Third-person POV   While Hong er was running towards Meiyun, a thin needle


    pierced Hong er''s nape. Her brow twitched, she plucked the needle from her nape


    and threw it to the ground. Her vision became blurry and she started to stagger


    in her walk.   Meiyun coughed out a mouthful of blood. She glared at the BZ


    soldier in front of her and slashed off his head with her sword ring.   Meiyun: "Your Majesty Empress, stay at where you are."   Meiyun grabbed the sword that penetrated through her


    stomach. Her hands glowed with her Qi and snapped the hilt from the blade. She


    didn''t pull out the blade as she was afraid that she would suffer blood loss.   Meiyun: "This servant will protect you with her life."   Meiyun stood protectively in front of Hong er.   BZ soldiers: "Kill the servant. She is heavily injured, she


    won''t be able to move that much."   The BZ soldiers mercilessly charged towards Meiyun. Without


    budging from her spot, Meiyun commands her sword rings with her Qi. She could


    repel the attacks and kill some of them, nevertheless, she was heavily injured.   The more she moves, the wider her injury it gets. Her vision


    also started to get blurry from the excessive bleeding. She glanced over her


    shoulder and saw Hong er helplessly laying on the floor. Meiyun crawled towards


    Hong er and anxiously asked.   Meiyun: "Yo-Your Majesty Empress, are you hurt anywhere?"   Hong er was sure that the needle which pierced her nape had


    drug in it. She could only sleepily stare at Meiyun as she couldn''t move her


    lips because of the drug. Meiyun''s attention was on the fight while her right


    hand was searching for Hong er''s pockets.   After a few seconds of fumbling, Meiyun finally found a few


    bottles in Hong er''s right sleeve. She took the bottles out from Hong er''s


    sleeve and glimpsed at it to make sure that it was potions.   She opened the bottles and turned her body around to help


    Hong er to drink the potions. As the situation was in chaos, Meiyun wasn''t as


    gentle as usual in pouring the potion into Hong er''s mouth and caused some of


    the potion to leak out from the corner of Hong er''s lips.   Hong er''s could barely see anything as her head was spinning


    around as if she was drunk. She felt a warm liquid dripped on her cheeks. She


    forced her eyes open and tears instantly poured out from her eyes.   A stream of blood flowed out from Meiyun''s lip as she stared


    at Hong er with dead eyes. The hand that was holding on the potion bottle


    dropped to the side. Behind of Meiyun was a man with his sword stabbed through


    Meiyun''s heart.   Hong er gritted her teeth and growled in agony. She couldn''t


    scream, she couldn''t move, she is miserable. To helplessly watch her beloved


    sister got stabbed right in front of her eyes almost caused Hong er to lose her


    sanity.   She glared at the man with her glowing golden eyes. The man


    indifferently stared back at Hong er and smirked, he pulled out his sword and


    kicked Meiyun''s body to the wall across the room.   More tears streamed down Hong er''s cheeks as her golden eyes


    also glowed brighter. The man frowned as he felt something was not right with


    Hong er''s glowing eyes.   He crouched down beside Hong er and grabbed her hair then


    made her face Meiyun who was laying lifelessly on the floor with a sword still


    in her stomach.   Man: "See? That girl over there. Isn''t she the wife of


    General Di?"   The man leaned his lips on Hong er''s ear.   Man: "Even if I can''t kill him, at least his wife is dead."   The man laughed maniacally. Hong er quietly moved her hands


    so her fingertips touch the floor.   Man: "That f*cking Liu and Xu dogs always ruin my plans!   You think that I forgot the day your father came to our


    palace and killed all my family! Do you know why I survived? DO YOU KNOW WHY?!   Your beloved father told me that we need the next ruler


    because he just killed the current one. He just left me, a hopeless child


    alone, in the middle of the corpses of my family!"   The man screamed at Hong er''s face. Hong er saw his face and


    her lips curled into a grin. Of course, she knew who he is. He was the youngest


    prince of the previous family that ruled Bei Zhou, Bataar.   Since Xu Tingfeng annihilated his family as an act of revenge for Hong


    er''s slavery, he was left alone with a burden of ruling Bei Zhou.   Seeing that chance, the king of a tribe in Bei Zhou tricked


    him and became the new ruler of Bei Zhou. Meanwhile, he was demoted to the


    lowest rank in the nobility, Count.     Whilst Bataar was roaring at Hong er about how her family


    had killed his family and made him lived a miserable life, Hong er''s fingertips


    that was touching the floor, dimly gleamed with her Qi.   None of them noticed her action, however, when Bataar got


    into the topic of who was the mastermind, Hong er keenly listened to him.   Bataar: "That woman would happily sleep with anyone as long


    as she got what she wanted. What a sl*t. She thought that she was smart enough


    to use me. Thinking about betraying me, let see who will win in this game."   Bataar knocked Hong er''s nape with his hand and tossed her


    to the ground.   Bataar: "Take her and get out from here."   BZ soldiers: "Yes!"   Bataar''s subordinate tied Hong er with magic sealing rope so


    that she couldn''t use her magic when she woke up. Bataar walked towards Meiyun


    and kicked her head.   He left after getting no reaction from Meiyun. Ah Tong and


    Ah Xi who was still fighting the ceaseless BZ soldiers shocked to see Hong er


    was in BZ soldiers'' hands. They wanted to save Hong er from their filthy hands,


    yet, they couldn''t.   They have so many deep injuries on their bodies, also they


    have to fight off the BZ soldiers who kept attacking them. Just as Ah Xi turned


    around to run to Hong er, his shoulder was stabbed.   He swung his claw across their faces, splitting their heads


    into three pieces. Ah Xi ran towards Hong er despite the numerous stabs that he


    got, yet, his steps became slower and slower. He aimlessly swung around his


    claws. The ground was painted with their and enemy''s blood.   Out of nowhere, he was pushed to the ground by someone. He saw


    an arm fell beside him, he stared at the arm and felt familiar. Then his eyes


    widened in shock when he saw the bracelet around the arm.   Ah Xi: "A-Ah Tong…"   He turned around and tears trickled down from his eyes. Ah


    Tong swung his halberd with his remaining hand.   Ah Tong: "Get up! We won''t die here! Her Majesty Empress


    need us!"   Ah Xi gritted his teeth and summoned a dagger. He filled the


    dagger with his Qi and threw it at the soldier that was carrying Hong er.   The dagger went through his brain and immediately killed the


    soldier. Hong er dropped to the ground together with the soldier.   Ah Xi: "Your Majesty Empress!"   Ah Xi sprinted towards Hong er just to be kicked by Bataar.   Bataar: "F*cking Xu pest. Quick pick her up!"   Another soldier swiftly went to pick Hong er up and


    continued to walk away. Bataar and his subordinate left the scene in leisure


    while Ah Xi and Ah Tong were fighting off the soldiers that remained.
