Suddenly, Rulu thought of an important question. He stared at Prince Suwen's face and slowly said, "I remember that your relationship with the 75th Empress is not very good, Prince Suwen. I ask you, were you involved in the assassination attempt against the 75th Empress?!"
Prince Suwen was taken aback for a moment, a look of struggle appeared in his eyes, as if he wanted to refuse to answer Rulu's question. But in the end, he spoke up: "I am the most mediocre prince in the Sanctuary. I can barely stay here with the help of other royal relatives and friends. The Emperor has always looked down on me and is quite dissatisfied with my presence in the Sanctuary. The 75th Empress and her child are a huge threat to me. If the child of the 75th Empress grows up, I will definitely be expelled from the Sanctuary. Therefore, I cannot allow them to live. I was also one of the planners of that assassination attempt."
"What? You bastard, you are the one who caused the death of my mother and sister!?" Rulu's pupils suddenly constricted, and he let out a furious roar, swinging his fist to smash into Prince Suwen's face. However, as a magic Ultra-capable, the force of this punch was not very strong. Although Prince Suwen was hit by Rulu's angry punch, he was not seriously injured.
"What... what else do you know? Speak up!?" Rulu was extremely agitated, shouting in anger. Perhaps because he was too emotional, a strong pain surged in his head, making it difficult for him to concentrate and continue controlling Prince Suwen.
Prince Suwen looked bewildered. He opened his mouth but said nothing. Rulu covered his forehead with his hand, enduring the intense pain, and shouted at Prince Suwen again, "What else do you know? Who else was involved in that assassination? Tell me everything you know!"
"Who is inside?!" Suddenly, a voice from outside the door called out. Then there was a loud bang, and the door exploded open. General Feihu crashed through the door, entering the hall.
"Damn it, how dare you obstruct me!" Rulu glared at General Feihu with hatred. He aimed his pistol at General Feihu and fired six shots in quick succession. Two of the bullets hit General Feihu in the chest and abdomen, piercing through his body, and bright red blood began to seep from the wounds.
General Feihu let out a furious roar. Although he was hit by the bullets, he did not fall. His eyes widened, and with a loud shout, he pushed off the ground, propelling his strong body like a cannonball, flying seven or eight meters toward Rulu.
With a dull thud, Rulu was struck by General Feihu's body, flying back four or five meters before crashing to the ground. His pistol fell to the side. General Feihu's face turned pale as he pressed his palm against the area where he had been shot and squeezed hard.
With two "thud" sounds, the bullets were forced out of General Feihu's wounds, dropping to the ground, while his wounds ceased bleeding. In less than ten seconds, the wounded area had completely healed.
"This guy is a Level 4 Refining Body Ultra-capable, capable of rapid healing. I need to take down Prince Suwen first." Rulu calmed down at this point. He struggled to get up from the ground, picked up the pistol, and aimed it at the trembling Prince Suwen, who was cowering in the corner.

"Not good, I can't let His Highness get hurt!" General Feihu's expression changed as he leaped toward Prince Suwen, covering him with his large body. Rulu pulled the trigger, firing continuously at Prince Suwen. The room was filled with sharp gunfire.
Because General Feihu used his body to shield Prince Suwen, all the bullets aimed at Prince Suwen hit General Feihu's back instead, and Prince Suwen was unharmed. Rulu emptied the bullets in his pistol, and Prince Suwen remained unscathed.
"Help! There’s an assassin!"
"Prince Suwen is under attack by an assassin!"
Outside the room, hurried footsteps could be heard as the soldiers guarding the area noticed something was wrong. They shouted while rushing toward the mansion.
"I can't stay here any longer; otherwise, I won't be able to escape. Just wait for me; this matter is not over!" Rulu glared at Prince Suwen fiercely, then ran up the stairs to the second floor and jumped out of the balcony window, flying away with the wind.
"The assassin is out! Don't let him escape!" The soldiers outside shouted loudly when they saw Rulu fly out. A large number of soldiers and armored troops rushed toward Rulu, aiming their weapons at him.
"Cover me, don't let them chase me." Rulu's eyes glinted, and he fixed his gaze on a nearby soldier who looked like a captain. The soldier was taken aback for a moment, then raised his hands and shouted, "General Feihu and Prince Suwen have ordered, do not fire! Let him go, do not pursue the assassin."
Hearing this, the other soldiers and armored troops froze in place, looking confused at the soldier who spoke. They did not pursue or attack Rulu, allowing him to escape smoothly. Rulu blended into the crowd in the square, found his car, and drove away.
Worried about being tracked, Rulu did not return directly to the secret house in the cemetery. He drove his car to a large market far from the cemetery, burned the blood-stained clothes and mask, changed into a new outfit, and walked back to the cemetery under the cover of night, returning home.
"Rulu, you’re back!" As soon as he entered the basement of the house, Nana joyfully came out from another room to greet Rulu.
"What’s wrong? Why are you still awake so late, Nana?" Rulu asked with a relaxed and carefree expression, pretending as if nothing had happened, smiling at Nana.
Nana quickly walked to Rulu's side. After carefully examining him and finding no obvious injuries, a smile of relief appeared on her face, and she said joyfully, "Great! Rulu, you’re okay. I was really worried about you getting into trouble outside."
"Nana, don't say such silly things. Don't worry about me. Your body has just recovered; you need to rest well," Rulu said gently, giving Nana a light hug.
Nana smiled and replied, "As long as you come back safely, I’ll be at ease. Have you eaten dinner, Rulu? Do you want me to cook something for you?"
"No need, I’ve already eaten outside. Nana, you..." Just then, Rulu felt a strong stabbing pain and dizziness in his head. He felt the world spinning, his vision blurred, and his body swayed before he fell to the ground.
Nana let out an "ah" and quickly grabbed Rulu's shoulders, supporting him as he fell. She looked worriedly at Rulu's pained face and asked anxiously, "What’s wrong, Rulu? What happened?"
Rulu shook his head, covering his forehead with his hand, and weakly said, "It's nothing. I'm just a bit tired and dizzy. A sleep will fix it. Nana, let me go."
"Are you really okay, Rulu?" Nana cautiously loosened her grip.
"Really, I’m fine. You don’t need to worry, and it’s getting late. You should rest early too." Rulu said this while trying to suppress the pain and dizziness in his head, walking into his bedroom.
"Then Rulu, you take care and rest well. I’m going to bed too." Nana called out toward Rulu's bedroom, then walked toward her own room. After taking a few steps, she stopped again, frowning slightly and whispering, "Huh? Why does Rulu smell like blood? Could it be...?"
