y this, she could also explain why these days, even though they slept in the same bed, he didn't touch her. He must have known that someone was watching them from the shadows. That did seem convincing...Dugu City, you must hurry.

In her heart, she silently prayed. Her body suspended in mid-air grew increasingly heavy. She dared not look down; if this continued, she feared she would truly fall.

Time was slowly passing, Feng Lingxi was starting to feel the strain. Her palms were raw from gripping the rope, and she looked up. There was no sound, she was going to have to wait for a while longer. She couldn't hang on like this any longer, she needed to find a foothold.

Looking at the branches in the distance, Feng Lingxi tried to swing over. Her hands holding the rope were bleeding, and after several strenuous swings, she finally stepped onto a branch. Feng Lingxi grabbed the branch and carefully pressed herself against the cliff wall. Looking down at the bottomless abyss, her head swam, so she quickly looked away.

General Sun and Xiao Li arrived with an army of ten thousand, their forces overwhelming. Upon hearing the approaching troops, Dugu Xiu immediately retreated with Feng Yu Xi, avoiding a direct confrontation. With Dugu Cheng also absent, a full-scale battle would have been disastrous; he simply couldn't match their strength.

Feiyu Xi looked down at the cliff, her eyes filled with unwillingness.

"Sixth Prince, we'll wait here. If Feng Ling Xi is still alive and they manage to rescue her, all our efforts will be for nothing."

"This is not simple, bring someone, shoot arrows down towards the cliff."

Dugu Xiu spoke harshly, holding a bow and arrow aimed at the cliff below. The other archers hurriedly followed suit, firing arrows down relentlessly. Feng Lingxi was feeling exhausted. Suddenly, she heard a whooshing sound. An arrow landed in front of her, scaring her into pressing against the cliff wall, unable to move.

"Damn it, they're still here."

Feng Lingxi watched the arrows falling continuously. Fortunately, she had pressed herself against the cliff wall. If she had been clinging to the wall like before, she would have been shot into a hedgehog by now.

After a while, Dugu Xiu looked down the cliff, "If she's not dead, with so many arrows, Feng Lingxi must be dead for sure. Let's go."

Feng Yu Xi unwillingly looked at the cliff, she didn't see Feng Ling Xi die with her own eyes, she was truly unwilling.

"What are you still doing Don't tell me you want to stay here and be caught by the people from Dugu City Don't come crying to me when that happens."

Dugu Xiu led people away, Feng Yu Xi hurriedly chased after them, leaving the cliff.

General Sun's men arrived at the cliff and saw it was empty nearby. Their faces changed color, and he shouted at them, "Immediately search the area! You must find the Princess."

"Hurry up and let go of the rope, I want to get down."

Xiaoli held the rope, ready to descend the cliff. The princess said she could wait for her in the cave at the bottom of the cliff, and Xiaoli was determined to save the princess.

"Help me quickly."

General Sun urged and helped Xiaoli do the work. They were busy for a long time, kicking the rubble on the edge of the cliff down. Feng Lingxi was hit by the rolling stones on her wrist, wincing in pain, biting her lip. Her lip color had already turned pale. The blood clotted on the palm of her hand made her face look as pale as paper.

"Dugu Cheng, if you don't come again, I will die here."

Feng Lingxi gritted her teeth, enduring the pain as she whispered, Heaven knows how difficult every minute and every second of her persistence is right now. If this continues, she's afraid she'll really collapse.

"Be careful, everyone. Be careful going down."

Sun, the deputy general, instructed them to watch over Xiao Li as she climbed down and ordered someone to guard the area nearby. He followed her down the cliff himself.

The sky grew dark, clouds gathering thickly. The wind whipped past her ears, howling like a beast. Feng Lingxi looked up at the darkening heavens and prayed silently, hoping with all her might that there wouldn't be thunder. Otherwise, she would truly be in danger.

With a sudden crack, the twig beneath her foot snapped. Feng Lingxi looked down at the broken branch; the stones below had loosened and wouldn't hold much longer.

Feng Lingxi glanced down, but didn't see a place to land. If she fell, she would be finished.

She carefully opened the crossbow in her sleeve, seeing that half the string was still there. Feng Lingxi aimed at a branch on the right and shot, the hook catching the branch. She looked at the pits on the cliff face, gripped the branch, held onto the rope, and cautiously climbed in the direction of the branch.

Suddenly, a scream pierced the air. Feng Lingxi looked up and saw a black figure hurtling towards her. Feng Lingxi tried to dodge but it was too late. The figure crashed into her, breaking the bow and crossbow she had strapped to her arm. She was sent flying backward, tumbling over the edge of the cliff.

"Hurry, grab my hand."

Xiao Li shouted at the soldiers, looking at him hanging from a tree branch, she reached out her hand in a hurry. The soldier stretched out his hand to grasp Xiao Li's hand, pulling her to his side. But for some reason, she always felt that she seemed to have seen someone fall just now.

"Little Li, I think I just bumped into someone."

Those soldiers stood firm, looking down with pale faces. "She pushed me too,"

Xiao Li's eyes fell on the rope around him, looking at the hook above. Her face changed drastically, and she hurriedly looked around. Her gaze fell on the broken branches below. That position must be where the princess was standing, but now there was no one there.

"Could it be that you just bumped into the Princess"

Xiao Li couldn't believe her deduction. Looking down at the cliff, her body trembled violently.

"Little Li, I'm so sorry, I really didn't know it was the Princess, I..."

"Little Li girl, the storm is coming, come up quickly."

Sun the deputy general climbed down for a while and then went back up. Looking at the gloomy sky, the wind had already picked up, and the trend of the storm showed they couldn't stay under the cliff, or they would surely die.

"Your Highness."

Little Li shouted loudly from the edge of the cliff, but after shouting for a long time, no one responded to her. Tears welled up in Little Li's eyes and streamed down her face as she searched around again and again, but there was no cave as the princess had described.

"Your Highness,"

"Little Li, come up first. Let's find a place to shelter from the storm and then look for the Princess."

General Sun shouted loudly, forcefully pulling Xiao Li up from the cliff. A violent storm struck, with heavy raindrops pounding on their faces and soaking their clothes. Xiao Li knelt on the ground, staring at the bottom of the precipice, slapping herself hard in remorse.

"It's all my fault, I shouldn't have left the Queen, I shouldn't have left her."

"Little Li, let's find a place to take shelter from the rain. The princess will be fine."

Sun, the deputy general, shouted loudly. Seeing her like this, he was really afraid she would do something stupid, so he hurriedly sent someone to drag Xiaoli away and took her to a nearby cave for shelter from the rain. The wind and rain battered the ground, as if they were going to wash everything around them clean.

“Are you thinking, did you really hit someone”

Little Li grabbed the soldier she had saved and questioned him. Looking at his frightened eyes, she shouted, "Tell me, did you hit someone" All the people who had fallen off the cliff were alive, so besides the princess, who else could have fallenand, "Wife, thank you.""Why are you telling me this We're family. This daughter is yours, she's mine too. You don't need to thank me."Originally touched by their loving couple, Feng Lingxi now found h...
