Unexpectedly, a few prison wardens suddenly appeared at the top of the cell room and stabbed at her with their treasured swords. The ten swords in front of her and the dozen or so swords on top of her head weaved together into a huge invisible net. Although there were only twenty or so sharp swords in front of her, it seemed as if millions of sharp swords were stabbing at various parts of her body, making her unable to dodge them.

She had not expected that she would fall into a trap that had been set up beforehand by someone else, much less that she would actually lose her life here. Only, she died a little unwillingly. She had yet to see the Southern Sea, and had yet to turn the case over for the Southern Sea, so she could not bear to die! However, the countless swords were about to pierce into her body, leaving her either dead or crippled.

"Close your eyes and focus on listening." Chen Jiaxuan's voice slowly drifted into Zhining's ears from not far away.

ZhiNing hurriedly closed her eyes. She listened attentively, and sure enough, a dozen or so sharp swords directly pierced all the major acupoints on her body.

Zhining raised the flexible sword in her hand. According to the voice of the sword wind, she used the flexible sword in her hand to block all the sharp swords held by the jailers.

Immediately after, ZhiNing turned around, dodging the dozen or so sharp swords on the ground. At the same time, she waved the treasured swords in her hand, completely destroying the sharp swords among the dozen or so jailers. Before she could react, the sharp swords of the dozens of jailers on the ground pierced her in unison. ZhiNing hurriedly jumped up from the ground to avoid the sharp swords of the dozens of jailers on the ground, but at this moment, the swords of the dozen jailers in midair had already pierced towards ZhiNing's chest. ZhiNing was immediately shocked, she wanted to dodge, but it was already too late.

Just as the tens of jailers' swords were about to land on Zhining's chest, a figure suddenly appeared in midair. He pulled Zhining to his side, causing her to dodge the jailers' sharp swords, and then he forcefully threw her to the ground, ordering, "Go!"

"What?" Zhining immediately stared wide-eyed at the man who had thrown her onto the ground. She could not be more familiar with this voice. Who else could it be other than Chen Jiaxi? " "Father?" She would never have thought that at this critical moment, Chen Jiaxue would disregard his own life to save her! His heart instantly felt warm.

ZhiNing wanted to stay and fight alongside Chen Jiawei, but she was already thrown to the ground by him. She flipped in the air, wanting to use her qinggong to return to him, but was stopped by him, "Hurry and go!" After saying this, the Chen family guard brandished his sword as he started fighting with the guards.

She leapt into the air, intending to fight alongside Chen Jiaxuan. Chen Jiaxuan had risked his life to save her, so how could she abandon Chen Jiaxuan and flee for her life?

At this time, the Chen family guards had already broken through the heavy encirclement and were rushing towards the ground. Seeing this, Zhining hurriedly turned around and flew towards the ground. She and the Chen family guards might be able to tie with the prison wardens, but she knew that the number of prison wardens would only increase. If they didn't run now, then when would they? If there was a war, the ones injured would only be her and Chen Jiaxi.

Zhining and Chen Jiawei landed on the ground at almost the same time. The moment they landed on the ground, the two of them performed their Qing Gong and ran in different directions.

Only when she had completely lost sight of the guards behind her did she change into a new female attire and walk back to the Chen residence in the dark of the night. At this moment, she was very worried about Chen family guards, although she was very confident in Chen family guards abilities, she could not help but worry about Chen family guards' comfort.

Zhining ran frantically all the way back to the Chen residence. Only when she saw Chen family guards standing at the Chen residence's entrance did she finally relax her tensed heart.

Seeing Chen Jiawu, wearing a black coat with his hands behind his back, restlessly pacing back and forth in front of the door, Zhining suddenly felt a warm feeling in her heart. She could tell, and she could also feel, that this time, Chen Jiaxue was worried about her.

This kind of family-like worry warmed Zhining's heart. She forcefully sniffed the tears that were about to flow out of her eyes and forced them back. After which, he smiled at Chen Jiaxi, "Dad, I'm back." The moment the words left her mouth, she realized that it had been a long time since she had called out to Chen Jiaxue this way. However, when she called out this time, she realized that the feeling of calling him "father" was actually very good!

Chen Jiaxuan stopped in his tracks and turned around excitedly to look at Zhining, then revealed a gratified smile, "It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back."

Zhining slowly walked in front of Chen Jiaxue, looking down at the ground like a child who had made a mistake, "Dad, I'm sorry. It's all because I was too rash and caused you to sell it and save me. "

Chen Jiaxi reached out his hand and gently patted Zhining's shoulder, "As long as you're fine, that's good."

As soon as Chen Jiaxuan finished his sentence, the tears in Zhining's eyes began to flow uncontrollably. Only now did she realize that Chen Jiaxi had always cared about her, it was just that she had never felt it before.

When the Chen family's guard saw Zhining's tears, he was suddenly at a loss for what to do. He just looked at Zhining with a slightly reproachful look, "Silly child, what are you crying for?"

ZhiNing stretched out her hand to wipe the tears in her eyes, then sniffed forcefully and retracted all of the tears in her eyes. She looked rather guiltily at Chen Jiaxi, "Dad, it's my fault this time. I've implicated you."

Chen Jiaxuan could not help but chuckle. He dotingly patted Zhining's slightly trembling shoulder, "What is there to thank or not to thank between father and daughter?" "Quickly go to your room and rest. There are still a lot of important things to be done tomorrow." There will be many opportunities after reminiscing, and there will be no rush.

ZhiNing nodded towards the Chen family guard, "Dad, your daughter has gone to rest. You should get some rest as soon as possible."

Chen family's Wei and smiled at Zhining, "Ok."

The next day.

She lazily lied on the bed and looked out the half-open window at the sunny weather outside, pursing her lips into a smile. This was the best sleep she had ever had since coming to this dynasty.

Stretching lazily, Zhining got up from the bed. From today onwards, she would be following Princess Wu Xue's personal maidservant, La Mei. He hoped that Gu Ziming would be able to find valuable clues on Lamei's body and free the Southern Sea from her prison cell.

Thinking of the Southern Sea, ZhiNing couldn't help but sigh deeply. Stealing into the prison yesterday had already failed, and it would probably be even harder for her to break into the prison to see the Southern Sea from now on.

"Master, are you in the room?" The young maid stood outside and knocked gently on the door.

ZhiNing could not help but be slightly startled. Usually, maidservants rarely knocked on her door, but once they knocked on it, it meant that the maidservants had something important to report to her.

ZhiNing frowned slightly. Why would this young maid look for her?

"Come in." She instructed the maidservant in a light tone.

The young maid gently pushed open the door and entered the room. She walked in front of ZhiNing and handed the things in her hands to her, shyly and timidly saying, "Young Master, the old master asked this servant to pass this to you." She paused for a moment before softly speaking, "The old master said that this item can only be used once!"

ZhiNing froze for a moment. The thing that Chen Jiawei had given her?

She stretched out her hand to take the item that the young maid handed to her. After the young maid placed the item in ZhiNing's hand, she turned around and left the room. ZhiNing opened up her palm and looked at the things in her hand. The things were tightly wrapped in the handkerchief. She then opened the handkerchief one layer at a time. Surprisingly, it was a token, a golden token that allowed people to enter and exit at will!
