Daughter Of Rebellious Minister

North Ningxia 37th Year, 1st May.

It was the beginning of the new month, and the sky was dark. It was hard to distinguish between the shadows of buildings and trees. The moon was dark and the winds were strong, and there was a murderous intent lurking in the shadows!

A cold light flashed in her eyes. With the gentle breeze blowing, the leaves became indistinct. Liu Rufei used the darkness to conceal herself in the shadows cast by the Solemn Imperial City. She raised her head to observe the guards on top of the tower.

When the drowsiness came, the guards could not resist their fatigue. With red tassels in their arms, they lazily leaned against the tower at the city gate, yawning and being completely unguarded.

Carefully straightening the mask with her hand, different from the guard's chaotic gaze, Liu Rufei's eyes were abnormally clear and bright.

He took out a black ball from his waist pouch and threw it into the distance. The black ball suddenly shot out like an arrow leaving the bow!

"Bam!"

Smoke suddenly billowed out of a certain carriage parked not far away.

The guard captain immediately came to his senses. He held onto his falling hat and cursed under his breath as he kicked all the sleepy guards around him awake.

Then, he slightly raised his chin, pointed at the smoking carriage, and said to one of the guards, "You, go take a look!"

Liu Rufei took advantage of the chaos to leap up a tree to the side, landing lightly on the treetops, looking down at the chaotic crowd, her lips curled up slightly.

The crochet on her wrist was thrown towards the city wall, and the ice silk was thrown out swiftly and firmly to the corner of the tower wall, where no one was guarding.

Liu Rufei pulled on the crook rope to make sure it was secure, then lightly walked up the rope.

He was just like his name made him seem weightless, dashing all the way to the top of the city wall without anyone noticing.

After observing the patrol's route for a moment, Liu Rufei clearly understood the pattern. The moment the patrol turned around, she lightly jumped down from the tower.

She had successfully entered the Imperial City!

A few days ago, she had disguised herself as a little eunuch and stayed in the palace for a few days, thoroughly understanding the structure of the imperial city.

Ning Yuxi was a secret treasure passed down through the royal family for hundreds of years. Countless people drooled over it, and countless people lost their lives for it.

As the most famous female bandit in the martial arts world, Liu Rufei had always loved to collect all kinds of treasures, and she had plotted against Ning Yuxi for many years.

And today, was the day that Liu Ruo stole Ning Yu's Seal!

Deep into the night, other than the long corridor and candlesticks, everything else in the imperial city was pitch black. Liu Ruoyun was wearing a nightgown, so no one would notice her.

She followed the route in her memory. With a tap of her toes, she jumped up and down on the rooftop, arriving at the Hidden Dragon Library where the secret treasure was located.

She knocked the guard out with the sleeping incense and easily unlocked the door. The whole journey went as smoothly as she had expected.

Carefully avoiding possible mechanisms in the Hidden Dragon Cave, Liu Rufei raised her eyebrows in disdain as all kinds of poisonous darts brushed past her.

"The palace warehouse is nothing special."

He jogged to the deepest part of the warehouse. There was a light as bright as a bean and a faint yellow light was shining from the center of the cabinet. Under that weak light, there was surprisingly an exquisite small rosewood box.

After hesitating for a moment, Liu Rufei fished out a kuda from her pocket, threw it forward, and sure enough, it triggered the mechanism. The sword rain and the hammer smashed the kuda into pieces.

"Tsk tsk tsk tsk." Liu Rufei looked at the exhausted mechanism, then shook her head.

She had been learning to steal from her master since she was three and had been stealing for 15 years. To her, these things were child's play.

However, Liu Rufei narrowed her eyes. How could it be so simple to break through the palace's defenses? Didn't the rumors say that countless people had died for Ning Yuxi?

An ominous premonition arose in her heart, but it was useless as the treasure was right in front of her. How could she stop?

Liu Rufei threw the steel rope in her hand in all directions towards the Cabinet, but there was no sound at all.

Her delicate eyebrows slightly furrowed. After hesitating for a moment, determination flashed across her eyes. As if she had made up her mind, Liu Ruo leapt onto the steel rope and walked slowly towards the center.

In front of the box, Liu Rufei carefully stretched out her hand, her fingertips touching the patterns on the box, the texture was so fine that it made people click their tongues.

Even this box could be sold for a good price, much less Ning Yuxi.

She looked around warily but there was still no movement. Her doubts were not worth mentioning in front of the treasures that she could easily get her hands on. Liu Rufei picked up the box gently.

However, just as the box left the stage, Liu Rufei heard a crisp "click" that made her heart tremble in the dead silence of the cabinet.

Not good! It's a mechanism!

Liu Rufei quickly reacted and released her hand, preparing to leap back. Unexpectedly, all the walls around the cabinet shot sharp arrows at the same time, even the door she came in from shot sharp arrows.

The room was densely distributed, the gaps were subtle, and they approached aggressively. In the middle of the room, Liu Rufei didn't have any chance to dodge at all.

Poof * * Poof * * Poof * The sounds of flesh being pierced sounded out in succession, but in a flash, Liu Rufei's heart was pierced by tens of thousands of arrows.

Liu Rufei only felt bone-piercing pain from every inch of her body. She spat out a mouthful of blood, and like a hedgehog, she was covered with arrows as she fell heavily to her knees.

The second before she lost consciousness, with her eyes filled with blood, she saw the rosewood carved box on the stage emit a faint glow like the moonlight.
