Whatever that the Emperor said would only make him a laughingstock—one that was so scared of dying that he would rather sacrifice his own daughter to take the blame.

Seeing that there was no way out, the Emperor took a deep breath and stabilized his emotions. He composed himself and looked at Ji Fengyan.

“Ji Fengyan, what exactly do you want? Do you know how much trouble you will bring to the Ji family because of your actions today? Aren’t you scared of implicating the entire Ji family?”

“Ji family?” Suddenly, Ji Fengyan laughed. “Did you think that I would care about their lives? Sorry but after I have settled this score with you, I will also do the same with them.”

The Emperor’s face flushed white and he suddenly recalled that Ji Fengyan had mentioned how she had lived a life worse than a servant at the Ji residence before she inherited the World-Termination-Armour. When the Emperor heard about this initially, he paid no attention to it.

But…

He finally realised that because of her experience since a young age, Ji Fengyan had already cut off all ties with Ji family.

Now, it was no longer possible for him to use Ji family as a threat to her!

“So you want to kill me?” The Emperor looked at Ji Fengyan. His slightly tightened fist was already sweating, but he still kept a calm composure as a ruler.

Ji Fengyan smiled and asked, “What do you think?”

The Emperor’s eyes flashed sternly. Ji Fengyan could faintly sense something amiss, but when she was about to grab onto the Emperor, he pushed the hidden buttons on the arms of his throne hard!

The entire throne, along with the Emperor, suddenly dropped underground and a layer of tough diamond sealed the surface!

“Such a sly old fox.” Ji Fengyan looked in the direction that the Emperor had disappeared, and suddenly raised her head to look at the Eldest Princess, who was hanging in midair with bloodstains on the corner of her mouth.

“Look, your father doesn’t seem to intend on saving you.”

The Eldest Princess’s eyes were widened and by now, her eyes were filled with horror and panic.

The Emperor had escaped in time but had directly left her behind in front of Ji Fengyan.

The short old man and burly man who had been following Ji Fengyan squeezed through the space between the statues into the palace. They looked up and saw the woman who was covered in blood and “suspended” in the air. They were instantly stunned.

Wasn’t this woman the Eldest Princess who had locked Ji Fengyan in the dungeon previously?

But very soon, they kept their thoughts and said to Ji Fengyan, who was on the back of the elephant statue, “Brat, there is a huge army coming outside. The Emperor must have summoned the reinforcement troops. I can tell many highly skilled people among them. If we do not leave now, we may not have an opportunity to run away!”

The short old man and burly man did not do much while following Ji Fengyan. They were only in charge of observing the situation within the palace. When Ji Fengyan entered the palace, both of them had been guarding outside the palace with the stone statues. Just recently, they suddenly saw a huge swarm of an army rushing towards them, so they immediately reported to Ji Fengyan.

“Can’t run away?” Ji Fengyan lowered her eyes slightly and her gaze was cold.

“If I want to leave, how could anyone in the Kingdom of the Sacred Dragon stop me?”

That extremely arrogant tone made the short old man and burly man dazed.

Ji Fengyan looked up at the Eldest Princess, who had a look of despair, and suddenly an evil idea came to mind.

“Eldest Princess, don’t you love to scheme? Then this time… I shall play with you. The wager is your life.”
