After Fang Yue sneaked into the courtyard, he began to explore in depth under the identity of a guard. The layout of the courtyard was complicated, and every place seemed extremely tight, obviously to prevent any possible escape or rescue.

He walked carefully through the corridors, listening carefully to every tiny sound. Finally, he came to a room with two guards outside. There was a faint light coming through the crack in the door, and he could faintly hear the sound of metal colliding.

Fang Yue knew that he was very close to his goal.

He quietly approached the two guards, used his martial arts to subdue them silently in an instant, and dragged them to a hidden corner.

Then, he took out a special hidden weapon and gently pried open the door lock of the room.

The door slowly opened, and Fang Yue saw that the interior of the room was very simple, without too much decoration, but there was an imperceptible tension in the air.

In the center of the room stood a heavy stone table, with some documents and tools scattered on it.

But there was no one in it.

"be cheated!"

Fang Yue's heart trembled, and he immediately realized that this was a trap. He quickly scanned the surroundings, looking for possible clues or hidden mechanisms, while thinking about how to deal with the next crisis.

At this moment, a slight mechanical turning sound suddenly came from a corner of the room, followed by a metal collision sound.

Then, a series of heavy iron plates fell down, completely sealing the room.

Then the explosives buried in the room were detonated.

Fang Yue's heart tightened, and he immediately realized that he was trapped in a carefully designed trap.

The faint sound of the explosives going off gave him no time to think, and he had to act quickly to avoid the impending explosion.

He looked around, and then all the energy in his body exploded wildly.

Without time to hesitate, Fang Yue attacked the cage horizontally.

He directly broke through the sealed iron wall and rushed into the yard outside.

At the same time, there was a loud noise of explosives exploding behind him, and the whole room was engulfed by fierce flames and shock waves.

Fang Yue rushed out of the room, and before he could stabilize his body, he sensed the powerful aura surging around him. His heart sank, knowing that he was in a more dangerous situation. The appearance of dozens of masters undoubtedly made his already difficult escape even more difficult.

However, Fang Yue remained noncommittal.

A master is a master. No matter how many people there are, they cannot compare to the grand master.

As long as he wants to leave, no one here can stop him.

"Fang Yue, hand over that thing and I'll let you walk out alive, otherwise you will definitely die today!"

At this time, a cold voice came from the camp of grandmasters, with unquestionable majesty and coldness in the voice.

Fang Yue sneered when he heard this.

Sure enough, the value of the jade book was even greater than he had imagined.

Fang Yue sneered in his heart, and a look of determination flashed in his eyes. He knew very well that the importance of this jade book had far exceeded his expectations, and in order to get it back, Yang Chan did not hesitate to set up many traps and even mobilized dozens of masters.

"Hmph, Yang Chan, do you think you can keep me here like this?" Fang Yue's voice was filled with sarcasm and disdain. His whole body was filled with vitality, as he prepared to deal with the upcoming battle.

Upon hearing this, the masters shouted angrily and rushed towards Fang Yue. They knew that Fang Yue's strength should not be underestimated, but they were numerous and all masters, so they were confident that they could take Fang Yue down.

Fang Yue flashed and shuttled between the masters like a ghost. He used his speed and martial arts to engage in fierce battles with these masters. Every battle shocked and terrified the masters. They did not expect Fang Yue's strength to be so strong.

However, despite Fang Yue's great strength, he also knew that he could not deal with these masters for a long time, otherwise he would be exhausted by these masters sooner or later.

As long as Fang Yue was determined to leave, these people couldn't stop him.

Fang Yue easily escaped from the encirclement and was able to get away from Zhenbei City in just a few breaths.

"Fang Yue, stop immediately. If you dare to leave, our Marquis will definitely kill the Empress of Wei!" At this moment, seeing that Fang Yue was about to escape, the leading master gritted his teeth and said.

Upon hearing this, Fang Yue paused slightly, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

Seeing Fang Yue had indeed stopped, Chen Jizong continued, "As long as you hand over the Marquis's things, the Marquis agrees to let the Queen of Wei go. What do you think?"

Hearing this, Fang Yue curled up the corner of his mouth into a sneer, with a determined light flashing in his eyes.

He knew very well that the importance of this jade book far exceeded his expectations, and in order to get it back, Yang Chan did not hesitate to set numerous traps and even mobilized dozens of masters.

