeks were still wet with tears, and new tears were already flowing. She retreated and leaned against a boulder. The two-headed python slowly swam towards the little girl, flicking its tongue from time to time!
Wu Liuyin leaped forward and kicked away the two-headed python that was poised to attack. With a turn, she fired ten arrows from her divine crossbow at once, which struck the python. Unexpectedly, the python's skin was impervious to blades and spears, and only one arrow pierced the eye of one of the pythons, causing blood to splatter.
When I turned to look at the little girl, I found that she had fainted from fright, and the two people who had been thrown out by the giant python were lying unconscious on the ground.
With a painful groan, the two-headed python suddenly flew into a rage, whipping up a fierce wind as it pounced swiftly towards Wu Liuyin.
Seeing that she had no other choice, Wu Liuyin decided to blind all four of her eyes first.
Another ten arrows were fired, and the iron arrows blinded the other three eyes. These archers were so accurate; after all, they were snipers, and their aim was spot on! The giant python roared to the sky, in extreme pain. After suffering, it dared not make any rash moves and instead swayed its huge body in place.
It seemed to be listening to the sounds around it!
Seeing that the giant python was blind in all four eyes and motionless, Wu Liuyin instantly appeared beside it and punched it hard. The python let out another bitter howl, but its other head had already heard the noise and quickly bit Wu Liuyin's shoulder, shook it violently a few times, and threw it aside.

☆、073 Poisoning
Wu Liuyin was thrown to the ground with a heavy thud, and blood flowed from the corner of her mouth. Turning her head to look at her shoulder, she saw two deep teeth marks, from which blood continued to gush out. Her arm also quickly turned purple. "Damn it, the giant python is poisonous!" she thought to herself. She quickly tore off a piece of black sleeve and tied it around her neck, pressing on her acupoints to prevent the poison from spreading throughout her body.
When she stood up again, Liuyin exuded a bone-chilling icy aura, and her blue eyes were filled with killing intent. She flew forward, and her palm was already glowing with a deep blue light. The huge blue ball of light struck the giant python, and the fiery blue flames immediately ignited. The giant python roared a few times among the crowd and then collapsed, perishing in the sea of fire!
Wu Liuyin's sudden movement caused a huge fire, and the dry wood on the ground crackled and popped as the entire forest burned rapidly.
Flames soared into the sky, and smoke filled the forest, choking Wu Liuyin so much that tears welled up in her eyes. Her straw hat, which she had worn during the battle, was nowhere to be found, and without any gauze to cover her mouth and nose, she had to tear off a piece of her clothing to cover it. Wu Liuyin, with her fire-fighting experience, immediately used sticks to create firebreaks within a ten-mile radius, and the fire was brought under control in time.
Hearing the commotion, the members of the Fiery Clan rushed over, almost all of them running there.
They were all panting heavily...
"Master, are you alright?" Liehuo asked breathlessly, looking at the somewhat disheveled Wu Liuyin.
"It's alright." Under the firelight, Wu Liuyin's face was pale, without any veil to cover her face, her beautiful hair was a little messy, and there was a slight smile on her lips.
Xia Zhiheng and Huang Ying, who had never seen Wu Liuyin's stormy and thunderous appearance, were all stunned when they saw her face. They didn't know what to feel. They were all speechless at the sight of such a woman. Such an outstanding and arrogant woman was actually ugly, with blue eyes and a pockmarked face. She was indescribably strange.
Perhaps they all had the illusion of Wu Liuyin's stunning beauty, so seeing her in person was a bit hard for them to accept!
"Oh no! The little girl and two others are still inside!" Wu Liuyin shouted, rushing into the sea of fire.

☆、074 disappeared in the fire
"Wu Liuyin, are you crazy..." Liehuo suddenly shouted upon seeing Wu Liuyin's actions.
The others had barely reacted when they were startled again!
The fire burned for a full half hour before it was extinguished. Unfortunately, there was no water source in the forest, so everyone could only wait in vain. The raging fire rushed in several times, but came out again without success.
On a charred ruin, there was not a trace of a single person, only a skeleton, so white that it was impossible to tell whether it was male or female!
"Wu Liuyin..." Liehuo shouted and rushed forward, standing on the still-smoking ruins.
“Miss Liuyin…” Xia Zhiheng stared at the ruins in astonishment, his eyes vacant, muttering the name of Wu Liuyin.
"Third Imperial Consort..." The four of them, Feng Yu Lei Dian, looked on with grief as they watched this sudden event. Everything happened so suddenly, giving them no time to process it. So what if she had a pockmarked face and blue eyes? They accepted it anyway. But such an outstanding woman had just disappeared into the sea of fire.
Huang Ying no longer had the ability to accept reality, so she knelt down abruptly and silently lowered her head!
Liehuo's legs buckled, and he knelt on the ground. "No, Master is not dead! I have a contract with her. I can feel that she is still alive. She is still alive..."
A gentle breeze swept through, swirling up a shower of red leaves. Looking up, I saw a giant maple tree standing in the forest.
It seemed as if they too were shedding tears for the disappearance of Wu Liuyin! The vibrant red leaves were dazzling against the gray forest!
Suddenly, a group of men in black surged up from all sides, surrounding the group who were still reeling from the devastating news of Wu Liuyin's disappearance.
"Xia Zhiheng, how have you been?" A man in black slowly walked out from the crowd and looked at Xia Zhiheng with a grin.
“It’s you, Enchantress!” Xia Zhiheng said coldly.
"Yes, I didn't expect you to still be alive. But today is your day of reckoning, hahaha, all of you, charge!" The enchanting spirit laughed bloodthirstyly a few times, then suddenly shouted loudly. The black-clad men surrounding them immediately drew their sharp blades and swarmed forward fearlessly.

