This answer, Xiao Man had already told Ye Fei from the beginning, Feng Mo Ran was cold-blooded and ruthless, he loved no one, he had no feelings for Lan Ruo Yu, from beginning to end, whether it was Lan Ruo Yu or her, they were all chess pieces that Feng Mo Ran could use. Once a chess piece had its own consciousness, Feng Mo Ran would not hesitate to eliminate them.
"You deserve to die," Ye Fei said softly, "The Empress loved you madly, yet you treat her as a chess piece that can be discarded at will!"
"You're only brave with your mouth," Feng Mo Ran said coldly. In his opinion, Ye Fei, a male consort, couldn't fight, couldn't even get close to him, and wanting to kill him was simply a fantasy, impossible!
"You deserve to die!" Ye Fei took out something and aimed it at Feng Mo Ran. Feng Mo Ran's attention was all on Xiao Man, and he didn't notice Ye Fei at all, but Xiao Man saw it and quickly retreated.
Ye Fei pressed the mechanism. In a moment of desperation, Xiao Man leaped into the air, using her excellent lightness skill to jump out of the attack range. Feng Mo Ran was startled and quickly protected his vital points, but was still hit by the hidden weapon.
"Ye Fei!"
"I said, you deserve to die!" Ye Fei said as if he had gone mad, "You trampled on His Majesty's true heart, and I will avenge His Majesty!"
"Madman!" Feng Mo Ran wanted to stand up but spat out a mouthful of blood, "What are you all still doing there, kill this ant."
Zhu Xiu and Yan Chi exchanged a glance and stepped forward to protect Feng Mo Ran. Zhu Xiu wanted to kill Ye Fei, but his leg injury was serious. It was easy to hobble and kill Ye Fei, but difficult to protect himself.
Yan Chi walked to Feng Mo Ran's side, drew his sword, and aimed it at Xiao Man, who had landed steadily on the ground. Feng Mo Ran stared at Xiao Man, his eyes full of hatred, "Criple her, as long as she's alive."
Yan Chi nodded, and the sword in his hand suddenly changed direction, stabbing towards Feng Mo Ran's throat. Feng Mo Ran was greatly alarmed, and relying on his keen sense of danger, he barely dodged Yan Chi's attack. A blood line appeared on his neck, and blood gushed out incessantly. However, Yan Chi did not give up, and thrust again with his sword, his dead eyes filled with hatred.
"Yan Chi, what are you doing?"
"To take your life!" Yan Chi had lost an arm, and although his combat power was not as good as before, his desperate attacks were enough to give Feng Mo Ran a hard time. Feng Mo Ran had never trusted Yan Chi, but he had no one else useful around him, so he brought Yan Chi with him. Who would have thought that Yan Chi would suddenly betray him!
"I knew it, you shameless wretch with a rebellious bone." Feng Mo Ran dodged Yan Chi's fatal attack, and only half of his remaining guards was the half-crippled Zhu Xiu.
Having suffered repeated betrayals, Feng Mo Ran put distance between himself and Zhu Xiu. He was afraid that Zhu Xiu would stab him in the back. Over the years, even though he was the high and mighty Imperial Advisor, he dared not have too many people in his manor. He dared not have anyone serve him when he slept at night, for fear of being harmed.
He had many capable subordinates, but he dared not trust them. He trusted no one but himself. Even when he was in a desperate and helpless situation, he dared not rashly trust the people under him.
"Zhu Xiu, look, what's the use of your loyalty? He doesn't trust you at all," Yan Chi approached the two and engaged in combat with Zhu Xiu. "He doesn't trust anyone. In his eyes, there are only two types of people: useful people and useless people. For useless people, he kills them quickly. For useful people, he exhausts their value to the utmost, and when they are no longer useful, he abandons them without hesitation. Such a person, is he worth following?"
Zhu Xiu said nothing and did his best to resist Yan Chi. If it were just Yan Chi alone, he might have been able to hold on, but Zhan Tian Que was watching from the side. These two were once good brothers, so how could they stand by and watch Yan Chi court death?
Xiao Man, on the other hand, pursued Feng Mo Ran. Feng Mo Ran knew that the situation was not in his favor. If he continued to confront Xiao Man head-on, he would be the one to suffer. He needed a bargaining chip, a bargaining chip to force Xiao Man to surrender!
Feng Mo Ran made a decisive move and headed into the Devil City. Xiao Man chased after him without hesitation. Yan Yu Qing dared not let Xiao Man chase in alone, after all, Xiao Man's body had not fully recovered and could not withstand such a toss. She followed them.
Zhan Tian Que helped Yan Chi deal with Zhu Xiu. Under their combined efforts, Zhu Xiu soon became a victim of the sword.
"I'll go chase Master."
"I'll go with you," Mo Mo followed without hesitation. "Leave a mechanical beast for you to guard outside and wait for the main force to arrive."
Zhan Tian Que seemed to remember something, threw a token to Yan Chi, and then flashed into the Devil City with Mo Mo. Yan Chi wanted to follow, but remembering Mo Mo's instructions, he stopped.
"Didn't you say you were no longer brothers and that you had severed ties? Why do you still dare to give me a military order of the Scarlet Feather Iron Cavalry?" Yan Chi sat down beside him, sighing.
"Yan Chi." When Wu Lan Na arrived with her men, she saw Yan Chi and several guards guarding the entrance. "You are actually here."
Wu Lan Na immediately ordered her men to capture Yan Chi, but Pei Jun stopped her. It was a fact that Yan Chi attacked Wu Lan Na, but it was also a fact that Yan Chi was with Zhan Tian Que's guards.
"Yan... Deputy Commander Yan, where did Boss Zhan go?"
"He went to chase the Empress. The Empress went to chase Feng Mo Ran," Yan Chi leaned against the wall and sat down. He was very tired. He hadn't slept well for a long time. Since his master was harmed, he hadn't slept well.
Xiang Xue wanted to follow them in, but with her abilities, she would only be a burden. She was anxious and paced back and forth at the entrance. Among the people present, only Yan Chi had the ability to go in.
"You go in and help Master," Xiang Xue grabbed Yan Chi's collar and shook him awake. "Yan Chi, this is your last chance to atone."
Yan Chi opened his eyes and glanced faintly at Xiang Xue. He didn't recognize this girl. To be precise, among the people in the dark department, he only recognized three: Qin Xue, Shangguan Jin, and Ying Xue. However, he still didn't understand what Xiao Man had the ability to make all of them submit to her.
"Yan Chi, Xiao Man is Du Gu Man, she is your master!"
Yan Chi's eyes widened: "Impossible!"
"Nothing is impossible!" Xiang Xue said urgently, "Why do you think General Zhan obeys her orders? Why do you think the dark department respects her as the leader? Why do you think she can mobilize the Asura Guards? Because she is Du Gu Man!"
"How is this possible?"
"Yan Chi, among us, only you have the ability to break into the Devil City. It's full of dangers inside. Master needs your help!" Xiang Xue knelt on the ground and begged, "Master just gave birth to the young master and is very weak. Feng Mo Ran is cunning and treacherous. Even if Master is smart and powerful, she is still just one person. You were with Feng Mo Ran for so long, and you are probably the one who knows Feng Mo Ran best. Yan Chi, please, go and help Master!"
