Chapter 395: Immortality is Boring

The prince saw that he could not argue and was afraid that he could not escape this disaster, so he became murderous again.

He suddenly turned his attention and shouted, "You clearly want to protect Lu Yunjue!"

Under normal circumstances, everyone would agree with him.

But at this time, it was difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood, and everyone looked at him with extremely strange eyes.

The prince's heart felt as if it had fallen into an icy lake, and his eyes grew colder and colder, making people shudder.

He questioned, "Duke Xuanyuan, have you already been connected with Lu Yunjue? Why are you openly defending him now?"

Seeing that he was still trying to frame him, Duke Xuanyuan angrily denied it, "We'll know who's right and who's wrong once we debate. If Your Highness suspects me, we can confront him before His Majesty today!"

As he said this, he was about to leave and go to the palace to meet the emperor.

However, the prince ordered to stop it.

The prince put on a smiling face and said, "Why do you have to leave, Duke? I was just being rebellious."

At the same time, he waved his hand and uttered cruel words that had nothing to do with his expression: "Archers, release!"

The yard suddenly became chaotic.

Because they were attending a birthday banquet, no one had any weapons. Those who knew martial arts could still block a few attacks, but the civil officials were almost made into sitting ducks.

A happy birthday party suddenly turned into a living hell.

Hu Xiner's pupils constricted. She never expected that the prince would do such a thing.

The prince seemed to be thinking of taking revenge on society before his death, and he laughed wildly after giving the order to shoot the arrows.

He laughed heartily, blocking the flying arrows while rushing towards Mu Qing.

Duke Xuanyuan blocked the arrow and frowned as he asked Mu Qing, "What are your plans next?"

The two were originally enemies, but under the threat of the prince, they actually formed a strange alliance.

Mu Qing said bluntly, "Of course, we will preserve the evidence and hand the Crown Prince over to Your Majesty for disposal!"

Duke Xuanyuan was very satisfied with his statement. He also knew that the prince's behavior was wrong, but after all, he had watched the prince grow up.

If Mu Qing dared to say that he wanted to kill the prince on the spot, he would have plenty of ways to make Mu Qing die here as well.

After all, he had always disliked Mu Qing, the man who had led his daughter astray.

Taoist Master Yiqing, who was originally hiding in the dark, saw the critical situation and flew out, firmly protecting Jiang Yao and Lu's mother.

Duke Xuanyuan dispersed his guards to maintain order in the field.

Mu Qing’s most important task at the moment is to protect Hu Xiner. After all, in this situation, if he is not careful, Hu Xiner will be hurt.

Hu Xiner is pregnant at the moment and cannot afford any mistakes.

He looked around and said decisively, "I'll take you to the inner courtyard first!"

But on the way to the inner courtyard, someone fell on his sleeve. It was the panicked Liu Qingyi: "Lu Yunjue, brother-in-law, where are you going? Take me with you!"

The old lady and Liu Zhi called out anxiously, "Yi'er!"

Liu Qingyi was originally planning to run towards the prince in the chaos, but halfway through her run, she was frightened by the prince's appearance.

She wanted to go back to the main house, but was blocked by the crowd and could only run away. When she saw Mu Qing, she naturally came up to him shamelessly.

Mu Qing naturally pushed her away.

As the head of the household, the eldest daughter should have taken care of the guests, but at the critical moment, she gathered all the guards and servants to her side, without caring about other people in the courtyard at all!

Mu Qing despised such cold-blooded and heartless people.

The two of them were originally the targets of the archers. During this brief pause, an arrow flew towards Hu Xiner.

Mu Qing didn't have time to think, and grabbed the arrow shaft, but he was still scratched and his hand was immediately bleeding.

And the prince was also approaching at this time.

At this moment, he finally revealed his true face, his expression ferocious: "Lu Yunjue, you have destroyed my great kingdom, so pay with your life!"

The two men fought each other. Although Mu Qing's martial arts were better than the prince's, he was still physically weak. Moreover, he had to find time to distract himself from his busy schedule to shield Hu Xiner from the arrows, and he accidentally fell into a disadvantageous position, facing many crises.

Liu Qing became furious and rushed towards her.

At the critical moment, a folding fan flew out and hit Liu Qingyi's wrist. She screamed and fell to the ground.

Hu Xin'er was surprised and delighted: "Yin Li?!"

It was Yin Li who flew over. He picked up the folding fan on the ground and waved it casually in the air a few times, blocking most of the flying arrows.

"At the critical moment, you still have to rely on me." He smiled provocatively at Mu Qing.

Seeing the chaos in the field, Mu Qing, although very unhappy with Yin Li's behavior, still said to him: "Xin'er is in your hands!"

"No, can you help my husband drive the prince away first?" Hu Xiner saw that Mu Qing was at a disadvantage and became very anxious, so she asked Yin Li.

Yin Li snorted lightly: "As long as you are not here, he can beat anyone."

After saying that, he forcibly dragged Hu Xiner away.

"Mu Qing!" Seeing Mu Qing caught in the melee, Hu Xiner gritted her teeth and ran back.

Although it was very unkind, she bet that Yin Li would not give up on her just like that.

Yin Li murmured helplessly: "You little bitch, you only know how to play tricks! Don't even think about making me work for your husband."

He struck Hu Xiner on the back of the neck, and the latter immediately fell down limply.

Mu Qing caught a glimpse of the scene from the corner of his eye and gritted his teeth, "Yin Li!"

Yin Li picked up the unconscious Hu Xin'er and walked away with a smile: "Thank you for entrusting me with your daughter-in-law. I gladly accept you!"

Mu Qing's face darkened, and he suddenly realized that entrusting Xin'er to Yin Li's protection might not be the right decision.

"Haha!" The prince was about to laugh at him when he was punched in the face.

We will not discuss for now how Mu Qing, provoked by his love rival, became so powerful that he beat the prince.

Yin Li held Hu Xiner in his arms and went straight to the basement.

Inside the cell, the familiar candlelight still filled the room. Compared with the bloody chaos outside, there was even a sense of beauty of tranquility here.

Liu Se is drinking tea.

She was not surprised to see the two people come in. Instead, she greeted Yin Li as if they were old acquaintances: "Hey, you're here again?"

Yin Li ignored her and gently placed Hu Xin'er on the bed. He felt her pulse and was completely relieved after confirming that she was fine.

Liu Se sneered, "Look at you, you really are a romantic. But as a demon, falling in love with someone will only lead to your death."

Yin Li knew that his identity had been discovered, and replied calmly: "Hundreds of years of immortality is boring, and being able to enter the cycle of reincarnation is not bad."

Liu Se was stunned: "You are so cool, it's really weird."
