"Ge Yiyuan, let him go." Liuli looked up at Ge Yiyuan and said calmly.

"Yes." Ge Yiyuan nodded in response and waved his hand to remove the ropes binding Yuan Huafu.

Yuan Huafu, now free, stretched his stiff body and hesitantly summoned a spirit crane. The azure crane flew above his palm. He glanced at Liuli, then moved his hand to his face, leaning closer to the crane as if to whisper something.

"Speak up!" Liu Li shouted coldly, her voice chilling. "I will only release you after I see Yu Xing. If you ruin my plans, I will not let you off!"

Yuan Huafu shuddered and quickly moved the crane away. He said loudly, "Senior Brother Yu, please come to the Cloud Platform at 5 PM three days from now. I have something to tell you, something that will be enough for you to bring down Senior Brother Han!"

Having said that, he joined his right index and middle fingers together and waved out a complex cyan talisman that flew to the crane's body and disappeared.

Liuli couldn't understand the meaning of the last talisman he drew. She looked at Yuan Huafu's actions with suspicion and said in a cold voice, "Don't try anything funny, or I'll make you wish you were dead!"

Yuan Huafu's face turned pale, and he quickly explained, "This talisman was given to Linghe specifically to find Senior Brother Yu; it has no other meaning."

“Okay.” Liuli looked up at Ge Yiyuan and said, “Ge Yiyuan, take him to release the spirit crane, then lock him up. I will decide whether to release him after I see Yu Xing.”

Ge Yiyuan nodded in agreement, reached out and grabbed Yuan Huafu's arm, pulled him up, and shoved him out.

Liuli picked up her teacup and took a sip of the cold tea. She looked down at the two tea leaves floating on the surface of the water, her eyes filled with deep thought.
