Since they were Shadow Guards, they quickly regained their senses after their initial shock The guards felt their blood boil and were ecstatic. They held their breaths to listen to the flute again, confirming it was the sound the princess used to play on her flute.

It was a secret of the deceased royal’s mansion, and no one knew about it besides Lan Ruozhu, Lan Ruobing, and the Shadow Guards. It had been a long while since the guards had heard the princess’s flute.

They felt they could fight alongside the princess this time, but it was Su Binglan instead. They already had suspicions about her but would not say them aloud.

Since they guessed her identity was a secret, they were okay with keeping it in their hearts and would not expose their master’s true identity. The Shadow Guards remembered how hurt they felt when the princess passed ax,vay.

Therefore, they had to use all their might to protect Lan Ruozhu and Su Binglan.

The killing intent gradually approached the siblings, growing more potent by the second. Then the melody Su Binglan played on her flute changed, carrying a murderous intent.

The assassins hiding in the darkness burst forth one at a time and rushed toward the Su family’s house. However, the Shadow Guards simultaneously mobilized.

The night sky was dark, so Su Binglan circulated Soul Powers into her eyes. She could see everything under the night sky. She could sense movements in all directions, even without using her eyes.

She used her flute to coordinate with the Shadow Guards, commanding them to fight through various melodies. Then they could preserve their strength and eliminate the assassins at breakneck speed.

The assassins were from the same group—the Pavilion of Assassins. Su Binglan knew just by glancing at their clothes and observing their moves.

Previously, Su Binglan had interrogated one of the assassins, and he was about to tell her the truth about who hired them. However, someone hidden in darkness killed the assassin in question with a hidden weapon.

Su Binglan was concerned about Lan Ruozhu’s health then and did not have the time to kill the person in the darkness.

It seemed that person had reported the incident to the Pavilion of Assassins, so they sent more men to try and kill Lan Ruozhu again.

There were dozens of assassins, and several of them were experts. Even so, Su Binglan did not make a move. She only played her flute to command the Shadow Guards.

When Lan Ruobing trained the Shadow Guards, she also taught them to attack in various formations. Hence, they used these formations to deal with the assassins, swiftly killing them.

Endless power filled the Shadow Guards’ bodies as they listened to the flute. It was their battle intent and potent willpower. The assassins fell one by one, filling the air with the smell of blood.

Su Binglan ordered the guards to keep two assassins alive, then fed them medicine in her pocket dimension to get the information she initially wanted.

Then she entrusted some guards to protect her brother and some to clean up the scene, After all, she did not want to scare the villagers the following morning.

Su Binglan also gathered a few guards and planned to head out. She wanted to destroy the Pavilion of Assassins.

Knowing what his sister wanted to do, Lan Ruozhu’s expression drastically changed. “You can’t take that risk, Sister. I’ll arrange for someone else to do this. You mustn’t participate.”

He feared something terrible would happen to Su Binglan, revealing a panicked expression.

“Don’t worry, Brother. I’ll be fine.” Su Binglan knew her brother would be worried about her.

While speaking to him, she took the chance to insert a silver needle into one of his acupuncture points when he was not paying attention, putting him into a deep slumber.

Then she instructed Blue Eagle and a few guards to protect Lan Ruozhu while she led the other guards on a mission. Fortunately, she had prepared medicine and weapons in her pocket dimension.

A few days later, Su Binglan returned with the guards. The Pavilion of

Assassins, which had just risen in the martial world, was destroyed.

The Shadow Guards who had returned from their mission were incomparably excited. They looked at Su Binglan admiringly while Lan Ruozhu sighed in relief when his sister finally returned.

Lan Ruozhu could not bear to blame Su Binglan. He only said, “Next time, you’re not allowed to use my acupuncture points against me.”

“All right, I’ll listen to you next time, Brother.” Su Binglan smiled. “Have you been taking your medicine properly these past few days?”

On the night she left, she told Blue Eagle to take good care of her brother. She also told Su Wenxiu to brew medicine and perform acupuncture on Lan

Ruozhu daily.

“Don’t worry,” Lan Ruozhu said, “l always do as you say.”

He was also anxious to get better. He wanted to help his sister instead of her having to do everything alone,

Lan Ruozhu did not ask how she had destroyed the Pavilion of Assassins. After all, he knew she would tell him if she wanted to, and he would not have to ask. He was happy as long as his sister returned safely.

Su Binglan checked her brother’s pulse and found that he had improved. She happily said, “Your physique is fine, but you’re still slightly weaker than an ordinary person.

“It won’t affect your daily activities, but you must nurse yourself back to health to be in peak condition. You’ll be all the better in a month. You can celebrate the New Year by then.”

Lan Ruozhu was excited when he heard that. “Can I practice martial arts again after I get better, Sister?”

Su Binglan nodded. “Of course, you can.”

“All right.”

Su Binglan chatted with her family for a while after returning. She did not want them to worry about her, so she slept. After all, she had not rested well in days and used Soul Powers again. She needed to make up for it now.

However, she dreamed of Luo Jin’an again after falling asleep. This time, she seemed to have followed him and seen what he had done.

Su Binglan had drawn a portrait of a person who had deceived Tao Zhenggang and his wife. When Luo Jin’an saw that portrait, he knew the person was a spy from the enemy country.

Immediately after, Luo Jin!an took the person’s jade pendant and Su Binglan’s portrait and began investigating. These things were related to the battle at the border three years ago, so Luo Jin’an went there.

However, the border province was no longer the same. It had become a desolate land because of the fierce war three years ago. Crops and plants could no longer grow there, but some members of the Wei family army were still around the border province.

The Wei family army’s surviving members and Luo Jin’an’s trusted subordinates hid there, living in seclusion. These people only listened to one person’s orders—Luo Jin’an’s.

When he arrived, he quickly got someone to look for clues about the person in the portrait. Although the Wei family army was no longer around, their foundation remained.

Luo Jin’an used his hidden information network and quickly found some clues. He learned the person was from Chu Country, but his father was born in Beishao Country.

However, the person in the portrait had already defected to the enemy Beishao Country. The man had many false names, but his real name was Hong Tong, and he worked for the Hong Clan.

‘This person is the key. He must know who in Beishao is colluding with Chu Country’s officials.’

Hong Tong had concealed himself well. However, he exposed himself because of the jade pendant and the portrait Su Binglan had drawn of him.

Luo Jin’an’s men quickly caught him, but the mission simultaneously exposed
