Hide And Cultivate In The East Palace, Only To Find The Prince Is A Girl-Chapter 995 - : The Ninth Princess ’Limit, One for One
Chapter 995: The Ninth Princess ‘Limit, One for One
..
Shunyi District, in a luxurious courtyard.
In the study room.
It was dark, and there was no light at all. In addition, the moonlight was not very good tonight. It was so dark that one could not even see their fingers when they stretched out their hands.
The three of them sat around the table. A young woman was sitting at the head of the table. She was wearing a luxurious purple dress, a hairpin, earrings, and a jade bracelet. A sparkling light flowed around her, and she was priceless. Her aura was powerful. Even if she sat there motionless, it would make people afraid and not dare to look at her.
On the left, there was a young man sitting on the seat of honor. He was wearing a blue brocade robe with a gold collar and exquisite patterns embroidered on his chest. He was also extraordinary and had a noble aura. On the right, there was an old man sitting on the seat of honor. He had white hair. Compared to them, his aura was restrained and did not emit a trace. He was wearing a gray linen robe and looked harmless. From his appearance, he looked like an old man next door.
The three of them were none other than the Ninth Princess, Shang Qingxuan, and the Sixth Prince, Shang Lin. There was also the person in charge of the Primordial Demon God in Grand Xia’s capital, Li Chengfeng.
All of them were expressionless and solemn.
The atmosphere was oppressive, solemn, and cold. At the same time, it was very quiet. They could even hear each other’s breathing.
After an unknown period of time.
The Ninth Princess broke the silence.” I just received news that the last of my men were destroyed at Qilin Market,” she said coldly.
The two of them were silent and had nothing to say!
The Ninth Princess continued,” From stealing the Universal Sword Formation, the formula of the Flaming Thunder Pearl, the Righteous Bone-Setting, to the defensive map of the Xia army, only the Righteous Bone-Setting succeeded. They could have left alive, but they all died in one night. Fortunately, we sent the items back in advance. Otherwise, we would have failed.”
The atmosphere became heavier, as if there were two huge mountains pressing down on his heart. He felt aggrieved, but he had no place to vent! It was even colder. Although the Sixth Prince and Li Chengfeng were enduring it, their eyes that were as sharp as knives, their clenched fists, and the murderous intent that was about to be suppressed were still betraying their inner thoughts.
He continued.
“It’s like there’s an invisible hand that’s going against us and destroying all our plans. Otherwise, with BenGong’s careful plan, even if the Xia Country’s Imperial Court were to break it, it would be impossible to completely crack it!”
“Sigh!” Li Chengfeng sighed helplessly.
He loosened his clenched fists, and the killing intent in his eyes dissipated. He returned to his previous appearance, and his expression did not change even if Mount Tai collapsed in front of him. His rationality prevailed, and he put an end to the actions of these days.
“You’ve already done your best. Even if this old man attacked, it wouldn’t be much. It’s not your fault! We can only say that we underestimated the Absolute Beginning Demon God, or that their power is even more terrifying than we thought.”
” You want me to go back?” the Ninth Princess asked. She was smart enough to read between the lines.
Li Chengfeng did not answer directly. Instead, he reminded her tactfully,” Your status is precious. You will be more useful when you go back than if you stay.”
The smile on the Ninth Princess’s beautiful face was like a blooming flower. It was mesmerizing.” You know me. Either I don’t do it, or I do it to the best of my ability!”
Her beautiful eyes were filled with coldness.
” To me, failing four times in a row is worse than death. Moreover, we still don’t know who the one who attacked us is. If we don’t figure it out, I won’t be satisfied!”
Li Chengfeng knew the princess’s character. Although she was a girl, her pride was stronger than a man. What happened these days had dealt a huge blow to her. If it was an ordinary person, they would have collapsed or fled after losing so much power. However, she didn’t. She wanted to get back at him. With her powerful methods and power, she shouldn’t waste it here. ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com
“Go back and leave this matter to me.”
Prince Six took over and tried to persuade him.” Lord Li is right. Sister Nine, you go back first. I will stay behind and fight with the people in the dark.”
The ninth princess shook her head. She didn’t look down on him at all. She told him the truth.” Have you forgotten our previous agreement?” No matter what happens in the Xia Dynasty, if the situation doesn’t look right, you must return immediately! If you succeed, all the credit will be yours. If you fail, I’ll take the blame.”
Seeing that the Sixth Prince was about to speak, he waved his hand to interrupt.
“The Crown Prince is still undecided. Sixth Brother, if you stay, what will happen to the other side? Was he going to let go of his previous preparations just like that? What do you think of the people who follow you?”
The Sixth Prince tried his best to open his mouth, trying to find words to refute. However, after opening his mouth for a long time, it was as if he had the strength of a thousand catties. He was stunned and could not say a word.
The Ninth Princess patted the back of his hand. Her eyes sparkled.” We can leave the investigation of the mastermind to Lord Li, but there is one person who must be eliminated!” If he doesn’t die, he will be a huge disaster for Great Shang!”
The two of them knew who it was. It was Zhang Ronghua!
This kid was too young, yet he was so capable. Although his cultivation was not that great, he was talented, knowledgeable, and had a deep foundation. He wrote the Celestial Emperor’s biography, refined the Flame Thunder Pearl, and improved 197 things, including spiritual items. When his power increased, if he was transferred back to the Ministry of Works or the Ministry of War to continue his research, or if he was more powerful in military matters, the harm he would bring would be greater.
Even so, in the battle that had erupted a while ago, including the sneak attack by Zhang Ming and the others, the Shang Dynasty had lost more than 100,000 soldiers. The rest of the losses were even more severe.
Ordinary methods would not work if they wanted to kill him, not even by threatening his family or relatives. The people of the Absolute Beginning Demon God were secretly protecting him, especially the residence at the Vermilion Bird Lane. It was like a forbidden zone for life. Anyone who approached it would disappear. They had also obtained some information from the investigation.
