The Mystic Princess is Too Invincible! The Abstinent and Cruel King Breaks His Rules and Pampers Her

Wang Jing'an shouted urgently, "Ling'er, be careful!"

"Third brother, you take the rabbit and go to the side, I'll go help Ling'er!" Wang Jingkang had just drawn his sword and rushed forward two steps when he heard the half-demon Xiao Zilin's shrill and painful scream. He looked up and was immediately stunned on the spot.

A wooden sword, sharp as a blade, pierced through Xiao Zilin's stomach.

The talismans on the wooden sword flashed, and arcs of electricity crackled, causing the half-demon to scream in agony.

Jiang Ling's eyes were cold and sharp, without a moment's hesitation. With a twist and turn of her hand on the sword hilt, she pulled a full and intact Snow Silkworm Demon Core from the belly of the half-demon Xiao Zilin.

Without his demon core, the half-demon Xiao Zilin instantly weakened.

He endured the pain, reaching out his hands to scratch: "Give it back! My demon core! Give it back to me, ahhh!"

"Oh!"

Jiang Ling drew her wooden sword and kicked the half-demon Xiao Zilin away.

The blood-stained demon core flew to Jiang Ling's front. She flipped her hand, took out a box, put the demon core in it, and put it back into the leather pouch at her waist.

"My demon core! My demon core! Give it back!" Xiao Zilin collapsed to the ground, unable to get up. Having lost his demon core, he was even weaker and more powerless than when he was human.

Jiang Ling walked up to him, carrying a wooden sword, and asked coldly, "When you were harming the little rabbit, did you ever think about retribution?"

"No! You can't kill me! I'm the young prince! Guards! Seize her!"

Xiao Zilin hated Jiang Ling intensely, and he didn't think he had done anything wrong. He was of noble status; what was wrong with killing a rabbit demon?

Now that his mother is dead, and he's become neither human nor demon, Xiao Zilin blames everything on Jiang Ling. He roared, "Guards! Kill this assassin! Kill her!!"

Jiang Ling didn't waste any words with him and raised her hand to swing her sword.

With a swift stroke, he severed Xiao Zilin's head. Xiao Zilin died with his eyes wide open, his head rolling several meters before blood spurted from his severed neck.

Jiang Ling cast a cleansing spell, and the wooden sword was cleaned and put back into her treasure bag.

Then, turning around, Jiang Ling saw her two older brothers, who were frozen in shock, now like stone statues. The rabbit demon, Zhuiyue, was also staring at her with wide eyes.

Jiang Ling blinked, her tone light and teasing: "What's wrong? I didn't kill some little prince, I killed a half-demon. A man-eating half-demon deserves to be killed! You don't need to worry about anyone coming to cause trouble."

The Wang Jingkang brothers were still too shocked to speak.

What's so scary about half-demons?

Even Ling'er couldn't withstand a single sword strike!

Ling'er is still the scariest... ugh! The most powerful!

Wang Jingkang and Wang Jingan swallowed hard, and could only give Jiang Ling a thumbs up to express their shock and speechlessness.

Jiang Ling was amused, her eyes crinkling into a smile. Both her older brothers are great!

suddenly!

Jiang Ling sensed something and turned to look at the rooftop diagonally opposite. The guard, Nan Zhu, was squatting there, dumbfounded, having stared for what seemed like an eternity. When their eyes met, Nan Zhu slipped and instinctively rolled away.

Jiang Ling: "..."

After a quick calculation, Jiang Ling pursed her red lips and said, "Second Brother, Third Brother, let's go."

Outside the Prince's mansion, every household in the surrounding area sent people to inquire about the situation. However, all the servants and maids in the Prince's mansion were driven out, each one more bewildered than the last, saying that they had received orders from their master not to stay.

"How about we go in and take a look?"

"The Regent has arrived! And so has the Night Steward of the Imperial Observatory!"

The crowd parted to make way.

Murong Yan waved his hand, and the Blood Eagle Guards immediately surrounded the Prince's Mansion, forbidding anyone from spying on it.

Ye Tianxing, dressed in the gray robes of the Imperial Observatory, embroidered with stars, stepped forward with his chest out and head held high. He explained and reassured the crowd, "There is a demon causing trouble in the Prince's residence! The Regent has ordered the Celestial Master to exorcise the demon! Please calm down and return!"

