Perhaps sensing Leng Mei's terror, Sun Shang, after launching an attack, didn't dare to linger and instead turned to run.
His direction of escape was actually the Imperial Palace.
This guy was indeed clever.
This place was closer to the Imperial Palace, and as long as the guards there noticed what was happening here, he would be able to survive.
Watching Sun Shang flee, Leng Mei did not pursue him, but merely scoffed with disdain and then flicked her fingers lightly.
A black plum blossom shot through the night like a black meteor.
"Ah—!"
With a scream, Sun Shang fell to the ground like a bird struck by an arrow, one of his legs cleanly severed.
The seemingly underestimated plum blossom carried a terrifying Sword Qi, forming a giant gear-like deadly weapon.
Sun Shang's face was full of horror.
He didn't know where this assassin had come from, nor did he know why the assassin was so terrifying, but he was very clear that he was probably done for.
