"Jin'er, you stay here and are not allowed to go anywhere, understand?"
"Haoze, go and save Yan'er without worry! I will protect myself."
Hua Rujin smiled. Her cultivation had improved a lot, making it more than enough to protect herself. She also knew that Yan'er was like a younger sister to Haoze, and she understood his anxious thoughts.
Just as the group was about to head towards the Cliff of Heartbreak, they ran into Bei Ming Haotian and Baili Yuechan. Seeing the two walking side by side, the group felt a pang of sadness.
"Hey! Everyone's here so early in the morning!"
Tian Nanxing stretched lazily, her beady eyes scanning each of them.
When he saw Baili Yuechan and Beiming Haotian, a hint of unease flashed in his eyes.
"Godfather, Yan'er is in danger. We must rush over to save her immediately."
"Yes, there is danger. What kind of danger?"
Tian Nanxing, who hadn't been thinking about sleeping, was now completely awake. She jogged over to Tian Haoze and stared at him with wide eyes, asking him a question.
"Yan'er has gone to the Cliff of Heartbreak."
"Cliff of Heartbreak?" Tian Nanxing's eyes widened. "Oh dear! How could this girl be so foolish? If she wants to die, she should at least choose a good place! Cliff of Heartbreak is no good place at all!"
Tian Nanxing was getting a little anxious.
His first thought was that Nangong Ziyan wanted to commit suicide.
"Godfather, what are you thinking? Is Yan'er the kind of person who would take her own life because of love?"
When Bei Ming Haotian heard that Nangong Ziyan was in danger, he felt a strange pain in his heart, and the fear he felt last night intensified.
Baili Yuechan felt a surge of smugness. "Nangong Ziyan, today is your death day. Today, I, Baili Yuechan, will watch you die with my own eyes..."
"This is an extremely urgent matter, what are you all standing around for?"
Tian Nanxing flew straight towards the Cliff of Heartbreak, his heart filled with anxiety! His precious disciple and grand-disciple must not be harmed!
"Let's go."
Tian Haoze had no time to care about Baili Yuechan and Beiming Haotian at the moment and led the way.
"Haotian, why don't we go and take a look too? After all, Nangong Ziyan is your cousin."
At this point, Baili Yuechan clenched her fists. She was caught off guard by the fact that there was such a relationship between the Netherworld Palace and the South Sea Glazed Palace. However, she was certain that this time everything would be foolproof, and that Nangong Ziyan would not be able to return alive.
"Okay!" Bei Minghaotian agreed without thinking. He was very flustered and scared. The feeling of helplessness was driving him crazy.
The Cliff of Heartbreak is the most treacherous place on the Netherworld Continent. The peak of the cliff cannot be seen from the foot of the mountain, and the top of the cliff is basically barren.
Riding the Azure Phoenix, Nangong Ziyan felt the biting cold wind even before reaching the top of the cliff. She was alarmed. Her second brother had been captured and kept here for so long. How could he endure such a temperature? Nangong Ziyan kept urging the Azure Phoenix to speed up...
Upon reaching the top of the cliff, Nangong Ziyan looked down, her bright eyes searching for Nangong Jingqi's figure.
Upon suddenly seeing Nangong Jingqi tied to the rocks at the edge of the cliff, Nangong Ziyan's eyes instantly darkened to an extreme.
"Second brother, second brother...!"
Nangong Ziyan shouted loudly, but Nangong Jingqi hung her head and ignored her shouts. Nangong Ziyan was shocked and ordered Qingluan to fly over quickly. Just as they were about to approach Nangong Jingqi, a beam of green light blocked their path, almost blinding Nangong.
After regaining her senses, Nangong Ziyan suddenly looked up.
They saw Ximen Qingtian and Ximen Ruiyun leading several masked men in black, blocking their way. Xue Ji, the woman she had just met after returning, was also there.
However, the moment Xue Ji saw Nangong Ziyan, she took a few steps back in fear.
"Lord Ximen, what have you done to my second brother?"
Nangong Ziyan never imagined that it was Ximen Qingtian who had captured her second brother to threaten her.
"Miss Nangong, you're so slow! I've been waiting for you for quite some time."
Ximen Qingtian looked at Nangong Ziyan with a cold and arrogant smile. She really had the guts to come to the Cliff of Heartbreak alone.
Nangong Ziyan summoned Qingluan and walked alone to Ximen Qingtian and Ximen Ruiyun. Because the location was a slope, she was only a few steps away from the cliff.
Nangong Ziyan looked down. The bottom of the cliff was shrouded in mist, making it impossible to see the bottom at all. Moreover, there were only some rocks sticking out horizontally. Nangong Ziyan felt dizzy. She was afraid of heights, and she didn't dare to look again after just one glance.
“Miss Nangong, because of you, my daughter died a violent death. Although the Seven Eternal Jade is the most precious treasure in the world, it is not as valuable as my daughter’s life. Exchanging the Seven Eternal Jade for your brother’s life should not be a big deal!”
Ximen Qingtian grinned sinisterly, determined to obtain the Seven Jade Stones of Eternity.
Ximen Ruiyun glared hatefully at Nangong Ziyan. Xue'er was indeed killed by Beiming Haotian because of her, and Nangong Ziyan should repay this debt.
"Nangong Ziyan, if you don't hand over the Seven Eternal Jade, then you will pay for Xue'er's life with your brother's life."
Ximen Ruiyun finally hardened her heart and said, and a gleaming, sharp dagger was instantly pressed against Nangong Jingqi's neck.
"stop……."
Nangong Ziyan shouted urgently, "I need to make sure my second brother is alright, otherwise, no matter how you threaten me, it won't work."
Looking at her second brother, who kept his head down, Nangong Ziyan was filled with worry. Had her second brother been in this temperature for a long time?
"When did you bring my second brother here?" Nangong Ziyan asked resentfully.
