"Congratulations and well done; you have successfully cut down the tree targets and have the chance to advance to the next trial," a voice said.Yin Deng, who was sitting on the ground, stood up after hearing the voice. He looked around, trying to see the person talking, but couldn't find the person behind the voice."There is a reward for you in passing this trial; you can select three plants here if you want," the voice added.When he heard the voice again, he looked around, and it was then that he noticed that the energy surrounding the precious plants had been dissolved.Yin Deng was looking at all the plants with a confused expression on his face; He knew about precious plants but had never come across one before. He was looking at all the plants with strange eyes. He doesn't know which plant to choose because all plants look rare, valuable, and precious."You may pick any three you want," the voice said.Yin Deng walked forward towards the precious plants, feeling a mix of excit
The magical beasts the three guards rode traveled through the sky, moving at a high speed towards the Keban kingdom without slowing down. Lu Shang, who also rode a magical beast, followed them quietly and cautiously from behind, trying not to be seen. If the guards noticed him, they might change direction and pretend not to be headed to the Keban kingdom. This is because the three guards were aware of Lu Shang's identity as the chief guard of defense, and seeing him now could cause trouble.As the guards moved closer to the Keban kingdom, the magical beast of Lu Shang suddenly started to move faster towards the guards magical beast. Hearing the flapping of winds, the three guards turned to see what was going on behind them, when they turned back they saw a fast speeding magical beast flying towards they. When they saw the person on the back of the magical beast, they immediately recognized the person to be the chief guard of defense and the son-in-law of the king of the Keban kingdom.
The magical beasts that the guards were on dropped to the ground and stood there as if they were expecting someone.The three guards jumped down from the back of the magical beast and then looked around, trying to see if anyone was in sight. They couldn't see anyone."What the hell is wrong with this damn magical beast?" One of the guards roared out loud with a visible angry expression on his face. He couldn't believe that, when they were already so close to the royal palace of the Keban kingdom, the magical beast would fall out of their control."Seems like something is wrong," another guard said, looking around with his eyes fixed on all corners of the forest, trying to see if there was anything out of the ordinary he would see."But why is it that Lu Shang, the chief guard of defense of the Keban kingdom, is coming from the same direction we came from?" A guard, putting on a golden armor and white robe, with a sword hung on his back and his eyes shining like a sparkling sword, said
They surrounded Lu Shang in a triangular way, putting Lu Shang in the middle of their three."Do we really have to go through this?" Lu Shang said, smiling with a calm look on his face.The three started towards Lu Shang with their weapons in their hands.Lu Shang had already drawn out his sword from his back, ready to fight against the three. He was confident, fighting against the three without difficulty.Damon released two arrows toward Lu Shang, who easily dodged the arrows one by one. Shadow came to the front of Lu Shang and then slashed down with the sword in his hand.Lu Shang jumped back and easily avoided the attack. Lu Shang ran toward Sparkling Sword Lord and then started to fight against him; he knew that Sparkling Sword Lord was the strongest among the three and would be the hardest and most difficult to defeat, so he had to defeat him first before the others.With a speed faster than the blink of an eye, Lu Shang swung his sword in an arc, slicing through the air in a sh
"Never underestimate your opponent," Lu Shang said to the three guards. Lu Shang walked closer to the three, with the wolves following behind him. The guards began to move backward from Lu Shang, afraid that he was going to do something harmful to them. "Stop moving backward and stay right there, or else you are going to regret it if you step a foot backward." Lu Shang was beginning to lose his temper. He yelled out loud to the three, which made the three guards stop in their tracks in fear of enraging Lu Shang to do something that would be harmful to them. Lu Shang got to where the three were standing and then began to circle around them as if he were their boss. The hearts of the guards were beating rapidly; was this where their lives were going to end? Is this how they will end up? This was the thought of the three guards, who were shaking from their heads to their toes. "You accepted the mission to come intrude into the palace, thinking it would be an easy job, but you never k
Taking the three guards to the prison as per the order of the king"Are you guys really doing this?" Sparkling sword Lord said to the guards that were escorting them to their prison cell.The three guards behind Sparkling Sword Lord, Shadow, and Damon stopped walking and then fixed their gaze on Sparkling Sword Lord."What are you trying to say? Are you telling us to disobey the king and then let you escape from the palace?" one of the guards said."I'm not telling you to do that, but don't you feel something is weird in the palace?" The sparkling sword lord said it with boldness. He knew that he would be able to convince the guards to believe him."I don't understand what you are trying to say, something weird where?" The guard asked with confusion on his face, not understanding what the sparkling sword lord was saying or what he meant. "Don't you think he is using us without caring about our lives or whether we die in battle? All he wants is to make us fulfill or carry out his task
Getting to the Yuan palace, Lu Shang sneakily changed into one of the guard dresses and then entered the palace without any notice from anyone.Lu Shang and Yin Deng pass each other without taking a look at each other. Yin Deng was looking for the person named Lu Shang, but because he doesn't know or has never seen Lu Shang before, he wasn't able to identify him when they passed each other. Yin Deng walked around the palace in hope of hearing someone talk about the person named Lu Shang, but he couldn't. Yin Deng got angry and shouted angrily, "Who is this guy? How will I know about someone I have never met before? What kind of trial is this? Can't I just pass through the trial by myself without joining someone? He was frustrated.Yin Deng, filled with anger and frustration, decided to take matters into his own hands and find Lu Shang himself. He started pacing the halls of the Yuan Palace, moving from place to place in hope of seeing someone to ask about this guy called Lu Shang.As
The other guards that were in the city couldn't find out any information but were still around the place for any sign of getting any information.The plan of Lu Shang was going well and progressing as he planned; many guards in the palace had been brainwashed by him, along with the sparkling sword lord and the two guards kept in prison by the king.Many guards have come to think about the fact that the king didn't bother about their lives but only his own and his family's. The guards were secretly planning and waiting for the right to strike against the king.The king was comfortably sitting on his throne, not knowing the intention of his own guards and still not knowing that the traitor (Lu Shang) he was looking for was in his palace and was freely going around convincing and brainwashing the guards, making them see reason to hate the king.Some of the guards had been brought to the palace from a very young age to be trained to be guards in the palace, while others were sold to the p
