Quick Travel to the Clouds

Chapter 520 The Princess Who Wants to Compilation 17

Lan Guijun's eyes flickered slightly, and she immediately raised her voice imperceptibly. Her face once again wore that expression of pampered arrogance. She spoke in a reproachful yet affectionate tone, "You, if you act like this again next time, and bring those flashy things to the enclosure to show off, and your mother gets upset, I wonder if your father will help you cover it up!"

At the same time, he quickly pulled out a brocade box from under the table and pushed it towards her. "Here, this is the 'Jinsha' (Golden Sand in the Blue Sea) that was just delivered as tribute from the South China Sea a few days ago. I heard it's made from a special kind of seashell. Take it and enjoy it. And be more restrained and don't upset your sisters."

Yun Chu immediately understood what he meant, and that carefree smile appeared on his face again. He picked up the brocade box, weighed it, and his voice became frivolous: "Thank you, father! This thing is rare, and the people in my house will definitely like it when they see it."

She then said coquettishly, "Aren't you here with the Queen Mother? They're just a few handsome men. Why would my sisters care about that? They're so petty!"

The movement outside the tent seemed to disappear.

When Yun Chu left Lan Guijun's tent with the brocade box, the night was getting darker.

Yun Chu turned back into the dissolute Sixth Princess.

But no one noticed that the priceless box of "Blue Sea and Golden Sand", which was enough to prove her "debauchery", was tightly held in her sleeves, with her palm pressed against the slightly cool lid of the box, absorbing the warmth passed on by her father and concubine in that brief moment just now.

Before her father left, Lan Guijun turned her back to the door, looked at the flickering lights, and murmured inaudibly, "The light is on, and someone will always see it."

——Linging in her heart, it became the only real warmth that supported her to continue to perform this ridiculous drama in this cold night.

She knew that in the center of this vortex of cold power, there was a light that was lit for her.

This is the strength that enables her to move forward with heavy burdens.

The next day, the hunt continued.

Yun Chu was the last to set off, wandering around with Bai Mo and the other three.

Seeing the prey, Yun Chu just gave a look and the guards took action to help hunt it.

A sharp whistle, like the cry of a vulture, suddenly broke the tranquility of the evening!

"kill!"

"Seize the food! Seize the men!"

Fierce shouts of killing suddenly erupted from the dense forests surrounding the camp!

Dozens or even hundreds of masked men in black, like bloodthirsty hyenas, brandished crude but deadly knives, guns, sticks and clubs, and rushed frantically towards the slightly relaxed camp, which was immersed in the fatigue of the day's hunting!

"Enemy attack! Protect His Highness!"

The guards' roars exploded instantly, and the sharp sounds of swords being unsheathed merged into one, mixed with the terrified screams of the ladies and gentlemen, and the entire camp fell into hellish chaos!

Chaos is the best cover.

Just when everyone's attention was attracted by the violent bandits, something more deadly was quietly crawling.

"Ah! Snake!" A shrill scream echoed from a humble guard tent near the main tent of the Second Princess, Huang Yunli. As a guard drew back the curtain, a venomous snake, as slender as a dead branch and its color almost blending with the dead leaves, darted out like lightning and accurately bit his calf!

He fell to the ground in horror, twitching, foam coming out of his mouth and nose, and almost instantly lost the ability to move.

This is just the beginning.

A few tents away, a low-ranking official in charge of checking the prey suffered the same fate and fell dead to the ground.

These poisonous snakes seem to have eyes and specifically target areas with weak defenses.

"Swoosh!" A cold arrow shot out from somewhere in the shadows of the forest, passed by the neck of a trusted guard of the eldest princess Huang Yunjin, and was nailed to the wooden stake behind him. The tail of the arrow was still trembling!

The guard was frightened and broke out in a cold sweat. Looking back, he saw a melee between the bandits and the guards, and could not find the person who shot the arrow.

"Swoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!" Several streaks of arrows seemed to have eyes, shooting towards several noble children of high status. Some narrowly missed the target and got nailed on the tent, while others directly smashed the exquisite jade hairpin on someone's head into pieces, causing even greater chaos.

Fear spread among the crowd like a plague - there were too many "accidents"!

In this carefully woven killing game, a more hidden target is pointing at the second princess Huang Yunli.

Her trusted secret guards naturally protected her, and no one could get in.

But Huang Yunli had a habit. Her favorite was a young servant from another race, Aigis, who was brought from the Southern Territory and was said to have special tracking abilities.

Aigis has an exquisite appearance and a naive and warm personality, which is in sharp contrast to Huang Yunli's cold temperament. He is the only person she shows a little warmth to in front of others.

Rumor has it that someone once tried to assassinate Agis, but was tortured by Huang Yunli for three days and three nights before dying in agony.

In the chaos, protecting Huang Yunli under the tight protection of the secret guards was naturally extremely difficult. But those cold arrows and venomous snakes, their true fangs, were more secretly pointed at the periphery!

"Boom!" At the edge of the camp, a temporary shack for storing hay suddenly caught fire, and flames and thick smoke rose into the sky!

"Aigis loves playing with those hounds the most. I'm afraid he went over there!" Someone shouted in the chaos, his voice full of fear.

Almost at the same time, near the area responsible for taking care of the hounds, several masked figures flashed out like ghosts, with a clear goal, as if they were going to attack there... but their actions were more like expulsion and creating panic.

The leader of the Second Princess's secret guards shouted, "Group One, stay here to protect His Highness! Group Two, follow me to see Aigis! Go quickly!" He couldn't take the risk of letting anything happen to the person His Highness cherished.

Just as the secret guards sent out a part of their elite troops to drive away the bandits and search for Aigis, another real killing move was launched!

At the edge of the dense forest near the hound fence where Aigis might appear, several hungry black bears that had been lurking for a long time, stimulated by the smell of blood, and several hungry wolves with green eyes suddenly pounced out as if they had received an order!

Their target is those who are driven to flee in all directions!

One of the figures, wearing the colorful Southern Region clothing, was none other than Aigis, who was panicked and had just been driven out of the darkness by the chaos!

He was too naive and panicked, and had no time to call for help!

"Aigis—!" Huang Yunli's roar was filled with heart-wrenching pain. She had witnessed with her own eyes Aigis being violently pounced upon by a gigantic black bear!

That scene made even this princess, who was known for her coldness, tear her eyes apart instantly!

The guards around Huang Yunli were unable to be distracted at the moment. The remaining secret guards were trying their best to stop the bandits from attacking the camp and to resist the continuous cold arrows!

Huang Yunli was about to rush forward regardless of everything——

at this time!

Another sharp sound of a whistling arrow piercing the air! This time, it was no longer a stray arrow, but a precise shot straight into the eyes of the black bear that was about to bite Aigis' neck!

"puff!"

The black bear stood up in pain, let out a deafening howl, and temporarily let go of the boy under its claws.

Arrow shooter?

The distance was too great, and the crowd too chaotic, for anyone to see clearly. A slender figure flashed by at the edge of the chaotic crowd, seemingly an ordinary hunter.

But this brief delay gave Agis a glimmer of hope. He struggled to his feet, his clothes stained red with blood, and ran deep into the camp in fear, hoping to seek shelter.

However, it's too late!
