Continued from the previous chapter-->

Without a second thought, Murong Yunshu rushed towards the bewitching trap, only to be bounced off by a force before she could get any closer. She tried again, but it was still the same. It turned out that the bewitching trap was not just about the beautiful women dancing to charm men, but the internal energy of the seven of them complimented each other to form a barrier around them, preventing outsiders from entering.

Looking at the muddled-headed Chu Changge inside the trap, Murong Yunshu's heart burnt with anxiety. "Chu Changge, don't listen, don't look."

But Chu Changge ignored her warning and continued to turn in place as the seven beauties moved, like a hungry child chasing after food.

Murong Yunshu was well aware that she could not let herself be disorganised at a time like this. She tried her best to calm herself down by pulling the willow wood chair in front of the table and sitting down as she habitually poured a cup of tea for herself. As soon as it reached her mouth, she suddenly remembered something wrong with the tea, so she put the cup back on the table. Taking a deep breath, Murong Yunshu kept telling himself that Chu Changge was not an ordinary person and that he would be able to resist. After taking a few deep breaths, she gradually regained her normal thinking ability and began to meditate on finding a way to break the formation.

At the same time, Chu Changge, who suffered from being tormented inside the trap, was engaged in a battle between heaven and man. If not for Murong Yunshu's words of 'Don't listen, don't look', enabling him to regain his sanity from his out of control mind, he was afraid he would have surrendered by now. Chu Changge turned around to look at Murong Yunshu and saw that she had moved a chair over and sat down, with the expression 'the show is good, you guys can continue'. He could not help but laugh. Ah, she really could be at ease at any time. Even when she had to bear down the weight of Mount Tain, her face didn't even change colour.

At that moment, a panting sound, like a force that could smash bamboo, forced its way into his ears, lingering. The sound stirred Chu Changge's heartstrings, and his desire boiled one more time, more intense than before, like an unstoppable rush of a river.

Chu Changge clenched his fists tightly. His nails pierced into his flesh, and he bled out. The pain in his palms banished his desire for a moment, allowing him to catch his breath again. After taking a deep breath of cold air, he looked at Murong Yunshu again, only to find that she was looking at him, too. At the moment their eyes collided, he found an unprecedented peace inside. Her clear, bottomless eyes seemed to speak, whispering to him that he could pull through this.

Suddenly, Murong Yunshu smiled, and that smile was so full of charm in Chu Changge's eyes that it made him swoon, forgetting everything around him. He had always known that her temptations were never within his safety zone. This time was no exception. Suddenly out of nowhere, Chu Changge rushed out of the bewitching trap and headed towards Murong Yunshu. The moment Chu Changge rushed out, he broke the balance of the trap, and the seven women fell backwards with a scream at the same time.

Seeing this, Murong Yunshu was overjoyed and stepped forward to embrace Chu Changge. "Are you alright?"

Chu Changge smiled palely. "No."

Murong Yunshu's heart immediately tensed. "Has the poison attacked again?"

"Yes. I've been attacked by love poison." Chu Changge answered with a smile.

Murong Yunshu smiled and pushed him away, feigning anger. "Don't talk nonsense." Didn't he know that she was particularly sensitive to words love and poison now? God knew how worried she was that he might not be strong-minded enough and had his soul been taken away.

Chu Changge saw through Murong Yunshu's mind and stepped forward to hug her, laughing, "You seduced me so much just now. How can I not be poisoned?"

"Don't you talk nonsense! I just smiled at you. I didn't seduce you." Murong Yunshu denied it. She was determined not to admit that she had deliberately seduced him. After thinking about it for a long time, in the end, she could only think of one wayseduction. Since they had used their bodies to tempt him over, she could also seduce him back. When she decided to do this, she was planning for the worst, thinking that she could get him to come over to her by taking off all her clothes. Luckily, he was cooperative, and she only smiled a little before he turned back. Otherwise, if she had to strip herself naked, he would laugh at her for the rest of her life. Fortunately, fortunately.

