After the indoctrination was nearly complete, the group decided to find a way out.
Zuan originally intended to take advantage of this secret realm, since it was the ancestral home of the Qin kings throughout history, and there must be many treasures inside.
Before he could even begin to act, the world suddenly trembled, and everything began to crumble and fall apart.
Clearly, after Xu Fu and Ying Zheng died, this place lost some core elements and finally could not maintain itself and began to collapse.
The fact that this place didn't collapse immediately after Xu Fu and Ying Zheng's deaths already shows how well it was constructed.
Left with no other choice, Zu'an could only carry Bi Linglong in one arm and Zhao Ruizhi in the other, moving back and forth between various small floating islands to avoid the disaster of another world reversal.
Fortunately, with the experience from last time, it wasn't difficult to do this time.
Moreover, this reversal of heaven and earth did not last long. After only a few hours, the West Dog Hill Secret Realm disappeared, and in its place was the familiar secret realm from before.
Looking at the surrounding green mountains and clear waters, Bi Linglong couldn't help but exclaim with emotion: "It's so amazing! I thought this place would become the end of the world."
Zaun couldn't understand the reason behind it. Logically speaking, this secret realm should at least be in ruins, if not destroyed, but it looked like nothing had happened.
"I want to go home! I want to go back to the palace!" Zhao Ruizhi shouted loudly. This trip was no fun at all. The palace was much better because there was good food, and he could sleep and play anytime he wanted.
Zuan and Bi Linglong didn't want to delay, so they led him all the way to the entrance in their memories.
Not long after, they suddenly saw a group of people rushing towards them from afar.
The people over there had obviously seen them too, and immediately became extremely noisy.
A flash of red light, and one of them appeared before the three: "Crown Prince, Crown Princess!"
This person was none other than Zhu Xie Chixin, the Grand Commander of the Embroidered Robe Envoy. As soon as the secret realm was restored, he led his men in to check it out immediately.
Because the matter was of great importance, he did not allow anyone from the Prince Qi's residence to enter, and even kept the people from the academy outside.
Because everyone suspected that the Crown Prince and his entourage were in grave danger, no one dared to provoke them at this time.
That's why Zhu Xie Chixin was so overjoyed to see the Crown Prince and Crown Princess.
Zuan then spoke in a hoarse voice, "Commander, I have successfully completed my mission and brought the Crown Prince and Crown Princess back safely."
After he finished speaking, he collapsed due to "exhaustion," immediately drawing gasps from the surrounding crowd who rushed to check on him.
Bi Linglong, standing to the side, secretly sighed, "This guy is a natural actor. Humph, I don't know how many times I've been fooled by him before."
Despite her complaints, she knew what she had to do. She cleared her throat and said at the right moment, "Lord Zu was seriously injured while fighting bravely to protect the Crown Prince and me. You must treat him immediately."
Once his behavior was defined in full view of everyone, many things became much easier afterward.
Zhu Xiechi hurriedly ordered his subordinates to do as he was told, then suddenly realized something and stared at Bi Linglong in shock: "Crown Princess, what's wrong with your hair...?"
"This is a long story, and I need to see the Emperor," Bi Linglong said. Her initiative to ask to see the Emperor first, compared to being summoned and interrogated by him, gave people a completely different impression. This would subconsciously make everyone think that the Emperor was still her pillar of support and that she was firmly on the same side as him.
Zhu Xie Chixin nodded: "The Emperor is already waiting in the palace. He has ordered us to bring any discoveries to the palace immediately and report back."
Bi Linglong took a deep breath; whether she could successfully overcome this calamity depended on this moment.
Even while "unconscious," Zuan was extremely solemn. Although the two had simulated many scenarios, who knew what unexpected things might happen in actual practice?
