"Your Highness!" The secret guards around rushed out one after another, but they were all shaken by the remaining power of the Purple Rank and flew everywhere, vomiting blood and falling to the ground.

Just when his power was about to destroy Youyue Tower, the man thought of the people who were still in the building, and suddenly withdrew his strength.

Bright red blood instantly flowed out of his mouth and nose. When he regained consciousness and emerged from the lake, the two figures, one in blue and one in white, were nowhere to be found.

Thinking of the shock wave just now, Wei Jie's face turned pale. He jumped out of the lake with great effort and ran towards the room where Ling Yuan was. However, because he exerted too much force, his center of gravity was unstable, and his internal injuries were too severe, he actually fainted.

Before he fainted, he called out the name he had always missed, "Yuan'er..."

"Brother, this guy seems to be a lovesick person too. He seems to be quite nice to our Yuan'er?"

"People are like that? Still good?"

The two brothers, who had not yet walked far, wanted to take another look at Ling Yuan, but they did not expect to witness this scene and were speechless for a moment.

"Let's go. I won't watch it anymore. In the final analysis, this girl is just too stupid and doesn't know how to cherish her life!"

The man in green looked at Youyue Tower with disappointment and left angrily.

The man in white took a deep look at the unconscious Wei Jie and said, "Whether you can protect her till the end depends on your luck this year!"

After the two brothers left, Youyue Lake fell into complete silence.

At that time, outside the Phoenix Palace, due to the arrival of new zombies, everyone fought until dark before finally ending the battle.

Ignoring the obstruction of Qing Ye and his three companions, as well as that of a group of Black Scale Guards, Ling Wuya and his son, the four young masters of Fengchi, and even Diao Yi, broke through the encirclement and entered Youyue Tower.

When they smelled the obvious bloody odor coming from Youyue Tower, everyone's heart tightened. Fearing that something unexpected might have happened, everyone ignored their own positions and ran towards the scene.

When they saw Wei Jie and his Black Scale Guards fainted on the ground, these people subconsciously ran into the building.

Only after they saw Ling Yuan lying silently on the bed did they subconsciously breathe a sigh of relief.

However, before they could completely relax, everyone's eyes widened at the cold touch of Ling Yuan's tentacles.

"Yuan'er, is she really like that?" Ling Yi's face turned pale, and his body trembled uncontrollably.

After Ling Wuya conducted a thorough examination, his face looked so gloomy that water could drip out of it.

There was no breathing, the body was cold, and he really looked like he was dead.

But, so much time has passed, why hasn't her body shown signs of rigor mortis yet?

This is not right.

Even if this child has black blood in his body, he can't do this. What went wrong?

Ling Wuya could never have expected that there was a divine needle in Ling Yuan's body. It was because of this that she was able to protect herself by falling into a state of suspended animation when she absorbed too much toxin and her body could not bear it.

While in the state of suspended animation, without the pill in the hands of the young man in white, one could easily fall into real death if he was not careful.

Only by giving her strengthening medicine can she completely enter a stage of self-isolation, self-healing and self-recovery.

Of course, no one else would understand her physical condition except her relatives who arranged all this for her.

The condition that Ling Yuan was in was difficult to understand even for Ling Wuya, one of the best figures in the medical field.

Because they only know one side of the story and not the other.

Ling Wuya's expression was so profound and unfathomable that the four young masters of Fengchi and Diao Yi could no longer hold back and stepped forward to check.

But the result shocked and frightened them all.

"What is this," dead or alive?

Unfortunately, no one explained this to them.

Especially now, even Wei Jie’s situation is not very optimistic.

"He was severely injured by at least a purple-rank master. Even if he recovers, it will take at least two or three months."

Ling Wuya's words made Diao Yi, the four young masters of Fengchi and the others raise their eyes in astonishment: "Purple-rank master? How could a purple-rank master appear here?"

"From what I have seen, it is undoubtedly a purple-rank expert. Just look at the direction where these secret guards fell to the ground, which is enough to show how terrifying the power was at that time. What makes me curious is, under such strong pressure, how could Youyue Tower be preserved so intact?"

The fact that Wei Jie was severely injured and these Black Scale Guards died on the spot was enough to show that a fierce battle had just taken place here.