"May I ask, Steward Ye, who is this Celestial Master? In the capital, besides the Imperial Preceptor, you are the most powerful Celestial Master!"

"That's right! I don't know anything about this, how can I explain myself when I get back!"

The crowd dared not ask Murong Yan, so they clung to Ye Tianxing and refused to leave.

Ye Tianxing stammered, unsure whether to speak or not.

"Celestial Master Jiang Ling is deeply trusted by me. If you have any further questions, please have your masters ask me. I am ready to answer them at any time!" Murong Yan's deep voice, though not loud, instantly suppressed the clamor of the crowd.

His cold and imposing phoenix eyes swept over the crowd, and everyone shrank back and quietly left.

But deep down they were all wondering, "Celestial Master Jiang Ling?"

Who is it?

It seems that the real second young lady of the Marquis of Zhongyi's mansion is named Jiang Ling!

The crowd dispersed, and the servants and maids of the Prince's mansion were settled. The tightly closed gates of the Prince's mansion opened, and Jiang Ling and her two companions walked out.

Murong Yan's eyes welled up with tears, and he was about to speak...

"Second miss!"

Ye Tianxing rushed to call for help, running up to Jiang Ling with a grin: "My master divined that a half-demon will be born in the capital tonight, and it is extremely vicious! He told him to run away and hide, and that it will kill at least a hundred people in the future! Second Miss, you have done a great service by slaying the demon and eliminating the evil!"

Ye Tianxing immediately took out an item and carefully handed it over: "This is the waist token of an elder of the Imperial Observatory, with a rank equivalent to that of a manager! That is to say, the power is the same as mine! Second Miss, please accept it."

Wang Jingkang and Wang Jingan were deeply moved.

Ling'er has become an elder of the Imperial Observatory; how prestigious that is!

But Jiang Ling remained unmoved.

Upon seeing Ye Tianxing, she recalled the words of the old Imperial Advisor. Jiang Ling directly bypassed Ye Tianxing, declaring, "I refuse!"

"Second Miss, sob sob?"

Jiang Ling used a silencing talisman to shut him up.

Jiang Ling walked up to Murong Yan, glanced at his leg, and said, "Your leg isn't healed yet, why are you out here?"

"I'll handle the aftermath. His Majesty needs an explanation for the deaths of the young prince and the princess." Murong Yan's deep gaze swept over Jiang Ling, and he asked in a gentle and caring tone, "The half-demon is fierce, are you injured?"

Jiang Ling waved her hand.

She glanced at the people around her, her lips barely moving as she telepathically transmitted her thoughts to Murong Yan: "Regent, I would like to ask you to investigate someone."

Murong Yan didn't speak either, his phoenix eyes gentle and amiable, gesturing for her to speak.

【Master Xuanfeng. I need to know who he has contacted in the capital and what he has done.】

"Okay." Murong Yan nodded.

His gaze was deep and dark, filled with restrained tenderness. He knew perfectly well what was going on, yet he didn't expose her. What was he holding back? Jiang Ling felt a surge of heat under his gaze, a guilty conscience rising within her. Uncomfortably, she turned away and stretched.

Jiang Ling said, "It's almost dawn, I'm so tired, I'm going back to rest. Regent, there's no need to see me off!"

Murong Yan listened to her and did not send it.

But his eyes remained fixed on Jiang Ling's retreating figure. Even the Wang Jingkang brothers, who left with Jiang Ling, couldn't help but feel a chill run down their spines and uneasy.

Wang Jingkang asked hesitantly, puzzled, "Ling'er, when did you become acquainted with the Regent?"

Jiang Ling made up a reason on the spot, "I cured my grandfather's leg, and the Regent came here after hearing about me, asking me to cure his leg as well."

"Oh, oh!" Wang Jingkang breathed a sigh of relief.

Wang Jing'an patted his chest and laughed, "You scared me to death! I thought the Regent was after you, Ling'er. Turns out it's just for treating your leg! Then it's alright."

Wang Jingkang glared at him speechlessly, "Third brother, don't talk nonsense. Everyone in the capital knows that the Regent has a white moonlight in his heart! He's incredibly devoted! How could he possibly fall for someone else?"

Jiang Ling paused in her steps.

She tilted her head and stared at Wang Jingkang, "White Moonlight?"
