The Chronicles Of New Havens

But the Loon siblings did not lose focus, not even for a second. Their gazes were as sharp as ever. While this was not a favorable situation, they had foreseen this possibility! Much like how their enemies had reinforcements, did they not also have them? Of course, the Imperial Princesses and Imperian Qiang did not count. They not only lacked experience, but also technique. They were talking about Chang, Tai, and Xai! Naturally, with their infiltration a success, there was no need for the first group to continue distracting. After all, the commander already knew their aim!

Within mere moments, their reinforcements had arrived! Chang, Tai, Xai, and even the Imperial Princesses and Qiang had come in full force. The group did not spare a thought before cutting their way into the encirclement. The soldiers had no time to react before they were knocked aside or killed! As much as Xiuying and Ming wanted a peaceful outcome, they knew the world was not naïve enough for them. Rather than tying their own hands, it was better to use anything necessary! As long as they were not overboard, they had no qualms in using force! The world was built off blood and sacrifices! Furthermore, the twins were not the type of people to sit back and watch. They were truly participating firsthand!

The commander was stunned and quickly regained his fury. After being nearly burned alive, his attention was solely focused on killing those who did it. He realized his mistake. He should have immediately recalled the three Imperial Sentinels and the soldiers who were trying to hunt down Chang, Tai, and Xai. That way, he could fortify the camp even more and prevent the current situation from happening! Even if their opponents attacked in full force, he was confident in defending against it. But now, his remaining soldiers were still in a wild goose chase for a nonexistent enemy! Fortunately, they were close. It would only take a minute or two to reach here.

His mind worked quickly, reorganizing the troops to fend off the new threat. However, their momentum was too strong. In seconds, they pierced into the encirclement, giving the Loon siblings a safe way out. The siblings fended off the two Imperial Sentinels while leaving the heir in the hands of the others. Tai carried the girl in one hand and prepared to take off until he saw Xiuying's troubled face. Why? It was because Benedict, Shirley, and Freon were unconscious and bleeding out! Their wounds were serious. Even if they were left alone, they might die in the next hour! Tai sighed. Without saying anything, he already knew what she was thinking. If he did not, how could he call himself her Protector?

If it were him, he would not bother, but… Tai motioned for Chang and the two worked together to carry the unconscious trio. Tai was already quite strong so he could comfortably carry Elizabeth and Freon. However, Chang was weaker. Granted, this was by Tai's absurd standards. Tai trained his body every single day, honing every muscle to their peak. He could comfortably carry two persons in his arms! Chang helped carry Benedict. Xai helped with Shirley. Xiuying was surprised, but soon nodded. This was not the time! They had to escape!

The whole exchange lasted for seconds as the soldiers tried to desperately reclaim the heir. Despite the fairly high combat standards of the soldiers, with the majority being Fundamental Realm experts, equivalent to a High Knight of the Realm in the Alzar Kingdom, they were still outclassed on average. Although the Li Family lost plenty of masters in the fight against Minister Linshi, Xai's men could hold their own! Together, they formed a tight cocoon, protecting the people inside. The Imperial Sentinels were truly pitiful. The Loon siblings completely dominated them in terms of skill! After fetching Elizabeth and her friends, they immediately started fighting their way out. The entire battlefield turned into chaos. Both sides were not without casualties.

Xiuying and Ming dashed forward with their saber and spear to cut a way out as everyone flooded out the hole. By now, everyone had varying degrees of injuries. The forest floor was slowly being painted red. Even Qiang was not spared! In this fast-paced battle, who cared about status? A single moment of hesitation meant death! For a time, Xiuying's group was unstoppable. Their group had more than twice the number of Perception Realms. Even though the soldiers chased them down, Xiuying's group was rock solid. Their coordination was impeccable. But how could things go so smoothly?

The commander smiled. His remaining soldiers caught up! At the front of the pack was the three Imperial Sentinels! The two sentinels engaged with the Loon siblings breathed a sigh of relief, sensing their allies approaching. Meanwhile, the Loon siblings gritted their teeth. If the five sentinels entered the fray, then they would instantly become the top combat power! They were already at a numerical disadvantage. Preying on Xiuying's group would be trivial! If they stood any chance in surviving, then the five sentinels must absolutely not reach them!

Jingyi and Juan exchanged a final glance with Qiang. Qiang caught it, but frowned, not understanding it. However, he soon realized their intentions! Juan Loon gave a particularly lovely smile, reminiscent of a blossoming flower right before wilting. All she wanted was for Qiang to see her as a woman, rather than a Protector. She teared up. Love was a cruel thing. Without waiting to see his reaction, she turned back to face the five sentinels alongside her brother. Individually, their combat power was near the apex. However, their true strength laid in their cooperation! Why else would they be nicknamed the Lightning Flicker and the Thunder Crash? They were confident in stalling the five Imperial Sentinels simultaneously for Qiang's group to escape!

Two desperate fights unfolded, the one in the front was Qiang's group and the rear was the Loon siblings. Without the pressure of the Imperial Sentinels, the situation reversed! The Loon siblings and Xai's men sacrificed themselves to give Qiang enough time. Gradually, the distance grew and before long, they escaped into the Kuthong Forest! Elizabeth was successfully rescued!
