Chapter 392: Chapter 392: Two Princesses Threatening Each Other (Thanks to the melting Ice Cube for the monthly ticket and additional update)

The guard who shouted angrily was one of Princess Ata’s most trusted people.

The number of people in the diplomatic mission sent to Great Han this time was not large, but each was an important figure in the Nanjiang royal court, and they were led by their Eldest Princess.

As a mere woman, Princess Ata’s ability to be the leader of the envoy signified her extraordinary standing. This was enough to demonstrate her rank and prestige in Nanjiang.

"Whether or not Great Han has a Divine Physician, I warn you—if anything, even the slightest mishap, befalls our Princess Ata, forget about peace negotiations between Nanjiang and Great Han. War between Nanjiang and Great Han will inevitably reignite!"

Ji Youzhi was somewhat displeased. Is this supposed to be a warning? It’s more like a threat! He was about to retort when Xiaosuisui spoke,

"What does ’reigniting war’ mean? Can reigniting war save your princess’s life?"

The lips of all the Imperial Physicians couldn’t help but twitch. The Nanjiang guard, however, flew into a rage, whipped out the scimitar at his waist, and aimed it directly at Xiaosuisui.

"You little brat, you’re courting death!"

The guard’s scimitar came so quickly and fiercely that in a flash, before anyone could react, it was already resting on Xiaosuisui’s shoulder.

Xie Pan’Er, stricken with shock, cried out, "Stop! She is the Eldest Princess of Great Han. If you dare lay a finger on her, Great Han will surely trample Nanjiang!"

As Xie Pan’Er said these words, she was completely stunned; It was only after she finished speaking that she realized what she had said, but it was too late for her to take them back.

"Don’t threaten me! I’m telling you, if our princess doesn’t make it, then your Great Han princess won’t survive either! Both are princesses; a one-for-one exchange isn’t a loss for anyone!"

The Nanjiang guard harshly threatened the Imperial Physicians of Great Han.

Filled with worry and panic, Xie Pan’Er quickly said, "Don’t be impulsive! Everything can be discussed. Don’t harm the Eldest Princess!"

"There’s nothing to discuss! I just want our princess to live! Our princess is in critical condition, yet you Imperial Physicians of Great Han are just stalling and making excuses, refusing to remove the blade for our princess! Don’t think I can’t see that none of you are genuinely trying to treat our princess!"

The rage in the guard’s voice was evident to everyone present.

Previously, everyone had been employing delaying tactics because they knew there was a Divine Physician in the Capital City, whom the Emperor had already sent someone to summon.

As Princess Ata’s guard, he too hoped that this so-called Divine Physician would be the one to remove the blade for their princess.

So, despite his anxiety about the princess’s injuries, he had endured and waited for the so-called Divine Physician’s arrival.

But now, news had arrived that the Divine Physician could not be found. Not just Princess Ata’s guard, but the other Nanjiang people also grew apprehensive.

With their hearts in their throats, they all echoed the guard’s words.

"Exactly! If our Princess Ata dies, then your Great Han princess must accompany her in death!"

"Dream on! I warn you, you’d better let go of my Suisui, or else..." Ji Youzhi glared coldly at the guard, drawing the sword from his waist. His blade pointed towards Princess Ata on the bed.

At this sight, everyone’s mind went blank, and their faces turned pale.

Because they saw Great Han’s Divine Hunter Ji Youzhi’s sword resting on the very scissors embedded in Princess Ata.

Everyone was greatly startled.

"Lord God Hunter, be careful!"

The Imperial Physicians were in a panic, and the Nanjiang guard’s face turned white.

Ji Youzhi’s cold gaze fixed on Xiaosuisui, the scimitar still resting on her shoulder. He then spoke with icy indifference,

"I’ll count to three. Remove your scimitar from my niece’s shoulder. Otherwise, this sword of mine might not stay steady."
