Cheng Zi Yuan, who had rushed to the city gates at the fastest speed possible, was shocked by the scene before him. In front of the tall and imposing city gates, it was like an asura from hell, causing blood to splatter all over the place. Looking at the people who continued to fall to the ground, the crowd was no longer able to tell who was the enemy, and what was the enemy. There was only endless killing.

Even if he was an assassin, he would still feel uncomfortable facing the slaughter in the era of cold weapons. However, the situation before her eyes did not allow her to think further.

Her specialty was assassination, so she lowered her head to join the battle. Her ghost-like figure made it hard for people to see her existence. There were only dull grunts. Many people had their throats slashed by her sword before they could recover from their shock.

He held the dagger in his hand, using it very smoothly. She was like a senseless machine, with a knife in her hand. Her compassion was gone now. He had completely returned to his previous state. The danger of the situation caused her to become nervous. She knew that at this moment, it was either him or her own death. She had not been reborn to die again. Now, no matter what happened, all she had to do was save her life.

The assassins who attacked her seemed to be Death Soldiers. She could feel the aura of death emanating from them. She was far too familiar with this aura. Those who had come were all determined to die. She understood that even those who survived would commit suicide in the end. There was no need to waste any more energy to think about it.

Obviously, these people's training wasn't as good as the training she had experienced. After he raised his hand, only corpses were left behind.

However, the current her had caused his heart to tremble. She was like a female Luosha, as if there was no meaning in her eyes at all, only endless slaughter, a domineering aura that could wipe out everything in its path.

He was stunned for a moment, then suddenly recalled his mission. Waving his hand, he got the reinforcements to join the battle and approached Purple Garden as fast as he could.

Cheng Zi Yuan, who had long since killed with reddened eyes, was completely relying on her own instincts to accomplish what she was doing now. Therefore, when Ye Cang approached her, she did not realize that her own people were approaching her, and upon seeing the face of Ye Lan Cang, who looked exactly the same as the one who betrayed her in her previous life, she attacked.

As soon as he approached, he could feel the thick murderous intent emanating from her. Before he could even open his mouth, he was intimidated by her succeeding killing moves. She didn't give him a chance to speak, she only had the determination to kill him.

A person capable of becoming a Great General of the Northern Yue was naturally not an ordinary person. As she raised the sword in her hand, she tensed up every nerve in her body and took every move from her subordinates. It wasn't easy for the battle to be a draw, so he didn't hesitate any longer. He hastily said to her, "Princess, I'm Night Blue. The Emperor asked me to come over and help."

His words caused Cheng Ziyuan, who was highly concentrated, to be stunned. He quickly came back to his senses and understood what he had just done. However, he did not explain anything. He only nodded his head expressionlessly to show that he understood. He turned around and entered the battle. He felt slightly embarrassed. As it turned out, he was still unable to let go of that man's betrayal.

Ye Bluelight didn't bother with her actions. He simply followed behind her as if he was protecting her.

Cheng Zi Yuan felt his approach and understood what he was doing. He didn't turn back as he indifferently said, "Don't follow me." He then disappeared before Ye Cang's eyes.

The cold voice indicated the mood of her master. She really didn't want him to follow her. Helpless, Ye Blueheaven could only loudly shout out the words left behind by the Emperor just before he arrived.

"Princess, His Majesty said that he wanted to live."

When Cheng Ziyuan, who left, heard his words, a mocking expression flashed across his face. She understood that no matter what the outcome of this assassination was, the other side would not leave anything alive.

It seemed as if he was trying to verify her thoughts. Not long after Ye Bluelight joined the fray, all of the black-clothed men who were still fighting fell to the ground.

Cheng Zi Yuan stood underneath the city gate and looked at the scene before him. In his heart, he did not feel anything. The only thought he had was that these people had completed their mission.

Suddenly, she felt a chill behind her back. She felt a strong killing intent coming from behind her. She immediately turned around to look, but found that there was nothing in the darkness.

He turned his head and looked down. Then, he ordered, "Pack it up." With that, he turned around and walked up the city wall.

Not far away from her, behind a mottled tree, a blurry figure appeared. Under the cover of the mask, her face could not be seen. The only thing that could be seen was the faint smile on the corner of her mouth.

Everything happened so quickly, and it was as if nothing happened. The battle just now was resolved by Cheng Zi Yuan with the fastest speed possible. Looking at those people that she hacked up and chose to swallow poison in the end, she understood that they were the so-called Death Soldiers. As a hitman, for the first time, he wasn't used to not killing someone.

