Mu Xue and Mu Xue

Mu Xue held a white piece in her hand, hovering it in the air for a long time before gently dropping it. The corners of her mouth curled up slightly, revealing a smug smile: "Sister Ziyuan, with this move, I'm going to have the upper hand."

Ziyuan was calm and composed, his eyes sharp as torches as he examined the chessboard. His fingertips stroked the black piece, and after thinking for a moment, with a "pop", the black piece landed steadily on the chessboard. "Xue'er, don't be too happy too soon. It's still uncertain who will win." The two of them went back and forth, immersed in the world of chess, with laughter and joy heard from time to time.

Just when the two of them were having fun, a burst of chaotic footsteps suddenly came from outside, coming closer and closer.

But Ziyuan and Muxue were immersed in the chess game and ignored the sound. They were still focused on the maneuvers on the chessboard and discussed their next move in a low voice.

Although their voices were small, they carried through the quiet atmosphere and attracted the attention of the group of people outside.

"She must be in there. Come on, let's go in and give her a warning first!" said a heavily made-up woman viciously.

The woman had a graceful figure and a pretty face, but her eyes revealed a sense of arrogance and domineering.

She was dressed in gorgeous clothes, silk and satin, and the pearl and jade jewelry on her head jingled with her movements, showing her extraordinary status.

The other women in the group were all dressed in gorgeous clothes and had exquisite makeup, but they seemed a little timid under the aura of the leading woman. They just followed her silently and did not dare to say much.

The leading woman came to the door of the lounge, and before she even entered, she yelled in a sinister voice: "Wow - you just arrived and you're staying in Qionghua Palace, and the treatment is so good!

Having so much fun in there, you've never even seen it before~" After saying that, she let out a soft and artificial laugh like green tea.

The women behind her hurriedly echoed her laughter, which sounded particularly harsh and unpleasant in the quiet Qionghua Palace.

After the woman said this, she reached out and pushed the door open with a bang.

The scene in the room made her stunned for a moment. Her originally arrogant expression froze instantly, replaced by seriousness and fear.

She stared at the two strangers in the room with wide eyes and shouted in disbelief, "Who are you! How dare you trespass into Qionghua Palace! This is a serious crime! And you're actually playing with it!"

Ziyuan and Muxue pretended not to hear and continued to stare at the chessboard.

Muxue frowned slightly, thinking about the flaws in the chess game; Ziyuan looked indifferent, tapping the table lightly with his fingers, as if calculating the next move.

Seeing that both of them ignored her, the woman suddenly felt that her dignity was greatly challenged. The fear on her face disappeared instantly, replaced by burning anger.

She gritted her teeth, rushed to Muxue's side, stretched out her hand and grabbed Muxue's hair, and roared viciously: "How dare you ignore me! I am the eldest daughter of the Wang family! Princess Ning! How dare you ignore me! What crime should you be punished for!"

Mu Xue's scalp hurt from the sudden violence, and her eyes were instantly filled with tears. She bit her lower lip tightly, said nothing, and her eyes were full of stubbornness.

Seeing this, Ziyuan's eyes flashed with a cold light, and he moved as fast as lightning, instantly grabbing the wrist of the woman who claimed to be Princess Ning.

Before Princess Ning could react, she heard a crisp "click" and her wrist fell limply - her hand was broken!

“Ah——!” Princess Ning screamed and collapsed to the ground, holding her severed wrist in her hands. Her face was as pale as paper and she was sweating profusely. “What did you do to me?

"My hand! My hand hurts so much! Someone come and save me! General in golden armor! Come quickly! Come quickly! Someone is trying to assassinate me! Come quickly!" She rolled on the ground, shouting at the top of her lungs, her voice echoing in the Qionghua Palace.

This scene frightened the other women who came with her so much that their faces turned pale. They all took a few steps back, not daring to breathe.

They looked at Princess Ning lying on the ground and Zi Yuan with a stern expression in horror, fearing that if they were not careful, they would suffer the same fate as Princess Ning.

