It didn't take long for everyone to get the answer.

Those people seemed to be really arresting people, and the whole mansion was in chaos. Soon, Prince Ju also appeared and gathered everyone. All the guards, whether they were in the open or hiding in the dark, came out.

Prince Ju was standing on the upper seat, frowning and scolding something.

Shang Wenqi held his breath and listened attentively. Soon the sounds from the house became clearer.

Back to the palace villa, someone just spotted a shadow in the courtyard, so everyone immediately became alert and all personnel went out.

What was strange was that the shadow flashed by and disappeared.

At this time, no one thought too much about it. They just thought that this person was hiding. The news soon reached Prince Ju's ears.

Prince Ju immediately gathered everyone together and was determined to turn the yard upside down.

"If anyone dares to enter my mansion, he will be prevented from leaving."

"Yes!"

Afterwards, a large-scale search began in the villa.

However, after searching for a long time, I found nothing.

When Prince Ju heard the result, his eyes narrowed slightly and he looked angry: "Impossible, I don't believe this person can hide so well, keep looking!"

"Yes."

Everyone was not brave enough to take it lightly and continued searching.

But the answer is obvious, nothing.

Just when everyone was nervously reporting, a figure suddenly passed behind Prince Ju. If the previous figure was only seen by a few people, now the figure behind Prince Ju was seen by everyone.

Everyone's face changed and they rushed forward immediately.

However, behind Prince Ju was the main hall. When they rushed in, it was empty, still with nothing inside.

Prince Ju was watching everything in the house from outside, his brows furrowed involuntarily, as he felt that this scene was inexplicably familiar and weird.

At this moment, he suddenly discovered that there seemed to be a white shadow passing over the eaves.

Prince Ju flew onto the roof himself, but the white shadow quickly swept across the courtyard. This speed was simply not something a human could achieve.

Seeing this, Prince Ju immediately understood.

It must be that the evil spirits that had been playing tricks on them have not left yet and are still pestering them.

After understanding it clearly, Prince Ju said coldly: "No need to look for it."

"?" Everyone was confused and didn't know what it meant for a moment.

"Everyone return to your original positions and strengthen patrols."

"But that person..."

"Unless he threatens my life, leave it alone."

After saying that, Prince Ju returned to the living room again, leaving only the confused guards. Although everyone felt that something was wrong, the prince had asked them to withdraw, so they couldn't continue to be conspicuous here, right?

Everyone could only return to their original positions silently, but they couldn't help but be extremely alert.

Then, that ghostly shadow kept running around in the yard, while Prince Ju calmly drank tea in the main hall and watched coldly.

At this point, no matter how dumb everyone is, they all know the situation.

This is the damn monster that has been haunting the mountains for the past two days!

Before, they thought it might be Shang Wenqi and Ning Ning's doing, but now it seems that it was not them. This evil spirit had been targeting the prince from the beginning, and they just happened to run into him.

It is said that when people are unlucky, they are more likely to be targeted by ghosts. It seems to be true now!

What a good thing!

After everyone figured it out, they couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. If it was an ordinary assassin or something, they could still fight with him for wealth and fame, but if the other party was a ghost, then they would definitely not be able to deal with it.

While everyone felt guilty, they silently grabbed a handful of the amulet, cinnabar or something on their chest. They felt at ease only after touching it.

While they were preparing themselves mentally, Ning Ning was also stepping up her efforts.

She quickly manipulated the system, making the shadow more and more elusive, with the main effect making people feel numb.

At this time, everyone lurking in the tree was stunned.

It would have been fine if they couldn't see the shadow at the beginning, but now, the shadow almost didn't avoid people and went wherever it wanted. It was outrageous.

Zuo Yan couldn't help but mutter: "Am I dazzled or blind? Why is this happening? Are there really ghosts in this world?"

The few people who followed Shang Wenqi to Minzhou were naturally also involved in this operation. When they heard Zuo Yan's words, they couldn't help but look at each other.

I thought to myself, ghosts are nothing, they have also encountered gold-eating beasts!

Compared to the gold-eating beast, this ghost has become ordinary.

However, since they were in hiding, it was not a good time to chat much, so they could only suppress the desire to chat.

Shang Wenqi curled his lips and said, "No matter if it's just a trick or something, it's helping us anyway. Let's go in during the chaos."

Given their numb condition at the moment, as long as they were fast enough, they could pretend to be ghosts, which would be easy.

After waiting for another half an hour, Shang Wenqi finally gave the order and left.

Everyone immediately became excited and followed him.

I saw several shadows bursting out from the treetops and rushing straight into the yard.

In the darkness of the night, the men moved very fast, and with their black clothes as cover, they could not be seen clearly at all.

Soon, they flashed into the yard, and Shang Wenqi passed by like a ghost. Everyone felt a flash before their eyes and thought it was still the ghostly figure, but in the blink of an eye, the black shadow flashed into the yard. With a clang, the sound of a teacup falling to the ground was heard in the house.

Everyone was stunned at first, and soon they heard the sound of fighting. Then they realized what was happening and their faces changed: "Oh no! There really is an assassin this time!"

Without further delay, everyone rushed inside, grabbing their weapons.

However, the duel between masters always takes place in a flash, and the outcome of the battle was determined the moment Shang Wenqi rushed into the living room.

Prince An Ju also practiced martial arts and was considered to be quite talented, but how could he compare with Shang Wenqi, who had been tempered by the Blood Whale?

He didn't even have time to draw his weapon. He just dropped a cup, and the next second he was held hostage by Shang Wenqi, with a sharp knife against his throat.

Shang Wenqi was not at all vague. After pressing against his throat, he used his other hand to seal his acupoints and disarm his arms.

The main goal is to leave no room for retreat.

Prince Ju's face turned pale as paper: "Shang Wenqi! You'd better know what you are doing."

"Don't worry, Your Highness. I know what I am doing. Otherwise, I would not feel at ease." Shang Wenqi said as he escorted him out.

At this time, Zuo Yan and others quickly rushed to Shang Wenqi's side to protect him.

"Prince Ju has been captured, you all should surrender immediately!"

The guards in the courtyard were all stunned. They had never expected the situation to turn out like this. However, they dared neither surrender nor confront, and did not know what to do.

After all, the prince was an omnipotent god to them, and there was no way he would lose. Even if they were captured, it was probably intentional by the prince. After all, they would not dare to act rashly without the prince's order.
