Princess You Xue did not understand them .
She thought, “Something has all these people worked up . Must be Wu Yu . ”
This got her on edge . With a chilly smile, she said, "Could it be that Wu Yu has put such a fright in all of you? I think it's no secret that Wu Yu has the most Dead Souls Nets now . Is that why everyone is panicking? The Dark North Battle for Supremacy is supposed to be a genuine competition . There will be winners and losers . It is very normal for you all to not be able to take first place . "
Hearing this, everyone was angry, especially her royal siblings . This strengthened their determination to capture Princess You Xue and deal with Wu Yu .
"Sister You Xue, it hasn't been that long since we last met . How arrogant you've become! You were not this dull before . You have caused the entire Dark North Capital to be humiliated, and yet here you are, acting wise . I think that love must have addled your brains!" Yuan Qinqiong said . Her tone was warm, but her words were poisonous .
"What's the point in talking? She has already lost all reason, so we must cure her . In the future, she will thank us for this . After all, we siblings are those who truly have her best interests at heart," Princess You Xuan said peculiarly .
"I think we're done talking too . Go!" Jiang Shangyue said .
They normally ignored their youngest sister . But because of her, they were currently all in a sticky situation, and they were angry .
They were also angry because Princess You Xue had recently seen great leaps in ability, improving quickly . She had been hailed as the most talented of the royal siblings, and now posed a threat to them .
They would also use this opportunity to teach her a lesson .
They truly wasted no time bantering . Given their current ability, it was a piece of cake for more than 20 10th tier Primordial Spirit Transformation cultivators to take care of Princess You Xue .

Prince You Yang immediately used an advanced dao treasure to hold Princess You Xue . The name of the advanced dao treasure was Hell of the Dark North . It was a long chain of black iron, broken into many segments . Each link was extremely sturdy and powerful, and densely covered in spirit design runes . Right now, the Hell of the Dark North trussed Princess You Xue up . Although it was not tightened, its presence alone was enough to immobilize Princess You Xue .
Princess You Xue was unfazed . She had been to the brink of death and back, and was on a completely different level from them now .
They did not expect Princess You Xue to still look at them calmly, and even taunt them . "So the finest cream of the Dark North Kingdom’s crop cannot beat someone in a fair fight, and must resort to such despicable methods . You even use your own sister to threaten an outsider . Ridiculous and shameful . The world must be laughing at us . You are the shame of the Dark North Kingdom . "
Such verbal abuse was humiliating, and only fueled their anger . Jiang Shangyue, who was already feeling indignant, raged at her . "You shameless wench . If not for you, we would not be this disgraced . And still you talk back . "
"Enough . Enough . " After all, this was still his own sister . There was no point in meaningless conversation . Wu Yu was the key here .
Prince You Yang came before Princess You Xue, and said righteously, "Whether you understand or not, still we offer you a chance to make amends . "
"Just spit out what you have plotted . Stop hedging," Princess You Xue said bluntly .
"I'll explain . " Prince You Yan himself came up . Without any embarrassment, he laid out their entire plan to Princess You Xue clearly .
After hearing it all, Princess You Xue was not only fearless, but instead laughed loudly, as though she had heard an excellent joke . Her laughter was uncontrollable, and made them even more embarrassed . They had thought that she would cry after hearing it .
"I thought you were fools . But this is the height of comedy . In my mind, everyone was an important person with ability and pride . I did not expect such a base method . You must have been driven to desperation by your helplessness against Wu Yu . "
This was too great a humiliation, and a naked slap to all of their faces .
Their anger only continued to build, and they could not even speak .