Chu Changge knew she was thin-skinned, so he went along with her and didn't say anything but only whispered in her ear, "Your smile is a deadly seduction for me. Even if they tried everything they could, they couldn't beat your faint smile."

Murong Yunshu's ears tingled with shame and joy at her words. She clenched her pink fist and hammered him lightly on the chest, pouting. "Such a glib tongue."

"Ouch. Are you trying to murder your own husband?" Chu Changge covered his chest and shouted.

Murong Yunshu hurriedly withdrew her fist, feeling chagrined. She had forgotten that he was injured. After helping Chu Changge to sit down, Murong Yunshu picked up the pot of tea mixed with aphrodisiac on the table and poured a large sip of it to the seven women in turn. In the end, she threw the teapot onto the floor, bent down and took a dagger out of her boot, then cut each of their wrists. Not too deep, not too shallow, just enough to let the blood flow out but not too fast.

The seven women were severely injured by the overturned of the bewitching trap and lost all of their power, so they could only let her do whatever she wanted. Fear was written all over their faces.

Murong Yunshu put away the dagger and looked down at them, and said indifferently, "You don't have to worry. The wound is not that deep. Nevertheless, as long as you find a man to make love with, not only will you be able to relieve the effect of the aphrodisiacs, you will also be able to speed up your death. If you're thinking of ending your suffering by dying quickly in the hope of being reincarnated, perhaps you'll come across a perfect time to be reborn as an animal. In this way, there will be no need for you to suffer the hardships of this human world."

Chu Changge bowed his head and snickered. She sure had her own logic. The words she spoke were seemingly incoherent, but they were extremely threatening. If the seven women wanted to save themselves, they would have to endure the suffering of their bodies in arousal. If they could not bear the fire of lust and sought out men under the influence of the aphrodisiac, they would speed up the blood flow in their bodies. The blood would flow like it had broken its barrier, and they would die of blood loss in less than half an hour.

High-level attack, indeed a high-level attack! Chu Changge wished he could clap his hands and cheered in admiration. That was a great move to treat others the way they should be treated. Not by taking their lives, nor leaving a way out for them. She just let their life emerge and perish on their own. They were left to be between their desire and their life, unable to beg for death. This situation was exactly what he suffered just now.

The seven women also understood Murong Yunshu's unspoken words, and their faces suddenly changed as hatred filled their eyes. "You better kill me!" One of the women said fiercely, "If you don't kill me today, I will absolutely kill you one day!"

Murong Yunshu's face did not change as she responded, "I'll wait."

The woman opened her mouth to speak again, but she felt a dizzy spell in her head. It turned out that she had been too emotional and had caused her blood to flow faster. The woman hastily held down the wound while trying frantically to escape and then left. As soon as she took off, the other six followed suit. Murong Yunshu also went out, but she was there to observe the stone formation.

Chu Changge also followed her out, and without even thinking about it, he knew that she wanted to try to break the formation. "How sure are you?" He asked as he stood beside her.

"You mean how sure I am in breaking the formation?"

"Hmm."

"So far, zero."

"......" Fancy that, he had high hopes for her. At least say something to encourage him.

Murong Yunshu added, "But I didn't come here to break the formation."

Chu Changge: "If you don't want to break the formation, what are you doing out here staring wide-eyed at the stone?"

"To change the formation." Murong Yunshu looked at the massive stone before her and said profoundly.

Change the formation? Chu Changge was stunned for a moment before he understood and said, "In our current situation, even if we break the stone formation, we will not be able to escape the siege from the people of the Lihen Palace. But if we change the stone formation to stop their next attack, we will be safe for the time being. You are really clever!"

"I'm not really clever; I'm just a little bit smarter than you."

"......" Did she despise his intelligence?

Murong Yunshu was glad that he understood her intentions so quickly, and it was much more pleasant to communicate with him without the need to explain. She found that he was beginning to have a tacit understanding of her. Thinking of tacit understanding, Murong Yunshu looked at him sideways and suddenly felt that he seemed to have changed. Especially after what happened just now, when he said sweet nothings in her ear that made her blush. It felt so natural that she thought he had recovered his memory for a moment.

