After three hundred rounds, Lu Yang had gained the upper hand, able to suppress Lu Tianfeng. Even though Lu Tianfeng still wielded the Black Dragon Sword, and Lu Yang hadn't used any magical treasures, he fought Lu Tianfeng with his physical body alone.
"Yang'er, you can now utilize your physical body in combat with such proficiency. Congratulations. Judging by your current state, you are at least in the mid-stage of the Divine Realm!"
"While you may not possess the imposing aura of Guo Xiaotian's late-stage Divine Realm, for someone your age to achieve such formidable cultivation is truly heaven-defying!"
"Continue your cultivation here in Youdu Prison. I will notify you immediately of any changes in the outside world!"
Lu Tianfeng said directly to Lu Yang.
"Understood, Father. I will cultivate even harder!"
Lu Yang nodded.
"Now, go and meet your old friend!"
As Lu Tianfeng spoke, he led Lu Yang outside. Soon, everyone was gathered together. Looking at Lu Yang, Queen Lingque, Cheng Wanyun, felt a complex mix of emotions. She suddenly realized that the marriage alliance between their Cheng family and the Lu family had been their best path forward. It was a pity that she had destroyed it all with her own hands. Cheng Wanyun had even rejected the proposal directly in front of everyone, and the engagement contract had been torn to shreds.
"Queen Lingque, welcome back!"
Lu Yang extended his hand very friendly, looking at Queen Lingque and smiling.
"Thank you. I feel immense guilt that a Divine Realm expert was lost in order to save me."
Queen Lingque lowered her head, her expression filled with sorrow.
"It has nothing to do with you. Bai Zijing was prepared for sacrifice. As long as you could be rescued, Bai Zijing would die with no regrets!"
"If you had fallen into the hands of the person behind the Guo family, then even if we joined forces, we would not have been that person's match. That person is simply too terrifying!"
Lu Tianfeng explained directly to Queen Lingque.
"The person behind the Guo family? Who exactly is that person?"
Lu Yang asked Lu Tianfeng with great surprise.
"It is not yet the time. I cannot tell you. When the time is right, I will tell you everything. Your task now is to cultivate well and inquire about nothing else!"
Lu Tianfeng said directly to Lu Yang.
"Alright!"
Lu Yang did not press further. Since Lu Tianfeng hadn't said anything, it meant Lu Tianfeng had his own reasons. Lu Yang naturally wouldn't pry.
Meanwhile, the elder Queen Lingque's eyes flickered with coldness, but she said nothing.
...
At this moment, in the Guo family villa in Yanjing, the entire Guo family was in an uproar.
"Queen Lingque escaped! You useless fools, what were you all doing? You couldn't even defeat a mere clone!"
As Guo Xiaotian spoke, he grabbed a man's neck with one hand. This man was his nephew, the son of Guo Dingtian. Queen Lingque was primarily guarded by Guo Dingtian's son, but unexpectedly, she was rescued by a clone of Bai Zijing.
"Uncle, I did my best. I was no match for that figure; I was completely outmatched."
Guo Dingtian's son immediately explained.
"Too powerful? Not an opponent?"
"Then what use am I to you? You might as well go down and join your father!"
With that, Guo Xiaotian exerted force, and the man's neck was directly snapped.
"A pair of trash! Anyone who fails to do their job must die!"
Guo Xiaotian turned his head and coldly roared at everyone else.
"Brother, now that Queen Lingque has escaped, what should we do? If that person asks, this matter might be difficult to explain!"
Guo Chongtian, standing beside Guo Xiaotian, immediately asked.
The two of them were the pillars of the entire country. They deeply understood the terrifying nature of that person. Even if the two of them joined forces, they could not defeat even one of that person's hands. It was also thanks to that person's help that their Guo family had risen to prominence over the years, and the two brothers had achieved Divine Realm cultivation.
"You ask me, who do I ask?"
"Find her immediately! Even if you have to dig up Yanjing City three feet deep, find Queen Lingque for me!"
Guo Xiaotian roared loudly.
"Yes!"
The others immediately agreed and then left the Guo family villa, searching for Queen Lingque and the others.
"Brother, I suspect Lu Tianfeng has already taken Queen Lingque into Youdu Prison. Even if we turn Yanjing City upside down, we won't find them. The current plan is to find a way into Youdu Prison and capture them all in one fell swoop!"
After everyone had left, Guo Chongtian continued speaking to Guo Xiaotian.
"Youdu Prison?"
"You are correct. There is a hundred percent chance they have entered Youdu Prison. Because Youdu Prison is too mysterious, I have been searching for many years. I only know it is located in Yanjing, but I cannot find its entrance, nor can I enter Youdu Prison!"
"The Youdu Prison was built by several powerful figures of Hua Country in the past. I didn't expect it to be so formidable. I wonder if this Youdu Prison can contain that person!"
Guo Xiaotian said coldly.
"I recently received information from a suicide squad member. He told me that all the outer gates of Youdu Prison have been closed. To enter Youdu Prison now, one must pass through a space-time tunnel, and this space-time tunnel is controlled solely by Lu Tianfeng. It is essentially impossible for others to enter!"
Guo Chongtian explained to Guo Xiaotian.
"Space-time tunnel?"
Upon hearing this, Guo Xiaotian snorted, "It's just a teleportation array they built, yet they dare to call it a space-time tunnel. As long as that person makes a move, they can take us into Youdu Prison in minutes!"
"However, that person is like a dragon that shows its head but not its tail. We can only wait patiently for their arrival and see what instructions they have!"
"This time, losing Queen Lingque will still incur that person's displeasure. Alas..."
Thinking of this, Guo Xiaotian was still filled with fear. He knew that person was capricious and impossible to fathom.
"Patriarch, the Falcon is back!"
At this moment, the Guo family butler walked in and said to Guo Xiaotian with extreme respect.
"Let them in!"
Guo Xiaotian said coldly.
Soon, the ten members of the Falcon entered the hall and knelt before Guo Xiaotian.
"Patriarch, your subordinates have failed in their duties. When we went to Jiangbei City, the entire Haitong Group had been shut down, Black Dragon Capital was also closed, and all people related to Lu Yang had disappeared. It was as if they had all fled overnight!"
The Falcon said directly to Guo Xiaotian.
"What?"
"This damned fellow is actually so vigilant!"
Upon hearing this, Guo Xiaotian's eyes flashed with coldness.
"Alright, you may withdraw. Prepare yourselves. Our next target is Flying Tiger King!"
Guo Xiaotian thought for a moment and said to the Falcon.
