Chapter 208 Dreamlike Twin Shadows: Ice and Snow Lotus

With her within arm's reach, the Pavilion Master waved his hand and lunged towards Princess Yan'er in the middle. He touched her, but couldn't grab her. The Pavilion Master wanted to use the Ice and Snow Steps to spin Princess Yan'er out of the vortex, but at that moment, the white-haired woman was falling from the sky. The vicious woman should have landed on her feet, but at some point she flipped over and was now upside down with both hands slamming down with the Deathly Cold Palms. The Pavilion Master had no choice but to counterattack and kill her.

Standing to the side, Murong Junlan waited quietly for his opportunity. He knew that if he wanted to save his Yan'er, he had to break the large disc first. Now, taking advantage of the fact that the white-haired woman was entangled by the Pavilion Master, he swung his fine rope and struck the edge of the large disc.

With a loud clang, the large disc remained completely undamaged, though it was slightly shaken by Yan'er, who stood in the center. Murong Junlan frowned slightly; he had underestimated the power of the large disc. However, he clearly remembered the principles of breaking the vortex formation: spin without falling, break at the edge of the vortex.

He couldn't possibly be wrong. But the edge of this large disc was so hard that even the thin rope couldn't break it. What should he do? Murong Junlan no longer had time to ponder in detail. He swung the thin rope again, sweeping it around with a clang, but it remained as solid as a rock, even more solid than a rock.

Hearing the commotion, the white-haired woman tried desperately to break free from the pavilion master and hide in their direction. To be honest, she was really worried that Murong Junlan would rescue Yan'er, which would be a huge loss for her. However, the pavilion master was not someone she could easily escape from. Despite her ruthless tactics, the white-haired woman failed to escape. In a fit of anger, she threw two darts from her sleeve. These were the ones she had scavenged from Yelü Yu last time. She felt that following Murong Junlan's group had yielded some pretty good results.

The white-haired woman threw out two darts, landing in the center of the large disc as the Pavilion Master dodged. She gave Murong Junlan a sinister sneer, then, holding Yan'er in one arm, she pushed off with her feet, causing the entire large disc to spin rapidly, almost colliding with the Pavilion Master who had just landed. Fortunately, the Pavilion Master was agile, otherwise he would have suffered internal injuries.

The white-haired woman spun into the air like a large flying saucer, and Murong Junlan and the Pavilion Master both gave chase.

Murong Junlan's 360-degree desert leap, the silver ring illusion of the fine rope, and the Pavilion Master's ice lotus formation—the three masters fought fiercely, their battle creating chaos. In particular, the white-haired woman, with the large disc, was even more formidable, making the fight incredibly close.

Suddenly, Murong Junlan forcefully flung the thin rope into the sky, and the rope transformed into a giant dragon amidst the dark clouds. The dragon spun in the air, opened its mouth wide, and charged towards the white-haired woman. Although the white-haired woman had seen fire dragons before, she was somewhat unsure about this dragon formed from the thin rope. In the instant she was stunned, the Pavilion Master's Ice Lotus Blade also came up.

Ah, big guy, besieged from all sides, the white-haired woman is a bit confused, because she has to take care of Yan'er beside her, and also control such a big guy.

With a snap, the white-haired woman took a blow to the shoulder from the sect leader. Immediately afterward, the thin fire dragon also rushed over. This time, the white-haired woman had no choice but to crouch down, using Yan'er's body to block the fire dragon. At this moment, Yan'er's body moved, and the thin rope in her pocket shot out, instantly transforming into a fire dragon as well. The two fire dragons collided, their mouths wide open, and they both pounced on the white-haired woman.

A dreamlike pair of figures? The Pavilion Master looked up at the brilliantly colored clouds in the sky, his heart filled with awe, followed by a soft sigh that he himself didn't even realize he was letting out. Ten thousand years! He had once witnessed such a breathtaking and magnificent scene on a glazed rooftop, a unique display of martial arts prowess between Murong Junlan and Princess Yan'er. He still clearly remembered Princess Yan'er's awe-inspiring words: "A meeting of wind and clouds."

The Pavilion Master's eyes suddenly welled up with tears. No matter how many years passed, the world of the Twin Shadows of Dreams always belonged to Prince Murong and his princess. He, from beginning to end, could only ever be a bodyguard! As a bodyguard, how could he possibly harbor any thoughts of transgression? He suddenly felt remorse, and with a swift turn of his lotus-shaped blade, he thrust it straight at himself.

Clang! The Ice Lotus Blade shattered on the ground. It was Murong Junlan who intervened. Although Murong Junlan harbored resentment towards the Pavilion Master who had forcibly detained his beloved concubine, the Pavilion Master's willingness to fight the white-haired woman made him suddenly realize that the Pavilion Master wasn't entirely irredeemable. He even wanted to know if there was a story between them, so he, as the Pavilion Master, couldn't die. In short, without fully considering it, he intervened to save the situation, or perhaps the Pavilion Master could even lend him a hand now.

He didn't care when Luo Xie snatched his Yan'er to marry him, and Murong Dubai is still pestering them, isn't he? But compared to Luo Xie and Murong Dubai, this Pavilion Master seems to have a more interesting story.

With a hiss, the white-haired woman launched a frenzied counterattack, even managing to tear a piece of Murong Junlan's robe. The Pavilion Master's other ice blade instantly blocked it. Murong Junlan's earlier slow move felt like a gentle spring breeze to the Pavilion Master's heart, leaving him filled with shame.

The Pavilion Master has made his decision: no matter how many reincarnations pass, he will be Prince Murong and Princess Yan'er's secret bodyguard for countless lifetimes. Indeed, some loves, as long as there's the chance to silently accompany each other, can be a lifetime of happiness hidden in the heart.
