Paralyzed on the ground, the sixth princess remains shivering like a pitiful weak being that she was.
Against that tearful face, even the guards in the surrounding area couldnât help but be moved.
Nevertheless, Di Cang was expressionless like nothing the girl did would change his mind. Heâs like the controller of life and death, a god that decides the fate of all others.
âYour Highnessâ¦.â
Seeing the gloominess in the lordâs face, the guardâs heart instantly sank and knew thereâs no turning back. Shaky in his legs, he staggered over to the sixth princessâs side.
âForgive my offense then Princess.â
After saying this, the guard immediately drew his sword from the waist. Against the cold gleaming light of the blade, the princessâs heart went from alarmed into a full panic.
âYou dog, donât you dare touch me!â
In front of Di Cang she would still cower in fear, but in front of a dog bestowed upon the Sovereign Prince by his royal father, thereâs no way she would back down.
âPrincess, subordinate here donât want to do this either, but the consequences of not following His Highnessâs order is a fate more terrifying than death.â
âYouâ¦â
She wants to counterattack out of anger, but as soon as she tried, a cold and unsurmountable pressure causes her body to freeze like its being crushed under a mountain.
âAh!â
Just as the guardâs blade was about to cut down at the girlâs finger, the princess abruptly makes a loud horrendous scream and fainted away.
In her lower part, a sour odor permeates the air as urine quickly stained her dress and the floor underneath.
Now itâs the guardâs turn to freeze. Since the princess had already fainted away, heâs wondering if he should still continue.

At the thought, he turns around to seek approval from the lord. But as he did, the purplish figure with silver hair had already left, leaving nothing behind but a cool breeze attacking their unnerved selves.
âSo what do we do now?â The other guards anxiously asked after getting up.
âFirst throw princess out of here. Someone is bound to bring her back to the palace.â
âDonât you think thatâs not very good? The girl is still a princess. We should at least send her backâ¦â
The guard instructed by Di Cang to chop off the finger casts a disdainful glance at his companion: âAre you dumb? You want to offend His Highness instead? Although the one to send us here is His Majesty the King, but our master now is the Sovereign Prince. Besides, after todayâs incident with the sixth princess, thereâs no way we can return to that side.â
Perhaps, this is the reason the lord had them do this todayâ¦. The guard murmurs this to himself.
A good guess, but in actual truth the guard was overthinking the matter. Di Cang could care less if these guards would side with him.
If a man doesnât even have the royal family in his eye, then why should he care what they thought of him?
He just didnât want to dirty his hands.
Thatâs all.
â¦â¦
Somewhere else at the same time on a bustling street.
A certain Bai Xiachen was currently standing at a street corner, his arms still holding a baby white tiger.
âLittle Rice, are you sure the bad womanâs daughter will appear here?â
The bad woman mentioned by the boy would of course be Yu Rong, and the one they are waiting here for would be Bai Zhi, the youngest daughter.
âI personally witnessed those people entering the restaurant. I suspect they will be out soon enough. Little Master, how are you going to get even with that girl when you find her?â
âYou donât have to worry about that. Your only job is to ruthlessly scratch the girl when we find her!â
Waving his small little fist, Bai Xiachen wanted to portray a mighty and threatening appearance. Sadly, no matter how one looked at it, itâs the super cute type that causes others to pinch his cheek in adoration.
Rolling his tiger eyes, Little Rice attempts to protest at the demand: âI am a white tiger, not a cat!â
