Willow tightly pursed his lips, standing proudly on the spot, but no matter how arrogant and untouchable his posture was, in the eyes of the crowd, he was already weak and powerless.

"Pei Lipu, you're the traitor of the Madam! You're the one who has no right to stay here!" Chief Yu, seeing that his young master had been humiliated, immediately stood up to protect him.

"I am a traitor." This time, for the first time ever, Pei Lipu did not refute her. He only smiled and said with an incomparably relaxed tone of affirmation, "I betrayed Madam."

Everyone was surprised. They all looked at He Lan Xue, Supervisor You and Yi Jian. Looking at him.

When Pei Lipu was young, he was definitely a handsome young man that was not inferior to Pei Ruochen. Even though he had been hit by the wind and frost for more than ten years, the charm of his smile was not the least bit inferior to Pei Ruochen's.

"Father …" Although Pei Ruochen had long since heard these words, she had never actually admitted to it.

Now, in front of all these people, he had spoken out in public.

His revered father...

In the end, he was a traitor.

"But have you ever wondered why I betrayed the Lady?" Pei Lipu laughed again, and his gaze involuntarily shifted to the image on the ground once more.

"Father, don't look. There's something strange about that sculpture." Pei Ruochen tried to stop him — The others did not fall under the same attack as the Martial Lord.

Pei Lipu stubbornly pushed him away, focusing on the image on the ground. "That's right, who would betray her? Who would think of betraying her? She wasn't a person from the mortal realm. Even if it was just for her eyes, any man could die for her. How could she have thought that I would betray her? "

"Father!" Seeing how Pei Linpu's eyes were gradually glazed over and filled with confusion, Pei Zi Yun knew that things were not going well. He then shouted into Pei Zi Yun's ear, and was about to pull him out.

"All these years, I've been wondering whether I did the right thing or the wrong thing. "I thought that everything I had done was for Madam's own good, but I was wrong, who would have thought that it would end like this, who would have thought that I would be the one behind all this, I love Madam so much, if she was happy, I would even be willing to be stepped on by her, it's my fault, it's all my fault …"

"Father, what are you talking about?" Pei Ruochen shook him worriedly, trying to pull his consciousness back to reality. "Father, did you forget that Madam Xi had committed many evil deeds and killed many innocent people? It was father's righteous cause that protected the He Lan family."

"What's the He Lan family's Jiang Shan?!" Pei Linfu suddenly became vicious and turned to glare fiercely at Pei Ruochen. He shouted with all his might: "This mountain and river belongs to Madam! It was He Lan Wushuang who cheated it away from Madam! Ruochen, you must promise me that one day, you will take back this river and mountain, and return it to Madam — perhaps Madam will forgive me when she is happy, Madam will forgive me, she has always been kind, kind, and always smiled at me … "

"Father, Prime Minister!" Do you really know what you're talking about!? " Pei Ruochen yelled out as she grabbed Pei Linfeng by the shoulder.

He Lan Xue scoffed but didn't say a word.

The shout from Pei Ruochen seemed to have some effect. As expected, Pei Lipu stopped talking and just stood still. His gaze gradually turned into one.

The people in the hall were silent for a moment.

"If you know that you have reneged on your promise, you should help the Young Lord retake the land, overthrow the He Lan Clan, and avenge his wife." In the end, the supervisor took the initiative to break the deadlock, cleared his throat, and said.

"Liu Ruyi's unfilial son. What kind of young master is that?" "Ruochen, your sister Ruochen is already pregnant. If she gave birth to a prince, you must help her ascend to the throne, then change her title to 'Rest of the Country'."

"His Majesty will know what to do with the Emperor. As his subject, how can I interfere?" Pei Ruochen retorted in a low voice.

Pei Lipe stared at him before suddenly turning around to face He Lan Xue. His expression had already been completely restored, and he had returned to being the most capable and cool-headed Prime Minister of the imperial court.

"Your highness was originally a person who deserved to be punished, but if Your highness were able to find Madam Xi's Supreme Map and offer it to Your Majesty, then you would definitely be able to atone for your deeds. At that time, perhaps His Majesty will think of his brotherhood and won't pursue the crime of desecrating his royal sister. "

He Lan Xue's expression changed. She then lowered her head with a faint smile. She muttered to herself, "Blasphemy against my imperial sister-in-law …" The smile was faint, but the bitterness was gone.

He had been stung.

"Your Highness." Yi Jian went up to comfort him, but He Lan Xue shook her hand. She raised her head and looked at Pei Lin Pu leisurely and said, "Regarding this crime, I don't need a pardon."

"Your highness is indeed responsible, but if this gets out, it won't be good for the empress's reputation." Pei Liping smiled back and said softly, "The empress and her highness have been involved in such a scandal. How will the empress behave like a mother to the world in the future?"

