"Your Highness, the border is not as good as the capital, please forgive me."

The city lord was an elegant middle-aged man with a slightly weathered face, but he looked at Qin Wuran peacefully.

"It's okay. As the princess of the Moon Country, I naturally have to be considerate of you."

Qin Wu Ran looked at the five dishes and one soup on the table and felt like her saliva was about to flow out. She hadn't had a proper meal for the past few days because of the rush on the road.

"Then Your Highness, please enjoy your meal. I will take my leave now." The city lord left tactfully. When he left, he saw Qin Wuran enjoying his meal very much. He also sighed that Princess Mingyue was truly patriotic and loved her people.

I'm afraid she had never tasted such simple meals in the capital, but now she can eat them with relish. It can be seen that this princess really serves the country and the people.

She was a good princess who loved her country and her people, as she was willing to sacrifice herself for the sake of her country and marry into an enemy country.

Since the news at the border was not well-informed, Qin Wuran's scandals were covered up in the palace, and it was told to the outside world that she voluntarily married into the Tuoba royal family.

She was portrayed as a perfect princess who sacrificed herself for justice, making her very popular among the people. They all thought she was a kind-hearted princess who sacrificed herself for the people, just like her mother.

"You mean this Princess Mingyue came to the border town alone?"

The city lord couldn't believe the news reported by his men. He couldn't believe that the princess had returned as a spy.

"Yes, sir, this is what we have investigated in the past few days."

"Let me take another look..."

The city lord was about to say something when he was interrupted by a knock on the door. He had not yet finished reading the contents of the letter.

However, the servants around stopped him from entering, which shows how strict the defense of the City Lord's Mansion is.

When I opened the door, I saw Qin Wuran, standing at the door with a lunch box and a gentle smile on his face.

The servant who was trying to find out the news had an unpleasant look on his face, but he still retreated after following the city lord's instructions.

"Lord City Lord, you have worked hard to guard the border. I can't do anything for you, so I made some cakes for you."

"I hope you'll be so kind as to try some of them." She then brought out a plate of sweet cakes she had made and handed it to the city lord.

Such a noble royal princess condescended to make a cake for a minor official in a small border town like him, which made his ancestors feel happy.

"Your Highness, how can I be worthy of you?"

After saying this, the city lord knelt down and kowtowed to express his gratitude.

Qin Wu Ran hurriedly stopped her, saying that this was what she should do. As a princess, she could not make any contribution to the country, and only by marrying into the Tuoba tribe could the war be quelled.

Hoping that they would be loyal to the Moon Kingdom and defend the country, the two of them sat down and started talking.

Watching Gu Zhen eating the pastries, the city lord also carefully ate the pastries made by Qin Wuran, and only then did he know why Gu Zhen came here.

The city lord thought that since she was willing to sacrifice herself and marry into the Tuoba clan, she would not harm their common people, so the news must be wrong.

After all, how could anyone be willing to marry into a den of wolves like the Tuoba clan?

Although it was very suspicious for her to be alone in this border area, when she left the city, they saw that the eldest prince of the Tuoba tribe loved her very much.

She secretly left the Tuoba tribe, perhaps with the permission of the eldest prince.

After all, if she was having a hard time, she would definitely want to leave and would never say she wanted to go back. Besides, how could a weak woman like him escape from such a far place?

The Tuoba people passed these women down from generation to generation, and these women would belong to whoever succeeded to the throne.

As Princess Mingyue of Yue Kingdom, Gu Zhen is the jewel in the palm of the hand of the Emperor of Yue Kingdom. There is no way he could let her marry into the Tuoba clan and suffer.

Apart from the fact that she voluntarily joined the Tuoba tribe, he really couldn't think of a better reason.

After talking with her, I found out that the Tuoba people were very boring and she wanted to come here to eat some delicious food. Prince Tuoba also doted on her very much.

Just as he was about to say something, the city lord suddenly felt dizzy and fell on the table unconscious.

"Sir? Sir?" Qin Wuran called out twice, but saw that there was no response.

He walked straight into his study and began searching everywhere.

During this time, sweat broke out on his forehead and he looked very anxious.

She clearly remembered that person telling her that the thing was in the study, so why couldn't she find it?

Suddenly Qin Wuran touched a secret compartment and heard a click.

When he opened it, it turned out to be a map. Qin Wuran quickly stuffed the map into his arms.

He took the map and left the study directly. The guards outside the door became anxious when they saw that the city lord had not let them in. They shouted a few times but there was no response from the room.

I knew something had happened, and when I opened the door I found the city lord unconscious on the table.

"Someone come! Capture Princess Mingyue!"

Such an order made everyone a little panicked, but they had to follow the orders of this adult. After all, he was the second executor besides the city lord.

