A powerful force burst out from Gu Chunuan's body, knocking Mr. Ning away.
"puff……"
Mr. Ning vomited blood again. He was exhaling more and less inhaling. He was so weak that he could hardly breathe.
Regardless of the sudden increase to the fifth level, Gu Chunuan staggered to help Mr. Ning up.
"Old man..."
"It's good to have risen two levels... so... my skills are still somewhat useful."
"Why should you?"
"You are my granddaughter-in-law. If I am not good to you, I will be good to no one."
"If you have any other wishes, tell them all. As long as I can do it, I will satisfy you."
"No...no more. What I worry about the most is You'er and the Ning family. Ning...the Ning family..."
Before Mr. Ning finished speaking, his heartbeat had already stopped.
He was hurt too badly.
He then passed on all his skills to Gu Chunuan without reservation, and had been holding on for the last breath.
Now that he can no longer survive, he will naturally pass away.
Gu Chunuan felt a sudden pain in her heart. She hugged Mr. Ning tightly and held back her tears to prevent them from falling.
Various scenes from the past appeared in her mind.
Mr. Ning took great care of her and wanted her to become his granddaughter-in-law.
Mr. Ning saved her from danger many times.
Mr. Ning would rather offend everyone in the world than protect her.
Tonight, in order to prevent the fake empress from discovering her, she would rather give up her own life.
He didn't have to die.
The Ning family's unique skill can isolate the breath.
But he still stood up first.
Gu Chunuan put him on the floor, knelt down and kowtowed three times.
"Old man, don't worry. As long as I live, nothing will happen to Ning Tianyou. I will try my best to protect the Ning family, and I will avenge you."
"The secret passage is too complicated. I have completely lost my way. I can only force you to rest here for now. I will restrain you after I kill the impostor."
Even though he was reluctant to give up, Gu Chunuan could only find a hidden secret room to temporarily place Mr. Ning while he looked for a way out in the underground palace.
The rumble of the stone gate in the distance has disappeared.
I don’t know if the fake empress knew it couldn’t be broken and gave up.
Gu Chunuan was very anxious.
It took too long to come out on my own.
It is no longer wise to go back to Jiange.
If she doesn't go back, will Ye Jinghan be in danger? Can she handle it?
Thinking of Ye Jinghan's superb martial arts, Gu Chunuan couldn't help but worry for him.
The fake empress married him just because she liked his martial arts and wanted to use him for herself.
Walking and walking, Gu Chunuan didn't know how long she had been walking. She only knew that her clothes had been soaked with hot sweat.
It wasn't like she hadn't thought about retracing her steps and finding her original entrance.
But if you take that path, you must open the stone door that traps the false empress.
By then...
It was inevitable that he would run into her again.
Gu Chunuan continued to move forward.
When she was almost exhausted from walking, she finally noticed a ray of breeze.
She was overjoyed and hurriedly ran in the direction of the wind.
The mechanisms are broken down layer by layer, and the dangerous roads filled with dangers are walked one by one.
Gu Chunuan finally found the exit.
Pushing open the top cover, she poked her head out and saw that she was on a large mountain.
Gu Chunuan got up and covered the top with her backhand.
Looking around, there are high mountains and ridges, no human habitation, and extremely dense trees. It should be outside the palace, and I don't know how the secret passage leads here.
Gu Chunuan found the right direction and ran towards the imperial capital.
By the time she arrived at the Imperial Capital, it was already late at night.
Portraits of her arrest were posted everywhere in the imperial capital.
