Hearing the two of them talking, Hong Zhong was confused at first, but then she thought of the heart wrenching pain in his body, as well as the warm flow in his body. She understood something, could that warm flow be the wave ball of light that was forcefully forced out of his body by Spiritual Master Xuan Ji that night, and transformed into Inner Qi?

If that was really the case, then wouldn't he have fifty years of cultivation in Master of Pure Wisdom? Now, it seemed to be able to explain why Huyan Ruijin thought that she had killed Master of Pure Wisdom.

"So you're the one who killed my father?" After Huyan Ruijin finished speaking, her voice carried a lot of coldness.

Baili Mingyue calmly replied, "No!"

Huyan Ruijin was the great general that had taken control of a third of Xi Ling's troops in the recent years. She was also a famous warlord general in the Navy Tide Continent and could be said to be a rare genius.

Huyan Ruijin was silent for a moment: "If you accuse my master of murdering my father, then what evidence do you have! Why should This King believe you? "

Baili Mingyue flung his sleeves, no longer wanting to argue with him, "Whether or not you believe me is up to you. This king will allow you to kill anything in the National Temple, but this king will definitely not allow you to hurt even a hair on her head. No matter what the reason was, if he dared to injure this girl, he would definitely injure her!

"In that case, This King will have to consult the Regent." Huyan Ruijin said, and then used her Spirit Qi to fly up. Baili Mingyue, who was standing in front of Hong Zhong, did not hesitate either and quickly flew up into the air. Her beautiful eyes that were like moonlight, contained a chilly killing intent.

For a moment, on the path of the quiet cold palace, many powerful squalls formed by Inner Qi rampaged about, causing Hong Zhong and the others who were at the side to feel pain on their faces.

From the last time he watched the battle between Baili Mingyue and Leng Yihang, Hong Zhong felt that the thing she should do now was to find a place to hide herself the most, so as to not accidentally injure her, that wouldn't be good! As a result, he carried the steamed buns on the ground and found a bush to hide in.

Wu Hen, who was at the side, looked at Hong Zhong's actions in surprise. Master was now risking his life to fight Huyan Ruijin for her.

But Hong Zhong did not know what he was thinking at the moment, and instead waved at him: "Wu Hen, why aren't you hiding, when they start fighting, if I accidentally kill you, you will be wrongly accused! Furthermore, during the match between the uncle and Huyan Ruijin, he was distracted and had to take care of your safety.

Wu Hen was startled, he did not expect that Hong Zhong had actually hidden herself to prevent Master from being distracted. She walked over speechlessly, and of course, it was not because she was afraid of accidentally killing him, but to ensure Hong Zhong's safety. Hong Zhong was right, if Master was distracted while fighting with Huyan Ruijin, although she would not lose, it would still be bad!

The two had found a place to hide. The battle between the two had already begun. Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! …

From the battle of inner force to a fight of fists and legs, Hong Zhong could no longer see anything clearly. She could only see two blobs of figures, moving back and forth not too far away, Hong Zhong turned to look at Wu Hen, "Wu Hen, if you were to find a murderer in the Forbidden Palace, will the Emperor reward you?"

Wu Hen was stunned for a moment. Although he did not know what she meant, he still replied honestly, "It should be possible." The Emperor had always been a person of distinct rewards and penalties. If they were to find out and capture him, they would definitely reward him.

Hong Zhong nodded her head, "Then, now that Huyan Ruijin is killing people in the forbidden palace, for these imperial guards to not even come here to arrest him, is it because the imperial palace doesn't have enough people?"

Not enough manpower?

Wu Hen turned his head to glance at her and explained speechlessly, "It's time for the guards to change shifts, that's why there's no one around. They'll be here soon." It was the time of shift change for the imperial guards. Only after the complete shift change would the imperial guards begin a new round of patrols.

"Then don't you think about trying to hurry them to turn in their shift? If Uncle and Huyan Ruijin finish their fight and they don't come, can't I ask Baili Yi Chen for the reward? " Hong Zhong hugged the bun, and said thoughtfully.

