Chapter 504: Compassion

The fire in the second princess's palace did not stop until it was burned down.

When something like this happened, Du Ji naturally wanted to investigate it carefully.

So after moving to a good dormitory, we immediately called in all the soldiers who were involved in putting out the fire.

"Tell me honestly, was Duma really just passing by by chance when we were walking on the water?"

The two princesses were indeed very thoughtful. Even though they said they didn't doubt Duma at the time, they still didn't let her go when it came time to investigate.

Fortunately, these soldiers had been bribed by Wang Liang a long time ago, and each of them said very seriously;

"Back to the second princess, the nineteenth princess was really passing by at that time. Before that, we also saw her being bullied by several other princes and princesses."

"Yes, Second Princess. After seeing the fire in your palace, those princes and princesses who bullied the Nineteenth Princess left. Only the Nineteenth Princess ran over regardless of the danger."

Hearing this, Du Ji thought for a moment and nodded;

"Those useless trash, when they saw the fire in my palace, they must have fled quickly because they didn't want to get into trouble."

"On the other hand, Duma didn't expect that just because I had never bullied her, she would become affectionate and righteous to me. What a fool..."

After a pause, Du Ji asked again;

"But when did she learn the art of escaping from the earth? As the descendants of Xingzun, we will never learn such an unattainable art."

The reason why the Earth Escape Technique is not on the stage is because this technique itself is used to escape, and it will not be of much use in the later stages.

After all, facing a strong man above the Golden Core level, if you can blow up the ground with just a wave of your hand, is there any point in hiding underground?

Even if you want to sneak in somewhere through the Earth Evasion Technique, your spiritual consciousness above the Golden Core level will be able to detect it in an instant, and you will be waiting to whack a mole.

Besides, many treasure houses, cellars, etc., as long as they are built by cultivators, will also have restrictions placed underground.

Techniques such as the Earth Escape Technique cannot enter at all, and you may even be hurt by hitting the restriction.

Because the palaces of these princes and princesses are within the walls of the Star Hall, there are no restrictions placed underground in each palace.

They are also confident enough that anyone who dares to use earth escape to sneak out from where they live will never come back.

It is precisely in this way that Wang Liang controls Du Ma's body and can use the earth escape technique to enter and stage a scene where the silly sweet sister saves the shrewd second sister.

But such a useless earth escape technique had never been seen by Du Ma before, which made Du Ji a little suspicious again.

At this time, a soldier stood up again and said;

"Second Princess, weren't the Nineteenth Princess forced out of the palace a while ago? Maybe she learned the escape technique in order to make a living outside."

Other soldiers quickly echoed;

"Yes, it is possible. I heard that Princess Nineteen is very pitiful outside."

"No one knows she is a princess, and because of her appearance, people outside also bully her."

"I must have no choice but to learn the art of escaping from the earth, otherwise I am afraid I will be beaten to death."

"Princess Nineteen is so miserable. We feel that she is very pitiful just from hearsay. We can't even imagine how she survived it after experiencing it ourselves..."

Listening to these chatter, Du Ji drank;

"Okay! Shut up, I understand."

Although they still looked cold on the outside, the two princesses actually felt a little pity for Duma in their hearts.

It's just that she also dislikes Duma's background and feels that if she gets involved with him, her status will be lowered.

'It just happened to help me a little. I was so panicked at the time that I didn't think of walking underground in time.'

'Otherwise, even if you dig, I can dig it out... But with my status, digging to escape is too cheap.'

'The art of escaping from the earth is always a technique that is not popular on the stage. Only a lowly person like her would learn it in order to survive. It was really a mistake...'

Du Ji thought so in her heart, trying to downplay the fact that Du Ma saved her, so as not to really feel sympathy for her.

Next, she asked if there were any other suspicious people present.

The soldiers thought for a while and then said one after another;

"While walking through the water, I seemed to see the Third Prince watching from a distance."

"It seems that the fourth princess also came to take a look, but she always stood aside and watched."

"The fifth prince seemed to have passed by with someone a quarter of an hour ago. I wonder if it has anything to do with the water leak..."

These people are all Star Clan princes and princesses who have the most power. It is perfectly appropriate to pour dirty water on them.

Moreover, Wang Liang only bribed these soldiers to raise a suspicion.

As for the rest, let the second princess investigate and make her feel like she is surrounded on all sides.

The injury on Du Ji's arm was still burning, and her head seemed to be less bright than before.

After thinking for a while distractedly, he beat the soldiers away, and then asked someone to find a lot of medicine and apply it to the wound on his arm.

But no matter what kind of medicine, after applying it, not only can't relieve the pain, but it will make the pain worse, just like adding salt to the wound.

This made Du Ji even more irritable, and she wanted to find the person who set the fire immediately and cut him to death with a thousand knives!

Just then, the timid Duma came to visit again.

In the past, Du Ji would never see her.

But this time he hesitated and let her in.

"Didn't I say, don't think you saved me because of this, and just want to have some relationship with me? Are you ignorant!"

At first, Du Ji didn't look good on Du Ma.

Duma, holding a small jade bottle in his hands, said timidly and aggrievedly;

"I, I saw that the second sister was burned before, so I thought... give this snow essence ointment to the second sister to try..."

After hearing that this girl was here to deliver medicine, Du Ji's expression softened.

However, she still shook her head and waved her hands away;

"Take it back. There's no need to try it. All the good elixirs I have here are useless, let alone your snow essence ointment."

The continuous pain in her arm made Du Ji really upset and she didn't want to deal with anyone now.

Duma insisted this time;

"Second sister, just give it a try. This snow essence ointment was left to me by my mother. It is the only thing that my father gave to her. It can also be regarded as her relic..."

Speaking of this, Duma's voice became weaker, revealing a hint of sadness, but she still quickly said firmly;

"The things my father gave me must be extraordinary. Even if they can only help the second sister a little, they are still good..."

After hearing these words, Du Ji said nothing more, but nodded after a while.

Duma happily went over and poured out a thick white, crystal clear paste from a small jade bottle, covering the wound on Duji's arm.

The moment the paste touched her arm, Du Ji screamed out unconsciously;

"Ah... so comfortable..."
