Chapter 29 Murong Family
Bang bang bang~~
Just then, a round of applause broke out.
"What a visual feast! It's been so long since I've seen such a battle!"
"Who?"
Lu Bing drew his embroidered spring knife from his waist and looked around warily, but he couldn't find where the sound was coming from.
The Imperial Guards also surrounded Ying Chen to prevent anyone from launching a sneak attack.
Sizzle~~
A crack appeared in the surrounding space, and three figures walked out from it.
Among the three were two young men and women, and an old man who appeared to be their protector.
The young man was very handsome, dressed in a purple robe, with a purple mark on his forehead, which, combined with his good looks, made him appear quite alluring...
The woman was dressed in a light blue dress, with long, flowing hair that reached her waist. She also had a blue mark on her forehead. As for her appearance, she wore a veil, so her features were not clearly visible, but even from the parts that were exposed, it was clear that she was an exceptionally beautiful woman...
Ying Chen frowned slightly, looking at the three people who had appeared, his heart filled with a sense of solemnity.
He discovered that the two young people, who were about his age, were both at the Nascent Soul stage, while he couldn't discern the cultivation level of the old man...
"Your Highness! This old man's cultivation is terrifying. If a fight breaks out, Your Highness, please leave first, and I will cover your retreat..."
Lu Bing looked at the three of them warily and transmitted his voice to Ying Chen.
Ying Chen nodded and secretly activated his Eye of Truth.
Name: Murong Haoxuan
Identity: Young Master of the reclusive Murong family
Strength: Mid-Nascent Soul Stage
Loyalty: 50 (Random Person)
Name: Murong Yishuang
Identity: Daughter of the patriarch of the reclusive Murong family
Strength: Mid-Nascent Soul Stage
Loyalty: 50 (Random Person)
After seeing the two people's profiles, Ying Chen breathed a sigh of relief, at least they didn't seem to have any ill intentions towards him and the others.
Ying Chen waved his hand, dismissing the Imperial Guards, and walked up to the three men. He cupped his hands in greeting and asked, "May I ask who you three are and what brings you here?"
The three returned the greeting, and the young man said, "My name is Murong Haoxuan, this is my younger sister Murong Yishuang, and as for this gentleman, you can call him Uncle Fu, he is our elder..."
"As for why we are here, it's because we had important business to attend to at the Huangfu Dynasty. We passed by here and saw a great battle below, so we stopped to watch. We just didn't expect the war between the two dynasties to be so thrilling and full of twists and turns..."
"This is truly a rare sight, especially those two cavalry units that appeared later; they are in no way inferior to the Imperial Dynasty's soldiers..."
The young man became more and more excited as he spoke, his eyes burning with fervor as he gazed at the charging White Horse Cavalry and the Imperial Guards in the distance. His eyes were glazed over, and even his face was flushed...
"elder brother!"
At this moment, Murong Yishuang gently nudged Murong Haoxuan and whispered something.
"Ah! I'm sorry, I lost my composure! I haven't yet asked your name, fellow Daoist..."
Murong Haoxuan snapped out of his daze and noticed that everyone was looking at him with strange eyes. His face turned a little red, and he quickly changed the subject.
"No problem!"
Ying Chen waved his hand to indicate that he didn't mind, and then continued, "My name is Chen Ying. Like you, I stopped to watch the battle here..."
He deliberately used an alias; one should always be careful when traveling.
Moreover, these three individuals are not simple people; they are from reclusive families. Besides the various dynasties, the Xuan Tian Realm also has sects and powerful families...
Among them, some reclusive sects and families are the most powerful...
It's important to understand that not just anyone can choose to live in seclusion. Without the necessary strength, even if you want to, you don't have the right to do so...
Take the Murong family for example. Although he had never heard of them before, even Lu Bing sensed danger from the old man they were with. He was very likely a Void Refinement Realm expert, and Void Refinement Realm experts were a rare existence only found in the Imperial Dynasty!
"So you're the same way, fellow Daoist! It seems we share the same interests!"
"To be honest, fellow Daoist, I've dreamed of being a general since I was a child, longing to lead a large army to fight on the battlefield. However, my family was very strict with me, so this dream was put on hold. Alas, thinking about it now, it's all a regret!"
Upon hearing what Ying Chen said, a glint flashed in Murong Haoxuan's eyes, and he spoke up.
Ying Chen's expression was strange. He hadn't expected that a scion of a reclusive family would have such a dream. It was truly odd...
"Brother Murong is truly a man of character!"
In the end, Ying Chen really didn't know what to say, so he could only say this.
"Hahaha! Fellow Daoist, you think so too? I think so too. We've had a very pleasant conversation today, how about we become friends..."
Murong Haoxuan laughed loudly and spoke.
"Well... okay!"
Ying Chen finally nodded in agreement.
"Alright, I'm a bit older than you, so you can call me elder brother! From now on, I'll call you younger brother Chen!"
Murong Haoxuan spoke.
"Brother!"
Ying Chen didn't hesitate and called out in a straightforward manner.
"Alas! Brother Chen!"
Murong Haoxuan responded happily and stepped forward to pat Ying Chen on the shoulder.
"Brother, we've been here too long, it's time to leave..."
Just then, Murong Yishuang, who had been silent until now, spoke up.
"Oh! Right, I almost forgot about the important matter!"
Murong Haoxuan slapped his forehead and said in annoyance.
"Brother Chen, I have other matters to attend to, so I will take my leave now. If you need anything in the future, you can come to the Murong family in Yuanyang Valley to find me!"
After saying that, the old man named Uncle Fu created a spatial passage, and the three of them stepped into it.
Then, the space slowly closed, leaving only Ying Chen and the others in the same spot.
"Your Highness!"
At this moment, Zhao Yun and Dian Wei also appeared here. They were on their way to Zhenman Pass, but when they sensed spatial fluctuations here, they thought there were still Nascent Soul experts from the Blood Barbarian Dynasty here!
Unexpectedly, I saw my own prince as soon as I came out.
"Alright! Go and command the troops! Remember to rescue Chen Cong..."
Ying Chen nodded and said.
"Here!"
The two bowed respectfully and then disappeared from the spot again.
"Murong Haoxuan? Murong Yishuang? The Murong family?"
"What an interesting person!"
Ying Chen muttered to himself.
"Lu Bing, investigate the background of this Murong family afterwards!"
"Here!"
Lu Bing respectfully said that he would keep this matter in mind and investigate it after the matter here was resolved.
Meanwhile, the battle of Zhenman Pass was nearing its end. Under the encirclement and suppression of the White Horse Cavalry and the Imperial Guards, the Blood Barbarian Dynasty's army suffered heavy losses, and its annihilation was only a matter of time. In the air, Chen Cong and Gu Hanhai were also covered in wounds, but they continued to fight...
