On the way back to the inn, Lu Qianyuan told Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan about Lu Zhiqian's situation. Su Jinyue had said she was tired before, and he didn't dare to waste her time to rest. Su Jinyue was no longer the same person she used to be, and he didn't dare to offend her.
"What does it have to do with me?" Su Jinyue raised a sneer. She wouldn't even give a second glance to someone she didn't care about, even if they were dead. Furthermore, Liu Chengfeng had captured them precisely because he wanted to deal with her. She didn't have the noble virtue of repaying evil with kindness.
Lu Qianyuan pulled the corner of his mouth bitterly, "I know what Zhixi did was wrong, but she is my sister, I can't just ignore her. Master Su Xiandan, just one word from you and Liu Chengfeng will let her go. Please do me this favor, please!" He couldn't lose Zhixi, she was his only relative in the world.
"Give me a reason to help her." Su Jinyue said indifferently.
Lu Qianyuan was silent. He really couldn't find any reason for Su Jinyue to help Zhiqian. If Zhiqian hadn't gone to Liu Chengfeng to deal with Su Jinyue, she wouldn't have been captured by Liu Chengfeng. Ultimately, it was her own fault. But she was his sister. Even if he knew it was her fault, could he just ignore her?
Looking at the backs of Su Jinyue and her group leaving, Lu Qianyuan sighed deeply. Su Jinyue had clearly rejected him, so it seemed that he had no choice but to find another way.
Upon returning to the inn, the innkeeper immediately greeted him warmly, "Master Su! Young City Lord Liu is waiting for you." Although he hadn't attended the competition, he had heard that Su Jinyue was a ninth-level immortality master. He hadn't expected his inn to have such a master staying there. If he used this as a promotional gimmick, business would surely continue to boom.
Su Jinyue nodded faintly. When Lu Qianyuan mentioned Lu Zhiqian's situation, she knew Liu Chengfeng would come looking for her. Liu Chengfeng had captured Lu Zhiqian to curry favor with her, but she didn't want to have anything to do with someone like Liu Chengfeng.
"Master Su Xiandan! Please forgive me for disturbing you!" Liu Chengfeng walked up to Su Jinyue with a smile and bowed.
"What does Young City Lord Liu want to see me about?" Su Jinyue didn't want to talk much with Liu Chengfeng and asked directly.
Liu Chengfeng laughed, "I've already booked a private room, why don't we go there and talk."
"I'm a little tired after just participating in the competition. Young City Lord Liu, please be frank." Su Jinyue said in a calm voice.
A trace of anger flashed in Liu Chengfeng's eyes, but the current Su Jinyue was not someone he could afford to offend. "Look, I have someone here. She wanted me to deal with you before, but you said, how could I possibly deal with you? So I captured her. I came to see Master Su Xiandan to ask him how to deal with that person."
"Let her go." Su Jinyue said, ignoring Liu Chengfeng as she and Zhan Yihan walked towards their room. She could only do so much to help Lu Qianyuan. As for whether Liu Chengfeng would release Lu Zhiqian, it had nothing to do with her.
Liu Chengfeng gritted his teeth and turned to leave the inn with his men. He hadn't expected Su Jinyue to be such an unpredictable person, but since Su Jinyue had already said she was tired, he couldn't stop her from going back to rest.
Lu Qianyuan was wandering at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion. When he saw Liu Chengfeng's beast cart coming, he hurriedly went to greet him, "Young City Lord Liu, please let my sister go." Now he could only beg Liu Chengfeng.
Liu Chengfeng lifted the car curtain and looked at Lu Qianyuan, "You can let her go, but you have to stay in the City Lord's Mansion for three years and make pills for the City Lord's Mansion free of charge. If you agree, I will let her go, otherwise I will spread the news that she offended Master Su Xiandan." Although their alchemy skills were not high, they were at least fifth and sixth level immortal pill masters.
A bitter look appeared on Lu Qianyuan's face, "Okay! I agree!" Now he could only make this choice.
