The Savage Lady Wants to Kill Me! Reborn on the Path of Cultivation

Lu Jingyuan and Hua Duoer were shocked and immediately protected Duan Tianyang with knives.

At this time, Duan Tianyang had roughly guessed the identity of the woman in white in front of him, and he suddenly realized where the familiar feeling came from.

He no longer hesitated, strode out from behind the two men and faced the woman in white.

The woman in white was the first to ask, "Are you in cahoots with them?"

Duan Tianyang responded quickly: "No!" Then he asked: "Miss, is your last name Yi?"

The two attendants beside the woman looked shocked after hearing this.

Caiyun was dissatisfied and said angrily: "How dare you deny that you have nothing to do with them? If not, how do you know that my young lady's surname is Yi?"

Caiyun's words invisibly answered Duan Tianyang's confusion.

Although he had never seen the woman in white, he felt that her face seemed familiar.

At this moment, he finally remembered that the feeling of similarity actually came from the fact that the woman's appearance was somewhat similar to that of Yi Tian, ​​the Lord of the Divine Realm, especially the heroic spirit in her.

How could I meet her here by chance?!

Duan Tianyang sighed inwardly, looked directly at the woman in white, and asked, "Miss, can you let me see your official badge?"

Official badges are granted by the imperial court to prove the official's identity.

After hearing this, Caiyun was even more certain that Duan Tianyang was colluding with the assassin. She exchanged a glance with another attendant, and both of them raised their ladies' swords at the same time, ready to take action.

"Caiyun, Caiyue, don't be rude!" The woman in white sternly stopped the two of them. She then reached into her arms, took out a gold medal, and handed it to Duan Tianyang, asking softly, "Do you want to see this?"

Duan Tianyang took the gold medal and felt it was heavy. He lowered his head and looked at it carefully. He saw the words "Princess" engraved on the gold medal, which was a gift from the emperor.

After Duan Tianyang carefully examined the gold medal, he had already confirmed the other party's identity in his mind.

This woman in white was none other than Yi Shuirou, the princess of the Divine Realm, the envoy sent by the imperial court to Xifan.

Duan Tianyang had previously sent a messenger to Xuanhuang City to report urgent military intelligence and received a reply from the messenger.

The letter recorded in detail the circumstances of the imperial court dispatching Princess Yi Shuirou to the Western Regions, as well as an introduction to her.

Yi Shuirou has an extremely distinguished family background. She is the apple of the eye of Yi Yuan, the Lord of Baxia City, and the niece of Yi Tian, ​​the Lord of the Divine Realm.

Ever since Yi Tian handed over all court affairs to Ling Ziyan, Yi Shuirou also followed the trend and turned to assist Ling Ziyan with all her strength.

But her identity is far more than that, she is also the Palace Master of Linghua Palace.

Linghua Palace is a force made up of a group of dark martial artists, and is ranked as one of the five major sects in the Divine Realm. Its reputation is well-known in both the imperial court and the martial arts world.

Although the strength of Linghua Palace is not particularly outstanding compared with the other four giant sects, it can occupy a place among the five giant sects, mainly due to the intricate relationship between it and the imperial court.

Linghua Palace is a martial arts sect, but it has long been funded by the imperial court, and the position of its palace master has always been inherited by people from the Yitian family, which makes Linghua Palace's status in the martial arts world very important.

Yi Shuirou is the current Palace Master of Linghua Palace. Although she and Ling Ziyan are only cousins ​​in name, they have a very deep personal relationship.

Since Ling Ziyan took charge of court affairs, the talented Yi Shuirou has won her favor and been reused.

In literature, Yi Shuirou showed outstanding talent from a young age. When she was five or six years old, she could compose poems with objects. When she was eleven or twelve years old, she could write excellent articles.

In the field of martial arts, her talent is even more remarkable. At the age of fourteen, she was selected as the successor to the Palace Master of Linghua Palace; at the age of seventeen, she officially took over the position of Palace Master.

After that, Yi Shuirou accepted the inheritance of "Dou Zhuan Xing Yi" from the three elders of Linghua Palace.

This is an extremely mysterious dark martial arts skill that requires the caster to sacrifice himself and pass on all his skills and memories to the recipient.

Through this inheritance, the successor can not only obtain all the skills of the caster, but also inherit his lifelong memories.

However, this inheritance process is extremely dangerous and requires strong willpower to support it. If you are not careful, you may lose your life.

But Yi Shuirou successfully withstood this test with her firm will, and thus achieved a huge improvement in her cultivation.

From the reply letter that the messenger wrote to Duan Tianyang, he already had some understanding of Yi Shuirou.

Seeing that the woman in white had such a high level of cultivation and was also a hidden warrior, and that her appearance was somewhat similar to Yi Tian, ​​he gradually became certain in his heart that the woman in white was most likely Yi Shuirou.

So, he took a deep breath, handed the gold medal back to her, and bowed, saying, "I am Duan Tianyang, nice to meet you, princess!"

"Duan Tianyang?" Yi Shuirou, Caiyun and Caiyue were all surprised when they heard the name. Caiyun and Caiyue opened their mouths in surprise.

After a while, Caiyun came back to her senses from her surprise. She pointed at the corpse on the ground and asked doubtfully, "Didn't you send these assassins?"

Duan Tianyang seemed quite disdainful of Caiyun's question, and he even felt that answering it was unnecessary.

How could she ask such a stupid question when it was so obvious?

If these people were really sent by him, why would he appear here?

Besides, he had no motive to assassinate Yi Shuirou, let alone disrupt Yi Shuirou's mission to Xifan.

If he intended to obstruct Yi Shuirou's mission, he would never have written to the court many times to warn and ask for help.

Yi Shuirou keenly caught the sneer of contempt on his face...

It is indeed ridiculous to accuse Duan Tianyang of sending someone to murder her.

She turned to look at Caiyun and said in a solemn voice, "Caiyun, stop making assumptions!"

Caiyun muttered in a low voice: "As soon as they arrived, the assassin showed up. Isn't this too much of a coincidence?"

Yi Shuirou also felt that this matter was quite strange, but she was more inclined to believe that it was just a chance encounter.

Her eyes were sharp as torches as she looked Duan Tianyang up and down carefully.

The first time she heard the name Duan Tianyang was from Ling Ziyan.

However, Ling Ziyan did not reveal the engagement between the two.

At that time, Ling Ziyan had not yet taken over the affairs of the court. She only casually mentioned that she had been rescued by Duan Tianyang at the market and her deeds in the treasure hunt competition.

Since then, she has been full of curiosity about Duan Tianyang, but has never had the chance to meet him.

Later, Duan Tianyang was transferred to Xiguan City by Ling Ziyan, and the chances of the two meeting became even slimmer.

Now, Duan Tianyang stood in front of her, much younger than she had imagined, and seemed to be less than twenty years old.

He has an extraordinarily handsome appearance, always has a cynical look on his face, and his bright eyes are sparkling.
