"No wonder there have been so many changes in the capital lately, it turns out it was all your doing!" Bi Linglong gritted her teeth, her heart filled with rage.
"Actually, all of this was what your father wanted to do, but he didn't have the ability. We helped him achieve it and got some reward from him." Bi Qi's expression was strange, as if it was only natural to use other people's lives as payment.
Bi Linglong was both shocked and furious, but the most important thing was to get through the immediate crisis: "How did you manage to act so convincingly? Did you use the Heart-Eating Demon Spider?"
She had heard Zu'an mention this kind of demon before, and that back then, a large-scale investigation was conducted in the capital to find out who had been infected.
"Heart-Eating Spider? How could we be such low-level monsters?" Bi Qi sneered, somewhat impatiently.
"Stop wasting your breath on her, let me have a good time." Zhao Ruizhi smiled and rubbed his hands together as he approached her. He thoroughly enjoyed seeing his prey panic. The more frightened and panicked she was, the more excited he became.
Looking at his fat face, which was now extremely ferocious and lewd, Bi Linglong felt nauseous.
Bi Qi frowned and said, "Hurry up, lest things get complicated."
"Don't worry, I'm always fast." Zhao Ruizhi chased after the panicked Bi Linglong. "Don't fret. Once you become mine, you'll realize how lowly your previous life was and how lucky you were to have met me."
"Die!" Bi Linglong shouted, and suddenly a short sword emerged from her sleeve and stabbed at her opponent.
Her sword strike was incredibly fast and skillful, but unfortunately, it was meaningless in the face of such an absolute power difference.
Zhao Ruizhi casually patted the sword, and Bi Linglong felt a tremendous force transmitted to her hand, making it impossible for her to hold on any longer, and the short sword flew out.
Without the slightest hesitation, she quickly removed the gold hairpin from her hair.
She wore this for a long time, not just because it was pretty, but because it was a magic weapon.
As soon as the golden hairpin flew out, it grew larger and shot towards Zhao Ruizhi like a flying sword.
Zhao Ruizhi opened his mouth and swallowed the flying sword whole, making chewing sounds as he said, "Mmm, it has a fragrant aroma, so delicious."
Bi Linglong was terrified. She knew that the power of a magic weapon used by the Empress for self-defense must be extraordinary. Even a Grandmaster could be injured if he lost focus for a moment.
And this guy just ate it in one bite?
While she was still in a daze, Zhao Ruizhi moved closer to her and hugged her tightly, saying, "My beauty, come here."
However, just as his hand touched the hem of her clothes, a golden light suddenly emanated from the flower ornament between Bi Linglong's eyebrows, shaking his hand away.
Zhao Ruizhi staggered back several feet before regaining his footing, his blood and qi churning.
"Huh?" Not only Zhao Ruizhi, but even Bi Qi standing to the side was somewhat surprised. "This power..."
Bi Linglong bit her lip. Back then, because she was the Crown Princess, Zhao Hao gave her some protective measures, which were hidden in the flower ornament on her forehead.
However, she had already used it in the secret realm before. Later, Zuan thought it was a good idea and left a wisp of power in the flower ornament to protect her. At that time, she even joked that she was the empress and that there were many palace guards, so how could she encounter any danger?
Unexpectedly, it actually came in handy today. It's just a pity that this is only a one-time use item, and Zaun didn't expect to encounter such a terrifying enemy.
She didn't waste the opportunity and crushed a bead. Suddenly, streaks of blue light appeared on the floor of the entire palace. These streaks of light combined to form a transparent shield, trapping Zhao Ruizhi and Bi Qi inside.
She rushed towards the door, knowing full well that with so many palace guards outside, alerting them would give her a chance to survive.
Although many of them were the emperor's guards, they were still human. If they knew that the emperor had been replaced by demons, they would definitely fight against the demons.
However, when she touched the window, the expected crash did not occur; instead, a strange force bounced her back.
At this moment, a round of applause rang out from the side. Bi Qi clapped his hands and said, "I have always heard that the Empress is clever and resourceful. Seeing her today, I can see that she is indeed extraordinary. If I hadn't set up a barrier in advance, you little girl would have actually run away right under our noses."
While he was speaking, he and Zhao Ruizhi had already destroyed the surrounding formations.
This formation is quite good, but it's no match for two terrifyingly powerful demons.
Seeing all her efforts easily thwarted by the other party, Bi Linglong's eyes were filled with despair.
The guards were right outside the door, yet the door itself seemed like an insurmountable chasm.
"I would rather die than be humiliated by you." Knowing that her chances of survival were slim, Bi Linglong decisively took out a dagger and slit her throat.
Falling into the hands of these demons would surely be worse than death, so it's better to end it all.
The only regret is that I will never see Ah Zu again.
"Stop!" Zhao Ruizhi's expression changed. What's the point of dying?
He moved with lightning speed towards her. This woman was resolute, but unfortunately she didn't understand the strength of our level. He would subdue her before she could slit her own throat.
Just then, with a loud bang, the wardrobe not far away suddenly exploded, and countless pieces of wood shot towards Zhao Ruizhi like sharp knives.
Zhao Ruizhi's expression changed; he had never expected there to be other people in the room.
With a casual wave of his hand, he brushed the wood chips aside, but then a flash of cold light appeared, and he hurriedly retreated.
He looked down at the dragon robe in front of him; it had been torn open, and a faint bloodstain was visible.
