Although she missed her only chance to save Yang Boqiao, she did not regret it. In fact, if Yang Boqiao had not risked his life to entangle Qu Fengting, there would have been no such opportunity. She did this with no regrets and a clear conscience.
However, even if she missed that opportunity, she would not let Qu Fengting get what he wanted.
He couldn't hide in the palace forever; he had to come out one day. Although he didn't know what the ancient treasure was, the more precious the treasure, the more difficult it was to refine. Some people even spent decades in seclusion to refine a rare treasure, and then made a big splash.
Mu Hanyan believed that after Qu Fengting succeeded, he would not spend too much time in there, so when he came out, it would be time for her to take action.
After what happened today, all the children of the aristocratic families present have become enemies with Qu Fengting. Even if they don't seek revenge, Qu Fengting will not let them go, so Mu Hanyan will never be merciful.
Below the stairs, strange beasts continued to surge in like a tide. However, relying on the strength of the great swordsman Yan Yuchu, they managed to hold the entrance to the stairs.
It was not until then that the others realized that in addition to Qu Fengting, there was actually another great swordsman-level master. Their spirits were lifted again. Even when they saw Qu Fengting closing the palace and cutting off their retreat, they no longer felt the despair they had before, but gritted their teeth and held on.
Seeing that they could still handle it for the time being, Mu Hanyan did not go up to help. She adjusted her breathing and gathered her energy, waiting for Qu Fengting to appear again so that she could give him a fatal blow.
In fact, Yan Yuchu initially only promised to help Mu Hanyan take care of Mu Cheng and others, but he didn't expect to be accidentally involved in this mess. Although he is strong, if he is trapped in the beast group, he will not be able to protect himself, so he can only hold on and fight alongside everyone.
However, although Yan Yuchu seemed to be at the level of a great swordsman, he relied on the shortcut of Tianxing Kung Fu, and his foundation was far less solid than that of other masters of the same level. He soon felt that he was running out of energy.
Mu Hanyan frowned. If this continued, Yan Yuchu might not be able to hold on any longer, so she had no choice but to go up and help.
"Hahahaha, I finally succeeded, succeeded." Suddenly, Qu Fengting's wild laughter rang out.
The stone door suddenly opened and Qu Fengting flew out like an arrow.
"Alchemical tools, why didn't I think of it!" Mu Hanyan slapped his forehead and thought in annoyance.
A faint silver light appeared on Qu Fengting's body. It was obvious that he was carrying some alchemical artifact that could fly with the wind. He was moving so fast that even if Mu Hanyan was promoted to the level of a swordsman, she might not be able to catch up with him if she was caught off guard, not to mention that she was only a tenth-level swordsman now.
No wonder this guy dared to kill even his loyal confidants and left no way out. It turned out that he had a foolproof plan in place.
Looking at Qu Fengting's figure flying straight into the sky, Mu Hanyan could only sigh.
This wasn't the worst. The worst thing was that just as Qu Fengting flew up, several loud noises were heard, and the ancient palace collapsed. The palace had stood for thousands of years thanks to the seal. When Qu Fengting broke the seal, it naturally collapsed.
Thick dust rose up, and everyone's heart fell into an icy valley at this moment.
Originally, with the palace behind them, they could still hold on to the stairs and delay the attack. But now, with the palace collapsed and the gates wide open, they would be trapped in a desperate situation with attacks from both sides, and there would be no possibility of escaping the disaster.
