The flower branch and other objects were stained with their blood. The resentment passed through them and grew larger and larger.
Yan Wan glanced at the cold young Emperor and this time, she knew who the saviour was. She tugged on Su Suâs clothes and sobbed, âLady, save me!â
Su Su stopped Gan Baiyu and said to Yan Wan, âHurry up and run.â
All the Daoist priests had died. If something also happened to Yan Wan, the resentment would only grow stronger and stronger. When it grew to a certain point, it would be able to seize the flood dragonâs body.
Gritting her teeth, Yan Wan turned around and ran, trying to leave the way she came, but several Night Shadow Guards quietly appeared in front of her.

Yan Wan retreated back to Su Suâs side in fear.
Su Su gritted her teeth and dragged her along to avoid Gan Baiyuâs blade.
The bladeâs Qi cut off a strand of Yan Wanâs hair and she was too frightened to cry out. The Night Shadow Guards surrounded them.

If Su Su wanted to kill her, she couldnât even resist, so Yan Wan could only gain the initiative by striking first1.

Tantai Jin sneered.
It was unknown whether he was sneering at Yan Wan or Su Su.
Su Su remained silent, but she wasnât too bitterly disappointed. She already clearly knew what kind of person Yan Wan was when they were still in that room together. She was selfish, and cunning.
A golden thread silently appeared and binded Su Su and Yan Wan. Before Su Su could react, it had pulled them backwards.
Su Su bumped into a hot embrace, and the person who caught her was caught off guard and hastily pushed her away, ashamed and angry.
Su Su stood firm and observed for a long time before she reacted, âLord Pang?â
It was actually Pang Yi Zhi.
Pang Yi Zhi glared at her and let out a âhmphâ.
Behind him stood a man in a sky blue brocade robe. Surprisingly, it was Xiao Lin.
Seeing Yan Wan who flew over, Yu Qing kicked her away and she rolled several times on the ground, her face twisted in pain.
Yu Qing smiled and said, âYoyoyo, I didnât do it on purpose. Itâs just that lady, youâre really repaying kindness with enmity2. Iâm afraid that if I help you, Iâll be stabbed by you. Iâm just a weak scholar, so how will I be able to withstand a stab from the lady?â
Hearing his words, Yan Wanâs face instantly flushed, her face reddened then paled, knowing that this group of people had seen what she did just now.

Su Su snorted with laughter.
âThird Lady Ye, are you alright?â Xiao Lin asked.
Su Su shook her head.
Tantai Jin squinted his eyes and looked at them, âYouâre all seeking death.â
Xiao Lin calmly said, âItâs uncertain to whom the deer falls3.â
Behind Xiao Lin, a gentle-looking woman stepped out. Su Su ripped the golden thread off herself and found that it was actually Ye Bing Shang.
As soon as Ye Bing Shang walked out, several peopleâs eyes fell on her.
She fretfully glanced at Tantai Jin, then at Su Su, âThird Sister.â
Su Su nodded at her, which was considered as greeting her back.
Tantai Jin looked at Ye Bing Shang and imperceptibly frowned.
âHostage Prince, the flood dragon of Mo River had no hatred or enmity with you, so why do you insist on turning it into a demon and awakening it?â Ye Bing Shang asked Tantai Jin.
Tantai Jin didnât reply. Facing Ye Bing Shangâs accusation, he wasnât even angry, and was unexpectedly good-tempered.

The young man was born with good looks, and the way he pursed his lips and didnât speak looked innocent and pitiful. As if everyone else were the bad guys and were coming to besiege him.
Ye Bing Shang softly sighed. Thinking of the hostage princeâs difficult past, the words of reproach couldnât be spoken. She took out an item that looked like a piece of white scale armour from her sleeve.
As soon as it saw the glowing scale armour, Curved Jade cried out in surprise, âHow is this possible!â
âWhatâs wrong?â Su Su asked.
Curved Jade had lived for a long time and was always steady. It had never lost control of itself like this, and Su Su couldnât help but stare at that piece of scale armour.
The scale armour was emitting a dazzling light, and one could see that it wasnât an ordinary item.
âWhat is that?â Su Su asked with curiosity.
Sheâd read many books in the library, including ones about the appearances of many divine weapons, but sheâd never seen this kind of scale armour before.
It was the size of two palms, more lustrous than jade, with dazzling light and faintly visible golden lines.
Seeing Su Su looking at it with a fixed gaze, Curved Jade returned to its senses and vaguely said, âItâs a type of divineâŠâŠ demon beastâs heart protecting scale.â
Su Su: âIt looks amazing. It must be the heart protecting scale of a very powerful demon beast.â

Curved Jade: âYou can say so.â
Su Su had heard that for items like the heart protecting scale, most demon beasts would rather die and turn them into flying ashes than easily leave them behind. Therefore, particularly little was known about the heart protecting scale. But, she wondered, how could Ye Bing Shang, a mortal, have this kind of treasure that could rarely be found in ten thousand years? Was it because of this piece of heart protecting scale that the Nightmare Devil haunted Ye Bing Shang last time?
The heart protecting scale flickered in Ye Bing Shangâs hand. She faintly smiled and said to Xiao Lin, âWangye, itâs in the clam in the flood dragonâs arms.â
Xiao Lin nodded, also revealing a faint smile.
Tantai Jinâs eyes were obscure. Glancing at the clam shell in the flood dragonâs arms, compared to the massive flood dragonâs body, the clam was really too inconspicuous, pathetically insignificant and ordinary.
However, for Xiao Lin to come looking for it, it must be extraordinary.
Su Su looked left and right and asked Pang Yi Zhi, âWhat did King Xuan come to look for this time?â
Pang Yi Zhi glanced at her and coldly let out a âhmphâ.
Su Su knew that this lord who had a crush on Ye Bing Shang didnât like her, so she didnât bother him anymore.
Instead, seeing she was about to walk away, Pang Yi Zhiâs mouth uncontrollably said, âThere is a relic4Â that can restrain demonic creatures inside.â
Su Su looked at him in surprise.
Pang Yi Zhi looked away, âAnyway, that thing can deal with Tantai Jinâs tiger demon.â
Both Tantai Jin and Xiao Lin coincidentally came to the Mo River. One wanted the demon flood dragon and other wanted the relic. For a moment, the situation turned very tense.
Seeing Su Su looking at him, the corners of Pang Yi Zhiâs mouth curved upwards and he clearly explained how Ye Bing Shang found him and asked him to bring her to Mo River to find Xiao Lin.
Pang Yi Zhi spoke to her in a low voice. Afraid of being heard by the people of Zhou Kingdom, he leaned very close to her.
Su Su sensed a cold gaze staring at her and she subconsciously looked towards Tantai Jin, only to see him clearly looking at Ye Bing Shang.
