The Princess Agents Want a Divorce
Chapter 1 Running Away with Death
The vast expanse of blue water stretches to the horizon!
On the beautiful and tranquil sea where the sky and sea meet, a luxury cruise ship is slowly sailing.
Outside a room on the fifth floor of the cruise ship, five or six security guards in navy blue suits were patrolling back and forth.
At the corner of the fourth-floor staircase, a tall, graceful figure was hidden in the darkness. A hint of arrogance shone in her exquisitely beautiful eyes. She was a legendary female assassin, a top-tier female agent, navigating both the legal and illegal worlds. Today's mission was just another ordinary one for her. She didn't seem to care at all, appearing completely nonchalant.
Gu Lingxi stood at the corner, raising an eyebrow in thought. This seemed to be the place. She had been cautious enough to leave her things here; the only way in was from the front, there was no other way. After a moment's thought, she made up her mind, took off her high heels, squinted, and swayed as she walked towards the group.
"Stop! You can't go in here! Leave now!"
A tall security guard leading the group stepped forward to stop her. Pretending to be drunk, Gu Lingxi looked bewildered and said, "Who are you? My room is here. Get out of my way, or I won't be polite!"
After saying that, he staggered and then took a big step forward!
No one was on guard and assumed it was just a drunk woman who had wandered into the wrong place. Just then, Ling Xi spun around and six golden needles flew out of her hand. The moment the golden needles left her hand, they were accompanied by a fierce gust of wind. The speed was so fast that no one had time to react. In the blink of an eye, the six golden lights had simultaneously pierced the foreheads of the six people. Before the six people could make any move, they fell to the ground!
"Ora!" Ling Xi flashed a victory sign, smoothed her stray hairs, and confidently walked into the room ahead.
Looking at the infrared beams covering the room, Ling Xi laughed. "These are child's play! They're too green to deal with me! These are my strengths!" Without hesitation, she leaped into the air, bent down, and arrived at the place where the box was placed.
Reaching out to take the box, Ling Xi was secretly delighted that the mission had been completed smoothly, and even an hour ahead of schedule. It seemed that first place would definitely be hers again!
Looking at the long box, Gu Lingxi was curious about what was inside. Could it be an ancient sword? Or something else? Opening it and taking a look shouldn't be a problem, right?
Without hesitation, he opened the box. Inside was a scroll made of some unknown material, seemingly unremarkable from the outside. However, anything included on their mission list by their leader must be something special; perhaps a masterpiece by a renowned artist?
Slowly unrolling the scroll, one sees a beautiful woman holding a flower. It is unknown what kind of paint was used, but after thousands of years, the colors are still so vibrant. The thin gauze wrapped in pink and blue feathers is dotted with starlight. The woman's fair skin and delicate bones are faintly visible on her shoulders. A seven-colored glass flower that Gu Lingxi has never seen before leaps from her fingertips in her slender hand.
A faint smile played on the woman's stunning face, and a crimson gem shone brightly between her brows. How beautiful!
Even though she herself was an undeniable beauty, she paled in comparison to the person in the painting. Looking at the figure in the painting, Gu Lingxi felt a strange sense of familiarity. She had never seen her before, so where did this feeling come from? As if bewitched, Gu Lingxi reached out and gently touched the beauty's eyebrows and eyes. Just as she touched the vermilion gemstone, a slight stinging sensation on her finger snapped Lingxi back to reality!
Damn it! This painting is strange; it actually confused her mind just now. The painting is clearly flat, so how could it have pricked her finger? Looking at the ruby in the painting, which looked even more eerie because of her own blood, Ling Xi felt a wave of doubt. Well, she should just hurry up and go out and talk about it.
But just as she put away the painting and lifted her foot, a sharp sound from beneath her feet made Gu Lingxi's heart tighten. Oh no, she had been careless! This mission was definitely ruined! Her reputation was in jeopardy!
These bastards had planted a time bomb on the floor tiles, the only path she could take. Her kick had triggered the switch. Five seconds left on the countdown. Even with her incredible speed, there was no way she could leave this infrared-filled room in a matter of seconds. Cold sweat beaded on her forehead, and she cursed inwardly!
Every mission she's ever undertaken has been a brush with death, yet she's always managed to escape unscathed. This time, however, she's a little nervous! This is practically a chase with death itself!
Damn it, she'd give it her all. Even though it was only five seconds, she refused to give up, her hand unconsciously tightening its grip on the painting. Her body surged forward like a cheetah at full speed.
5秒、4秒、3秒、2秒、1秒、
A deafening bang echoed through the vast night sky! At the epicenter of the explosion, a strange red light shot into the sky, flashed across the night, and then returned to calm.
In a distant, alternate dimension, the gears of fate have begun their predetermined course! Slowly, gradually, they are manipulated invisibly! Never ceasing!
Of course, Gu Lingxi couldn't possibly see that strange red light that shot into the sky.
At this moment, Gu Lingxi felt excruciating pain all over her body, unable to move at all. She felt as if all the bones in her body were about to shatter, especially her head. Although she couldn't move and was in so much pain that she wanted to curse, Gu Lingxi still felt very fortunate to have survived such a close-range explosion.
I'm so lucky! It seems like God is still looking out for me.
Ouch! Gu Lingxi gasped in pain as she shifted slightly. It hurt so much!
"Ouch, why does it hurt so much? Am I crippled by the explosion? No way! I'm so young and full of life, am I going to spend it all lying down?" Gu Lingxi cried out in her heart. How tragic!
Suppressing her discomfort, Gu Lingxi opened her tightly closed eyes. Before her lay a towering forest and a sheer cliff. Where was she? She remembered being on a cruise ship, surrounded by sea; she couldn't recall this dense forest. Had she been unconscious for too long, drifting at sea for a long time, ending up on some deserted island?
Just as she was pondering and puzzled, she vaguely heard a sound, seemingly the sound of horses' hooves. The sound was very noisy, and with her superb hearing and perception, she initially judged that there were no more than ten horses. But where was she? How could there be so many horses? Was it a horse farm? Or a herd of wild horses? However, the faint voices made Gu Lingxi frown slightly, and she decided to wait and see.
