Su Rongrong was so startled that she forgot her words for a while.

Qi Yuanming walked up and stood side by side with her, there was surprise and confusion in his eyes, but there was also a kind of sadness that was really so.

Su Rongrong slowly turned her head and asked Qi Yuanming in disbelief: "You already knew?"

Qi Yuanming didn't look at her, he stared at the sky-high firelight, and replied softly, "I don't know." But it's a matter of time. ”

Su Rongrong didn't know whether to believe him or not. He said that he didn't know, but he happened to take her to hide in Wantenggou at the time of the incident, but if he had known, why didn't he tell her in advance? Looking back, how did he, who had been in the deep palace and no one cared about, get the relevant news, and how did he guess the result?

She suddenly felt that the man next to her, who seemed to be a buddy next door, had a very deep and delicate mind.

Suddenly, she remembered Lord Mujun, the thieves even dared to attack the palace, so what would happen to the princess's mansion? She hurriedly grabbed Qi Yuanming's sleeve and asked, "How is the princess's mansion?" Do you know anything?"

Qi Yuanming turned his head, Su Rongrong couldn't see his expression, only heard him say in a low voice: "Yesterday afternoon, the princess's mansion was set on fire, and none of the more than 100 people in the mansion were spared. I didn't get the news until late in the evening. ”

Su Rongrong's heart was empty all of a sudden. Although she had only met Lord Mu a few times, Lord Mu was the first friend she had taken the initiative to make with her without a reason since she came to this world. But before she knew it, Lord Mu had already died.

Su Rongrong stood stunned for a while, and then looked up at the fire reflecting the red sky, and suddenly hated Jingguo very much.

Growing up in a time of peace, she used to think that war and massacres were very far away from her, and she had to sigh when she occasionally reported natural disasters in the news. But now she has left her homeland and lives in an unfamiliar country.

"Give up, Jingguo sent an immortal cultivator in the middle stage of foundation building. Qi Yuanming seemed to be able to understand her feelings, but he still shook his head and said in a low voice, "The princess's mansion was burned all over the fire in only two quarters of an hour, and the power of his spell is above yours." ”

Immortal cultivators in the middle stage of foundation building?

Su Rongrong instantly remembered the sharp-faced man beside Huang Shangshu, if he hadn't used the third-order talisman that day, several of them would not have been seriously injured and fled; if it weren't for him, Jingguo's spies would not have been so fearless, and the princess's mansion would have been slaughtered!

Wait, is it precisely because of the help of this foundation builder that Jing Guo is so eager to instigate the coup d'état of Xu State?

Su Rongrong suddenly grasped the key point of the situation.

That's right, the Confucian Monarch had also puzzled before, why the people behind the scenes were so eager to pick this opportunity to act, if it was to cooperate with this immortal cultivator, then it would make sense. Immortal cultivators usually don't stay in the mortal realm, and the sharp-faced man may be going home to visit relatives, or maybe he is just passing by, so Jing Guo promised him to cultivate immortals and ask him for help during this time.

This also explains why Jingguo chose the third major general of Zhenguo to operate. You must know that although the three of them are anti-rebellion heroes, they are only young people with zero political foundation; most of the ordinary coups are aimed at Wenchen, and only immortal cultivators will feel the threat of fellow immortal cultivators.

Su Rongrong felt that the blood was boiling all over her body, this is the immortal cultivator of the mortal realm?

Using their own magic advantages, they can quietly change the political situation and kill people at will? Because mortals are just ants in their eyes, they have no apology for slaughtering, and they will not produce demons? If this kind of person is married, will he even be spared from lurking and slaughter the city directly?

She was suddenly glad that Xia Zhou's aura was not evenly distributed, and this world still left a trace of room for mortals to survive, and immortal cultivators could never become the protagonists of mortal realms.

Immortals are different.

Su Rongrong understands these four words more deeply than ever before.

She clenched her fists and said firmly, word by word: "Xiao Ming, I am also an immortal cultivator, I must expel that scum - block my dignity as an immortal cultivator!"

Maybe her tone was too tough, Qi Yuanming couldn't help but look at her side face, and his eyes changed.

"Let's go, let's put out the fire and save the people first, and we have to find out the current situation and movements of the various forces in the palace. Su Rongrong clicked on the map panel as he spoke, and rushed out of the cold palace.

Qi Yuanming didn't move, he stood in place, and suddenly asked her loudly: "Rong Rong, are you serious?"

Su Rongrong didn't understand his attitude, but still replied without hesitation: "It's necessary! If you don't take it seriously at the moment, when can you be serious?"

Her words seemed to ignite the fire in Qi Yuanming's heart. He grinned slowly, his eyes bursting with light, and the blood all over his body boiled, this feeling was the first time since he was born. He took a small piece of jade from his neck and crushed it fiercely, and in an instant, a golden ball of light soared into the sky and disappeared into the southern sky.

"What are you doing?" asked Su Rongrong suspiciously, looking in the direction where the ball of light disappeared.

"Move the rescuers. Qi Yuanming smiled, his eyes were so clear for the first time, and he seemed to have untied the shackles of his body, "Let's go, let's do a big fight, just like when we killed the red pig." ”

"No problem!" Su Rongrong smiled back, and the two ran side by side towards the nearest firelight.

The arsonists in the palace were very cunning, and the burning courtyards were distributed in different directions in the palace, so that the servants of the whole palace ran non-stop, and there was hardly a place of peace.

