The Holy Maiden of the Carefree Sect!
As the imposter Ulanara revealed her true identity, the Ghost King Yanluo involuntarily retreated. Knowing she was from the Xiaoyao Sect, he knew he was in deep trouble. And upon learning this woman was the sect's holy maiden, the Ghost King Yanluo only regretted ever cooperating with the Fourth Prince!
He couldn't afford to offend even an ordinary disciple of the Free and Unfettered Sect. What's more, this person before him claimed to be the Holy Maiden of the Free and Unfettered Sect!
As a super sect capable of rivaling the current imperial court, the power and foundation of the Xiaoyao Sect are beyond doubt. The Holy Maiden of the Xiaoyao Sect holds a position second only to the sect leader.
Rumors in the cultivation world say that this Holy Maiden of the Free and Unfettered Sect possesses a beauty that rivals that of the Heavenly Fragrance Kingdom, and her cultivation aptitude is unparalleled throughout history. Her cultivation level even surpasses that of the sect leader of the Free and Unfettered Sect.
"Is there some mistake?"
The Demon King Yanluo took two steps back, cautiously observing the Holy Maiden of the Free and Unfettered Sect, sensing something amiss. If this woman truly was the Holy Maiden of the Free and Unfettered Sect, how could she have been captured so easily on the spot?
"What are you looking at?"
"Does this saintess even deserve your attention?"
The Holy Maiden of the Carefree Sect glared coldly at the Ghost King of Smoke and Silk.
Subsequently, the Immortal-Binding Rope that bound the Holy Maiden of the Free and Unfettered Sect snapped on the spot.
The instant the Immortal-Binding Rope snapped, the Holy Maiden of the Carefree Sect revealed her true face. She was truly a beauty of unparalleled grace and beauty. Her exquisite figure, paired with a light white satin dress, made her appear like a fairy descended to earth, captivating all who beheld her with her enchanting countenance.
Even an old monster like the Demon King Yanluo couldn't help but have his eyes light up when he saw the figure and appearance of the Holy Maiden of the Carefree Sect.
Faced with such a stunning beauty, the Fourth Prince's reaction was quite different.
He wasn't attracted to the Holy Maiden of the Carefree Sect; instead, he slapped her across the face.
However, the Fourth Prince was only at the peak of the Golden Core stage, and his palm strike was easily blocked by the Holy Maiden of the Free and Unfettered Sect with a casual tap of her finger.
"Fourth Prince, do you really want to start a war with my Free and Unfettered Sect?"
The Holy Maiden of the Carefree Sect looked at the Fourth Prince with a cold gaze, her stunningly beautiful face veiled in frost.
"So it was all an act after all!"
The Fourth Prince gazed indifferently at the woman before him, recalling the scene of her being frightened unconscious by the Ghost King Yanluo, and couldn't help but sneer, "It's not that I want to start a war with your Xiaoyao Sect, but that you want to start a war with me!"
"They're all the same!"
Seeing that the Fourth Prince showed no mercy, the Holy Maiden of the Carefree Sect immediately turned cold. "Since the Fourth Prince is so stubborn, then this Holy Maiden has no choice but to send you on your way!"
He was merely a prince, not even the crown prince whom Kangxi cared about most. The Holy Maiden of the Carefree Sect immediately harbored murderous intent. With her figure and beauty, to offer herself to him and be rejected—how could such humiliation be known to anyone?
Those who know this must die!
"Arrogant!"
The Fourth Prince was amused by what the Holy Maiden of the Carefree Sect said.
They are now in the capital, in his mansion. This Holy Maiden of the Carefree Sect is indeed capable, but on his turf, she dares to try and kill him?
"Take it down!"
The Fourth Prince coldly gave the order.
The next moment, three hidden guards appeared in the room.
All three were at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage. Moreover, as soon as they appeared, they set up the Three Talents Formation.
