The silver needle that Zhao Yang referred to was three inches long, and the tip of the silver needle was very sharp. If you looked closely, you could easily find that there were many small needles like burrs on the silver needle.

The needles, both at the tip and throughout the body, are coated with a potent poison, yet this poison does not kill immediately.

The poisoned person feels as if their internal organs are on fire, and every inch of their skin feels itchy and painful, as if it is being gnawed by thousands of insects.

This needle was one of Zhao Yang's usual punishments, simply because she enjoyed watching those being tortured suffer a fate worse than death, and enjoyed watching them tear their own flesh apart with their own hands.

For Zhao Yang, now, inflicting this punishment on Lian Rongrong in front of Li Yuanqi was the perfect opportunity.

Doesn't he love her? Then let him see this disgusting woman rolling on the ground, tearing her own flesh apart.

She wanted to see if Brother Qi would still stay by her side when Lian Rongrong became a blood-soaked gourd with a completely disfigured face.

Zhao Yang, holding a silver needle, walked towards Lian Rongrong, slowly approaching her step by step, as if waiting for something.

Just as Zhao Yang walked to Lian Rongrong's side, the door was kicked open from the outside.

"Zhaoyang, what are you doing?" Li Yuanqi's angry voice came from outside.

Zhao Yang's red lips curved into a charming smile. She looked at Li Yuanqi with deep affection, her smile seemingly normal.

"Brother Qi, you're here? I have something interesting to show you. Don't worry, it'll be ready soon."

As her smile vanished, Zhao Yang's silver needle pierced towards Lian Rongrong.

Li Yuanqi was shocked. He shot out a crossbow arrow, which pierced Zhaoyang's wrist, and the silver needle fell to the ground.

But the next second, Li Yuanqi discovered that Lian Rongrong was gone. Where Lian Rongrong had been kneeling, only an amber ring lay quietly on the ground.

All the servants and Zhaoyang inside the room screamed in alarm. Li Yuanqi couldn't tell whether their fear stemmed from the fact that he had shot through Zhaoyang's arm.

It was because Lian Rongrong had mysteriously disappeared into thin air. But Li Yuanqi didn't care at all what the reason was.

He stepped past the crowd, bent down to pick up the amber ring from the ground, and said softly:

"You're quite clever. It's alright now, come out."

No sooner had Li Yuanqi finished speaking than Lian Rongrong, who had just disappeared, reappeared.

This time, she actually appeared directly in Li Yuanqi's arms.

"Who am I? Do you think I'm stupid enough to let that madman stab me?" Lian Rongrong's face showed no fear, but rather a hint of pride at being praised.

Li Yuanqi hugged Lian Rongrong tightly, still shaken, and said with a hint of reproach in his voice, "Your strength was enough to avoid falling into the hands of this poisonous woman. What exactly happened?"

"I'm just worried about messing up your plans."

"Nothing is more important than your safety! Lian Rongrong, are you stupid?" Li Yuanqi flicked Lian Rongrong's forehead hard.

Lian Rongrong rubbed her head in pain and retorted, "You just praised me for being clever."

The two of them chatted back and forth without any restraint.

On the other hand, Zhaoyang was suffering from both physical and mental torment.

"It's true! It's actually true! Li Yuanqi, how could you do this to me?"

Zhao Yang shook off the maid's hand that was trying to bandage her wound and staggered toward the two of them.

"I love you so much! How could you betray me?"

"Betrayal? You are the princess of Shang Kingdom, and I am the prince of Dasheng Kingdom. How can there be betrayal?"

You keep saying you love me, but do you understand what true love really is?

You are ruthless, cruel, and bloodthirsty, treating human life as worthless. I cannot bear the love of such a woman.

"Zhaoyang, out of consideration for your past protection of me, I will spare your life today. You'd better watch yourself."

After saying this, Li Yuanqi picked up Lian Rongrong and turned to leave. But Zhaoyang had gone mad; how could she let them leave so easily?

Li Yuanqi had just stepped out the door when he heard Zhaoyang shout from behind, "Trying to leave? Dream on! Seize those two scoundrels for me. They can live or die!"

Zhao Yang shouted, and archers immediately appeared on the rooftops outside the door. Not only that, but dozens of experts also rushed towards them with sharp blades.

These ambushes were actually sensed by Li Yuanqi the moment he entered the princess's residence.

But compared to Lian Rongrong's life, he would brave even the most dangerous and dangerous places!

"Go hide in your ring for a while, I'll take care of things outside and then pick you up." Li Yuanqi lowered his eyes and smiled slightly at Lian Rongrong.

But Lian Rongrong stubbornly shook her head, "There are so many people, no matter how strong you are, you can't fight them all. I'll stay with you, even if it means death!"

Every time Lian Rongrong and Li Yuanqi exchanged a smile, it was a huge shock to Zhao Yang.

She screamed like a madwoman, "Kill them! Kill them!"

Just as everyone was about to make their move, the ground suddenly shook violently. Li Yuanqi lost his balance, but still instinctively held on tightly to Lian Rongrong.

"This is... an earthquake?" Lian Rongrong asked in a panic, and the next second, the surrounding houses collapsed with a loud rumble.

Seeing the danger approaching, Lian Rongrong instinctively activated her mind, and the two of them entered the space together in the next second.

Almost at the same moment Lian Rongrong and Li Yuanqi entered the space, the room they had just been in collapsed with a loud crash.

The space seemed to spin several times before finally quieting down. Even Rongrong, rubbing her dizzy head, peered out through the space ring.

As far as the eye could see, there was a scene of utter devastation; it seemed there really had been an earthquake.

"What kind of unlucky constitution do I have? I can't escape snow disasters, flash floods, earthquakes, I can't escape them all."

Li Yuanqi stayed by Lian Rongrong's side and found the girl pouting and babbling to herself rather cute.

"What are you laughing at?" Lian Rongrong turned her head and caught Li Yuanqi staring at her with a smile.

"What time is it? You're still in the mood to laugh?" Lian Rongrong looked at Li Yuanqi as if he were an idiot.

"Why can't I feel like laughing? As long as I can be with the Princess, I'm in a good mood every day."

"Are you out of your mind, Li Yuanqi? Look at us, we can't even get out now."

Lian Rongrong rolled her eyes and gestured for Li Yuanqi to look at the world outside the space.

Clearly, the ring had been buried under heavy objects, so they were safe hiding inside the space. However, getting out wouldn't be so easy.

"If we can't get out, we can't get out. As long as I'm with you, it doesn't matter where we are."

"Li Yuanqi, have you no shame? Have you forgotten you have a son?"

Upon hearing this, Li Yuanqi slapped his forehead, "Oh, you know what, I really forgot."

[Xiao Bai really couldn't stand it anymore.] Xiao Bai's voice suddenly came from the space.

【Master, even though you can't control the ring's position, you can still freely move the items inside to any open space outside.】

"Yeah, why didn't I think of that?"

Because you're stupid.

"Say that again?" Lian Rongrong glared at him, while Li Yuanqi leisurely watched the two arguing in the space.

But this leisurely state lasted less than two seconds before he felt his body lighten and he left the space.

So, Li Yuanqi is what people are talking about?
