Not only were there four great patrons, but also so many skilled soldiers.
In fact, any one of them, leading this group of military experts, would have been enough to wipe out the Eastern Palace's forces. I never expected them to mobilize their entire force!
Lu Xiao smiled slightly: "Prince Qi has always been one to fight battles he is not sure of winning. His Highness has always adhered to the principle of either not taking action at all, or taking action with absolute certainty. I originally had some reservations about this, but after witnessing the Crown Princess's various commanding and strategic planning these days, I have to admire Prince Qi's foresight."
Bi Linglong gave a wry smile: "I am just a junior, I cannot accept such praise from a grandmaster."
At the same time, she secretly transmitted her voice to Zu'an: "Zu'an, later you should find a chance to break through and escape, and tell the Emperor what happened here. You are the only one among us who can do this."
Zuan's expression turned serious: "I'll take you away!"
He couldn't care about anyone else, and even if he only took Bi Linglong with him, he probably wouldn't be able to leave.
Two grandmasters, two ninth-rank soldiers, and a whole bunch of military experts—if Mi Li helped, there might still be a sliver of hope. Unfortunately, when he tried to communicate with Mi Li just now, she completely ignored him.
Bi Linglong shook her head: "The Crown Prince is here, all my subordinates are here, how can I escape?"
Just then, a cracking sound was heard, and Meng Pan, who was struggling in the air, suddenly went limp and fell into a puddle of mud, then flew in an arc and landed at Bi Linglong's feet.
Lu Xiao said calmly, "I hate people who are afraid of death more than anything else in my life. Consider this a small gift for the Crown Princess."
Zu An felt a chill run down his spine. Lu Xiao had his hands behind his back the whole time, but Meng Pan, who was at the mid-stage of the sixth rank, seemed to be held by an invisible hand and had no power to resist.
Killing a sixth-rank expert is easier than killing a chicken; he doesn't even need to lift a finger. Is this the combat power of a grandmaster?
Bi Linglong said coldly, "Young Master Meng was sent by me to break through the encirclement and deliver a message. How could he be a coward who fears death? On the contrary, you are the one who deserves to die for killing such a loyal and righteous man."
She knew that the other party had said that on purpose to undermine the morale of the Meng family warriors. After all, if their master was afraid of death, what were they, his men, still trying to hold on for?
So he quickly defined Meng Pan's character, which immediately calmed the hearts of the Meng family warriors.
As expected, the Meng family warriors who were originally dejected were now full of fighting spirit, and their eyes were almost spitting fire when they looked at Lu Xiao. This man killed their young master and smeared the Meng family. He was simply despicable!
Lu Xiao was taken aback at first, then laughed: "The Crown Princess is indeed skilled, but what's the point of these little tricks in the face of absolute power?"
"Absolute strength?" A strange look appeared on Bi Linglong's face. "Since you acknowledge absolute strength so much, do you dare to have a fair duel with me?"
