"Kacha …"

Suddenly, there was a sound. When he raised his head, he saw two black shadows sneakily flashing past the roof of the Ronghua Palace. In the blink of an eye, they had already flown out of the palace.

Prime Minister Qin's heart sank, his eagles' eyes shot out a cold green light, and he performed a light skill to chase after Yue Yang.

He wanted to see who exactly it was that dared to barge into the Magnificent Brocade Palace in the middle of the night.

Hong Dan and Cheng Shuang's foundation were pretty good, but they were stopped by Prime Minister Qin before they could even fly out a few steps. It could be seen that Prime Minister Qin was a hidden expert.

The two of them descended in a hurry and stood firmly on the rooftop.

In the next second, Prime Minister Qin's palm that seemed like a sharp blade slicing through the face struck at them.

Hong Dan was shocked, he looked at Cheng Shuang and responded to the palm strike with the sharp sword in his hand.

The sounds of clashing swords and sabers were somewhat ear-piercing in this dark and cold palace. Soon, they were discovered by the patrolling imperial guards.

"Catch the assassin …"

This loud and clear shout was like a clap of thunder that exploded within the palace.

All of a sudden, the sounds spread to every corner of the palace, and the flames shot out in all directions, as if wanting to illuminate the horizon. The imperial guards formed a group and surrounded Hong Dan and Cheng Shuang.

"How dare you, thief, surrender without a fight!"

In that moment of crisis, Prime Minister Qin struck Orange Frost's shoulder with his palm and sent her rolling back into the encirclement of the imperial guards.

Chen Shuang originally wanted to struggle to get up, but several swords firmly pointed at her throat. A wave of coldness passed from the tip of the blade to her throat. As long as she wasn't moved, her throat would be pierced and she would die.

"Old bastard Qin, come catch me if you dare!"

Hong Dan looked at Cheng Shuang who had fallen into the encirclement, and started to spin around anxiously. But when he thought about Miss, who was still in the secret room, his heart hardened, and he turned to fly in another direction.

Chen Shuang, I'm sorry. For the sake of the little miss, I can only abandon you. You know, our lives were saved by the Lady.

Only by moving the Prime Minister Qin's line of sight could Miss be safe.

As Hong Dan dealt with the formidable palm wind produced by the Prime Minister Qin, he could not help but turn around to glance at the dying Cheng Shuang that was being escorted away by the imperial guards.

"Stop this senseless struggle. Speak, what are your intentions for coming to the palace? "

In the end, Hong Dan was still too young, and could not defeat the scheming and scheming Prime Minister Qin. The sharp sword in his hand had been snatched away by Prime Minister Qin, and was currently pointing coldly at him.

She nervously clenched her fists as sweat poured down like rain, staring at Prime Minister Qin's every move.

If Prime Minister Qin wanted to take her away, she would definitely bite her tongue and commit suicide, never falling into his hands.

"Prime Minister Qin, it's better not to waste your breath. If you want to kill me, kill me or cut me up, you can do it."

Hong Dan did not look at him anymore, he turned to look at the direction of the Glorious Palace, and closed his eyes as if he had lost all hope.

Prime Minister Qin looked at the Ronghua Palace she was looking at just now.

Her eyes turned cold, without any hesitation, she wielded her sword and suddenly slashed at Hong Dan's throat, the sword formed a stream, and decisively killed her.

But just as the sword flow was about to cut into the thin skin of Hong Dan's throat, it was blocked by a bright blade.

Prime Minister Qin was careless for a moment. After being hit by the rebound, his center of gravity wasn't stable and he quickly took a few steps back. The smell of blood gushed out from the corner of his mouth.

When he regained his senses, Hong Dan had long been hugged by the waist by the person who came before him, and disappeared into the darkness of the night.

He suddenly turned around, and the imperial guards fell to the ground, wailing and rolling around. They had clearly been attacked, and the people they were escorting had long since disappeared.

Furious, he hurried to fly in the direction of the Hall of Excellence.

In the secret room, he walked step by step towards Nangong Xuanyi who was lying on the stone bed. Seeing that his face was still pale, his breathing became weaker and weaker, as if he was about to die.

The corner of his mouth curled up into a cold smile before he left the secluded room in satisfaction.

"Thank you, young master, for saving me."

Inside the capital's Red Dust Inn, Hong Dan bowed to the fair and handsome young master in front of him.

This man was the one who had pulled her back from the gates of hell.

"Miss, no need to be so polite. This is what I should do."

The man's face remained as cold as ice. He answered her indifferently and then fell silent.

"I don't know where young master lives, but in the future, little girl will come to thank you."

The man's cold attitude did not embarrass Hong Dan. Instead, the more he looked at him, the more he felt that this man was perfect, and was deeply attracted by the cold aura coming from his body.

"I …"

"Haha …" Hong Dan, you might as well give up your life for now … "

Hong Dan was waiting for the man's reply, when he heard his young miss's mocking voice.

Her face was hot, a blush crawling down her red face, the heat in her body was unsettling, she immediately ran towards Bai Zhixi, making her angry.

"Miss, you're making fun of me again!"

She only wanted to know where he lived because she felt that the man who had saved her was very much like her younger brother, who had died early.

Now that the young miss had said such words, instead of feeling the same way, he felt extremely embarrassed. He didn't even know how to face him.

