Spirit King's Mansion, Capturing Princess Zhao

On the other side, Zhao Shanshan and her sister were rushing back to the Xiling Empire's Imperial Palace. Suddenly, Zhao Yingying stopped in her tracks.

"Yingying, what's wrong?"

Seeing her imperial sister suddenly stop, Zhao Shanshan asked with some confusion. They were in a hurry! Why did she just stop there and not move?

"Imperial Sister, do you think those three people flying through the air just now might be Young Master Mu's people!"

Zhao Yingying suddenly remembered that they had only left Laga Village not long ago, and there was no one else in the Thunder Mountain Range.

How could it be such a coincidence that three people flew past them? That's why Zhao Yingying suspected that Mu Feiyang might have sent people to kill Princess Zhao in the Imperial City.

"No way!"

"Young Master Mu only has himself and his daughter, we've never seen anyone else! Maybe they were just passing by!"

"Imperial Sister, since Young Master Mu has a daughter, he must have a wife, but we haven't seen her either!"

"Perhaps those three people just now were sent by Young Master Mu! Young Master Mu is so mysterious, isn't it normal that we don't know?"

"So, I think we should tell Imperial Father. It wouldn't be good if Imperial Father offended Young Master Mu's people."

Zhao Yingying was convinced that the three people just now were sent by Mu Feiyang because it was too coincidental. They had just left Laga Village, and immediately three people appeared from one direction.

Moreover, the direction they left was precisely towards their Xiling Empire's Imperial Palace, which made Zhao Yingying suspicious.

"Well, what you said makes sense. Let's inform Imperial Father first!"

Zhao Shanshan thought about it and felt that Zhao Yingying's words were reasonable, so she took out her communication jade pendant and sent a message to her Imperial Father.

After sending the message, the two continued to rush back. At this time, Zhao Wuji, in the Imperial Palace, looked extremely displeased after receiving the message from his daughter.

He originally thought that the second prince had set up this whole scheme, but he didn't expect it to be the eldest prince. Furthermore, the eldest prince's actions had completely enraged Zhao Wuji.

Afterward, Zhao Wuji quickly summoned the Spirit Guards back. After the Spirit Guards returned, Zhao Wuji issued an order to control all of Princess Zhao's henchmen.

After issuing this order, Princess Zhao summoned the Old Ancestor of the Zhao imperial family and headed straight for the eldest prince's palace.

Meanwhile, Little Black and the other two, led by soldiers, had arrived in front of Princess Zhao's mansion.

"Senior, this Spirit King's Mansion is the First Prince's residence."

"You're not needed here anymore, you can leave."

Little Black said to the soldier before walking towards the Spirit King's Mansion. Since the target had been found, it was time to complete the mission.

"Halt, this is the First Prince's Spirit King's Mansion, no one is allowed to trespass."

Puchi!

Puchi!

Little Black unleashed two streams of magical power, killing the guards. Without even glancing at the fallen guards, he muttered, "I'm here to kill people from the Spirit King's Mansion. Since you admit it, hurry up and reincarnate!"

As the three entered the Spirit King's Mansion, they were met with a spacious garden. Stone paths wound through the garden, connecting it all.

There were also patrols of soldiers in the garden. Upon seeing the arrival of Little Black and the other two, a squad of ten soldiers quickly appeared before them.

"Three, may I ask why you've come to the Spirit King's Mansion?"

Since the two guards Little Black had killed were outside the gate, and Little Black and the other two were now blocking the entrance, the soldiers hadn't noticed that the two guards at the entrance had already been killed.

Anyone who could enter here must have been checked by the guards at the gate. They just didn't know who these three were looking for.

"To kill!"

As soon as Little Black finished speaking, before the soldiers could react, he made his move. In an instant, the squad of ten soldiers was wiped out by Little Black.

At the same time Little Black attacked, Chang Li and Tian Long beside him also moved, each heading towards other patrolling soldiers.

However, as Little Black was killing the soldiers, the soldiers in the distance also noticed something was wrong and quickly sounded the alarm for an enemy attack.

Despite the alarm being sounded, the fate of these soldiers was predictable; they were all quickly eliminated by the three.

"Let's each take a direction!"

"When you find Princess Zhao, remember to check her connections carefully to avoid any mistakes."

"Okay!"

Just after the alarm sounded, in a study deep within the mansion, a young man and an old man were playing chess.

"What's going on? Why is there an alarm?"

Hearing the alarm, the young man stopped his chess move and said with a slight frown, "Why get angry, my disciple!"

"This is the Spirit King's Mansion. Who would dare cause trouble here? The guards should be able to handle it quickly, and there's also an elder from my Heavenly Wolf Sect here."

"We're not afraid even if your Zhao imperial family's Old Ancestor comes. However, if my disciple is worried, we can go out and take a look."

The old man looked at the slightly angry Princess Zhao and explained confidently. The old man's identity was not simple; he was a Grand Elder of the Heavenly Wolf Sect named Bei Cun.

Bei Cun was also Princess Zhao's master. Princess Zhao's current influence was largely due to Bei Cun's covert support and backing.

"Master, let's go out and take a look then!"

Although Princess Zhao heard her master say this, she couldn't shake off a feeling of unease, the reason being that the Death Warriors she had dispatched on a mission had yet to send back any news.

As the two left the study, a strong smell of blood wafted towards them. Both their faces changed drastically. How many people would have to be killed to produce such a potent scent of blood?

Just as the two were about to reach the palace entrance, the previously closed doors were forcefully smashed open. Then, a figure was sent flying backward, crashing onto the ground.

Following that, a woman walked into the palace, appearing before Princess Zhao and Bei Cun.

"Who are you? How dare you barge into my Spirit King's Mansion and kill so many of my people? Aren't you afraid you won't be able to leave here alive?"

Looking at the stranger who had suddenly appeared, although she was the most beautiful woman Princess Zhao had ever seen, it was clear this woman was not someone easy to deal with.

"You must be Princess Zhao!"

The woman who entered was none other than Chang Li, one of the trio that included Little Black. All three had chosen a direction for their slaughter, and Chang Li had happened to come here.

"That's right, it is I, this Princess."

"Good, then hand over your life!"

Upon hearing Princess Zhao's confirmation, a smile appeared on Chang Li's face. Princess Zhao had finally fallen into her hands.

After speaking, Chang Li reached out and pulled, and Princess Zhao was immediately pulled uncontrollably toward Chang Li.

In an instant, Princess Zhao was before Chang Li, her head grasped by Chang Li's outstretched hand. A scream then erupted from Princess Zhao's mouth.
