His spear was completely stained red with blood, which dripped continuously.

Watching his points and villain value steadily increase, Gu Mu knew that after today's battle, he would have the opportunity to exchange for another complete dragon scale.
As for Chaos Essence, since he was unsure what would happen after taking it, Gu Mu planned to wait until the war ended and he returned to the palace before taking it.
Inside the palace city
The Emperor of the Eagle Kingdom watched the beacon fires rise ever higher.
They knew that war had broken out on the frontier.
"Someone come here..." He was about to call for someone to issue new orders.
But his voice was hoarse in his throat, unable to come out, because he felt a cold blade pressed against his throat.
A very pleasant yet extremely cold voice said, "I've finally figured it out. This is when your defenses are at their weakest."
"Furthermore, I have already figured out the patrol routes of the guards in this palace."
Lu Xiaoyao pointed her sword at the Emperor of the Eagle Kingdom's neck and said coldly.
"Even if you call for help and those eunuchs rush in, I can still kill you before they can save you."
"Besides, a few eunuchs can't stop me at all."
“I believe I will have enough time to escape once the patrolling guards arrive.”
There was one more thing Lu Xiaoyao didn't say—even if she didn't have enough time to escape, she could hide in the Hidden City.
This time, she took advantage of the fact that the emperor's study was undefended to enter first, and then hid in the hidden city.
He waited until the emperor entered the study before revealing himself and carrying out the assassination.
"Please, don't kill me. What do you want? Just tell me, and I'll give you anything." Cold sweat beaded on the Emperor of the Eagle Kingdom's forehead.
The knife tip was pressed against his neck, making him feel death approaching.
At this moment, even if he shouted, he knew that the assassin was fully capable of killing him.
Even if his men captured the assassin, a one-for-one exchange wouldn't be worthwhile in the eyes of the Eagle Emperor.
He felt that his life was more precious than anyone else's.
"Speak quickly, I will give you anything you want, as long as you don't kill me. I am the emperor, there is nothing I cannot do."
The Emperor of the Eagle Kingdom pleaded anxiously.
“You have…” Lu Xiaoyao lowered her head and said coldly, her eyes filled with emotionless indifference: “I want the antidote, I want freedom, and only the emperor of the Southern Kingdom can give me these.”
"I..." Before the Emperor of the United Kingdom could finish speaking...
Lu Xiaoyao gently slashed with her sword.
Bright red blood gushed from the Emperor of the Eagle Kingdom's neck, his head lolled to the side, and he stopped breathing completely.
He died.
