With a warehouse full of supplies, I stood alone as king in this chaotic world, gun in hand.

The bomb was so powerful that both the King of Wu and the Emperor guessed that Nangong Wu had come seeking revenge, but it was just a guess.

Now that the person was standing right in front of him, and he was in her hands, he was so frightened that he lost two of his three souls.

"Stop talking nonsense and tell me where your vault is!" Nangong Wu pulled out a dagger. "If you don't tell me, I'll cut off your head and use it as a football."

However, as soon as they entered the palace, the guards spotted them and gave chase.

When the King of Wu saw his men arrive, he immediately shouted, "I'm here! Quickly, save me..."

Nangong Wu's eyes flashed with malice, and she suddenly stabbed down with the dagger in her hand, pinning the King of Wu's hand to the ground.

"Ah~~" King Wu let out a scream like a pig being slaughtered.

"Anyone who dares to come closer, I'll kill them." Nangong Wu pulled out the dagger and pressed it against the King of Wu's neck, immediately cutting a bloody gash.

"Speak! Where is your vault? If you don't tell me, I'll cut off your head and wipe out your entire family to offer as a sacrifice to my mother."

When the guards saw that the blood on the King of Wu's neck had flowed down to his clothes, they dared not approach him rashly.

"Nangong Wu, do you dare to kill me?" King Wu knew that he would not survive if he fell into Nangong Wu's hands, so he was no longer afraid.

"You sneaked into my Eastern Jin Kingdom without permission, blew up my Eastern Jin Kingdom's treasury, caused chaos in the palace, and even dared to arrest me. Just wait for the wrath of my Eastern Jin Kingdom! His Majesty will send troops to destroy your Western Yan Kingdom."

"Ridiculous! Do you think I, Nangong Wu, would be afraid of a mere Eastern Jin Kingdom?" Nangong Wu swung her dagger again, severing one of the King of Wu's ears.

"Ah..." King Wu trembled all over in pain and cursed, "Nangong Wu, you little slut, when I killed your mother back then, I should have had He Zhiyu bring you here to be the lowest-ranking military prostitute in my Eastern Jin Kingdom..."

Nangong Wu plunged her dagger into the mouth of the King of Wu, cutting off half of his tongue.

"Damn it." Bei Chenyan kicked him hard.

"Pfft~~"

The King of Wu was kicked so hard that he spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Where is the Prince's treasury?" Nangong Wu asked the guards around her.

The surrounding guards looked at each other, unsure of what to do.

"Stop!" a sharp female voice rang out.

Nangong Wu and Beichen Yan looked up.

As the guards of the Prince's Palace parted to make way, a middle-aged woman hurried over, surrounded by a group of servants.

The guards all paid their respects.

"Your Highness, you've arrived!"

So it was the Princess Consort of Wu!

Zhang Qing had told them that this Princess Su of Wu was also a formidable figure. In her youth, she was a military general who had fought on the battlefield, and her family held considerable military power.

Upon seeing the King covered in blood, the Queen Consort of Wu flew into a rage, shouting, "Who are you? Release the Prince at once!"

"If you want us to release him, you'll have to pay ten million taels of silver to ransom him," Nangong Wu said.

Regardless of whether the King of Wu has that much silver, as long as they hand over all their valuables, that will suffice.

"Absolutely impossible! Are you all out of your minds? Even the national treasury can't come up with ten million taels of silver!" Princess Wu's shrill voice rose. "Once you enter my Wu Prince's mansion, don't even think about leaving alive."

"Is that so?" Nangong Wu suddenly shot out the dagger in her hand.

"Thud!" The dagger struck the Queen of Wu's neck, and her eyes widened.

She probably never expected Nangong Wu to dare kill her, and that's how she died!

"princess!"

The guards and a group of old women exclaimed in surprise.

"Ahhh..." King Wu made an "ahhh" sound from the corner of his mouth.

Nangong Wu leaned close to the King of Wu's ear and said:

"King Wu, your queen's life is but a tiny fraction of interest. Tonight, I will make your entire palace pay for my mother and for all those who died unjustly at your hands."

The King of Wu looked at her with horror in his eyes, opened his mouth to speak, but vomited mouthfuls of blood.

"If you don't tell me where the Prince's treasury is, I'll take this bastard's life," Nangong Wu said coldly.

"Don't kill my father." Another man in his twenties hurried over and looked at Nangong Wu.

"Princess Runing, is it! I, the young master, am willing to offer all the wealth of the royal palace in exchange for my father's life."

"Very good! You're much smarter than that woman lying on the ground," Nangong Wu nodded. "Then bring everything over."

She killed the Queen of Wu, but this person showed no grief, suggesting that he was not the Queen of Wu's child.

"Men, open the storeroom and bring all the valuables from the palace," the Crown Prince of Wu ordered.

"Yes!" the guards replied and hurried away.

"Waaah..." King Wu shook his head desperately at his son.

The Crown Prince of Wu's eyes flickered. "Father, money is just an external thing. You can earn it back if you lose it. I only want you to be safe."

He thought to himself: There are only two of them. Even if we give them a lot of things, can they take them with them?

Seeing that he agreed to her conditions so readily, Nangong Wu knew what he was thinking. He had sent people to move things to buy time, and he had probably already sent people to get reinforcements.

"No need to go through all that trouble, just take us to the storeroom." Nangong Wu helped King Wu up.

"Let me handle this." Bei Chenyan lifted the King of Wu up, drew a dagger, and said, "Lead the way."

The Crown Prince of Wu looked at the bleeding neck of the King of Wu, his gaze darkening. "I can take you there, but you cannot harm my father any further."

"Enough talk, lead the way," Nangong Wu said coldly. "And send all the valuables from your small storeroom to the main storeroom!"

"Someone! Do as she says." The Crown Prince of Wu ordered his men to do as she said.

When he turned around, his eyes were filled with murderous intent: This woman wants so many things, could there be someone else?

Upon arriving outside the storeroom, Nangong Wu urged, "I'm only giving you two quarters of an hour, so hurry up."

Bei Chenyan's ears twitched slightly as he secretly transmitted his voice to Nangong Wu: "This Prince Wu is stalling for time. A large number of people have already entered the Prince's residence, numbering several thousand, lying in ambush around the area. The Prince's residence is also heavily guarded, numbering around ten thousand, and many more are still heading this way."

"I know the King of Wu is in our hands; we can get them to send everything." Nangong Wu replied in a secret code.

"This Crown Prince of Wu is an ambitious man. He agreed to our conditions, but only sent people to find reinforcements. Once they arrive, he probably won't care about the life or death of the King of Wu."

"The King of Wu died at our hands, so he can inherit the title." Bei Chenyan said.

"He still wants to live to see today? How laughable." Nangong Wu sneered, deliberately making sure the King of Wu could hear her:

"We traveled thousands of miles to get here to wipe out the entire Wu King's family and avenge my mother. How can I let his descendants live?"

Upon hearing her words, the King of Wu panicked and made "ah ah ah" sounds towards the Crown Prince of Wu.

"Keep an eye on him for now, I'm going into the storeroom to pack up the things." Nangong Wu turned and went into the storeroom.
