Chapter 1051: 702

The Priestess of Spring, terrified, ordered everyone to stop Qiu Wentian. To prevent her from approaching the Peaceful Tavern, to prevent her from getting near those Great Chen people.

Because she had learned from Qiu Wentian’s actions that the secret of Great Chen’s berserk soldiers had been discovered!

This was beyond the Priestess of Spring’s expectation, as it was supposed to be Great Chen’s most closely guarded secret.

Xuan City provided Insect God’s True Blood, Great Chen created berserk soldiers.

Especially Great Chen, to protect the secret of the berserk soldiers, they even went so far as to silence those involved on multiple occasions.

Moreover, the wounded berserk soldiers only existed in two states: slightly wounded or dead.

Because the technology applying the Insect God’s True Blood was extremely crude. Though it significantly enhanced the soldiers’ various attributes, the Insect God’s True Blood in their bodies was not stable. They often suffered from bodily mutations.

And once they were severely injured, the Insect God’s True Blood inside them would immediately go berserk, causing their bodies to mutate rapidly.

Compared to the residents of Xuan City’s outer city, they could no longer be considered human. They were monsters wearing human skins!

Therefore, many critically injured berserk soldiers would be executed on the battlefield. Under the strict confidentiality of the Great Chen Kingdom, this powerful army could exist on the continent.

Yet, how had such a closely guarded secret been detected?

Was there a mole inside Xuan City, or had Great Chen itself slipped up?

It would be extremely dangerous to let the residents of Xuan City’s outer city see the true face of the berserk soldiers at this time!

The Priestess of Spring forced herself to calm down while swiftly thinking things through in her mind.

"If the patrol team can’t stop her..."

"Then we need to cut ties with Great Chen Kingdom quickly. If the aliens really appear, then it will be Great Chen Kingdom’s problem."

"We have to draft the documents immediately and contact other nations to condemn Great Chen Kingdom’s inhumane actions in creating the aliens."

Aliens... This life-altering technology that contradicts Heavenly Principle, once exposed,

Great Chen Kingdom’s situation would become very dangerous. At that time, they would not dare to expose or drag Xuan City into it. Instead, they would need Xuan City’s support and assistance in the shadows more than ever. They know Xuan City’s strength and wouldn’t easily antagonize it. However, this means the deal with Xuan City would fall through.

"Damn it, where did the leak come from? Why did they get their hands on this secret?" the Priestess of Spring angrily smashed the wooden table beside her with a fist. Each transaction had always been carried out with utmost caution; even within Xuan City, only the high-ranking knew of this deal. And as for Great Chen Kingdom, needless to say, they would silence even their own nobles to protect the secret.

"Qiu, you must get all the intelligence from that girl. I need to find those traitors!" The Priestess of Spring was burning with fury, placing her hopes on the Priestess of Autumn.

What the Priestess of Spring could never have imagined was that it was her own queen who had revealed the secret.

When the Queen of Xuan City occupied Chen Yu’s body, she had complained about Great Chen’s crude methods. That the Insect God’s True Blood was highly unstable, merely a consumable, and so on.

Of course, even if the Queen of Xuan City hadn’t mentioned this, Li Changhe and the others would have figured it out eventually.

When they discovered that the berserk soldiers were affected by the "Human Guardian’s" Protection, Li Changhe had already determined they were no longer human. Coupled with the abnormalities that occurred on Jindeng before he was silenced by the squinty-eyed servant, Li Changhe had somewhat grasped the true identity of the opponent.

And Chen Yu’s plan was to influence the people of Xuan City’s outer city through dreams, making them doubtful about Xuan City.

Of course, since it was only a dream, even if the images in the dream were realistic, the people of Xuan City would at most only doubt the truth. Most of them would not take any tangible action because of a bizarre nightmare.

But when the real alien monsters appeared before them, they would recognize the truth!

The Priestess of Spring thought about blaming Great Chen Kingdom, but little did she know, the previous night while she was closely watching the inn, Chen Yu had already passed on the truth through the dream.

It was last night that posed the greatest danger in the plan; therefore, Qiu Wentian did not dare let her guard down for a moment, out of fear that Xuan City would act and wreck Chen Yu’s plan.

Luckily, because of the Priestess of Spring’s vigilance and underestimation of Chen Yu’s abilities, she missed the prime opportunity.

