To ensure a...Everyone, upon hearing Lian Yi's explanation, had an expression of understanding on their faces, which quickly turned from one to another with increasingly grim expressions. Su Yun coldly said:

"Just for a single martial arts technique, she wants to exterminate our entire Su Nü Palace! She truly deserves to be reviled by the world as a poisonous woman. Only someone like her would use such ruthless methods to achieve her goals, treating human lives as insignificant!"

"Xiang Yi brought people who were all killed, will she have the court come after us"

Susulan said with some worry.

“Sister Su Lan, please rest assured. This is Xiang Yi’s private matter, intended to keep herself youthful. If the court dares to use this as an excuse against us, then they could find any reason to target other sects someday. The emperor wouldn't do anything to exacerbate the conflict between the imperial court and the martial world.”

Ripple held a piece of spiritual marrow in her hand, slowly circulating her energy, gently pressing down on the dull pain in her heart.

"Little junior sister, don't speak first, adjust your body first."

Wang Zhenzhen nervously stared at the ripples and said.

"Don't worry, Master Sister. I'm not that fragile."

Ripple grinned, but Wang Zhenzhen didn't buy it. She just frowned and stared at Ripple.

"Let's not talk about those things for now. They're not what we need to focus on right now. We'll discuss them after we deal with the immediate situation."

Suyun was in charge of cleaning the battlefield, burying the corpses of those black-clad, masked men somewhere.

Sulan, you are responsible for healing and comforting the injured disciples. If any new disciples want to leave the mountain, this is a good opportunity to let them go so they won't regret it later.

"I'll leave it to the junior sister to explain the new formation, and Senior Sister Zhen will carry it out. It has to be finished before dawn. I'm going to see Master and tell her the situation."

Su Lin assigned everyone tasks in just a few words, then turned to Lian Yi and said:

"Whatever you've done, I'll tell the master. Think about your explanation beforehand, don't say I won't help you."

After finishing his words, he vanished from the yard.

Everyone received their assignments and went about their tasks. Lian Yi then carefully explained the method and specific location for setting up the mist formation to Wang Zhenzhen.

"Little sister, I'll go set things up first. You can rest here."

Wang Zhenzhen, following Lianri's instructions, dug up all the spiritual marrow she had previously used to set up a mist formation within the sect. Then, according to Lianri's description, she rearranged and placed it outside the mountain gate.

After Wang Zhenzhen left, Lian Yi couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood. The pain in her heart became more apparent. She wiped the blood from her mouth and said helplessly:

"This body is such a hassle, I pushed myself too hard just now."

She actually wanted to kill Princess Xiangyi directly. Unfortunately, her sudden outburst at the time had resolved the remaining guards around Princess Xiangyi, and her heart was already somewhat overloaded. Besides, if Princess Xiangyi died in front of Sù Nué Palace, the court would have a legitimate reason to wipe them out.

Even if Xiangyi's reputation was terrible, and she had even brought this peril upon herself, she was still a princess, a member of the royal family. Even for the sake of the royal face, they would not allow a princess of a nation to die at the hands of a martial arts sect.

After weighing the pros and cons, Lian Yi let her leave, but she didn't allow the other party to gain any advantage. This time, the people she brought out, besides herself, all died, and her face was also scarred. I believe that with this lesson learned, she will keep a low profile for a short period of time.

Things unfolded much as expected. When the frenzied carriage raced along, it burst into the town at the foot of the Su Nü Palace and was promptly spotted by those who were looking out for it.

These were the people who had been secretly watching Xiangyi, and they were also close to the emperor. When they went forward to check, they found Xiangyi covered in blood and unconscious, as well as a bloody head in her arms. They were terrified and immediately notified people nearby to come to their aid.

By the time Xiangyi had finally made her way back to the imperial city, her wounds hadn't healed. Her temper had grown even more volatile; she slaughtered numerous maidservants and male companions, leaving the physicians who came to treat her trembling in fear. News of this naturally reached the emperor's ears first thing.

The current emperor is Xiangyi's elder brother, though not born of the same mother. In the eyes of outsiders, the two have a deep bond. Even though Xiangyi's reputation is so poor, the emperor has never considered stripping her of the title of Princess Xiangyi. Therefore, when the emperor learned that Xiangyi was unwell, he personally visited her accompanied by his attendants.

How is Xiangyi's injury

When the Emperor arrived at Xiangyi's palace, he summoned the imperial physician to inquire about her condition.

"Your Majesty, Princess Xiangyi has wounds on her face. I don't know what kind of weapon caused them. Even with the best gold ointment, the wounds won't heal."

Sun the doctor bowed and replied.

But was it poisoned

The Emperor's voice rose two points.

"It wasn't that it didn't heal, but rather that the wound would reopen whenever the princess became emotionally agitated. We comforted her and urged her to stay calm, but she..."

Sun the doctor was also helpless. Faced with such a patient who wouldn't cooperate and was even throwing a tantrum, he was very embarrassed.

"I know, you may go now! I'll go persuade Xiangyi."

The emperor sent Sun the imperial physician away, and then he went to Xiangyi's bedroom.

"Go! All of you, leave! Do not come in!"

As soon as the emperor stepped over the threshold, a white porcelain teacup flew towards him, narrowly dodged by his sharp-eyed and quick-witted guard.

"Princess Xiangyi, His Majesty has come to visit you!"

The guard shouted loudly.

There was a moment of silence in the room before Xiangyi's resentful voice echoed out:

"Big brother, come in yourself! I don't want others to see me like this."

"Great!"

The Emperor was very patient. He left his guards at the door and went in alone. After a full half hour, the Emperor left Xiangyi's bedroom, only instructing her to rest and recover. He said he would discuss everything else once she was healed and also bestowed upon her many medicinal herbs for beauty and health, showing his care for his sister.

When the emperor returned to Qinyi Hall, he asked the guards around him:

"What did she do"

Princess Xiangyi wished to remain eternally youthful. Upon hearing a maidservant's words, she learned about the "Xuan Gong of the Virgins" practiced in the Palace of Purity, which was said to be suitable for women and had the effect of preserving beauty. She became intrigued.

And she probably set her sights on the current mistress of Sū Nyü Palace, Sù Mín Yí, wanting to take over Sū Nyü Palace and force her to hand over her inner strength to help her stay young forever.

"The results hit a snag. Not only did he fail to seize the martial arts techniques, but everyone around him died without a trace, and his own face was scarred."

The emperor said slowly.

"Yes, the Su Nü Palace probably took her princess status into consideration and spared her life. Otherwise..."

Otherwise, what

She must die! I also checked the head of the captain of the guards around the princess, it was a single blow that killed him. When his head was cut off, he should have still been able to move.

"Ma Shou's skill is only slightly inferior to mine. Ordinary martial artists would be no match for him, and besides, the guards are equipped with some special gear. The opponent clearly didn't give Ma Shou a chance to use it."

“You mean their martial arts skills are higher than yours”

The emperor also became interested, after all, the people who could stay by his side as personal guards were not ordinary in terms of martial arts.

It's a close call!

“Could this be for me”
