Chapter 159 That person won’t let us go either!
"I didn't expect there was such a palace hidden under the cliff," Lan Xiyue said with amazement. "Look at the direction those bandits fled. That must be their hiding place. It's really bizarre. These bandits are really capable. They built a palace under this cliff!"
As soon as she finished speaking, a clear shout came from above the cliff, breaking the silence.
Tian Yi was moving cautiously downwards step by step, his eyes fixed on Lan Xiyue and the princess beside him.
"Master, Princess!"
Tianyi's voice was filled with a hint of anxiety. Seeing that the two were safe and sound, he felt relieved.
Lan Xiyue looked up when she heard the voice, and saw Tianyi and a group of secret guards climbing down the cliff along the protrusions and vines, struggling but determined.
Lan Xiyue waved her hand and said, "Be careful!"
Mo Liyuan said coldly: "Do you care about him?" There was an imperceptible chill in his eyes, and he glanced coldly at Tianyi on the cliff.
Tianyi felt a chill, his body trembled, his feet slipped, he lost his balance and almost fell off the cliff.
At this critical moment, he quickly grabbed a vine on the cliff and stabilized his body.
Tianyi's palms were sweating, and he patted his chest with one hand, muttering, "That was a close call."
Seeing this, Lan Xiyue looked at Mo Liyuan helplessly, "My Lord, you scared your guards."
Mo Liyuan's expression grew increasingly gloomy, and he said in a deep voice, "I'm asking you, were you concerned about him just now?"
Lan Xiyue frowned, feeling a surge of displeasure. This Mo Liyuan was truly insane. She'd just casually said "be careful," but was he so sensitive? Besides, Tianyi was his subordinate.
The strange old man's voice rang out in Lan Xiyue's mind, "Girl, the old man said it before, it's still my grandson who is more suitable for you. This guy has too strong a desire for control and is not suitable for you, girl."
The voice was full of teasing and concern, which made Lan Xiyue purse her lips slightly.
Mo Liyuan became even more angry when he saw Lan Xiyue was distracted.
He suddenly pulled Lan Xiyue over, his eyes firm and domineering, "Yuer, you can only have eyes for me, and you can't look at other men. Understand?"
Lan Xiyue looked at Mo Liyuan, a nameless anger welling up in her heart. This guy was so overbearing! She wanted to slap him, but for the sake of points, she could only suppress her anger.
Lan Xiyue pulled her hand back forcefully, with a look of displeasure and stubbornness on her face. She turned her head away, unwilling to look at Mo Liyuan again.
Mo Liyuan frowned slightly. Tian Yi and other secret guards had already climbed down the steep cliff one after another.
"Master...!" Tianyi called cautiously.
Mo Liyuan ignored Tianyi's call, but walked straight to Lan Xiyue and took her hand again.
Lan Xiyue wanted to struggle, but she heard Mo Liyuan whisper, "Yue'er, aren't you curious about why there's a palace under the cliff? Let's go take a look."
After he finished speaking, Mo Liyuan pulled Lan Xiyue forward without any explanation.
Lan Xiyue looked down at her tightly clasped hands, curled her lips slightly, and ultimately said nothing more.
At this moment, inside the mysterious palace, the atmosphere was in chaos.
In the hall, a small minion said, "Second boss, third boss, it's bad, the boss is dead, the regent is here."
Tan Zhu was horrified when he heard this. He looked at Fei Cheng beside him, his eyes filled with anxiety: "Second brother, what should we do? We are all hiding here, and Mo Liyuan may still come to our door."
Fei Cheng glanced at Tan Zhu calmly and said, "Why are you panicking? Da Wan, you and the brothers will stay here. If they break in, activate the mechanism immediately. Third brother, come with me."
As he spoke, Fei Cheng gently twisted his hand under the stone table, and a stone door behind him slowly opened. Tan Zhu and Fei Cheng quickly walked in, and the stone door slammed shut behind them.
The two walked into the secret passage and entered a stone chamber. "Second brother?" There was a hint of doubt and uneasiness in Tan Zhu's voice.
Fei Cheng didn't turn around, but said in a deep voice: "Third brother, let's pack up quickly and leave here."
Tan Zhu followed closely behind Fei Cheng, his heart still trembling with panic. "Second brother, where are the brothers outside?"
Fei Cheng paused for a moment, then continued packing his bags. "I can't worry about that anymore. The Regent has found his way here. My eldest brother died at his hands. How can we possibly be his opponent? Let's pack up and leave."
Hearing this, Tan Zhu's face turned even paler. "Second brother, aren't we going to avenge our eldest brother? Don't you care about these brothers outside? And if the secrets here are known by the Regent, he won't let us go either."
Fei Cheng was busy as he said, "Third brother, we were originally bandits, but we were coerced by that man to do things. We used all the gold, silver and jewelry we robbed to make weapons here. Now even our eldest brother is gone. Staying here will only lead to death. This money is enough for us brothers to spend for a lifetime. Let's go out, find a place, buy a house, and live a normal life. We don't have to stay here anymore."
