When Qin Luo and Wang Yue brought over the soup and food, they saw the three of them with furrowed brows and worried expressions.
"What's wrong?" Wang Yue asked curiously, placing the soup on the table.
Qin Luo also put down the food and helped each person up.
"If you have an injury, do not worry, as it will be bad for the wound!"
"Yes! Let's eat something first, so the wound can heal faster! We can discuss anything after we've eaten!"
The three of them politely thanked him first, and then picked up their chopsticks and finished the meal.
After Wang Yue cleaned the table and brewed the tea, everyone gathered around to discuss.
Feng Zangce told everyone his and his guards' thoughts in detail.
The guesses given by the individuals were not just different, they were completely unrelated.
Ci Yue was the first to raise her hand and express her opinion.
"Could it be that your clan leader and the monster are in cahoots, deliberately sending it to find you so that they can kill you and prevent you from inheriting the position of clan leader?"
Feng Zangce shook his head.
"That shouldn't be the case. There are divisions among the elders. Not all of them support me. Moreover, most of them are childless. If they don't support me, an orphan, it would be tantamount to handing over the position of clan head to those elders who have sons. So your idea is invalid!"
After Ciyue's resignation was rejected, Wangyue was the second to speak.
"Could it be that a powerful elder controlled a monster to kill the other elders, and only then did he think of killing you?"
His idea was also rejected by Feng Zangce.
"No, the Feng family has an ancestral rule that they must not have any connection with demons. This is something etched in their minds since childhood, and they dare not forget it. In addition, the elders are all monitoring each other, and if any one of them suddenly acts strangely, it will definitely be discovered!"
The third person to raise their hand was Kui Duo; she seemed to have made a new discovery.
"I overheard the clan chief and the others discussing something in the clan. They said that to break the curse on us, we needed to unlock some kind of iron chain. I was too far away at the time, so I didn't hear it clearly!"
Feng Zangce looked at her curiously.
"May I ask which ethnic group you belong to, young lady? Are you also from this city?"
Upon hearing this, Kui Duo first gave Ci Yue a grateful look before answering his question.
"I am a Blood Eater. It was Sister Ciyue who helped me with the makeup so that no one could tell!"
Ci Yue was so smug upon hearing this! She held her head high and stared at the group with her nostrils flared.
"Hey, what a trivial skill, what a trivial skill! Hahahaha..."
However, no one paid any attention to her, so Feng Cangce then asked Kui Duo.
"Why are you allowed to come out in broad daylight?"
Kui Duo didn't really know why.
"I'm not really sure either, it seems like suddenly we can sunbathe!"
Feng Zangce suddenly remembered what his father had said: the blood of these three destined individuals could dissolve the cage.
If Kuiduo is one of the three, then who are the other two?
He couldn't figure it out, so he asked the question.
Then, everyone in the room fell into deep thought.
After a long pause, Qin Luo raised his hand.
"Is it possible that Wangxiang also wanted to know how to break the seal beneath the city, so he arrested your entire clan and prepared to extract a confession?"
"Wangxiang? Is that the name of that monster?"
Seeing Qin Luo and Wu Hua nod in confirmation, Feng Zangce became even more puzzled.
"Then why doesn't it capture me? I'm a young master, after all!"
Qin Luo answered his question without even thinking.
"Is it possible that it's because you, the young master, are not valued by the clan? No one pays attention to you usually, and since you've always been hidden by the elders' side, they've gradually come to look down on you?"
Feng Zangce lowered his head after hearing what she said. He was indeed not valued in the clan, otherwise he wouldn't have been relegated to watching the stall...
Seeing his dejected look, Qin Luo knew she had spoken too harshly, so she immediately tried to make amends.
"That's great! They've all been captured, but you escaped. Maybe you're the key to breaking the seal..."
As soon as she finished speaking, everyone in the room looked at her, and Ci Yue and Wu Hua even gave her a thumbs up.
"Luo Luo, you're so smart! Xiao Duo from the Blood Eater is one, and the Letter Seeker must be one too, so the last one must be a descendant of the City Lord's Mansion!"
"Yeah! Qin Luo, you're amazing! You can even make up stories that actually come true!"
Qin Luo rolled her eyes at her.
"What do you mean by making things up? I called it factual analysis!"
"Okay, okay, analysis, it's analysis..."
Feng Zangce never expected that he was one of those three. Now that he knew, he suddenly felt immense pressure, but a sense of responsibility also surged within him.
"What should we do next? I want to go back and save Feng Chi and my people..."
As he spoke, he looked at the people inside the house: some were thin, some were small, and there were the three wounded men.
Apart from Nozomi, who seems somewhat capable, the others all look like weaklings.
His voice gradually faded away...
Qin Luo and the others assumed he was grieving for his clansmen and didn't pay much attention, instead discussing countermeasures.
Finally, it was decided that Wang Yue would take Ci Yue to the City Lord's Mansion to investigate.
Qin Luo and Wu Hua went to find the messenger to check if Feng Chi and the captured men were alright.
Kudo and the Mountain Spider guarded the base camp and cared for the three wounded.
After making the decision, Feng Zangce drew a picture of his family's lair.
Qin Luo held the completed map and sighed inwardly.
"If we used this map to attack, we'd hit the target every time. It's drawn in such detail!"
Wu Hua silently stretched out her small hand, pointing to a corner of the painting, replying to her in her heart.
"It's quite detailed; they even drew the area where the toilet is located..."
Qin Luo…
She carefully put the painting away and gave everyone a few final words of advice.
"It's still early, let's all go back to our rooms and get some rest. We'll set off promptly at the end of Xu hour (9 PM)!"
"good!"
