Chapter 257: Chapter 256: I am the First Princess sent to save you

How could Qi Fang possibly let the warriors from Canghai Sky Palace leave?

This place was specifically used by the Qi Wangfu to imprison the descendants of various princes and kings. If he allowed the warriors from Canghai Yuntai Palace to leave, wouldn’t this place be exposed once they spoke of it?

At that time, more than six hundred Military Marquises, assembling over fifteen million troops, would have been enough to level the Qitian Mountain Range in an instant.

Then, all the plans of Qi Wangfu would have gone down the drain.

Therefore, for the sake of the grand scheme, Qi Fang clearly understood that anyone besides the people from Qi Wangfu, any warrior who stepped into this dungeon, had to die.

Even if Yi Han were eloquent today, he couldn’t have changed Qi Fang’s mind.

The warriors of Canghai Yuntai Palace, seeing these soldiers ready to take action, suddenly looked horrified, urgently asking Yi Han, "Senior Brother Yi Han, what should we do now?"

"What else can we do, fellow junior brothers and sisters, follow me and fight a bloody path out!"

"Fight our way out!"

Yi Han drew his weapon, roared furiously, his face fierce.

"Good, let’s fight our way out!" The warriors of Canghai Yuntai Palace collectively unleashed their powerful combat potential.

Qi Fang, seeing Yi Han taking action, his eyes suddenly cooled, ordered, "Release!"

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh——

The soldiers on the wall released their bowstrings.

The sharp arrows were like a torrential rain, densely shot towards the ground.

Each arrow seemed to possess the power to pierce the heavens and earth.

"Sea Layered Wave Fist!"

"Dispelling Clouds Palm!"

"Dripping Water Sword Skill!"

"Kill them!"

...

"Ah ah ah ah..."

"Senior Brother Yi Han, save me!"

"Save me!"

"I’ve been shot, Senior Brother Yi Han, save me, save me, I don’t want to die, I don’t want to die!"

After a brief confrontation, the arrows shot from the soldiers in the high ground instantly killed more than a dozen warriors from Canghai Yuntai Palace, and all of them had cultivation of the Heaven Martial Realm First Layer.

Seeing his junior brothers and sisters falling into a pool of blood at his side, Yi Han’s eyes also turned blood red.

Turning his head to see Qi Fang standing on the wall, with a ridiculing smile, Yi Han was filled with rage, bellowing, "Qi Fang, fight me!"

"You want to fight me? Good, I also want to see, whether the warriors of Canghai Yuntai Palace have three heads and six arms!" Qi Fang sneered, leapt from the wall, and attacked Yi Han.

Immediately, Qi Fang and Yi Han began a fierce fight.

The soldiers halted firing arrows, took out their war blades one after another, and rushed onto the battlefield.

A fierce battle broke out in the dungeon.

But the instigator of this matter, Lin Bai, was subtly slipping into the battlefield.

But Lin Bai didn’t attract much attention and directly and quietly flew onto the iron cage.

"It seems the warriors from Canghai Sky Palace have invaded."

"These warriors from Canghai Sky Palace, they seem to have burst in unconsciously, unaware that this is where we are imprisoned."

"It’s over, Yi Han is done for this time. These hundred plus warriors from Canghai Sky Palace, they are all going to die here."

"That’s right, even if they have the cultivation at the level of Heaven Martial Realm First Layer, they can’t resist the onslaught of over a thousand soldiers. Moreover, every one of the Qi family’s soldiers is a seasoned warrior from the battlefield!"

Many princes and princesses, seeing this scene, were deeply worried.

Naturally, they hoped that the Canghai Yuntai Palace would be victorious, which would allow their rescue.

But this thought seemed far too naive, how could over one hundred people from Canghai Yuntai Palace resist the prime force of over one thousand soldiers from the Qi Family Army? It was obviously impossible!

"Are all the princes and princesses alright?"

As Chu Jiangliu was watching the great battle on the ground below, a gentle voice sounded in his ears.

Chu Jiangliu turned in surprise to see a white-robed youth leaning on the iron cage, looking at him.

This person was Lin Bai.

"Who are you?" Chu Jiangliu exclaimed.

Lin Bai smiled lightly and said, "Princes and princesses, do not worry. I am here by the orders of the First Princess to rescue you all."

"The First Princess?"

"Does Your Highness know we were caught by Qi Wangfu?"

"Are you truly sent by the First Princess?"

When these princes and princesses heard that Lin Bai was sent by the First Princess, Bai Xiaoxiao, they were overjoyed.

Lin Bai nodded and said, "Yes, the First Princess received a secret order, heard about the significant movements of Qi Wangfu in the Qitian Mountain in recent months, worried that something might happen in the Imperial Hunting Garden, so she specifically found me and entrusted me to keep watch on the movements of Qi Wangfu."

"Furthermore, she specifically instructed me that if any prince or princess were to fall into hardship, I must come to the rescue. She, Bai Xiaoxiao, would remember this kindness all her life."

Lin Bai stated calmly.

Lin Bai’s words were calm, as if he was merely recounting Bai Xiaoxiao’s words.

But such plain words, heard by these princes and princesses at this moment, deeply touched their hearts. Many princes and princesses were even moved to tears.

Chu Jiangliu was also touched, his eyes brimming with hot tears, "We, the Chu Royal Mansion, will surely repay the kindness of the First Princess. If I, Chu Jiangliu, am fortunate enough to escape today, the Chu Royal Mansion will forever follow the lead of the First Princess!"

"The kindness of the First Princess, my Lin Royal Mansion can never repay. In the future, we are willing to fight for the First Princess for our whole life, guarding our Shenwu Kingdom, with rivers and mountains forever solid!"

"First Princess... Thank you for sending someone to rescue me..."

"First Princess! First Princess!"

Many princes and princesses began to weep.

Seeing the state of these princes and princesses, Lin Bai smiled faintly.

Bai Xiaoxiao had never ordered Lin Bai to do any of these things.

Probably Bai Xiaoxiao didn’t even know that all the princes and princesses who entered the Imperial Hunting Garden had been captured.

Lin Bai was doing this entirely to win a favor from Bai Xiaoxiao.

Nowadays, these princes’ and princesses’ fathers, many of them feared the power of Qi Wangfu, some had even begun to waver, leaning towards Qi Wangfu.

But now, if Lin Bai could save them in the name of the First Princess.

Then, when these princes and princesses returned and told their parents about what had happened in the Imperial Hunting Garden, even if they wanted to lean towards Qi Wangfu, they probably wouldn’t be able to face it.

On the contrary, the person who rescued their children was Lin Bai, who was sent by the First Princess.

These princes and kings would undoubtedly be grateful to the royal family and the First Princess.

At that time, their stance would also be more clear.

And doing so was all beneficial and harmless to Lin Bai.

Firstly, the First Princess Bai Xiaoxiao was a friend of Lin Bai’s. After knowing the precarious situation of the royal family, it was only natural for Lin Bai to help Bai Xiaoxiao with a small favor and give her a small gift.

Secondly, the young prince of Qi Wangfu, Qi Rui, originally intended to kill Lin Bai. Lin Bai disrupting all of Qi Wangfu’s plans also made Lin Bai extremely happy.

Thirdly, Lin Bai was a man of Martial Art, who neither got involved in politics nor participated in the power struggle of the kingdom. The favors of these princes and princesses, and even the princes and kings, were useless to Lin Bai. It would be better to give this favor to Bai Xiaoxiao.
