Within the estate, in a pavilion, a young man wearing a noble robe was leisurely playing the flute.
This young man was truly handsome. His jet-black hair drifted down to his waist. From afar, his back looked extremely elegant. Xiao Yin was also a natural beauty, as if she was a heavenly music to the ears.
At this moment, not too far away from the hallway, two silhouettes could be seen heading in the direction of the long-haired youth.
Very quickly, as if he had sensed something, Xiao Yin disappeared, and the long-haired youth frowned as he gently placed the Xiao Monarch down. Turning around, he saw one of the two figures clad in heavy black armor, a rather heroic looking general.
This person was none other than the leader of the imperial guards who had been ordered to kill Princess Chi Yao not long ago and disappeared from the empire.
After arriving in front of the second prince, Long Kun, the leader of the imperial guards immediately bent down and bowed. In front of the second prince, Long Kun, the normally arrogant and haughty Divine Martial general had actually become a lowly and obedient servant.
"Your Highness, greetings to the Second Prince. Your subordinate's mission has failed. Please punish me." The leader of the imperial guards said with his head lowered.
His eyes trembled slightly. This was the reverence the lower class had for the upper class.
"Oh, my royal sister can actually escape the pursuit of your imperial guards? Isn't your imperial guards known as the strongest cavalry in the empire? Today, you can't even catch a weak girl?! " The Second Prince, Long Kun's eyes narrowed, and his gaze turned cold. Others might not know what kind of expression was on his face, but there must be some sort of anger contained within it.
"Princess Chi Yao, your subordinate had already scouted her and chased after her immediately. Who would've thought that you would be so close. Your subordinate succeeded. If it wasn't for someone taking her away …" The leader of the imperial guards said with his head lowered. He didn't dare look at Long Kun because he was afraid that this luxurious youth would lose his temper again.
"Who is it?" Long Kun still narrowed his eyes. If Long Xueruo had fled back to the Imperial City, although she wouldn't have destroyed his power.
However, there would still be factors that would be disadvantageous to him. After all, this person had a very good relationship with Crown Prince Zhaoming, and they were from the same mother as well. If she knew the truth, she would definitely deal with him a hundred percent of the time.
"A youth of sixteen years old. This person was dressed in white, and my subordinate had released his strongest cultivation and aura, but I was still unable to suppress him."
Although this person was only a Saint Ruler, he was invincible in battle!
Your subordinate was at the peak of the Divine Rotation Realm, but was unable to defeat your opponent in the end! "
The leader of the imperial guards had a look of guilt on his face. He had completely lost the result of this battle, and let alone how the Second Prince would punish him at that time, he was actually forced to retreat by a sixteen-year-old youth at the final moment. If this were to spread, then his face as a general wouldn't be able to remain.
"General Zhang, what do you have to say?" The corners of the Second Prince Long Kun's lips curled up in a cold smile as he looked towards the leader of the imperial guards.
"Nope." The leader of the imperial guards lowered his head in shame. In this battle, he had indeed lost. Losing to a Void Transformation Stage or even a Heavenly Wheel Stage old monster might have felt nothing, but he had actually lost to a youth. This was truly a bit outrageous.
"Men, drag General Zhang out and beat him to a hundred and fifty strong." As soon as the second prince's voice fell, two middle-aged men stepped forward, one on the left and one on the right, ready to press down on the head of the imperial guards' arms.
"Hold on." At this moment, a voice suddenly rang out. A beautiful woman dressed in palace clothing suddenly walked over from the end of the hallway towards the pavilion, one step at a time.