Seeing that Murong Yunshu kept staring at him but did not speak, Chu Changge asked, "Do you have something to say to me?"

Murong Yunshu looked back, "No."

"Oh." Chu Changge said, "But I have something to say to you."

Murong Yunshu's heart instantly beat like a drum, but her face was unruffled. "What is it?"

"I'm going to pass out."

Huh? Before Murong Yunshu could react, Chu Changge collapsed on top of her, crushing her. After struggling to drag him onto the bed, Murong Yunshu let out a big breath and muttered, "Why don't you run and lie down on the bed when you know you're going to pass out? So much nonsense." After she finished complaining, she knelt on the side of the bed while caressing his forehead. After a long time, she let out a low sigh. "I thought you were going to tell me that you had recovered your memory." There was a strong note of disappointment in her voice.

As she leaned down and dropped a light kiss on his forehead, Murong Yunshu once again went out and walked to the stone formation, seeking to change the layout of the stone formation as quickly as possible.

It was not that difficult to change a five-element formation, but the stone formation was an exception. If you were not a martial arts expert or born with divine powers, you would not be able to do anything about it, even if you had the talent to upend heaven and earth.

There was no way to count on martial arts masters to be around here, which was even more impossible to find one with natural divine power. If she had the potential, she would have easily brought Chu Changge out from the trap just now.

What was the best way? Murong Yunshu stared at the stone formation in dazed.

The wave had not yet subsided on this side, but the tide started to rise again on the other. After hearing the report from the woman in purple, the person on top of the divine altar was silent for a while before asking, "Where are the seven of them?"

The woman in purple answered, "They are in the Colour Palace."

The person suddenly flew into a rage and snapped, "Useless things! For the sake of lust, they don't even want their lives. Such people are not worthy of staying in my Lihen Palace. They deserve to die!"

The woman in purple looked gloomy at her words and hung her head.

"Pass this order down. No one is allowed to go near the Color Palace within a month. I want to see how many people can't live without a man."

"As ordered." The woman in purple added, "Then who will be sent next to deal with Chu Changge and Murong Yunshu?"

"This palace will personally go."

When the Master of the Lihen Palace arrived in front of the stone formation, she was unexpectedly blocked from entering. "Very good, Murong Yunshu. For her to even think of such a trick as changing the stone formation!" With a cold laugh, the Lihen Palace Master leapt into the formation. She wanted to try out how powerful the altered stone formation was.

Soon, the Lihen Palace Master found that the altered stone formation was much more powerful than she had imagined, at least twice as powerful as the original. "Why does it look the same as the original stone formation, yet it is worlds apart when trying to break it?" With a low murmur, she stopped her attack and re-observed the layout of the stone formation, making sure that each boulder was in its place and had not been moved. Moreover, Murong Yunshu's physical strength made it impossible for her to move the boulders. But why had the formation changed? How did she do it?

The Master of the Lihen Palace was puzzled, but finally, she reluctantly glanced at the back of the stone formation. Then she turned around and left with a flick of her sleeve, thinking: Not many people in jianghu are proficient in the five elemental arts and strange formations. Just grab one and ask him. Suddenly, a face appeared in her mind, gently saying to her"If Qingyan wants to learn, I will teach it to you, and you alone."

"Nonsense! It's all nonsense!" She waved her broad sleeve into the air as if she wanted to wipe away the memories in her mind or the fantasies in her heart and said with hatred, "Bai Yefeng, you will regret it!"

Meanwhile, within the stone formation, Murong Yunshu breathed a massive sigh of relief that she was safe. But only temporarily. The expression on the Lihen Palace Master's face as she left was clearly saying, I will fight you for another three hundred rounds when I bring in my reinforcements.

Murong Yunshu sighed lightly. She had to wake Chu Changge up as soon as possible or find another coolie. Otherwise, it would be troublesome if the Master of the Lihen Palace found an expert and then came back to kill them.

