TheMistGhostSwordmovedgracefully,effortlesslyslicingdownonecrystalbeeafteranotherinthesimplestandeasiestway.

Thedefeatedcrystalbeesturnedintospecksoflight,disappearingintothemist.

"That’sall?"XiaJie,leadinghistwelveBlackCavalry,lookedatthewaveofcrystalbeeswithadisdainfulexpression.TheBlackCavalry,dressedinblackswordarmor,werenotafraidofthebeestingsfromthesecrystalbeesatall.

Thesharpbeestingscouldn’tpenetratetheblackswordarmor,letalonethePrinceoftheGreatXia’sBlackFlameDragonArmor.

Evenifthousandsofthesemonsterscame,theywouldjustbescratchinganitchforhim.

Justagroupofcrystalbees,probablyatthelevelofthethirdrank,couldn’tcauseanytrouble.

"Whyareyouactingsoimpulsively?Thisisnotlikeyourusualstyle,YunQue,"XiaLingwatchedYunXiwithconfusionashejoinedthebattleagainstthecrystalbees.

AsYunXikeptannouncingtheincreasingnumbers,XiaLingcouldsensethatsomethingwaswrong,andherexpressionbecamegrim.
