The princess has super powers and space, so what's wrong with being a little arrogant?

Xiao Yibai came back to his senses after hearing her words, "The Qilin Guards all started practicing martial arts at the age of four or five, and they are all selected from hundreds of thousands, so naturally their martial arts skills are high. Internal skills also need to be practiced from a young age to achieve great success. If you want to practice internal skills, you can still achieve some results if you start now, but your achievements will not be too high."

Mu Xiyue was a little disappointed, but she quickly adjusted her mood. Her special abilities were not found in this world. To be honest, her special abilities were more powerful.

"What about you? Who's more powerful, you or the Qilin Guard?"

Xiao Yibai curled his lips, "What do you think?"

Mu Xiyue thought for a moment and said, "Judging from the way you fought last night, I think you're still a bit stronger. Qiyun isn't bad either. It seems like Qiyun can at least fight the Qilin Guard on equal terms."

Qi Yun came over with Xiao Tao, holding half a roast chicken, and just in time heard Mu Xiyue's words, "Miss Mu, my martial arts can match two of the Qilin Guards at once. I will definitely not lose in a one-on-one fight with them."

Xiao Yibai took the chicken handed to him by Qi Yun and tore off a chicken leg for Mu Xiyue. Mu Xiyue was really disgusted. She didn't like to eat this early in the morning, but she still took it and took a bite. She felt like she was back in the apocalypse and spending the night in the wild with her teammates. She chuckled and wondered why he became so pretentious.

Xiao Tao sat down on the ground nearby and asked with a smile, "You two are so powerful now, so why were you so embarrassed when we first met?"

Qi Yun was a little embarrassed. "We were poisoned that time. That poison can suppress internal strength. And we only had four secret guards with us, so that's why it happened. Fortunately, we met you and Miss Mu that time."

With a slight fluttering sound, a bird the size of a sparrow landed on Qiyun's shoulder. Qiyun reached out and grabbed the bird, took a small paper roll from the bird's leg, unfolded it, took a look at it, and handed it to Xiao Yibai.

Mu Xiyue was very curious about this little bird. She had heard of carrier pigeons before, but this little bird was definitely not a pigeon. It was really rare that it could be trained to be a messenger bird, and it was so small.

Xiao Yibai's face turned grim after he read the note. Mu Xiyue leaned over and asked, "What's wrong? Did something happen?"

Xiao Yibai handed the note to Mu Xiyue, "Take a look!"

There was only one sentence on the note: Prince Rui asked to marry Miss Mu as his concubine, and Marquis Anyuan went to the imperial study with him. The emperor did not agree, and the matter will be discussed after Miss Mu returns to Beijing.

Mu Xiyue's face also darkened. "That damn bastard Mu Fengnian, and that bastard Rui Wang, I will make them regret provoking me when I go back."

The six Qilin Guards all looked over. Mu Xiyue raised her eyebrows and said, "I scolded Prince Rui. Are you planning to complain to the Emperor?"

One of the Qilin Guards said, "Miss Mu, we didn't hear what you just said."

Xiao Yibai rubbed her head and said, "It's okay. It doesn't matter if I scold you. As long as I'm here, the emperor won't do anything to you."

Mu Xiyue shrank her neck. Patting her head seemed a bit too intimate. She chuckled a few times to hide her pounding heart. Damn, this bastard Xiao Yibai, it's ok that he's good-looking, but he's so gentle and seductive!

She concealed her panic and said, "What kind of bird is this? It can deliver messages. I only knew about carrier pigeons before."

Xiao Yibai said, "This bird is called the Green Oriole. It's very human-like and can fly twice as fast as a carrier pigeon. It can also fly higher than other birds and carrier pigeons. Carrier pigeons are large and easily shot down, while Green Orioles are small and fly high, making them difficult to spot. Furthermore, only my people have Green Orioles."

They did not avoid the Qilin Guards when they spoke or did anything, and Xiao Yibai said that the Qilin Guards were sent by the emperor to protect him, so the emperor should know everything about them. Then the emperor probably also knew about the matter between her and Xiao Yibai, so he did not agree to Prince Rui's proposal.

But did Mu Fengnian and King Rui reach any new agreement?

Mu Xiyue told Mu Fengnian everything that happened before she came out, including showing off her healing skills in front of him, and asked him to analyze whether there was any connection between the killer last night and what was written on the note.

"So what you're saying is that Mu Fengnian thinks you have a special physique that can heal wounds automatically and even dissolve poisons on your body. And that technique you mentioned that freezes people is also real?"

Mu Xiyue nodded, "Yes, of course it's true."

After she finished speaking, she glanced at the Qilin Guards, but they had no expression on their faces.

"Then it's possible that he told Prince Rui about you. Prince Rui wanted to take you in, so he came to the palace to ask for a marriage from my father. But I already told my father that I wanted to marry you as my principal wife, so he wouldn't agree. The people from the Soul-Snatching Pavilion might be Prince Rui or Mu Fengnian targeting you. They're unsure of your martial arts skills, so they came to the Soul-Snatching Pavilion."

The order that Soul-Seeking Pavilion has taken on is a fight to the death. After their complete defeat this time, they will definitely send out more assassins, and the level of the assassins sent out later will definitely be higher.

Mu Xiyue used to only want to live a lazy life, so she never understood these things. Even if she wanted to understand, there was no place to learn. Now that she has met her, she still wants to know more.

"You said the assassins of Soul-Seizing Pavilion are divided into different levels?"

Xiao Yibai was a little worried. "Well, the highest rank in the Soul-Seizing Pavilion is the Pavilion Master. He calls himself the Supreme Killer. His martial arts skills are superior to mine, and he won't take action easily. It's said that he hasn't personally taken action in five years. Slightly below the Pavilion Master is the Diamond Killer. I don't know how skilled he is. The next rank below is the Platinum Killer, and below that are the Gold Killer and the Silver Killer. I don't know what rank the killer was who came last night. I've never encountered one before."

Mu Xiyue felt a strange familiarity when she heard the killer ranking titles: Supreme, Diamond, Platinum, Gold, Silver. It seemed like there were no such things as Diamond and Platinum in this era. Aren't these the rank titles of modern mobile games? Could that Pavilion Master also be a time traveler?

Mu Xiyue was afraid that she was ignorant, so she asked, "Xiao Yibai, do you know what diamonds and platinum are? And how do you know so much about them?"

"Diamond and platinum are probably just the names used by Soul Seekers to distinguish between assassin ranks. These aren't secrets. Their assassin ranks are public, and mission rewards are tied to assassin ranks."

Mu Xiyue already had a plan in mind. There was a high chance that the leader of the Soul-Seeking Pavilion was also a time traveler. If she had the chance to meet him, she could test him. She didn't know whether the leader was a soul from before the apocalypse or after the apocalypse. If he was a soul from after the apocalypse, he might have superpowers. In that case, she might not have a chance of winning. She had also encountered people who were stronger than her in the apocalypse.

After the sky brightened, the group set off again. By noon, they had left the Funiu Mountains and walked for another quarter of an hour before arriving at a small town.

To Mu Xiyue's surprise, the blacksmith of the only blacksmith shop in the town had also disappeared.

Another blacksmith is missing. Xiao Yibai and Mu Xiyue both thought of the missing blacksmith in Yunyou City, fearing that the two may be related.
