Just as Dugu Yingcheng's thoughts were still lingering, the earth-shaking explosion sounded again. Looking in the direction of the sound, a spark exploded in the enemy's camp. The sky was filled with sword lights and flowing fire, broken walls and ruins, and wherever the fire went, there was a mess of blood and flesh, and the charred bones of the dead were scattered all over the ground. The blood and killing swept the entire enemy camp in an instant.
"Ah, help!"
"ah!"
There were wailings everywhere, and shrill cries for help were heard everywhere. In less than a minute, the enemy camp, which had been in good order and winning step by step, had turned into a ruin. The sky was full of flames, and countless people were killed and injured. The situation was horrible.
At this moment, Emperor Shitian and his group were shocked, not knowing what had happened. The situation suddenly reversed, so fast that they had no time to digest it.
"Your Majesty, I am late in coming to your rescue. Please forgive me!" Suddenly, a feminine voice sounded. Then, Bai Tian, dressed in a black nightgown, knelt at the feet of Emperor Shi Tian. With him came half of the troops he had left in the Imperial Palace.
After he left the palace, he rushed to the king without stopping, but he learned that the king was trapped on the edge of a cliff. As soon as he came, he saw rocks rushing towards the king and his party. In a hurry, he could only use the grenade given to him by the queen.
Sure enough, the effect was obvious. The power was much greater than when the queen taught him to use it, and it successfully stopped the rolling stones.
"Bai Tian?" As soon as Dugu Yingcheng saw Bai Tian, a flash of understanding flashed across his eyes. He quickly stepped forward, grabbed Bai Tian and asked, "Bai Tian, was the strange fire just now caused by you?"
"Yes, that is..." Bai Tian nodded happily and was about to explain when suddenly a murderous aura burst out and pressed down from the top of his head, and the space instantly condensed.
"Why are you here!" Emperor Shitian frowned and looked at him coldly, his voice was cold and serious, full of obvious anger. As early as the moment he heard this familiar voice during the day, Emperor Shitian's face changed drastically.
As Emperor Shitian finished speaking, Dugu Yingcheng also reacted. Yes, why is he here during the day? Shouldn't he stay in the Imperial Palace to protect the little princess? Could it be that the little princess is chasing after him...
Dugu Yingcheng immediately raised his head and looked behind Bai Tian. Apart from those burly shadow guards and armored soldiers, he did not see anyone else. In other words, the little princess did not come! However, this answer obviously did not make him feel relieved, but made him even more worried.
Although he was grateful for coming to save them from danger during the day, he was afraid that it would be difficult to explain to the king.
Because in the king's heart, the little princess's life is much more precious than his own. If he had to choose, he would rather be hit by a rock and fall off a cliff than put the little princess in danger!
"Your Majesty, it was the little princess who asked me to come here."
"What?"
"What did you say!"
The voices of Di Shitian and Dugu Yingcheng sounded at the same time, clearly showing disbelief. It was not that they were making a fuss, but they had clearly given the little princess a strong drug before they left. It would be impossible for the little princess to wake up in just two days.
I looked up at the sky. How long has it been? The little princess has already woken up? It's incredible...
The fact that the little princess suddenly woke up was actually very puzzling to him during the day. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would have found it hard to believe that a person who had been drugged could wake up in such a short time. However, the little princess woke up, and that was a fact.
"Yes, Your Majesty. The little princess slept all afternoon. When it was just getting dark, Jun Liufeng suddenly arrived at the imperial palace, saying that he had received news that Your Majesty was unconscious, and went to assassinate him. Just when I was restrained by Jun Liufeng, the little princess woke up. It was the little princess who saved my life and the lives of the shadow guards, and she also made a grenade and gave it to me, ordering me to protect Your Majesty." Bai Tian gave a brief account of what had happened, and then presented a grenade to Di Shitian for inspection.
"Your Majesty, please look. This is the grenade made by the little princess herself. It is also the reason why the big rock exploded just now."
As soon as he heard the words "the reason why the big rock exploded", Dugu Yingcheng's eyes lit up and he immediately took it over. He held the black thing in his hand and observed it carefully.
He had seen the power of the grenade just now. Who would have thought that such a big explosion was caused by such a small thing? This was simply unbelievable!
Although the grenade was indeed the focus of everyone's attention, Emperor Shitian was not among them. At this moment, he didn't care about the grenade or the explosion. He just wanted to know how his little thing was.
"You said that Jun Liufeng went to the Imperial Palace?" His tone was still cold, but the coldness in his eyes had intensified.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Bai Tian did not dare to look up and answered Di Shitian's question as quickly as possible. In fact, the moment he decided to protect the king, he knew in his heart that he would face such a scene. However, he did not regret it.
"Was it the little princess who saved you?" His tone became even colder.
Bai Tian felt very stressed and answered hesitantly, "Yes... yes." For some reason, Bai Tian suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart. He felt that he was so busy protecting the king that he seemed to have overlooked some serious problem.
"Then, the little princess made a grenade and asked you to bring it to me?" At this point, Emperor Shitian changed the subject and asked very "gently": "So, who is with the little princess now?"
Boom boom boom! My brain seemed to be bombarded by countless grenades at the same time, and I felt dizzy!
Now Bai Tian finally realized what he had overlooked... that is... there was a Jun Liufeng beside the little princess!
"In reply to your Majesty, yes... yes..."
"What is it?"
He really wanted to answer that it was Jun Liufeng, but the question was, did he dare to say this answer? It was estimated that as soon as he said this, the king would slap him to the gate of hell with one palm, and the ghost messenger would not have to come to collect souls!
"When I left, the little princess was the only one in the palace." God can prove that what he said was absolutely true. When he left, Jun Liufeng was sent by the little princess to buy osmanthus cake. Therefore, at that time, the little princess was the only one in the imperial palace, and he did not lie.
"Really? Then what about Jun Liufeng?" Emperor Shitian gritted his teeth when he said the three words "Jun Liufeng". He still remembered the obsessed look in the little thing's eyes when he saw Jun Liufeng last time. And outside the sea of clouds forest, Jun Liufeng jumped into the crack without hesitation. If he said that he had no intentions towards the little thing, even a ghost would not believe it!
Damn it!
"In reply to the king, Jun Liufeng... he... he... he went out to buy sweet-scented osmanthus cake for the little princess..." In the end, he said, let him die. Facing the overwhelming pressure from the king, he really couldn't lie. (To be continued)
