Liu Sanniang looked at Xia Hongming and said calmly, “With you or without you, I am destined to confront the empress.”

Xia Hongming looked at Liu Sanniang in a daze. “Miss Liu, do you mean that the empress is a great evil?”

Liu Sanniang nodded.

Xia Hongming looked at Liu Sanniang with a complicated expression, not knowing what to say.

He thought that Liu Sanniang was invited by his mother to look for him, which was why she was targeted by the empress.

But now, Liu Sanniang told him that it had nothing to do with him. She just wanted to get rid of evil. As long as the empress was evil, Liu Sanniang would be around. It was not because of him.

Xia Hongming said softly, “Anyway, thank you, Miss Liu.”

When Xia Qiluo stepped into the prison, she checked the cage and took back the key. She looked at Liu Sanniang coldly and said, “You didn’t run, and you’ll never have a chance to run again.”

Liu Sanniang closed her eyes and did not say a word to Xia Qiluo. Her cold attitude made Xia Qiluo furious.

Xia Qiluo’s eyes darkened and she gritted her teeth. Then, she turned around and left like the wind.

Xia Qiluo returned to the palace and gave the key to Xu Ran and Xu Qing.

Seeing the key, Xu Qing was stunned. “When did I lose the key? I didn’t notice it at all.”

Xia Qiluo said, “I don’t know who wants to break into the prison, but Liu Sanniang didn’t run away at all. Shifu, will I…”

“You won’t.”

Before Xia Qiluo could finish, Xu Ran said firmly. He did not allow Xia Qiluo to doubt herself again.

Xu Qing also said, “There are eyewitnesses and evidence. It can’t be wrong.”

Xia Qiluo suppressed the doubts in her heart and became confident. “My father will attend the trial. He trusts her very much. I will definitely rip off her mask and let everyone see her true colors.”

Liu Sanniang was the thorn in Xia Qiluo’s side. As long as Liu Sanniang was not defeated by her, this thorn would always be there. Only by stepping on Liu Sanniang could Xia Qiluo completely get rid of the thorn.

Xu Ran and Xu Qing nodded.

Xia Qiluo said gently, “Shifu, I’ll leave first. The trial will begin in three days. I have to be well-prepared.”

To Xia Qiluo, Liu Sanniang was a tricky opponent. She did not dare to let her guard down. She could catch Liu Sanniang, but she could not be smug so early. She had to prepare well.

Therefore, the trial in three days would be a tough battle.

Xia Qiluo mobilized twice as many people to guard Liu Sanniang to prevent her from being saved.

Even if they wanted to break into the prison, they could not.

When the key was sent back, Xu Qing took it away and said, “Tell your master to stop doing useless things.”

The masked assassin said coldly, “Is there no other way? If the Third Prince doesn’t die, there will always be trouble in the future.”

Xia Qiluo had sent so many people to guard the prison. It was no longer possible to break into the prison to kill Xia Hongming.

Xu Ran and Xu Qing did not care. Xu Ran’s expression was cold. “If you can’t kill him, that’s because you don’t have the ability. Stop doing useless things. Leave.”

He gave the key to the assassin, but he failed. This proved that he was incompetent.

The assassin turned and left.

In the majestic palace, several black shadows silently whooshed through the air, leaving only the shadows of the trees swaying.

The empress’s expression was dark. “Useless. What’s the point of keeping you?”

The empress did not expect Xian Fei to know so much and even have a trick up her sleeve. If not for the fact that she knew that Xia Hongming was lucky enough to escape and that Liu Sanniang left the capital to find Xia Hongming, she would not have known that Xian Fei was pretending to be crazy.

Since Liu Sanniang decided to go against her, the empress naturally would not sit back and do nothing. Not only did Liu Sanniang have to die, but Xia Hongming, who came back alive, also had to die.

But now, she had failed several times. Xia Hongming was not dead, and even Xian Fei was not dead. The empress was in an extremely gloomy mood.

The assassin retreated.

The empress felt a little uneasy. She reached out and rubbed her forehead to suppress the anger in her heart. When she looked up, she saw a black-robed figure sitting on the table. The empress’s heart skipped a beat. She quickly stood up and knelt down. “My lord, this Liu Sanniang is a stumbling block. If we don’t get rid of her, I’m afraid she will ruin your plan in the future.”

The man’s entire body was shrouded in a black robe, and the wide brim of his hat completely covered his face. “I know.”

The empress continued, “My lord, if you do it yourself, you can definitely get rid of her. Why do you have to let her grow stronger?”

Liu Sanniang was growing. When she first entered the capital, she was not even a threat. If they did not get rid of her now, it would only become harder and harder to get rid of her in the future.

The black figure tapped his knuckles on the table. “The chosen one is Immortal.”

The empress was shocked. “Is she really the chosen one?”

The black figure chuckled and said with a sneer, “Try to kill her a few times and you’ll know the answer.”

The empress gritted her teeth. “Then how can we get rid of her?”

The black figure said coldly, “Just let her give up on her life.”

The empress looked up in disbelief. “Is it that easy?”

Destroying a person’s will to live shouldn’t be too difficult.

Liu Sanniang was immortal, but she also had weaknesses. She also had people and things she cared about. The empress felt that she could use Liu Sanniang’s family to threaten her. However, when she heard the black figure’s cold laughter, the empress lost her confidence.

If it was that easy, Liu Sanniang would not even be a threat.

The black figure said coldly, “Have you done what I instructed you to do?”

The empress nodded. “It’s already done.”

The black figure stood up and walked up to the empress step by step. His black boot gently lifted the empress’s chin and he said coldly, “If you’re indignant, go and try to kill her.”

The empress said firmly, “Yes, my lord.”

The black figure turned around and left, disappearing in front of the empress. The empress’s eyes were cold. If she could absorb the soul of the chosen one, she might be able to become an immortal in one go..
