Five had been about to go guard the mountain entrance earlier, but he decided to stay now. He stood there and watched his men carry a person toward him.
The person was unconscious and covered in blood. They couldn’t see the face.
“Water.” Five gave the order in a cold voice.
Soon, one of his men brought back a bucket of water and splashed it all over the person.
When the cold water washed away the mud —
Six was astonished.
“That outfit. Isn’t that…”
Everyone looked at him in bewilderment.
Six said, “Isn’t it the younger prince?”
WHAT?!
Everyone was shocked.
Talk about a happy coincidence!
Six was so happy that he almost lost his mind.
Grabbing the bucket, he poured the water all over the person.
Soon, they saw the face.
It was a familiar face that they all recognized.
“Isn’t it…”
“Isn’t it…”
“Isn’t it Princess Sefiro?!!!”
They were all astonished.
Six was utterly disappointed.
Seven had seen this coming.
Five was the most shocked of them all.
He clenched his fists, and blue veins popped on the back of his hands.
That was impossible!
How could this person show up here? This couldn’t be happening!
“This isn’t right!” Five shook his head. “She can’t be Princess Sefiro! It can’t be her!”
Six said loudly, “That’s right! Isn’t he wearing the prince’s clothes? He should be the younger prince! Have you forgotten?”
He then told Seven, “Feng Wu has human skin masks! She can look like other people!”
Look like other people? Human skin masks?
An idea seemed to strike Five at that moment.
But the idea disappeared too quickly for him to grasp.
Just then, Sefiro woke up.
When she woke up to see the familiar faces, she whimpered in excitement.
But with her tongue cut, she couldn’t utter a word.
Six frowned. “This can’t be Princess Sefiro. He has to be the younger prince wearing a human skin mask!”
He then ran up to Sefiro and started rubbing her face.
Sefiro was so angry that she grumbled. If she could, she would kick Six away.
Unfortunately, she didn’t have any strength left.
Six was disappointed.
He moved away and shook his head at the other two men.
Five finally came back to himself.
He stared at Sefiro. “Didn’t you leave the mountain already?”
Already?
Not only Sefiro, but all the other people gave Five strange looks as well.
Five had a bad feeling. He stared at Sefiro and gritted his teeth. “When Feng Wu hunted you down earlier, you ran all the way to the entrance of the mountain, and I came out to save you. Wasn’t that you?”
No, no, no —
Sefiro shook her head repeatedly.
She was so frustrated.
She had never gotten as far as the mountain entrance, let alone be chased by Feng Wu!
It had to be one of Feng Wu’s ploys!
