“What is that?” Zhou Huailing cried in fright. He should have run away, but it happened too fast for him to run. He could not move, but shouted loudly, “Help me!”

He had not expected that he would run into something like this. It was a man in armor, but his head was metal. He was not like a human at all.

Zhou Huailing realized that this was what killed the villagers at Li Village.

Within a moment, Zhou Huailing felt as if he were going to die right there. He got so scared that tears ran out.

Junyi was frightened too. He did not even react that he should come to rescue the Crown Prince. He stared at what was happening, unable to think of anything at all.

With a loud sound Zhou Huailing collapsed. He was in extreme pain and felt extremely unconvinced that he had not yet taken the throne.

At this moment, he felt as if that was the end of his life.

“the Crown Prince, are you alright?” Prime Minister Chu asked.

“Am I dead? I am not delusional, am I!?” Zhou Huailing got so agitated that his head was muddled, as he looked up at what was happening.

He saw Prime Minister Chu standing in front of him and his hair was unkempt too.

He had no idea what was happening.

He glanced about when he heard the voices of guards.

Only then did he realize that Prime Minister Chu saved him at the key moment.

“Whtat is that!” Zhou Huailing shouted. He almost collapsed. He did not even think about getting up.

Chu Tian let out a sigh of relief.

He got up from the floor and dusted himself off, then told his guards to help Zhou Huailing up.

He went to check out the place where that thing was trapped as well as checking on the guards who were holding it down.

He let out a sigh of relief too.

He asked Zhou Huailing to look at it and pointed at the thing in the pit. “Crown Prince, look at that. It is fine now. That thing is trapped.”

Hearing what Chu Tian said, Junyi looked in that direction.

He could see that there was a deep pit that trapped the thing that was about to attack the Crown Prince. Guards were surrounding that place, fearing that something else would happen again.

He let out a sigh of relief.

Chu Tian said, “It is the Officer who has thought about this method, but I always felt that something was wrong. So I asked the villagers to dig some deep pits in case, and it worked!”

Chu Tian sighed in relief as well.

It was good that the Crown Prince was fine, otherwise it would be his responsibility! He would have to take the blame if anything happened.

Li Village was a really dangerous place.

Chu Tian was thinking inwardly.

Zhou Huailing found the thing very frightening. He was afraid that something else would happen!

“I am leaving, it is too dangerous!”
