Upon hearing her immediately inquire about the eldest princess, the leader shut his mouth as soon as he opened it.
The Black-Clad Guards are destined for a calamity.
"Can't we talk about the Eldest Princess?"
Noticing the resistance in his eyes, Jiang Bai raised an eyebrow.
"Do you have any other questions?"
The leader changed the subject, his gaze sweeping over the unconscious guards in black robes around him, his eyes filled with a mixture of pity and sorrow.
The Xuanyi Guard was created by the eldest princess. Even though decades have passed and the personnel have been replaced several times, they have never thought of betraying her.
The eldest princess is their master, and everything related to her is kept secret.
Seeing that he was determined not to speak, Jiang Bai felt a little embarrassed.
She's not some kind of psychopath who enjoys killing.
"Alright, then why don't you tell me what place is depicted in this picture?"
Since he couldn't find out anything about the princess, Jiang Bai shifted his attention and took out the map from his pocket again.
The leader of the Black-Clad Guards glanced around, considered their current predicament, and replied, "This is the Black-Clad Guards' training camp."
"Just a training camp?"
"It's just a training camp."
The leader nodded in approval.
His face was completely covered by a mask, making it impossible to see his expression.
Jiang Bai had an urge to tear off his mask, but after thinking about it, he decided against it.
Don't let yourself take a life for no reason.
"Besides the camp, is there anything else inside?" Jiang Bai persisted.
The map was hidden in the jewelry box at the stone gate; she didn't believe it was just a simple training camp.
After all, she came here to find treasure. If the map only shows a camp, why would she travel so far?
Want to play?
"There's only a campsite, nothing else."
The leader of the Black-Clad Guards stuck to this answer, regardless of whether Jiang Bai believed it or not; he himself believed it.
When she came out, he had activated all the mechanisms, so even if she found the place with the map, she would only see an ordinary camp and wouldn't find anything else.
If you can't see the expression on his face, it's not good.
Jiang Bai felt a little irritated.
"Tell me honestly, haven't you wanted to die a long time ago?"
Otherwise, why would they be so uncooperative?
The leader of the Black-Clad Guards looked at her as if she were an idiot, as if asking her why she would ask such a question.
If you can live, who would want to die?
Understanding his gaze, Jiang Bai remained silent for a moment.
The leader of the Black-Clad Guards remained silent.
Just then, they heard a slight noise from the side, and the two of them turned to look at it at the same time.
Ming Yu slowly opened his eyes, his hand unconsciously rubbing his neck. Memories returned to his mind, and his eyes suddenly sharpened as he looked at Jiang Bai.
He was stunned when he saw it.
Sitting in front of Jiang Bai was a man in black with gray hair and a mask resembling the King of Hell.
Around the two, a group of men dressed in black lay scattered on the ground, their heads seemingly out of sight.
Don't tell him these people are all Black-Clad Guards?
Ming Yu's gaze subtly swept over the sleeve of the leader of the Black-Clad Guards. Seeing the familiar pattern on the sleeve, he was certain that those lying on the ground were indeed Black-Clad Guards.
He fell into an eerie silence.
Jiang Bai also fell silent.
This person was knocked unconscious for less than ten minutes, and he's already awake?
Her hand was itching to strike again, wondering if she should hit him once more.
"If you want to know about the Princess, why don't you ask him? The Ji royal family probably knows more about the Princess than I do."
The leader of the Black-Clad Guards spoke with a hint of sarcasm, and his gaze toward Ming Yu was also somewhat unfriendly.
Jiang Bai turned his gaze and leaned closer to Ming Yu.
The oppressive feeling emanating from Jiang Bai was too strong. Ming Yu realized that his internal injuries were worsening. Ignoring his severely injured body, he moved backward with all his might.
“Miss Jiang, please speak frankly. There’s no need for you to be so close to me.”
He secretly mobilized his internal energy, but it dissipated as soon as he managed to raise a trace of it. Ming Yu frowned slightly.
"I'm just curious about the matter between the Eldest Princess and the Black-Clad Guards, but unfortunately the leader of the Black-Clad Guards is unwilling to tell me. I wonder if Your Highness would be willing to answer my questions?"
"What does Miss Jiang want to know? I will tell you everything I know without reservation."
When you're under someone's roof, you have to bow your head.
Mingyu glanced at Jiang Bai discreetly; her face was still covered with a veil, revealing only a pair of exceptionally beautiful eyes.
A few wisps of fair skin were exposed, suggesting that a very beautiful face must be hidden beneath the face mask.
"Let's start with the birth of the eldest princess!"
"Speaking of her getting married."
Jiang Bai sat to the side, and without anyone noticing, he had plucked a few vines and was skillfully weaving them in his hands.
Ming Yu looked up at the leader of the Black-Clad Guards and saw that he was closing his eyes and ignoring everything. His gaze fell on the leader's obviously weak wrist, which must have been dislocated. Ming Yu's lips twitched slightly.
He had long heard that Ji Mo's wife liked to cripple people's limbs, but seeing it with his own eyes now sent chills down his spine.
Seeing the impatience in Jiang Bai's eyes, he then began to speak.
Princess Xuyang.
She was the elder sister of the founding emperor of the Qian Yuan Kingdom. Originally from a farming family, she had a fortuitous encounter in her youth and learned martial arts.
Later, the previous dynasty's imperial family was ruthless, and the people suffered greatly. So she led her younger brother in a rebellion, successfully conquered the country, and established the Qian Yuan Kingdom.
At the age of eighteen, she was betrothed by the emperor to the current head of the Yu family, a prominent family from the previous dynasty.
"Are you done talking?"
Jiang Bai looked at Ming Yu, and he nodded.
If there were a storytelling contest in this world, this third prince would probably get a zero.
