Why did you provoke her? Even Heaven itself is afraid of her.

This can save a lot of time.

Well, Mo Yu had nothing more to say.

----------

As night fell, Ling Yun and his group headed straight for the Xuanwu Kingdom's imperial palace.

Long Xiu and Long Xiaoxiao were filled with anxiety, constantly praying that their mother was safe.

The Xuanwu Kingdom's palace was heavily guarded, but compared to the Qinglong Kingdom, it was still somewhat lacking.

Something's not right here.

As the group arrived at Consort Shu's palace, Mo Yu spoke cautiously.

Upon hearing this, Ling Yun looked around, his expression solemn, and nodded slightly.

The area around the palace was deathly silent, with not a single light shining through; the silence was eerie.

Long Xiu and Long Xiaoxiao's hearts jumped into their throats instantly.

They anxiously looked at the tightly closed palace gate, fearing that they would see something they didn't want to see at any moment.

"Master?"

Long Xiu looked at Ling Yun with concern.

"A formation has been set up here."

"Array?"

He didn't understand formations, but judging from his master's expression, the formations here were clearly unusual.

In other words, this formation shouldn't be here.

Long Xiu's heart sank.

"This formation is exquisite and complex, and contains powerful restrictive force. If someone enters, they will trigger the formation. The intruder will be unharmed, but those who were originally in the formation will die tragically overnight."

Mo Yu glanced at Long Xiu and Long Xiaoxiao, and, perhaps to provoke them, deliberately explained the function of the formation.

As expected, both Long Xiu and Long Xiaoxiao were taken aback upon hearing Mo Yu's words.

They knew that the man wouldn't easily let their mother off once he learned the truth.

But I never expected him to be so ruthless.

If it weren't for his master, and they had rashly entered, they would have discovered that they had personally killed their own mother.

They couldn't imagine such a scene.

Long Xiu's hands unconsciously clenched into fists, his knuckles turning white.

Long Xiaoxiao turned pale, feeling a wave of fear wash over her.

His body trembled uncontrollably.

"So close, so close we..."

Long Xiaoxiao said in a trembling voice, covering her mouth.

"Master, can you break this formation?"

Long Xiu's face was serious, and his voice trembled with anger.

Ling Yun did not answer him immediately, but looked around.

Mo Yu remained indifferent.

"The person who can set up this formation is indeed extraordinary."

Upon hearing his master's words, Long Xiu felt a pang of disappointment.

He subconsciously believed that even his master could not break this formation.

The next second, Ling Yun raised his hand and sent a burst of spiritual energy directly into the formation.

"Alright, the formation has been broken."

Long Xiu was momentarily stunned and stared blankly at his master.

He paused for a second, then mechanically looked at the palace where his mother lived, and immediately understood.

Like Long Xiaoxiao, he stared wide-eyed, his face filled with disbelief.

This! It's broken already?

So the person who set up this formation was no ordinary person?

They cracked it so easily?

And for a moment I stood there, stunned, not knowing how to describe my feelings.

"What are you two standing there for? The formation has been broken for you, why don't you go in and save your mother?"

Seeing that the two were still in a daze, Mo Yu interrupted them and kindly reminded them.

Upon hearing this, Long Xiu was the first to react, his eyes flashing with excitement and anticipation, and he quickly rushed towards his mother's palace.

Seeing this, Long Xiaoxiao also came to her senses and immediately followed closely behind.

Ling Yun and Mo Yu glanced around, casually set up an illusion, and then followed.

Long Xiu pushed open the palace door and looked around. The palace was extremely quiet. They hadn't seen a single servant or maid along the way.

Long Xiu, his face grim, rushed towards his mother's room.

As soon as I stepped into the courtyard, a pungent smell of blood filled the air.

Instantly, Long Xiu was shocked and anxiously pushed open the door, shouting:

"Mother! Where are you, Mother?"

Long Xiaoxiao, who was behind her, also ran into the room with unease.

When the two men broke into the room, the scene inside was horrifying.

The surroundings were in complete disarray, with clothes torn and bloodstains everywhere.

When they saw their mother, their eyes widened instantly, as if they had seen the most terrifying sight in the world.

"Mother concubine!"

Their mother was found suspended in mid-air, bound to a roof beam.

Her body had clearly been tortured, and her clothes were stained with blood.

Bloodstains remained on the ground from her body.

At this moment, her eyes were tightly closed, her face was as pale as paper, and her breath was extremely weak, as if she might perish at any moment.

Long Xiu quickly lowered his mother from the roof beam.

Looking at her mother's appearance, Long Xiaoxiao's eyes instantly reddened, and she could no longer hold back her tears.

Long Xiu's eyes were filled with panic and rage, and blood vessels quickly spread across his entire eyeballs, as if he were about to unleash his endless hatred.

Veins bulged on his forehead, and his temples throbbed.

His hands were clenched into fists, his knuckles turned white, and a cracking sound came from his joints.

My body trembled slightly involuntarily.

Long Xiu's chest heaved violently, each breath filled with intense anger and heartache.

Long Xiaoxiao knelt beside her mother and carefully reached out to hold her mother's hand.

Seeing that her mother's hands were covered in wounds, with not a single patch of undamaged skin, she immediately stopped, not daring to touch them.

Tears streamed down her face like a burst dam, and she sobbed uncontrollably.

"Mother... Mother, she..."

"Well……"

As if sensing something, Consort Shu let out a faint sound.

"Mother concubine!"

Long Xiu and Long Xiaoxiao exclaimed in surprise at the same time, a hint of anticipation and anxiety flashing in their eyes.

Long Xiaoxiao hurriedly approached Consort Shu and whispered:

"Mother, wake up! I've brought my brother to save you!"

Long Xiaoxiao's voice was trembling with tears.

Consort Shu's eyelids trembled slightly, as if she was trying to open her eyes.

Seeing this, Long Xiu felt heartbroken, his eyes reddened, and he turned to look at Ling Yun.

"Her injuries are too severe, give her this to take."

Ling Yun understood what Dong Longxiu meant and simply threw the pill to him.

Long Xiu hurriedly took the pill and carefully fed it into Consort Shu's mouth.

Long Xiaoxiao watched as Long Xiu gave the pill to her mother, her eyes filled with worry and tension.

The elixir melts in your mouth.

Shortly after taking the pill, Consort Shu's complexion seemed to regain a slight rosy hue. Her breathing was still weak, but she was noticeably better than before.

Then, Ling Yun stepped forward and channeled a stream of spiritual energy into Consort Shu's body to help her digest the medicinal properties of the pill.

As Lingyun's spiritual energy was slowly injected, Consort Shu's breathing gradually became more stable.

The visible injuries on her body are healing at a speed that is visibly apparent.

Upon seeing this, Long Xiu and Long Xiaoxiao couldn't help but feel a hint of surprise and hope in their eyes.

"Xiu'er! Is that you?!"
