Chapter 776: 776 belongs to Princess Yongning’s battlefield! [2 more updates]

These Hidden Guards indeed only follow Lin Shiyuan, and they are unaware that Lin Shiyuan is dead. Now, the soul in control of this body is Envoy Miao Yin under the seat of the Supreme Wisdom.

Most importantly, these Hidden Guards have long been imprinted with her spiritual mark.

Without her spiritual imprint, they wouldn’t possess such high strength.

If they violate her orders, they will die as well.

Miao Yin has long known that one must do everything with thorough preparation and leave enough backups to prevent any unexpected occurrences.

The Hidden Guards responded coldly and mechanically to the order: "Yes, Miss Shiyuan."

"How dare you!" The Great Elder of the Lin Family was furious, "Shiyuan has already rested in peace. What are you? Get out of Shiyuan’s body!"

"Tsk, old thing." Miao Yin waved dismissively and pointed at the rest of the Lin Family people, "And them, deal with them all together!"

None of those who know her identity can be left alive.

"Damn it!" The Great Elder of the Lin Family’s voice turned harsh, "Everyone from the Lin Family, prepare to face the enemy!"

"Twang!"

"Zheng zheng——"

The sound of the zither, the flute, and the clashing of swords intertwined, and the battle erupted!

"What are you doing? Have you lost your mind?" The Great Elder of the Lin Family fended off several Hidden Guards, "You’re Shiyuan’s people! Now Shiyuan is dead, harmed by the demon in her body, and yet you not only don’t avenge her, you turn to assist the tyrant instead?"

However, these Hidden Guards’ faces showed no expression, ignoring these words as if they were emotionless robots.

The Great Elder of the Lin Family still considered them as Lin Shiyuan’s people, not using full force.

But at this moment, Miao Yin appeared in front of her in a flash and kicked her to a tree.

Due to the cultivation technique of the Musician of Heavenly Sound being yin-affiliated, their physique was already quite weak, and the Great Elder of the Lin Family was caught off guard by Miao Yin’s surprise attack. This blow directly inflicted serious injury on her.

"Pugh——" The Great Elder of the Lin Family spat out a large mouthful of black blood, gasping for breath.

The color of the blood indicated that she had been poisoned.

"Old thing, these Hidden Guards have been loyal to me for a long time. Do you think a few random words from you could change anything?" Miao Yin sneered, "Even you yourself can’t guarantee your own safety, so better worry about yourself first!"

She formed her hand into a claw, aiming this time at the left chest of the Great Elder of the Lin Family.

More blood continued to flow down from the corner of the Great Elder of the Lin Family’s mouth as she stared at Miao Yin, barely able to speak: "You..."

Miao Yin’s smile widened, her gaze turning sinister.

However, just as she was about to rip out the Great Elder of the Lin Family’s heart, a heavy strike came directly at her crown.

"Boom!"

Miao Yin tumbled awkwardly across the ground: "Who?!"

Ye Wanlan held the Sun and Moon Ruyi Zither, her fingers strumming the strings once more.

"Zheng——"

A long zither tone descended, wrapping the Great Elder of the Lin Family in a golden protective shield.

The Great Elder of the Lin Family exclaimed, "You actually... can use this zither!"

Her gaze toward Ye Wanlan suddenly became fervent.

Originally, Lin Shiyuan was thought to be a once-in-a-century genius of the Lin Family, but it turned out her granddaughter Lin Weilan’s talent surpassed even hers.

It was known that the last person who could use all Three Ancient Zithers simultaneously was Lin Fanyin, the Sect Leader of Heavenly Sound Sect.

Ye Wanlan extended her hand, quickly tapping several points on the Great Elder of Lin Family’s body, sealing her vital meridians and essential acupoints.

Without waiting for the Great Elder of the Lin Family to speak, Ye Wanlan took out several pills and stuffed them into her mouth.

"Great Elder, refrain from using Inner Strength anymore." Ye Wanlan met the Great Elder of Lin Family’s shocked gaze, "The real enemy hasn’t appeared yet, we can’t afford any more losses."

This time it’s merely Envoy Miao Yin.

What about next time?

What if it’s the second Battle of Ten Thousand Armies or an invasion from the Atlantians, what then?

Ye Wanlan looked at Miao Yin, her gaze cooling.

