He was afraid that one morning when he woke up, he would be stabbed in the neck and then replaced. Unfortunately, he had never had any real power, so he could only tolerate it and boast about his capability in front of Dong Li Zhen. That kind of feeling was definitely something that no ordinary person had ever experienced before.

This kind of situation had already prevailed in the Fire Nation for more than ten years. If this continued, then one day, he would be replaced. However, whenever he made a move, Dong Li Zhen's eyes and ears would naturally appear.

For example, right now, he didn't know that Dong Li Zhen had taken charge of all the matters here after he had left Fire Brilliant Nation, and that he was the one who had captured Zi Ruo and the others.

At that time, Zi Ruo and the others were still one step away from success, but when he received the news, several people came to the palace to offer their treasures. He thought it was strange, and when he rushed over to take a look, it was actually three people from Luo Liya's group.

Even if the three of them worked together, they still wouldn't be able to deal with the Immortal Realm expert Yan Ming and the ten-odd imperial bodyguards. In the end, Zi Ruo and the others were taken captive, and didn't know that they would want to kill them in front of Huo Rong Luan, but when they captured Luo Liya, they had thought of threatening Luo Yan, but in the end, they had allowed Luo Liya to escape.

He did not expect that Huo Rong Luan would order him to temporarily stop Dong Zi Ruo and the others, saying that the matter had not been investigated, and that they did not take action before Yan Mo arrived. He did not know how to treat them, but what if they were defending themselves?

He did not know whether or not he understood that Huo Rong Luan knew that they were definitely assassins, but he did not have any evidence to convince Huo Rong Luan. In the end, he could only listen to Huo Rong Luan and take them in.

He waited until now. He didn't expect another accomplice would come at this time. He stared at the wall with red eyes as if he was going to capture him in the next second.

"Your Majesty, although I have never seen this person before, I assume that he is the accomplice of Zi Ruo's group. Your Majesty, please dodge. Your humble servant is about to take action."

His tone was impolite, he did not even look directly at Huo Rong Luan, his eyes staring straight at the wall.

He was restricted by him when Dong Li Zhen was around. After Dong Li Zhen left, he actually had to look at the face of a military officer. This emperor was such a coward!

He couldn't help but recall the words he said earlier. After so long, rather than getting swallowed up bit by bit, it would be better to fight to the bitter end. This way there was still a sliver of hope and he didn't want to continue being useless. In fact, he had already considered this matter when he left behind the lives of Zi Ruo and the others. Now that he heard what Wei Xi said and added the fact that he didn't know how arrogant and despotic he was, he couldn't hold back anymore.

He wanted to speak up to protect the wall, but he saw that the wall suddenly frowned and the corner of his mouth slightly twitched, as if reminding him not to speak.

Huo Rong Luan did not know what Jing Xi was planning, but following his intention, she did not have any reaction. Jing Xi turned to look at Yan Mo, and coldly laughed, and in that thousandth of a second, his body suddenly turned into many Xi's, forming a circle, a move that Yan Rong had never seen before, he did not even have time to react, he only saw Xi Xi's slightly curled lips, and that faint smile, made people feel terrified.

He didn't know that he was absolutely not allowed to feel fear, so he desperately summoned his true qi to attack the countless walls. However, every time he failed, the guards around him would do the same.

Was this a hallucination? As he pursed his lips and thought about it, he suddenly realized what was going on. He looked in the direction of Huo Rong Luan and saw that Wei Xi was already clutching her neck with a smile on his face. This time, his smile was one of satisfaction.

He had used a hallucination technique! His brows were tightly creased. He gritted his teeth as he looked at Wei Xi and asked, "Let go of His Majesty. If you dare to touch a single hair on his head, your life is over!"

He did not know the importance of Huo Rong Luan's life. Although Huo Rong Luan was just a puppet with no real power, and all of the military matters were decided by Dong Li Zhen, if Huo Rong Luan were to die like this, and all the citizens of Fire Worm Nation turned their backs on her, even if they wanted to hide it from the heavens, saying that Huo Rong Luan was a natural death, the citizens would not believe them. They knew in their hearts that Dong Li Zhen had already wanted to get rid of Huo Rong Luan.

The human heart was a very terrifying thing, no matter how strong Dong Li Zhen was, even if he had wiped out all of the citizens of Fire Nation, it would only make them tremble in fear. The reason he wanted to rule over the entire continent would change, and he wanted everyone to submit, not letting those commoners lose their lives.

Dong Li Zhen's thoughts were extremely complicated, he did not know what was going through his mind, but he knew that before he left, he had instructed Yun Che to not let anything happen to Huo Rong Luan.

If anything were to happen to Huo Rong Luan, his life would not be necessary.

He was afraid that there was something wrong with Huo Rong Luan, so when he saw that she was this nervous, the smile on his face became deeper and deeper. Then, he turned around and stomped his feet on the ground.

