When Kong Rui saw that Fu Jiang was actually planning to build a relationship, she immediately felt that it was ridiculous.
She glanced in Lei Ting’s direction before saying to Fu Jiang again, “I’m not from the empire, so you don’t have to know my identity.”
Kong Rui used her divine sense to send a voice transmission to Chao Bai. “Can we take down these two people?”
“Yes!” Chao Bai replied without hesitation.
Although Kong Rui was still a little worried, since Chao Bai said that it was fine, there should be no problem.
“You guys trespassed into Fragrant Garden and even ambushed me! Today, I’ll let you see how powerful the Fragrant Garden is!” Kong Rui shouted and was about to fight Lei Ding and Fu Jiang.
Lei Ting and Fu Jiang already had a rough understanding of Kong Rui’s skills, but the other person seemed to be much stronger than her.
If Kong Rui dared to challenge him at this moment, it meant that the other party wasn’t weak. If they really fought, the outcome would be uncertain.
Although Lei Ding and Fu Jiang were hesitant, they were determined to fulfill their purpose for the trip to Fragrant Garden today!
They had heard from Zi Xuan that she had a secret space that specifically used cultivators gathered from various places to refine medicinal pills and that the effect of these medicinal pills varied according to the user.
After Zi Xuan was captured, she used this secret to exchange for freedom from the Lei family’s First Elder.
On the other hand, Fu Jiang had found out about Zi Xuan’s secret through other channels earlier. When he heard that Zi Xuan had been captured by the Lei family, he went straight to the Lei family’s door to ransom her.
Lei Ting and Fu Jiang each had their own requests, and Zi Xuan could provide them with what they wanted, so the three of them came to Fragrant Garden together to enter the secret space.
As for the black-robed man, his original name was Ji Cang. According to him, he was from the Divine Medicine Heights. He had taken out a spirit herb that was used to treat Old Master Fu Jiang’s chronic illness for decades, so he was asked to stay by Fu Jiang.
Unexpectedly, Ji Cang was so weak that he couldn’t even defeat a petite woman!
Now that he had died here, the Divine Medicine Heights would probably disappear without a trace…
Zi Xuan slowly woke up in Fragrant Garden.
Just as she was about to curse the person who had injured her, he saw that there was no one else around.
After Zi Xuan stood up, she unexpectedly tripped over something under her feet. She took a closer look. Even though she had killed countless people, she was still shocked by the way the man in black died.
At this moment, the man in black had already gradually festered from his torso while emitting a stench.
Zi Xuan covered her mouth and nose and quickly took a few steps back.
At this moment, she heard the sound of fighting at the door and immediately rushed out.
Zi Xuan had just rushed to the door when she saw four people confronting each other.
Lei Ting and Fu Jiang looked at each other. They couldn’t care less about the sect’s reputation now and were prepared to seize the chance to attack.
Zi Xuan had already secretly accumulated strength and was prepared to strike the woman first when the two of them attacked.
However, just as Lei Ding and Fu Jiang were about to attack, their expressions suddenly changed slightly. They quickly stopped what they were doing and glanced at each other. Then, their bodies flashed and they disappeared.
Zi Xuan had no idea what had happened.
At this moment, she was using all her strength to pull out the soft sword at her waist and stab at the woman.
The sudden departure of her two companions made Zi Xuan feel that something was wrong. However, it was too late to stop now.
Seeing that Zi Xuan had actually rushed out, Kong Rui unfurled an iron fan at Zi Xuan without hesitation.
Chao Bai wasn’t in a hurry to attack.
He could tell that the current Zi Xuan was no match for Kong Rui!
“If something happened to the princess, why did it take so long for someone to report it?!” Lei Ting roared at his subordinates angrily.
His subordinates trembled, but didn’t dare to say anything.
Lei Ting glared at that person and slammed his hand on the armrest of the chair beside him. The veins on his face were already bulging.
The princess’ death concerned the future of the empire. Although the five families had their own motives for gathering in the imperial capital, they all coveted the power of the imperial capital’s royal family.
Lei Ting was already very dissatisfied that the Nie family got the chance to establish a marital alliance with the princess. The future heir of the Lei family had died in the imperial capital, but before he could settle the score with the royal family, the princess suddenly died.
Strange incidents happened one after another. Could it be that someone was really secretly attacking the five great clans?
