Madam Chu walked towards the two of them and then reached out to touch the Demon-Locking Chain.
Morning Glory asked warily, "What do you want to do?"
Madam Chu said apologetically, "I wanted to let you out."
Daisy and Morning Glory looked at her with surprise, "Who are you? Are you also from this household?"
Madam Chu nodded. "Yes."
Daisy, "Then why did you rescue us?"
Madam Chu paused, then remained silent.
They continued to investigate how to unlock the demon-locking chain.
Upon seeing this, the morning glory said, "You can't open it like this; you need a key."
Madam Chu then searched for the key in the dungeon. After finding the key and unlocking the demon-locking chains, she said, "You may leave."
Little daisy, "We are demons, aren't you afraid of us?"
Madam Chu said, "You two look like young girls. Even if you are demons, you should be good demons."
The daisies and morning glories looked at the human in front of them and thought that this lady was a very nice person.
The two flower fairies took a few steps, then turned back and said, "If you release us, won't Li Yi cause you trouble?"
Madam Chu remained silent for a few seconds.
"It's okay."
Morning glory, "You seem to have something on your mind. Do you need our help?"
...
Chi Qiangwei: "If you release my two younger sisters, I might spare your life?"
Li Yi was hesitating.
She had her eye on the two flower fairies from the beginning. Her original plan was to capture them all and send the four of them to the real people.
He was sure the real person would give him more benefits, but he didn't expect that Chi Qiangwei was a monster, and her two younger sisters were also monsters.
Suddenly, the demon hunter rushed over and ambushed Chi Qiangwei.
Chi Qiangwei was stabbed in the shoulder. She hissed and quickly covered her bleeding shoulder, glaring angrily at the demon hunter in front of her.
Li Yi: "Well done!"
Just then, someone ran over and whispered in his ear, "Lord Li, those two flower fairies have escaped!"
"What?" Li Yi's expression changed.
"Who released them?"
The servant stammered, "It's...it's Madam Chu."
Li Yi immediately replied, "I'll return to the manor right away."
Just as he was about to leave, Chi Qiangwei immediately came over to stop him.
Li Yi quickly called out, "Master!"
The demon hunters behind her immediately rushed up. "Chi Qiangwei, don't think I don't know. Although you just beat me, your body is clearly exhausted. Do you still want to fight me?"
Chi Qiangwei was already injured from the battle with the cloaked man that night, and she was stabbed by the demon hunter just now, so it is indeed not advisable for her to fight him now.
Chi Qiangwei looked at Xu An.
When Xu An met her gaze, he guiltily stepped back.
She walked towards him step by step.
The demon hunter immediately blocked her path with his sword.
"You monster! You are not allowed to kill innocent people indiscriminately!"
Chi Qiangwei: "Indiscriminate killing? You, the demon hunter, are the one who indiscriminately kills innocent people."
Demon hunter, "...You!"
His eyes were fierce. "A demon is a demon. No matter how much you wear a human skin, it will never change the evil nature in your bones."
Chi Qiangwei didn't argue with him. She looked at Xu An with disappointment, "In your heart, is your illness always more important than me?"
Xu An remained silent.
But silence is the best answer.
Even knowing he had betrayed her, Chi Qiangwei still felt pain in her heart.
Wan Rou stared at him, "Xu An, is it really true, as Chi Qiangwei said, that you sold us out because of your illness?"
Xu An, "I..."
He wanted to continue deceiving the woman in front of him, but when he met Wan Rou's eyes, he lowered his gaze.
"…right."
Wan Rou's eyes immediately reddened. "Why? In your heart, are the two of us less important than that money?"
Xu An said, "Brother Li told me that as long as I am willing to give you to that so-called immortal, he will give me a secret medicine. It is no exaggeration to call that secret medicine a divine medicine. As long as I take it, I will have a healthy body."
Chi Qiangwei stared into those eyes that revealed the same despicable nature as in her past life and roared, "You actually believe that!"
Xu An was taken aback by her shout. "Why wouldn't I believe it? That's the only way to save me. Even if there's only a sliver of hope, I won't give up!"
Upon hearing this, Wan Rou immediately burst into tears. "Xu An, I never thought you were this kind of person. For some damn secret medicine, you just sold us out like this!"
She used to be jealous of Xu An and Chi Qiangwei, but now she realizes that Chi Qiangwei is just as pitiful as she is.
At this moment, Wan's mother suddenly burst in. After hearing what Xu An had said, she immediately went over and slapped him hard.
"I saw through your wicked intentions a long time ago!"
Xu An fell silent after being slapped.
"Mother." Wan Rou lowered her head when she saw her mother coming.
Wan's mother pulled her daughter close, saying, "Xu An, you deserve to die alone!"
"No, you should have died sooner!"
Then she said to her daughter, "Xiaorou, let's go. We won't come here again. I've chosen a perfect husband for you, a million times better than this Xu An."
After saying that, Wan Rou was pulled away by her mother.
Chi Qiangwei wanted to step forward, but the demon hunter stopped her.
Seeing this, Chi Qiangwei had no choice but to leave.
...
Xu An has been hearing very unpleasant things about himself these past few days.
Rumors are circulating that Xu An is a beast.
To cure his illness, he sold the two young girls who were taking care of him to a brothel.
The people of Shicheng looked on incredulously when they heard this.
Is this for real?
"Of course it's true. That day, the mistress of the Wan family started cursing in the street. If her daughter hadn't run away quickly, an innocent girl would have been ruined."
"That Xu An is a monster."
Inside the room, Xu An lay on the bed. Because no one was taking care of him, he hadn't gotten up all day. His lips were dry. He wanted to drink water, but he couldn't reach the teapot on the table.
Just then, the door creaked open.
The waiter came out from outside, and his gaze toward Xu An was filled with disdain.
He threw the food from the plate onto the table and then turned to leave.
Xu An immediately called out to him, "Could you... bring me the food and water?"
The waiter glanced at him and said arrogantly, "I've already put the dishes here. You can carry the rest yourself."
Xu An hesitated to retract his outstretched hand, and couldn't help but curse, "If you treat me like this, Brother Li will definitely kick you out when he comes."
However, the waiter didn't hear what he said and had already left.
At night, Xu An lay in bed unattended.
He was so thirsty that he reached out to grab the teacup that was right in front of him.
Suddenly, with a "crash," the teacup on the table fell to the ground.
He himself fell off the bed, his arm scraping against a shard of teacup on the floor, and his arm was immediately cut and bleeding.