He Lan Xue bitterly smiled again, but didn't answer.

As expected, he couldn't do anything about it. Even though he was severely injured, even though he was numb to it, he still couldn't do anything about it.

"I hope that Your Highness will do his best to help this subject find the Supreme Being Map. This subject can also help Your Highness conceal the truth in front of everyone in the world." A look of understanding appeared on Pei Linpu's face as he added this sentence.

"Your Highness!" Yi Jian had long been filled with righteous indignation, but without He Lan Xue's instructions, he didn't dare act rashly.

He Lan Xue used her gaze to stop Yi Jian from speaking. She then said lightly, "As long as I can find my lover, everything else is up to you."

At least there will be no more disturbance from here.

His gaze then shifted to the Willow, and when he saw it, his eyes went cold. "As for you two, you don't need me to say anything, right? You have no right to be in the Lady's grave. "

"You —" The supervisor was so angry that he almost wanted to fight to the death with Pei Linpu, but all of a sudden, he raised his head and looked directly at Pei Linpu with his dim eyes, as if he could see him. "I am her son!" Liu Mei said one word at a time and coldly said, "No matter what happened in the previous generation, I was born the son of this amazing Madam Xi. I have no choice but to do it!" As for you, you can choose to become thieves, but you choose to steal what my mother left behind. The ones who are not qualified are you, not me! "

This was almost a complaint.

No matter what happened to Madam Xi, no matter what happened to Liu Ruyi, she was innocent. He didn't have the right to choose who gave birth to her.

However, ever since he was born, his entire life had been predestined.

Never chosen, never chosen.

However, even though he was born with such an identity, today, he was mocked by others to his heart's content.

How innocent!

And the only thing he could do was to persevere. Persisting on this path that he had not chosen, walking down this path till the end!

"The map is mine, none of you are allowed to take it." Willow said firmly.

Chief You looked gratifyingly at the young master that he had personally brought up. Finally, in his resolute expression, he could vaguely see some traces of his wife from back then.

"What exactly is a Zhizun realm painting?" Outside the mirror, her lips curled into a resentful expression. A bunch of people were fighting to the death over a picture. She didn't know what to say.

She rubbed her eyes, took a step back, stepped back to the hourglass, and looked around again.

It was better to leave this place as soon as possible.

It was just that the surroundings were empty and airtight. There was no way to find it.

The man sighed, feeling tired of standing, and leaned against the hourglass, his elbows on the stone, his joints pressed into the puddle of water.

There was only the sound of a loud explosion. The screen that had been so dazzling earlier became a black screen. The mirror room suddenly sank into darkness, and the stone that her lover had pressed down deeply sunk into the ground.

The lover stumbled again and fell solidly to the ground.

The place where the stone had been had now become flat ground. His lover who was leaning on it had naturally fallen like a dog eating mud.

Fortunately, her lover was constantly wrestling, falling and falling, and she had gotten used to it.

She laid on the ground for a while and took a breather. Only when the water droplets from the stone pipe dripped into her hair did she get up on all fours. She hugged her sore knees and twisted her neck, looking around at the complete darkness.

Could it be that he accidentally pressed the main switch, causing the power to be cut? thought the man gloomily.

She stayed like this in the darkness for a long time, until she heard an extremely arrogant laughter coming from next door. It was fierce and aged, "Hahahahaha!"

Her lover looked curiously in the direction of the voice, but saw nothing but darkness.

"I've finally found you in the Supreme Diagram!" As the laughter ended, the voice shouted out.

Then, there was no sound.

Her lover blinked and quickly recognized the voice: It was the Martial Lord who had fainted earlier.

Why did he come back to the cemetery?

No wonder there was no trace of him in the hall. The Martial Lord had awoken and had sneaked into the tomb quietly.

The sound was very close, perhaps just a wall away, or it was simply ringing in his ears.

Could it be that all those glass walls were gone?

She stood up shakily and stretched out her hand, feeling her way in the direction of the sound.

After walking a few steps, she touched a wall, but it was not made of glass. It seemed to be a stone door, and the feeling of her tentacles was very rough. If he used a little more force, it might be able to shake her. She simply pressed her body against it, using all her strength to push herself forward.

With a 'boom', the stone door fell down.

Unfortunately for her, she fell to the ground with her four bodies and her nose against the stone. She tasted blood on her tongue.

What a sin.

The people in the room raised the fire sickles in their hands and shone them over.

When she looked up, all she saw was a miserable old face. Under the weak light, it looked like a ghost.

"Martial Lord!" She let out another sweet cry, and her eyes narrowed as she laughed heartily.

Martial Lord raised the fire sickle in his hand and pointed it at her.
