This shouldn't be happening!
Fang Yuhan knew very well that the Blood Dragon was no small threat. Even the most powerful practitioners at the Extinction Realm would be killed instantly by the dragon if they weren't prepared.
How did Su Ming manage to do this?
As Fang Yuhan was still thinking, a loud shout came from outside.
"Everyone, gather at the main peak immediately!"
"The Emperor's son has been assassinated, and the crime is unforgivable! Anyone who dares to hide for any reason and not appear in the main hall will be instantly sentenced to death!"
With this shout, figures flew out from the Divine Transformation Peak, one by one, heading toward the main peak.
Suddenly, someone asked, "What about Fang Yuhan?"
"Take him along!"
"This kid was disrespectful to the imperial son the other day. He could very well be the murderer. We can't let him escape!"
Then, footsteps started to approach.
Fang Yuhan's face changed drastically.
This is bad!
With his current condition, he couldn't hide anything. Anyone with sharp eyes would immediately know he was behind these events.
Could it be... that I'm truly done for?
"What should I do? How do I escape?"
Fang Yuhan panicked. The Yellow Spring Diagram was now uncontrollable, and he couldn't use it. His energy and vitality were draining rapidly, and he couldn't even escape.
Could it be that I'm going to die here?
At that moment, with a sharp sound, something was thrown into the room and landed at Fang Yuhan's feet.
"This is... a teleportation talisman?"
Fang Yuhan was overjoyed and quickly picked up the jade talisman.
"Who is it?"
He looked around, but there was no sign of anyone.
Fang Yuhan hesitated. Could this be a trap?
Outside, the footsteps were getting closer.
Fang Yuhan's face grew darker, and his hand, holding the teleportation talisman, was trembling.
Seeing that the door lock was about to be undone, Fang Yuhan gritted his teeth and made a decision.
Forget it!
Whether it's a trap or not, staying here means certain death!
"Use it!"
He activated the teleportation talisman with a snap, and suddenly a powerful suction force surged from the talisman.
It pulled at Fang Yuhan's entire body, causing his blood to burn violently, and he screamed in pain.
But then, the teleportation talisman took effect, and Fang Yuhan's figure disappeared from the spot.
As the door lock clicked open, two disciples froze, their faces changing dramatically.
"Fang Yuhan escaped!"
"He's definitely the murderer!"
An incense stick later.
"This residual blood fluctuation is indeed the Blood Mountain Ancestor's Blood Escape Technique. Fang Yuhan has definitely inherited the Blood Mountain Ancestor's legacy!"
Master Yuhua stood at the small courtyard, his face darkened.
"I must kill him by my own hands this time!"
His mind was filled with killing intent. This kid had inherited the Blood Mountain Ancestor's legacy, infiltrated their sect, and committed such a heavy crime!
"Everyone, spread out and capture him. We must not let Fang Yuhan escape!"
Orders were given, and disciples of the Yuhua Immortal Sect began to move, starting to hunt down Fang Yuhan.
With Master Yuhua's command, the Yuhua Immortal Sect's disciples rushed in all directions.
Meanwhile, Su Ming sat leisurely in the Imperial Palace.
Soon, the system's prompt sounded.
[Ding! Fang Yuhan has become the target of everyone, his reputation is shattered, and he is now fleeing. His luck value is decreased by 200 points.]
[Fang Yuhan's luck value is now below 100 points, losing his title as the Child of Luck.]
Hearing this, Su Ming's eyes lit up, and a smile spread across his face, like a maniac devil.
Finally, it has come.
At this moment, Fang Yuhan's panel changed.
[Child of Luck: Fang Yuhan]
[Secret Treasures: Steelfiend Pestle, Golden] [Guardian, Dragon Profound Killing Technique]
[Luck Core: Yellow Spring Diagram]
[Luck Value: -100]
[Current Kill Rewards: Yellow Spring Diagram (Gold), Steelfiend Pestle (Blue), Dragon Profound Killing Technique (Blue)]
A series of items were marked.
Su Ming's gaze locked onto the "Yellow Spring Diagram," and he stood up.
"Alright, it's time to reap the rewards."
He walked outside, and Fang Qingxue stood there with a worried expression.
"Qingxue?"
Su Ming raised an eyebrow. "What are you doing here?"
"Prince...."
Fang Qingxue sighed in relief when she saw Su Ming. "I'm so glad to see the prince is unharmed."
"But..."
A touch of guilt appeared on her face. "It's all my fault. If not for my actions, Prince wouldn't have been put in such danger."
"Why would you say that suddenly?"
Su Ming looked at her.
"If it hadn't been for my plea to save Fang Yuhan that day, Prince would never have been attacked by him."
Fang Qingxue lowered her head, her voice full of regret.
"Qingxue is willing to accept any punishment."
*Thud*
With that, she knelt down.
When she first heard that Su Ming had been attacked, Fang Qingxue was extremely anxious. Later, she learned that Fang Yuhan had used the Blood Mountain Ancestor's famous escape technique to flee.
At that moment, worry, guilt, and anger filled her heart.
If it hadn't been for the Prince saving Fang Yuhan that day, Fang Yuhan would surely have died, and Prince would not have been in danger like today.
She was deeply remorseful and had come to ask for Su Ming's forgiveness.
"This matter has nothing to do with you."
Su Ming smiled faintly and helped Fang Qingxue up.
"Fang Yuhan hid too well. Even you didn't notice his scheme. There's no need for you to blame yourself."
"But I was still wrong..."
Fang Qingxue's expression was serious.
"It's fine."
Su Ming said lightly, "His attack means nothing to me. You don't need to feel guilty anymore."
"T-Thank you, Prince."
Looking at Su Ming's sincere face, Fang Qingxue was deeply moved, her eyes turning red.
At that moment, the sound of footsteps approached.
"Prince, now is not the time for this. There will be many more opportunities in the future."
"Master Yuhua asked me to tell you that they've found Fang Yuhan's whereabouts."
Qin Yingluo stood by, glancing at the close interaction between the two, her voice a little somber.
"Oh?"
"Perfect."
Su Ming smiled and said, "Let's go. It's time to meet the descendant of the Blood Mountain Ancestor."
His smile was enigmatic, as if he had some whole different plans of his own...
