Marrying Wife and Concubine Together: After Rebirth, I Remarried the Scumbag's Father on the Sp

The group turned and fled, but broken beams and logs continued to fall heavily.

Lin Yiwan and Zhan Yan's path was blocked. She said urgently, "It's impossible to run out. Since Min De was able to escape from behind the chair, there must be a secret passage over there!"

Zhan Yan nodded hurriedly and immediately led his men inside.

At this moment, the tall pillars began to break, and a thunderous roar tore apart the roof of the palace.

The glazed tiles fell like a torrential rain, their sharp edges like knives, instantly shattering the stone steps in front of the hall.

Zhan Yan pulled Lin Yiwan back hastily, thus avoiding being smashed into mincemeat.

Min Ao and the Holy Maiden both stopped abruptly, their faces filled with shock and disbelief.

They truly didn't expect Min De to be so crazy; he was capable of collapsing the main hall of the palace.

The already shaky pillar finally gave way, and with a loud crash, it crashed into the corridor with half of its exquisitely carved dragon head attached to it.

Wooden beams and bricks, carrying dust, shot into the sky. In the hazy, sunless fog, the palace walls collapsed like paper. The ear-piercing creaking of twisted beams and pillars echoed from the ruins, mixed with desperate wails.

The broken eaves, trailing flames, tumbled down, igniting the hanging palace lanterns and brocade curtains. Sparks danced in the smoke and dust, licking and caressing the scattered gold and jade ornaments.

The once magnificent palace was reduced to ruins in an instant, with heavy stone bricks piled up layer upon layer, suddenly swallowing up the running figures.

Lin Yiwan and Zhan Yan were stunned; the scene before them was like hell on earth!

Min Ao was the first to react, and he immediately urged, "Hurry up and find the secret passage, otherwise, we'll either be crushed to death in this palace or burned to death in the fire!"

Lin Yiwan nodded hurriedly: "Yes, it's right behind the chair!"

The group ran behind the chair and, sure enough, found an open hole under a table.

Zhan Yan immediately went down to meet the rest of the group.

Lin Yiwan secretly rejoiced that she hadn't brought Zhan Miao and Qing Ning in, otherwise, the two children would have been scared to tears again.

As the group entered the secret passage, terrifying rumbling sounds echoed in their ears.

The saintess's face was pale and ashen. She gritted her teeth and said, "Min De is insane! He hollowed out the entire Li Kingdom palace just to kill us!"

Min Ao knew his younger brother well; he had been stubborn and eccentric since childhood.

He was exceptionally gifted, having mastered the art of divination and trickery.

But I don't know when it started, it suddenly became incredibly ambitious.

Since he wants to obtain the throne of Li Kingdom, he will definitely not give up until he achieves his goal!

Suddenly, he realized something.

He exclaimed in shock, "Could it be that what we think is the way out is actually another trap?"

Zhan Yan frowned and said, "Even if we know it's a trap, we have to jump in. Otherwise, if we stay up there, we'll be crushed to death!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than a sneer came from the darkness: "As expected of my elder brother, no one knows a brother better than his brother. If you don't want to be smashed into mincemeat, then you can be burned alive into charcoal!"

He emerged from the darkness, clad in a white brocade robe, which made him resemble the deadly White Impermanence.

Lin Yiwan hated him to the core, and without hesitation, she shot the silver needles hidden in her hand toward his face.

The sharp sound of the silver needle piercing the air was seen as Min De lightly twisted her wrist, her fingertips precisely catching the flying silver tip as if picking a flower. Her fingertips caressed the needle, and her smile grew colder: "The wife of the Marquis of Zhanyi of the dignified dynasty, you dare to show off your meager skills in front of me with such petty tricks?"

Lin Yiwan saw him caressing the silver needles and couldn't help but curl a cold smile at the corner of her lips.

She squinted and said, "You self-righteous Fate Master, what powerful methods do you have?"

As her words fell, Min De lightly touched the ground with his toes, his figure flashing like a ghost across the collapsed threshold, his white robe fluttering in the flying rubble.

A burning beam, sparks flying, crashed down where he had just stood. The flying pebbles grazed his clothes but did not harm him in the slightest.

Just then, a burst of light and shadow suddenly appeared before everyone's eyes.

Zhan Yan instinctively covered Lin Yiwan's eyes. When the light and shadow illuminated the entire secret passage, they realized that what they saw before them was a field of raging lava.

Min De, sitting opposite him, laughed smugly: "If I say I'm going to kill you, I will not give you any chance to escape!"

He casually flicked his wrist, and something exploded behind them.

Min Ao spoke urgently: "He has firearms!"

A chilling killing intent flashed across Lin Yiwan's face. Since Min De was so powerful, he couldn't be allowed to live.

She quickly said, "Everyone, stay calm. Min De has been poisoned and the effects will kick in soon!"

The surrounding stone walls continued to collapse, leaving them with less and less space.

Min De smiled with delight: "I'm really looking forward to seeing you all fall into the raging lava and be burned alive. I should be able to see that soon, right?"

Min Ao angrily rebuked, "Min De, how could you be so inhumane?"

Min De's smile vanished abruptly, his face contorted with rage as he spoke: "Isn't it all because of you?"

Min Ao frowned at him: "What does your own depravity have to do with me?"

Min De sneered: "After you became the current Prime Minister Min, you only focused on indulging in romantic love, but forgot the responsibilities your family had given you. Now that the royal line has dwindled, our Min family should become the true rulers of the Li Kingdom!"

Min Ao sternly rebuked, "What nonsense are you spouting? The King of Wu has his own considerations. How dare you covet the imperial power?"

Min De sneered, "It's precisely because you have such thoughts that you deserve to die! I, Min De, am now the most popular person in Li Kingdom, and I will become the new king!"

The cold wind blew against his white brocade robe, making him appear like a demon.

But the next second, his brows furrowed tightly.

He finally couldn't take it anymore and vomited a lot of blood.

He asked incredulously, "What happened?"

Lin Yiwan smiled, her eyes narrowing: "Master of Destiny, aren't you very skilled at fortune telling? Did you foresee that you would face a great calamity and bloodshed?"

Min De took a half step back in terror, his throat churning with more and more blood.

He coughed violently and collapsed to his knees in a disheveled state.

Seeing the crimson stains all over the ground, his face was filled with furious murderous intent.

He hissed and cursed, "You despicable scoundrel, how dare you secretly poison me? How did you manage that? None of your silver needles hit me!"

Lin Yiwan slowly said, "Just because the silver needle didn't pierce you doesn't mean it wasn't poisonous. As long as you touch it, the poison powder will travel down your nose and into your throat, killing you!"

Min De was in unbearable abdominal pain, and he rolled around on the ground like a trapped beast.

Lin Yiwan warned in a deep voice, "You don't have much time left. If you don't get the antidote within the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, you will die in excruciating pain!"
