The chief guard cupped his fists together and said, "Eldest Miss."

Lian Ruyue lifted up the short sword in her hand. The short sword exuded a frightening clear and cold light. Her calm gaze slowly swept over the crowd, instantly creating an oppressive aura. She pursed her lips and said:

"I am Lian Ru Yue, the young mistress of the Prime Minister's Manor. Now, I need you all to follow me out of the house to save a person. This person is none other than the young master of the Prime Minister's Mansion."

Suddenly, everyone looked at each other in dismay. In all the years that the Prime Minister had been here, there had never been a single girl that had entered the drill grounds. Not to mention a single girl leading them to save a life.

Noticing the subtle mentality in the crowd, Lian Ru Yue squinted her eyes and threw out the "crescent moon" in her hands. There was a "swoosh" sound as the short sword flew past the guards' heads and accurately stabbed into a tree behind them. The tree was only the size of a bowl.

This was a move that was taught to her by Lian Lian Fang. It was very difficult for an ordinary girl to have such precise and profound blade techniques, but she had no distractions in her heart, a hard and ruthless heart, and a fearless heart.

Everyone was shocked. The young ladies of the House of Ye they knew were not allowed out of the gate, yet this young miss had this kind of blade technique. When paired with that sharp blade, it immediately intimidated everyone.

"Protecting the peace of the Residence of General and the safety of everyone here is your responsibility. Now that the future master of this mansion is in trouble, I need all of you to come with me to rescue him. If the Eldest Young Master loses his life because of your hesitation, who can take responsibility for it?" She spoke one word at a time, and it was clear and logical, making people have no choice but to submit.

At this time, Lian Tian turned toward the crowd and said, "From now on, everyone will listen to the young miss' orders!"

"Yes sir!" The guards shouted in unison, their voices resonating throughout the entire drill grounds.

"Eldest Miss, let's go. We'll listen to your commands!" Lian Tian cupped his fist, bowed and said to Lian Yingyue.

"Alright, let's go!" Lian Ru Yue quietly sighed in relief as she shouted.

Soon, Lian Ruyue led a group of people out of the manor. Those galloping horses raised a high cloud of dust on Zhengyang Street.

The people on the street realized that the group of people was being led by a girl wearing a snow-white fur coat. Although the horse was too fast and it was just a glance, the beautiful girl's eyes were full of hatred and coldness, as if she was trying to dig out the enemy's soul!

Everyone was shocked. They had never seen such a scene before.

"Whose daughter is this? She's leading a group of men to ride on horses?" someone asked loudly.

"I saw that they are coming from the direction of the Prime Minister's Estate. It seems like …" "The young lady of the Prime Minister's Estate — Lian Ruyue!"

"The young miss of the Prime Minister's Palace, Lian Ruyue? Can a woman ride a horse and fight? "

"I really didn't expect that there would be such a woman in such a deep mansion like the Prime Minister's Estate."

Everyone was very surprised and began to discuss with each other in the street.

Lian Ruyue was riding her steed and galloping along the road. Her cold eyebrows were guarding the side as she rushed towards the direction of the Thousand Mountains. According to the news she got, the Ninth Prince wouldn't be in the capital for another day.

Lian Ruyue tightly gripped onto the horsewhip, her cold eyes tightly staring forward. At this moment, fine beads of sweat rolled down her jade-like face as she screamed in her heart —

God, please open your eyes. Please don't let me lose the [Consecutive Formula] again, please don't!

If she lost the trick, what was the point of her rebirth?

On the side of the Prime Minister's Estate, Ninefire walked out from behind the door with Lian Ruyue's letter in his arms and took the short route to find the Sixth Prince, Feng Yu. When he turned into an alleyway, he suddenly heard a swoosh sound and instantly retreated a few steps, his face deathly pale as he leaned against the wall …

Two men in black with long swords blocked his way. He immediately reached out and pressed against his chest, tightly protecting the letter.

For a whole two hours, Xiyue didn't dare to stop for a moment with her guards, and the corners of the horse's mouth also started to froth.

"Eldest Miss, would you like to rest for a moment?" Leng Mei discovered that Lian Ru Yue's expression gradually changed.

"No!" Lian Yue, who was on top of the galloping steed, shouted loudly. Her eyes were firm and her heart was as hard as a man's.

She couldn't stop for a moment. She couldn't relax even for a second.

Finally, within the billowing dust, she saw Qian Shan!

"Phew …" She raised her hand, and the team stopped.

"Eldest Miss, the young master was captured on the mountain, but we don't know where he went." Lian Tian looked up at the mountain in front as he said in a worried tone.

Lian Ruyue looked at him with an unwavering gaze, saying, "Yi'er is so smart, he will definitely think of a way to leave a clue. Now everyone split up and go up the mountain to find a usable clue first." "Remember, this time your opponent is unknown, so you must be extra careful. The young master's life and death is in your hands!"

"Yes!" "Young miss!"

Everyone answered in unison and went up the mountain separately.

This young miss hadn't stopped for a moment during the bumpy ride. She was firm and decisive the whole time, and her mind was clever and calm. She had unknowingly subdued their hearts long ago.

As she walked up the mountain, she did not waste even a second. Her embroidered shoes had been worn thin, and a hole had been made in her heel by a stone. As she walked along the road, she was struck by a stone, causing bloodstains and waves of pain.

There were many thorns on the mountain and mosquitoes, and despite the cold brows on the front, her luxurious clothes were still torn, and the back of her hand was stained with blood. There were a few jellyfish sting bags on her snow-white neck and two on her face.

However, she didn't care about the pain at all. When the thorns cut her tender skin, she didn't even make a sound. She had never seen a girl from a noble family that didn't care about her appearance and could endure such hardships.

"Eldest Miss, please wait a moment." He tore off two pieces of his clothes and said to Lian Ruyue, "My apologies!"

Saying that, he gestured to Lian Ru Yue to extend her hands and use a cloth to wrap around her palms and arms, revealing only ten fingers, so that the thorny brush would not cut through. "The road is still far, it is still unknown, it is very important to protect yourself."

"Thank you, Sir Lian." It wasn't that Lian Ruyue didn't know how to protect herself, it was just that she kept the [Consecutive Spell] in her heart and didn't know pain at all.

"Everyone hurry up, we have to find some clues before nightfall!" He turned his head and said loudly.

There were so many rugged trees on the mountain that it was hard to find any clues. If it was dark, it would be even more difficult!

Lian Ruyue thought about it, then quickened her pace.

"We're here, we're here, we're here!" The eyewitness who was being brought up the mountain, Wang Ren, suddenly pointed at a towering stone peak and excitedly shouted, "That's where that noble young master found the flower seed. He was captured by several black-clothed men the moment he turned around!"

Lian Ruyue's gaze froze, her heart skipped a beat as she quickly walked forward. Suddenly, she felt that the bottom of her feet was somewhat sticky. She slowly moved her foot to take a look — —

It was a pool of blood!

Instantly, she felt all the blood in her body freeze, and her face went ghastly pale and her entire body went ice-cold.
