2819 Abnormal

Mo Lian swiftly turned away and exited the prison cell, his gaze briefly settling on Duan Yue’s smug expression as he pursed his thin lips. “What’s going on?”

“Could it be that the Night Pavilion’s underlings have never rebelled before?” Mo Lian mused, a hint of sarcasm creeping into his tone. He couldn’t help but think about the absurd names the Crown Prince had come up with, starting from Ao’ye and Xiao’ye at night…

“Humph,” Crown Prince Mo replied, his pride evident as he turned to leave.

But then, the terrified screams of Jin Chaoyang reached their ears. “Let me out! What do you want? Don’t lock me up here! Please, don’t! Where are you taking me? Kill me! Kill me!”

“Shut up,” Duan Yue snapped, his gaze icy as he silenced Jin Chaoyang. With a sly smile, he added, “For now, all I need is your cooperation and a bit of your blood.”

“I won’t cooperate! Do you want to end up like him?” Jin Chaoyang retorted, gesturing toward the figure cowering in the corner.

Jin Chaoyang trembled and wilted under the pressure, nodding repeatedly. “I won’t resist. I’ll help you however I can.”

Duan Yue shot him a glance before leaving the prison cell as well.

Once outside the dungeon, Huifeng approached and inquired, “Your Highness, what should we do with the prisoners inside?”

“Handle it,” Mo Lian replied indifferently.

He knew that staying in that dungeon, neither alive nor dead, was its own kind of torment. In a way, that person had been of great help to him.

“Very well,” Huifeng agreed and dispatched a hidden guard to deal with the incapacitated individual in the dungeon.

However, before long, the entire dungeon resonated with a deafening hum. Unaware of the situation, the hidden guards stationed at the door moved to investigate, only to be sent flying by a sudden gust of wind that knocked them to the ground with a heavy thud.

Mo Lian and Duan Yue’s expressions shifted simultaneously as they rushed forward, reentering the dungeon.

Inside the dungeon, the aftermath of the chaos was evident, with shattered bricks and the once-sturdy wooden fence now torn asunder by an inexplicable force.

Luckily, Su Xuetao had been shielded by two hidden guards, sparing him from serious injuries. On the other hand, Jin Chaoyang, who had already sustained severe injuries earlier, had been flung out by the force and lay gasping for breath at the dungeon entrance, clearly on the brink of collapse.

Su Xuetao quickly ordered someone to carry Jin Chaoyang out for immediate medical attention.

The numerous hidden guards remaining inside the dungeon stood vigilant around Crown Prince Mo, their gazes fixed upon the vaguely ominous figure within the cage.

It had been this person’s body that had emitted an overwhelming surge of energy, causing half of the prison cell to crumble into ruins just moments ago.

/Who exactly was this individual?/

/He had been paralyzed and immobile, so how could he radiate such potent energy?/

Duan Yue narrowed his eyes as he scrutinized the enigmatic figure.

The peculiar person, previously curled up in the corner, had now risen and was staring intently at both Mo Lian and Duan Yue.

Mo Lian furrowed his brow. “This person is highly unusual. Proceed with caution.”

“Your Highness, there seems to be an opening here,” Huifeng’s voice suddenly drew everyone’s attention.

Mo Lian and Duan Yue advanced in succession, confirming the presence of a hole within the quilt that partitioned the prison cell.

Concealed gusts of wind poured in from the opening, their origins shrouded in obscurity. The extent of their source remained elusive.

Huifeng’s form wavered, and Mo Lian swiftly reached out to steady him.

A potent suction force seemed to emanate from beneath the ground. Any unsuspecting person standing at the entrance would undoubtedly be drawn inside if not vigilant.
