“Kill her! Hurry and kill her!” The Eldest Princess’s shrieks resounded throughout the palace.

The group of Elders looked ill.

The leader of the guards could wait no longer. He suddenly mobilized his troops, and prepared to attack Ji Fengyan.

But…

Ji Fengyan raised her brows when she looked at the troops that were poised for action. She held the evil-vanquishing sword to the Eldest Princess’s neck.

An icy feeling spread through the Eldest Princess’s tender neck and instantly halted her cursing.

Through half-closed eyes, Ji Fengyan swept a glance at the troops that were preparing to attack. The corners of her mouth curled in a trace of a malicious smile.

“Those who break the rules of the bet will be punished. If you are not interested in continuing, then… I’ll cut off her head now.”

Ji Fengyan’s lips were smiling, but her words made their hair stand on end.

The leader of the guards, who was about to attack, immediately froze to the spot. The heavy sword in his hand trembled slightly. “Halt. Nobody is to act rashly!” He hurriedly stopped his subordinates from attacking.

Ji Fengyan held the Eldest Princess tightly in her clutches. The leader of the guards did not dare to act rashly. Ji Fengyan had made her attitude clear.

If the bet continued, the Eldest Princess still had a chance of survival.

But if they attacked, Ji Fengyan would immediately cut off the Eldest Princess’s head.

With the Eldest Princess being held hostage, the tens of thousands of guards did not dare to advance for fear of costing the Eldest Princess her life.

Everyone knew that the Eldest Princess was the daughter the Emperor doted on the most. No one dared to be responsible for the Eldest Princess’s death.

They had thought that if they surrounded Ji Fengyan, they would control the situation. Who would have thought that they would be restricted instead?

“Retreat. Everyone, retreat.” The leader of the guards turned pale and issued his orders to the guards behind him. He looked at Ji Fengyan frantically and said, “General Ji, we won’t move and we guarantee that we won’t attack. You may continue with your bet, we will definitely not disturb it in any way. Please don’t harm Her Royal Highness.”

Ji Fengyan smilingly watched the guard’s retreat step by step. Her smile deepened.