They couldn't discern the woman's cultivation level, but if the three of them joined forces and relied on the suppression of the fixed magic array here, the Holy Maiden of the Free and Unfettered Sect could unleash about 20% of her strength. If they still couldn't defeat her even with that, then the three of them wouldn't be qualified to continue serving as secret guards.
Although the secret guards are all assassins, even assassins have their pride.
"You think you can just use a mere Three Talents Formation... Hmm?! Another formation, how despicable!"
The Holy Maiden of the Free and Unfettered Sect didn't take the three Nascent Soul cultivators seriously, even though they had formed the Three Talents Formation. However, the moment she made her move, she was horrified to discover that there were other formations here, formations that suppressed cultivation levels.
"Is this all the underhanded tricks the Fourth Prince knows?"
The Holy Maiden of the Carefree Sect was indeed a prodigy, but she was caught off guard and fell into a trap.
"Cripple her!"
Faced with the questioning from the Holy Maiden of the Carefree Sect, the Fourth Prince remained expressionless.
Despite the woman's stunning beauty, she was definitely an old monster. The Fourth Prince wasn't the type to be easily swayed by beautiful women; beauty had absolutely no effect on him.
"You dare!"
"If you dare to cripple me, my Xiaoyao Sect and your Great Qing will be locked in a life-or-death struggle!"
"Alright, let's hurt each other then!"
The moment the Holy Maiden of the Free and Unfettered Sect roared, Rong Xi's voice came from outside the door.
"Madam!"
The Fourth Prince swayed and burst through the door, rushing into the courtyard.
"I'm sorry to have worried you, Your Highness!"
Rong Xi looked at the anxious Fourth Prince and smiled sweetly.
"you……?"
"master!"
Magpie and Crimson Purple, who were kneeling on the ground, looked at Rong Xi who suddenly appeared, and it took them a while to come back to their senses before they shouted in unison.
"Okay, okay, I'm fine, get up!"
"Master, that... skeleton?"
"Oh, this one? He said he's Xiaoyaozi!"
Rong Xi blinked, signaling Taotie to drop Xiaoyaozi, which it was holding in its mouth.
"Witch, I—"
Bang!
Before Xiaoyaozi could utter any threatening words, Taotie's front hoof stomped down on Xiaoyaozi's skull, knocking him unconscious.
"Come in with me!"
Seeing the commotion in the courtyard, the Fourth Prince wanted to speak with Rong Xi, so he directly called her into the study.
Inside the study, the Holy Maiden of the Carefree Sect had become a prisoner, but her cultivation had not yet been destroyed.
"Your Highness, I have not failed you!"
The three hidden guards, all at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage, greeted the Fourth Prince and Rong Xi as they entered, then stood aside, awaiting further instructions from the Fourth Prince.
"How could you...?"
When the Holy Maiden of the Carefree Sect saw Rong Xi, she was stunned.
"That's the Xuanjin Black Prison, how could you possibly escape?"
As the Holy Maiden of the Free and Unfettered Sect, she naturally knew many of the sect's secrets. Thinking of the ancestor within the Xuanjin Black Prison, her eyes widened suddenly, and she exclaimed, "Did the ancestor release you?"
"Yeah, yeah, you're pretty smart!"
Rong Xi chuckled, "Oh, right, I forgot to mention, your Xiaoyao Sect's patriarch is outside. Would you like to go and see him?"
"Is that skeleton really Xiaoyaozi, the patriarch of the Xiaoyao Sect?"
Hearing Rong Xi's conversation with the Holy Maiden of the Free and Unfettered Sect, the Fourth Prince could no longer remain calm.
"I think so!"
Rong Xi nodded.
"Then, how could you possibly do that?"
"I have a trump card!"
Rong Xi chuckled, "After all, I inherited the legacy of the ancient Yantian Sect's sect leader. If I didn't have some means of self-protection, how could I possibly help the Yantian Sect rise again?"