They were entirely won by doing something that the Master of Lihen Palace least expected. Since Murong Yunshu had anticipated that the Master of the Lihen Palace would send someone to come over, and Chu Changge would not be able to wake up for a while to help her change the stone formation, she took the risk in desperation. She set up another formation inside the stone formation. That was why the Master of the Lihen Palace fell for it and was so intent on breaking the stone formation that she was trapped by the hidden formation she had set up without even realising it. But this method was only good enough to deal with ordinary people. If you met a formation expert, you would only die. The only way to defeat the enemy was to alter the stone formation. [+]

With this in mind, Murong Yunshu looked back at Chu Changge, who was sleeping on his bed and could not help but worry. She wondered what kind of poison he had been poisoned with. She hoped it was not too serious.

The following day, Murong Yunshu woke up and realised a very serious problemthere was no food around. Her belly was empty, and she was hungry. She had actually woken up hungry. At that moment, Chu Changge was lying quietly beside her, breathing smoothly and steadily.

"Chu Changge." Murong Yunshu called out softly in his ear.

"Hmm?" He was not even moving, and his eyes were still closed.

Murong Yunshu's eyebrows twitched slightly. It couldn't be that he was talking in his sleep, could it? After a few seconds of silence, she asked again tentatively, "Are you awake?"

"Mm." His eyes were tightly closed and motionless.

Murong Yunshu stared at his face oddly. "Why don't you open your eyes when you're awake?"

"Saving my strength."

Saving your strength? Murong Yunshu frowned for a bit as she questioned, "Can't even muster the strength to open your eyes?"

"No."

No what? No?

He truly cherished his words like they were gold.

Murong Yunshu patiently continued to ask, "Why do you want to save your strength?"

"Hungry."

"......" Three black lines drifted across Murong Yunshu's forehead as she said in a slightly cold manner, "If you're hungry, get up and find something to eat. Don't just lie in bed and play dead."

"Look, no. Sleep, save energy."

He is still being stubborn! Murong Yunshu said with a darkened face, "If you've forgotten how to speak human, just say so. I can teach you."

"Ai" Chu Changge let out a long sigh and opened his eyes. "It's not that I don't know how to speak human. I'm just saving my strength. I woke up and turned the house inside and out, and there was no food whatsoever. The only pot of tea we had, you had thrown it away yesterday. Otherwise, we could have used it to appease our hunger."

Murong Yunshu raised her eyebrows. Was this man addicted to drinking aphrodisiacs? Or was his lust had damaged his brain?

"Don't raise your eyebrows. Raising your eyebrows will drain your energy."

"......why don't you just stop breathing?"

"Uh."

"I won't disturb you while you're waiting to die. See you again." After saying that, Murong Yunshu got up and out of bed.

Seeing this, Chu Changge jumped up abruptly, grabbed her arm and asked nervously, "Where are you going?"

Murong Yunshu turned back and said, "Outside."

Hearing her answer, Chu Changge became even more nervous and asked, "You're not going to leave me by escaping alone, are you?"

"......you think too highly of me." If she could escape, she would have already fled and brought help. Why would she still be sitting here with him and waiting for death? Oh, that was wrong, sitting while waiting to die without any food around. It would be better if there were food. At least there would be something to do, and it wouldn't be too dull. Please read this chapter at xinshou blogspot com.

"So, what are you doing out there? You're not thinking of dying together with them, are you?" Chu Changge was shocked by his own thoughts.

Dying together? He thought she was a bomb, the one that could blow up hundreds of them.

Murong Yunshu looked at him speechlessly and responded nonchalantly, "Sunbathing."

What, an, embarrassment. Chu Changge let go of his hand, laughed dryly twice, and stated, "The sun is nice today, suitable for sunbathing."

"......" I don't think there's anything to wear here. Murong Yunshu pursed her lips and said, "Don't laugh. Be careful, or you'll die laughing. After all, laughing is also a physical task."

