"Wait a minute!"

The Lady Ye with a nervous and agitated expression suddenly stopped and looked towards An Zheng, who was standing at the door to welcome her back, "I want to change clothes."

An Zheng nodded his head, "If there's anything else, Xiao Liu'er will first take you to wash up and change your clothes."

Lady Ye's clothes were stained with blood and it was very dirty. There were still two blood hole s on her shoulders that had yet to be treated and were still bleeding. The Celestial Prison's iron chain had pierced through her shoulder. If not for Zhuge Chouyun treating her every few days, she probably would have died a long time ago. People in the Empress Dowager Su tormented her day after day, and Mu Changyan kept on sending people to save her. Just like that, she was saved, day after day, month after month, year after year.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that he was covered in blood. It was a good thing that she was a peerless beauty. Right now, she was being tortured to the point that she didn't even look human anymore.

An Zheng turned around and looked at Qu Liuxi: "Bring Lady Ye in."

Qu Liuxi and Gu Qianye supported Lady Ye from left and right as they walked into the courtyard. Both of Lady Ye's legs were trembling: "Xiao Qidao ? "Where is it?"

An Zheng replied: "I'm already asleep."

Lady Ye said with a trembling voice: "Take me to the window to have a look at him first, is that alright?"

An Zheng laughed, but his heart was hurting. "Of course, go quickly."

Qu Liuxi and the two of them supported Lady Ye into the courtyard. An Zheng took a deep breath and felt that his injuries were indeed severe. Although the broken bones were healed, and Qu Liuxi's medicine was top-notch, it still wasn't enough to completely recover in ten days. But he felt that if he didn't do something tonight, he wouldn't be able to sleep.

"Lady Ye."

An Zheng called out, and asked while smiling: "Usually in the Celestial Prison, what's the name of the person who torments you?"

Lady Ye answered: "One is called Liu Yuan, one is called Du Zhou, and there is also a female doctor who has the most malicious temper, called Pang Chunmei. "What's wrong?"

An Zheng acknowledged: "It's nothing, just randomly asked."

He glanced at Du Shoushou, who was in his heart.

"Let's go out and buy some supper. Lady Ye is probably hungry as well."

An Zheng pulled Du Shoushou and the two of them left the sect. Qu Liuxi shouted from behind: "Fatty, take care of An Zheng, his injuries have not healed yet."

Du Shoushou waved his hand as he walked away, "Don't worry, how could I possibly damage your Little An Zheng?"

An Zheng shook his head: "This is not a good use of words."

Du Shoushou seriously asked: "Then why change it to a word?"

An Zheng, "Scram ?"

The two of them walked along the street and headed out. Du Shoushou could not help but ask: "An Zheng, in the middle of the night, and with the battle at the Celestial Prison s place, can we find them?"

An Zheng said: "If I were to inquire about it at this time, of course there would be no place for me to go. From the moment I entered the Fanggu City, I had been inquiring about the situation with the Celestial Prison. I knew the names of these three people, but I just didn't know that the three of them were in charge of taking care of the Lady Ye. Needless to say, all three of them were from the Empress Dowager's side. Especially that female doctor Pang Chunmei. As a healer, her thoughts are actually so venomous, I feel that I definitely cannot hold back tonight. "

Du Shoushou said: "I don't think I can stand it any longer."

At this time, Gu Qianye's voice sounded from behind them. "You two men, are it appropriate to find trouble with a woman?"

She jumped over, and with one hand holding An Zheng's arm and the other holding Du Shoushou's arm, she said, "I'm still the most suitable."

"Why did you come out instead of taking care of the Lady Ye? We... I'm just going to buy a midnight snack. "

"Pah! Fatty, let me tell you. If those who have lied were to receive retribution, I'm afraid that you would be struck by lightning every day."

"Are you kidding? When did the fat grandpa tell a lie?" I am an honest and reliable man, a model among men. "

"Alright, alright. Tell me, which one should I look for first? I heard what you guys said earlier."