However, after leaving the study, Qin Wuran did not return to his room, but turned around and left.

Escaped from the City Lord's Mansion and got on the departing carriage.

After Qin Wuran got on the carriage, the spy who was supposed to pick him up rode at full speed and returned to the Tuoba tribe in just a few days.

After receiving the map, the Tuoba tribe rested overnight and began to attack the border cities.

Although it is just a rough map and does not show very detailed locations, these places can still be seen.

Even if the city lord deployed defenses overnight, he was still too late to resist the fierce attack of the Tuoba tribe, and the city was lost within three days.

Before his death, the city lord couldn't believe that it was his own people who betrayed him.

Although there had always been spies in the city, he had never expected that the spy would be Princess Mingyue.

When the emperor in the palace received the news, three cities on the border had already been lost.

When the emperor learned that it was Princess Mingyue who did these things, he felt dizzy and couldn't believe it at all.

Although three cities were lost on the border, the strength of the Moon Kingdom remained very strong.

The Tuoba tribe had no way to chew on this tough bone and could only wander around those cities.

However, all the old, young, women and children in the city were brutally killed. Qin Wuran was pinned on the top of the city wall, watching these people being killed.

The eldest prince she had been thinking about rode a tall horse and patrolled the streets, slashing with his knife, killing women and children one after another.

"No! You lied to me!" Qin Wuran's face was full of pain, and she couldn't believe what she saw.

"Hahahaha, little princess, stop yelling."

"They died because of your map."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

The second prince of the Tuoba clan, with a look of gloating on his face, gently patted Qin Wuran's face.

"Don't worry, this prince will definitely keep you alive and let you watch your country disappear."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

"Brother, how about letting me play with her?"

"I haven't played with a pregnant two-legged sheep yet."

Qin Wuran looked at him in disbelief, having never expected that the pregnant person he was talking about was her.

At this moment, she just felt her head buzzing and had no idea what they were talking about.

She harmed the people of the entire city and caused the deaths of so many people.

"Alright, serve me well. You are carrying my father's child in your belly, so be careful."

However, what the second prince said next was like a bolt from the blue to her. Her eyes went blank and she even wondered if she was dreaming.

"what?"

"Don't you know that you are pregnant with my father's child?" The second prince curled his lips indifferently.

"Tuoba Yi! You lied to me! Why?"

"You lied to me!"

Qin Wuran climbed on the city wall and roared at the top of his lungs, but Tuoba Yi, who was riding a tall horse under the wall, seemed not to hear or see anything.

Qin Wuran was left with only a resolute back, and no matter how he screamed in the spot, he remained indifferent.

She watched as more and more people were brought before her, their heads cut off and left to die on the ground. Many children were stabbed to death.

Qin Wuran finally couldn't bear it anymore. The guilt overwhelmed her. She really became a sinner for all eternity.

Being pregnant with a child from such a man, Qin Wuran was completely desperate. She looked at the high city wall and jumped down.

"Ah!" The second prince was frightened before he could react.

In this way, Princess Mingyue of the Moon Kingdom died amidst millions of curses, and she was pregnant with a child when she died.

No one came to collect her body, which was left exposed to the scorching sun.

"Hahahaha, I haven't seen such an interesting thing in a long time."

After reading Shen Ruo's experience, the woman was very satisfied.

The scene turned back to the secret realm, and Shen Ruo, who had originally entered the secret realm, was now lying on a jade bed.

The bed was emitting rich spiritual energy, and the woman who was speaking was sitting on a stone table nearby in a red dress.

If God opens his eyes, this is the picture he sees.

"Girl, what's your name?" The woman spoke gently, and when she raised her head, her face looked exactly like Gu Zhen in the picture.

If a god saw her appearance, there would be nothing he couldn't understand. The secret realm she entered and all these mirages were probably created by this senior.

"Senior, I am Shenruo, sorry to bother you."

"Haha, no, you and I are both to my liking, Shen Ruo, both have two characters, but you are destined to be with me."

The woman smiled without any intention of blaming him, and looked at Shen Ruo with some longing.

"Take it. I think you come here for this thing too." After saying that, Gu Zhen handed a box to Shen Ruo.

Inside the box was a round bead that emitted a silvery-white glow. Shen Ruo took it with some doubt.

"Thank you, senior. I wonder what this is?"

"Don't you know? This secret place is left by me."

"At that time, I didn't have the courage you had in the illusion."

"I didn't marry into the Tuoba tribe, but the Yue Kingdom was still gone."

"I have waited for so long. You are the only one who saved the Moon Kingdom and yourself."

Shen Ruo was a little confused after hearing the woman's strange words.

"In order to seek revenge, I crossed the oceans and mountains, cultivated myself to become an immortal, and found my own path."

