Hide And Cultivate In The East Palace, Only To Find The Prince Is A Girl-Chapter 39: Contingency Plan

A black shadow turned out from the ground without warning and stopped in front of him. When the black light on its body dissipated, it revealed the appearance of the evil spirit.

It looked at the guards at the door unruly. There were silver needles in each of their chests. They were empty and lifeless. They looked like they had just died. As long as they pulled out the silver needles, their corpses immediately fell to the ground.

"How ruthless! You even killed your own people."

"If I don't do this, how dare you stand here openly?"

"Hmph!" The evil spirit was very unhappy.

"The Snake Girl is inside?"

The Snake Girl was the soul that controlled Princess Fenghe.

"If you don't come over soon, she'll eat the souls of the criminals."

"Take me there!"

Wu Lizhi led the black-robed man inside.

The evil spirit had taken two steps when it stopped again. Seeing his confusion, it pointed at the guards at the door. "No matter how small a mosquito is, it's still meat. We can't waste it like this."

It opened its mouth and swallowed. A terrifying suction force came and domineeringly swallowed the guard's soul.

It licked its mouth, looking as if it hadn't had enough. "It tastes a little bad!"

Wu Lizhi's face was cold. "You only have fifteen minutes!"

He ignored it and went in.

The evil spirit followed.

In the dungeon, the head of the prison and the jailer remained as if they were mechanical. They stood and sat with silver needles in their chests. They had all been killed.

"To think you're the right vice minister of the Ministry of Justice. You're inhumane and killed everyone!"

Sensing its aura, the Snake Girl rushed out of the depths of the cell and devoured so many souls, including many with powerful souls. Its cultivation increased and it broke through to the late-stage Earth-grade.

"Why are you only here now?"

"Something happened to the plan. Xia Shimin is more difficult to deal with than I imagined."

"I'll leave half for you. Swallow their souls. It's enough to take a step forward. Go over quickly! I'll guard here."

The evil spirit was about to rush deeper into the cell.

Wu Lizhi took a step back and gave up his spot. Seeing this, the evil spirit stopped and remained vigilant. They were only cooperating and using each other. Now that the cooperation was completed, they could fall out at any time.

The black-robed man stepped forward and raised his head, which had been bowed. His eyes were bright, like dazzling gems blooming with a blue luster, but his words were cold. "The mission is completed. You deserve to die!"

The evil spirit flashed and stood side by side with the Snake Girl. Boundless soul power bloomed from their bodies, shooting out a huge aura. "We dare to work with you. Aren't we afraid that you'll burn the bridge after crossing it?"

The aura of a tenth-level Great Grandmaster emitted from the black-robed man. A supreme aura blocked their soul pressure and suppressed it, occupying an absolute advantage.

"We dire beasts all have innate divine powers, and my Flying Serpent Race is the king of dire beasts. We're as famous as True Dragons, Phoenixes, and so on. Our innate divine powers are even stronger. The talent that the two of us awakened is called—Heavenly Constellation Escape. If we use it together, even if you set up a large array here, you won't be able to stop us! In addition, I've recorded our previous transaction with the voice-recording stone. As long as you dare to attack, when we escape from here, we'll hand the voice-recording stone to Xia Shimin or copy hundreds of copies and throw them all over the capital. What do you think the outcome will be?"

Wu Lizhi's expression was ruthless. He took a deep breath and looked at them coldly.

If looks could kill, he would definitely light a sky lantern and torture them to death!

"You still want her to do it now?"

Looking at the black-robed man, he sensed his gaze and pondered for a moment. Then, he shook his head. He did not expect them to be members of the Flying Serpent Race.

He did not have full confidence in blocking the innate divine power of such a race.

Once they escaped, all their previous efforts would be wasted, and countless resources would be wasted. 𝐛𝗲𝗱𝐧𝐨𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝐜𝐨𝐦

The Crown Prince would not let this go. He would definitely investigate thoroughly. Although he was very careful, he was still afraid of leaving clues.

The evil spirit mocked, "Stop wasting time. Half of the fifteen minutes have passed. If you delay any longer, the people changing the defense will come. You'll be the ones in trouble."

The black-robed man looked at Wu Lizhi. The latter's palms were clenched tightly as he glared at them, but there was nothing he could do. He lost. "You won!"

"What a waste of time."

Proud, the evil spirit rushed deeper into the cell.

Bang!

With a golden flash, Zhang Ronghua appeared in front of it. The golden light emitted condensed into a substance, and it collided with it. There was a metallic clang that forced it back. Before it could react,

he grabbed domineeringly. It could clearly see him, but it could not react. Under its terrified gaze, he grabbed it. A powerful soul power emitted from his palm. It was not something it could resist at all. Under this soul power, its body quickly shrank and in the blink of an eye, it was sealed into an egg-sized soul bead and lost consciousness.

He put away the soul bead and glanced at them. "Your turn."

Wu Lizhi's expression changed drastically. He did not expect the evil spirit to be incompetent and attract the Crown Prince's people. He knew this person in front of him. His name was Zhang Ronghua, a Colonel who had been expanded by the Flood Dragon Guard. He was at the fourth level of the Grandmaster realm.

However, from the way he attacked just now, even the black-robed man could not subdue the evil spirit in one move. He had definitely hidden his cultivation. He still had a bolder guess in his heart. Was everything they did under the Crown Prince's surveillance?

He made up his mind and acted according to the plan in advance, cutting off all clues.

"Kill him!"

The black-robed man put on the Sky Silkworm Golden Silk Gloves solemnly. He did not dare to hold back at all. His strong internal strength condensed in his hands. "Soul Extinguishing Myriad Poison Palm!"

Dozens of dark green palm prints, each one a foot and two inches long, contained terrifying destructive power and carried poison as they slapped over violently.

The Snake Girl was already scared silly. She could not care less about saving her companions and used her innate divine power to escape underground.

Wu Lizhi was a ruthless person. He took out his dagger and wiped it on his own neck.

The original plan was that after getting rid of the evil spirit and the others, he would also be exposed. At that time, he would commit suicide and cut off the clues, preventing the Crown Prince from investigating. With Zhang Ronghua interfering, he could only attack in advance.

"Anyone can die except you."

He took a step and appeared in front of him. The black-robed man wanted to stop him, but an afterimage flashed and he could not catch up.

Wu Lizhi had just raised the dagger when his arms were crippled. A big forceful bag slapped his face roughly, shattering all the teeth in his mouth and dropping to the ground. He could not even bite his tongue to commit suicide or crush his poisonous teeth.

His vision darkened and he fainted.

'Finish him.'

Zhang Ronghua threw a punch from afar. The Black Yellow True Essence broke all the palm shadows of the black-robed man and killed him.

Looking at the Snake Girl whose half of her soul had burrowed into the ground, his soul power condensed into a large hand. He suddenly grabbed it and lifted it out, sealing it into a soul bead.
