The Crown Princess Volume - Chapter 1 Jump off the Cliff

On the Hantian Continent.

In the Shangqi Forest, south of the Zhuque Empire, two groups of people were confronting.

"Why?"

The girl who was speaking was about ten years old. Dressed in the thin white clothes, she looked rather fragile, whose purple eyes were staring at the young girl in red opposite in disbelief.

The girl in red gave a bloodthirsty smile and snorted, "You still don't know why by now. I think you are not only useless but also brainless."

"I don't understand. We got along well yesterday, didn't we?" The girl in white looked so sad.

The girl in red sneered with her face full of mockery, "Duanmu Xi, do you really think I'm here to search for the water spiritual fruit with you?"

In a daze, Duanmu Xi gaped at her cousin, Duanmu Qing, who had pleased her by all means. She felt as if she had never known this cousin.

"You want to kill me."

Her sad voice gradually became calm, as if she didn't care at all.

"Exactly. Today, you will die in the Shangqi Forest. Go and get her."

As Duanmu Qing waved her hand, the people in black immediately rushed forward.

The last shadow guard of Duanmu Xi stood before her decisively.

It was a pity that the strength disparity between the two parties was too great. Shortly, the people in black killed the shadow guard and captured Duanmu Xi.

"Get your hands off me. I prefer death to humiliation."

Duanmu Xi shrugged off the hands of the people in black and instantly gave off her deterrent power of being in a high position for a long time.

For the moment, the people in black all didn't dare to go forward.

Looking at Duanmu Xi's haughty face, Duanmu Qing had a glint of envy and killing intent in her eyes.

"You prefer death to humiliation? I must humiliate you today!"

Duanmu Qing suddenly raised her hand and chopped Duanmu Xi's neck.

"Ouch..."

A shrill scream reverberated through the sky, giving others the creeps.

With a bang, Duanmu Xi thumped on the ground.

Duanmu Qing trampled on Duanmu Xi's vertebra, crushing harshly back and forth.

"How are you feeling about your meridians all being broken?"

Duanmu Qing raised her eyebrows with a smile, looking down at Duanmu Xi on the ground in a triumphant demeanor.

Duanmu Xi gritted her teeth and stuck her fingers deep into the earth. She didn't allow herself to make any sound, not even a light groan.

As Duanmu Xi stayed quiet, an air of dissatisfaction flashed across Duanmu Qing's eyes. She squatted down and grabbed Duanmu Xi's wet hair. "Do you know why you are suffering the meridian blockage? It is because I've poisoned you."

Duanmu Xi clenched her fists, her eyes filled with resentment.

Duanmu Qing gave a triumphant smile. Now, Duanmu Xi finally had a reaction.

"Now, all your meridians are broken. Don't ever fantasize about reconnecting the meridians. It won't work. You will be a total wreck forever, ever..."

Duanmu Qing's malicious face appeared rather ferocious.

"My mother and my father will seek revenge for me..." Duanmu Xi glared at Duanmu Qing coldly, saying word by word.

"Revenge?"

Duanmu Qing snorted and pinched Duanmu Xi's chin harshly.

"For what? Does anybody see that I kill you? No one even knows you and I came here. When you are dead, I'll treat them well. Maybe they will pass the throne to me by then."

Cock-a-hoop, Duanmu Qing seemed to have gained the dream position.

"Pfft, in your dream."

Duanmu Xi suddenly spat on Duanmu Qing's face and stopped her from fantasizing.

"D*mn it."

With veins standing out on her forehead, Duanmu Qing wiped the saliva off her face and kicked Duanmu Xi away with her face full of killing intent.

The moment that Duanmu Qing kicked her away, Duanmu Xi laughed.

Even if she had to die, she would never let herself be killed by Duanmu Qing.

Looking at Duanmu Xi who suddenly rose and ran away, Duanmu Qing realized that she had been taken in. She gritted her teeth with a regretful face.

"Go after her."

By the cliff, the girl in white stood there in the wind. Beneath her was the stormy Infinite Sea.

"Duanmu Xi, it is the cliff ahead of you. You cannot run away. You are doomed!"

Upon seeing Duanmu Xi, Duanmu Qing was clearly relieved.

Staring at Duanmu Qing and the people in black, Duanmu Xi curled her lips.

Suddenly, she jumped into the Infinite Sea behind her.

"Duanmu Qing, even if I die, you can never become the crown princess..."

Her shrill cry lingered in the heart of every person on the cliff, which was hard to erase.

She could never become the crown princess?

Standing by the cliff, Duanmu Qing was lost in thought.

Thinking of Emperor Taizu's regulation of the clan, Duanmu Qing clenched her fists, with her eyes full of gloominess.
