The Fortunate Demoniac Little Village Doctor

The Princess had already assumed her stance, and at this moment, she had made her decision.

The Vice Alliance Hierarch’s face was icy and hostile, with a grim expression. He walked toward the Princess holding a dagger, which gleamed coldly, and then charged toward her.

The dagger in his grip swung directly at the Princess, but she was not to be outdone and immediately brandished her sword to block.

The Vice Alliance Hierarch was somewhat surprised. He had not expected the Princess to withstand his blow, more precisely, that the sword in her hand could endure the slash of a Divine Artifact.

The dagger was such a weapon that prioritized sharpness. Among Divine Artifacts, daggers were the sharpest weapons, followed by the sturdiness of swords.

Being able to withstand the slash from a dagger of Divine Grade indicated that this sword possessed nearly divine quality.

"No wonder you could compete with me so well, it seems you’ve been holding back," the Vice Alliance Hierarch spoke to the Princess dismissively, as though he hadn’t taken her seriously at all.

The Princess had no mood to listen to his nonsense now, she rushed forward and executed a stunning sword technique. Her graceful figure was accentuated by the sword technique, exuding elegance, with invisible Sword Qi tearing through the air.

Facing the unexpected strike, the Vice Alliance Hierarch hastily defended himself and narrowly missed being injured by the sword. He raised his dagger to retaliate, slashing down yet the Princess didn’t dodge nor avoid.

The Princess exerted herself, slashing the sword at the Vice Alliance Hierarch with an attitude of going down together with him.

He wasn’t foolish enough to fight fiercely with the woman before him, since getting hurt would cost him the chance of achieving merit. He needed to conserve his strength to clean up the aftermath and couldn’t afford to slip up here.

Having realized this, the Vice Alliance Hierarch dodged the Princess’ full-force attack. This attack didn’t have the overwhelming aura of destroying heaven and earth, but was merely a confrontation between swordsmanship and sword technique aimed at taking the opponent’s life by concentrating all energy invisibly.

Although nothing appeared to happen on the surface, an earth-shattering aura transpired secretly; yet such momentum was used for killing, thus didn’t need to explode externally.

Only when this sword or that dagger struck their opponent would the one struck feel the destructive pain hidden within.

The Vice Alliance Hierarch wasn’t foolish enough for mutual destruction, so he chose to evade at this moment.

Lin Feng was at this moment leading the man scouting from the wind toward this place, and just happened to see the force of a thousand men on the hillside.

These people had formed a circle, and one couldn’t tell from outside what was going on inside.

But Lin Feng was the acting Hall Master of the White Crane Hall, thus being a member of the Heaven Alliance, the soldiers at this moment were his enemies. Without hesitation, Lin Feng led over five hundred people behind him charging at the thousand-strong force.

The thousand-strong force was caught off guard and instantly over half of them surrendered their arms; Song Cheng led over five hundred scattered troops beginning to retreat into the mountains.

Lin Feng didn’t pursue them, as there were still forces from nineteen other halls in these mountains awaiting to be dealt with.

At this time, seeing Song Cheng’s group retreat, the Vice Alliance Hierarch hurriedly begged for mercy and said, "Everything before was an act. Please do not take offense, Princess."

The Princess almost believed him, she glanced at Mu Yu and then at the Vice Alliance Hierarch.

Just as the Princess hesitated, the Vice Alliance Hierarch escaped. No one knew where he went or where he intended to go. Since he had left, the Princess didn’t think much more of it.

The Princess looked at Mu Yu, who was still searching around, and softly said, "Let him go." Even at this point, the Princess was still speaking on behalf of the Vice Alliance Hierarch. Seeing this scene, Mu Yu couldn’t possibly say anything more. Since the Alliances Hierarch was so magnanimous, Mu Yu had no grievances to harbor.

Then Mu Yu gently said, "I hope the Vice Alliance Hierarch understands your kindness."

At this moment, only the Princess and Mu Yu knew the Vice Alliance Hierarch was a traitor; as long as the Princess remained silent, the world would not know. Thus, logically, the Vice Alliance Hierarch remained the Vice Alliance Hierarch.

If predictions were correct, he should be heading towards Yuhua City.

He felt that since the Princess couldn’t be removed, mobilizing the army to stabilize the realm was still within his grasp.

Evidently, things had reached the point where the Vice Alliance Hierarch had been driven into a corner, and beyond taking a gamble, what awaited him was only death.

At this moment, Lin Feng came to the Princess.

The Princess spoke to Lin Feng with gratitude, saying, "Hero, as the Princess I must thank you for your contribution to this country."

Lin Feng felt a bit awkward, as being praised from top to bottom by a young lady was a first for him.

Seeing Lin Feng silent, the Princess continued, "After this battle, we will move to Yuhua City and meet up with the main forces, but before that, I need to first rescue the Emperor. Are you willing to help me, Hero?"

Lin Feng asked, "Where to rescue?"

The Princess lowered her head and replied, "Yuhua City."