☆、075 The Alluring Soul of the Empty Gate
The wind, rain, thunder, and lightning exchanged a glance, let out a long howl, and joined the fight with the man in black.
The raging fire seemed to vent all the pain of Wu Liuyin's disappearance on this group of fearless people, each move deadly and more ruthless than the last!
The oriole was equally assertive.
Meihun held a sword in her hand, its sword aura overwhelming, filling the world with a desolate and murderous intent, as she stood facing Xia Zhiheng in battle.
Xia Zhiheng drew his sword with a backhand motion, holding it level with his chest, his gaze never leaving the black-clad man's hand. He knew it was a terrifying hand! It was this very hand that had crippled his spiritual power back then. Whether he could defeat Mei Hun now was a question mark. Because even he himself didn't know just how strong Mei Hun truly was. Mei Hun was one of the six great assassins of the Kongmen Sect—or rather, the fifth—and had always been vying with Xia Zhiheng for the position of the number one assassin. They were practically enemies. Mei Hun had always been arrogant, ambitious, and extremely vain, and had always been at odds with Xia Zhiheng. But then, for some unknown reason, Mei Hun suddenly seemed like a different person, his spiritual power erupting and far surpassing Xia Zhiheng's. Back then, when he was expelled from the Kongmen Sect, it was Mei Hun who had crippled his spiritual power!
Now that old enemies have met again, there is only one outcome: the brave will win and the loser will die!
Xia Zhiheng seemed like a completely different person at this moment. Although his hair was disheveled after a night of neglect and his clothes were still shabby, he no longer looked destitute. His astonished face was now radiating a dazzling light! After consuming the Five-Colored Pearl Flower, he was like a sword hidden in its sheath, concealing its brilliance and keeping its sharpness hidden, so no one could see its radiant splendor!
The sword is now drawn!
The Enchanting Iron Sword was swung out against the wind, a dark, cold light aimed straight for Xia Zhiheng's throat. Even before the sword arrived, its chilling aura shattered the autumn wind!
Xia Zhiheng slid back seven feet, his back pressed against a tree trunk.
The Enchantress's iron sword had already changed its attack, thrusting straight out.
With nowhere left to retreat, Xia Zhiheng suddenly slid up the tree trunk.
With a long howl, the demon soared into the sky, his iron sword transforming into a streak of light, and he and his sword became one.
The menacing sword energy caused the red leaves on the branches to flutter down.
The scene is both desolate and breathtakingly beautiful!
Xia Zhiheng swung his arms and swept past the flying sword energy, falling with the red leaves.
The demonic spirit howled incessantly, flipping in mid-air. Suddenly, a long sword transformed into countless beams of light, raining down upon Xia Zhiheng. The power of this sword was enough to shatter a person's soul!
Within a radius of three zhang around Xia Zhiheng, the area was already enveloped by sword energy, making it seem impossible to dodge in any direction.
With a "ding," sparks flew everywhere.

☆、076 An unexpected event led to everyone's departure
In that instant, the sword energy that filled the sky vanished without a trace, but the blood-red maple leaves had not yet fallen. The Enchanting Wood stood in the blood rain, his sword still held horizontally at his chest.
The liger's two sharp claws pounced on the enchantress's sword.
Xia Zhiheng still held his knife, but the black-clad man's knife had been broken by the lion-tiger beast's claws!
"Lion-Tiger Beast, step back!" Xia Zhiheng coldly ordered. The Lion-Tiger Beast, with its head down, roared a few times in dissatisfaction before retreating to the side.
Xia Zhiheng gazed quietly at Mei Hun, and Mei Hun gazed quietly at him and the lion-tiger beast not far behind him.
But both of them knew in their hearts that the sword in the Enchantress's hand was no longer able to be used.
Xia Zhiheng knew that Meihun's blade was as fast as lightning, and its speed was greatly affected by the fact that the blade cut through the wind. Now that the blade was broken, its speed would be greatly affected. He immediately flashed behind Meihun and kicked her in the back.
The demon stumbled, forced against the tree trunk by the powerful gust of wind from the leg, and then another sword slashed down, piercing straight through the head. The demon died.
The demonic spirit bowed in defeat, its body slowly sliding down and collapsing amidst a cluster of red wind-blown leaves! Xia Zhiheng glanced at the docile lion-tiger beast; if it weren't for it, he might not have won today. He stepped forward and patted the lion-tiger beast's head.
The liger then lay down and licked Xia Zhiheng's handsome face.
Moments later, all the newcomers lay dead in pools of blood, their狰狞 faces staring up at the sky above the forest.
The last few maple leaf fragments had fallen, and the maple forest returned to silence, a deathly silence.
A few people stood alone.
"Miss Liuyin has disappeared. Huang Ying must hurry to the Trial Valley to inform her master and take her leave first." Huang Ying was the first to leave, and no one stopped her!
"Gentlemen, the four of us—Wind, Rain, Thunder, and Lightning—must also report to the Third Prince immediately. Please keep a close eye on the matter of the Third Princess Consort," Feng said, stepping forward to look at Liehuo, whose face was dark with anger.