"Mu Sheng, how's the investigation going? Do you know where he appeared when the crown prince went missing?"

Bai Zhixi was so weak that she could only eat three bowls of blood. She never thought that it would take half of her life.

"Miss, before Xuan King went missing, he appeared at the east gate with Divine Doctor Qing Zi. Where is a river that leads to the Xi Liang? Prince Xuan is very likely to be thrown into the river. "

Mu Sheng remained as cold as ever. His expression did not even change when he spoke.

"Miss? "They are …"

Hearing Mu Sheng call Bai Zhixi like that, Hong Dan looked at Bai Zhixi in confusion.

Seeing her nod her head, Hong Dan suddenly realised. No wonder his martial arts was above hers, he was a person who protected the blood bead, and was also a descendant of Southern Barbarian like Ah Yi.

"Mu Sheng, you and Hong Dan can pretend to be out of the city and search along the river. Although Nangong Xuan was a little unreliable, he was not stupid. He would find a way to save himself. As for his failure to return … Maybe he lost his memory and couldn't find his way home. Or maybe he just came back from the dead and waited for us to rescue him. "

Bai Zhixi's expression became gloomy, the most important thing for him to do now was to find Nangong Xuan before Prime Minister Qin rebelled.

Otherwise, even if Prime Minister Qin's conspiracy was exposed, with her own strength, the entire imperial court would never believe a young girl like her.

At that time, his life would be in danger, and the gains wouldn't make up for the losses.

"Yes, Miss!"

Mu Sheng and Hong Dan answered at the same time. The two of them looked at each other and their ears instantly turned red, feeling a little uncomfortable.

The night was heavy, and the last bit of the moonlight was submerged in darkness. Hong Dan and Mu Sheng followed Bai Zhixi's instructions and pretended to be husband and wife, returning home. They smoothly exited the city gate and went downstream to look for Nangong Xuan.

"Master, Miss Bai's people have already gone to look for the Southern Frontier Prince, do you still want my people to go and support them?"

In the house on the east side of the capital, the candlelight flickered and a slender shadow was reflected in the window, as if writing something down.

Suddenly hearing the sound, the writer stopped writing, raised his head to look at the pitch-black night sky, and began to write and paint again.

"Ao Ying, go with Xiao Ning Yan. You must ensure that the Southern Frontier Prince returns to the Imperial Palace safely."

Jun Mohan instructed with a calm voice, he then raised his brush and continued writing the poem.

There were beauties who would never forget them. They would not see each other for a day, and their thoughts would go wild.

Xi Er, are you still thinking about me …

Seeing that he had fallen into desolation, Jun Mohan waved his sleeves to extinguish the remaining candlelight. That slender figure of his immediately disappeared from the window, only leaving behind a bottomless darkness and coldness.

At this time, Nangong Xuan was lying on the stone bed in the cave, thinking about something. Qing Zi was dancing in the cave, a trace of crystal clear water droplets hanging from the corner of her mouth, making her look extremely disgusting.

"Pa …"

Qing Zi suddenly stopped and pointed his sharp sword at Nangong Xuan's chest. His beautiful eyes burned with a raging fire, as if he was going to roast Nangong Xuan alive.

"I'm warning you, if you peek at me again, I'll dig out your eyeballs and throw them into the river to feed the fishes."

Qing Zi glanced at him coldly, then sheathed his sword. He turned around and left without looking back, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

"Hello …" We are from the same sect after all, is there a need for you to treat me like this? "

Nangong Xuan waved his fist towards her direction as he spoke viciously.

In the next second, Nangong Xuan was already here. How could she like this cold and heartless woman?

Suddenly, he missed the women that he had always submitted to. That was what a woman should be called.

Hong Dan and Mu Sheng wandered around on the river for an entire day and night before they finally found the location of the cliff on the map.

The two of them were overjoyed. They did not want to continue climbing up the rugged rocks, wanting to find out what happened.

However, they had only climbed up for a short distance when a powerful force of resistance came over, directly chopping the two of them down.

"What should we do? It is extremely likely that Crown Prince will be trapped inside the cliff, but with the two of us here, it would be difficult for us to climb up. "

Hong Dan looked around, her pretty eyes filled with unwillingness, and said worriedly.

"I will use my inner force to send you up, then I will think of a way later."

Mu Sheng's temperament was calm and serious, so he was chosen by Ye Shixue at such a young age to be the guardian of the blood bead.

He looked at the cliff that was enveloped in dense fog, it was bottomless, he frowned slightly, took a deep breath, and pushed Hong Dan away with a palm.

Going against the wind, Hong Dan closed his eyes, the coldness in his ears was like a sharp blade, ruthlessly cutting at her face, it was extremely painful.

Deep into the fog, only then did Hong Dan slowly open her eyes. A crack could be seen on the cliff face, and without enough time to think, she flew in.

His heart felt a little strange. Why didn't he feel any resistance this time?

She crouched down and held her breath as she walked in step by step.

The further in he went, the more he saw Nangong Xuan's bright colored belt. This was something that signified his status as a crown prince.

Hong Dan was overjoyed, he immediately relaxed and ran towards the yellow belt, impatiently picking it up.

Just at that moment, a sharp sword transformed into a shadow, piercing through the layers of wind and waves, shooting towards the center of her brows.