"Humph, your threats are meaningless to me. The safety of the Queen of Wei has nothing to do with me!"

There was determination in Fang Yue's voice, and his whole body was filled with energy as he prepared to charge again.

Chen Jizong's face changed when he saw this. He knew that Fang Yue was very powerful. If he was allowed to break out of the encirclement, the consequences would be disastrous.

So he gritted his teeth and said:
"Fang Yue, don't refuse a toast! You should be clear about our Lord's strength. If you insist on doing it, not only will you die within the borders of the Great Chu, but you will also implicate the Queen of the Great Wei!"

However, Fang Yue just sneered, as he knew very well that Yang Chan's power was enormous.

But the more threatening he was, the more suspicious he became.

Did Yang Chan really catch Zhu Linlang?

After all, judging from the information we received, Zhu Linlang was very likely in Yang Chan's hands.

However, his sources of intelligence were unreliable.

In other words, the internal guards of the Great Chu may not be trustworthy!

After all, if you really want to talk about it, he is the outsider.

The Inner Guards of the Great Chu State and the Marquis of Guanjun are the real Chu people!
If they were working together to deal with him, they were also being cleared out. Fang Yue sneered even more, knowing very well that in the game of power, intelligence was often like a fog, and it was difficult to distinguish true from false.

The internal guards of the Great Chu, even the most secretive information, may just be a bait to confuse and restrain the opponent.

"Humph, Chen Jizong, do you think you can shake me with such a clumsy lie? Let me tell you, Lord Hou, I am not one to be frightened. If it is just words, then there is no need to say more."

"You said that the Queen of Wei is here, why not have someone come out to confirm it."

Fang Yue's voice was cold and firm, and his vitality surged again, as if he was ready to break through the obstacles at any time. He knew that once he broke out of the encirclement, he would be able to completely get rid of this dangerous situation.

Chen Jizong's face darkened when he heard this. He didn't expect Fang Yue to be so stubborn and not even pay attention to the Marquis's threats. He knew that if he dragged on, Fang Yue might really break out.

"Fang Yue, you are forcing us to take action! Don't think you can really escape. There are so many of us here, and each one of them is a master-level expert. Do you think you can fight ten of us alone?" Chen Jizon's voice was filled with anger, and he had lost his patience.

However, Fang Yue just smiled contemptuously, his eyes full of desire for battle and confidence in victory.

"One against ten? So what? Can you stop me?"

There was an unquestionable confidence in Fang Yue's words, and his eyes seemed to be able to penetrate the night and look directly into the hearts of Chen Jizong and the other masters.

"Our Lord is of course very sincere. As long as you wait for a moment, I will immediately send someone to invite the Queen of Wei to come and prove that what I said is true."

There was a hint of relaxation in Chen Jizong's words, trying to convince Fang Yue in a more rational way.

"Hmph, Chen Jizon, do you think I will still believe in any of your promises? In my opinion, your Lordship's 'sincerity' is nothing but a series of traps and lies. If you want to prove that the Empress of Wei is really in your hands, let her speak for herself, instead of relying on your mouth." Fang Yue responded coldly, his eyes full of disdain and vigilance.

Chen Jizong's face darkened when he heard this. He knew that Fang Yue had lost trust in them, which made him feel very difficult. However, he also understood that if he could not keep Fang Yue at this time, the consequences would be disastrous.

"Fang Yue, don't go too far! Our Marquis has already shown enough sincerity. If you don't know what's good for you, don't blame us for being rude!" A master shouted angrily. He had reached the limit of his patience and was ready to take action.

Fang Yue just smiled contemptuously, and his figure suddenly rose up, like a ghost, shuttling between the masters. His speed was extremely fast, and every move was precise and fierce, making it difficult for the opponent to defend.

"Hmph, you are a bunch of rabble, and you dare to be rude to me? Today, I will let you see the true strength of Fang Yue!" Fang Yue's words were filled with strong confidence, his vitality raged like a storm, making the masters around him feel pressured.

Under Fang Yue's fierce attack, the masters retreated one after another. Although they were numerous, they seemed so vulnerable in front of Fang Yue's terrifying strength. Chen Jizong was shocked when he saw this. He knew that if this continued, Fang Yue might really break through.

"Fang Yue, wait a minute! I... I will go and ask the Queen of Wei to come over right now, you... don't be impulsive!" Chen Jizong shouted hurriedly, trying to delay time while looking for new countermeasures.

