The Cold-Hearted Princess Who Transmigrated Here

Wang Xiyue was still shaken after hearing Mingzhe's words. "Okay, I understand."

It's a blessing that everyone is here.

She must be more cautious in her next operation. Furthermore, she needs to quickly strengthen her own forces; her most pressing tasks are training personnel and establishing a sufficient number of strongholds.

Only in this way can we cope with more and greater difficulties in the future.

"You're still injured, so don't walk around. Try to rest in bed as much as possible. Only by recovering as soon as possible can you do more things."

"This is a vital energy replenishing pill, used for emergency treatment and saving lives when there is excessive blood loss or mental damage."

"Take it!"

"We'll be staying here for the next few days. Just rest and recover, and don't get involved in anything else!"

Mingzhe nodded obediently and respectfully accepted the small medicine bottle handed to him by the young lady, carefully placing it into his inner pocket.

"Just stay in your room and don't go out. I'll have someone bring you breakfast."

"Now, I'm going to see my brother. You should get some rest!"

Mingzhe bowed respectfully, "Yes, Mingzhe will remember Miss's instructions!"

Wang Xiyue pulled Zhuzhu to her brother's room. "Brother, are you up yet?"

Wang Xijie was still angry with Dongfang Yu when he heard his sister's voice, so he hurriedly came to open the door, "Yueyue, you're here! Come in quickly and let your brother see you."

"Are you injured or uncomfortable anywhere? I'll find you a doctor."

Seeing that her brother was in good spirits and everything was normal, Wang Xiyue felt completely relieved.

"Brother, I'm fine, how about you?"

Wang Xijie shook his head vigorously, "I'm fine. Your brother's kung fu is superb, how could I get injured?"

Seeing that her brother was alright, Wang Xiyue became curious and asked, "Brother, where did you settle Lu Song?"

"Also, how did the Black Fiend Gang catch fire?"

Who set the fire?

Wang Xijie picked up the water glass on the table, took a small sip to moisten his throat, and was about to launch into a long speech.

Wang Xiyue interrupted anxiously, "Brother, get to the point?"

Wang Xijie awkwardly scratched his head, then answered succinctly, "I've already arranged for Lu Song to be in the room next to Wang Yi's, and I've also sent Li Feng over to take care of him and keep an eye on him to see if he'll do anything bad."

Then, he frowned and continued, "As for the Black Fiend Gang starting the fire, that's quite strange."

"When we arrived at the Black Fiend Gang, more than ten members had already been drugged, and the remaining ten or so were a rabble, which we easily dealt with in no time."

"When we rescued Mingzhe and Zhuzhu, we found that many parts of the house had already started to catch fire. Seeing that the fire was getting bigger and bigger, and that we had limited manpower, we had no choice but to evacuate back to the inn."

After hearing this, Wang Xiyue guessed that there must be another force behind this, hiding in the shadows to take the opportunity to destroy the Black Fiend Gang. She didn't want to waste time finding out who it was. As long as it wasn't targeting them, she had no interest in caring at the moment.

During the few days that everyone was recuperating, Dongfang Yu didn't want Xiyue to be exposed to too much of those dirty things, so he handed over the task of interrogating Zhu Nan to Mo Yun and the others.

Wang Xiyue was very obedient and didn't interfere; she took on the responsibility of caring for the other three patients on a part-time basis.

Mo Yun was well aware of Zhu Nan's wicked nature and understood that the Prince valued this matter highly, which also reflected his regard for the Princess. Therefore, he strictly followed the Prince's instructions without the slightest carelessness.

They used various torture methods of interrogation to extract all the usefulness out of Zhu Nan, including his treasure and related industries.

As for those parts that should have been confiscated, Mo Yun decisively made them disappear completely from everyone's sight, and then put them into the pockets of the prince and princess with a clear conscience.

As for the criminal accomplices involved, all of them were crippled in martial arts, left with only half a life, and then handed over to the government for processing.

In the last ten days of his life, Zhu Nan also deeply experienced the feeling that life was worse than death.

The people of the Prince Xian's mansion subjected him to every kind of torture they knew, and they weren't afraid of him dying because they had top-quality medicine to serve him. They could always keep him alive until the very last moment before he was about to die.

Zhu Nan felt like a worm that had been tortured to the point of near death, without hands or feet, powerless to resist, and having to endure all kinds of pain and torment every day.

Every time he regained consciousness, he thought he was already in a terrible situation, but later he realized that something even worse was waiting for him.

He wanted to beg for mercy, but his tongue had already been cut off, and he could only make weak sounds.

He has repeatedly experienced all kinds of despair, and now he can finally understand how horrific it was for those he had once captured to be manipulated at will.

He began to regret his actions; if he hadn't been so ruthless, perhaps he could still be living a peaceful life now.

But it was all too late; he had committed an unforgivable crime and therefore had to pay the price.

Zhu Nan didn't know how much longer he could hold on. He couldn't even commit suicide. He could only feel his life slipping away bit by bit.

He hoped it would all end soon; a quick and painless death was his last wish. Unfortunately, each time, his opponent managed to bring him back to life from the brink of death, only to subject him to a new round of despair...

Just as the group was about to set off, Mo Yun decisively chopped off Zhu Nan's head, giving him a quick death, and finally threw the body into a mass grave to be left to rot in the wilderness.