An Zheng said: "If I remember correctly, both Liu Yuan and Du Zhou have no family members. The people inside the Celestial Prison do not dare to have their family members around for punishment, for fear of retribution. They all live in Celestial Prison s and normally do not go out. "

"Then where can I find it?"

"The Celestial Prison are in such a mess tonight, do they dare to continue staying in the Celestial Prison?"

"Search around the tavern near the Celestial Prison. They won't dare to go too far, they will definitely find a convenient place to wait. Once the matter is settled, they will have to run back."

An Zheng looked at the color of the sky: "Let's be careful, the people from the imperial government must already be rushing to the Celestial Prison s."

As they were talking, they suddenly saw a man dressed in black standing at the far end of the street. He was holding a Oil-paper Umbrella in his hand. This place was still very far from the Celestial Prison, so he could vaguely see the light of fire there. This person had appeared so suddenly and blocked his way, revealing a sense of strangeness.

"Who is it?!"

Du Shoushou subconsciously asked.

An Zheng said: "Wait for me here, I know him."

An Zheng quickened his pace, and when he was near, he saw Chen Shaobai's face that seemed to be smiling yet not smiling.

"If my guess is not wrong, you all must be here to avenge the Lady Ye, right?"

Chen Shaobai asked.

An Zheng nodded: "You didn't guess wrong."

Chen Shaobai shook his head: "Then don't bother, the entire area within five kilometers of the Celestial Prison is full of soldiers, no one can get close to it. Any one of you cultivator s rushing from the Tianji Palace can annihilate the three of you. Everyone says that it's not too late for a gentleman to exact vengeance. You can't even tolerate a single night? "

An Zheng replied: "I'm not a gentleman."

Chen Shaobai said: "What a coincidence, I am not one either. "However, it's better for all of you to return tonight. You can't just leave yourself there."

An Zheng raised his hand and pointed at Chen Shaobai: "You're injured?"

On Chen Shaobai's forehead, a line of blood slowly flowed down.

Chen Shaobai acknowledged his presence, "After bringing Lady Ye out, I went back to kill a few people, but in the end, I met with a tough idea. Although I am an exceptional genius, there are times where I can be careless. Of course, if I didn't happen to see you coming over, I would have already found a place to hide and recuperate. But now, maybe it wouldn't be long before the people from Tianji Palace would come over, smelling the blood. "Tell me, how are you going to repay me for paying so much to protect you?"

An Zheng said: "Hurry up, I'm not going anymore."

Chen Shaobai replied: "En, that's more like it."

An Zheng saw that there was a long wound on his back, and blood had already soaked his entire back.

"Stop trying to be brave."

An Zheng rushed over, grabbed Chen Shaobai in one go, and carried him on his shoulder as he quickly flew back, "Today, you should let him go first. He was the one who saved Lady Ye. Fatty, think of a way to clear away the smell of blood. "

Du Shoushou nodded and found the powder Qu Liuxi gave him. These medicinal powder could hide one's presence, so it could not be considered precious, but it was Qu Liuxi's exclusive secret recipe. He sprinkled the medicinal powder into the air and it dispersed with the wind. The smell of blood immediately became much weaker.

Gu Qianye and Du Shoushou protected him from the left and right, while An Zheng gritted his teeth and ran back while carrying Chen Shaobai.

"Hey!"

An Zheng heard Chen Shaobai, who was on his back, yell.

"What for?"

"This posture is very uncomfortable, idiot."

"Shut up!"

Chen Shaobai said: "Consider this as you repaying me a favor. Alright, I won't say thank you. But idiot, how could I possibly go back with you? "

The back of An Zheng's neck suddenly hurt, and his body fell forward. When he looked again, Chen Shaobai had already disappeared. There was no one around him. It was as if he had never appeared.

Du Shoushou helped An Zheng up, and looked around. There was not even a shadow of him.

On the roof, a young man with a sword on his back supported Chen Shaobai as they stood about half a kilometer away from him.

"I'll send you back first."

The young man with the sword on his back looked in the direction of An Zheng and the others: "That's strange, the blood nurturing bead bracelet did not cause his cultivation level to stagnate. In the past, Master did not choose such a good instrument."