"......" He only said to save her energy. He didn't say she would die if she used it up!

When Murong Yunshu went out, Chu Changge felt there was no point staying in the room alone, so he followed her out.

"You should stop. Walking is too physically demanding."

"......"

"Sit down in place, no, lie down in place. That will save more energy."

The corners of Chu Changge's mouth slightly twitched as he asked weakly, "How long are you going to make fun of me for this?"

Murong Yunshu thought for a moment and replied seriously, "It depends on when you die."

Chu Changge's face was full of black lines as he laughed at himself. "I will strive to live a long life and entertain you properly."

"A long life is not necessary. Just don't die before me." Murong Yunshu said in a very light-hearted manner.

However, Chu Changge was moved, and a warm feeling slipped through his heart. He joked as if it was unintentional, "I will live a few minutes longer than you so that you can make fun of me until you die."

"Don't."

Ugh. He had been shunned. Chu Changge looked hurt. "Why?"

"Just to collect my corpse for a few minutes is not enough for me."

"......"

"And I want a big funeral."

A good-sized flock of crows flew by. "So, do you want to have a cremation or an earth burial?" Chu Changge asked.

"Cremation."

Black lines sprang up between his forehead. Chu Changge murmured with a black face, "You've really thought about it."

Murong Yunshu raised her dark eyebrows and did not deny it.

"You wouldn't have even written a suicide note, would you?"

"Before it rains, better bind everything around with silk."

"......" Is it appropriate to use this idiom here? Chu Changge held his forehead, "Are you afraid that one day you'll die in the street and you won't have enough time to brief everyone on your funeral affairs?"

"No."

"Then why did you write a suicide note?"

"Out of boredom."

"Huh?"

"I was bored one day, so I wrote it." It was bound to be written sooner or later anyway.

"......" She must have been pretty bored. I have heard that people who were so bored of reciting poetry would compose poetic essays. But, I have never heard of bored people who would write a suicide note. She is truly an oddball of the Daye Dynasty! When Chu Changge became messy because of the wind, he suddenly heard the sound of footsteps, and his face instantly turned cold as he said, "Someone is coming."

"How many?"

"Three."

It seemed that the Master of the Lihen Palace had brought in reinforcements. Murong Yunshu's brows lightly sank as she asked Chu Changge, "If they break through the formation, how sure are you of winning?"

Chu Changge did not think twice, "Zero per cent."

Murong Yunshu was speechless. "Where has your arrogance gone?"

"Yesterday, I was injured too badly and poisoned too deeply. Now I have lost all my internal strength. Apart from being stronger than you, there is no difference between you and me." Chu Changge said with a helpless face.

"Losing internal strength can change one's sexual orientation?" Murong Yunshu had a peculiar look on her face.

"......" Could she be more distorted? Chu Changge looked up to the sky and sighed. "I mean the ability to defend against the enemies." If it weren't for the great enemy, he would have used his actions to prove his sexual orientation.

After listening to Chu Changge's explanation, Murong Yunshu hung her head and pondered for a long time, then said with a face as if she was going to die, "In that case, there's an only way to go."

"Fight recklessly?" Chu Changge frowned disapprovingly.

"Surrender."

"......" It did fit her character. But not his. "I'd rather die than surrender." Chu Changge decisively refused.

"I will surrender in your place."

"......" It was the first time I heard that you could find someone to replace you in surrendering.

*

After some arguments, the two finally unanimously decidedno surrender and no resistance. Delay if you can. Find a way to delay if you can't. In short, firmly not to let the other party bring the issue to the serious topic of surrender or resistance.

When the Master of the Lihen Palace finally broke through the formation and entered, she met with this scene

A man and woman were sitting in the courtyard with a long table between them, which was empty. Despite the bare surface, their hands were moving back and forth, as if they were putting something on the table at one moment or taking something from it at another. At the same time, they were mumbling under their breath.

When the Master of the Lihen Palace listened carefully, she could clearly hear the two people's conversation.