Wang Xiyue felt relieved to know that Zhu Nan had been punished; she felt she had avenged the innocent people he had harmed.

Because the looting was so extensive—not to mention the gambling dens that were shut down and destroyed, the decorations alone from that luxurious cave could be exchanged for several boxes of gold—Wang Xiyue bought out the cargo ship that the Zhang family had borrowed. She also set up a shipping outpost, which served as her second business base.

In this way, the escort agencies in Shancheng can add new transportation routes, not only to transport and sell their own goods, but also to escort goods for others.

Moreover, in Shancheng, she also had Li Xiong lead the clansmen to gradually run some small shops, which could provide work for the people in the charity hall and also collect and transmit information for her.

Li Xiong and Wang Dasheng are each in charge of their own fields, seemingly unrelated, but in fact they complement each other.

They both understood that as long as they worked hard enough, under Miss Wang's guidance, their lives would only get better and better.

Normally, there would be plenty of time to participate in the martial arts tournament, but because they had been intentionally slowing down the pace, the time is now quite tight.

In addition, a major battle with the pirates ensued, which severely injured Dongfang Yu, Li Yang, and Mingzhe, requiring a period of recovery, undoubtedly further delaying their journey.

Now, there are less than ten days left until the martial arts tournament officially begins!

Faced with this urgent situation, everyone stopped delaying and quickened their pace.

They hurried along the way and finally arrived in Yunyang City on the evening of the eighth day.

As the venue for the martial arts tournament, this city was naturally bustling with activity, with people coming and going and traffic flowing freely.

Looking at the bustling scene before them, everyone couldn't help but get excited, looking forward to the upcoming martial arts tournament bringing even more surprises.

Although this martial arts tournament was just a spontaneous event organized by martial arts practitioners, it was exceptionally grand in scale, as if the entire martial arts world had been alarmed.

It seems that all the different sects and factions value the position of the leader of the martial arts alliance very much.

The people who came here all had their own agendas.

Some of the participants in this competition simply wanted to test their skills and see how good they were.

They were not concerned with whether they could win the position of martial arts leader, but rather focused on improving their skills and refining their martial arts techniques.

However, there were also some people who came specifically to join in the fun, such as Wang Xiyue and her group.

They have no interest in the position of martial arts leader, but if they have the opportunity to go on stage and compete, it would be a good experience.

In addition, some people came with other motives.

Some factions came to forge alliances with other sects for future mutual support; while others brought their unmarried children, hoping to find suitable husbands or wives at this martial arts tournament. After all, if their children could marry into a powerful sect, their future would be limitless.

The next day, just as dawn was breaking, the square was already filled with many contestants and spectators.

The noise of people broke the silence of the early morning.

With a heavy, resonant drumbeat, the competition for the title of martial arts alliance leader officially began.

Heroes from all walks of life took to the stage to display their skills, creating a dazzling and spectacular display of swords and spears.

Although Wang Xiyue had recovered from her previous injury, her brother forbade her to participate in the competition, so she had no choice but to sit obediently in the audience and watch.

This trip was to fulfill Wang Xijie's martial arts dream, so he had already actively signed up on his own.

Firstly, he wanted to test how much progress he had made in his recent special training at Moyun; secondly, he also wanted to see where their Prime Minister's Mansion's martial arts level ranked in the martial arts world.

As for the rest of the team, none of them participated.

After all, Wang Xijie's abilities represented the prestige of the Prime Minister's residence, so it didn't matter whether Wang Yi and the other guards went or not.

The guards of the Prince Xian's mansion were all top-notch, and none of them wanted to participate in this childish game. Of course, they also wanted to keep a low profile and not join in the fun.

So everyone sat in the audience and cheered for Wang Xijie.

At this moment, the atmosphere on the field became increasingly heated, and the duel between the masters drew cheers from the audience.

In this tense and exciting atmosphere, fierce battles continued to unfold.

After several rounds of fierce competition, Wang Xijie finally won tenth place.

Although he doesn't look tall, he is actually very outstanding. Mo Yun teaches killing techniques, which are meant to be used in desperate situations. Naturally, he cannot use all the skills he has learned, because this is a martial arts competition, not a battle against an enemy.

Moreover, these legitimate martial arts sects all possess unique martial arts manuals that have been passed down for at least a hundred years, something that court families like the Prime Minister's Mansion cannot match.

After all, they maintained their status by relying on power within the court, not by real military force.

Therefore, although the Prime Minister's guards were well-trained, it was perfectly normal for them to fail when facing martial arts masters with profound skills.

The final battle for first place was between Fang Tianqi, the previous leader of the martial arts alliance, and Lin Fengxiao, the sect leader of the Holy Sword Sect.

Both of them are legendary figures in the martial arts world, each possessing formidable strength and prestige.

This battle attracted the attention of countless people and became the focus of the entire martial arts tournament.

In the martial arts world, the title of Martial Arts Alliance Leader has always been a focus of attention, with each election sparking heated discussions and anticipation. These two candidates are evenly matched, both being among the best in the martial arts world, making a fierce competition inevitable.

The two were of similar age, both in their forties, and had accumulated considerable internal strength. Their martial arts lineages were also quite similar.

The two quickly engaged in a thrilling contest, exchanging sharp and exquisite moves, neither giving an inch.

Wang Xiyue stared wide-eyed at the two people in the room, her heart filled with curiosity and amazement.
