After finding the Princess and hearing her description, they chose not to rescue her. Instead, they found this perfect spot for an ambush, using the Princess as bait. They just had to wait for Ning Xuan to get close before they would strike.
But the bastard didn't play by the rules at all! He showed no tenderness toward a fair maiden, not hesitating for a second to strike a princess of the realm!
Fuck! We're screwed! If the King finds out, he'll definitely exterminate our Ten Clans! Unless… we capture Ning Xuan alive! No, that won't work. His sword is too fast. In that case… we'll bring back his corpse!
The Shadow Guards rose, their gazes locked firmly on Ning Xuan. In their eyes, he was already a dead man.
WHOOSH!
A peerless beam of sword light suddenly tore through the void. Ning Xuan had taken the initiative!
