y on the luxurious couch, munching on an apple, completely without a shred of awareness that he's been caught. He lazily says, “Calm down, calm down, with your princess here, your little life won't be..."But Father Emperor is already far away, and we don't know how to break the seal. How can we get in" Shangguan Jinghong looked at the artificial hill garden with lingering fear, and for a moment, she felt troubled.

"Who told you I don't understand the art of cracking codes When it comes to the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams, no one here can match me, not even your father." Su Qingying curled her lips, glancing at him with a hint of confidence in her eyes.

To play Qimen Dunjia with her Well, he's destined to be disappointed. Su Qingying is a genius in this area!

"Wow, you even know how to do this Is there anything in the world that you can't do" Shangguan Jinghong reached out a trembling hand and pointed at her, looking completely shocked.

Holy crap! Compared to this monster, he's totally useless! He's completely worthless!

“Stop talking nonsense, follow my steps and don't make a mistake.” She tugged him along, Su Qingying pondered for a moment before stepping out…

Meanwhile, on the other side, at the Prince Regent's Mansion.

"Cough cough..." A strong sense of unease caused Jun Liye to wake from his coma. Before he could make out the scene before him, Xuan Yuan Rongfei walked over at the sound, her voice filled with excitement, "Master, you're awake! How are you Are you feeling any pain anywhere"

Seeing her, Jun Liye couldn't help but be taken aback. His gaze swept across the room, but he couldn't find Su Qingying anywhere. His heart skipped a beat, and he anxiously asked, "Where's Ying'er Where is she"

"Uh, Master, Master... she, she..." Under his piercing gaze, Xuan Yuan Rongfei felt an inexplicable fear creep in. Recalling Su Qingying's instructions before she left, her eyes darted around nervously, and she stammered for a long time.

"Honestly!" A bad premonition grew in her heart, threatening to consume her entirely. Jun Liye lost her patience, her voice turned cold and sharp, her gaze unconsciously carrying a hint of overwhelming pressure.

Under his so compelling gaze, Xuan Yuan Rong Fei was almost defenseless. Her heart skipped a beat, and she could only tell the truth, "Master is worried that your poison will seep into your five internal organs and six fu organs. An hour ago, she went to the Bei Ling Palace with Jing Hong to find an antidote for you."

"What did you say! Damn it, those two idiots! That man is not so easy to deal with!" As soon as these words came out, Jun Liye's face turned dark as if water could drip from it. Fear, worry, and unease surged up frantically, tormenting his heart.

"Hey, Master, the poison in your body hasn't been resolved yet. The master repeatedly instructed me to take good care of you and prevent you from running around. Where are you going" Seeing him get up from the bed, Xuan Yuan Rongfei was startled and immediately stepped forward to block him, forgetting her fear for a moment, and saying nothing about letting him leave.

Long Yin concealed his soft sword at his waist. Jun Li's voice was as cold as the night as he said, "This king will enter the palace immediately. We must bring them out safely before he finds them, or they may be in danger!"

Shangguan Jianren was by no means an ordinary person; he was far more dangerous than he appeared.

Hearing him say this, Xuan Yuan Rong Fei's heart skipped a beat again, she was genuinely worried about the safety of the two of them, "But your injury..."

"It's alright, you stay in the mansion. This king will have someone protect your safety. If we can't return in time, have the dark guards take you to the secret room in the mansion. Remember, no matter what happens, do not leave easily unless we come back for you." Jun Liye knew Su Qingying had deep feelings for Xuen Yuan Rongfei. He didn't want her to lose anyone else by her side, he was afraid she would be stimulated again.

"Well, Master, I understand. You must bring Master and Jinghong back safely!" Taking a deep breath, Xuan Yuan Rongfei nodded.

She's just not skilled enough. Going would only add to their burden. Right now, all she can do is protect herself until they return.

Two flowers bloom, each representing one branch.

"Alright, this is the last step now, Shangguan Saobao, follow closely. Take this step and we'll be out of this formation." Don't be fooled by how short this path seems, every step hides a deadly trap. Even someone as clever as Su Qingying has to proceed with utmost caution.

"Don't worry, I've been following you all along." Shangguan Jinghong was doing well following her, but then she suddenly turned around and spoke, scaring him half to death. He almost tripped over his own feet.

The last step fell, and the scene before them instantly changed. Standing before them was none other than Shang Jianren, who had been the first to enter this formation!

Shangguan Jianren saw them appear, but he wasn't surprised at all. There was no ripple on his face, as if he had known all along they were following him.

"Humph, I didn't expect you lot to actually have some capability, breaking through this Five Elements Bagua Formation. It seems I underestimated you!" Shangguan Jianren's lips curled into a chillingly cold sneer.

He had known all along that they were following him, thinking he could trap them this way. Unexpectedly, Su Qingying was so alert and even more proficient in this formation than him, which came as a considerable surprise to him.

The legendary Princess of Luoyue Palace is truly extraordinary!

"Father!" Shangguan Jinghong frowned, subtly shielding Su Qingying behind him, not missing the dangerous, predatory glint in his eyes.

Upon seeing this, Su Qingying was slightly taken aback, her dark phoenix eyes flashing with a hint of warmth.

Just by his unconscious little movements, she knew this friend was hers to keep!

However, Su Qingying had never been one to hide behind others. She was no mere flower in a greenhouse!

Su Qingying walked out from behind Shangguan Jinghong, calmly accepting Shangguan Jianren's scrutiny.

Facing his gaze, Su Qingying smiled slowly, but the smile didn't reach her eyes. Her phoenix eyes seemed to be filled with ice, with a bone-chilling coldness, "So you knew all along that we were following you, yet you didn't expose us, deliberately leading us here, just to use this formation to kill us, Emperor Beiling, you're truly hiding deep!"

"Su Qingying, the Palace Master of Luoyue Palace, you're not simple either. Even the five elements and eight trigrams can't hold you." Shangguan Jianren coldly glared at her, a flash of killing intent quickly crossing his face.

Such an intelligent woman, if she cannot be used by him, she can only be completely eliminated!

“I’m truly sorry to disappoint you. But I’m curious, no matter how Shangguan Saobao talks, he is still your flesh and blood. You are willing to kill me, not hesitating to lead us here, aren’t you afraid of accidentally killing him too” This was the part Su Qingying couldn't understand the most. If she hadn't just happened to know the art of the Five Elements and Bagua, not only would she have died, but Shangguan Jinghong would have escaped death as well!

Furthermore, most importantly, he never intended to show mercy from the start. Every move was a perilous assassination technique!

Upon hearing this, Shangguan Jinghong's face couldn't help but change slightly. He obviously guessed what she was thinking.

"Hmph, for the sake of Jun Liye, he repeatedly defied me. I have no such unfilial son. It's better if he's dead, so that I don't have to do it myself." Speaking of Shangguan Jinghong, Shangguan Jianren's eyes showed no remorse or warmth, only disgust and coldness, as if he wasn't his own biological son at all, but rather... an enemy! card - elite assassins cultivated for years. They fear neither death nor life, stopping at nothing until their goals are achieved. The most troublesome kind.""Damn it! The Lan family are truly insane...
