When they were all tied up, the fog had dispersed.
The men in black looked at Xie Qiao and the others with eyes full of fear and disbelief.
Some of them had swallowed the poison they hid in their mouths at the first moment and died. The remaining ten or so were held down by Xie Pinggang and the others before they could die.
“Senior Sister… How did you change the weather?!” Xiao Yurong could not explain it.
Xie Qiao’s face was pale. She grabbed the frame and said slowly, “It’s all fake…”
It was more like dark energy than fog.
Some powerful spirits could make their own houses into all kinds of illusions. These illusions did not exist in reality. In fact, they used auras and other mysterious factors to make people see the illusions.
Where did she get the ability to call the wind and summon the rain?
It was just that the souls of the dead gathered their strength to help her.
Xie Qiao had already put away the souls of the dead.
Controlling the souls of the dead to deal with the living was different from dealing with the souls of the dead. Therefore, at this moment, she was very tired and her hands were trembling. She was trying her best to maintain her perfect image and kept her emotions in check.
Xiao Jurong and Sang You could not tell that. They only thought that their senior sister was very powerful.
However, just when Xie Qiao was about to collapse, Zhao Xuanjing reached out and held her waist.
The three junior brothers widened their eyes and were a little confused.
In fact, Zhao Xuanjing wanted to say that although there were many enemies in the area, they might not necessarily lose if they fought to the end. He had already shot the fireworks at the first moment. As long as he could stall for time, it would not be a big problem for him to save his life.
However, he thought that it was because he had killed so many people that he did not have the time to say some things.
Of course, with Xie Qiao’s help, it would save a lot of effort. It would also be smoother if there were so many people left alive.
His eyes were filled with heartache. After he pulled Xie Qiao over, he picked her up and sat on the carriage frame.
The unnecessary words became pale.
“What happened to Eldest Senior Sister? Is she alright?” Xiao Yurong and the others also realized that something was wrong with her. They all became concerned.
Xie Qiao shook her head. “It’s nothing. It’s a piece of cake.”
She did not even faint. It was not a big deal.
She was just a little tired. She just needed to rest.
“Your Highness, you should go back early tomorrow. As for Eldest Senior Sister… since she promised the ghoul, it’s not good to go back on her words. Tomorrow morning, we will take her to the nearby villages and towns to deal with the ghoul,” Sang You thought for a while and said, “That’s right.”
These people were all here for the Crown Prince. The longer the Crown Prince stayed outside, the more dangerous it would be.
There were 60 to 70 people here today. What if 500 to 600 people came tomorrow night?
Of course, it would be a little difficult to get with so many people, but it was possible, right?
“Not only Your Highness has to go back early, but he also can’t stay in the Crown Prince’s residence outside the imperial city after he returns. He should go back to the Eastern Palace as soon as possible so that Your Highness can be safe and sound!” Xiao Yurong also said.
Jiang Jinlu nodded as well.
There were many guards in the imperial city, so it was not a problem. However, it was not difficult to hide an assassin in the capital.
The Crown Prince had always been headstrong and always ran around. He would not be lucky every time.
Zhao Xuanjing was cold.
They want him to leave his wife behind and go back to the imperial city by himself?
Why did he feel something odd about that?
He looked at the men in black with a gloomy look and gritted his teeth. “I’m fine. The guards have arrived before dawn. The same thing won’t happen again tomorrow. Minister Xie, I’ll leave these people to you when we get back. No matter what method you use, you have to find out who’s behind this!”
If he found out which b*stard that did not care about his life and dared to be so outrageous… Ha!