"In the end, they said that those who practice Taoism should forget about the mundane world and not kill at will."

"Of course I won't. I destroyed the Tuoba clan, but I'm also a sinner."

"I don't know if I did the right thing, and this has become a demon in my heart."

"So I have been stuck in this realm, with no way to advance."

Gu Zhen talked a lot. She didn't know what the bead was used for. She just got it by chance.

As for the magic harp that Shen Ruo and the others were looking for, it was not there. Now she only had this one bead left.

Shen Ruo also knew that this was the obsession left by Gu Zhen, and what she said was just what she wanted to say before she died.

"Thank you, senior."

Shen Ruo still bowed respectfully to Gu Zhen, and Gu Zhen seemed to have let go of the obsession in his heart.

The whole person turned into a wisp of flying smoke and disappeared, and Shen Ruo was also bounced out from that strange place.

Qin Wuran was lying on the ground with cold sweat on his face, shouting "No, no" over and over.

The whole person was completely trapped in the illusion and couldn't get out.

Such an experience might have created some inner demons in her heart, but no one knows what will happen.

She got the thing, turned around and left without caring about Qin Wuran who was lying on the ground. After all, she wanted to kill Qin Wuran and he would definitely not save her.

Before he could leave completely, Shen Ruo was stopped again by someone, and the temples were blocking his way.

Looking at this familiar outfit, Shen Ruo's face immediately darkened.

"Oh, I knew they entered the secret realm." The man stared at Shen Ruo with greed in his eyes.

Shen Ruo didn't waste time talking to him and attacked him directly.

Shen Ruo and the man engaged in a fierce battle. She nimbly dodged the opponent's attacks while unleashing fierce moves.

After a few moves, Shen Ruo found that the man's strength should not be underestimated, so she decided to use her ultimate move. She concentrated her energy, mobilized the spiritual power in her body, and prepared to launch a powerful attack.

At this moment, a mysterious force suddenly emerged and enveloped the entire area. Shen Ruo felt the power of this force and could not help but stop.

A figure slowly emerged in the light. It was Gu Zhen! She looked at Shen Ruo with a smile, a hint of relief in her eyes.

"Thank you, Shenruo. Your arrival allowed me to completely let go of my obsession." Gu Zhen said.

With Gu Zhen's appearance, the man and other people in the temple also disappeared.

Shen Ruo breathed a sigh of relief. She looked at Gu Zhen with gratitude in her eyes.

"This is what I should do, senior." Shen Ruo said.

Gu Zhen thought about it, and a ray of spiritual light appeared in his hand, which sank into Shen Ruo's body. Shen Ruo immediately felt a warm current surging, and his body became extremely light.

"This is a small gift from me to you. I hope it can be helpful to you." Gu Zhen said.

Shen Ruo thanked Gu Zhen again and turned to leave. Fortunately, she did not reveal her vicious nature.

If she were discovered by Gu Zhen here, her impure thoughts would not end so well.

Before long, people kept coming out to cause trouble for Shen Ruo, but Gu Zhen did not disappear in the secret realm.

"You dare to touch my people?"

"This secret place was created by me for her. You are seeking death!" The strong spiritual power spread in this space.

Many people who were planning to attack Shen Ruo stopped in their tracks, and Shen Ruo successfully left the secret realm under Gu Zhen's escort.

"The magic harp is just to fool these fools. How could the harp be in a small place like mine?"

"That piano is not something that people like us can own."

From then on, the secret realm was completely closed and would never be opened again.

As the secret realm closed, all the living people were ejected, and the secret realm collapsed.

Jiang Yan and others were thrown to the ground, and Jun Luo even fell on his butt.

"Oh, why is this senior so rude?"

"They just threw us out." Jun Luo said with some dissatisfaction.

The other people were thrown out one after another, and Shen Ruo was gently placed on the ground by a gentle spiritual power.

Seeing that Shen Ruo was put down to the earth so gently, many people were envious.

Is this the privilege of being a beautiful woman? Why don't they have it?

"Junior Sister Xiruo, are you okay?" Jun Luo saw Shenruo and hurriedly walked forward and asked with concern.

"It's okay, brother, how are you guys?"

"It's okay. We're all fine."

"I didn't find any treasures, but I did gain a lot of experience."

Shen Ruo nodded, and felt relieved to see that everyone was safe and sound.

Then everyone saw Qin Wuran, lying pale on the ground. Someone recognized her and helped her up.

She seemed to have lost her soul. When she woke up and saw someone touching her, and it was a man, she shouted "No".

The disciple who was originally supporting her was also startled and quickly stepped back.

"I didn't do anything! You saw it." The disciple spread his hands to indicate that he did nothing and she should not blackmail him.

The disciple was a little frightened and left quickly.
