When Feng Cantian was mentioned, fear flashed across Duke Yuanzuo's eyes even after a year.
But very quickly, this trace of fear disappeared without a trace.
Right now, Tianxing Duke wasn't the only one chasing after Feng Cantian.
His big brother, Duke Jin's Crown Prince, had also left the mountain and set up a trap to kill Feng Cantian.
Feng Cantian was heavily injured and couldn't escape from Dajin Immortal Country. Once he was exposed, he would die for sure.
"He didn't escape," Feng Ziyi said coldly.
Feng Ziyi said coldly, "He broke free from the Ten Extreme Prison, killed ten true immortals, destroyed the city, and left openly!"
"Hehe."
Duke Yuanzuo smiled and shrugged. "It doesn't matter. The ending will be the same."
"Oh right, you might not know, but my big brother, Duke Anshi, left the mountain because of this. He even found Feng Cantian and injured him. Although Feng Cantian escaped again, he won't be able to hold on for long. "
Feng Ziyi shuddered when she heard the name "An World King." Her eyes were filled with endless resentment.
Even with her temperament, she couldn't control her emotions after hearing this name. She lost her cool and said word by word, "Duke Jin's Crown Prince!"
Tang Ziyi clenched her teeth as if she wanted to tear Duke Jin's Crown Prince apart.
"Oh!"
Duke Yuanzuo slapped his forehead and said, "Look at my memory. I forgot that my big brother killed your parents. I'm so sorry."
Duke Yuanzuo was apologizing, but his eyes were full of smiles.
The more Tang Ziyi lost her composure, the more he felt accomplished.
"Sigh, it's not my big brother's fault."
Duke Yuan Zuo shook his head slightly and sighed, "Feng Can Tian was suppressed, you sinners should have just stayed put, but you just had to establish an assassin organization called 'Can Ye' to assassinate people of the royal family. Aren't you just seeking your own death?"
Feng Ziyi clenched her fists and tried to suppress the anger in her heart.
She knew that Duke Yuanzuo was purposely infuriating her.
Feng Ziyi's nails had already pierced her palms and blood was dripping, but she wasn't afraid at all.
Duke Yuanzuo continued, "Don't be angry. Back then, my big brother was only in the True Immortal Stage, the same stage as your father. The two of them had a fair fight. Your father's battle prowess was not up to par and he died. That's nothing. "
"Nonsense!"
Feng Ziyi yelled, "Back then, my mother was captured by your trap. It was Prince Jin who used my mother to force my father to fight him!"
"So what? At least in this battle, my big brother won fair and square. If he wants to kill your father, with my big brother's status as the heir, he doesn't need to do it himself! "
Commandery Prince Yuanzuo sneered.
"Fair and square? Open and aboveboard … "
Feng Ziyi thought of something and stared at Duke Yuanzuo with bloodshot eyes. She was so angry that her body was shaking.
If Su Zimo saw this, he would definitely be shocked.
He thought that Feng Ziyi wouldn't reveal such emotions no matter how big of a problem she was facing.
Feng Ziyi suddenly closed her eyes and stopped looking at Duke Yuanzuo.
After a while, she calmed down.
When she opened her eyes again, there were no longer any ripples in them, and her expression was calm.
Duke Yuanzuo's eyes flashed with regret.
He thought that Feng Ziyi couldn't control herself and was about to attack him.
He didn't expect Feng Ziyi to regain her composure with her strong willpower.
Duke Yuanzuo wasn't in a hurry and continued, "Anyway, I didn't notice you at first, but after Feng Cantian escaped, I realized that someone must have helped him!"
"I know the layout of the Ten Extreme Prison better than anyone else. Without outside help, Feng Cantian wouldn't have been able to escape.
I'll ask my men to investigate your identity again. Hmm … no matter how real your identity is, as long as we investigate carefully, we will find out. "
Feng Ziyi understood.
Duke Yuanzuo thought that she had helped Feng Cantian escape from the Ten Extreme Prison.
In reality, she had this plan, but it failed.
Even she was confused. She didn't know how Feng Can Tian got out of the Ten Extremities Prison and what happened in the Ten Extremities Prison.
Of course, since Duke Yuanzuo mistook her for someone else, she wouldn't explain.
Duke Yuanzuo smiled, "You hid it very well and were very careful. Unfortunately, I still saw through it. Tsk tsk."
It was a coincidence that Feng Ziyi's identity was exposed.
If Feng Cantian didn't escape, she wouldn't have caught Duke Yuanzuo's attention.
"Since you already found out my identity, why didn't you kill me?"
Feng Ziyi asked.
Duke Yuanzuo smiled, "If I kept you alive, you could enter the Imperial Tomb and be of use to me. Why would I be in a rush to kill you?
You're a bird in a cage. You'll never be able to escape from my grasp. "
Feng Ziyi fell silent.
She had to admit that she had underestimated Duke Yuanzuo.
This person had already seen through her identity, but he didn't reveal any flaws and didn't alert her.
On the surface, this person was addicted to wine and women, but he was actually very shrewd. He had everything under control.
Just from the fact that he didn't run away from Juelei City when Feng Cantian caused a ruckus, one could see how brave he was.
Prince Jin had many children, but not all of them were given the title of Prince of a county. Most of them only had a title.
From this, one could see how extraordinary Duke Yuanzuo was.
Feng Ziyi couldn't be blamed.
Although Duke Yuanzuo's cultivation was at Earth Yuan Realm, he wasn't outstanding among all the other Dukes.
On top of that, Duke Yuanzuo was known as a spoiled brat, so Feng Ziyi naturally looked down on him.
"I've chatted with you for so long. The Imperial Tomb Curse in your body should be mostly removed, right?"
Duke Yuanzuo looked at Feng Ziyi with a half-smile, as if he knew all of her thoughts and actions like the back of his hand.
In fact, he was right.
Feng Ziyi asked Duke Yuanzuo for so long because she wanted to stall for time.
She was only at Arcane Yuan Realm, so the curse wasn't much of a threat.
She used the Void Lightning Manual, and the lightning bone produced the power of lightning, quickly removing the Imperial Tomb Curse from her body.
Of course, she wasn't just stalling for time to remove the curse.
She wanted to break through to Earth Yuan Realm in one go.
Feng Ziyi could have broken through to Earth Yuan Realm a long time ago.
She only suppressed her cultivation because she wanted to enter the Ten Extreme Prison and see Feng Cantian.
Later, when Feng Cantian escaped and entered the Imperial Tomb, she didn't have the chance to break through.
If she broke through in the Imperial Tomb with the curse, she would be courting death.
Now that she had returned to the Duke Manor and removed the Imperial Tomb Curse, Feng Ziyi had cleared all the obstacles in her body. The essence qi in her body surged and charged towards the barrier of Earth Yuan Realm.
