”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.
