After her mind was read, the spoiled brat became the darling of the whole group.

The system's voice caused a slight change in the expressions of the two people who could hear each other's thoughts.

Jun Lanjin turned his gaze to Ye Tai.

Is this the Holy Son of Miao Jiang?

Luo Hanfeng was surprised that the Holy Son of Miao Jiang was actually a pair of Holy Sons.

As for the so-called romance between the male and female protagonists mentioned by the system, Luo Hanfeng didn't care at all.

Why bother with this? Xie Mingzhu will not be his empress; only Xie Xing is fit to be his empress.

"Palace Master?"

Seeing that Luo Hanfeng ignored him, Xie Mingzhu patiently called out again.

Luo Hanfeng smiled, and Jun Lanjin could hear his thoughts, which meant that Xie Mingzhu's true identity had already been exposed.

A hint of annoyance flashed in his eyes as he turned to look at Xie Mingzhu, his voice also carrying a trace of coldness: "What are you doing here?"

Xie Mingzhu was stunned for a moment.

She was in disbelief.

Yesterday, Luo Hanfeng begged her to ask Ye Tai for help, but today he spoke to her in such a cold tone.

Why is that?

Xie Mingzhu glanced at Xie Xing, then at Luo Hanfeng.

Is she trying to distance herself from Xie Xing?

Xie Mingzhu bit her lip tightly, her voice filled with grievance, and said, "I... I came to check because it seemed like something had happened."

Xie Mingzhu was unaware that the person in front of her was not only the Ghost King of the martial arts world, but also Prince Jin of the imperial court.

She was unaware that Xie Xing possessed a system, and that both Luo Hanfeng and Jun Lanjin could hear her thoughts.

Therefore, her identity had long been exposed.

She felt an unbearable heartache, as if she had been betrayed by her lover.

Ye Tai couldn't bear to see Xie Mingzhu suffer such injustice, and immediately stood up for her: "Hey! How dare you talk to your sister like that!?"

Seeing that the two were about to start a fight, Luo Hanfeng couldn't say anything in front of Jun Lanjin, so he just ordered his subordinates to take Xie Mingzhu away.

Jun Lanjin said with a half-smile, "It seems the Palace Master can't control the people around him."

Luo Hanfeng glanced coldly at Jun Lanjin, sneered, and said, "Instead of making sarcastic remarks here, Your Highness should worry about your mother."

"Having been inside the killing formation for so long, is it possible for them to survive?"

what? !

Xie Xing was extremely surprised.

She suddenly grabbed Jun Lanjin's sleeve and whispered, "Your Highness! Quick! Hua An tied up the old princess who was hiding in the Yama Palace to attract their attention in order to save me."

"But I never expected that he would bring the old princess into the killing formation!"

Jun Lanjin tightened his grip.

Luo Hanfeng wasn't lying just now.

His mother was actually in that killing formation.

Without any hesitation, Jun Lanjin immediately raised his hand and said coldly, "Break the formation!"

As he spoke, the people behind him began to stir.

Luo Hanfeng, on the contrary, was no longer in a hurry. He had someone bring over a chaise lounge, sat down leisurely, and looked at Jun Lanjin with a relaxed expression: "It is said in the martial arts world that the Ghost King is highly skilled and extremely powerful. I just don't know if he can come out alive after entering this killing formation."

"Waiting patiently for the good news from the Ghost King."

Luo Hanfeng originally wanted to enter this killing formation, and now that someone has taken his place, that's perfect.

If the formation is broken and the old princess is rescued from the killing formation, they will be on his territory. He can guarantee that neither of them, Jun Lanjin, will be able to take away.

certainly--

If Jun Lanjin and the old princess die together in the killing formation.

That would be an even bigger surprise.

As long as Jun Lanjin dies, it doesn't matter whether the old princess lives or dies.

A killing formation is a killing formation; countless people have died within it.

Jun Lanjin was not in a hurry at all. He calmly dismounted from his horse and was about to walk into the killing formation.

Halfway there, he paused slightly, then turned back to look at Xie Xing: "Would you be willing to enter the formation with me?"

"willing."

Xie Xing agreed without the slightest hesitation.

She jumped off her horse and went to Jun Lanjin's side.

This killing formation not only contains the old princess but also Hua An and Qi Yu; she cannot simply sit here and wait to be deployed.

Xie Xingyi agreed, but Jun Lanjin, who had been sitting there leisurely, suddenly stood up.

He looked at Xie Xing with an extremely ugly expression: "You want to go in and die with him?"

Xie Xing said, "How is it considered suicide?"

"Your Highness is a genius; it's just a small formation, of course it can't stop him."

"The prince will protect me!"

Xie Xing seemed to be doing it on purpose, knowing full well what Luo Hanfeng didn't want to hear, yet he insisted on saying it anyway.

Luo Hanfeng was so angry that his face almost twisted into a grotesque expression.

He pointed at Xie Xing, jumping up and down in anger: "You really trust him that much?"

"If he dies, you want to die with him?"

Jun Lanjin didn't like hearing these words. He gently pulled Xie Xing into his arms, rested his chin on Xie Xing's head, and said softly, "Seventh Prince, what you said is so awful. How could you believe that I would die in this killing formation?"

As he spoke, he sighed slowly, "Even if I die, with Xing'er by my side, I will have no regrets."

Luo Hanfeng: "..."

Xie Xing: "..."

She shivered.

She looked at Jun Lanjin with disbelief, her eyes seeming as if she couldn't believe those words had actually come from Jun Lanjin's mouth.

She looked Jun Lanjin up and down, then reached out and lifted a corner of Jun Lanjin's mask to see his face underneath.

After confirming that it was indeed Jun Lanjin, Xie Xing whispered, "Your Highness, isn't this a bit too much?"

[How cheesy! Did he really say that?]

Jun Lanjin: "..."

He smacked Xie Xing on the head with a blank expression.

This clueless fool, doesn't he realize he's helping her gain hatred points?

Upon hearing this thought, Luo Hanfeng immediately laughed: "So the Ghost King is nothing special after all?"

He thought for a moment and said, "Since the Ghost King wants to break through the formation, I will accompany him."

"I'd like to see how the Ghost King plans to break this formation."

Luo Hanfeng's words meant that he wanted to follow suit.

Jun Lanjin glanced at him.

Let him do whatever he wants.

He stepped into the formation.

Seeing this, Xie Xing quickly grabbed Jun Lanjin's sleeve and followed.

To enter the Yama's Palace, one must pass through a bamboo forest. This bamboo forest is unpredictable, and the figures of the group disappeared from everyone's sight as soon as they entered.

The leaders had all left, leaving only two groups of people staring at each other in bewilderment.

They could only wait outside the formation for Jun Lanjin to come out.

The people of the Yama Palace sneered inwardly. This killing formation was set up by the most powerful formation master in the martial arts world, invited by the old palace master. No matter how high one's martial arts skills were, entering the formation meant certain death.

In the formation.

Xie Xing grabbed Jun Lanjin's sleeve, and as the two stepped into the formation, their escape route was instantly blocked.

Xie Xing turned his head, his eyes wide with shock: "There's no way out!?"

What kind of formation is this? It's amazing!

If you didn't know better, you'd think you'd stumbled into a fantasy cultivation story!

"It's just a smokescreen, don't worry about it."
