Chapter 540 Conspiracy 27

"Sixth Prince said, if Feng Yixuan really colluded with the Tianqi Nation, I would be unable to escape. I wonder what Feng Yixuan, as Sixth Prince's confidante, would do if this matter were to reach t..."I don't know what's happening on my mother's side, either. This trip back to the Yao tribe, I don't know if it will be dangerous"

Feng Lingxi let out a long sigh, ever since she escaped from Duguo Yu's clutches, she had been relentlessly pursued by assassins in black. She hadn't even had a moment to catch her breath, let alone figure out who was behind this attack.

"Don't worry, Your Highness, the Holy Lord will be fine."

Xiao Li's comfort was pale and powerless, just like her body now. After this period of persecution, how could she believe that there was nothing wrong inside the Yao clan

Even though she was worried, there was nothing she could do to help. The only thing she could do was believe in her mother's abilities, pray for her, and protect herself so that she wouldn't be tricked by them.

After more than half an hour, Duguxing hadn't returned. Feng Lingxi couldn't sit still anymore. She stood at the entrance of the cave, looking out anxiously.

He has been gone for so long and hasn't returned, I'm worried something might have happened to him.

"Your Highness, the Lord hasn't returned in such a long time. Perhaps we should go out and look for him..."

"No, your foot is like that, you can't walk, just wait here for a while."

Feng Lingxi looked into the distance, Duguo City would surely return safely. Those people in black wouldn't come to search the mountain in such heavy snow.

After a long and anxious wait of an hour, Feng Lingxi was becoming restless. She turned to Xiao Li and said, "Stay here and don't wander off. I'm going to take a look around nearby."

Xiao Li responded, "Be careful, Your Highness."

Feng Lingxi answered and walked in the direction where Dugu City left. She searched around but didn't see Dugu City's figure, but she did see Dugu City's footprints. On this thick snow, if this man in black found these footprints, would he find Dugu City

Thinking of this, Feng Lingxi quickened her pace, following the footprints. After walking about two miles, the footprints suddenly disappeared. Feng Lingxi looked around at the surrounding forest, her brows furrowed. Did Dugu City go in

There's plenty of firewood around here. Why didn't Dugu City gather it here and instead risk venturing into the forest

Feng Ling was pondering, but her eyes caught a glimpse of blood on the leaves not far away. Her face changed drastically. She rushed forward, reached out to touch the blood and brought it to her nose. The blood had already coagulated, but it wasn't older than two hours. Could it be that Dugu City had encountered danger

Feng Lingxi followed the bloodstains forward, after a while, she saw a bloodstain on the snow, her face changed greatly, and she hurried to search around. Behind the bushes, she found the body of a man in black. Dugu Cheng had indeed encountered the men in black.

Wind Lingxi checked the time of death of the black-clothed man, confirming it to be within an hour. Looking around, Wind Lingxi was very certain that Dugu City must have been here to avoid being chased by the black-clothed men, maneuvering with them and wanting to defeat them one by one.

Feng Lingxi stood up and followed the bloodstains and footprints, she soon found another body of a man in black behind a thicket of trees. Just like the previous one, there were no markings on his body.

Feng Lingxi knew that all of this was done by Dugu City, but in this direction, it seemed to be the direction out of the mountain. If these men in black were collectively chasing him, the bodies of the men in black would not have been dragged into the bushes, nor would there be only one body. That is to say, the men in black dispersed.

Feng Lingxi glanced at the surrounding mountains and forests, not knowing how long it would take Duguxing to return. If she chased after him like this, what if the black-clothed man discovered the cave and found Xiaoli Then Xiaoli would be in danger.

Without delay, Feng Ling left a mark and returned to the cave.

Compared to Dugu City, Xiao Li needs her protection more.

Wind Ling returned to the cave and, seeing the footprints at the entrance, rushed inside. She saw Xiao Li was still there. Seeing her return, Xiao Li struggled to get up, her eyes wary of the outside. “Your Highness, are you alright”

"Have the people in black arrived"

Xiao Li shook her head, “Just now, the Lord and the men in black passed by the cave. I wanted to go out to help, but the Lord and the men in black had already walked far away. I was worried that there would be other men in black coming in, so I hid here and didn't dare to make a sound.”

How long have you been gone

Feng Lingxi's eyes darkened. Wasn't Dugu Cheng just circling the mountain If these black-clad men weren't dealt with, it was unlikely they would have peace.

"It seems there were three or five of them. The prince didn't intend to fight them, but he ran very fast instead."

Feng Lingxi looked at Xiaoli, "You stay here and don't go out, I'll go to the cave entrance to have a look."

Looking at the footprints outside the cave, Feng Lingxi estimated that there were five people. Their steps were chaotic. This cave offered no cover whatsoever, and the men in black hadn't noticed them. It seemed their attention was entirely focused on Dugu City.

Thinking of the several men in black who had been killed, it seemed that Dugu City and they had circled for several hours, and these men in black were almost finished.

Wind Ling looked around, hurried to the bushes not far away, broke a branch and made a path that had been trampled on, about a mile long. In this way, if the black-clothed man chased here, he might run in this direction.

After Feng Lingxi finished tidying up, she turned around and was met with a pair of sharp black eyes. The black clothing stood out against the white snow, as if piercing the whiteness. Seeing Feng Lingxi, the killing intent in the man's eyes made her instinctively take two steps back. She looked at the long sword in his hand, her eyes wary.

"Who sent you to kill me, is it Dugu Yu, Dugu Yan, or Feng Yu Xi"

The man in black didn't answer Feng Lingxi's question. Instead, he strode towards her. The killing intent in his eyes made Feng Lingxi tremble all over. She instinctively groped for the golden needles in her sleeve and, watching him clench the sword in his hand, raised her hands in surrender.

"I surrender, please don't kill me."

The man in black saw her surrender, his brows furrowed, feeling deeply confused. Suddenly, a piercing chill ran down his neck, and he saw Feng Lingxi walking towards him. The man in black's body went limp and fell straight to the ground, his eyes wide with disbelief until his death. He couldn't believe he was killed so easily.

Feng Lingxi walked in front of the man in black, drew out her golden needle, rubbed it on his body, put it back into her sleeve, and threw the corpse into the bushes. Dugu City killed people stained with fresh blood, while she killed without a trace, leaving the enemy unprepared.

Feng Ling Xi returned to the cave, Xiao Li watching her return, like a startled bird, hurriedly getting up, "Your Highness, are you alright"

"Have any people in black been here"

Xiao Li shook her head, looking at the snow on the princess's body, she rushed forward wanting to help her pat it off. Feng Lingxi supported her to sit down.

"Just wait here, I'll be right back."

Feng Ling Xi looked at the extinguished bonfire on the ground, watching Xiao Li shiver so badly her lips were turning purple. "There's still firewood, isn't there How..."

Xiao Li grasped the princess's wrist, "Princess, once a fire starts, the black-clothed men will discover we're here. I can hold them off, we should wait for the lord to return."

Feng Ling Xi took off the outer garment from her own body and draped it over hers, "Bear with it."

Xiao Li clutched her clothes, she was really too cold. The pain from the wound kept her awake. She couldn't let the Princess worry about her, she had to persevere. As long as the black-cloaked men were dealt with, the Prince and Princess could be safe.