On the other side, Qiu Wentian quickly made her way through the streets. Her enormous and abnormal sword case caught the attention of many pedestrians.

Today was the Grand Ceremony of Xuan City, a momentous day to commemorate the great Lord of Xuan City.

Many people of Xuan City headed to the streets, ready to participate in the celebrations. And some fortunate outsiders would even become citizens of Xuan City today.

In this festive atmosphere, Qiu Wentian, an intruder, was particularly conspicuous to the people of Xuan City.

Her petite frame was dressed in strange attire, and she carried a sword case taller than herself, which instantly drew the attention of the people of Xuan City.

Qiu Wentian had already noticed that many experts were stealthily following and surrounding her.

"You act so swiftly. Too bad, you’ve already missed your last chance," Qiu Wentian’s mouth curled into a smirk, already seeing that luxurious tavern located a hundred meters away.

It was a rare four-story building in Xuan City’s outer city, where the dignified and wealthy guests from various nations gathered.

This indeed saved Qiu Wentian a lot of effort. Without enough spectators, this plan would have been difficult to pull off.

However, just as Qiu Wentian was about fifty meters away from the Peaceful Tavern, several outer city patrol teams that had received the news rushed over and stopped her.

After that, over a hundred experts from the Royal Guards of Xuan City’s inner city appeared on nearby rooftops and at the entrances of alleyways, completely surrounding her.

Seeing this show of force, local residents of Xuan City slightly backed away.

"What’s going on here? This young...lady, has she committed some crime?"

"They even dispatched the Royal Guards?"

"Could she be a spy from another country?"

The passerby all buzzed with speculation as they witnessed the scene.

One of the Royal Guards, holding a long sword, stood about ten meters from Qiu Wentian and said, "It would be in your best interest not to proceed any further. I do not wish to mar your beautiful face with scars. So, please surrender without a fight."

Qiu Wentian also stopped in her tracks and countered, "What did you say?"

The Royal Guard was taken aback, "Surrender without... without a fight."

"No. The sentence before that," Qiu Wentian pressed.

"I do not wish to mar your beautiful face..."

"Good, you have quite an eye!" Qiu Wentian chuckled. She quite enjoyed receiving compliments.

She then drew a flexible sword and the Royal Guards braced themselves, while the outer city patrol teams took up battle formations.

Next, a strange scene unfolded.

Qiu Wentian didn’t launch any attack but instead began stepping in some kind of graceful dance, her flexible sword weaving brilliant patterns in the air. Even with the scabbard on her back, she was extremely agile. Her bouncing ponytail gave her an even more valiant appearance.

Is she... dancing?

As they watched this beautiful yet dangerous sword dance.

The Royal Guards and patrol teams of Xuan City were somewhat bewildered, uncertain whether they should take action.

Had she given up resisting? Why had she started dancing?

If there were any battle-hardened players here, they wouldn’t allow Qiu Wentian to continue this dance.

Unfortunately, the people of Xuan City were not familiar with players.

A group of them just watched Qiu Wentian perform a minute-long sword dance on the street to the point that the onlookers from Xuan City even thought that Qiu Wentian was putting on a street performance.

It was then that Qiu Wentian stopped dancing and said faintly, "I really didn’t expect... that you would watch me stack up the Sword Dance three times... quite enlightening."

[Sword Dance]

[Skill Type: Enhancement]

[Effect: After performing a dance, temporarily enhance physical attacks and boost agility attribute][Stackable][Agility attribute cannot exceed one’s highest single attribute]

[Consumption: 3 physical strength points]

[Note: Will you also take up the dance?]

The effect seemed powerful.

But in fact, Qiu Wentian rarely used this skill because the enhanced state lasted for a short while, and during combat, enemies generally would not allow Qiu Wentian the opportunity to perform a Sword Dance.

Unexpectedly, here the opponents had actually let her stack the Sword Dance on herself three times.

And Qiu Wentian was primarily a strength player, with strength being her highest attribute at 13 points.

At this moment, with the triple Sword Dance boost, her agility attribute also temporarily reached 13 points.

Even if Li Changhe stood before her now, he would have to grumble and activate Extraordinary Soldier.

Then, the next second.

A streak of sword light flashed down the entire street!