However, there was a woman in the crowd who was ignorant of the consequences and wanted to get close to Princess Ning and stood up.

She trembled slightly, but still mustered up the courage to shout, "How dare you! Do you know that the person on the ground is Princess Ning! The Third Prince's fiancée!

If you hurt her, the Third Prince will not let you go!" These women usually rely on the power of Princess Ning to show off their power in the mansion, but their own strength is not strong, and most of them are in the early stage of the Soul Realm.

At this moment, they could only pin their hopes on the Golden Armored General who was secretly protecting Princess Ning. Although she was afraid, the woman still had a glimmer of hope and wanted to take a gamble that the woman in front of her who dared to attack Princess Ning could not defeat the Golden Armored General.

However, this woman's wishful thinking was completely wrong.

Just as she finished speaking, a golden light flashed, and the golden-armored general appeared like a ghost, rushing towards Ziyuan with great momentum.

In the eyes of these women, the Golden Armored General is their savior. As long as he takes action, the arrogant woman in front of them will definitely be subdued.

But they never expected that Ziyuan's reaction would be even faster.

Ziyuan's eyes flashed, and her figure moved like lightning. In the blink of an eye, she appeared in front of the golden-armored general.

Before the golden-armored general could react, he felt a huge force coming from his chest. He was struck by lightning and fell heavily to the ground with a "bang".

Ziyuan landed steadily on the golden-armored general, stepped hard on his chest with one foot, and pinned him down.

The golden-armored general struggled hard, but found that his body was as if pressed down by a mountain and he could not move at all.

At the same time, Ziyuan's other hand had already grasped the Ziyun Potian Spear without him noticing when.

The tip of the gun flashed with a cold light and was firmly pressed against the neck of the golden-armored general. As long as she exerted a little force, she could easily take his life.

"Are you guys annoying?" Zi Yuan's face was full of impatience, his eyes full of disdain as he glanced at everyone in the room, "What a bullshit Princess Ning, you're nothing in front of me.

I will kill him right now, believe it or not, she won't even dare to fart!

You guys are always so troublesome. Do you really think that just because you are pretty and have climbed up the social ladder, you can turn a wild chicken into a phoenix? " Ziyuan's voice was icy cold, and every word seemed to be frosty, making everyone present shiver.

Princess Ning collapsed to the ground, looking at the scene in front of her, her face turned pale as paper with fear, her lips trembled constantly, but she couldn't say a word.

She originally thought that as long as the Golden Armor General took action, this trouble could be easily solved, but the reality terrified her.

The women who came with her were now all frightened and stood there like wooden chickens, their previous arrogance had long since disappeared without a trace.

Ziyuan wanted to say something else when there was suddenly a commotion at the door.

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw Yun Yuyao squeezing in from the crowd.

She was dressed in a white dress as white as snow, and her figure was light and graceful, like a blooming white lotus, fresh and refined.

There was a hint of anxiety on her face. She had obviously heard the noise over here and hurried over to see what was going on.

"Yuyao, don't worry about it. Just continue reading. This is none of your business." Ziyuan's expression softened slightly when he saw Yun Yuyao and said to her.

In Ziyuan's heart, Yun Yuyao has always been a simple and kind girl, and she doesn't want these troubles to affect her.

Yun Yuyao was stunned for a moment, a hint of determination flashed in her clear eyes, and she said softly: "I'll wait here with you, it should start soon." After that, she walked to Muxue with light steps.

Seeing Mu Xue still covering her head with her hands, frowning, and eyes full of pain, Yun Yuyao felt a pain in her heart.

She gently said to Mu Xue, "Xue'er, were you playing Go just now? Let me play with you. Master Ziyuan is dealing with something, so I'll play with you for a while."

"Ah!" Mu Xue was stunned for a moment before she came to her senses.

She slowly put down her hand and looked at Yun Yuyao with a dull look. She felt a faint pain from the place where her hair had just been pulled, which made her a little dazed for a moment.

She never expected that in such a chaotic situation, Yun Yuyao could still so calmly offer to play chess with her.
