Chapter 333 It’s Really A Misunderstanding

In a flash, Ou Yangming vanished from his original spot and he immediately appeared within the courtyard.

At that moment, Du Gaoge was lowering his head and bowing in a certain direction.

Nevertheless, Ou Yangming sped forward without an ounce of hesitation, at a breakneck speed that he had never reached before.

A blur moved past Du Gaoge’s eyes, and all he felt was a strong gust that came out of nowhere, sending chills down his spine, and causing him to shiver.

Ou Yangming moved like a bolt of lightning, as ever since he mastered the body technique during the Myriad Treasure Meet, his physical abilities had risen considerably, and at that moment, he was utilizing every ounce of juice he had within his body. A mere instant later, he had finally caught up to the carriage.

He hastily extended his hands forward and reigned the horses back.

The two horses cried out in pain as Ou Yangming forcefully reined them back. “Who are you?” “How dare you! Let go!”

“An assassin—”

Several of the guards assigned to guard the carriage were shocked. Their life in the city had made them complacent, and they had never expected a sudden attack like this. Due to this, they were unable to respond at a moment’s notice, but the moment the carriage stopped, they finally swung into action.

Three sabers and a longsword were unsheathed and brought down on Ou Yangming’s body. However, Ou Yangming’s body flickered, and like a fish swimming gracefully within waters, Ou Yangming avoided all the attacks and leaped onto the top of the carriage. The color drained from the faces of the four guards as they stared at Ou Yangming in shock. By this point, there was nothing they could do, as they dared not attack the carriage, for fear of harming whoever was in it.

Moreover, since those guards were only Yin Grade at best, there was no reason for Ou Yangming to be concerned about them. Once he was free of their interruption, he then drew the curtains and entered the carriage. Just before he entered, however, he caught a whiff of the fragrance that was being emitted from within the carriage.

At this moment, a small part of him told him that something was amiss.

Nevertheless, he must obtain every single Recording Stone Bai Shixue had, and there was no room for negotiation.

With that, his blood began to boil, and he exuded a murderous aura, so powerful that it felt as if the god of killing had descended upon mankind. He was going to attempt to subdue Bai Shixue by force so that she had no room to resist.

However, the moment he entered the carriage and laid his murderous eyes on the person before him, his fearsome aura was washed away as if he was suddenly caught in a one-in-a-million-year blizzard, and he froze.

Ou Yangming stammered, “Y-You… Why are you in here?”

There was indeed a woman within the carriage, and she was one who was full of poise and dignity.

Even though she was faced with such a sudden turn of events, the woman did not panic, and instead, she had responded only by unsheathing the long sword on her lap. Not only that, but the woman was also staring at Ou Yangming with an enigmatic expression, as if she was attempting to figure out his actions.

The woman was not Bai Shixue who had just left Ou Yangming’s courtyard, but rather, she was the imperial family’s princess, Wu Hanning

Although Ou Yangming was by no means a shy person, the fact that he had audaciously barged into the princess’ carriage was still an awkward situation.

“Whistle-“

A sharp whistling sound rang out from outside the carriage. It was a signal that was played only when a member of the imperial family was attacked. As such, the moment the whistle was heard, the entire city was instantly startled into motion. All the city gates were instantly locked, and several powerhouses were deployed, all so that the culprit had no way to leave.

Every single strand of hair on Ou Yangming’s body was raised on end as he hurriedly waved his hand and shouted, “This is a misunderstanding! A misunderstanding!”

A sword-light could be seen being emitted from outside the carriage, and there was a certain ferocity to its glow. Nevertheless, the sword-light remained stationary out of concern for the individual within the carriage.

Ou Yangming’s heart froze. He could sense an unbelievably aggressive yet cold-blooded killing intent coming off the sword-light. Had this been any other occasion, Ou Yangming would not back down. However, as he was currently the aggressor, he dared not harm the person outside.

Without giving it any thought, Ou Yangming entered the state of integration of Heaven and man and the thoroughly meticulous. With that, Ou Yangming then projected a likeness of himself and allowed the sword to plunge into his projection while he ran away from the other door of the carriage.

“Huff—”.

A powerful fist wind was launched towards his direction. It had come from a Yang Grade armored young man from outside the carriage, and although he looked handsome, there was also a coldness to his expression.

Although Ou Yangming had dodged his first strike, the young man was not disappointed at all. Since Her Highness was also in the carriage, he did not put much force into his blow, as his goal was only to force Ou Yangming out of the vehicle.

However, upon spotting Ou Yangming, the man’s expression instantly turned vicious as he launched a fist towards Ou Yangming. The punch had carried all of the young man’s strength, and upon unleashing the blow, the whole city quaked. Ou Yangming chuckled bitterly to himself. Although part of him had wanted to curse the living hell out of Bai Shixue, the rational part of him knew that he needed to deal with his current predicament first.

Ou Yangming extended his hand to receive the man’s punch, and the moment he did so, the overwhelming power that was contained within the man’s fist surged forward and threatened to shatter Ou Yangming to pieces. Nevertheless, at that moment, Ou Yangming’s body was as light as a feather, and he constantly swayed around as if he was a leaf dancing in the wind.

This was a special skill that he had mastered through his advancement into the Yang Grade combined with the body techniques that he had picked up during the Myriad Treasure Meet.

Using his Essential Qi, his integration of Heaven and man state, and certain body techniques, Ou Yangming had become impervious to damage.

Naturally, had his opponent been a Supreme Great Ancestor, Ou Yangming would have hesitated to pull this move. However, as he was only facing a Yang Grade powerhouse, there was no need to hold back.

The young man was slightly startled at how easy Ou Yangming had diffused his blow. In response, he howled and launched a powerful sword-light in Ou Yangming’s direction. This time, he did not hold anything back, and as a