"You shut up."

Chen Shaobai was slightly angered: "This person is my benefactor, please be more polite when you speak of him."

The young man with the sword on his back lowered his head: "Young Lord has taught me a lesson, this subordinate will remember. Who injured Young Lord? "

Chen Shaobai shook his head: "Forget it, if you were to make a move, the entire Fanggu City would be thrown into chaos. Bring me back to heal my wounds first. I'll go kill those who hurt me myself. "

The young man with the sword on his back nodded: "Alright, then let's go back first. Master also misses Young Lord a lot."

He pushed off the ground with his feet and flew into the air with Chen Shaobai. The two of them were like two arrows as they flew straight up. It looked like a floating black cloud in the sky. It was actually a war chariot. The car was made of bronze, simple and austere. The surface of the chariot was decorated with sparse and simple stripes, which seemed to be some kind of cryptic rune. It was pulled by a unicorn, like a horse, with a horn and wings, which hung in the air.

The young man with the sword on his back brought Chen Shaobai onto the chariot. The horn gave a low cry and then pulled the carriage away, quickly disappearing into the night.

Later, people heard that a group of cultivator s from the You Kingdom had attacked and destroyed the Celestial Prison that night in an attempt to rescue You Kingdom's Duke Tan Song. The Celestial Prison and Quiet People fought fiercely and suffered heavy losses. However, after the experts from the Tianji Palace and the Ministry of Justice arrived, they defeated the Quiet People. Although Tan Song was not rescued, in order to create chaos, the Quiet People released a few prisoners from the Celestial Prison and killed some of them.

In this battle, a total of sixteen Quiet People attacked, and all of them were killed.

Embroidery Palace

Li Changlu knelt beside the bed and said softly, "Empress Dowager, there seems to be something wrong with this matter. If the You Kingdom's reinforcements had arrived, it would be impossible for them to be weak. No matter how he looked at it, this time, the jailbreak sounded like a thunderstorm falling on the ground. Furthermore, all of the people who have come are dead. This servant has asked around, and at least half of them were not killed by our men. "

Empress Dowager Su snorted, "It was all for Ye Yun, you know. You must have put in quite a lot of effort. But now that the situation of the Great Yan was tense, he was free to do as he pleased. When the war against the You Kingdom is over, I will take care of him. "

Li Changlu said: "But, you can see that the King has secretly accumulated a lot of strength."

Empress Dowager Su said: "A child playing house is nothing worth paying attention to. The people from the military are on his side, but do they dare to confront me in public? I only stood by his side and guaranteed that he wouldn't be crippled by me. As for the rest, there was no need to care about the wild grasses and grass of the martial world. In the capital, all the academies of the sect are my men. Within Great Yan, the martial arts world is also mine. "

Of course, the martial arts world did not belong to anyone.

Three days after the incident with the Celestial Prison, the search and arrest of the Quiet People s in the capital had become even more rigorous.

and Du Shoushou had wanted to go out several times but had no choice but to come back because the investigation was too strict. On the fourth day, Mad Qu finally brought back some news.

An Zheng noticed that Mad Qu's face was swollen and couldn't help but ask: "Did you get beaten up?"

The Mad Qu sighed: "Didn't you tell me to pretend to be a fortune-teller and ask around? I finally found out who Liu Yuan is. After the incident with the Celestial Prison, the two of them knew that the Lady Ye had escaped. The two of them have a common lover called Little Xuan, who lives on East Fourth Street. "

An Zheng asked: "I mean, who hit you?"

Mad Qu: "Can you not ask?"

"My people were bullied, how can I not ask?"

"That's not it either... He wasn't being bullied. Sigh ? It was after I found out where that little Xuan lived that I planned to scout her door. I was just looking for a place to sit down when a woman asked me if I was a fortune-teller. I said yes, who do you think you are? Then she said, What the hell are you! "Just give me a mouth."

An Zheng bit her lips: "About this ? I'll go and see if the food is ready. "
