Chapter 579: Chapter 31 Incitement
Elizabeth looked at her elder brother with icy eyes and said, “What should members of the Royal Family do?”
Find a suitable match?
Although it was common for the Royal Family to intermarry with top-tier nobility or other planetary royals, Elizabeth had no desire to have such a fate.
“Elizabeth, as a lady of high birth, it doesn’t suit you to brandish spears and swords. Your status does not require you to do these things,” Prince Charles continued. “Those who are around me are young geniuses from the Royal Knights, loyal to the Royal Family. Whomever you wish to protect you in the future, you may call upon directly; there are even stronger individuals. What’s the point of relying on your own cultivation? Can you surpass them?”
“Why can’t I?” Elizabeth retorted.
If the path of power was impassable, then cultivating to become a top-tier Transcendent would also grant absolute freedom, with no one to interfere with her.
“Zack, go and have a sparring match with Elizabeth,” Prince Charles said to a member of the Royal Knights clad in Armor at his side.
The man, dressed in Gold Battle Armor and wielding a Golden Spear, stepped forward with a heroic presence., A powerful burst of Source Power erupted from him, an A-Rating aura, which was the minimum Source Power Level for members of the Royal Knights.
The members of the Royal Knights following Prince Charles were young reserves, being groomed for the future; only his father had the authority to deploy the top-tier members.
“Your Highness, please,” Zack said, holding the Long Spear towards Elizabeth.
Elizabeth’s face turned extremely sour, revealing Charlie’s true intentions. During the day when there were others around, he still maintained some pretense, but now, with no outsiders present, he did not hesitate to suppress her.
The Royal Knights, though not of low status, were still just the guard of the Royal Family. To lay hands on Elizabeth?
A wild Source Power aura erupted from Elizabeth as she clenched her Source Power Sword and charged straight forward, turning into a streak of white light.
“Boom…” Zack stepped forward, moving as fast as lightning. He thrust his Golden Spear straight ahead, shooting a dazzling golden Energy Light. The terrifying Power current surged forward, and the sound of the air tearing resonated, domineering and absolute.
The Golden Spear collided with Elizabeth’s sword, the wild Power directly repelling the sword, and the unstoppable momentum of the Long Spear forced Elizabeth back, her Source Power Level being inevitably lower than her opponent’s.
Zack seemed to have no intention of stopping. He continued to charge, his Golden Spear bursting forth again with successive thrusts. Elizabeth, seemingly wanting to prove her strength, did not evade and instead met the attacks head-on.
“Bang, bang, bang…” After several thrusts, the strong Power forced Elizabeth’s sword from her hand, and the Golden Spear continued relentlessly until it struck Elizabeth’s Armor directly.
“Boom!” The wild Power impacted Elizabeth, causing her to grunt and her body to fly backward. She hit the ground with a hissing noise, her footsteps rapidly sliding back, struggling to stop.
Then, a figure appeared behind Elizabeth, stretching out a hand to drag her body from behind, stabilizing her from further retreat. She turned to look; it was Xu Mo.
Elizabeth wasn’t wearing her helmet, and her face turned somewhat pale, her beautiful eyes full of disappointment.
She couldn’t block the opponent’s Spear.
Even if his Source Power Level was A, she shouldn’t have been defeated so easily.
“Elizabeth, do you still think there is a point to cultivation?” Charles asked as he saw Elizabeth get repelled.
“Of course,” Elizabeth turned back, her eyes full of stubbornness. She straightened up, her energy erupting, ready to fight again.
Zack frowned slightly and looked back at Charles. Seeing Charles nod, Zack stepped forward.
“Bang…” The violent golden Energy Light swept out, Zack bathed in the radiance of golden Energy Light as he continued forward, moving towards Elizabeth. Accompanied by a loud bang, he triggered a golden Energy Storm, thrusting the Golden Spear directly at Elizabeth with terrifying force.
Elizabeth’s expression became slightly embarrassed; she sensed how strong this wave of golden energy was, but despite that, she was still unwilling to suffer humiliation.
As the Golden Spear tore through the air, about to pierce Elizabeth, she was just about to react when a gust of wind swept by and a figure suddenly appeared in front of her. Like a fleeting shadow, the figure’s energy also erupted, sword flashing forward.
The Golden Spear and the sword collided, unleashing a powerful Energy Storm that blew against Elizabeth’s face. She looked at the figure’s back, opened her mouth to say something, but ended up speechless.
Zack frowned; his Golden Spear was blocked by Xu Mo. Bursting from him was a powerful Energy Field, not inferior to Zack’s own.
“Your Highness, Prince Charles is right; you are of noble stature, and this is not befitting of Your Highness,” Xu Mo said, leaving Elizabeth stunned.
“These matters should be left to your subordinates,” Xu Mo continued.
“Who are you? Since when is it your turn to speak?” Prince Charles glanced at Xu Mo with contempt, his eyes cold. A mere guard dared to meddle in his business.
“Prince Charlie, I serve as the Princess’s guard. This man is bold and reckless, acting against Your will, daring to strike at the Princess, a crime unforgivable,” Xu Mo said as he moved forward, the ground rumbling under his step.