However, Fang Yue just sneered. He did not stop, but attacked the masters even more fiercely.

At this moment, there was a commotion in the distance.

Fang Yue sensed a powerful aura rising.

The powerful aura was like the scorching sun, instantly attracting Fang Yue's attention. He immediately realized that the owner of this aura was no ordinary person, and it was likely another powerful person sent by Yang Chan, or a more difficult existence.

"Humph, it seems that Yang Chan is really eager to kill me." Fang Yue sneered in his heart, but his eyes became more determined. He knew that retreating at this time was definitely not his style. No matter who came, he would fight to the end.

The commotion in the distance was getting closer and closer. With heavy footsteps, a strong man in a black robe slowly stepped into the battlefield.

Every step he took seemed to be on the void, leaving behind a trail of afterimages, showing his unfathomable cultivation.

He is a grand master!

Facing the sudden arrival of a great master, Fang Yue's expression did not waver at all, but instead aroused his fighting spirit. He knew that this battle would be a critical moment for him to prove himself and break through his own limits.

"Grandmaster? Humph, you've come just in time. Let me see how strong you are!" Fang Yue's voice was filled with a heroic spirit that should not be underestimated. His vitality was boiling, like the foreshadowing of a volcanic eruption, full of destructive power.

The black-robed Grandmaster walked slowly forward, and every step seemed to contain the truth of heaven and earth. His eyes were deep, as if he could see through people's hearts. He looked directly at Fang Yue and slowly said, "Fang Yue, you do have some ability, but today, you can't escape. Hand over the Jade Book, and I can save your life."

"Humph, you want to save my life? Are you worthy of that?" Fang Yue sneered, and took the initiative to attack. He knew that facing a great master, only by going all out could he have a chance of survival.

The confrontation between the two was like a thunderclap. The shock wave generated by the collision of vital energy made the surrounding masters retreat one after another, not daring to approach. Although Fang Yue's cultivation was slightly inferior, his martial arts skills were superb and his body movements were strange. For a while, he was evenly matched with the great master.

However, as time went on, Fang Yue gradually felt the pressure doubled. The Grandmaster had profound cultivation and almost endless vitality. Every attack contained the power to destroy the world. Fang Yue had to rely on his speed and agility to barely hold on.

"Fang Yue, you are already at the end of your strength, why bother to resist in vain? Hand over the jade book, I can assure you that the Queen of Wei will be safe and sound." There was a hint of indifference in the voice of the black-robed grandmaster. He did not seem to be in a hurry and was full of confidence in the outcome of this battle.

Upon hearing this, Fang Yue curled up his lips into a sneer. He was already certain that Yang Chan had not caught Zhu Linlang.

Otherwise, they would not have used delaying tactics to delay him again and again.

"Fang Yue, you do have some abilities, but in my eyes, you are still just a junior. Today, I will let you see the true strength of a grandmaster!"

The black-robed grandmaster's voice was filled with indifference and majesty, and his whole body was filled with vitality, as if he wanted to bring the world under his control.

When Fang Yue saw this, a trace of solemnity flashed in his eyes.

He knew that this battle would be the toughest one in his life, but he also understood that only by defeating this grandmaster could he truly prove himself and break through his own limits.

"Humph, so what if he's a Grandmaster? I, Fang Yue, have never been afraid of him before! Today, let me experience how powerful a Grandmaster is!"

There was an unyielding pride in Fang Yue's voice, and his vital energy surged again, as if it wanted to resonate with the heaven and earth and release even more terrifying power.

As Fang Yue roared, the vital energy in his body raged like a storm, and his figure turned into a flash of lightning, launching a fierce attack on the black-robed grandmaster again.

At this moment, Fang Yue has put his own life and death aside. He has only one belief, which is to fight to the end and never surrender!

Upon seeing this, the black-robed grandmaster snorted coldly. His entire body was filled with vitality, and he seemed to have transformed into a towering mountain. No matter how Fang Yue attacked, he could not shake him at all.

The confrontation between the two was like a loud thunderclap. The shock waves generated by the collision of vital energy made the surrounding masters retreat one after another, not daring to get close.

However, despite Fang Yue's great strength, he knew that he could not deal with the grandmaster for long.

After all, although they were both Grandmasters, he himself was injured, while the other party was unharmed! (End of this chapter)
