"Sir!" No one expected this result. Seeing Wu Ziyue lying on the ground seriously injured, all the black-armored soldiers were horrified. They wanted to step forward, but when they saw Mu Hanyan's Hanxiao Sword directly hitting Wu Ziyue's heart meridian, they stopped abruptly.

"You, what are you going to do?" With Mu Hanyan's sword pointing at his heart, Wu Ziyue no longer had any of his previous arrogance and was shaking with fear all over.

"Don't worry, I won't kill you, but I'm sorry to trouble you to go to the capital with me." Mu Hanyan said with a smile.

Mu Hanyan actually wanted to kill this scum as soon as possible, but she knew that this person could not be killed, otherwise there would be no way to end today's matter.

No matter how despicable and shameless Wu Ziyue was, he was still the only son of King Bingjian and the lord of Dingbian City. If he was killed, not to mention those Jiahei personal soldiers, even the old lord who was on his side would have to fight him to the death.

The best option was to take him hostage and safely reach the capital. She believed in the wisdom of the Emperor of Shangyue, who wouldn't believe Wu Ziyue's nonsense. Only by proving Wu Ziyue's failure to defend the city could she save the old general, Patriarch Geng, and the others. She had thought this through clearly before she took action.

Wu Ziyue's face turned pale. He knew that his lies might fool others, but how could he fool the emperor and those cunning officials in the capital? Once he went to the capital, he would be completely finished.

"Boom!" A heavy sound of hooves came from the distance.

Could it be that the strange beast has returned again? Everyone was shocked, but soon all the worries disappeared.

In a moment, a golden cloud rolled in, stirring up clouds of dust along the way. As it got closer, it became clear that it was a group of cavalrymen in heavy golden armor, with a golden dragon flag fluttering in the wind.

"The Imperial Guards, it's the Imperial Guards!" someone in the crowd exclaimed.

The Imperial Guards are the troops guarding the imperial palace, and are equivalent to the emperor's personal soldiers. They never leave the capital, but today they came to Dingbian City. What's going on?

In the blink of an eye, the team of imperial guards appeared in front of them. A young general, also wearing golden armor and a golden mask, stood out from the crowd and came to Mu Hanyan riding an extremely majestic red charcoal cloud beast.

When Mu Hanyan saw this young general, her expression became a little strange. The general in front of her with a golden mask gave her a sense of déjà vu.

"What's going on?" The young general had already noticed that the situation on the field was a bit strange. When he saw Mu Hanyan pointing her sword at Wu Ziyue's heart, he frowned and asked.

"Reporting to my lord, I am Wu Ziyue, the lord of Dingbian City. This man calls himself the envoy of Anyun, but he harbors evil intentions. He secretly colluded with strange beasts to invade the capital and destroy the foundation of Shangyue. After I saw through his plan, he sent strange beasts to attack the city. Now he wants to kill me to silence me!" Wu Ziyue said impatiently.

If it were in the past, he would not be so polite even if the other party was the imperial guard, but the situation is different now. He knows that his last hope lies in this young general. As long as the other party believes his words, or hears his name, and takes into account the power of the King of Side by Side and comes to his aid, Mu Hanyan will surely be killed without a burial place.

Although he was defeated by Mu Hanyan's sword and seriously injured, he came to his senses later and realized that Mu Hanyan's strength had not recovered, but it was only because of his lack of practical experience that she succeeded easily.

When facing the Imperial Guards, who are known as the emperor's personal soldiers, not to mention Mu Hanyan, whose strength has not yet recovered, even Mu Hanyan in her prime is no match. They are the elite among the elite, and each of them is a talented elite swordsman.

"Oh, really?" the young general said lightly, slowly taking off his mask.

Yue Fanchen! It was indeed him! Mu Hanyan’s heart sank.

"Mu Hanyan, you didn't expect that we would meet again so soon. I still remember the power of your sword last time. I wonder if we will have the chance to fight this time." Yue Fanchen said with a smile.

Hearing Yue Fanchen's words, the expressions of everyone around changed, while Wu Ziyue's face showed ecstasy.

Because Yue Fanchen left Shangyue very early to learn from a master, and was then sent to the Imperial City Guard for training, he had never seen him in person, but he had heard of his name a long time ago. He also knew that he had gone to Anyun to participate in the freshman competition of Longyan College not long ago, and was later said to have returned empty-handed.

It seemed that he was most likely defeated by Mu Hanyan, and the two of them had a great grudge. How could he miss this opportunity for revenge?

Hearing Yue Fanchen's words, Hua Yue and the others' hearts sank suddenly. They looked at each other, gathered their strength, and prepared to take action.

"However, let's talk about those things later and deal with business first." Yue Fanchen's smile suddenly disappeared and his expression became unusually serious.

"I am Yue Fanchen, the commander of the Anyun Kingdom's imperial guards. I am here to respectfully welcome Her Royal Highness the Princess back to the capital!" Yue Fanchen bowed and said to Mu Hanyan.

"What! What princess?" Everyone was stunned. Mu Hanyan was the princess of Shangyue? Wasn't she an envoy from Anyun? She was actually the princess of Shangyue?

Even Mu Hanyan herself was stunned.

"I am Yue Fanchen, the commander of the Anyun Kingdom's imperial guards. I am here to respectfully welcome Her Royal Highness the Princess back to the capital!" Yue Fanchen said solemnly again, with a faint smile on his lips.

"You, are you talking to me?" Mu Hanyan looked around. There were people of all ages around her, but she was the only woman. The eldest princess must be someone else.

"Your Highness the Princess, please follow me back to the palace to meet the Emperor." Yue Fanchen finally laughed. It was quite amusing to see Mu Hanyan standing there in such a daze.

"You, what did you just say?" Wu Ziyue was completely dumbfounded, staring blankly at Yue Fanchen. Mu Hanyan was the eldest princess? Was this true?

"By the way, I almost forgot about you. You actually said that Her Royal Highness the Princess shook the foundation of the royal family. It's unreasonable to be so hard on your own family. It's incomprehensible. Forget it, let's take him back with you." Yue Fanchen muttered, and with a wave of his hand, several guards came forward and carried Wu Ziyue.

Those black-armored soldiers looked at each other, but no one dared to stop them.

Although they are known as the elite among the elite, they cannot compare with the imperial guards in front of them in terms of status or strength. More importantly, Yue Fanchen is following the orders of His Majesty, so how dare they take action?

"Stop, stop, I am the prince of Bingxiang, let me go!" Wu Ziyue yelled in fear.

Yue Fanchen waved his hand, and his guards slapped Wu Ziyue unconscious.
