The Fairy: From the Traveling Merchant

Chapter 664: Yingxian Pavilion

The royal palace of Riquan State, "Yingxian Pavilion".

This "attic" standing on the hill is actually a Western-style building, which looks like a dark castle with two high towers and a large garden surrounding them.

Xie Hanying, who was hiding on the side of the hill, followed a group of Gangsha monks into the garden, and then saw that many plants in the garden suddenly woke up from their "sleep".

Some of them stretched out their vines to entangle, some turned into high walls to resist attacks, and some cast powerful five-element spells to attack the intruders...

The tiered configuration and clear division of labor give people the illusion that this is an elite "army".

Therefore, the team of Gangsha monks, which was not weak in strength, was defeated after only holding out for less than half a quarter of an hour. Except for a man with outstanding defensive spells, the rest of them were all buried in the garden.

Seeing this, Xie Hanying took a deep breath and said to his adopted brother “Xiaodao”: “Look, I was right not to let you act rashly, wasn’t I?

"A building that is called 'taboo' by the 'Inner Guard' is indeed very difficult to deal with."

This female cultivator from the Xie family's branch looked only seventeen or eighteen years old. She was dressed in a dark blue dress with layers of tulle, each layer of which was embroidered with delicate runes and outlined with silver lines, which contrasted with the silver moon in the night sky.

Her appearance was not particularly outstanding, but it was quite attractive, especially the teardrop mole under the left eye, which added a bit of charm.

However, "Xiaodao", whom she regarded as her brother, was perhaps too young to appreciate this kind of charm. He only frowned and said, "I don't feel Sima Jingrui's presence. Maybe he is not here...

"Since the 'Yingxian Pavilion' is so difficult to deal with, why don't we go to the other two 'forbidden' places to have a look? Maybe we can find Sima Jingrui's whereabouts."

After killing the bearded deputy commander, the two of them raided the "Inner Guard Office" of Riquan Kingdom, and naturally obtained a lot of information about "taboos".

Xie Hanying reached out and touched "Xiaodao's" head. For some reason, she always felt that this child was very close to her, so she was willing to help him get revenge.

Seeing that "Xiaodao" dodged awkwardly, she smiled and said, "Even if Sima Jingrui is really not here, the defense of Yingxian Pavilion is so strong, which means that he values ​​this place very much and will definitely come to check it out."

"Xiaodao" thought about it carefully and agreed with "Sister Hanying's" inference, so he asked, "Then are we just going to wait here now?"

Xie Hanying shook her head: "Of course not... We still have to find a way to get into the Yingxian Pavilion.

"Not to mention that he might be hiding in there, I am from a famous family. I have to find enough evidence and reasons before killing the Sima family."

"Xiaodao" glanced at the gardens surrounding the black building, pursed his lips and said, "But there are mutated plants blocking the road..."

He was very good at killing people, but he had little experience in dealing with plants and lacked the corresponding means.

"In fact, it is not difficult for me to get rid of those plants, but it may alert Sima Jingrui, and he won't dare to get close to them even after returning..." As she spoke, Xie Hanying pulled out a necklace made of tiny sapphires from the collar of her shirt and let it fall naturally in front of her chest, blending perfectly with her own "aura".

As a descendant of the Xie family's side branch, although Xie Hanying was not qualified to practice the family's martial arts "Taiyin Yuanjun Jingming Huangsu Shu", he was granted the unique martial arts "Hanyue Xianfu Jing" which evolved from this martial arts.

She was also very talented. Not only did she use the highest achievement of this technique, the second-grade magical power "Ice Wheel Jade Talisman" as her own foundation, she also cultivated a rather complex third-grade collection of magical powers, the "Huangsu Twelve Talismans".

What Xie Hanying is using now with the help of the necklace is the "Huangsu Palace Jade Girl Dongxu Divine Talisman" in the "Huangsu Twelve Talismans Book".

"The Huangsu Cave is dark and empty, and the divine light shines in the space..." Along with an ethereal and ethereal voice, shadows of talismans flashed in Xie Hanying's eyes. The next moment, the entire forbidden structure of the "Yingxian Pavilion" appeared in her mind.

The effect of this magic talisman is similar to that of Zhao Chen's "Dongxu Eye", and it is even stronger than the "Dongxu Eye" at its current stage.

After a moment, Xie Hanying came out of that mysterious state. She wiped the sweat from her forehead and put the necklace back into her collar.

After doing all this, she faced Xiaodao's puzzled gaze and pointed to the back of the steep hill: "We can jump directly into the third window on the second floor of Yingxian Pavilion from here. That is the only relatively 'safe' route."

"Okay!" "Xiaodao" didn't ask any more questions and nodded in agreement.

Since the anti-flying magic circle in the palace had not yet completely lost its effectiveness, Xie Hanying did not choose to fly, but instead used his lightness skills to climb up.

However, "Xiaodao" was even more agile than her. He jumped to the top of the hill with just two jumps.

Next, the two of them carefully observed and confirmed that there was no one in the target window. Xie Hanying then said to "Xiaodao": "I will explore the way first, you get ready."

"Xiaodao" nodded coldly, then watched "Sister Hanying" jump into the window, and then made a gesture to him.

But just when "Xiaodao" was about to enter the "Yingxian Pavilion" in the same way, something unexpected happened - the window, the window that Sister Hanying had identified as the "safe route" disappeared!
If it had not suddenly disappeared under Xiaodao's gaze and Sister Hanying had not disappeared as well, Xiaodao would even have felt that he had been dreaming.

“How could this happen?!” “Xiaodao”, who had always acted very cool, became visibly panicked. No matter how mature he acted, he was just an eight or nine-year-old child after all.

Seeing that all the windows of "Yingxian Pavilion" disappeared one after another, and even the main gate on the garden side began to become illusory, "Xiaodao" gritted his teeth, and finally jumped directly from the top of the hill into the terrible garden.

He had already lost a sister, and he couldn't lose another one even if he died.

However, the strength of the plant monsters in the garden was far beyond his imagination. Even though he was no longer a "human" in nature, he still suffered a great loss in front of those various plants that were like soldiers.

His small body became covered with scars, his aura fluctuated, and even his shape seemed to be changing.

But at this moment, a figure fell from the sky.

"Xiaodao" couldn't help but look up, and saw a man who looked like a middle-aged uncle but was extremely young in his "perception" falling in front of him.

The man just stood with his hands behind his back, and the red and blue mysterious light around him easily blocked all attacks from the plants. No matter whether it was fire spells or seed-like bullets that were like "guns", they could not break through his defense. Instead, the red lotus fire that appeared out of nowhere made the plant monsters wither quickly and turn into dust.

After dealing with most of the monsters in the garden, the man turned around and looked at "Little Knife", then said hesitantly:

"Little friend...are you a knife?"

"Xiaodao" seemed to have not expected that the man who suddenly appeared could see through his background at a glance.

He was stunned for a moment, then nodded seriously:

"I am indeed a sword... a sword with the destiny to kill Sima Jingrui!"
