Chapter 169: Chapter 169: Blood Clan Princess VS The Newly Embraced Human Girl (Part 24)
“You must stay by my side, and when I awaken, you shall be the first I see,” Gu Shengyin said, lifting her head to Lancelot.
Lancelot looked at his lover, whose face had turned pale from weakness, with doting adoration. He tenderly bent down and kissed her lips.
“I promise, I will stay by your side without leaving, until you awaken.”
Only then did Gu Shengyin lie down in the coffin with peace of mind.
The period of weakness that ca once every five hundred years arrived again, and Gu Shengyin was sowhat worried.
This ti coincided with the original plot where Rita, driven by jealousy, planned to exchange blood with Yekaterina.
Although in this world Rita and Olinwen hadn’t had the chance to be together, she couldn’t think of any reason why this life’s Rita would harbor any dissatisfaction with her.
Gu Shengyin let her mind wander for a mont, and thought she might indeed be overthinking things. As waves of weakness washed over her, she allowed herself to close her eyes and her consciousness fell into a deep trance.
As he had vowed, Lancelot indeed personally guarded the underground chamber where Gu Shengyin lay sleeping, forbidding the entry of anyone else.
He planned to stay like that, accompanying her through this period of slumber.
That was until he received a letter from Olinwen.
The letter was indeed in Olinwen’s handwriting, and the contents within made his expression turn grave.
He glanced back at the still and serene form of Gu Shengyin, sleeping soundly, and after casting a layer of prohibition, he hurriedly left.
The place Olinwen had agreed to et was far away, and even by flying on a sword, it took Lancelot nearly half a day to get there.
Olinwen was already waiting there, pacing back and forth, visibly anxious.
“What in the world has happened?” the two asked each other as soon as they t.
Lancelot’s expression turned cold, “Weren’t you the one who wrote to to et?”
Olinwen’s face changed upon hearing this, “But it was clearly you who… Oh no!”
Seeing Olinwen’s expression, Lancelot’s mind also raced to a grim possibility, and without further words, they both hurriedly headed towards Nightingale Castle.
At this ti, Nightingale Castle was also receiving so uninvited guests.
“Where is the Princess’s resting place?” Rita asked softly, speaking to a mber of the Blood Clan who was pinned to the ground, a guard of Nightingale Castle.
The Blood Clan mber looked at Rita with disdain, “Shaless traitor, you will receive your retribution!”
A hand pierced through his chest and crushed his heart.
Rita thodically pulled her hand back, took out a white handkerchief, and wiped the blood off it clean.
“It seems they won’t speak. Everyone, go search for it!”
The basent was soon found.
Rita suppressed the excitent in her heart; she had already caught sight of the elaborate coffin.
“You, go and see if it’s Princess Bruch inside,” she ordered a Blood Clan mber beside her.
The Blood Clan mber was clearly excited, thinking it was his chance to shine.
He slowly approached the coffin, peeked inside, then turned back, “Yes, it’s the Princess…”
Countless dazzling swords appeared out of thin air and shredded him to pieces.
“As expected,” Rita sneered coldly. “Break the Formation here for !”
Instantly, Lancelot’s face turned extrely grim, and Olinwen felt a bad premonition, “What’s wrong?”
Lancelot’s expression darkened, “The prohibition I left at Katusha’s resting place, has been broken.”
Rita looked greedily at the sleeping Gu Shengyin and couldn’t resist stretching out her hand to gently touch her face.
Her expression was utterly infatuated, “Your Highness…”