Could it be that someone like him, who wanted her life, couldn't compare to a reward in her heart!?

Baili Mingyue didn't know whether to laugh or cry. At this moment, this girl was actually thinking of a reward?

Wu Hen was also speechless, obviously he did not expect Hong Zhong to say such words. After thinking about it, he looked at the two people fighting: "Don't worry, with master here, he won't be able to escape."

"Oh, then I'm relieved." Hong Zhong nodded, caressing Steamed Bun's furry body, he quietly waited for the results.

Even though Baili Mingyue had been poisoned by the cold poison, in the entire Navy Tide Continent, there were less than three people who could contend against him. Even in the previous Sentiment Crossing Cliff, Huyan Ruijin's master, Spiritual Master Xuan Ji, had been on par with him.

Huyan Ruijin was naturally not his opponent. After around a hundred moves, he was struck by Baili Mingyue's palm wind and lost the match.

After being struck by the palm, Huyan Ruijin did not admit defeat. She frowned and forced herself to stand up, with a smile on her face, she raised her Spirit Qi and formed a seal with her hands. Immediately, a strong blood red light appeared from his palm, forming a barrier in front of Baili Mingyue.

Wu Hen looked at the red light that appeared from Huyan Ruijin's palm and asked in disbelief, "Blood Bat Kill? How could he know the Blood Bat Slaughter? "

"Blood Bat Slaughter, what is that?" Hong Zhong turned to look at Wu Hen.

Wu Hen calmed himself down and explained to Hong Zhong: "Blood Bat Slaughter, is a very powerful martial arts technique. It is also known as the Ancient Four Great Sacred Techniques along with Kirin Flames, Dragon Subduing Art, and phoenix dance nine days. It's just that this Blood Bat Slaughter is extremely sinister and evil, cultivators have a strong killing instinct, many years ago they were ordered by the martial artists to burn it, and were not able to learn it.

"Such a powerful appearance." Hong Zhong tilted her head and looked at the two people fighting nervously. With Huyan Ruijin's evil and evil martial arts, she hoped that uncle was fine.

Baili Mingyue looked at Huyan Ruijin's Blood Bat Killing technique, her face still cold. There was not a single trace of fear in her eyes, and her killing intent did not decrease in the slightest, "Merely Blood Bat Killing techniques, you want to fight against this king?" As he spoke, the corners of his lips curled up, revealing a bloodthirsty smile.

With victory in hand, Wu Hen's expression changed drastically, "Master, you can't." With Master like this, it was obvious that he was going to use a killing move. And the only thing that could contend against the blood bat's attack was the Dragon Subduing Art.

Master had already mastered the ninth layer of the Dragon Resisting Technique.

However, the Emperor Dragon's Art required the user to have pure physical strength and vigor. If the body lacked energy, then it was very likely that the user would be affected by the backlash of the same inner force. The current master's body could not be risked!

However, no matter how anxious Wu Hen was, Baili Mingyue ignored him completely, determined to kill the person who had hurt her at all costs.

Seeing Wu Hen's expression change so drastically, Hong Zhong could guess that Baili Mingyue was probably going to use a very powerful martial arts. Furthermore, after using it all up, he reckoned that Wu Hen would most likely be severely injured. If they were to fight now, what would the outcome be? "

Wu Hen turned his head and said coldly, "I can't say for sure about Master's situation, but Huyan Ruijin will definitely die!" Even if Mo Chen was here, he would probably not be able to predict Master's current situation.

In the face of Master of Pure Wisdom's last words and the unforeseeable outcome after the fight with Baili Mingyue, Hong Zhong hesitated. Huyan Ruijin's desire to kill him had already undoubtedly been revealed, and no one would be willing to keep a hidden danger by their side.

However, not to mention that Baili Mingyue would have some unforeseen mishaps because of this, even if she were to face her promise, she wouldn't be able to sit idly by and do nothing! After some thought, he finally rushed out. "Uncle, wait, wait!"

Baili Mingyue was initially prepared to use his full strength to overwhelmingly kill Huyan Ruijin, but when he heard Hong Zhong's voice, he retracted a bit of his inner force and used about 50% of his inner force to push Huyan Ruijin back.

