Thanks to Miss "Heart as vast as the sea" for the reward, muah~
******************************
The original owner still underestimated the other party’s cold-bloodedness and cruelty.
When her movements became increasingly inconvenient and it was just about a month until childbirth, one night as she was preparing to rest, a sweet and cloying scent suddenly filled the room. By the time she reacted, it was too late. Before she lost consciousness, she knew she had been tricked, and indeed, when she woke up, she was already tied up tightly.
The person she once regarded as a good husband now had a face full of ferocity.
At this moment, the original owner had calmed down, quietly looking at the Third Prince.
She knew that revenge was hopeless.
The Third Prince, who was also the Crown Prince, smiled and said, "You went out on the day of my grand wedding, didn’t you? In that case, I can’t leave you alive."
The Crown Prince naturally had always had someone monitoring her, and although she left quietly that day, she was discovered.
That man obviously knew she would find out something, so he had to act first.
After all, the original owner was somewhat famous back then, and he valued his own little life very much.
He was the Crown Prince; how could he risk his life!
The original owner’s belly was forcibly cut open, and the child was taken out—a daughter—whom the Crown Prince directly threw to the ground, killing her instantly.
The original owner’s eyes were red, watching everything, her eyes turning red, yet she was powerless. Her heart was filled with endless hatred, but she could do nothing, eventually bleeding to death.
Li Shuning gasped and opened her eyes.
The Third Prince was indeed ruthless.
"Eldest Sister, you can eat now, come quickly."
"Coming." Li Shuning walked over.
The junior brothers and sisters who followed out were also miserable. After being plotted against, each one protected the original owner and the Third Prince as they left, covering the rear, and ultimately, they were all killed, with their heads cut off.
The little junior sister was still quite lively, and young.
At this moment, she handed a rabbit leg to Li Shuning: "Eldest Sister, this is really delicious, you should try it, Second Senior Brother’s cooking is really good."
Li Shuning took the rabbit leg, took a bite, and it was indeed not bad.
Everyone ate their fill and assigned people to keep watch at night. They all prepared to rest.
After all, there was nothing much in this world for entertainment, and some had to get up at midnight to keep watch.
Li Shuning also leaned against the tree trunk to rest.
In fact, she was merging her cultivation.
She had arranged to keep watch at midnight. In the storyline, it was after midnight when the Third Prince and his group secretly approached.
After spending some time, Li Shuning had merged her cultivation.
This body itself had Inner Strength, and combined with her cultivation level, it’s likely that even the peak Heavenly Level martial artists in this world are not necessarily Li Shuning’s match.
One should know that Li Shuning also possessed spiritual power.
When the time was almost up, Li Shuning opened her eyes and replaced the two junior brothers. She kept watch alone.
With her strength, there was no need for others to help.
Li Shuning sat in the darkness, her spiritual power highly concentrated.
Sure enough, she heard footsteps.
Li Shuning drew out her whip.
"The young master should be nearby," the guard following the Third Prince said in a low voice.
"Hmm, be careful everyone."
Soon a group of people gradually approached Li Shuning and them.
At this moment, the whip in Li Shuning’s hand suddenly lifted and fiercely swung, creating a pit on the ground not far away.
The few junior brothers and sisters sleeping here were directly awoken by the commotion.
The Third Prince and his group were also startled, the giant pit was right in front of them.
Seeing torches light up not far away, they naturally saw a woman holding a whip, her pink face filled with menace.
"Who are you, skulking around?" Li Shuning said coldly.
The Third Prince knew of Li Shuning’s reputation and didn’t expect the other party to be so formidable, producing such a large pit with just one strike. If she had hit someone, they would probably have been killed instantly?
The Third Prince hurriedly said, "Don’t misunderstand, don’t misunderstand, we are just passing by. Earlier, we encountered a pack of wolves and barely escaped, so we are a bit frightened and cautious, please don’t misunderstand, Miss."
Li Shuning looked coldly at the Third Prince, then sneered: "Keep your distance from us."
The Third Prince felt aggrieved but knew he couldn’t lose his temper, still speaking humbly: "Miss, can we follow you? We are relatively weak..."
Li Shuning looked at the other with a faint smile.
The Third Prince inexplicably couldn’t continue speaking.
After thinking for a moment, the Third Prince said: "Miss, I am not a person of the worldly society, I have just admired the heroes of the martial arts since childhood, their chivalry and justice impress me greatly. I heard about a recent martial arts tournament, so I secretly brought the household guards to experience it."
Li Shuning showed a mocking smile: "Young master, Dragon City is not a place you can go as you please. I advise you to return home early, this place is not suitable for you. I’m sorry, but please leave quickly, otherwise don’t blame me for being impolite."
The little junior brothers and sisters all looked at their senior sister with admiration, how impressive!
Senior Sister is so domineering.
The Third Prince wanted to say something more but saw Li Shuning raise her whip, her brows showing impatience, and he got somewhat afraid. This damned woman, so unyielding, truly hateful.
Sooner or later, sooner or later, he would make this woman pay the price.
The Third Prince left with his people, embarrassed.
Li Shuning retracted the whip.
The whip in her hands was very obedient, quickly coiling back to her waist. A casual glance would not reveal it as a whip, it looked like a decorative belt instead.
After Li Shuning put away the whip, the little junior sister suddenly rushed over, Li Shuning was slightly taken aback but instinctively hugged her.
The little junior sister’s face was flushed: "Eldest Sister, you are amazing."
Li Shuning couldn’t help but laugh and cry. If she were a man, hugging the little junior sister would be fine, but she was a woman, and now she was holding the little junior sister, who was looking up with admiration, her face flushed, it felt quite peculiar.
Li Shuning released the little junior sister, affectionately ruffling her hair: "Little Junior Sister, work hard, one day you might be even more amazing than Senior Sister. Father said your talent is the best among everyone here."
The little junior sister was excited: "Really, really?"
Li Shuning chuckled, giving a light pat to the little junior sister, who seemed to taste honey, blooming into an incredibly radiant smile.
No one thought Li Shuning was cold and heartless.
People in the worldly society have their taboos. Quietly approaching someone’s resting place during late-night hours is indeed taboo.
After that, it calmed down, everyone rested well, and the next day, they continued their journey to Dragon City with full energy.
On the way, they encountered the Third Prince and his group once again, and it almost turned into a confrontation, but after that, they didn’t bump into them anymore.
They safely reached Dragon City.
