Mu Yuan knew that he should not show any flaws in front of the emperor, and also knew that the emperor was probably cheating him.But knowing it is one thing, being able to do it is another.

He knew that Zhang Ce was standing beside the emperor, and he knew that he could see Zhang Ce when he tilted his head, at least he could ask Zhang Ce with his eyes whether the emperor was telling the truth.

But he can't.

It took him a lot of willpower to finally control his desire to turn his head to ask Zhang Ce for verification, and he finally calmed down.

"I can tell you where Yaodian is now. But you have to let me see Du Yue first." Mu Yuan said.

As soon as this remark came out, the emperor was slightly taken aback.

Even if there was only a moment of stupefaction, Mu Yuan still caught him.

He finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Just with this look towards the emperor, Du Yue is probably not in his hands.

But soon, the emperor regained his composure: "Mr. Mu is indeed a smart man. If you are willing to make such a choice, it would be the best. I can let you see Lord Wolf King, but you can only watch from a distance. He glanced."

But Mu Yuan only sneered: "Since I want to see you, I must ask him personally to make sure he is safe and well."

"Did Mr. Mu do something wrong? Now the lives of both of you are in my hands! What qualifications do you have to negotiate terms with me?"

Seeing the emperor's reaction like this, Mu Yuan became more and more sure that nothing should happen now, so he said indifferently: "If that's the case, why are you so anxious, Your Majesty?"

"you!"

Hearing this, the emperor quickly realized that Mu Yuanfang was deceiving him, and now he probably guessed that Du Yue was not in his hands.That being the case, there is no need to continue pretending.

He looked at Mu Yuan, his eyes were like a fierce beast staring at its prey in the jungle: "Young Master Mu and Lord Wolf King really have a deep friendship. But tell me, do you have deeper feelings for Lord Wolf King, or does he have feelings for you?" Deeper? That's right, he is indeed not in my hands now, but he was seriously injured when he left the palace that day, and it may not be so easy to recover without spending a few months. You said that if he knew that you are currently being imprisoned Tortured in the palace, will you bear the pain all over your body and come to save you?"

"..."

Mu Yuan didn't speak, but raised his eyes to meet the emperor's eyes, his eyes were filled with overwhelming anger.

The emperor was pleased by his expression, so he stopped talking, exited the cell and ordered someone to lock the cell door.

Before leaving, he turned around and looked at Mu Yuan through the iron gate: "You are a smart man, you know that I won't take your life easily before I get the demon code, so you have the courage to talk to me like this. I don't know if Lord Wolf King can think so thoroughly."

The emperor's last words were like a heavy punch, hanging on Mu Yuan's chest, making him faintly dizzy.

Seeing the figure of the emperor gradually disappearing at the end of the cell corridor, Mu Yuan cursed secretly, and punched the wall heavily, his knuckles were instantly stained with blood.

At night, everything is silent.

Mu Yuan is now the most important prisoner in the entire palace, and the guards who are in charge of guarding him on night shift don't dare to relax for a moment. Candles are lit everywhere in the entire cell, illuminating the gloomy prison brightly.

Mu Yuan leaned against the corner of the wall, reached out to caress the wound on his upper abdomen, and frowned.

He is unable to protect himself now, and there is no way to check whether he is safe now.The emperor was right, if he really spread the news that he had been captured... it would be impossible to guarantee that he would come to the palace with all his injuries and throw himself into the trap.

Suddenly there were footsteps coming from the other end of the corridor.

Mu Yuan opened his eyes, and saw a shadow elongated by the light walking slowly towards this side.

It turned out to be Zhang Ce.

Zhang Ce stood at the door of the cell and glanced at Mu Yuan, then turned to the guard in the cell: "What are you doing with so many lights?"

The team leader was taken aback for a moment, and immediately replied respectfully: "Commander, Your Majesty said that this person is a key criminal in collusion with the monster clan, he must be strictly guarded, and he must not be allowed to escape."

"He is just a human race, and he was injured. Even if he wanted to escape from the prison, he didn't have the ability. There are too many people in the prison, and some of them will go outside to patrol. The important thing is not to look at him as an ordinary human race. It's to prevent the wolf king from coming to rob the prison!"

When the captain heard this, he answered yes again and again, and directed to the guards: "Extinguish half of the candles. You guys, stay with me in the prison, and the rest follow me out!"

"Yes!"

After a burst of noisy footsteps, the number of people guarding the cell was reduced by half.

Only then did Zhang Ce look at Mu Yuan again: "Master Mu, are you still unwilling to hand over the demon code?"

Mu Yuan just looked at him and didn't speak.

Zhang Test said: "Why do you have to struggle meaninglessly? Your Majesty has already captured you this afternoon and spread the news that you are now undergoing severe torture. If Lord Wolf King knows, I am afraid he will be impatient. He went directly to the palace to save you. Last time he joined forces with the Fox King, he was not His Majesty's opponent, and this time he was seriously injured, so even if he came, it would be a waste of effort."

Mu Yuan frowned: "If the news spreads... Du Yue will definitely know? Commander Zhang said so, but I don't understand. Since Du Yue is not the emperor's opponent and is seriously injured, why is he guarding so heavily?" Did you escape from the palace?"

"Master Mu must be very clear about how fast news can spread in the imperial city. As for Lord Wolf King...he was seriously injured, and the palace was heavily guarded that day. I really don't understand how he escaped from the palace. Go. If he does it again, he will definitely not have such good luck."

