It seemed like the wolfhound had found some clues. The Azure Dragon walked beside the wolfhound and used its strength to pedal a few times on the grass underbrush. He realized that the soil in the underbrush was relatively loose.

"Your Majesty, it seems that we have to dig open this lawn to find out if there is a universe below." The Azure Dragon stepped forward and said.

"Yes, let the guards start digging now." Helian Shan couldn't wait any longer. He must find out where the Black Wood Zana was today.

With the king's promise, the green dragon immediately ordered the guards to find tools to dig up the lawn.

Yuwen Tuo supported One-Feather Dance and retreated a few steps. She was pregnant now and had to be careful of everything. He repeatedly urged her to stand at the side and not to move too far forward in case of accidents.

"Tuo, do you think that witch, Black Wood Zana, will leave from here?" Helian Shan stood coldly at the side the entire time. Several guards had already begun digging and believed that the results would be revealed very soon.

Yuwen Tuo didn't participate in last night's operation. However, after hearing about it from the Azure Dragon and the others, he believed that the witch must have had helpers hidden in the palace. She must have had something amiss to be able to leave without anyone noticing.

"With this subject, there's a high chance that there's a passage beneath the lawn!" Yuwen Tuo pondered for a moment before giving his opinion.

Helian Zhang also felt that his words made sense. If they could escape under his gaze, then there must be a secret passage in this palace hall that no one knew about.

"It's empty down there!" At this moment, one of the guards dug the grass layer away with a shovel, revealing a big hole.

Helian Shan and Yuwen Tuo immediately went up to check. Not daring to show any weakness, Dancing Single Feather also followed and looked at the situation.

Sure enough, there was a large enough hole for two people. The Azure Dragon ordered the imperial bodyguards to go down and take a look, but Helian Shan was already impatient from waiting up there. He personally jumped down to take a look.

"Your Majesty, be careful. Bring the fire piston." Zhao Changde worriedly shouted, and threw the fire piston in his hand to the king.

"Azure Dragon, you guys follow me and take a look." One Feather Dance was worried, and asked the king to follow a few guards.

Even if she hated him and blamed him, if something were to happen to him below, how could she explain it to Cen Xue who was far away in the Everlasting Mountain?

The green dragon immediately followed him. The area below was extremely large. It was simply unimaginable.

Yuwen Tuo embraced Yiyu Wu and waited at the top. He really didn't expect that there would be a tunnel under the backyard of the Immortal Mansion. It seemed that they had long since prepared this well.

Helian Lie held a fire piston in his hand. In front of him were two guards who were scouting the road. The tunnel seemed to be very long. It must have been dug for quite some time, but why hadn't he noticed it?

"My Lord, be careful of the top of your head." The guard who was scouting ahead warned him cautiously.

"Yes." Helian Lie had been following behind him the entire time. Behind him was the Azure Dragon.

Helian Shan's fire piston searched the ground from time to time. With his sharp eyes, he occasionally saw traces of blood on the ground. It seemed that Black Wood Zana and the others had indeed escaped from this place.

After the time it took for half an incense stick to burn, they arrived at the end of the tunnel. The two guards in front of them pushed aside the obstacles and jumped up, leaving the tunnel.

Helian Shan stood on the other side of the tunnel. It was obvious that this place was no longer within the palace. Looking around, there was actually a house here.

"Your Majesty, there's no need to look for them. They must have snuck out of the city last night. I'm afraid they're already far away from the city. Even if we send out troops to chase them, we won't be able to do so." In the room, the green dragon found blood stains and bandages on the ground that were likely left behind by Zha Na.

The anger in Helian Lie's heart almost erupted when he saw the blood stains and bandages that were left behind. He had finally found this opportunity with great difficulty, but he didn't expect his efforts to be in vain. Black Wood Zana …

"Azure Dragon, what do you think about this matter?" Helian Lie's face was ashen. If anyone did anything wrong now, they would definitely die miserably.

"My lord, it must have been Pachaya's men who did it. They must have stayed here before and dug a passage to the Immortal Temple. Perhaps this passage was formed earlier." The green dragon did not dare to exaggerate, nor did he dare to hide anything.

Helian Shan agreed with all of this. He had never thought that he would be able to miss this point. However, now that Black Wood Zana had fled, what was Cen Xue's enemy supposed to do? Who was he going to get to take revenge on this?

"Damned Black Wood Zana, Green Dragon, listen up. Send ten Dark Guard out of the city. You must find the place for her. That woman must die by her own hands!" Helian Lie would never let him off. Even if he had to make an enemy out of the entire Easton Continent, he would not let her off.

"The Azure Dragon obeys the decree. It will definitely find the Black Wood Zana!" The Azure Dragon cupped his fists as he knelt on one knee, as if he was ready to die.

Inside the immortal palace, Yuwen Tuo and the others had been waiting for them for the time it took an incense stick to burn. Why hadn't they returned after such a long time? This caused Dan Yu Wu to feel somewhat depressed.

