The Crown Princess calculated with her fingers and the prince was terrified.

"elder brother!"

Shen Qingge's voice made Jiang Xianyue lower her guard. She didn't expect Shen Shijing to come over.

“Your Highness, if you don’t go outside with Liang Feng to provide backup, do you realize that every extra person increases the danger?”

Jiang Xianyue naturally found dealing with that important figure extremely troublesome.

"Oh?"

Shen Shijing walked in.

"Even Miss Jiang gets nervous sometimes."

"I have met the person behind this before in Tsz Wan Shan. He is the one who lied about knowing my mother and then tried to harm me."

However, despite his serious injuries that day, he seems even stronger now than before.

Shen Shijing frowned, also feeling nervous. There were too many things Jiang Xianyue couldn't say here, so she grabbed Shen Qingge's wrist and held Shen Shijing with her other hand.

"Let's hurry and go!"

As Jiang Xianyue was speaking, she prepared to go out, but unexpectedly a gust of evil wind blew by and the door was slammed shut instantly. The powerful force, accompanied by bursts of black energy, made it impossible for the three of them to open their eyes.

Then, a deep and powerful voice rang out.

"Who dares to trespass on my property?!"

Jiang Xianyue calculated the probability of them escaping unscathed. In desperation, she bit her finger and drew talismans on the doors and windows.

"Miss Jiang."

"I was afraid I couldn't beat him. I originally wanted to save people and leave, but now it seems that there is no other way but to fight to the death. The Crown Prince and the Princess should not go out."

Jiang Xianyue gritted her teeth, broke down the door, and used her magic to seal it shut.

"Sister Xian Yue!"

Shen Qingge chased after him, but was bounced back.

"Brother, did I hurt Sister Xian Yue?"

Shen Shijing did not expect that Jiang Xianyue would go out and fight the other party without saying a word, and even knowing that she would lose, she would still be loyal to the death.

He didn't know anything about Jiang Xianyue's spiritual power in his previous life, but he was certain that she was not lacking in spiritual power in her previous life, unlike in this life, where she seemed to be avoiding something terrible whenever she saw him.

Shen Shijing frowned deeply, feeling once again that he had misunderstood Jiang Xianyue, and was annoyed by it.

Outside the door, Jiang Xianyue was facing the person dressed in black robes.

"It was you again at Tsz Wan Shan last time. Who exactly are you?"

Jiang Xianyue's tone was questioning, and she tried her best to release her spiritual power to show her strength.

"It's you?"

The man sneered: "It was my mistake to spare your life last time at Tsz Wan Shan."

I never expected that, despite the vast distance, you would still show up and ruin my plans.

“You know my mother and my family, yet you still commit evil deeds here. Could it be that what you are doing is related to people in the capital? Who is the power behind you?”

"It seems you are really smart, even smarter than your mother."

If your mother had been so cautious, she probably wouldn't have died.

Jiang Xianyue frowned deeply and took a step forward.

"You do know."

"I know that, but it depends on whether you can get me to talk."

He continued to taunt Jiang Xianyue, unleashing a burst of black energy that was far more ferocious than before. Jiang Xianyue dodged it, her movements swift and graceful, and she landed at his feet with a quick hand seal.

Jiang Xian Yue felt uncomfortable with such a mild and ineffective attack.

However, she is unable to summon greater power in the short term.

The man in black robes took two steps back, immediately chanted a series of incantations, raised his arms and shouted, and then a dark mass of women covered in blood struggled towards him like walking corpses.

This is more than I saw in Liuzhou in my previous life.

Jiang Xianyue froze instantly, fear flashing in her eyes.

Dealing with these walking corpses will probably require going through the process again, but Jiang Xianyue knows very well that this is very close to what happened in Liuzhou. It seems that a group of people were causing trouble. She wonders what will happen after they break through the city.

In her past life, she sided with Shen Qinglan and became his princess consort. Despite the similar circumstances, she never encountered this man in black robes or experienced these events. Although it was risky, she only touched upon a tiny fraction of what was happening. Could this be interpreted as a connection between this matter and Shen Qinglan?

As she was thinking this, the horde of zombies was already heading towards Jiang Xianyue.

"I want to see if these guys will devour you. If they consume your cultivation, they will definitely turn into an even more terrifying monster."

Perhaps it was the fear he felt from his previous battle with Jiang Xianyue that made him hesitant to charge forward now.

Therefore, the only way to kill himself was through these monsters.

There were too many of them, so Jiang Xianyue was forced to retreat and used her magic to reinforce the seals on the doors and windows in front of her.

"Sister, what are these? They're so scary! They're like puppets."

"It's a kind of evil magic. The incident in Liuzhou was probably caused by these things. It's not a good thing."

Shen Shijing was surprised that Jiang Xianyue already knew that those frightening things had rushed to attack the window, leaving bloodstains on the window paper.

"They are all controlled by curses, their life force has been drained, and they look like puppets, but they are also conscious, so most of this group are women."

Women who become these monsters have a powerful ability to summon and lead men; the girls lost in the city are all used here.

The reason for taking three days to absorb essence is that it takes time and cannot be done overnight.

The leader's magical power is probably insufficient, which is why he moves so slowly.

"Aren't all those missing girls dead?"

Shen Qingge suddenly began to feel sympathy for the women she didn't know.

"It's all because of me. If I hadn't been so unfortunate, they wouldn't have died!"

"What do you have to do with harmful curses?"

Jiang Xianyue tried her best to resist, while also comforting Shen Qingge.

"Your Highness is quite skilled in martial arts. Take the princess and escape. Although they are under the control of the curse, they are slow and cannot harm those who know martial arts."

They are afraid of fire; only explosives or torches can quickly repel them!

"But you're the only one left here, and I can't let you be alone."

"Your Highness, I have a Fire and Thunder Spell. Even if there aren't many, this talisman can still last for a while. As long as Your Highness brings Liang Feng to rescue me in time, I will be unharmed."

"I'm not stupid. I'm here to help, not to die. Why would I stay here if I wasn't confident?"

Shen Shijing's expression was solemn.

"How is your spiritual power recovering today?"

Shen Shijing seemed to have a vivid memory of Jiang Xianyue's words.

While it was good, she was about to face a fierce battle, and naturally, the more spiritual energy the better. However, the situation was urgent, and she didn't have the chance to slowly gain luck from Shen Shijing.

Shen Shijing seemed to sense the concern.

"excuse me."

Shen Shijing suddenly reached out and hugged Jiang Xianyue tightly, pressing himself against her with lightning speed.

Jiang Xianyue got nervous and accidentally kissed his lips.

A large amount of purple energy flowed into Jiang Xianyue's body through the kiss, warm and comforting, and she didn't want to let go.
