Being a princess in a world with more men than women

In the past, Lin Aoyuan was always arrogant and domineering in front of Xu Yuexi, but when his life was at stake, his cowardly nature was exposed.

Seeing that his life was about to be in danger, his heart, which had been blinded by arrogance and selfishness, finally remembered all the good things about Xu Yuexi.

His face was filled with fear, and he asked Xu Yuexi for help in a trembling voice:

"My dear daughter-in-law, I am your father-in-law, you can't just stand by and watch me die! I have been so unkind to you in the past, I hope you can be magnanimous and not hold it against me! As long as you save me, from now on, I will take good care of you and love you in every way!"

Xu Yuexi turned a deaf ear to Lin Aoyuan's call for help.

What does it mean to care and love in every possible way?

She wouldn't believe a word of it!

Judging from his usual behavior, even if she saved him from the brink of life and death this time, he would definitely not have the slightest gratitude. Instead, he would become even more aggressive, racking his brains, and using any means necessary to take her life.

After all, how could a man as cruel as him who could kill even his own son show mercy to her, his daughter-in-law?

Seeing that Xu Yuexi remained indifferent despite his humble plea, Lin Aoyuan placed his hope on Lin Zining again.

"Ning'er, Ning'er, I am your royal grandfather, please ask your mother to save me.

I know I was wrong. From now on, I will be a good grandfather and a leisurely emperor. I will stay in my palace and never cause trouble again. From now on, I will leave the country to you and your mother to manage, okay?"

After hearing this, Lin Zining felt reluctant, but after looking at her mother's determined expression, she shook her head.

She has never had a good impression of Lin Aoyuan. Between her grandfather and her mother, she would of course choose to stand on Xu Yuexi's side without hesitation.

Seeing this, Lin Aoyuan was completely desperate. He glared at Xu Yuexi and her daughter fiercely, his eyes full of resentment, and cursed at them directly.

After all, Lin Zining was still a child, and her young heart was not as tough and strong as Xu Yuexi's. When she heard Lin Aoyuan angrily accusing her of being unfilial, she felt countless grievances welling up in her heart, and tears welled up in her eyes.

At this moment, Lin Zining also understood why Xu Yuexi did not help. To be unfilial, such a royal grandfather might be better for her father, the emperor and the queen mother if he died.

Xu Yuexi looked at Lin Aoyuan, who was chattering incessantly and causing headaches, with an impatient look on her face, and her disgust grew stronger.

People like this deserve to die!

Her brows were tightly furrowed, a cold light flashed in her beautiful eyes, and then an even more powerful pressure suddenly burst out from her!

Suddenly, Lin Aoyuan felt his breathing stagnate, and the air around him seemed to become thinner. The black-robed man who had originally tried to threaten Xu Yuexi with Lin Aoyuan now looked as pale as paper.

Because he was horrified to find that no matter what means he used, it was completely ineffective in front of the powerful Xu Yuexi.

Forget it, since he is going to die anyway today, he has to take someone with him before he dies.

Because in his opinion, if the information provided by Lin Aoyuan was not wrong, he would not have offended such a terrifying Jindan master, and how could he end up in such a situation? So even if he died, he wanted Lin Aoyuan to accompany him to hell!

The black-robed man had a hideous and twisted face, and his eyes revealed despair and madness. He roared to the sky, and then his body began to tremble violently, and a powerful and violent energy continuously emerged from his body.

As this energy continued to accumulate, the black-robed man's clothes were instantly torn into pieces, and a strong wind howled around him. His skin gradually turned red, as if it was burning.

Suddenly, a dazzling light burst out from the chest of the man in black robe, illuminating everything around him, and then the man in black robe exploded like a bomb!

Seeing that the man in black was about to self-destruct, Xu Yuexi did not try to stop him. Instead, she grabbed Lin Zining beside her and quickly ran backwards.

At the same time, she quickly formed seals with her hands and chanted something. A powerful spiritual power gushed out of her body, instantly forming an extremely solid barrier in front of them. This barrier flashed with a light blue light, like a transparent shield, protecting them tightly.

As for the others, they either fled in panic or stood there in despair, waiting for death to come. The whole scene was in chaos, with fear and despair filling the air.

With a deafening roar, the shock wave from the explosion swept around like a huge wave. In an instant, the originally magnificent and imposing hall was destroyed beyond recognition.

The hall was filled with a messy and shocking scene:

Broken eaves and broken tiles scattered on the ground like raindrops, while those ministers who were once majestic and powerful were lying on the cold ground in all directions. Their bodies had long lost their vitality, and some were even incomplete. Blood dyed large areas of the floor tiles red, and the air was filled with a strong and pungent smell of blood.

However, Xu Yuexi and Lin Zining stood aside unscathed. Not only that, but even the ministers who followed them were all safe and sound as well.

If someone takes a closer look, they will find an interesting phenomenon:

All of these people who were able to escape safely and unharmed were ministers who had firmly supported Xu Yuexi during the court session just now.

Fang Chang Xu Yuexi led Lin Zining to retreat to the ministers, and the purpose of her setting up the barrier was to protect these people. Otherwise, with Xu Yuexi's ability, she could have taken Lin Zining and disappeared without a trace.

Xu Yuexi is a person who has a clear distinction between love and hate. She will do her utmost to protect those who are good to her, but she will never care about the life or death of those who have bad intentions towards her.

Those ministers were scolding her happily just now, so why should she protect them in this critical moment?

She did not stop the man in black from self-destructing because she hoped to take this opportunity to kill all those selfish ministers who only cared about their own gains and losses without caring about the safety of the country and the interests of the people.

After all, if such a group of people stayed in the court, they would only become a stumbling block to the development of the Flame Nation.

Don't blame her for being cruel. To be honest, she was very kind by not doing it herself.

As for Lou Moyu, when he slowly opened his eyes, he felt that all the fatigue and pain in his body were swept away. He knew without thinking that it must be Xu Yuexi who fed him the precious elixir that allowed him to recover so quickly.

He looked around, but he couldn't find Xu Yuexi. He couldn't help wondering: where did she go? Was she lying to him before he fainted?

Thinking of this, Lou Moyu suddenly turned over and jumped up from the bed. He wanted to find her!

However, before Lou Moyu could put on his clothes, he heard a deafening noise.

"Not good!" Lou Moyu's heart tightened, and an ominous premonition instantly surged into his mind, "Something must have happened to her!"

Lou Moyu didn't hesitate at all, and didn't even have time to tidy up his messy clothes. He ran straight towards the direction of the explosion like an arrow.
