Demoted from wife to concubine? Reborn, the mistress of a noble family plots another high-status mar

Chapter 896

Yun Xiyue quickly stepped forward, took out a pill, and fed it to him.

"I'm fine, Yue'er, don't worry." Yunnan Sheng felt better after taking the pill, drinking water, and eating some other things.

I plan to rest for a bit and then replace Murong Yu.

He can't stay here.

Yun Xiyue turned to look at Murong Yu, her heart filled with anxiety, "Your Majesty..."

"fine."

After experiencing it, Murong Yu realized the ingenuity of the Thousand Machine Lock. It was indeed impossible to break free. If one were to forcibly break free, it would cause the snow mountain to collapse and the volcano to erupt.

Cleverly enough, behind the pillar is a volcano, which makes the iron pillar very hot.

Deep within the dark and damp stone prison, a thick iron pillar stands out abruptly, as if it had grown wildly from the darkness beneath the earth.

However, the iron pillar is located on the snow-capped mountain side, and the Thousand Machine Lock also emits a cold aura.

So they won't get burnt and can withstand the heat.

However, one needs to channel internal energy to maintain body temperature, otherwise one will freeze to death.

That requires someone with profound internal strength, a strong physique, youth, and perseverance to become this pillar of strength.

The Thousand Machine Lock will automatically select people; it will only accept those who are suitable.

Murong Yu was tightly bound to the iron pillar by the Thousand Machine Lock. The Thousand Machine Lock was like a cold and cunning iron snake. The dark chain gleamed with a cold and hard light. Each section was intricately engraved with complex and delicate patterns, as if it contained a thousand tricks and ten thousand spells. The lock was deeply embedded in his clothes and cut into his skin, with faint traces of blood seeping out.

Ghost Hand was dressed in black, which was not obvious at first, but bloodstains could still be seen.

Yunnan Sheng also has it.

His hair was disheveled and fell across his forehead, with a few strands of hair soaked with sweat clinging to his cheeks, revealing a disheveled and haggard appearance.

Murong Yu's eyes were tightly closed, his long eyelashes trembled incessantly, and his brows were furrowed into a deep ravine, as if he were struggling in a nightmare, or as if he was enduring the pain all over his body.

Soon, his lips cracked and peeled, devoid of color, and occasionally a barely audible groan escaped, echoing in the deathly silent stone cell, adding to his desolation.

His hands were hoisted high, his wrists were bleeding from the struggle, and the dark red blood meandered down his arms. His body could only lean against the iron pillar.

Her feet were dangling precariously, her ankles tightly bound by the Thousand Machine Lock. The lock seemed to be alive; the more she struggled, the tighter it tightened, the icy touch feeling as if it would freeze her to the bone marrow.

A few drops of water occasionally seeped from the top of the stone cell, hitting his shoulder. They were icy cold, but they could replenish their fluids; it was water from dissolved blood.

Seeing that both Murong Yu and Ghost Hand were suffering.

His father's injuries also prevented him from continuing to act as a Jinchūriki!

"Isn't there any other way?" Yun Xiyue looked at Bai Daozi. "If you don't find a way to save them, I won't give you the medicine manual."

"You ungrateful woman!" Mingdao scolded angrily. Now that Murong Yu was on the Thousand Machine Lock, he could kill her at any time.

"The best way is for you to die. Jump down and appease the mountain god's wrath."

Seeing that he had murderous intent.

Yun Xiyue took a few steps back.

"Ayue!"

"If anything happens to A-Yue, I will break free of the Thousand Machine Lock and detonate the snow mountain. Then no one will survive."

Upon hearing this, Bai Daozi's face darkened, and he reprimanded sharply, "Is this your attitude as an emperor? You disregard the lives of millions of ordinary people."

"If you do this, I have truly misjudged you!"

He originally thought that Murong Yu was a wise and virtuous ruler.

He couldn't bear to hurt him, so he went to find him in person and persuaded him to go back.

"Your Excellency need not tell me these things. The life and death of the common people of the world do not depend on my will, but on you."

Bai Daozi's expression changed slightly. "I am not the one who caused this situation."

"Shut up! Master is already doing his best to save it. If it weren't for Ghost Hand's actions for this woman, the snow mountain wouldn't have collapsed."

"To keep him here, Master created the Thousand Machine Lock and became a human pillar himself for several years. Master is getting old and can't guard the snow mountain forever." Mingdao became angry, feeling that it was all their fault.

I wish I could kill them all.

Murong Yu's expression was cold, with an air of looking down on the world. "Hmph, this is just your side of the story. Only Bai Daozi knows the secret here."

He said it was because a ghostly hand broke the pillar, but who knows the truth?