They were a little uncertain as to how to deal with Princess You Xue's fearlessness . Because they still needed Princess You Xue to send the Message Talisman .
Yuan Qinqiong said, "There's no need to argue with her . She's just being stubborn . It's easy to have her comply . Just get Duan Yi here . "
She shot a look at Duan Yi, bursting with excitement .
"All yours," Prince You Yang said to Duan Yi .
"Your Highness . " As Prince You Yang stepped aside, Duan Yi walked up to Princess You Xue . There was some doubt in his eyes, but his desire not to lose got the better of him, and he was compelled to go with this wild notion . As his inner resolve steeled, he met the hard gaze of Princess You Xue with conviction .
"Princess, everyone has your welfare at heart . I hope that you can understand the good intentions of your brothers and sisters . I, too, have your future at heart . My feelings for you are true, and I hope you can see that . Today, if I have caused offense, I will pay for my crimes in the future . " After he said this, he leaned forward .
"Duan Yi, if you dare to do this, from today onwards, I will make your murder the greatest goal of my life . Don't ever think that you will have the chance to be my dao companion . You will forever be my enemy, and I will seek your life without rest . One day, I will hang your head from the walls of the Dark North Capital, and bury my indignity . "
Princess You Xue spoke with great conviction, and each word was like a dagger to Duan Yi's heart . Such words made Duan Yi hesitate . Because he could clearly see that Princess You Xue was no longer the person he had imagined . She had grown stronger and more decisive .
For him, this was not good news .
An overly domineering Princess You Xue was like a porcupine . If Duan Yi offended her today, she would not be his dao companion simply out of shame . Rather, like she said, she would treat him as a mortal enemy .
This was a conundrum for him .
Behind him, Prince You Yan whispered into his ear, "Don't be intimidated . This girl is simply scaring a greenhorn like you . After this blows over and Wu Yu is no more, she will naturally understand . And if she doesn't, don't you still have us? What are you afraid of?"

Duan Yi turned back . Everyone was looking at him encouragingly . Today, he had gained the trust of so many . They would definitely help him in the future .
At this time, the recklessness in his heart trumped the fear of Princess You Xue . He mustered his courage anew, although he still battled his fears as he looked into the sharp eyes of Princess You Xue .
"Here goes," he cried, about to pucker up .
At this moment, Princess You Xue was helpless .
"Alright, I'll have him come over . " Surprisingly, the stubborn Princess You Xue changed drastically, surrendering and deciding to use a Message Talisman to call Wu Yu .
This was a surprise . They had not expected her to cave so easily .
"Enough . " As long as Princess You Xue was willing to cooperate, the royal siblings had no intention of letting Duan Yi cop a chance . After all, they could not let their sister lose out at the hands of this humble provincial lord's son .
Duan Yi's use was to force Wu Yu to remain here . The kiss was merely a threat against Wu Yu . If You Xue complied, he was redundant .
After all, if they handled this too badly, they would face the repercussions from their elders after they left .
Actually, Princess You Xue had surrendered at this point because Wu Yu had heard her thoughts while he was out hunting . The more complicated the situation, the more thoughts she had, and the more aware Wu Yu was of what she was thinking . Therefore, even without saying anything, Wu Yu already knew what was happening here .
"So many people posturing here . They must know how many Dead Souls Nets I have . This must mean I'm in first place . "
Wu Yu was in a good mood after learning this .
However, this bunch were the most elite people . Seeing them use such a base and shameless method left Wu Yu speechless .
"I thought that I was a shameless person . To think that I found this bunch of vulgar bastards who are even more shameless than me . " After hearing this, the Full Moon of Nanshan held his belly and laughed .
"If I were you, I wouldn't be able to stand for it . Whether it was my woman or not, I wouldn't let anybody take advantage of anyone who has an interest in me . "
The Full Moon of Nanshan would never be able to understand the complicated relationship between Wu Yu and Princess You Xue .
However, right now it was Princess You Xue who was having her dignity compromised . Wu Yu knew that she did not like Duan Yi, and at this time, he still regarded Princess You Xue as a decent friend . Wu Yu could not possibly sit by and watch her be humiliated .
Although Princess You Xue did not want Wu Yu in danger because of this matter, Wu Yu could not ignore her dismay .
"Let's go . Are you coming?" Wu Yu asked the Full Moon of Nanshan .
"Such a circus . How could I miss it? Your lover is also an elite here . Even I would normally hide if I saw them . Today I get to see you go all out . Why wouldn't I go? If you're done in, then all my hard work from before would be wasted, no?"
"Then get on . " He revealed the Somersault Cloud, and allowed the Full Moon of Nanshan up . The pair sped towards Princess You Xue's location, which had already been conveyed to them .
"You're confident in dealing with them?" the Full Moon of Nanshan asked .
At the moment, Wu Yu was not . Most crucially, Princess You Xue was trapped in the Hell of the Dark North . Even if there was no threat to her, it would be difficult to break the advanced dao treasure and spirit Princess You Xue away . And as long as Princess You Xue was in their clutches, Wu Yu did not have much swaying power .
Therefore, he was faced with a conundrum - perhaps the hardest puzzle that he had faced since the start of the Dark North Battle for Supremacy .
