In the hall, the firelight reflected the flashes of swords and the sound of metal colliding was endless. Yinzhen was trapped in the siege of the White Cult. His swordsmanship was sharp and he was cautious in every step. However, in the fierce battle, Yinzhen's eyes suddenly caught a subtle change - the leader of the White Cult disappeared.

Yinzhen's heart moved, he knew that the leader's disappearance was not simple. He quickly exchanged a few moves with the White-robed Cultist beside him, forced the other party to retreat, and then turned to the Fifth Prince who was not far away and shouted: "Yinqi, the leader of the White-robed Cult is missing, I'm afraid something has happened. You stay here to command, I'll go track him down!"

Upon hearing this, the Fifth Prince glanced at the battle situation with a serious look. Seeing Yinzhen's determined expression, he nodded and said, "Fourth Brother, be careful. I will take good care of this place."

Yinzhen nodded, and with a move of his body, he rushed out of the crowd like a cheetah and rushed towards the backyard. He knew that the disappearance of the leader was probably related to their plan, and he had to find him as soon as possible to prevent any accidents.

As the night deepened, they finally discovered a dark and long secret passage hidden deep in the manor. Yinzhen led his men into this secret passage full of unknowns without hesitation.

The light in the dark passage was dim, with only a weak torch lighting the way ahead. Yinzhen held his sword tightly and looked around vigilantly.

Suddenly, there was a sound of hurried footsteps in front of them. Yinzhen was moved and signaled the guards to be quiet. They approached quietly and saw a vague figure in front of them. It was the leader of the White Clothes Cult.

The leader obviously did not expect that someone would follow him here, and his steps were obviously a little flustered.

Seeing this, Yinzhen immediately took the bow and arrow from the guard beside him and aimed at the leader's shoulder. As soon as the bowstring was loosened, the arrow shot out like lightning and accurately hit the leader's shoulder.

"Ah!" The leader screamed and fell to the ground.

The guards quickly stepped forward and subdued the leader. Yinzhen walked up to the leader and said with a sharp gaze: "Tell me, where is my son Honghui?"

The leader looked up and saw Yinzhen's angry and anxious eyes, and couldn't help but sneer in his heart. He pretended to know nothing: "I don't know what you are talking about. I have never seen your son."

A trace of anger flashed in Yinzhen's eyes. He stared at the leader closely: "You really don't know? Then why are you here? Why did you run away?"

The leader was stunned for a moment, then laughed: "I am the leader of the White Clothes Cult. Isn't it normal for me to be here? As for running away, I just think you are too annoying."

Yinzhen knew the leader was lying, but he didn't get angry immediately. He took a deep breath and tried to keep himself calm: "Tell me where Honghui is, or you will regret it."

The leader looked at Yinzhen's angry and determined eyes, and felt a little flustered. But he still said stubbornly: "Honghui? I really haven't seen him. Even if you kill me, I can't give you an answer."

The guards nearby were furious when they heard this. They drew their swords and prepared to execute the leader on the spot. However, Yinzhen waved his hand to stop them: "Wait!"

The guards looked at Yinzhen in confusion, not understanding why he wanted to stop them. Yinzhen explained, "If Honghui had really been killed by them, they wouldn't have resisted so fiercely just now, and they would have desperately fled to the backyard. This means that Honghui may still be in their hands, or they know Honghui's whereabouts."

After hearing this, the guards suddenly understood and nodded in agreement. Yinzhen turned to the leader and said, "I warn you, if you don't hand over Honghui, I will make you live a life worse than death!"

Seeing Yinzhen's determination, the leader was a little afraid. He knew Yinzhen's methods were cruel, and if he didn't hand over Honghui, his fate would definitely not be good. But he still had a fluke and wanted to delay time.

The lights in the dark passage were dim and flickering. Yinzhen looked at the leader's sinister eyes and was furious. He knew that it was impossible to learn Honghui's whereabouts from this leader, but he couldn't just let him go.

"Take him out and hand him over to the Fifth Prince for custody." Yinzhen ordered coldly. His voice echoed in the secret passage with unquestionable majesty.

The guards acted quickly after receiving the order, and dragged the leader out with his hands tied. Yinzhen took a deep breath, his eyes determined, he must find Honghui as soon as possible.

He went deep into the secret passage alone, looking for Honghui's trace all the way. The secret passage was winding, sometimes narrow and cramped, sometimes spacious and empty, but no matter where he was, there was no trace of Honghui.

Yinzhen's heart sank gradually, but he did not give up. He knew that Honghui was his son and his hope, and he could not lose him just like that.

There was no other way, so Yinzhen had to go to the front yard to meet Yinqi.
