At this moment, inside the Shadow Hall.

Qin Yu has been in the checkpoint for a day.

Mo Yun was worried that Qin Yu might be...

Mo Yun was about to rush in, but unexpectedly, the leader of the Shadow Hall stopped him.

"Do you know that doing this will only backfire?"

The Shadow Hall Master's tone was extremely cold.

In fact, the Shadow Hall Master was somewhat disappointed in Mo Yun.

After all, why would this top-tier bodyguard of the Shadow Hall be so swayed by a woman...?

Mo Yun turned his head and saw the expression on the Shadow Hall Master's face.

I never expected that the Shadow Hall Master would be disappointed in him.

"I have treated you like my own son. You have been by my side since you were five years old. Have you forgotten all the training I have given you and the things I have taught you to do all these years?"

Mo Yun understood what the Shadow Hall Master meant.

"But have you forgotten? A bodyguard serves only one master in his lifetime. When the master dies, the bodyguard dies."

"Who told you that if your master dies, your bodyguards must be buried with him?"

"But in the hearts of my subordinates, Her Highness the Princess is their heaven. If there were no Princess in this world, what would be the meaning of my existence?"

...The leader of the Shadow Hall truly believed that Mo Yun was bewitched.

The leader of the Shadow Hall was exasperated and turned to Mo Yun, telling him to go back to his room and reflect on his mistakes.

"You are not allowed to come out today or tomorrow. Afterwards, go and copy all the rules of the Shadow Hall. Not a single word can be wrong."

Mo Yun could sense that the Shadow Hall Master was somewhat disappointed in him.

However, there are some things that Mo Yun cannot control.

Although Qin Yu is indeed cold, she is also gentle.

Recalling the scene of Qin Yu applying the medicine to him...

Mo Yun hopes that Qin Yu will be alright.

If anything were to happen to Qin Yu, Mo Yun would regret it for the rest of his life.

If Mo Yun had been able to intercept Qin Yu, things wouldn't have turned out this way.

Mo Yun was filled with mixed emotions.

He copied the rules of the Shadow Hall but kept making mistakes in writing them.

On the other side, the leader of the Shadow Hall stood outside.

Another bodyguard stood next to him.

The guard's eyes held a hint of coldness, devoid of any other emotion.

Even when looking at the Shadow Hall Master's bodyguard, there was no thought in his eyes.

The leader of the Shadow Hall looked up at the guard.

"Why can't Mo Yun be as indifferent as you?"

Why can't Mo Yun be heartless?

If I had known this would happen, I should have been even harsher on Mo Yun in the past.

Perhaps this will cause Mo Yun some panic.

However, it will be of some help to them.

At this moment, Qin Yu was tackling the third level.

Qin Yu felt that this third level was like a puzzle.

No matter which way I go, I feel like I'm going around in circles.

However, there were occasional traps and mechanisms that were extremely draining of Qin Yu's energy.

Qin Yu didn't know how much time had passed outside, she only felt a wave of fatigue.

Qin Yu decided to rest here for a while.

Qin Yu then sat there and closed her eyes to rest.

Qin Yu was unaware of what was happening to the people inside the princess's residence, just as Mo Yun and the others were unaware of their situation.

I don't know how much time had passed, but suddenly I heard a rustling sound.

Unexpectedly, a snake appeared in front of Qin Yu, and this snake was extremely long.

Its bright colors indicated that the snake was venomous.

Qin Yu never expected things to turn out this way.

Qin Yu raised his sword and began to slay the snakes.

Unexpectedly, Qin Yu was suddenly given a dragon tail swing.

Qin Yu took a step back, keeping a certain distance from the snake.

According to Qin Yu's understanding, the dangerous objects placed here each time are different kinds of creatures.

I wonder what kind of creature Mo Yun encountered at that time?

It must be said that the Shadow Hall staff are quite skilled at creating mechanisms.

It's unclear how much time passed, but Qin Yu was covered in wounds. Fortunately, he managed to deal with the snake.

Qin Yu looked down at the snake and struck at its vital spot, successfully extracting the snake's gall bladder.

This snake gall was a valuable item for Qin Yu.

Because Qin Yu needed to replenish her physical strength.

In this situation, if you don't eat something, you definitely won't make it through this final hurdle.

Qin Yu suppressed her nausea and swallowed the snake gall.

I closed my eyes and took a deep breath.

Qin Yu, having lived in the princess's residence since childhood and never having experienced hardship, was now facing such a difficult environment. How could Qin Yu not be deeply troubled...

When the third flag fell, the Shadow Hall Master realized that Qin Yu had passed the three tests.

The fact that a woman could pass three trials in a single day truly surprised the leader of the Shadow Hall.

However, the leader of the Shadow Hall was very curious to know whether Qin Yu could get through the fourth level.

If the Shadow Hall Master cannot be appointed, the matter will naturally be terminated.

After all, this level can be stopped.

Qin Yu's influence is too great; how could the leader of the Shadow Hall possibly risk the fate of the nation to challenge him?

If anything happens to Qin Yu, this country and its people will surely fall into the hands of others...

Therefore, nothing can happen to Qin Yu.

Suddenly the sky turned gray, and it looked like it was going to rain.

The leader of the Shadow Hall had his eyes closed.

Raindrops fell on the face of the Shadow Hall Master.

Although the Shadow Hall Master was wearing a mask, he could still feel the coldness of the rain.

At this moment, someone next to him couldn't help but ask a question.

"Sir, shall we go inside to take shelter from the rain?"

"You may go inside. I would like to take a walk in the rain."

It seems I've been busy with other things all this time and haven't had a proper chance to relax.

But now, walking in the rain, the Shadow Hall Master felt an unprecedented sense of ease.

In a few more years, he should be able to retire.

In truth, he had no desire to be the leader of his own Shadow Hall.

After all, the Shadow Hall Masters of this place have all made one rule.

To be unable to find a good companion throughout one's life means that one can only be alone.

However, once the Shadow Hall Master is no longer the Shadow Hall Master, he can return to a normal life.

Everyone in this world thinks that the leader of the Shadow Hall is very powerful and awe-inspiring.

But only the leader of the Shadow Hall can truly understand how lonely he is.

Then he thought again, who among the strong is not lonely?

Even the emperor, who is high above all others, is lonely.

After all, among those around the emperor, who are truly sincere and who are merely pretending?

It's not visible to the naked eye.

In such cases, one can only rely on one's heart, but emperors are all very suspicious.

As long as someone stirs up trouble here, that person will...

"Ah……"

Rumor has it that the princess and the emperor had a very good relationship.

But being in the royal family, can things really be as the outside world says?
