With her disheveled hair, stained clothes, and a face streaked with blood and tears, Mu Yaoyao looked worse than a beggar.

However, Princess Jun Wuxia was able to recognize Mu Yaoyao from the latter’s eyes and voice.

“Mu Yaoyao? Good gracious!”

Princess Jun Wuxia cried out in surprise. “You — what have you done to yourself? How did you…”

Granny Yue dropped to her knees at Princess Jun Wuxia’s feet, then spoke in a solemn tone.

“Your Royal Highness, I made a terrible mistake. I kicked Princess Mu before I could recognize her. I must be punished for what I did.”

Jun Wuxia waved her off. “You only did it to protect me and it was an instinctive reaction. You’re not to be blamed. Do get up.”

Granny Yue let out a breath of relief and rose to her feet.

Jun Wuxia turned her attention to Mu Yaoyao now.

Had Granny Yue kicked her that hard?

Was she going to have to apologize to the Mu family now?

Princess Jun Wuxia was still hesitating over the idea when Mu Yaoyao pointed at Feng Wu. “Your Royal Highness, it wasn’t Granny Yue’s fault. That woman did this to me!”

That woman?

Jun Wuxia followed Mu Yaoyao’s finger.

And she saw a girl standing there.

What a pretty girl!

Jun Wuxia had never met anyone this beautiful before!

She was as perfect as a picture, she had bright eyes and white teeth, and there was something ethereal about her. Just standing there casually, she was already stunning…

Especially her calm eyes and perfect composure. Jun Wuxia didn’t think she could find anyone with that same air.

She was so beautiful!

Growing up in the royal palace, where some of the most beautiful women on this continent lived, Princess Jun Wuxia was used to seeing pretty faces all the time.

However, she was still astonished by this girl!

Pretty girls tended to vie with each other even more in terms of appearance.

As soon as Jun Wuxia spotted Feng Wu, she tensed up and was combat ready!

“Who’s she?” Jun Wuxia asked in a displeased voice.

“She’s Feng Wu!” Wiping away the tears and blood on her face, Mu Yaoyao scrambled to her feet and pointed at Feng Wu. “His Royal Highness annulled his engagement to her!”

Her?

Of course Jun Wuxia knew who Feng Wu was.

Back then, Feng Wu was a nightmare to many children of her age, for she had set the bar too high.

Even the empress’s own daughter had been robbed of the spotlight.

The look on Jun Wuxia’s face turned grimmer.

Mu Yaoyao smiled viciously. She suddenly recalled a lot of things Jun Wuxia had done… to get close to Feng Xun.

Jun Wuxia and Feng Xun? Could that be it?

Hahaha! Feng Wu, you’re dead!

Mu Yaoyao stoked the fire. “Mu the Sixth called Feng Wu his sister-in-law just then, saying that Young Lord Feng was in love with her!”

WHAT?!

That set Jun Wuxia off right away!

Her already unkind eyes spat fire now. “Feng Wu, how dare you do that to Mu Yaoyao!”

Feng Wu had just turned into Jun Wuxia’s number one target.

Clever as Feng Wu was, she figured out right away when she saw the change in Jun Wuxia’s expression that thanks to Feng Xun, she had been framed yet again.

Feng Wu frowned. “Feng Xun and I are just friends.”

“Friends?!” Mu Yaoyao smirked. “Mu the Sixth called you his sister-in-law and you’re just the young lord’s friend? Feng Xun likes you so much that he wanted to bring you back to the imperial capital himself back in Northern Border City. Come to think of it, didn’t you come here all the way from the border city just for him?”

Mu Yaoyao kept stealing glances at Jun Wuxia as she spoke.

Good. Jun Wuxia’s face was livid. Trying to take the royal princess’s man away? Feng Wu had to have a death wish!

“Smack —”

Infuriated, Jun Wuxia raised a hand to strike Feng Wu’s beautiful face!

She was wearing decorative nail guards which were sharp enough to cut Feng Wu’s cheek open.

Mu the Sixth rushed out and pushed Feng Wu out of the way.

And he ended up being the one slapped.

Jun Wuxia was fuming!

Even Mu the Sixth was on Feng Wu’s side now?

“Granny Yue!” Jun Wuxia bellowed.

Granny Yue acted as Jun Wuxia’s bodyguard and she knew what the princess wanted even from the most subtle hint.

Hence, Granny Yue walked out from behind Jun Wuxia and locked her murderous gaze on Feng Wu!

Mu the Sixth shot Captain Zhou a warning glance, trying to get the latter to stop Jun Wuxia before she went berserk.

Zhou sent one of his men back to ask Lady Northern Feng for help.

Jun Wuxia smirked at Feng Wu. “You should always watch out for powerful connections, even if you’re hitting a dog. Granny Yue, take her!”

Granny Yue had been given to Jun Wuxia by the empress and she was a she-wolf!

Jun Wuxia had barely given her order when Granny Yue charged at Feng Wu like a tiger!

Feng Wu leaned back and dodged that strike!

Mu the Sixth rushed over and blocked Granny Yue’s way.

“Have you lost your mind as well?!”

Granny Yue grinned grimly. “Young Master Mu, please get out of my way.”

“No! Over my dead body!” Mu the Sixth knew that Feng Wu was someone Feng Xun wanted to protect and he was already blaming himself for suspecting her earlier. He wasn’t going to waver again!

With a wave of his hand, his men broke into a fight with Granny Yue!

However, Granny Yue was way too capable for Mu the Sixth’s men to fend off.

Mu the Sixth turned to Yan Yue for help. “Miss Yan Yue, could you get your boss down here, for Brother Feng’s sake?”

The head of World Tower never showed up in front of guests, but Mu the Sixth knew that Lou, the chief, was always stationed here.

Yan Yue frowned.

As a matter of fact, she didn’t like Feng Wu.

She didn’t know why, but she just felt that way, as one woman to another…

Hence, she shook her head. Chief Lou was too occupied with cultivation to pay attention to such a petty matter.

So, she wasn’t going to help. Exasperated, Mu the Sixth pulled Feng Wu to one side and whispered, “When you get a chance, jump out of that window. Quickly —”

Princess Jun Wuxia was too willful and unpredictable for him to handle. He feared that the princess would kill Feng Wu here today!

That could happen.

But Feng Wu only stood there calmly with her hands behind her back and looked unhurriedly at Jun Wuxia.

It was as if Jun Wuxia wasn’t a royal princess, but just another commoner.

Brushing off all the people standing in her way, Granny Yue lunged at Feng Wu and reached for her throat with her scrawny fingers!

“Screw you!” Chaoge shielded Feng Wu with her own body.

Thump —

But Granny Yue was still too powerful an opponent for Chaoge and the granny sent Chaoge flying backward with a sweep of her hand!

“Hm —” Chaoge grunted and spat out a mouthful of blood.

Granny Yue finally faced Feng Wu.

A cold light glinted in Feng Wu’s eyes!

It seemed that she wouldn’t be able to hide her cultivation ability anymore!

Just as Granny Yue raised her hand —
