Chapter 466 Luo Hanfeng is not honest enough
Seeing this, Qi Yu, who was about to run away, looked up at the sky.
His eyes widened slightly, and he quickly said, "It's the Golden Silkworm Gu! Run!"
The Golden Silkworm Gu is just as precious as the Hundred Poison Gu, but the two Gu have different effects. The Hundred Poison Gu can prolong a person's life, but the Golden Silkworm Gu is the most domineering of all Gu.
It is extremely toxic.
After Qi Yu discovered that these Gu worms were out of control, he immediately realized that there was a powerful Gu controller behind the Yama Palace.
Upon hearing Qi Yu's words, Hua An immediately ran outside even faster.
Once the interference of the Gu worms was gone, the assassins from the Underworld Palace swiftly lunged at Hua An and Qi Yu.
Meanwhile, Xie Mingzhu looked at the sky, then turned to Ye Tai and asked, "These Gu..."
Ye Tai snorted coldly: "Just a worthless insect. Sister Mingzhu, don't worry, I will protect you."
Xie Mingzhu smiled.
Saving Ye Tai was her wisest choice.
Seeing this, the guards beside her spoke up urgently, "Miss Mingzhu, could you please ask someone to help our Palace Master? If he gets away, the Palace Master's master will definitely punish him."
A glint flashed in Xie Mingzhu's eyes, and she asked, "Helping people is fine, but can I find out who exactly was taken away?"
The guard hesitated for a moment.
Ye Tai looked at the guards with a sneer: "Since you're so wary of me, sister, then I don't need to help you anymore."
After saying that, he whistled, summoning the Golden Silkworm Gu back.
Without the Golden Silkworm Gu, the Gu worms that Qi Yu summoned began to interfere with the assassins again.
These Gu worms can be killed, but it will take time to deal with them.
By the time they finished, no one knew where they had gone.
The guard quickly replied, "Miss Mingzhu is Jun Lanjin's mother."
Jun Lanjin's mother?
A glint flashed in Xie Mingzhu's eyes.
After Jun Lanjin's mother was discovered to be having an affair with the Southern Kingdom's royal family some time ago, she stopped taking care of him. Little did she expect that he would end up in the underworld.
Is there something Luo Hanfeng hasn't told her yet?
Thinking this, Xie Mingzhu turned to Ye Tai and said gently, "Ye Tai, please help them."
Although Ye Tai was unwilling, he never refused Xie Mingzhu's requests.
In his eyes, Xie Mingzhu was a gentle and kind woman, and he liked her.
Ye Tai summoned the Golden Silkworm Gu again. This time, he took out a short flute from his pocket. The melody was long and winding, and he quickly controlled the Gu worms.
He controlled the Gu worms and attacked in the direction of Hua An and Qi Yu.
Meanwhile, Qi Yu was startled upon hearing the familiar sound of the short flute.
Why does this sound so much like the Miao people's Gu-controlling techniques?
A bead of cold sweat slid down Hua An's forehead. Even though he was highly skilled in martial arts and could lead the old princess and Qi Yu to evade these people's pursuit, he could not evade the Gu worms at the same time.
Qi Yu seized the opportunity to pluck a leaf from the treetop. Hua An grabbed him by the collar and, in that position, placed the leaf to his lips. A sharp sound rang out, scattering the Gu worms summoned by Ye Tai.
It almost affected even the Golden Silkworm Gu that Ye Tai had fed with his own blood.
Ye Tai was shocked: "How could this be?"
How could anyone in the Central Plains be more skilled in Gu poison than him?
He is the Holy Son of Miao territory, and no one in Miao territory is more powerful than him.
However, even though Qi Yu managed to dispel the Gu worms, the assassins from the Underworld Palace quickly caught up with him.
Left with no other choice, Hua An carried the old princess and Qi Yu into the killing formation.
We hope that Your Highness can arrive soon and break this deadly formation.
Hua An felt like crying but had no tears left to shed.
The assassins from the Underworld changed their expressions drastically when they saw Hua An leading the old princess into the killing formation.
It doesn't matter if Hua An enters the killing formation, but if the old princess enters the killing formation and loses her life, then they won't be able to live either.
"Go find the Palace Master quickly!"
Someone shouted sternly.
Meanwhile, Xie Xing and the child were still wandering around in the back mountain.
The back mountain was indeed fraught with danger, teeming with ferocious beasts. The child was responsible for most of the fighting, and of course, Xie Xing couldn't just stand by and watch the child help her; she followed the child and assisted him.
As a result, the two of them were already filthy, and the smell of blood on them was horribly unpleasant.
But this also masked Xie Xing's scent.
After Luo Hanfeng followed Xie Xing's scent to the back mountain, he could no longer find Xie Xing's scent.
"Palace Master, the back mountain is fraught with danger. It's a place they used for practice. They just released more than a dozen ferocious beasts that were starving and dizzy."
"If Miss Xie enters this back mountain, I'm afraid she might survive to get in, but not to return."
"Shut up!"
Luo Hanfeng's voice was icy cold.
He knew this, of course, but he didn't believe Xie Xing was dead.
Just as Luo Hanfeng was about to step inside, a voice came urgently from the other side: "Palace Master! The person who sneaked in has taken the old princess into the killing formation!"
This sound successfully stopped Luo Hanfeng in his tracks.
"A killing formation?!" Luo Hanfeng's eyes flashed coldly as he looked at the person who delivered the message.
The man trembled with fear and whispered, "Reporting to the Palace Master, they have entered the killing formation."
On one side is the old princess, and on the other is Xie Xing—which is more important...?
Of all times!
Luo Hanfeng gritted his teeth and clenched his fist.
"Palace Master..." the guard beside him said, "You'd better not upset the old Palace Master now, otherwise he'll torture you again."
Everyone in the Yama Palace knows that although the old palace master is Luo Hanfeng's master, he is also the most cruel to Luo Hanfeng.
In severe cases, they could even sever Luo Hanfeng's tendons and ligaments and then reconnect them, a process that was extremely painful.
Luo Hanfeng's face was cold.
"Palace Master..." The guard beside him was about to speak again when Xie Mingzhu's voice came from behind: "Han Feng, what do you plan to do?"
Xie Mingzhu looked towards the back mountain, tilting her head to look gently at Luo Hanfeng: "What kind of people have entered this back mountain? Does it matter?"
Of course, Xie Mingzhu couldn't know about this.
Luo Hanfeng smiled and said, "They weren't very important people to begin with. The old princess is more important, so let's go to the killing formation first."
"I will personally bring them back."
Luo Hanfeng practically gritted his teeth as he said the last few words.
He said that, then turned and left.
Xie Mingzhu didn't say anything, but turned around and watched Luo Hanfeng's departing figure.
Ye Tai also looked on, "Sister Mingzhu, he doesn't like you that much at all, and he's keeping everything from you!"
Even Ye Tai could see that Luo Hanfeng wasn't being honest enough.
How could Xie Mingzhu not see it?
She and Luo Hanfeng had shared life and death, and given her status, she now had no choice but to rely on Luo Hanfeng; otherwise, given her personality, she would have questioned him long ago.
Why wait until now, knowing full well what's going on, yet not asking anything?