"Tuo, should we send more people down to take a look? I'm a bit worried. Is there a trap set by the Black Wood Family down there?" If there really is one, then wouldn't they be in danger? " One Feather Dance tugged on the corner of Yuwen Tuo's clothes, her face filled with anxiety.

"It's fine, wait a little longer." Yuwen Tuo was quite confident in them. He believed that if something really happened to them, they would be able to deal with it.

Zhao Chengde paced back and forth at the cave entrance. He wasn't worried about the king, he had been gone for so long, why hadn't he come back yet?

"What are you all doing here?" An elderly voice was heard, and everyone turned around to look at the source of the voice. It was actually Dr. Keser.

One-Pun Wu immediately let go of Yuwen Tuo and ran to Hei Se's side to help him to walk towards the cave entrance: "We've found a tunnel entrance here. The king has personally gone down to check and it's already been an incense stick's worth of time since we last came back. We were worried that something might have happened?"

Heather walked into the cave, glancing at the cave, thinking, this Pachaea man is pretty good, he can actually dig a tunnel in the palace without alerting anyone.

"It's nothing, the king must have gone along the tunnel. If I'm not wrong, this tunnel must have led outside the palace. Only by doing so can Black Wood Zana escape unscathed, avoiding the eyes of so many people." Even though he didn't ambush her last night at the Celestial Mansion, the Azure Dragon mentioned the situation. If it wasn't for this tunnel, she wouldn't have been able to escape last night's ambush.

Sigh …

Yiyu Wu sighed heavily. She knew nothing about what happened last night, so she rushed over to the palace as soon as she heard the news. She didn't expect that that woman would run away. It really wasn't worth it!

This was not a place for a pregnant woman to come. She should have a good pregnancy now, but she could not get involved in these things. If she were to get angry, it would not be good.

"Does this mean that the king has already left the palace?" Yuwen Tuo had already thought of this.

"Mm, it should be outside the palace. Don't worry, the king is such a big person, what can happen to him?" Heather wasn't as surprised as the other young men. After all, she was old and had seen a lot of things.

"Dr. Kerser is right. Wait a moment, the king might be back soon." Zhao Changde had accompanied His Majesty for more than ten years, and he was well aware of him. He believed that no problem would be difficult for him.

Helian Lie's group walked back along the tunnel. They were already familiar with the terrain after the previous trip, and they were no longer as timid as they were before. In less than half an incense's time, they could see the light ahead.

"The king is back!" The guards outside the cave shouted.

"Really? This old man said that nothing would happen." Heather looked at them with a hint of pride in her tone.

Helian Shan was the first to exit the cave and extinguish the fire piston. Zhao Changde immediately went forward to help the king tidy up his clothes, and on the way down, he was inevitably covered in some dust.

"Your Majesty, are you alright?" Zhao Chengde asked while he organized. Yuwen Tuo and the rest of the group had already rushed over.

Helian Zhang patted the dirt off his body. His face was tense and his complexion didn't look any better.

"Even if I have to turn Easton's continent over, I have to dig up the black wood Zana!" Helian Shan's eyes were filled with killing intent. This time, she could be considered lucky. However, she was injured by the Soul Suppressing Nail. If she didn't die, she would at least have half her life remaining.

"Your Majesty, please calm your anger. The Black Wood Zana has done all sorts of evil deeds. The heavens will definitely punish her. This will happen sooner or later. Moreover, she is severely injured, so she will not be able to live for long." Heather looked at the killing intent in the king's eyes, wanting to dissolve the hatred in his heart.

"I wouldn't pity that woman even if she were to die a hundred times!" One Feather Dance hated Black Wood Zana to the bones. This time, she was able to escape, so it was hard for her to accept this defeat.

Luckily she was heavily injured, but she had escaped. If she did not hear news of her death, she could not reveal the matter of Cen Xue to prevent that woman from having eyes and ears in the palace.

"This passageway leads to the outside of the palace. In order to prevent any unexpected incidents, Azure Dragon, send someone to seal off this passageway!" Helian Shan absolutely did not allow this tunnel to remain. He was afraid that in the future, Pachaya or someone else would infiltrate the palace through this tunnel.

"Understood …"

He had said everything that he wanted to say. He was in a very bad mood right now. Leaving behind the group of people behind him, he strode away alone. It was his mistake not to be able to see Black Wood Zana die in his hands.

Yuwen Tuo understood Helian Lie's thoughts the most. Looking at his lonely figure as he left, he sighed silently. Cen Xue's departure was a pain that he would never be able to recover from in his life.

Dan Yu Wu looked at her husband beside her. She could understand what he was thinking, but she had to keep this secret in her heart until news of Black Wood Zana's death reached her ears.

Within the ice room, Helian Shan had no face to face Cen Xue again. Looking at her lonely corpse, he thought back to the happy scenes of the two of them in the past, and his heart bled.

Drop by drop …

"Xue'er, Xue'er, I've let you down, I've let you down …" Standing next to the crystal coffin, no one could feel the pain in his heart anymore. It was as if ten thousand swords had pierced his heart. Just as Yuwen Tuo thought, this wound would never heal.
