The voice sounded old, like an old man. If Lu JinNian hadn't seen the boy's lips, he would not have been able to confirm that the voice was coming from him.

Lu JinNian was surprised for a moment, then clasped his hands at the boy, ”Thank you.”

He then walked towards the location indicated by the boy.

She knew that the boy couldn't see her movements, but she didn't skip it. Was it because she didn't have the guilt of directly saving him right now? Or was it due to his lack of tolerance and respect for life?

Xiao Su kept her eyes on her. When she saw something cruel, she did not go up to comfort him, nor did she say anything silly about living well. She would be better off in the future.

While Xiao Su was deep in thought, Lu JinNian had already found the place mentioned by the boy. It was also a room that was beautifully decorated, but the bed sheets were obviously new. Du Lang was lying on the bed, looking fine except for his pale face, which was unconscious.

With the nail in hand, the lock was opened with a 'kacha' sound. Lu JinNian walked in and carried Du Lang out. With just a glance, he directed his lightness towards the entrance of the secret passage.

Xiao Su followed closely behind. After both of them came out, she restored the floor tiles at the entrance and left the palace.

The secret passage was actually very long, and Princess Rong Qing wasn't in the secret passage either. As for where the secret passage to the Luan Palace would lead to, Lu Jinsheng had already made a rough guess, but tonight's goal was only to find Du Lang. He took a deep breath and told himself to take one step at a time.

”I thought you were going to save him.” He was talking about the boy.

Hearing Xiao Su's words, Lu JinNian looked up at him with a faint smile, but it somehow gave off a chilling feeling, ”I do want to save him.”

”He is determined to die. You should be able to see what happened to him. My idea of saving him is to give him a quick death. Perhaps he will feel grateful and not drag it out for another two or three days.”

”Lord Demon Lord did not act to give him a quick death when he was in the dark tunnel. I guess he did not come here just to humiliate me, I was just a bit selfish,” Lu JinNian pretended to be light, ”Whether or not I can save him, how I save him, is my problem. What I choose next, it's his problem. If he still seeks death wholeheartedly in three days, I won't stop him.”

Judging from the situation in the secret passage, the boy that Princess Rong Qing was playing with was not the only boy. The boy that was drowned in the lotus pond during the day was most likely one of them.

The reason why she could bring Du Lang out was because Du Lang had a special identity. He was also a new missing child, and the results of the examination for his corpse had yet to come out. As long as she was suspicious of the situation, Princess Yi Rong Qing would not act rashly, but the situation for the boy and the child before Du Lang was different.

If he wanted to save someone, he had to save that person thoroughly. If he wanted to do it, he had to eliminate the root of the problem!

It doesn't matter even if you want to die. I don't know what that child saw before, nor do I know if he will continue to suffer even after I save him, but, ”Lu Jinsheng paused for a moment, looking at the white sky in the east,” Surviving is better, or death.

Looking at her, the answer surfaced in her heart. She couldn't help but rub her head, and Lu Jinniang frowned as he looked at her, but he didn't seem to care, and instead pointed to Du Lang who was in her arms, ”This child, where do you plan to put him? There is no place in the Imperial Palace where there can be absolute safety and cover up for others' eyes and ears. ”

”Lord Demon Lord?”

”Eh?”
