Wen Qiong stopped shouting and stared blankly at the thing that fell from her mouth, then looked up at Kong Rui.

Kong Rui smiled as she grabbed Wen Qiong’s hand and placed her tongue on it.

At this moment, Wen Qiong’s hands were already numb. She waved her arms vigorously to shake off that terrifying thing!

Wen Qiong was unable to tell which part of her body was more in pain. She only wanted her mother to appear quickly and kill this despicable woman in front of her!

Kong Rui didn’t intend to delay for too long, although she had already used the Yin-Yang Umbrella to block the experts hiding in the dark.

Once something happened to Wen Qiong, the queen would definitely find out soon. At that time, she wouldn’t only face one or two experts!

Kong Rui planned to end thingds quickly, so she slashed around the knife in her hand quickly. Blood splattered everywhere.

Wen Qiong couldn’t see her current appearance, but the burning painful sensation on her face made her aware that she was disfigured!

Wen Qiong, who had always valued looks the most, was so distraught she almost fainted.

Kong Rui stuffed a pill that could keep Wen Qiong awake into her mouth. “This pill can help you last until the queen arrives!”

“I still need you to help me stall for time. Don’t think of causing trouble for me!” Kong Rui said as she grabbed Wen Qiong’s arms again and broke them.

This way, Wen Qiong wouldn’t be able to recover quickly, and she wouldn’t be able to tell the queen who had come to hurt her!

Kong Rui seemed to have suddenly thought of something and placed Wen Qiong’s favorite bronze mirror in front of her.

“I hope you like the gift I gave you! This appearance suits you the most!”

After settling everything, Kong Rui smiled at Wen Qiong. “I hope we can meet again in the future!”

With that, Kong Rui raised the Yin-Yang Umbrella again and quickly left.

As expected, as soon as Kong Rui left, the queen received the news and rushed to Wen Qiong’s palace.

After walking into the palace, the queen frowned at the mess.

Just as she was about to ask what was going on, she saw Wen Qiong sitting in the middle of the room in a daze, her body drenched in blood.

The queen’s eyes widened and she gasped as she rushed towards Wen Qiong.

At this moment, Wen Qiong couldn’t move at all. Tears flowed from her eyes and blood dripped down her face.

When the queen saw Wen Qiong’s condition, she didn’t know where to touch.

She screamed in fear, “How could this be?! Why did this happen?! Who did it?! Hurry! Go get a spiritual doctor!”

The queen’s eyes were filled with tears as she looked at Wen Qiong with heartache.

Wen Qiong could only sit on the spot and cry. The pain already numbed her senses and she was about to faint, but Kong Rui’s pill made her abnormally wakeful.

“Go! Call all the guards over! I want them interrogated one by one!” The queen arranged for someone to hire a spiritual doctor and instructed the palace servants to bring the guards from Wen Qiong’s palace over.

As for the experts hiding in the dark, they naturally appeared one by one and apologized to the queen.

Wen Qiong’s palace was in chaos. Spiritual doctors and experts had been called away, giving Kong Rui a chance to approach the back garden.

When she arrived at the place where she had sensed the little phoenix last time, Kong Rui released the little lion. “Let’s go save the little phoenix!”

Hearing Kong Rui’s words, the little lion was filled with excitement.

The two of them crossed the garden wall to the secret room.

A few guards were still guarding the place with serious expressions.

Just now, the people around the queen had summoned the spiritual doctor and a few experts to the princess’ palace. They wondered what had happened.

Right now, only the few of them were guarding the secret room. They couldn’t let anything happen to the little phoenix!

The few of them didn’t notice Kong Rui, who had come behind them with the Yin-Yang Umbrella.

Kong Rui grabbed a handful of purple powder and threw it at those people.

Before the guards could react, they had already fainted.

Kong Rui patted the remaining powder in her hand and said with a smile, “Kong Niang’s powder is really useful. It can poison a ninth-grade spirit beast in the blink of an eye, let alone these ordinary guards!”
