While she was hesitating, Wen Shu came out with an angry face. The scene before her was just as Tao Xiran had said, she would return in anger every time she left the palace!

Although she was furious, Wen Shu still ordered: "You must protect him for me no matter what!"

"Madam, this..." Ning Chuan hesitated.

"Master Ning, can't you hear what I said?"

"Yes, I understand. I will do it right away."

"Humph!"

Wen Shu snorted coldly, waved her sleeves and left.

Ning Chuan looked back at the cave, then strode away with his men to do something.

After they left, Jiang Wan took the opportunity to quickly find the switch in the gap of the rockery and rushed into the passage.

When she stepped into the passage, it was not pitch black as she had imagined. Instead, there was a candle burning every few meters, which showed that the people here were very important to Wen Shu.

Fortunately, there is no one else guarding here. Maybe this place is too secretive and cannot be known by too many people.

Jiang Wan ran along the passage cautiously.

The passage was not deep, and after just a moment, the view in front of me became empty.

When Jiang Wan saw it, his pupils trembled violently, his heart skipped a beat, and he became extremely panicked.

She remembered the person in front of her, whose flesh and blood were blurred and whose life was gradually disappearing.

"Uncle Zhou, Uncle Zhou..." Jiang Wan rushed forward and called out.

This person was exactly Jiang Minghe's right-hand man in her memory, and also his most valued deputy general Zhou Rang.

Although he hadn't seen her for many years, Jiang Wan could recognize the bloody man at a glance.

It was because Zhou Rang had a scar on his forehead, which was left when he risked his life to protect Jiang Minghe during the battle at the border that year.

The enemy deployed their troops and slashed at Jiang Minghe with fierce swords. If Zhou Rang had not pounced on him, Jiang Minghe would have been dead long ago.

Therefore, although Zhou Rang survived, his forehead was injured by the residual sword energy and he almost died.

When Zhou Rang heard the calling voice, he subconsciously thought it was Wen Shu's. But when he listened carefully to the word "uncle", he couldn't help but struggle with his tired brain and opened his eyes.

What he saw was a woman he had never met, looking at him with tears in her eyes and a worried look on her face.

She looked at him closely, still calling "Uncle Zhou".

Zhou Rang instantly became alert and asked coldly: "Who are you?"

Jiang Wan wiped away the tears covering her eyes, tore off the carefully concealed human skin mask, and stared at him closely, "Uncle Zhou, who do you think I am? I am Wanwan, your niece."

"What? Wanwan?" Zhou Rang was suddenly startled and said in disbelief.

Jiang Wan nodded vigorously, "Yes, I am Wan Wan, Jiang Wan, I am here to save you."

Zhou Rang reacted in a panic instead of surprise. "Go! Go! Leave here! It's too dangerous here! Go! Go find your father..."

Before Zhou Rang could finish his words, he heard footsteps in the distance, which instantly made him panic.

He had never been afraid in all the time he had been here, but at this moment, he was afraid.

He was so scared that he quickly said to Jiang Wan: "Hide quickly, quickly!"

Jiang Wan gritted his teeth and nodded, "Uncle, I understand."

Looking around, Jiang Wan ran to the corner.

Just when Jiang Wan had hidden himself, Ning Chuan showed up with a doctor.

Ning Chuan saw Zhou Rang regain consciousness and laughed mockingly: "What? Didn't you want to die? Why are you alive again?"

Zhou Rang glanced at him, then closed his eyes and ignored him.

His disapproving look instantly made Ning Chuan angry.

What qualifications does he have to ignore him like this!

He's just a prisoner, and you dare to turn your back on him?!

At this moment, Ning Chuan's arrogance was not like the lapdog look he showed in front of Wen Shu.

He was so angry that he picked up the whip beside him and hit Zhou Rang hard.

In an instant, with new injuries added to old ones, Zhou Rang couldn't help but groan.

The coagulated blood from the wound flowed out again, making Ning Chuan laugh wildly.

The feeling of stepping on someone under his feet made Ning Chuan feel infinitely happy.

How could he be willing to be inferior to a woman?

But he didn't have the ability to resist or pull down the woman who was stepping on him.

The woman cares about the person in front of her, or in other words, Wen Shu wants Zhou Rang to be a bargaining chip to capture Jiang Minghe, so Wen Shu cares about the person in front of her and is reluctant to let him die.

Then he...

"Pah, pah..."

With every whip, Ning Chuan's eyes became more excited.

Zhou Rang clenched his fists until they bled, but he only made the initial sound.

He suddenly opened his eyes and looked casually in the direction of Jiang Wan, trying hard not to make any sound, but there was a meaning in his eyes that Jiang Wan could understand.

That is - he is fine.

Jiang Wan bit his hand tightly, his teeth piercing through his skin as he endured it again and again.

At this moment, she finally understood where the bloody wounds on Zhou Rang's body came from.

Suddenly, a loud laugh broke out, this time it was not from Ning Chuan, but from Zhou Rang.

He endured the severe pain and sneered: "You are nothing but this. How does it feel to be inferior to the woman we Ling Yue despise?! Haha!"
