The host ruthlessly crushes scum in the small world

Sure enough, bloodstains were found in the study. After opening the secret passage, it was discovered that the passage led to the most bustling street!

Lin Chuyun stood on the street watching the people come and go; this would probably make it even harder to find Shi Yixi's whereabouts.

"Go check where the bloodstains ended up."

Lin Chuyun walked towards the spot where the person had last disappeared and immediately sent people to search for them. Soon, someone spotted a strangely dressed person walking towards the outskirts of the city.

"stop!"

Shi Yixi paused for a moment, but continued walking forward. A guard shot an arrow to block his path, but Shi Yixi simply quickened his pace and kept going.

Seeing the guards hesitate to act, Lin Chuyun guessed that it was probably because the emperor had said he wanted to capture Shi Yixi alive.

"Shoot him in the leg, so he can't walk!"

With a whoosh, the guard shot an arrow into Shi Yixi's leg, causing him to instantly kneel on the ground. Lin Chuyun and the guards went over to him; Shi Yixi was convulsing in pain but was still crawling forward.

"Why...why aren't they coming out yet!"

The instant Lin Chuyun heard those words, a whooshing sound filled the air! In the blink of an eye, the guard beside Lin Chuyun was struck by an arrow and fell to the ground.

"Protect the princess!"

Lin Chuyun looked at the people who had jumped out from all around, dressed in barbarian attire, and suddenly her gaze turned cold as she looked at Shi Yixi lying on the ground, who wore a triumphant smile.

"Hahaha! I knew I would succeed! Quick, grab that woman! She's the emperor's most beloved princess!"

Shi Yixi pointed directly at Lin Chuyun. The guards surrounded Lin Chuyun, but Lin Chuyun knew that if they continued to surround her like this, there would be even more casualties. So, Lin Chuyun directly grabbed the knife from the guard who had just fallen to the ground.

"Go directly there, you don't need to protect me, and it would be best to capture me alive!"

"Princess……"

"How dare you disobey my orders?!"

"Yes, Your Highness!"

The guards swiftly attacked the surrounding barbarians, while Lin Chuyun took advantage of the barbarian attacks to walk towards Shi Yixi.

"You... what are you doing... you wouldn't dare! You're just a delicate princess, what could you possibly do!"

Shi Yixi was still stubborn, but his trembling body betrayed him; after all, he was now the one who was powerless, while Lin Chuyun was still holding a knife.

"You...you're not going to save me! I'm the one who helped you!"

Upon hearing Shi Yixi's words, the barbarian chieftain immediately wounded several guards surrounding him and charged towards Lin Chuyun with his long sword.

"You're dead! Hahaha!"

Shi Yixi looked at Lin Chuyun smugly. Lin Chuyun smiled. Since arriving in this small world, Lin Chuyun had secretly begun practicing spiritual energy.

Every small world possesses spiritual energy, but humans cannot perceive it. The reason why people in the cultivation world can sense it is because their spiritual roots grant them an exceptionally keen sensitivity to the spiritual energy of their own element.

Lin Chuyun was able to sense it because of the spirit-gathering array she had drawn. The array slowly gathered the surrounding spiritual energy, which was why Lin Chuyun could feel it.

Having gained spiritual energy, Lin Chuyun naturally underwent a thorough internal cleansing, making her much more alert and even faster than the average person.

So, the instant the barbarian chieftain approached Lin Chuyun, she turned and blocked his long sword. The barbarian chieftain looked at this seemingly delicate princess with surprise.

"You...how could you?"

Lin Chuyun frowned at her broken Chinese, then immediately launched her attack.

While cultivating spiritual energy, Lin Chuyun did not forget to improve her martial arts skills. After all, having only agility without martial prowess would be too passive.

After several rounds, Lin Chuyun, holding her knife, looked at the panting barbarian chieftain and simply smiled.

The barbarian leader fought back fiercely, but unexpectedly, his long sword broke in two!

"Kacha——"

In the blink of an eye, Lin Chuyun stood behind the barbarian chieftain, her knife dripping blood. The chieftain, his hand clutching his neck, blood seeping from between his fingers, slowly knelt on the ground, lifeless.

When the other barbarians saw their leader killed, chaos broke out. The other guards arrived, and the remaining barbarians were captured alive!

"Do you still think of me as a delicate princess?"

Lin Chuyun placed the knife against Shi Yixi's neck, tilted her head and looked at him. Shi Yixi was completely terrified by what he had just witnessed!

"No...no...don't kill me, don't kill me!"

"Someone, arrest him!"

Lin Chuyun waved her hand, signaling the guards to arrest Shi Yixi. What happened afterward was a matter for the emperor.

"Chu Yun, are you alright?"

When Lin Chuyun returned to the Shi residence, Jiang Yuepan rushed to her side. Lin Chuyun followed her around, turning left and right. Only after seeing that Lin Chuyun was unharmed did Jiang Yuepan feel relieved.

"How is Ming Xiaxia?"

Lin Chuyun took a sip of water and looked at Jiang Yuepan, who shook her head.

"Ming Xiaxia lost too much blood and can't be saved, but Shi Yixi is too ruthless!"

It turns out that Ming Xiaxia's premature birth wasn't due to poor health at all; after all, the doctor had just checked her pulse a few days ago and said everything was normal.

It turned out that Shi Yixi returned to the study, discovered something was wrong, and summoned Ming Xiaxia. He then hit Ming Xiaxia, causing her to have a premature birth.

Shi Yixi wanted to use this incident to escape and buy time!

"What about Ming Xiaxia's child?"

"They are two fully formed fetuses, one male and one female."

Lin Chuyun suddenly remembered that the original owner's children were also a boy and a girl. Could it be that those two children were not the original owner's?

This explains why the two children treated the original owner that way; because the original owner was not their biological mother.

But I'm afraid the original owner's real children died long ago. Those two children were far too cold-blooded; the original owner treated them so well, yet they were so heartless.

Unfortunately, they can't live anymore either; they have to go with Ming Xiaxia.

"You have worked hard!"

Lin Chuyun looked at Ji Yisi, who had rushed back covered in dust. Ji Yisi had just gone to report to the emperor about the battle at the border.

Ji Yisi was the emperor's secret agent. After all, Ji Yisi wasn't from this small world, so Lin Chuyun naturally trusted him. Moreover, Ji Yisi had his own methods.

Finally, the emperor agreed to let Ji Yisi go. Because Ji Yisi brought fewer people, he could travel much faster. He would set off later than the main army, but arrive in about a few days.

But Ji Yisi's men, hidden in the shadows, indeed discovered that the same group of people would appear every time there was a meeting.

This group of people happened to be the survivors from when Shi Yixi was still alive, so Ji Yisi focused his investigation on them and indeed found some clues.

Those people would secretly pass messages to the barbarians after each meeting, which must have been because Shi Yixi passed messages that they were defeated before!