"You insolent brat, bullying the old and mocking the young." Miao Yin brushed off the shattered stones on her body, "Even though my power is restricted, today, you must die!"

Ye Wanlan remained unmoved: "Those words, I give back to you."

"Give them to me?" Miao Yin found it amusing, her expression showed pity, "You have concerns, but I don’t. Here, I can kill anyone."

She only needed to attack, but Ye Wanlan had to consider preserving others’ lives, which would restrict her actions.

"Speed up!" Miao Yin gave the order again, herself charging toward Ye Wanlan.

Even though Lin Baiwei transferred her final Inner Strength to Ye Wanlan, Ye Wanlan still suffered serious injuries from an earlier exchange.

Miao Yin sneered coldly.

She was eager to see how long Ye Wanlan could last!

Suddenly——

"Buzzing!"

The space began to vibrate as a massive golden shield appeared above.

Yue Zheng had arrived!

She was casting a spell, activating the Vajra Cover.

"Vajra Cover!" Miao Yin also recognized this Mountain Guardian Treasure of Mount Penglai, "A fine treasure indeed, but Ye Wanlan, even if you use the Golden Bell Shield to protect the Five Great Families, what difference does it make? I can easily direct these Hidden Guards to massacre the citizens of Yunjing!"

She was an Atlantian, and human life and death mattered not to her.

If she could slaughter Yunjing amidst chaos, her merits would be unrivaled!

Ye Wanlan spat out a mouthful of blood calmly: "Who said the Vajra Cover was used to protect the Five Great Families?"

"Heaven and Earth Profound Sect, Wan Qi Ben Gen." Yue Zheng bit her fingertip, crafting a formation with blood in the air, "Vajra Unlimited, shake heaven and earth, urgently as! Command! Order!"

"Buzz——Boom!"

The enormous Vajra Cover descended with a roar!

Golden ripples blocked the Hidden Guards’ path, and thousands of them, including Miao Yin, were all ensnared within the Vajra Cover.

The Vajra Cover was the hardest item in the world, impossible to break until Yue Zheng’s Mana was exhausted.

"You actually..." Miao Yin’s pupils shrank, "Used Vajra Cover like this?!"

Ye Wanlan wiped away the blood from her lips.

Sometimes, thinking outside the box is the correct path.

She ignored Miao Yin, who was furious and incoherent, and turned to ask, "How long can it last?"

Yue Zheng calculated the time and shook her head slightly: "Fifteen minutes."

If she were at her peak, she would have no trouble using Vajra Cover to shield all of Shenzhou.

But in her current state, she was far too weak.

"It’s enough." Ye Wanlan drew the Sword in the Zither from the Sun and Moon Ruyi Zither, "I’ll deal with the remaining scattered Hidden Guards outside. Everyone else, quickly recover from injuries and contact the Xiang and Huo families!"

The People of Lin Family were still a bit stunned.

"Aren’t you going to obey the Family Head’s orders, hurry up and take action?" The Great Elder of the Lin Family was the first to react, "Go quickly!"

Inside the Vajra Cover, Miao Yin was trying to find a way to break the formation.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom——!"

Golden ripples spread out circle by circle, dissolving all their attacks.

"Damn Vajra Cover!" Miao Yin was furious, "Indeed, Shenzhou Taoism is our biggest enemy!"

She raised her head, seeing Yue Zheng maintaining the Vajra Cover, her eyes flickering.

The more powerful the treasure, the more Mana it required. She wanted to see how long the Vajra Cover could last!

When the time comes, these people will still die!

Time passed by every minute, and the people of the Five Great Families finally absorbed the previous shock and recovered their combat capabilities.

But compared to these Hidden Guards, the remaining fighting strength of the families was much weaker.

"She can’t hold on anymore!" Miao Yin jumped up suddenly, "Everyone, break out!"

"Boom!"

Finally, Yue Zheng’s Mana was exhausted, the Vajra Cover shattered, unable to hinder Miao Yin’s magical treasure anymore.

"Ye Wanlan, you had the chance to escape earlier, but now there’s no chance to flee." Miao Yin’s gaze was fierce, "If you dare, show me another Vajra Cover!"

"Why should I escape?" Ye Wanlan slightly tilted her head, "My reinforcements are here."

Having returned to Shenzhou for more than a decade, how could she truly be empty-handed and alone?

Hidden Guards?

She had them too.