Su Rongrong guessed that the arsonist had used a speed-up movement spell such as a swift talisman or a wind blast, but she had no corresponding skills and could only run on foot. Fortunately, Qi Yuanming found a horse out of nowhere, and the two of them walked on horseback, and the speed was not slow.

Arson is easy and difficult to extinguish, and the fire has been burning for a while, and it will be difficult to completely extinguish it for a while and a half. In order to save a few more places, Su Rongrong could only suppress the fire as much as possible with water dragon techniques, and once the fire decreased, it was handed over to the palace fire team to deal with the aftermath, and she went to the next fire location.

After walking a few fire spots, Qi Yuanming suddenly saw a flash of white light in the courtyard in front of him, and then a familiar figure stumbled out. Qi Yuanming's heart jumped, and he blurted out: "Father?"

King Xu pulled the thirteen-year-old fourth prince with one hand, and with the other hand, he was slashed and fell to his side, followed by a crying nurse, holding the swaddling clothes of the fifth prince in her arms.

King Xu was also surprised when he saw the person on horseback, and shouted, "Ming'er, why are you here?"

Qi Yuanming heard him call himself, and a trace of warmth slipped through his heart unexpectedly, it turned out that his father, who rarely visited him, still remembered his nickname. looked at their embarrassed appearance again, and was just about to ask, when he saw two people walking slowly behind King Xu.

When they saw the person clearly, Qi Yuanming and Su Rongrong were shocked, it was the white-clothed man and the sharp-faced man of Jingguo.

The white-clothed boy had a hideous smile on his face, approached step by step, and sneered: "Yo, isn't this the famous Miss Su of the Zhenguo Mansion?

The sharp-faced man didn't say a word, but his eyes were fixed on Su Rongrong. He couldn't forget the shame of being escaped by them last time, he didn't hesitate to use his whole body's spiritual power to urge the third-order talisman, but he was stopped by a low-level monk of hers, and he didn't even catch any of the four people, it was a great shame!

I don't know what kind of spell this little girl used, and she was able to cross the two levels to carry the damage of the fire group arrows? Thinking of this, the sharp-faced man looked at Su Rongrong's gaze more and more unkindly, and he wanted to catch her immediately and interrogate her.

King Xu was the first to react, he hugged the fourth prince on horseback, snatched the swaddling clothes of the fifth prince from the nurse's hand and stuffed it into Qi Yuanming's arms, and shouted: "You guys run, go to the direction of the front court, and it will be safe after meeting with the people brought by the prince of Zhenguo!"

Qi Yuanming's face changed, and he hurriedly said, "Then what should you do, father?"

King Xu turned his back to Qi Yuanming, stopped in front of the white-clothed man and the sharp-faced man, and smiled sadly: "The widow is your father, and it is only right to protect you." It's a pity that he was kept in the dark by the Huang family's slut before, and almost lost the country, and now even his son is about to be killed, how can the widow be greedy for life and afraid of death!"

The man in white seemed to think it was very interesting, and he smiled and slowly approached: "King Xu's words are wrong, who is under the jurisdiction of the land is just a change of surname." What's more, we have promised the Huang family that after the matter is completed, she will be a marquis, as long as you hand over these little princes, we can still give you some breath. ”

King Xu sneered and said, "Take a breath, I'm afraid there is only one breath left! Ming'er, you go quickly and protect your brother!"

Qi Yuanming has little contact with people on weekdays, and for the first time he faced the situation that he had to give up his relatives, he grabbed the reins of the horse for a while.

Su Rongrong could see clearly that it was the limit for this horse to take away three people, after all, the other party was an immortal cultivator who knew magic, and he couldn't escape if he didn't gallop with all his might. Although she has the heart to fight the sharp-faced man, protecting the little prince is the right thing for now, and she must guard them to prevent the pointy-faced man from sneaking up, and not impulsively respond to the battle.

The sharp-faced man was not as patient as them, and immediately formed a handprint and prepared to cast a spell to attack. Unexpectedly, the nurse gritted her teeth, and strode up to push him hard, and the sharp-faced man was caught off guard and took two steps back. The boy in white lowered his face and drew his sword to slash at her, but she would not let go.

Taking advantage of this moment, King Xu saw that his son was still hesitating, but Su Rongrong's eyes were clear, so he smiled at her with a deep and apologetic smile: "Miss Su, the marriage contract is a widow who can't stand you, but the dog is not talented, I hope you will take care of it more!"

So saying, he slapped the horse on the buttocks, and the horse, frightened, spread its hooves and rushed forward.

Qi Yuanming was shocked, but he couldn't stop the horse's castration, so he could only shout eagerly and desperately: "Father, Father, you can't die!" However, when he turned around, he saw King Xu draw out his saber and slash at the two, and after being stabbed through the chest and lungs by the sharp-faced man with a spell, he insisted on being a shield to stop their pursuit.

Qi Yuanming's whole heart was cold, although that person hadn't paid much attention to him since he was a child, but he at least remembered his nickname, he was his flesh-and-blood father! Looking at the bloody corpse of King Xu, something in his heart crackled and shattered.

Su Rongrong didn't expect the situation to develop so quickly, and she was inexplicably orphaned, seeing that Qi Yuanming's soul was not guarding, she had to use the winding technique, firmly tied several people on the horse's back, and rushed to the front with the galloping horse.
