The light in the tunnel was dim, the movement of King Yue and the rest had alarmed the guards, who then shouted out: Who are you?
Yue Yang did not reply, taking a step back, the concealed weapon in his hand suddenly shot out, causing the person who asked to stop.
Mu Yunyao's heart thumped wildly. Suddenly, she heard the sound of something tearing through the air, "Be careful!" She suddenly realized that the archers who had participated in taking away Princess Yu were probably hiding in the secret chamber as well.
Before the warning had even ended, the crossbow arrows had already arrived in front of him.
Fortunately, the Titan King had been prepared for this, the sword in his hand moved, chopping the arrow to the ground.
Before they could heave a sigh of relief, a volley of crossbow bolts continuously shot out from the tunnel. The depths of the tunnel was very dark, and from the outside, they couldn't see what was going on inside. However, the people inside could easily catch their silhouettes through the light of the underground tunnel.
The dense rain of arrows was like rain, causing King Yue and the rest to be unable to find an opportunity to charge in.
"Master Four, use smoke." Mu Yunyao softly warned. Since they couldn't rush in, then let the people inside be unable to move.
The Winged King brought Mu Yunyao to the entrance of the secret passage and let Yu Yi enter through the smoke. This kind of secret passage would definitely have a place to air itself. This way, as long as he blew at the entrance of the secret passage, he would be able to smoothly let the smog into the secret passage.
King Yu waited nervously by the side. A quarter of an hour later, the secret passageway stopped moving.
King Yue and Wei Jiu took the lead, their movements extremely careful, afraid that those people in the secret passage would deliberately trick them. Luckily, everything went smoothly this time, and Mu Yunyao and the rest directly followed the tunnel into the secret room.
Rather than calling it a secret chamber, it would be more accurate to call it a dungeon. The smell of blood was especially thick.
Mu Yunyao quickly walked forward and jogged towards the secret room.
In the secret room, Min Fanghua was sitting against the wall. The pearl hairpin was slightly messy and her face was pale. The hem of her dress was soaked in blood and her eyes were closed while her chest was moving up and down weakly.
"Second sister?"
Mu Yunyao's fingers trembled, not caring about the dirt on the ground as she knelt down and held her in her arms. Her fingers touched her pulse, feeling the slight throbbing of her pulse. Her expression became uglier.
King Yue silently stood at the side. After a moment, he turned his head to look at Yu Heng who had followed him in."Go invite His Highness King Yu down."
King Yu could no longer hold himself back. When he heard no sounds of fighting coming from the passageway, he quickly ran in: "Fang Hua?" When he entered the secret chamber, his footsteps became unsteady and he nearly fell to the ground.
Mu Yunyao steadied her heart."Second Brother, Second Sister-in-Law has given birth to a small child and is still bleeding profusely. I need to quickly bring her out for treatment."
King Yu gritted his teeth. His eyes were crimson red like snow."Fang Hua, let's go." After saying that, he quickly walked forward, resisted the trembling of his arms, and carefully picked up Min Fanghua and strode out of the tunnel.
Mu Yunyao stood up and was about to walk out when she suddenly heard a weak voice, "Master ..."
"Six taels?"
Mu Yunyao suddenly turned her head and discovered a figure in the dark and narrow corner of the secret room. She quickly walked over and found that it was the missing six taels.
His hair was a mess, and his body and face were covered in blood. Both his arms were draped over his legs, and one of his legs was at a strange angle.
Even though she did not fear blood, Mu Yunyao was still trembling violently, "You ... What's wrong with you? "
His fingernails were lifted up, revealing his badly mutilated fingertips. Some of them even revealed bones. Both his arms and one of his legs were broken, and his body seemed to be soaked in blood.
He didn't answer and continued murmuring, "Master..."
His arm had been broken, so he needed to be extra careful if he wanted to feel his pulse. After Mu Yunyao probed a bit, she suddenly raised her head."Joyous Union Powder?"
King Yue stepped forward quickly."Yao'er ..."
Mu Yunyao took out a pill and quickly fed it six taels of silver. She then turned her head and warned Wei Jiu, "Wei Jiu, take the six taels out."It's all wounds."
"Yes."
After exiting the tunnel, the sunlight shone down on Mu Yunyao, causing her to narrow her eyes. She felt a cold chill in her heart.
A figure quickly ran over and panted as he stopped in front of Mu Yunyao."I was just a bit late to come back and you've already tormented yourself into such a miserable state. You sure are capable."
Mu Yunyao looked at the Poison Matriarch and her face full of concern and worry. Her lips moved slightly as she asked, "Why did you come back so late?"
The Poison Matriarch gritted her teeth."I'll deal with you later. Save her first. Go see Princess Yu. I'll help you save six taels."
Mu Yunyao nodded, "Alright."
"Don't worry, it will be fine. I'll definitely return you a lively subordinate!"
Inside the room, Mu Yunyao withdrew her silver needles. Seeing that Princess Yu's breathing had stabilized and the blood on her lower body had stopped, she gradually heaved a sigh of relief.
King Yu's expression was blank as he waited outside. When he saw Mu Yunyao come out, he suddenly shuddered and walked up to her. His eyes were filled with fear. He was afraid that he would hear the bad news and that Fang Hua would leave him in the blink of an eye.
"Second sister is fine, but the child was not saved."
King Yu heaved a sigh of relief, and joy flashed across his eyes: "It's good that you're fine, it's good that you're fine, my child... We will have more after this..." Mu Yunyao opened her mouth, her heart filled with bitterness."Second sister in law, from now on ... I'm afraid that I won't be able to give birth to any more children in the future. This time, the birth was caused by someone stepping on my abdomen, which is very harmful to my body. If they had gone back even an hour later, they would have ...
He might even lose his life.
King Yu bent down and placed his hands on his knees, feeling the blood rush up in his veins. His eyes were filled with the joy of knowing that he was pregnant, and they were still fantasizing about whether the child was a boy or a girl, and how they would teach him how to grow up in the future.
The hatred spread in his heart and slowly filled his heart. He thought of the purple and green scene he saw on Min Fanghua's abdomen and couldn't help but drip blood. Their child was purposely trampled by someone and wasn't ...
He wanted to avenge his child, he wanted to make the murderer pay with his blood!
After a long while, King Yu finally straightened up."Thank you, Fourth Sister-in-Law. Fang Hua still needs your care."
"No need to be polite, second brother. I will definitely help second sister recuperate. It's just that when second sister wakes up, the person she wants to see the most is you." His body was well nourished, but he had a heart attack that was hard to cure. He didn't know how sad he would be when Min Fanghua woke up.
King Yu nodded, "I heard that your guard was captured as well. I want to know what happened in the secret chamber." He had to investigate the truth in order to find out who had committed the crime and deserved to die a thousand deaths!
