On the rooftop, Princess Lingxiao moved as nimbly as a cat, creeping forward with bated breath. Her eyes were fixed, unblinking, on the steaming hot spring pool below, her heart a mix of anticipation and nerves. She watched as the beauty in the water rose slowly like a lotus emerging from the surface, her figure graceful and her skin as white as snow—a sight so breathtaking it left her stunned. Suddenly, however, a chill struck Princess Lingxiao from behind. She whipped her head around and was struck with sheer terror: the Crown Prince was charging straight at her, his face twisted in fury, brandishing a gleaming, sharp sword. With every step, he exerted such immense force that it felt as if he might shatter the entire roof.
In the blink of an eye, the Crown Prince reached her. The sword in his hand turned into a series of lethal flashes, thrusting viciously at Princess Lingxiao. The strikes were as swift and relentless as a storm, granting her no room to breathe. Petrified, she scrambled backward, but the Crown Prince’s assault followed her like a shadow, refusing to let up. For a time, sword lights flickered and figures darted across the rooftop as the two engaged in a heart-stopping, life-or-death struggle.
"You pervert! I am going to kill you!"
