After a brief exchange, the two reached an agreement.
Wu Heng took out a Slavery Contract from his Space Ring and said, “Get ready.”
The Princess's complexion turned even paler, and although her eyes still held reluctance, she knew this was her only chance to live.
Biting her teeth, she nodded.
Wu Heng picked up her fallen sword, gently wiped it on his finger, and fresh red blood dripped directly drop by drop.
He tore open the scroll and pressed his blood-stained finger onto it.
The scroll absorbed the bloodstain, pulling at a strand of Wu Heng's spiritual power, penetrating her brow, and branding onto her soul.
A pattern appeared on the woman's brow and quickly disappeared.
The contract was complete.
The Princess's face, along with her lips, turned even paler.
“Release her now!” Wu Heng said.
Bella emerged from the other's body, and the Princess's body seemed to lose its support, slightly wobbling.
This was clearly different from the demeanor she had when she first entered, sword in hand, ready to kill enemies.
Wu Heng flicked his finger, shooting a pill into her mouth, then said, “Let's sit and talk!”
With the contract achieved, under the rules' constraints.
The Princess could no longer harbor enmity towards Wu Heng in her heart.
Cautiously standing up, a sense of respect appeared in her eyes.
After sitting down opposite him, she directly asked, “My lord, you should be able to reveal your identity now, right?”
Wu Heng removed his mask, revealing his true face.
The Princess looked him up and down, her eyes filled with puzzlement and confusion.
Human, and so young!
“Are you the Prince of Celt, Lu An?”
Wu Heng was startled, “You don't recognize me?”
The Princess looked even more puzzled, “Have we met?”
Alright!
It seems not everyone in Black Stone Town knows me.
Wu Heng introduced himself, “My name is Wu Heng, Lundham City, which the Second Prince attacked, is my territory.”
“So, you killed him for this matter and not because you accepted the Crown Prince's hiring?” the Princess raised her eyebrows.
“He kept harassing Lundham City and even arranged for a level 18 assassin to attempt to kill my people; he had to die for Lundham City to ever find peace,” Wu Heng said.
The Princess looked somewhat helpless and said, “He struggled with the Crown Prince for so long, only to die at your hands.”
Wu Heng didn't speak, nor did he want to discuss this matter further.
He directly asked, “How did you discover me?”
“By the address, and also your manner and tone are completely different from his. If you had just shown your face and left, it might not have been a big problem, but if you intended to manage the city in his guise, it would have been easy for those officials to discover, especially Chief Minister Edwin, who used to be a teacher to the Second Prince,” the Princess reasoned while speaking.
Listening, Wu Heng nodded and said, “Summarize your thoughts, and later tell me how I should slip by unnoticed.”
“Now?”
“Prepare first, I need to go out for a while. When I return, I need everything ready,” Wu Heng continued, “If anyone comes, remember to cover for me.”
The Princess's brow was tightly furrowed.
Somewhat unable to understand him, still pretending to be the Second Prince, and now going out.
“I won't just become a vegetable right after signing the contract with you, will I?”
Wu Heng smiled, “That depends on how well you cover for me.”
The Ghost merged into the body, sharing the location outside.
Wu Heng released the Teleportation Technique, the Array formed, and his figure disappeared.
The Princess widened her eyes, staring blankly at the spot where he had vanished.
Was he a Mage?
Such a close distance, easily dodging his own attacks!
It seems she had been out of touch with the outside world, not knowing there was such a person.
Knock, knock, knock!
The door knocked, and a servant's voice arose.
“Your Highness, the bath is ready.”
The Princess opened the door and said, “His Highness is resting, do not disturb him.”
“Yes,” the servant answered, bowing his head.
The Princess gently shed her clothes and walked into the bathroom.
Outside the city, in a deserted forest.
Glowing green eyes peered through the bushes, closely watching the figure on the road.
“Uncle, where are you going in the middle of the night?”
“Back to Nirali City to check,” Wu Heng said.
