Chapter 54 Xue Chenxi's Injured World Achieved

"Ah!"

A shrill scream echoed from the bottom of the well, and the surrounding earth began to shift and sink slightly, with stones gradually sliding down from both sides.

"Don't let go, hold tightly to the whip!" Jing Sa shouted from the well's mouth, while Xing Zhu and the others at the back held onto the ropes.

Xue Chenxi, frightened by the shifting ground, rushed to the side in a panic, while Governor Xue and the others instinctively moved to a safer area.

"Xiran, don't come over, go to a safe place!" Jing Sa's forehead was covered in veins as he saw Feng Xiran trying to approach and sternly ordered her to stay back.

Feng Xiran ignored Jing Sa's harsh tone and led the others to retreat to the back.

Aside from Zhang Da, the other villagers, scared out of their wits, let go of the ropes and ran away.

Due to inertia, Jing Sa and the others' feet slid a few steps forward. When they neared the edge of the well, they quickly stabilized themselves to prevent their bodies from sliding down.

"Damn it, why are you hiding? Grab the rope!" Xing Zhu yelled from behind, turning around to wrap the remaining rope around her waist and using the hilt of her sword to anchor it to the ground, preventing the rope from slipping forward.

Thanks to the efforts of Jing Sa and the others, the person called Xiao Wu was pulled up, and Zhang Da quickly dragged her to a safe area.

Jing Sa and the others also quickly retreated to safety.

There was a loud "boom," and a large section of the ground where they had been working collapsed, raising a cloud of dust.

Xiao Wu and the others looked at the collapsed ground in shock, seeing the fear in the eyes of others.

Xiao Wu's forehead was injured by falling stones, bleeding. The officials had the villagers carry her down to bandage her wounds.

"Thank you, Your Highness. If it weren't for you, Xiao Wu would have died. I still have a husband, children, and elderly at home." She was filled with fear just thinking about it and wanted to kowtow to Feng Xiran, but Feng Xiran told her to be carried away quickly.

"Please, Your Highness, intervene, it's..." Zhang Da tried to report the situation but was interrupted by the officials, who gave her a stern look and softly scolded, "Are you trying to get yourself killed?" Then, with a foolish smile, they had her pulled away.

Feng Xiran looked at Xue Chenxi and Governor Xue with a cold, scrutinizing gaze, and then used the system's water source map to redraw the area of interest.

She then had the officials find new iron tools for Xue Chenxi and the others and said, "Let's get started!"

Xue Chenxi was obviously dissatisfied with this arrangement, thinking it ridiculous for her to dig like the villagers.

"Feng Xiran! Don't go too far, I am the daughter of a high-ranking official."

Feng Xiran crossed her arms and gave her a sideways glance, exuding arrogance that made one want to strangle her. Her reply was just as annoying: "The daughter of a high-ranking official? Oh, I'm so scared! As for status, I am a crown princess here; besides my aunt, I am the highest authority. Besides status, you almost caused a death with this. If I report this, do you think your mother will break your legs? How will your mother face it?"

Feng Xiran pointed to the large pit on the ground: "What about this pit? What do you propose to do about it? Are you going to fill it?"

"It's not like anyone died, right?" Xue Chenxi muttered quietly.
