Chapter 5101: 5.0853 Wishful Thinking

"Is this Crown Princess perhaps an idiot?"

If she had simply stayed put in the carriage, a group of hidden guards would have protected her, and they wouldn't have been able to approach her so easily.

But now, she had foolishly jumped into their encirclement. Even if all of them were later scattered, they would still be able to get closer to the little Crown Princess in the chaos.

As long as they seized this key person immediately, all difficulties would surely vanish, and all problems would be solved!

The black-clad assassin's eyes flickered. He gritted his teeth, endured a palm strike from a hidden guard, and quickly retreated dozens of steps. Using the momentum, he leaped onto the roof and, with a few swift movements, chased after the direction the Crown Princess had fled.

Seeing this, Pearl became anxious and cried out, "Chase her quickly!" She then led all the hidden guards to jump onto the eaves, treading on the roof tiles as they swiftly pursued the little Crown Princess.

They chased each other across the rooftops for a long while.

Until the little Crown Princess suddenly stopped.

At that moment, the bright moonlight streamed down like silver threads through her hair.

It was as if a moon-white veil had been draped over the small figure, making her look dreamily beautiful.

She stood on the eaves of a palace corridor, expressionlessly watching the black-clad assassins who were struggling to catch up. A hint of mockery flashed in her cold eyes.

This King Duoluo, already imprisoned, would still play such a foolish move, sending these people to capture her? Did he truly underestimate Qiao Mu that much?

Or perhaps, this was merely an incomplete assassination plot. King Duoluo might have invited "Heaven's Chosen" individuals to act with him.

In that case, the chances of success would surely increase significantly.

But unfortunately, "Heaven's Chosen" had probably seen through King Duoluo, deeming his usefulness low and his significance minimal. So, they did not participate in this operation.

They let King Duoluo lead a group of small fries to cause trouble in the Empress's inner courtyard, whether they turned things upside down or not, it wouldn't cause much of a stir anyway.

It was truly pathetic; even his allies had completely abandoned him. A faint coldness curled Qiao Mu's lips as her gaze calmly fixed on the numerous black-clad assassins pursuing her.

Their eyes flickered slightly. When their gazes met Qiao Mu's, they instinctively flinched backward.

A profoundly unsettling fear rose from their hearts.

They hadn't even realized why such a negative emotion had arisen when they saw the little Crown Princess smile at them, expressionlessly.

Yes, it was that incredibly bizarre smile; it looked like she was smiling, but in reality, her facial expression hadn't moved an inch...

"Your biggest mistake was wanting to gang up on me," Qiao Mu said, casting a cold glance at them.

She was someone who always repaid grievances. If someone wanted to gang up on her, she would gang up on them right back, giving no quarter!

With that, Qiao Mu, with her blank little face, cried out, "Da Qing, Da Yuan, Xiao Xue, attack!"

As three roars echoed, the black-clad assassins, their expressions wary, revealed looks of shock in their eyes.

Suddenly seeing a green luan flying into the air and immediately unleashing a water spirit downward, to be honest, they felt a bit resistant...

A fight is a fight, but what's the meaning of summoning beasts all of a sudden?

Do they think these people don't have beasts by their side?

What a joke!