"What do you think we should have for dinner tonight?"

"How about human flesh?"

"We just ate human flesh this morning. Change it."

"I can't think of anything edible other than human flesh."

"All right. Human flesh it is then. You have a sweet tooth, so we'll eat your meat tonight. Southern girls have sweet meat."

"Why is the meat of a southern girl sweet?"

"Because of the big difference in temperature between day and night. I heard that where there is a big difference in temperature between day and night, the meat of animals will be sweet."

"The meat of a great northern people is excellent. I like eating such excellent meat, and I'm going to eat yours tonight."

"Okay. Do you want it to be steamed or braised then?"

"Is deep-fried okay?"

"Yes. But we don't have any frying pan."

"Then let's eat it raw. It'll save you the trouble."

"Okay. It's a deal."

"I'm thirsty."

"Just hang on a little longer. After this game, I'll go and bleed you some blood."

The discussion continued, but the Master of the Lihen Palace could not listen any longer. Eating meat and drinking blood was understandable. When a man was hungry and thirsty to a certain extent, he was even more of a beast than a wild animalbut playing chess? That was a bit ridiculous! There was nothing on the table, so what kind of chess game was that?

Are these two mad or just plain sick?

"You two are in good spirits." The Master of Lihen Palace coldly reminded the two people who were still 'playing chess' that it was time to welcome the enemy.

However, Murong Yunshu and Chu Changge continued to play chess on the empty table as if they hadn't heard her while discussing what to eat at night on the day after tomorrow.

They already thought of what to eat at night on the day after tomorrow? Were they planning to live the rest of their lives here by eating each other's flesh?

What a pair of lunatics!

The Master of Lihen Palace's left hand snapped forward as her long-sleeve flew out, and in the next second, it had tightly wrapped around Chu Changge's neck. "Have you two finished your chess game?" She asked coldly.

"No." Chu Changge looked up at her, and there was a coldness in his eyes. "I have a fetish for cleanliness." The implication was, please take back your sleeve.

When the Master of the Lihen Palace heard Chu Changge's words, she let out a hearty laugh. Her laughter was so clear and crisp that it felt a bit bizarre. "You have lost all your internal strength, and you still have the guts to talk to me like this. I am amazed."

"I am also amazed by your confidence." Chu Changge sneered, "Even if I don't use my internal strength, you are still no match for me."

Chu Changge's words sent a shock through the Master of the Lihen Palace and took Murong Yunshu by surprise. His tone of voice and expression did not seem like he was lying. Just how high were his martial arts skill? Both Murong Yunshu and the Lihen Palace Master had such a question in their hearts. But neither asked. Murong Yunshu did not ask because there was no need to do so. And the Master of Lihen Palace did not ask because she was in no position to do so.

"Might as well give it a try and see who exactly is not a match for whom!" As the Master of the Lihen Palace spoke, she violently tightened her sleeve.

Chu Changge instantly felt breathless and almost suffocated, yet his expression remained unchanged, and a mocking smile always curled up at the corner of his mouth. That smile seemed to say: I don't care to fight you.

His calmness made the Master of the Lihen Palace hesitate as she thought: I had fought him before and lost before I could get close to him. So, I can see the depth of his power. I should not act recklessly.

While the Master of the Lihen Palace was hesitating, Murong Yunshu silently pulled out a short dagger from her boot, walked up to Chu Changge and slashed at him with the knife in her hand. Only a 'hissing' sound could be heard, and the sleeve at his throat was torn into two pieces. Then, she turned back to the anger-filled Master of Lihen Palace and said, "I don't like my man to have another woman's clothes on him." During the whole process, she remained taciturn and incomparably calm.

You don't like your man to have another woman's clothes on him? The Master of the Lihen Palace suspected that she had misheard Murong Yunshu's words. She was merely strangling Chu Changge's neck. When did this issue of an affair between men and women rise?

For his part, Chu Changge swore to the heavens in a very cooperative manner, "I'm innocent. It was she who insisted on rubbing herself against me."

