Outside the mountain, Li Molin watched as the young Taoist priest who had gone in to deliver the message returned, and a long time passed without Liuli and the others being brought out. Worried and anxious, he immediately raised his hand and shouted in a deep voice, "Xuanjia Army, listen to my command! Attack! Wash away the Xuandao Sect in blood!"
"Yes!" The Xuanjia Army soldiers, who had been waiting impatiently, were overjoyed upon hearing Li Molin's order. They responded in unison, their voices booming.
As the armor moved, the joints of the armor made a series of neat clanging sounds as two thousand Xuanjia soldiers raised their spears, ready to attack Yuan Ling and the others.
Yuan Ling was greatly alarmed. The great war between the righteous and the demonic forces had not yet broken out. He did not want the Yuan Dao Sect to be the first to suffer from the demonic calamity and be severely weakened, thus losing the possibility of becoming the strongest sect among the righteous sects in the Central Plains and becoming the leader of the righteous sects in the Central Plains.
"Wait!" Yuan Ling said urgently, "I will immediately send my disciple to check on the sect again. Young master, please wait a little longer. Otherwise, if you attack my Yuan Dao Sect now, even I cannot guarantee the safety of your subordinates."
Li Molin was ultimately afraid that something might happen to Liuli and the others, so he raised his voice and stopped the two thousand Xuanjia soldiers, saying, "Wait a little longer!"
The two thousand Xuanjia soldiers were greatly disappointed. They put away their spears, made a fuss for a while, and then had no choice but to fall silent.
Yuan Ling turned to look at Yang Ji and whispered, "Ji'er, quickly tell Han'er to release all those people. Tell Han'er that regardless of whether the divine stone has been obtained or not, release them immediately!"
"Yes," Yang Ji replied, then turned and hurried away.
He quickly arrived at the prison, opened the stone door, and peered through the iron bars into the cell. He saw Liuli resting with her eyes closed, while Yu Xin leaned on her shoulder, her eyes half-closed and drowsy. The rest of the people were simply fast asleep, looking quite relaxed. In contrast, Liang Yihan and Liu Lingying looked furious and helpless.
This time, he dared not say anything rashly, but instead called out loudly, "Senior Brother Han!"
Liang Yihan glanced at him, then turned and walked over.
Yang Ji walked up to Liang Yihan and said in a low voice, "Senior Brother Han, the Sect Leader Uncle said that you should release these people immediately. The Sect Leader Uncle said that regardless of whether the Divine Stone has been obtained or not, you should release them immediately."
Liang Yihan's face darkened, his gloom almost dripping with water. He felt helpless, but after a long silence, he could only nod and say, "Okay, I understand."
He turned and went into the cell, sighing helplessly, "Uncle Ying, let them go."
Liu Lingying looked up at him, then looked down at Liuli, handed the ring to Liuli, and sighed, "Fox, you win. Here's the ring."
A carefree smile curved Liu Li's lips. She opened her eyes, looked at Liu Lingying, took the storage ring from her hand, and put it on. Looking down at the storage ring on her slender hand, she said calmly, "Liang Yihan, you went to great lengths, sacrificing two bottles of Thousand Poison Powder and over a hundred Detoxification Pills..."
The smile on Liuli's lips was full of sarcasm. She raised her eyes and looked at Liang Yihan with a leisurely air, and said with a sneer, "In the end, it's all for nothing. Ha, isn't that funny?"
Liang Yihan's face was full of anger, and he remained silent.
Liuli persisted, sighing softly and chuckling as she continued, "And after I appear in the Central Plains tomorrow, won't you have to go to the Buddhist sect to explain things? Sigh, that's really exhausting."
"You!" Liang Yihan roared in fury. He couldn't help but step forward and said coldly, "Fox, if you continue to be arrogant, believe me, I'll kill you!"
"Go ahead and kill me," Liuli said with a sneer, emboldened. "I won't fight back. I'll just wait for you to kill me."
Liang Yihan was filled with anger, his face dark and gloomy.
Liu Lingying looked up at Liang Yihan's face, shook her head helplessly, and said in a deep voice, "Alright, Han'er, let's talk about it after today. Release them now!"
As she spoke, she looked up and gave Liang Yihan a wink.
Liang Yihan understood, his gaze turning cold. Indeed, they would deal with it after today. After today, he would definitely not let this cunning fox go!
With a stern face, he beckoned and collected the blue ropes binding Yu Xin and Lang Yuan into his storage ring.
"Alright, let's go!" Liu Lingying stood up and said in a low voice, "Lin'er came to rescue you outside. He treats you very well. I hope you won't let him down."
Liuli paused for a moment, then lowered her eyes in deep thought. Indeed, Li Molin had treated her too well. Just now, when she guessed that someone had come to rescue her, she subconsciously assumed that it was Li Molin who had come to rescue her.
Thinking of this, Liuli frowned. Since when did Li Molin actually become her hope?
"Uncle Ying, Senior Brother Han!" Yang Ji waited anxiously outside the cell for a while, then couldn't help but urge, "Hurry up!"
"Understood," Liu Lingying replied, looking down at Liuli and saying, "Let's go quickly, fox."
Liuli looked up at Liu Lingying, smiled calmly, and said lightly, "I don't have the strength to stand up."
"Hmph!" Liang Yihan snorted, and a flash of light appeared on his storage ring. He grabbed a jade bottle that flew out of the ring and threw it in front of Liuli, saying coldly, "The antidote for the black hemp grass."
The jade bottle landed steadily with a crisp sound. Liuli looked down at the jade bottle, her face darkening. She didn't try to pick it up, and Yu Xin leaned against her without moving, her eyes darting around as she looked at Liu Lingying and Liang Yihan.
Liu Lingying waited for a while, then sighed helplessly. She squatted down, picked up the jade bottle, poured out a pill, and handed it to Liuli, saying, "Here, take this."
Liuli looked up at Liang Yihan, her expression slightly cold, and said indifferently, "I will only eat if he gives it to me respectfully."
"Fox, don't go too far!" Liang Yihan said coldly.
Liuli gave a cold laugh and silently closed her eyes.
"Han'er." Liu Lingying looked at Liuli's appearance, stood up helplessly, handed the jade bottle to Liang Yihan, and gave him a wink.
Liang Yihan's face darkened with anger, and he did not take the jade bottle.
"Han'er!" Liu Lingying said in a low voice, "Our sect leader has repeatedly sent people to urge us on. The situation outside must be critical. The most important thing is to get her to take the antidote and get them out of here as soon as possible!"
Liang Yihan's face was grim, and his gaze as he looked down at the jade bottle was unusually gloomy.
Just then, a rumbling sound came from the stone gate, and a young Taoist priest hurried in, saying as he went, "Senior Brother Han, the sect leader wants you to release the people who have been captured and brought up the mountain at once!"
He strode to the prison door, exchanged a glance with Yang Ji, then looked at Liu Lingying, greeted her, and called out, "Uncle Ying."
Liu Lingying ignored the young Taoist priest. She handed the jade bottle to Liang Yihan and frowned, saying, "Han'er, quickly give her the pills!"
Liang Yihan turned to look at Yang Ji and the young Taoist priest at the prison gate, his face full of anger, but he had no choice but to take the jade bottle, squat down next to Liuli, and pour out a pill with a gloomy expression, handing it to Liuli.
Liuli watched with a sense of satisfaction as she took the pill from Liang Yihan's face and swallowed it.
