After the group of black-clad men walked away, Xuanyuan Ruize still didn't dare to make any noise, fearing that they would come back. He curled up in the bushes, nervously watching his surroundings, and every slight movement made his heart beat faster. As time passed, he felt as if he had been forgotten by the world, lonely and helpless.

After squatting in the bushes for more than half an hour, he dared to stand up carefully, secretly thanking those people for not finding him. He gently brushed off the grass and dirt on his body and began to think about what to do next. From what those people said just now, it seemed that he was still on the night he fell off the cliff. At this time, his uncle should have brought the guards to rescue him, but Kunlun Mountain is so big, can they find him?

After confirming that those people had gone far away, Xuanyuan Ruize did not dare to run around. After all, in this unfamiliar environment, any negligence could lead to danger. In fact, he knew very well that there were too many people who wanted him dead, and even his father might not really want him to live well. This complex emotion made him feel extremely heavy, and at the same time, he cherished Sister Sang's care for him even more.

Just as he was lost in thought, his hand accidentally touched the switch of the flashlight. In the dark jungle, a strong light suddenly shot up into the sky, breaking the tranquility of the night. Xuanyuan Ruize was so scared that he quickly turned off the flashlight, his heart pounding. He was worried that this beam of light would cause more trouble, and he could only pray that the men in black would not notice anything unusual and turn back.

After a moment, the little prince hurriedly turned off the high-intensity flashlight and thought to himself, it's broken.

Just as Xuanyuan Ruize thought, his people discovered the light, and the black-clothed man who had just withdrawn also discovered it:

"Brother, brother, look over there, that's where we just came from." A man in black suddenly said, pointing ahead.

"Huh? What's going on? Is there someone there?" The leading man in black frowned and looked into the distance vigilantly.

"I don't know. It seemed like something suddenly flashed and shot straight into the sky." Another man in black answered doubtfully.

"Could it be that Big Brother has revealed some treasure?" a man in black guessed excitedly.

"Idiot! Go back and have a look!" the leading black-clad man shouted. He thought to himself that if it was really a treasure, he couldn't miss this opportunity. But he was also worried that the little prince was still alive and that he and his group had been discovered. The guards must have seen this, but there was no way out now. The mission had failed, and he and his group couldn't return to the organization. Even if they went back, they would die. It would be better to take the risk and go back to fight. Maybe there was still a glimmer of hope.

The men in black immediately turned around and walked back. They approached the place where the light was coming from cautiously, holding their weapons tightly in their hands, ready to deal with any possible danger at any time.

At the same time, the guards in the jungle also discovered the light

"General, look, what's that over there?" a guard said to Xiao Yi.

Xiao Yi is Xuanyuan Ruize's uncle and Empress Xiao's younger brother.

Thinking about his nephew's situation, Xiao Yi immediately took people to look for him. He hoped that it was his nephew, but he didn't want it to be him. He had been searching in the jungle all night. The light just now was so strong that it was probably those men in black.

"Hurry up, everyone!" Xiao Yi reminded the guards behind him.

Xuanyuan Ruize, who had caused the chaos, was also a little worried. He quickly and consciously began to move, praying that his uncle would be more helpful and find him quickly.

Apparently his prayers were in vain.

"Brother, there is movement ahead." The voice of the man in black sounded.

“Go and have a look”

Xuanyuan Ruize, who was extremely panicked, suddenly remembered the scene where Sister Sang scared him a few days ago and decided to give it a try.

He looked at the man in black approaching him, put the flashlight on his chest and turned it on immediately.

"Ah... ghost... big big... big brother... did you see it?" The man in black said tremblingly with a cry of surprise mixed with fear.

The leader holding the sword tightly grasped the weapon in his hand and said calmly, "Shut up! We killed so many people, how could there be any ghosts? Someone must be playing tricks!"

"But brother, the light just now was something we have never seen before. Could it be because the person we killed this time is the prince?" a man in black asked worriedly.

Another man in black echoed, "Brother, the prince will become the ruler of a country in the future. Will there really be gods protecting him?"

The leader frowned and began to wonder in his heart, but he still said stubbornly: "Nonsense! Where do gods come from in this world? It's just some superstition! Don't be scared, keep searching!"

However, at this moment, a sinister laugh suddenly sounded around, as if it came from the depths of hell. The men in black were terrified and retreated, not daring to move forward.

At the critical moment, Xuanyuan Ruize finally got reinforcements, otherwise he would not be able to continue the performance.

"Uncle, I'm here!" Hearing the familiar voice, Xuanyuan Ruize's tense nerves finally relaxed. He shouted this sentence with all his strength, as if he had used up his last bit of strength.

The guards quickly surrounded them and protected Xuanyuan Ruize in the middle. They held weapons in hand and watched the surroundings vigilantly to ensure that there was no threat.

"Your Highness, are you okay?" Xiao Yi asked with concern. His eyes revealed deep worry and anxiety.

"I'm fine, uncle." Xuanyuan Ruize shook his head, trying to make himself look stronger. However, his pale face and weak breath could not hide the fact that he was weak.

And in Xiao Yi's eyes, how could he be okay after falling from such a high cliff?

"What about those men in black?"

"Don't worry, Your Highness, leave this to us." Xiao Yi comforted him. His eyes were firm and resolute, which made people feel at ease.

"Leave a few people to protect the prince, and the rest of you follow me." Xiao Yi gave an order and led the guards to chase after the man in black.

Looking at his uncle's back as he walked away, Xuanyuan Ruize was filled with gratitude. Whenever he was in trouble, his uncle would always step forward without hesitation and protect his safety at the cost of his life. This selfless family love and deep affection made him feel warm and at ease.

"Thank you so much this time, uncle." Xuanyuan Ruize murmured softly, with tears of emotion flashing in his eyes.

"It is our duty to protect His Highness." Xiao Yi responded, "We should not stay here for long, let's return to the palace as soon as possible."

After that, the group carefully escorted Xuanyuan Ruize out of Kunlun Mountain.