Murong Yunshu snorted coldly. "Even if she did, shouldn't you dodge it in the first place?"

"I wanted to. But I didn't have time to do so."

"How come it doesn't look that way to me?"

"My loyalty to you is evident in heaven and earth and also in the sun and moon. You must believe me."

"I will believe you if you let me see heaven and earth and the sun and moon."

"This......this......the Gods in heaven have been busy lately and can't come down to earth to take care of us two for a while. Let's settle this ourselves behind closed doors."

Then, the two went into the room together and literally closed the door.

Outside the room, the Master of the Lihen Palace looked like she had seen a ghost, not understanding how things had come to this point. She had come to threaten Murong Yunshu to hand over the mechanism diagram of the silver warehouse......

After a moment of bewilderment, the Master of the Lihen Palace finally came back to her senses. She opened the door with a slap of her hand while retorting, "What an adulterous man and a loose woman! How dare you tease this palace!"

Inside the room, Chu Changge did not even look back and said, "Let me correct you. We are a legitimate husband and wife." Then he seriously said to Murong Yunshu, "She said that we are an adulterous man and a loose woman."

When Murong Yunshu heard what had been said, she was silent for a moment before saying, "Can I sue her for slander? I'm very short of money these days."

"Even you are short of money, is there anyone in this world who is not short of money?"

"I'm sincerely short of money. Do you have money in hand? Lend me some."

"How much do you want?"

"Ten thousand taels."

"That's too much."

"How about five thousand?"

"Still too much."

"Just say how much you have."

"Let me count it first. One, two, three......a copper coin."

"......keep it for your own use."

"No, Madam has it hard, and I can't even help. You can have this one coin."

"You keep it."

"You take it."

Thus, Murong Yunshu and Chu Changge began to argue as if no one was watching over who should get the one coin.

The Master of the Lihen Palace was dumbfounded. These two were getting into it too easily!

After observing Murong Yunshu and Chu Changge for a long time, the Master of the Palace suddenly let out a loud laugh and said, "So that's how it is."

In an instant, Murong Yunshu's heart thumped and missed half a beat, and a sense of foreboding struck her.

"What a good empty city trick! I almost let you guys fool me!" With gnashing of teeth, the Master of the Lihen Palace moved her feet lightly, and before the words even left her mouth completely, she was already standing in front of the two people, just half a step away from them. Her right hand tightened around Chu Changge's neck, but her eyes looked at Murong Yunshu, "Hand over the silver warehouse's mechanism diagram, or else you will wait to collect his corpse."

Murong Yunshu said, "Okay, I'll wait."

The Master of the Lihen Palace flinched slightly. "I am serious."

"I'm serious too." Murong Yunshu's face did not change.

"You don't care if he lives or dies?"

"It doesn't matter."

"I don't believe yo......" The word 'you' only made one rising sound before it abruptly ended. In its place was a groan of pain. The Master of the Lihen Palace bent over to cover her bleeding belly and looked at Chu Changge incredulously, "You......you......"

"That's right. It's me." Chu Changge's face was expressionless as he pulled out the dagger used to stab her abdomen.

"You guys......"

"We deliberately provoked you so that we could wait for an opportunity to strike when you got close. When you were negotiating with her just now, she deliberately distracted you, creating the time for me to strike." Chu Changge calmly spoke out their entire ploy. At the end of his speech, he added, "As I said, even if I lose all my internal strength, you are still no match for me."If one could not defeat the enemies physically, one could try to outwit them.

"Good, good, good." The Master of the Lihen Palace said the word good three times in a row and then collapsed.

"Let's go." Chu Changge took Murong Yunshu's hand and headed out.

The two of them escaped the stone formation without any problems, but unexpectedly, they had only just left the wolf's den and entered the tiger's mouth. The one blocking them was the woman in purple who had captured them, and behind her stood a man in black. The Master of the Lihen Palace, the woman in purple and the man in black, this matched precisely with the three people Chu Changge had sensed coming earlier.