Huo Rong Luan did not have a cultivation base, and was also a little afraid of heights. She bent down and looked at the scenery below, and her legs couldn't help but tremble. The corner of her mouth slightly lifted, "Don't worry, I won't let His Majesty fall."

When Huo Rong Luan heard the sound, she quickly turned around and asked hesitantly, "You … Was it intentional? "

"Naturally, I have never thought about doing anything to Your Majesty. Has Your Majesty forgotten what I just said? I want to help His Majesty. "

Hearing what Wei Xi had said, Huo Rong Luan's nervous heart finally calmed down a little. Just now, he and Yan Wu Yun had thought that he was using his own life to threaten Dong Li Zhen. Although it seemed like it was on the surface, Huo Rong didn't think of taking his life.

"Then right now …" What exactly are your intentions? " Huo Rong Luan asked again.

He then turned to look at the soldiers who were staring at him with an unfathomable smile, "Right now, His Majesty's life is in danger, I just want to speak with the soldiers. If the Fire Nation's army does not make it in time within one day, then His Majesty's life will not be necessary, and this will be made known to the public, what say you?"

Huo Rong Luan narrowed her eyes and listened until the last sentence was spoken. She understood his meaning, "You want to save Hao Jin Kingdom?"

Wei Xi nodded. "Haojin Nation is Dongliu Jiuchen's enemy. His Majesty's enemy is Dongliu Jiuchen, and his enemy is his friend. Is there a reason for His Majesty not to help Haojin Kingdom?" Oh, I forgot. Other than that, I still have to ask for Zi Ruo and his family to be released. Although this request is too much, I believe that Dong Li Jun will agree to it.

As Huo Rong Luan listened to the analysis of the wall, she smiled and said, "Your wishful thinking is really good, but are you sure that Dong Li Ju would willingly fall for it?"

"I'm sure." Then, he surveyed the entire palace. He didn't know what condition he had, and at the same time, he whispered a reminder to Huo Ruan Luan, causing her to immediately react.

"My dearest officials, now that we have been captured, we order the soldiers, Xiangdong, to return to the imperial city immediately, without delay. This is our dictum and also our imperial edict, we cannot disobey the decree. Violators must be executed!"

His eyes stared blankly at the bottom of the palace. At this time, other than him, all of the eunuchs, palace maids, and guards were standing there, as well as the officials that came after Wen Feng. Although they listened to Dongli Zhen's orders, they were still loyal to the Fire Worm Royal Family and had yet to give birth to Huo Rong Luan.

He didn't know that under the pressure of eight hundred kilometers, he had to hurry and contact Dong Li Zhen. Before Dong Li Zhen returned, Wei Xi and Huo Rong Luan had been standing at the peak of the forbidden zone, so they first let Zi Ruo and the rest go. They also wanted Zi Ruo and the others to bring some food up there, so they could wait there for news from Dong Li Zhen.

It was unknown whether he was worried or worried, but he still had to seal off the news of the current situation in the Forbidden City. If the citizens of the Fire Nation knew that the Emperor was being held hostage or in such a comical manner, it would not be far from chaos in the world.

"What is the situation between the Yellow Plains Country and the Haojin Nation now?" They had been locked in the Sky Prison for the past two days, so their true energy was not of any use. If it wasn't for the fact that Wei Xi had thought of this idea, things would probably have been very bad.

"Dong Li Zhen is in the Country of Loess, senior Lu Qingyi was captured by Dong Li Zhen, we are thinking of a way to have him return to the Fire Nation, that way the problem can be easily resolved, and senior Lu Qingyi can also be rescued."

Di Xi kept his hand on Huo Ruan Luan's neck to make a long story short. He did not let go of her neck for even a moment as he was worried that he would not be able to catch any clues from her words. Although the peak of the Purple Taboo: Amethyst Beast was high, to an expert with excellent eyesight like Chu Feng, he would definitely be able to clearly see every single one of their movements.

Yue Ling could not help but gasp when she heard that Lu Qingyi had been captured. However, after knowing that they had already formulated a plan, she looked less nervous.

"Then will Dong Li Ju be obedient?" They had stayed in the Sky Prison for a few days. Their faces were haggard and their eyes had lost their usual high spirits. However, their eyes were firm and resolute like usual.

"I will." "We can only trust him now, or there will be no other way."

Everyone was speechless when they heard this. That's right, only by believing what they had done would there be an outcome. Only by having such a firm conviction would they not be depressed.

They had been waiting for this entire day at the peak of the Purple Taboo: Amethyst Beast Mountain Range. They had been standing there for a whole day, staring at them without moving, as if they wanted to pounce on them and hack them to pieces. However, with the trump card in his hands, he was unable to move.

When it was almost dark, Dong Li Zhen finally rushed back to Fire Nation, and then back to the Forbidden City. He flew over the wall like a real god, and the wall had naturally been prepared for him. Now that he saw Dong Li Zhen, he immediately took two steps back, and tightened his grip on Huo Rong Luan's neck.
