Nan Gong Ao Chen endured the intense pain in his hand and looked at Baili Hongzhuang in horror. He couldn't believe she would dare to do such a thing!
Didn't she know that all control now rested in the hands of the royal family?
Everything Baili Hongzhuang was doing now would only make her own outcome even more tragic.
Everyone was stunned by Baili Hongzhuang's decisive and ruthless actions. They had never seen a student be so ruthless, and it filled them with shock and unease.
Only Moyun Jue's eyes flashed with excitement. A woman like her was the one suitable for him.
Her courage and methods were truly stunning!
Even if he wanted to help Baili Hongzhuang and her group safely leave this place, it wouldn't be easy. But as long as his people arrived, all these problems would be resolved.
Before that, he also wanted to know what Baili Hongzhuang intended to do.
And Baili Hongzhuang's current performance was enough to impress him.
"Nine!"
"Ah—"
Another scream rang out as Baili Hongzhuang mercilessly severed another tendon in Nan Gong Ao Chen's hand.
However, despite Nan Gong Ao Chen's excruciating pain, Baili Hongzhuang's expression remained unchanged.
It was as if this was nothing more than a normal occurrence for her.
Baili Hongzhuang smiled lightly as she looked at Nan Gong Ou Yi. "It seems you don't care much about this Crown Prince."
Her gaze swept between Nan Gong Ou Yi and Nan Gong Ao Chen, and Baili Hongzhuang nodded. "That's right, your son isn't the only one. Even if he dies, you can always cultivate another one."
"Is that so?"
With a light laugh from Baili Hongzhuang, all the tendons in Nan Gong Ao Chen's right hand were broken.
As a physician, she was well aware of these things and could effortlessly sever all of Nan Gong Ao Chen's tendons.
For Nan Gong Ao Chen, a supposedly clever old fox, only with such methods could she win in this game of wits.
"Ah—"
Under such intense pain, Nan Gong Ao Chen's entire body convulsed.
In Nan Gong Ao Chen's eyes, Baili Hongzhuang now appeared like a devil. He considered himself to be ruthless, but compared to Baili Hongzhuang, he felt there was still a considerable gap between them.
Not only Nan Gong Ao Chen, but everyone was astonished as they looked at Baili Hongzhuang. They couldn't believe that such a young Baili Hongzhuang could do such things.
It was truly astonishing!
Xia Zhiqing and the others were completely dumbfounded. They had always thought Baili Hongzhuang was tolerant and easy to get along with, but they had never seen this side of her before.
Perhaps such ruthlessness would make others feel cold, but they were more moved than anything else.
Baili Hongzhuang did all this solely for them. It was because they didn't have enough strength. Otherwise, Baili Hongzhuang wouldn't have ended up in such a situation.
At this moment, Nan Gong Ou Yi could no longer remain indifferent.
He did have many sons, but Nan Gong Ao Chen was the one he had high hopes for as the successor to the throne. The others couldn't compare to Nan Gong Ao Chen, and the royal family couldn't afford such a loss.
In his eyes, Baili Hongzhuang was simply a lunatic!
However, sacrificing Nan Gong Ao Chen for the sake of Baili Hongzhuang would be an unprofitable deal.