Even though it was only fifty percent, it made it impossible for Huyan Ruijin to resist. She spat out a mouthful of blood and the clothes on her chest and the ground were stained with terrifying fresh blood.

As for Baili Mingyue, she had naturally received the backlash of fifty percent of her own internal power. She could only feel a fishy feeling rush through her throat, but after he could barely hold it in, he looked at Hong Zhong in puzzlement.

At this moment, the bun in Hong Zhong's embrace also cried out two times, showing its protest. This man was too vicious. According to Steamed Bun's way of thinking, he should've just bit him to death!

Hong Zhong walked forward, seeing that Baili Mingyue did not seem to have any abnormalities, she felt at ease. She turned and looked at Huyan Ruijin, taking out a jade pendant from her waist, she threw it at him: "Huyan Ruijin, it doesn't matter if you believe me or not, the death of Master of Pure Wisdom has nothing to do with us. This jade pendant was given to you by your father before he died. I originally wanted to hand it over to you the first time we met, but it was delayed because of various reasons.

Huyan Ruijin was initially curious as to why Hong Zhong wanted to save him. When she raised her head, she saw a crystal clear object fly out from her hands, and quickly reached out, catching the jade pendant. After hearing what Hong Zhong said, she looked at the jade in her hand and was stunned.

This jade pendant was originally a pair. According to matriarch, this was a token of love between her and her royal father. One of it was given to him by matriarch, while the other was allegedly worn by her royal father, whom he had never seen before.

Looking at the sparkling jade pendant in his hand, his eyes reddened. He slowly reached his hand out and took out another identical jade pendant from his waist. He put the two pendants together and with a slight twist, the two pendants combined into one!

That's right, this jade pendant was indeed a relic left behind by my royal father when he was still alive, but why would this relic appear in Hong Zhong's hands?

Baili Mingyue stood at the side, quietly looking at Hong Zhong and Huyan Ruijin, not saying anything. When Wu Hen saw that the two of them had finished fighting, he quickly looked at Baili Mingyue with concern. He shook his head almost indiscernibly, indicating that he was fine.

Huyan Ruijin stared blankly for a good while before he slowly opened her mouth. "I … royal father was really not killed by you?! " These words sounded like a rhetorical question, but it was actually a result of his own determination.

After all, if they were the murderers, how could they have obtained this jade pendant that was so precious to them? Why did he have to go through so much trouble to hand the jade pendant over to him? However, he could not believe it when they said that his Master was the murderer of his royal father!

Hong Zhong shook her head, looking at Huyan Ruijin, she emotionally sighed: "Huyan Ruijin, before he passed away, Master of Pure Wisdom once begged me to not take your life, so even if you wanted to kill me time and time again, today, I will not let the Regent King take your life. However, if you continue to be stubborn enough to kill me in the future to vent my anger, then the next time, I will definitely not be soft-hearted."

When these words were spoken, the entire audience went silent.

After Hong Zhong finished speaking, she hugged Steamed Bun and stood up: "Actually, your royal father has always loved you a lot." After that, Hong Zhong turned and left without even looking back. Because she knew, Huyan Ruijin's heart was currently very complicated, he needed time to organize her thoughts!

Hong Zhong brought Steamed Bun and left. Baili Mingyue also turned around to follow him. Leaving Huyan Ruijin alone, while looking at the jade pendant in his hand, his mind only felt a buzzing sound. So it turned out that his royal father loved him, because he had always had his mother and son in his heart!

"Jin Er, do you hate me?"

"Jin Er, fifteen years, I don't owe anyone, I don't owe Xi Ling, I don't owe big sister, if you say it's the only one I owe, it's only to you and your mother, I can't give you anything else, but if you want to take my life, I can still give you something."

"Jin Er, do you know? In this life, I am a prince of Xi Ling, and I only have one elder sister who dotes on me the most. But, this elder sister is too stubborn, her killing intent is too strong.

"Jin Er, I know I have let you and your son down. "But, forgive me, but don't hate me, okay?"
