Qi Yu breathed a sigh of relief.
The mid-level demon was indeed cunning; she clearly saw Lai Pi turn into black mist and try to escape, but he was captured and put into the Demon-Subduing Disc.
Lai Pi had somehow managed to slip away unnoticed, even coming to her room and leaving behind this provocative note.
No wonder he was able to escape from Qiankun Fort's imprisonment and even flee from Qiankun Fort's overwhelming search.

Didn't Wu Qianqian know that the mid-level demon she caught yesterday was a fake, and that the real mid-level demon had already escaped?
Or perhaps, after Lai Pi escaped, the people of Qiankun Fort immediately captured it again?