But despite such a fierce battle, Youyue Tower was able to remain in the best condition. Why is that?

Diao Yi narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Ling Wuya: "Master Ling, are you guessing that the purpose of these people coming here is Princess Feng?"

Ling Wuya did not deny it, "Based on the situation at the scene, it is possible."

Was he able to stop in time to protect Ling Yuan in Youyue Tower?

Ling Wuya thought of Ling Yuan's confusing life experience, and suddenly turned around and said to Ling Yi: "Let's go back first."

"Dad, Yuan'er..."

"Go back first. We'll talk about anything later."

Lingjiazhuang did know some inside information, and even Diao Yi was well aware of the hidden story behind it. Therefore, after Ling Wuya forcibly dragged Ling Yi away, Diao Yi also disappeared quietly.

In the end, the only one left was the fourth young master of Fengchi, who knew nothing about Ling Yuan's life experience.

"Brother, I feel like something is wrong. Yuan'er is Ling Wuya's adopted daughter. Why did he just leave like this?"

"Also, when did Ling Yuan get involved with Diao Yi? What surprised me the most was this man's identity. Not only does he have a certain status in the Never-Sleeping City, but even the people in the Purple Phoenix Palace call him Lord. What on earth is going on?"

From his initial undisguised concern for Ling Yuan to his current departure after checking the situation, all of this seemed to illustrate one problem.

The next moment, the four brothers looked at Ling Yuan, who was lying dead there, in tacit understanding.

"Perhaps Yuan'er's situation is not as bad as we see?"

"But brother, how do you explain the fact that Yuan'er is not breathing and her body is cold?"

From childhood to adulthood, many strange things have happened to Ling Yuan, but this is the first time they have seen a situation like this, especially when the person is not breathing. If a person has stopped breathing, can he still be considered alive?

"Let's go to Lingjiazhuang." If we want to figure this out, perhaps we have to start from Lingjiazhuang.

"But, will they tell us?"

"How do you know if you don't try?"

The fourth young master of Fengchi took one last look at Ling Yuan lying on the bed, and finally left reluctantly.

Poor Wei Jie, who climbed ashore alone, was finally dragged into the room by Qing Ye and his companions who arrived late, and taken to see a doctor.

Inside the capital, with the retreat of Zihuang Palace, Lingjia Manor, and Fengchi Villa, only the support of the royal families of various countries remained.

The residual power of the zombie poison is still there. Although more than ten days have passed and nearly 30,000 people have died, these monsters will not be quiet and the city gate will not be opened until they are killed.

Once a monster gets out, no one can afford the long-lasting consequences.

Therefore, even if Siyou Country is now in danger of national extinction, these countries cannot take advantage of the situation and strangle it.

Once an internal conflict breaks out, it will play into the hands of someone with ulterior motives.

So when Wei Yuchen was missing and Wei Jie was seriously injured, the Second Prince and other royal family members including Wei Ziheng, Wei Ye, and Wei Li, made a concerted effort and joined forces with the remaining forces of the other three countries to strangle the remaining zombies in the cradle.

According to this, fifteen days have passed since August 15th, and we have officially entered September.

After five more days of strict control and confirmation that no zombies had reappeared, the city gates that had been closed for twenty days were finally opened.

But what awaited everyone was a bleak capital city. Even after twenty days, the suffocating smell of corruption was still brewing here.

As soon as the city gates were opened, no one went into the capital. Instead, those common people and officials who had managed to survive fled with their families.

The huge capital city has almost become a deserted city except for those who have to stay.

After accomplishing their mission, the reinforcements from other countries also left early and returned to their own countries. In response to the heavy damage inflicted on Siyou Country, they made targeted plans and strengthened their countries' defenses.

In this disaster, nearly 60% of Siyou State officials were lost, and the defense reserve forces in the capital were almost completely depleted, leaving only 20% left. Fortunately, Wei Ziheng immediately deployed personnel from the Northwest Camp to reinforce the security of the capital.

The imperial city, which could accommodate 100,000 people, now has less than 10,000 people left.

This number can be said to be the lowest in the history of Siyou Kingdom.