“Which city?” Xiao Xiao asked.
Bella answered, “The city we came from.”
“Oh, Sister Bella can remember it! Why can Uncle remember it too?” Xiao Xiao muttered while leaning on Wu Heng's shoulder.
Wu Heng said, “I need to set the destination for the Phantom Train; otherwise, I wouldn't want to remember.”
“Hey, I'm just tagging along with uncle, I don't like using my brain.”
Bella pouted, “You two really are becoming more and more like father and daughter.”
Distance was put between them and the city.
Wu Heng put on the Train Captain's Hat and boarded the train.
He wrote Nilar City on the itinerary.
The doors closed, and the train vanished.
Nilar City, the wilderness.
The pitch-black night, heavily pressing down on the wilderness outside the city.
Tap tap tap!
The hurried and disordered footsteps tore through the deathly still night.
An army clad in armor, wielding steel blades, surged like a torrent of black water, swiftly crossing the dirt roads.
Swoosh!
A Ranger quickly doubled back from up ahead.
Standing beside the army's commander, he saluted and reported, “Sir, the enemy has stopped at the rocky area ahead, it seems they have no intention of fleeing.”
The iron-clad commander, with a murderous look in his eyes, coldly inquired, “How many?”
“Still three people.”
“Any ambushes or traps?”
The Ranger hesitated for a moment, then said, “So far, we haven't spotted anyone hiding in the shadows, nor any signs of traps.”
The commander nodded, loudly commanding, “Those assassins are already weary. Slow down, walk and rest simultaneously, get ready for the final battle.”
The army no longer advanced swiftly.
Rather, they continued in formation while recovering their strength.
They were determined to leave no enemy behind.
The troop approached the rocky area.
From afar, they could see three robed figures ready for combat.
One wielding a longsword, another with both a long and a short sword, and the last woman, her arms concealed under her cloak, her weapon unseen.
“Kill! Leave none alive!” the commander bellowed.
His voice boomed like a bell across the barren wilderness, resonating, and the troops in the woods immediately charged forward.
Kill!
The battle cries erupted all around, with the army surging up the slope.
Behind the army, three level 18 commanders also drew their waist-bound weapons.
Looking at each other, they too charged into the fray.
Suddenly, the air filled with cries of battle and the sounds of combat.
In the distance, the Phantom Train stopped.
Wu Heng stepped down from the train.
No sooner had his foot touched the ground than he heard distant battle cries and the glow of orange-red torches.
With a frown, Wu Heng released Ghosts, saying, “Bella, go see what's happening over there?”
Bella nodded and instantly flew out.
Wu Heng also walked in that direction.
On the way, Bella returned and reported, “The army is surrounding and attacking those assassins, just up ahead.”
“Has it been going on since daytime?”
“Seems so, it should be settled by tonight,” Bella replied.
“How many high-level professionals?”
“Six! Three robed assassins remain, three level 18 professionals in the army, five level 15, and around a hundred elite soldiers.”
“Let's go take a look,” Wu Heng continued forward.
As they neared the battlefield,
the sounds of shouting and fighting grew clearer.
The clash on the battlefield intensified.
“Uncle, what do we do next?” Xiao Xiao asked quietly.
“Charge right in.”
Wu Heng spoke while casually opening the Mansion Skill.
Pointing to Shanshan and Kai Xiu inside, towards the distant battlefield, “Go, target the high-level professionals first.”
Hum!
Shanshan transformed into a streak of light, bursting forth and rapidly flapping her wings, turning into a nearly three-meter tall massive Skeleton mid-journey.
Her gigantic horns forward like a cannonball.
She charged directly into the battle zone, colliding with two level 18 fighting professionals.
Both sides were momentarily startled.
Caught off guard, their bodies were flung back, crashing into the rocky piles behind, sending up clouds of dust.
The combatants, as if a pause button had been hit,
stared in astonishment at the sudden appearance of the massive Skeleton and the two level 18 professionals sent flying.
