Starting with the Magic Absorption Technique: I swept through the fantasy world.

Wang Mu saw the final choice in her eyes. Although he was somewhat disappointed, he couldn't blame the princess. Anyone would choose the stronger side, since the prince and princess came from one of the most powerful empires on the continent.

"Princess Li Yili, you should go back now." He smiled faintly. Things had come to this point, and there was no need to add to the troubles. Besides, the current matter had nothing to do with the princess.

Li Yili breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, but also felt a pang of pain, her face showing great distress. Soon after, the carriage departed.

After everyone left, Wang Mu sneered, "Alright, those who were supposed to leave have all left."

After he finished speaking, he drew his longsword, which gleamed brightly and was quite dazzling in the gloomy sky.

"Hmph, Your Majesty, you're courting death!" The Second Prince's eyes were bloodshot with rage.

Looking at the long sword in the other's hand, Li Xue's heart bled, as if pierced by a thousand swords. A tear rolled down her cheek. She didn't know why things had come to this point between them, and she might die at the hands of the emperor.

She recalled their first meeting, when she was on the verge of death and he saved her. She thought about how he saved her several times afterward, and how she deeply loved him. Perhaps dying at the hands of her beloved was the best ending. At this moment, she felt completely at ease.

Wang Mu felt a pang of pity seeing Li Xue's face streaked with tears, but it was clear that the two princes wanted him dead.

Having faced death several times, and especially with the presence of the emperor's soul memories, he carried a heavy responsibility. At this moment, thinking that his life and death could not be arbitrarily controlled by others, he swiftly threw his flying knife.

In just a second or two, before the two princes could react, several guards around them fell to the ground, killed by flying knives.

At this moment, Wang Mu sneered, "We don't know who will live or die today. The status of princes and princesses is worthless in my eyes. Killing you is no different from killing pigs and dogs."

When the two princes saw that all the guards around them were dead, and then remembered the strength of their opponent, who was no match even for a level nine expert, they suddenly felt embarrassed.

Killing others requires skill, but not only do they lack the skill, they themselves are often killed. Everyone is afraid of death, and even princes and nobles, when insulted as pigs and dogs, not a single person dares to utter a word in response.

Several members of the Divine Phoenix Camp, seeing the Emperor angrily berate the princess and princes, stepped forward in fury.

Wang Mu threw his flying dagger again, and the longswords of several members of the Divine Phoenix Camp fell to the ground.

"Your Majesty, stop! Please let my two imperial brothers leave!" Li Xue shouted as she came to her senses.

Wang Mu simply gave a cold "humph".

"Brother, you must leave quickly!" Princess Lixue stepped forward to stop Wang Mu, who was hesitating and not making a move, and called out to the princes.

“Royal sister, I won’t leave. How can I abandon you?”

"Royal sister, come back."

"Hurry up and take the prince away!" Li Xue shouted angrily at the Shenfeng Camp members.

Knowing the consequences of the princes' deaths, the Shenfeng Camp, seeing the princess risk her life to save them, surrounded the two princes, and several men grabbed each prince and fled.

"Royal sister, come back."

"Your Majesty, if you dare to lay a hand on my sister, I will surely exterminate your entire family."

Wang Mu waved his hand, and a throwing knife shot out. A scream was heard as a member of the Divine Phoenix Camp came to help defend against it.

"Alright, everyone's gone. Give me a reason not to kill you." After a while, Wang Mu hardened his heart and said, though the murderous intent had dissipated.

At this moment, two female servants from the Divine Phoenix Camp who remained walked up behind the princess, drew their swords, and faced her. They knew they were no match for her, but they had no choice but to fight to the death.

Li Xue stepped forward and asked, "Did you injure General Wu Lande earlier?"

"What kind of bullshit general? I don't know him."

Upon hearing this, Lixue thought to herself that the emperor didn't recognize her uncle, and then asked, "Then did you rob a merchant caravan?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Mu recalled what happened outside Duna City and guessed that the princess was referring to that place. "So what if I robbed one? I still want to kill all those people."

"You, you really did commit robbery and murder."

The last glimmer of hope vanished, and one can only imagine the pain in Li Xue's heart at this moment. She had previously seen the emperor as someone who valued money above all else, and thought that he had only harmed her uncle for money and wealth.

"Do you know that this merchant guild belongs to the royal family of our Holy Empire?"

"So what? Can't we rob or kill?" Wang Mu sneered, then said, "Does that mean the royal family, emperors, princes, and princesses can be high and mighty while everyone else can be slaughtered at will?"

With tears streaming down her face, Lixue cried out, "That's my own uncle."

"So what? This kind of beast did something so outrageous that it's against both gods and men. I'll kill him if I ever see him again," Wang Mu said with a disdainful look.

Upon hearing the boy curse his own uncle, Lixue was immediately enraged and said, "What about my uncle? He doesn't need you to curse him. Besides, what did he do that you want to take his life?"

"What goes around comes around. What's wrong with killing him?" Wang Mu laughed loudly, then said angrily.

Lixue was unaware that her uncle had committed such an outrageous act, and besides, it was Wu Lande who was the one who wanted to kill Wang Mu first.

"He is a high-ranking official of the empire, the emperor himself. Don't you know that this is making an enemy of our Holy Empire?"

"Haha, so what if we're enemies? Doesn't your Holy Empire have any adversaries in this world?" Wang Mu laughed angrily, not bothering to explain what happened that day. He continued, "Then I'll kill a princess of the Holy Empire and see what happens."

Li Xue watched the long sword swaying in the other person's hand, but she couldn't find any killing intent in his eyes, so she knew that the emperor still cared about her.

But now that things have come to this, knowing it's beyond repair, and remembering her own identity, she said, "It's alright if you kill me, because you saved my life. But you killed a high-ranking official of my empire and robbed my empire's goods, so you need to consider the consequences..."

"It's just death, who knows who will kill whom?" Wang Mu interrupted the princess. "Alright, since that's the case, there's no point in saying more. I'm a bit tired today and don't want to kill you. Let's leave before I change my mind."

"Your Majesty, you..." Lixue was heartbroken.

Seeing that she refused to leave, Wang Mu flew into a rage and shouted, "Get out of here now!"

"Your Highness, let's go quickly."

Upon seeing this, the two female attendants from the Divine Phoenix Camp dragged the princess away, fearing that the emperor would kill her, at which point there would be no way to salvage the situation.

"Your Majesty..." Li Xue called out, but in the end, she left.

She knew the emperor wouldn't kill her, but she didn't know how to resolve the conflict between them, and she was in great pain.

Right now, she actually wants the emperor to kill her, because once she returns, even more suffering awaits her, and the empire will certainly not let the emperor off the hook.

"Your Highness, let's go quickly and find a solution when we get back. The Emperor and his son do not want to be enemies of the Empire. If they really wanted to, why did they let the two princes leave just now? Think about it, if he really wanted to kill people, none of us would be able to leave this place."

Another maid said, "Yes, Your Highness, perhaps there is some hidden reason. Even if there isn't, we will think of other ways."
