Xing Zidie trembled as she looked at Liu Haibo, whose pupils were gradually dilating. Her eyes were filled with terror, and she was too terrified to speak.

terrible!

She didn't even see a shadow of him, only a flash of crimson light. Liu Haibo, who was also a martial arts master, died in the blink of an eye. The whole process took less than a blink of an eye!

However, before she could think too much, a rapidly gathering black gust of wind swept across, and the row of palace lanterns in the corridor suddenly went out with a 'poof'!

She was terrified and retreated in panic. A crimson streak flashed before her eyes, passing through the thin air like lightning. Fortunately, Zi Die trembled violently, dodged in panic, and subconsciously raised her head to try to intercept the piercing cold sword.

'what! '

The screams echoed across the sky.

The icy sword sliced ​​through her hands, and Xing Zidie's palm was actually split in two by the sword, extending all the way to her wrist. Her wrist was also cut in two, a cruel and bloody sight!

A flash of crimson light appeared as the sword was suddenly drawn, splattering warm blood all over Xing Zidie's face. The sharp edge of the sword grazed her face, and she felt a piercing pain on her right cheek. Before she could even cry for help, she fainted.

From beginning to end, she could only see that eerie, flickering black shadow; she didn't even see the real figure of the person who made the move!

Such a cold-blooded, ruthless, and vicious killer!

"who!"

Sikong Jin wanted to finish Xing Zidie off with another sword strike, but the patrolling guards arrived quickly enough. She gritted her teeth in resentment and, disregarding everything else, turned and slipped into the bushes outside the corridor.

"The assassin has been caught!"

"Help! Catch the assassin!"

In a short while, urgent cries of alarm rang out from the palace, and the once silent palace was suddenly engulfed in flames, with the footsteps of the guards hurried and chaotic.

Sikong Jin ran through the bushes toward the Cold Palace. The sounds of the guards searching behind her grew closer and closer, and she broke out in a cold sweat, barely daring to breathe the whole way.

"Hurry! There's a commotion here, towards the Cold Palace!"

"Everyone, hurry and chase after the direction of the Cold Palace!"

Even though Sikong Jin's movements were unpredictable and her speed was fast, she could not escape the scrutinizing eyes of thousands of people, as well as the hidden guards lurking in the shadows.

"Damn it, I forgot about those damned bodyguards!"

Sikong Jin raised her sleeve to wipe away her sweat, cursing herself inwardly for her carelessness.

She ran wildly, reaching almost the peak of her life, but the secret guards and bodyguards swarming out from all directions were getting closer and closer. They split into several groups to encircle her. Sikong Jin jumped down from the corridor and changed her escape direction several times, but she was blocked by the pursuers surging up from both sides.

"I should have slit that woman's throat first!"

Lady Sikong was furious. The pursuers swarmed in from all directions like a raging, turbulent wave. She sighed inwardly, intending to leap onto the roof to escape, but just then—

"He's here! Grab him! Quickly!"

"Oh shit!"

Sikong Jin cursed.

'Whoosh! '

"idiot!"

As an angry growl swept past, a delicate, cool fragrance wafted over. A dark figure swooped down from the sky like an eagle seizing a rabbit, grabbed Sikong Jin by the collar, and lifted her up with lightning speed. A torrent of true energy, like a raging beast, suddenly blasted towards the pursuing guards!

'Snapped! '

'Bah! '

'what! '

Half of the corridor collapsed in an instant, as if swallowed up by a terrible torrent. All the guards were buried under the ruins. Screams rang out, and the flying dust covered the entire sky and earth. The moonlight, as clear as water, was instantly filled with gloom.

"Little Mink, run!"

With Sikong Jin in one hand, Di Beizun flew over several palaces in a row and passed through the Cold Palace in the blink of an eye. In front of them was the high palace wall, where Diao Ye was already squatting and waiting for the two of them, with a black jade pendant in his mouth.

Upon seeing Di Beizun's figure, a glint flashed in Diaoye's purple eyes. She twisted her body as if presenting a treasure, raised her mouth, and gestured to the jade pendant he was holding in his mouth.

Di Beizun flew over, took the jade pendant from Diaoye's mouth, and without pausing for a moment, his figure flashed past and in the blink of an eye he leaped over the high palace wall, with Diaoye following closely behind.

The two people, the beast, and the face fled dozens of miles from the palace until they reached the depths of a quiet bamboo forest, where Emperor Beizun finally stopped.

'Bah! '

They threw Lord Sikong to the ground like a burden.

'Pfft! Ugh...cough cough...cough cough...'

Fallen leaves, mixed with dust, swirled up in the air. Sikong Jin took a deep breath, coughing violently from the choking sensation. She scrambled to her feet, not even bothering to dry her clothes, and pointed her slender finger at Di Beizun, finally snapping at him, "Di Beizun, can't you be a little gentler? Don't you know I'm delicate? You'll hurt me terribly if I fall! How will your wife ever put up with you again?!"

"Is this how you treat your savior?"

Di Beizun's beautiful face was now covered with a frosty gloom.

"Bullshit! If you hadn't told me to distract them, would I have been chased so badly?"

Sikong Jin replied innocently.

"Sikong Jin, I really want to kill you with one palm strike!"

Di Beizun's cold tone was unlike his usual calm and collected manner. He had never known that there was such a master in this world who could infuriate people to death without even making a move!

Sikong Jin glanced at him, then dusted herself off. Seeing his pale face, she coughed a few times, took a few steps forward, and stopped in front of Di Beizun. A pure smile appeared on her delicate face. "Your Highness, please don't be angry. It's all my fault. I was just scared out of my wits. Hehe, I didn't mean anything by it. I swear to the moon, look, I have something good for you..."

Lord Sikong swiftly pulled a ruby ​​from his sleeve, glanced at it with obvious reluctance, and then reluctantly handed it to Emperor Beizun, feigning generosity and sincerity, saying, "Your Highness, look, this is a ruby! I'm giving it to you to repay your life-saving grace!"

Lord Sikong was heartbroken and turned his head away, unable to bear looking at the ruby ​​any longer!

This ruby ​​was something she had just managed to pry out of a priceless gold and gemstone platter in a palace when Emperor Bei Zun wasn't looking. Because of time constraints, she only picked the largest one, but unexpectedly…

He couldn't help but pray silently in his heart—

Dude, tell me quickly, you don't want my stuff...
