Chapter 290: Two hundred ninety, make way!
"Guards, heed my command, capture that great thief Yun Xiao who dares to steal the Royal Treasure!"
The excited Guard Captain did not hesitate at all and shouted his command, followed by his dozen or so guards taking a step closer toward Yun Xiao and Ling Wan, further constricting their surrounding space.
Seeing this, Yun Xiao’s expression turned rather unsightly. These Ningfeng City guards, at best, were only in the early stage of the Meridian Rushing Realm, and he wouldn’t take them seriously.
However, since the Royal Family had already issued an arrest warrant, there were probably more than just these dozen City Lord’s Mansion guards who wanted to capture him.
In Ningfeng City, even the Zhao Family Head had already reached the early stage of the Meridian Union Realm. Yun Xiao believed that the City Lord wouldn’t be much weaker than Zhao Huan. If he were to attract the attention of the City Lord, Yun Xiao really might find himself in a situation where even wings couldn’t help him escape.
Now, Yun Xiao was without the backup of the Golden Snake Worm. Even though he had broken through to the middle stage of the Meridian Rushing Realm, he couldn’t possibly stand a chance against a cultivator in the Meridian Union Realm.
"My apologies!"
Thus, Yun Xiao made a swift decision, not wanting to linger here any longer. As soon as the words left his mouth, he pushed Ling Wan’s back with his right palm and shouted again, "Ling Wan, clear the way with Mixed Element Qi!"
With a push from Yun Xiao and hearing his words, Ling Wan did not dare to delay. Running his Meridian Qi, he transformed into a large round meatball under the astonished gaze of the crowd.
"Eh? Isn’t this the Zhao Family’s useless kid?"
