They didn't expect that the moment we entered the great hall of the Fengdu Ghost City, we would see a shocking scene. Princess of Fengdu Xia Mingtianji was hung from the ceiling of the great hall.
”Mother!” Hearing Shuo Yue's shocked exclamation, her heart tore apart.
Who exactly was this? The next time he was able to harm the Princess of Fengdu, it was likely that the Princess of Fengdu was not a good person either. To be able to persecute her to such an extent, only the Ghost King would be able to do so.
And from the looks of it, Xia Mingtianji had already been imprisoned for more than a day or two. Otherwise, he would not be in such a sorry state, and had lost so much weight.
”Shuo Yue, I think this is a trap, let's not panic!” I reminded him.
”Even if this is a trap, but it's my mother over there, I can't sit still and do nothing. I'll go over first, you guys stay here and watch. If we're both in danger, please don't do anything!”
Sigh, Shuo Yue is always like this. You take care of everything by yourself, and then go and face it by yourself. Even if the one on top is your mother, although she is a princess of a Fengdu, aren't we friends? Can I let you face the danger alone?
Seriously, after knowing each other for so long, I still don't know who we are.
”Shuo Yue, you stop, come back! I'll go over! ” I immediately called out to Shuo Yue and decided to go up and check it out myself.
Shuo Yue seemed to be shocked as she turned around and stared at me blankly: ”You guys don't need to meddle in this trivial matter, okay? This is clearly a family matter within our Ghosts, do what you have to do, quickly go! ”
”Shuo Yue, what are you saying! You are a Eldest Brother of my rain house, let's not talk about being in the same sect as me, or are we friends who have experienced hardships in the past. What do you mean by ”your Ghosts's family matters”, I'll tell you this: you two have no family matters at all! You are my junior and brother, and I am responsible for protecting you! ”
Before removing the seal, I can't solemnly swear the word ”protect”. After all, I have a high status in terms of my ability, so how can I protect others? But today, I can tell Shuo Yue that you can protect you. Watching you suffer so many hardships as the successor of the rain house, I can now protect you as the OP.
Shuo Yue seemed to be shocked by these words, and was stunned looking at Xia Mingtianji who was standing above.
”Mother! How are you, Mother! Open your eyes and take a look! ” Shuo Yue called out, but the Princess of Fengdu did not make a move, Shuo Yue was already crying from anxiety, from the looks of it, she did not even know if the princess was alive or dead.
After I poured the Spiritual Energy into my hands, it immediately flew up into the air and became huge. No one present had ever seen such a flamboyant spirit beast, so they all opened their eyes wide and looked at me, especially Daoist Three Purities.
”Shuo Yue, follow me ~!” I pulled Shuo Yue along and climbed onto the pyretic lustre together, preparing to fly over to rescue Princess of Fengdu.
Shuo Yue nodded, and followed me up the pyretic lustre, and after the pyretic lustre grows big, it's more than enough to ride on two people.
The pyretic lustre shook its wings and flew up, bringing Shuo Yue and I up into the sky.
The people below were still dumbstruck. Although they knew that there were spirit beasts in this world, this was still the first time they had seen something so cool.
The pyretic lustre's entire body released a fiery red glow, as if it was burning. After spreading its wings, it spiraled in the air, leaving behind a beautiful fiery red tail.
As she flew in front of the Princess of Fengdu, Shuo Yue shouted for her mother with all her might. The Princess of Fengdu finally opened her eyes.
”Sou, Shuo Yue?” The Princess of Fengdu moved a little and slowly turned his head. Looking at Shuo Yue and I, he seemed to be extremely weak.
But when Xia Mingtianji opened his eyes, I felt that the atmosphere had become weird. I didn't know what had happened, but I felt that something was going to happen.
Shuo Yue, on the other hand, was more concerned with chaos. She simply did not have the mood to bother with other matters, and extended her hand to untie the bindings of the Princess of Fengdu.
”Mother, how did you get here? I'll put you down right now.” Shuo Yue deeply called out, her hand stretched out to undo the Princess of Fengdu's binding, and the princess fell into Shuo Yue's embrace.
”Shuo Yue, Shuo Yue, leave quickly! It's not safe here! ” Princess of Fengdu repeated these words. It was as if she had received some sort of shock, and her consciousness was no longer clear.
After saving him, we sat on the pyretic lustre and flew down, it was rather smooth. The problem is, since the other party used Xia Mingtianji as a method to threaten Shuo Yue, why did they allow us to save him?
Could it be that they were simply imprisoning the Princess of Fengdu, and didn't expect that we would coincidentally come to the great hall of the Fengdu from the Middle Yuan Section s? That's why we were able to surprise the princess?
No, that's not right. If it's like this, they can imprison the princess anywhere, but why do they have to do it on the beams of the central hall of the Fengdu.
The more I thought about it, the more it seemed wrong, but by the time I realized there was something wrong, it was too late.
The ”Princess of Fengdu” in Shuo Yue's embrace pulled out a dagger and stabbed deeply into Shuo Yue's chest!
”AHH!” I cried out in alarm, immediately holding on to the pyretic lustre firmly. Then, I struck Kyle's shoulder with my palm, and the dagger in his hand fell to the ground.
