The prince is very cruel

The biting water flow and the hollow bottom of the water made Yuan Xiang panic instantly. He subconsciously opened his mouth and choked on the water.

"Cough...cough cough!"

"Help, uh..."

Guan Ning sensed something was wrong and immediately lifted the person out of the water.

Wow...

"Cough, cough, cough!" Yuan Xiang was soaked all over and coughed madly. He felt like he was choking to death. His lips were frighteningly pale and he kept shaking.

"How is it?" Guan Ning frowned.

"It's so cold..." Yuan Xiang was shivering, her hair sticking to her face.

Guan Ning felt distressed and was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

"There's nothing I can do. I can only let you suffer with me."

"No, no, it's okay. As long as I follow you, I'm not afraid of any crime." Yuan Xiang bit her lip and held on.

Guan Ning didn’t know what to say. This woman was for him for life!

Soon after, after Yuan Xiang adjusted herself under his guidance, Guan Ning tied them up with a rope and then officially dived.

This time, Yuan Xiang did not make any mistakes and dived while holding his breath.

At first she was very scared and at a loss under the water. After a while, she pulled the rope to indicate that she was out of breath. Guan Ning then turned back and kissed her to breathe.

Deep in the dark blue river, the two of them were like a pair of fishmen.

Every time they drove a distance, Guan Ning would surface to breathe, and then continue to move towards the depths of the dark river.

Gradually, Yuan Xiang got into the groove, was no longer so scared, and her breathing frequency also decreased. After all, she had some skills, and her lung capacity was much higher than that of an ordinary woman.

Otherwise, Guan Ning really didn’t know what to do.

Time passed by minute by minute, and the dark river was filled with eternal silence and coldness. On the other hand, in the capital city on the ground, tens of thousands of imperial guards were attacking, with war horses, iron armor, and loud gongs and drums!

Countless torches lit up the sky, the four city gates were heavily guarded, and a large number of imperial guards broke directly into people's homes, searching house to house, not even leaving out the rice jars.

As a result, the situation became even more serious and affected the entire city.

Even a figure like the Grand General of the Imperial Guards was dispatched, which was unprecedented. People who didn't know might have thought that the rebels were attacking.

While they were searching frantically, they had no idea that Guan Ning had already left through another route.

About an hour later.

Guan Ning endured the freezing river water, dragged his exhausted body, and finally grabbed Yuan Xiang and crossed the confined underground river, swimming through a pipe to an open area.

The firelight reflected on the water surface allowed him to quickly determine that he had reached the moat outside the city.

At this moment, Yuan Xiang could no longer hold on. Her consciousness was becoming increasingly blurred. She was completely frozen. It was the coldest time of the year in the north. It was already incredible that she could hold on in the dark river for so long.

There was no other way, Guan Ning gritted his teeth and could only swim slowly upstream along the wall. His black hair fluttered in the water, bubbles kept coming out of his lips, and his eyes were bloodshot.

He was almost reaching his limit, both in terms of energy and strength.

Wow...

A slight sound of flowing water emerged, and the two men, with pale faces, finally emerged from the water, as if they had gone through 81 difficulties before coming out. If they had known that the underground river was so long, no one would have dared to cross it like this.

Even a powerful soldier like Guan Ning almost died in there.

"Hoo, hoo!"

Yuan Xiang breathed deeply, her whole body was wet, her hair was draped over her shoulders, and she didn't care to cover up the faint whiteness of her chest. At this moment, she was like a drowning person grabbing the last straw, breathing frantically.

Guan Ning was about to ask when his ears moved and he suddenly noticed some movement, and quickly covered Yuan Xiang's mouth.

"Hmm..." Yuan Xiang was weak and at a loss.

The two hid in the darkness of the moat. The next second, several shadows fell from the sky on the shore with amazing lightness skills.

On the other side, the imperial guards arrived.

The two sides met at the shore, only a dozen meters away from Guan Ning, very close.

"How about it?"

A pair of sharp eyes looked into the moat, and after a long silence, he shook his head: "No one."

"We haven't found anyone inside yet, not even a shadow. The four city gates were blocked immediately. Where did this guy run to? Could he have wings?" An important figure shouted angrily, his voice echoing in the snowy night.