Standing at the entrance of the Royal Capital, the scene before him was quiet and serene. The faint smell of blood wafted in the air, telling of everything that had just happened. She looked down at the palace shrouded in mist. To her, everything seemed unreal.

In the past, she was a killer. What she needed to do was just kill him. No matter what methods you used, everything she experienced now told her that everything was different.

She stood on the city gate and thought for a long, long time. Only when the first rays of dawn appeared did she raise her head and look at the splendor in the distance. She understood that it was time for her to learn to accept everything that had happened.

Walking slowly down the city wall, she met the person who came to look for her. She understood that it was time to accompany him to the morning assembly.

After thinking through everything, she didn't have any doubts on her body, and she also lacked a trace of indifference.

After changing into her clothes, Helian Xuanyin stood outside the palace door as he patiently watched her walk toward him, step by step. At this moment, none of them had expected that this glance would last for ten thousand years.

In the morning assembly, the most talked about was the sneak attack last night. The one to be blamed was her, the woman who stood behind the emperor. She did not understand the current situation at all. The only thing she could do was to accept the criticism of the crowd.

Helian Xuanyi didn't say a word as he listened to his subordinate's attacks. The sneer at the corner of his mouth became even more obvious. Lifting his head slightly, he glanced at the high ceiling of the throne room and helplessly thought to himself, "Imperial Father, you really have left your son with a good question."

Cheng Zi Yuan looked at the angry old official below her, but still didn't say anything. She had never learnt how to argue with others. She only knew how to kill. In the past twenty years of her life, she had killed people she knew and was most familiar with. However, this wasn't the time to kill someone.

Helian Xuanyin was bored as he listened to the endless stream of words from his subordinates. In the end, he still opened his mouth.

"Alright, I've heard all this for the entire morning. You guys aren't sick of saying it, but I'm sick of hearing it. Can't I change to another one?"

His slightly mocking words caused the passionate people that were just talking about to instantly turn into a mechanical doll with its battery cut off, staring blankly into space.

For some reason, looking at someone who could be his grandfather at such an age, Cheng Zi Yuan was like a fool as he stood there motionlessly with the corners of his mouth raised.

And Helian Xuanyin, who was bored to death, just happened to turn around and see the faint smile on the corner of her mouth. Her heart also warmed along with it.

Without the slightest hesitation, Helian Xuanyin stood up and swept an expressionless gaze at the officials below him. He indifferently said, "Once you have investigated the matter, you will come to find me again. I don't want to hear any more of your accusations. "Withdraw."

After saying that, he turned around and left without any hesitation.

Cheng Zi Yuan looked down at the crowd of officials who had instantly turned hostile. For the first time, he felt that the feeling of a fox taking on the might of a tiger wasn't that bad. He followed him back to the inner hall.

After Helian Xuanyin entered, she chased all of the palace maids out, leaving behind only Zi Yuan. Looking at her expressionless face, her heart was filled with surprise.

Ever since their reunion, she had given herself the most expression she could muster. However, ever since she woke up from being injured, her face had become like a fake, without a single trace of expression. It was difficult for him to see her emotions on her face, and the emotions he occasionally revealed were also faint, as if there was nothing in this world that could pique her interest.

He wondered what had caused her to change so much in such a short period of time. Yes, change.

As a child, she had been naive and lively. He loved to hear her call him "Big Brother Yi" in her soft and gentle voice. But she was sent away by her father when she was six. He could not understand what his master was thinking. He was Tang Tang, a seven foot tall man, so how could he need the protection of a girl? And that girl was his little sister that he had always cherished since he was young.

Ever since she came back, because she let his Senior Brother die on the battlefield, she had never once given him a good look. In fact, she didn't even bother to give him a good look. However, at that time, she was still a girl that people could clearly see. He was still able to understand her thoughts.

But now it was different. Ever since she had crawled up from the center of the battlefield, it was as if she had become a completely different person. He had never seen a saber strike that could move so swiftly and cleanly without the slightest hesitation. However, everything seemed so natural.

He had suspected and suspected that she was not her, but the wounds and her face reminded him that she was her.

After entering the door, Cheng Zi Yuan realized that the person before him was looking at him and thinking. His deep gaze told her that the things he was thinking about were related to him. He did not speak. His expression was still the same as before, waiting for him quietly.

Not long after, Helian Xuan Yi withdrew from his thoughts and deeply glanced at the person before him who was still as steady as Mt. Tai. He lightly asked: "Regarding the matters that were discussed in the imperial court today, what views do you have?"
