When Head of the Gu Family saw this, his heart was unhappy, standing in front of him, these servants had no rules, just as he wanted to flare up, he thought of Gu Ling Hua behind him, but had no choice but to suppress the anger in his heart.

Just as he wanted to say something, Gu Ling Xue had already snatched him away.

"Since father is here, big sister will take you back. I don't want to trouble you too much."

With that, without waiting for Head of the Gu Family and Gu Ling Hua to react, Gu Ling Xue turned and left without any hesitation.

Head of the Gu Family was startled, before he could even react, Gu Ling Xue had already left their line of sight.

Gu Ling Hua looked at Head of the Gu Family, and called out somewhat guiltily: "Father."

Only then did Head of the Gu Family turn around and look at her.

Glancing at the tearful Gu Ling Hua with disdain, Head of the Gu Family flung his sleeves helplessly, then turned and left the small courtyard.

At this time, Gu Ling Xue had already embarked on the road to Imperial Palace.

Someone came to report that the Imperial Palace was in trouble.

Suspicion surfaced in Gu Ling Xue's heart, and her footsteps quickened.

No matter what happened to Mu Rong Hong Yu, she would naturally not be too worried. But if something were to happen to this country, then the benefits that belonged to her would also fall.

The fists in his sleeves tightened, Gu Ling Xue was blaming An Tian a little, and actually didn't investigate everything before reporting to her.

Since then, she knew nothing about what had happened in Imperial Palace.

Difficult?

He didn't know how difficult it was.

Upon entering the Imperial Palace, the glory and vitality of the past were long gone from his eyes, but what assaulted his face was a thick sense of lifelessness.

Gu Ling Xue frowned, she paused for a moment, then sprinted in the direction of the imperial study.

However, it was the same as before. The palace that was initially glorious no longer possessed its former glory. Standing in front of the imperial study's door, Gu Ling Xue paused, a bad premonition passing through her heart.

Just as she was about to push him away with all her might, a sonic boom came from the inside the room, and reached Gu Ling Xue's ears. Her figure flashed, and a ray of light swept past Gu Ling Xue's chest.

With a turn, Gu Ling Xue steadied herself and looked towards the source of the light. The thing that caught her eye was the dart that she was no more familiar with.

Time and again, he had tried to take away her life.

A sneer formed on the corner of his mouth as he looked inside the house, easily avoiding another sudden attack. Following which, a cool voice echoed in this courtyard that seemed to be slightly dilapidated.

"What, isn't the Lightning Strike boring?"

With that said, a clear sound came out from inside the house, following that, the darts that were attacking Gu Ling Xue increased in number.

The smile on Gu Ling Xue's face became even wider, and she looked at the dark figure inside the house. Gu Ling Xue's embroidered fists were clenched tightly, and her footsteps moved even faster, causing the people inside the house to find it hard to understand.

In the royal study room, Shang Guan Jun Yuan was closely watching Gu Ling Xue's figure that was dodging in all directions. Looking at Gu Ling Xue who was increasing her speed, the corner of her mouth couldn't help but curl up into a smile.

Gu Ling Xue, you are only so-so.

He recalled the lightning pain he had suffered because of Gu Ling Xue, as well as the loss of tens of thousands of soldiers.

Shang Guan Jun Yuan clenched his fists tightly and gave the order, allowing the people under him to attack even faster.

But, in just a short moment, Gu Ling Xue suddenly disappeared from her original position.

Shang Guan Jun Yuan immediately stood up and looked in the direction that Gu Ling Xue had disappeared in a daze. She didn't know what to do for a long time.

"Your Highness, Your Highness!"

The soldier beside him also noticed Gu Ling Xue's figure disappearing, but he did not think too much about it, and only asked: "The target has disappeared."

Saying that, the soldier suddenly froze in place and did not say another word, but his eyes were staring at Shang Guan Jun Yuan's back in shock.

Shang Guan Jun Yuan was initially looking out of the room in a daze, but when he heard his subordinate's question, he did not turn his head, but, suddenly, he heard the soldier's silence.

However, before he turned his head back, a long sword had already reached Shang Guan Jun Yuan's neck without any suspense.

"What is it? Is the lightning feast not enough for you to enjoy? "

It was still that familiar female voice. Shang Guan Jun Yuan's initial confidence had now completely dissipated.

Standing in place, Shang Guan Jun Yuan slowly raised both his hands, signalling that he would not move them recklessly, and then asked: "Who exactly are you?"

Hearing this, a chuckle sounded beside Shang Guan Jun Yuan's ears. It seemed to be filled with disdain, but it also seemed to be full of boredom. Gu Ling Xue raised the longsword in his hand, and a bloody wound was easily carved on his long neck.

Looking at the scenery in the imperial study, the imperial study was already in a mess, and every corner of the study had been filled with Shang Guan Jun Yuan's men.

In a hall with several hundred people, only Mu Rong Hong Yu was not present.

"Where's Mu Rong Hong Yu?"

If the emperor of a country suddenly disappeared, then this country would surely fall into chaos. At that time, the authority she had gained through hard work no longer seemed to have any effect.

Thus, she naturally could not sit idly by and watch Mu Rong Hong Yu's disappearance.

His heart was thumping uncontrollably, but he did not look good towards Shang Guan Jun Yuan, but the subordinates beside him were unfazed.

They all looked at Gu Ling Xue like they were staring at a tiger, as if they were waiting for her to carelessly step forward and chop them into eight pieces.

Gu Ling Xue frowned, looked at Shang Guan Jun Yuan and said: "Your subordinates are also very professional, it's just that I don't know if the ones they are hurting at that time are you or me."

Hearing this, Shang Guan Jun Yuan paused, a image of Gu Ling Xue suddenly disappearing from her mind time and time again, after which she hurriedly indicated to her subordinates to stop, and then said to Gu Ling Xue: "I've been waiting here for a long time."

"Oh?"

Seeing the guards retracting their weapons, Gu Ling Xue retracted the long sword in her hand, turned around and walked in front of Shang Guan Jun Yuan, placed the sword in front of her chest, and asked: "Why?"

The sword on Shang Guan Jun Yuan's neck finally left. Shang Guan Jun Yuan slowly heaved a sigh of relief, but he did not let his guard down. He only said: "If young lady has the guts, you will know once you lie down with me."

Hearing that, Gu Ling Xue squinted, and asked: "I don't want to follow you, so what?"

"If young lady is not willing to leave with me, then I'm afraid the Emperor of Xilan will have to change his identity."

As his voice fell, the longsword in his chest drew closer. Shang Guan Jun Yuan leaned his body slightly backwards, but there was not even the slightest bit of fear in his eyes.