Before Mu Yuan gave up leaving, it was because Zhang Ce said that it was more likely that Du Yue was still in the palace, but now he just wanted to find Zhang Ce to confirm.

He thought for a moment, and finally nodded: "Commander Zhang's suggestion, I will seriously consider it." He looked at the remaining guards around him, and said, "Please, Commander Zhang, tell the emperor that I can't guarantee where Du Yue is now. But at least the others can be saved. Let me hand over the Demon Code, that’s fine. But I need to see Han Mu first to make sure he’s safe and sound.”

"Han Mu?" Zhang Ce frowned, looked at Mu Yuan, but finally said nothing, nodded and said, "Young Master Mu really has a lot of requests. But if you want to, I will definitely bring it to His Majesty."

"There is one more person!" Mu Yuan knew that Zhong Mai had been placed outside the palace by Zhang Test, but he suddenly made such a request, "Uncle Zhong... Zhong Mai. I still want to see him."

As soon as this remark came out, many guards in the cell looked a little ugly.

Everyone knew that the old wolf demon had already been ordered by the emperor to execute Zhang Test himself.

He also told Mu Yuan about Zhang Ce placing Zhong Mai outside the palace against the emperor's will.

Zhang Ce seemed to be suddenly irritated by Mu Yuan, so he got angry for no reason, and rushed to the prison door: "Mr. Prisoner!"

"I just want to see them. As long as I can ensure that they are safe and sound, I will hand over the demon tome. This request is not too much. Why is Commander Zhang so angry?"

"Not too much?" Zhang Ce sneered, and ordered to the guard behind him: "Come here! Open the prison door! I will ask Mr. Mu to recognize his identity!"

"This..." The guard was troubled, and whispered behind Zhang Ce: "Commander Zhang, this man looks sick, I'm afraid he can't stand the punishment... If something happens, we can't afford it." ah!"

"Am I such a disrespectful person!" Zhang Ce was suddenly furious, and shouted at the guard.

The guard was quite aggrieved: "This... This is His Majesty's explanation..."

"That's all!" Zhang Ce waved his hand: "Go away!"

The guard rolled to the corner of the cell in a hurry, and continued to stare at this side dutifully, for fear that Zhang Test's impulsiveness would cause them to suffer.

Naturally, they all knew that what Mu Yuan proposed was an impossible condition, and no one knew how Zhang Ce would deal with Mu Yuan.

Seeing that Zhang Ce didn't intend to deal with Mu Yuan, he directly chose the simplest and rude Fang Shi, reached through the iron fence, grabbed Mu Yuan by the collar, and pulled towards him.

Mu Yuan was sitting very close to the cell door, and with such a pull, he turned upside down and leaned against the cell door.

"Now we are holding your handle! Don't take me as a messenger!" Zhang Ce roared loudly. After saying this, he suddenly whispered and quickly said: "Master Wolf King hasn't shown up yet. He is very worried now." It's safe, you can rest assured."

When Mu Yuan heard the words, he was taken aback for a moment, and Zhang Ce quickly explained the whole thing to Mu Yuan clearly.

Mu Yuan met Zhang Ce's eyes and immediately reacted: "Commander Zhang, it's the emperor, not you, who holds my handle. Don't forget, he doesn't want anything to happen to me now!"

After finishing speaking, he hurriedly whispered: "Thank you."

Zhang Ce snorted coldly, continued to curse a few words, and then asked in a low voice, "Is there anything I can do to help?"

Since obtaining the Fox King Demon Pill, the emperor's behavior has become more and more insane.Seeing it in Zhang Ce's eyes, he can naturally tell right from wrong.He can't change much, but at least he can not help the evildoers.

When Mu Yuan refused to leave that day, Zhang Ce made a promise that as long as Mu Yuan needed it, he would do his best to help Mu Yuan.

Mu Yuan then nodded: "There is indeed something that Commander Zhang can help with."

After Zhang Ce left, Mu Yuan continued to lean against the wall and closed his eyes.

Although he knew that there were too many flaws in this plan, if he was not careful, it would be full of blame, and although he knew that Zhang Test was a good person, and he didn't want Zhang Test to be implicated for nothing for his own affairs, but he couldn't wait any longer.

Du Yue didn't know when he would fall into the trap set by the emperor, he couldn't wait.

"You went to the prison last night? Did you tell him everything I told you before?" The emperor raised his head from among the ancient books and looked at Zhang Ce, who was kneeling respectfully in front of him.

"Yes, everything is within His Majesty's expectations."

"Did he trust you?"

"Your Majesty knew that Mu Yuan was worried about the safety of the old wolf demon, so he first asked the minister to pretend to let him escape, and then let the minister use the old wolf demon as a bait to lure Mu Yuan into the game. Mu Yuan saw that the minister was willing to risk his life to help him leave one after another. And to protect the old wolf demon, he naturally has no doubts about the minister, and entrusted him with all the plans, and asked him to help him escape. With His Majesty personally planning, how can such a villain be His Majesty's opponent."

The emperor finally put down those ancient books that recorded various forbidden techniques: "In your opinion, will Du Yue appear this time?"

Zhang Test's answer was sonorous and powerful: "Your Majesty is so wise, he must be able to successfully lure the wolf demon to appear this time, take them both down, and get the demon code and demon pill."
