Chapter 1626 The Old Man

Holy Tree City.

A large number of experts from the Prince's Mansion rose into the sky and flew rapidly towards the outside of the city.

Apparently the destruction of the restriction within the Daohu Consciousness Sea has alarmed the prince, and someone has been sent to investigate.

After the people from the Prince's Mansion left the city, a pale woman stumbled out of a dark alley, it was Shi Xuanji.

She raised her head and looked at the retreating figures: "Since these people have been dispatched, it seems that the Prince's Mansion must have stepped up its vigilance."

"After these people find out that Daohu is dead and was killed by the third prince, the prince will probably start investigating various parts of the palace."

"After all, only the top brass of the Prince's Palace know about Daohu's mission, and there are even fewer people who know that he is coming back today."

"So Daohu was suddenly killed by the third prince. Anyone's first reaction must be that there is a spy around the prince."

"I must return home as soon as possible, otherwise once it is discovered that I am not in the princess's house, all these years of hiding will be in vain!"

Shi Xuanji took a deep breath, endured the severe pain in her body, and used her escape technique to escape into the ground.

But suddenly a surge of blood surged in her chest and abdomen, and her mana surged left and right in her body like a wild horse, causing her previously suppressed injuries to explode.

"Damn it, why did the Feathered Immortal Veins get out of control again at this time?"

Shi Xuanji's face turned ugly, and she quickly returned to the alley and sat down cross-legged, trying to suppress the injury again.

But she didn't know if it was because she had used the Feathering Immortal Veins too much to resist the sword tiger's self-destruction before. At this moment, she couldn't control her magic power, let alone suppress the injuries.

The constant collision of energy, blood and magic power made Shi Xuanji's injuries more and more serious, her body became weaker and weaker, and even her consciousness gradually became blurred.

Her eyes became more and more blurred, and her body sitting cross-legged became softer and softer, and she gradually fell to the ground.

The dark alley was as lifeless as a ghost land.

The cold ground continued to suck away the remaining heat from the body.

"Am I going to die here today?"

Shi Xuanji was extremely unwilling.

But the gradual passage of life left her unable to struggle at all, and she could only watch the world in front of her become increasingly blurry and darker.

In a daze, a flash of light suddenly broke through the darkness, giving Shi Xuanji a sudden warmth in her desperate heart.

She opened her eyes happily, and vaguely saw a house in the alley opening the door, and then a white-haired old man came out holding a lantern.

"Whose girl is this? Why is she lying on the ground and falling asleep?"

"Girl, girl, what's your name? Where are your family members?"

"Why don't you speak?"

"Oh, why are you so hot? It seems you are sick. Come on, come on, hurry up and follow me into the house."

"You are lucky. I own a medical clinic, and it is the only medical clinic in this area. If you fainted in front of someone else's house, they would not be able to save you."

Shi Xuanji listened to the old man's nagging talk, but she didn't feel irritated. Instead, she felt more and more peaceful.

It seemed that the old man's words had a magical power to calm people's hearts.

Shi Xuanji was still awake, only vaguely conscious.

She felt like she was carried into the house by the old man, placed on the bed, and then some pill was stuffed into her mouth.

This elixir has a fragrant smell, just like the legendary elixir, and melts in your mouth.

A vital warm current flowed down the chest and abdomen, flowing through the eight extraordinary meridians, soothing the serious injury.

Shi Xuanji even felt that the warm current of this elixir smoothed down her restless mana and blood, and even the mutated feathered immortal veins became calm.

What a powerful elixir!

Shi Xuanji was amazed in her heart and wanted to open her eyes to see who the old man was who had such a pill. Didn't he look like an ordinary medical doctor?

But she didn't know why, even though her injuries were gradually recovering, she couldn't wake up.

There seemed to be some kind of force that was always suppressing her consciousness.

"No, I can't sleep there. I have to go back to the Crown Prince's Mansion quickly. Otherwise, if someone finds out that I'm not in the Crown Princess's room, everything will be over."

Shi Xuanji struggled hard in her heart, but her consciousness became increasingly blurred, and finally a wave of sleep came over her, causing her to completely lose consciousness.

I don't know how long it took, but suddenly there was a knock on the door, and Shi Xuanji suddenly woke up from her sleep.

She sat up from the bed suddenly, only to find that her injuries had completely recovered, and she didn't feel any inconvenience at all.

She quickly looked around and was even more shocked, because she had actually returned to the princess's house.

"When did I come back?"

"I clearly remember falling into a coma in that alley, and then...then an old man seemed to save me?"

"No, if I was rescued, I should be in that old man's home. Why am I in the Prince's Mansion?"

"Could it be that I was just dreaming before, but how did I recover from my injuries?"

"And how did I come back?"

Shi Xuanji's face looked uncertain.

Suddenly the princess's voice came from the back room: "Qingluan, go and see what happened?"

"Yes, Princess!"

Shi Xuanji accepted the promise and quickly stood up to open the door. She saw a group of guards from the Prince's Palace standing outside the door.

Among the many guards, the prince stood with his hands behind his hands. The one who just knocked on the door was the prince's personal eunuch.

Shi Xuanji hurriedly went out and saluted: "Meet His Highness the Crown Prince."

"Well, was the Crown Princess disturbed?"

The prince asked calmly.

Before Shi Xuanji could speak, the voice of the princess came from the room: "I'm fine, prince, what happened in the mansion?"

The prince's party said calmly: "Nothing serious, Dao Hu was killed outside the city. I was worried that thieves would sneak into the mansion to cause chaos, so I sent people to guard the princess."

"Dao Hu is dead?"

The princess' voice was full of shock: "When, where, who did it?"

"It was in the woods a hundred miles outside the city, it should be around Chou time, as for the person who did it..."

The prince's tone suddenly became gloomy: "According to the report of the people I sent to investigate, the initial judgment is that the person who did it should be Lao The third prince sent him. "

"The third prince, is it him?"

The Crown Princess snorted: "Why, is he impatient?"

"Hasn't he impatient for a long time?"

The Crown Prince sneered: "Of course, he is not the only one who can't wait, so we have to continue to investigate whether the third prince did this today."

"Every one of my brothers could be the one."

"The Crown Princess, please continue to rest. Don't worry about this. I will handle it myself."

"In addition, this team of guards will stay to prevent thieves from plotting. I have something to do, so I will leave first."

"The Crown Prince should also be careful." The Crown Princess instructed.

"Yes!"

The Crown Prince nodded and turned to leave.

The team of guards dispersed and surrounded the entire yard, vigilantly guarding the surroundings.
