After National Master Zhuge Hu and King Wu Badao met their demise at Li Chen's hands, the Forbidden Army loyal to the Royal Family was leaderless and was massively defeated by the Wang Family army.
That night, the Wang Family took control of the entire Royal City.
Other than a small group of diehards still resisting stubbornly, the vast majority surrendered at the first sign of trouble.
The clan members who relied on their royal status to act domineeringly suffered an unprecedented massacre that night.
However, there were tens of thousands of members of the Great Wu Royal Family. Many still managed to escape in the chaos.
The greatest threat among them was Ninth Prince Wu Changwen.
Wu Changwen, seeing the unfavorable situation, escaped the Royal Palace with Du Xiang during the turmoil.
At that time, everyone's attention was focused on the brutal fight between Wu Badao and Wang Chao, leaving Wu Changwen unnoticed and allowing him to escape the Royal City successfully.
