In a blink of an eye, a month has passed.

There are only the last five days left before the wedding day of the third princess Shangguan Wan and Jiang Yucheng.

Logically speaking, everyone should be happy for such a great day that celebrates the whole world.

However, the atmosphere in Xiling City was a bit inexplicably gloomy and depressing.

Even the always lively streets are much deserted.

This is because recently, a series of strange things have happened one after another in Xiling City.

——The disciples of many sects have disappeared inexplicably recently.

The most important thing is that they are all geniuses of the original meridians of the Earth Sutra!

At the beginning, three of Lingyun Sect disappeared. Although everyone was surprised, they only thought that they had offended someone they should not offend, which caused such a disaster.

In addition, after the third princess sent the Black Cavalry to support her, this incident never happened to Lingyun Sect again, and everyone did not take this incident to heart.

But this peaceful life was broken soon.

Because the same thing began to happen to other sects!

Those who have had an accident are basically ranked in Xiling City, with a few geniuses who can make their mark but are not top sects.

For example, existences like Longya Mountain have always been safe and sound.

On the contrary, those with similar levels to Lingyun Sect began to encounter accidents one after another.

When more than five geniuses of the Earth Meridian Original Vein in Xiling City were missing, everyone finally realized that things were much more serious than they thought!

The other party is clearly trying to pick such people!

Although these sects have strengthened their vigilance and searched for clues everywhere, they have never found anything.

Moreover, often after losing one or two people, the other party will change to another sect, and the whereabouts are irresistible.

What powerful person can do these things quietly?

Thinking about it makes your spine chill!

For a time, almost everyone in Xiling City was in danger.

No one knows whether it will be his turn next!

Especially those young practitioners who have the original meridians of the Earth Sutra are even more anxious.

Even though they have outstanding talents, their strength is limited now and they have not yet grown into real strong people. How can they deal with these things?

Although the third princess has sent Mu Qinghe and others to thoroughly investigate the matter, the murderer has not been found and there is almost no progress.

Therefore, even if the wedding date of Shangguan Wan and Jiang Yucheng is approaching, the sky in Xiling City seems to be shrouded in a layer of shadow.

......

Royal Palace.

Jiang Yucheng walked straight to Huayang Palace.

His face was expressionless and his aura was cold all over his body, which made many palace people feel intimidated and bowed in a hurry.

Jiang Yucheng ignored these people and headed straight to the main hall.

Chanyi was guarding the door and saw Jiang Yucheng coming, and bowed:

"I've seen the eldest son."

Jiang Yucheng asked coldly:

"Where is Your Highness now?"

Cicada Yi said:

"Your Highness got off the morning court today and came back to rest. He was taking a break at this time."

Jiang Yucheng didn't say anything, and he raised his foot and was about to go in.

Chanyi immediately stepped forward and stopped him, with a polite tone, but her expression became a little more firm.

"Young Master, Your Highness has been busy with all the matters of the wedding recently, and has to deal with all the big and small things in the court. He has not been able to rest well. Now that he has finally fallen asleep, please let her rest first. If there is anything, what should I tell you?"

Jiang Yucheng sneered.

"She is really so tired? Why don't this young master know?"

There are all kinds of complicated matters in the wedding, Yuwen Wei took people from the Ministry of Rites to do it. At most, she only said a few words and gave her own opinions.

And he is even more involved in many affairs in the court.

Shangguan Wan seems to be busy, but in fact she hasn't done anything. Why is she tired?

Chanyi heard that Jiang Yucheng had a bad tone and frowned in her heart.

There are only a few days left before the wedding. Why did Jiang Yucheng suddenly come to trouble Your Highness at this time?

"Young Master, Your Highness really doesn't make it convenient to see you at this time, you still-"

"presumptuous!"

Jiang Yucheng shouted angrily.

"But a little maid dares to stop me five times and again? Chanyi, you have been with the third princess for a long time and are highly valued. Could it be that you think you are the master now? "

A hint of panic flashed across Chanyi's face and she immediately knelt down.

"I don't dare! I just want to do it for Your Highness-"

"Cicada clothes."

At this moment, Shangguan Wan's voice suddenly came from the room.

"Let Yu Cheng come in."

Chanyi suddenly felt relieved and said quickly:

"yes!"

After saying that, she lowered her head:

"I know my mistake. Please——"

Jiang Yucheng narrowed his eyes, walked past her, and pushed the door open.

"Cicayi, go and receive the punishment yourself."

"yes!"

Chanyi then got up, closed the door carefully, and knelt down in the courtyard.

When the other palace servants serving Huayang Palace saw this scene, they did not dare to approach, so they had to discuss it privately.

"What's wrong with the eldest son? Is it so popular today?"

"Who knows...but it's definitely not a trivial matter! When the eldest son came before, he had never been so rude to Chanyi? On the surface, this was to punish Chanyi, but in fact it was to slap His Highness in the face!"

"That's it! Who doesn't know that Chanyi is the most trusted confidant of His Highness... There are only a few days left for this big mess, and somehow suddenly makes such a fuss..."

"Shh! Stop talking, be careful that the disaster comes from the mouth! Let's go! It's gone!"

All the palace ladies serving in Huayang Palace are smart and know what to say and what not to say.

Therefore, Jiang Yucheng didn't care whether what he did just now would be rumored.

And he can't stand it anymore now!

Walking into the room, Shangguan Wan was sitting in front of the dressing table.

After she came back, she planned to take off the mask, but when she heard that Jiang Yucheng was coming outside, she had to put half of the mask on again.

When Jiang Yucheng came in, he caught a glimpse of the shocking wound on half of her cheek.

It has been so long since, and the injuries on Shangguan Wan's face have not improved at all. In some places, they are still festering from time to time, looking very ferocious.

Jiang Yucheng frowned unconsciously.

After a moment, Shangguan Wan had already posted it and turned her head to look over.

From this point of view, her face was as smooth as before, no different from before.

But Jiang Yucheng knew what her real face looked like under the mask, and he looked even more awkward at this time.

But Shangguan Wan seemed to have not noticed it. Seeing Jiang Yucheng's anger that had not yet faded between his eyebrows, she frowned and asked tiredly:

"What do you want to do when you come here so aggressively? Let me say first, I am very tired now, but I don't have much energy to deal with you. If there is nothing important, let's talk about it another day."

Jiang Yucheng sneered.

"Don't you know the best why you are tired?"

Shangguan Wan paused.
