As Qiuju saw the disciples of the Punishment Hall walking in from the door, she felt uneasy, sensing that something was about to happen.

The elders and disciples of the Punishment Hall never attend Ming Cult meetings, and may not even know Xiao Feng's identity.

Right now, Qiu Bai is distorting the truth, leaving these people confused.

A moment later, the elder of the Punishment Hall came to Xiao Feng, his face extremely grim: "Come with me."

Just as he was about to unleash his spiritual power, Qiuju's voice came from behind: "Wait a minute."

These two people had been following Su Xueqing around, so they could be considered Su Xueqing's people.

The elder of the Punishment Hall frowned slightly upon seeing the two of them there: "Why are you two here?"

Qiuju bowed slightly to the group: "This is someone favored by Miss. If you were to arrest her, I'm afraid..."

She didn't reveal what happened next, only hoping that the elders of the Punishment Hall could figure it out themselves.

"Xiao Feng?"

The elder of the Punishment Hall looked Xiao Feng up and down and casually said his name.

As he listened to the words of the elder of the Punishment Hall, he nodded slightly: "This junior greets the elder."

"Truly, heroes emerge from among the young; even Qiu Bai, who is at the Nascent Soul stage, can be defeated."

Behind them, the disciples of the Punishment Hall, seeing that their elders were quite polite to Xiao Feng, dared not say anything more.

"This whole thing was a misunderstanding; we became friends after a fight."

I've never seen Xiao Feng's face before, but now I have the chance to take a good look.

After these people left, Xiao Feng realized that Su Mu was actually serious.

To be able to make them leave with just a title—that's quite an impressive feat.

Qiu Ju and Chun Tao watched the people from the punishment hall leave, then came to Qiu Bai's side: "You openly made a fuss, we need to take you to Su Xueqing."

Qiu Bai didn't care about their identities and snorted coldly, "This time, we admit defeat."

Seeing that they were about to leave, Xiao Feng came to the two of them and deliberately asked them to stay.

"I wonder if I could talk to him? I promise nothing will happen."

When Qiu Ju and Chun Tao learned that Xiao Feng wanted to stay by Qiu Bai's side, they exchanged a glance and didn't react for a long time.

If Qiu Bai finds an opportunity to make a move later, then they, as guards, will be deemed incompetent.

Seeing that the two disagreed, Xiao Feng couldn't help but tease them: "If I were to die, I'm afraid I would have died at his hands long ago."

With Qiu Bai's strength, he was no match for Xiao Feng, and there was no need for Chun Tao and Qiu Ju to accompany him.

Having said all that, Chuntao and Qiuju clearly had no objections and could only let the two of them walk aside.

Qiu Bai looked at his indifferent expression and spoke with obvious impatience.

"Kill me or torture me, it's up to you."

He knew he had no way out but to see if he could die a quick and painless death.

Seeing Qiu Bai in this state, Xiao Feng walked to his side and untied the ropes binding him.

Without the restraint of ropes, there is always an opportunity to retaliate.

Just as he was about to make a move, Xiao Feng's voice gradually entered his ears: "I only have one question to ask you: Do you like Su Xueqing?"

Qiu Bai nodded slightly, his face full of hope: "Of course, I would even be willing to give my life for her."

She looked at Xiao Feng again and snorted coldly: "I did consider that she should marry someone of equal social standing, but I never thought she would choose someone from the lower realm."

To put it bluntly, he looks down on people from the bottom of his heart.

Now that Qiu Bai had made his feelings for Su Xueqing clear, Xiao Feng slowly walked to the side and lowered his voice.

"I need to tell you something: I have never liked Su Xueqing."

Upon hearing this, Qiu Bai's newly acquired spiritual power was extinguished.

"What did you say? You've never liked Su Xueqing?"

"Indeed, you should know how I came to the Upper Realm, right?"

Only Xiao Feng knew about the affairs of the Palace of Bliss; no one else knew anything about them.

Seeing that Qiu Bai had already set off, Xiao Feng walked up to him and said, "Do me a favor, and Su Xueqing's future will be yours."

When he heard Xiao Feng say that, the fire in his heart that had been extinguished was rekindled.

"Tell me, if there's anything I can do to help you, I'll do it without hesitation."

Seeing Qiu Bai's serious expression, Xiao Feng took a deep breath: "I need to leave the Ming Cult. I wonder if you have any way to help me?"

"Leave the Ming Cult?"

Despite possessing such strength, he was constantly thinking about how to leave the Ming Cult.

This person clearly has no ulterior motives towards Su Xueqing; in fact, he is Su Xueqing's most loyal subordinate.

Seeing that Qiu Bai already knew about this, Xiao Feng nodded seriously: "Well? If you can help me leave, Su Xueqing will be all alone."

The two of them were actually on the same side, and Qiu Bai didn't know whether he should agree to it.

He turned around to look at Qiuju and Chuntao, and came to them: "Please wait for me outside, I will come out to find you."

Seeing that the two didn't seem to be fighting, Qiuju and Chuntao naturally felt relieved.

When Xiao Feng returned to Qiu Bai's side, his eyes were filled with hope.

Whether or not you can leave is up to you. I'll wait for your news here.

Seeing Xiao Feng's determined expression and desire to leave, Qiu Bai sneered, "Why should I believe you?"

With Su Xueqing's help behind him, Xiao Feng didn't need to go through so much.

Upon hearing that Qiu Bai did not trust him, Xiao Feng looked helpless and said, "I have many friends who are imprisoned here."

The reason for leaving the Ming Cult was to bring all those people with him, which was a perfect excuse.

Qiu Bai looked up at the surrounding array and tried to keep his voice down: "I'll take you to a place where the array can't protect you."

Since no one was following him, naturally no one knew his location.

Even someone as strong as Su Mu and Su Xueqing would have no choice but to stay put if they lost their positions.

Qiu Bai led the way, while Xiao Feng observed the surroundings from behind.

Later on, there will definitely be no one else to help him; he will have to help himself all by himself.

Qiu Bai drew a circle on the ground with his foot: "This is a place that even the great formation cannot protect. You need to remember this location."

Xiao Feng looked down at his feet, quietly closed his eyes, and kept replaying the scene of his arrival in his mind.

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Qiu Bai's voice gradually came over.

"This should be the busiest time at Jubaolou. We need to find a time to leave."

If someone discovers that the two of them have left, it won't be long before Su Mu and Su Xueqing are found out.

Xiao Feng listened to Qiu Bai's self-talk and waited for him to give him a time.

A moment later, Qiu Bai came to his side, his face serious: "We'll meet at 5 a.m. tomorrow, so come here."
