Chapter 849: Punishment 2
Seeing Qiu Yu's confident demeanor, Li Yu was somewhat skeptical, but he had no other choice but to believe him now.
Li Yu had no choice but to get up and immediately start packing his things.
Inside the palace, Li Yuan sat on the bed, wearing a black outer robe, staring expressionlessly at the Qiu Yu Ancestor, his deep purple eyes revealing no emotion.
Seeing the expression on his face, Qiu Yu Ancestor realized that he had overheard everything Qiu Yu had said to Li Yu.
"What? Am I wrong?" Qiu Yu, the progenitor, smiled elegantly and innocently.
"Qiu Yu." The handsome man's voice was deep and dangerous. "I dislike those who act on their own initiative and try to be clever."
Ancestor Qiu Yu walked slowly to him, chuckling confidently, "So you want to kill me? If I die, you probably won't find another alchemist in the world who can refine the Nine-Turn Ice Jade Pill for you."
Li Yuan's expression was icy: "Jiang Bai must be punished. It is an indisputable fact that he went to hunt her down without my orders."
His anger stemmed not only from Bai's unauthorized pursuit and killing of Fei'er, but also from his distrust of Fei'er.
Qiu Yu, the progenitor, sighed and advised, "Jiang Bai is indeed at fault, and you can punish him, but not now."
He could understand why Li Yuan wanted to severely punish Jiang Bai.
Having been by Li Yuan's side for so long, Ye Fei's character and temperament are well known to Jiang Bai and Li Yu, who are her attendants.
But this pursuit was like a slap in the face to Li Yuan.
Li Yuan closed his eyes and stopped speaking. Qiu Yu Ancestor continued, "Do you really think Li Yu can handle the Deep Sea Emperor Flood Dragon? He and Jiang Bai have fought side by side for so long, they know each other inside and out, and their level of understanding is beyond question."
"Why get angry and separate them when you can solve things together? Besides, the sooner you cure your inflammation, the sooner you can go to see your emperor and empress, right?"
Li Yuan slowly opened his eyes, his gaze as sharp as ice: "What kind of curse did they cast on you that you would speak up for them like this?"
When Qiu Yu Ancestor noticed that Li Yuan's tone was not as sharp as before, he knew that he had succeeded in persuading him. He smiled innocently and said, "I didn't speak for them. I was just considering your current situation from an outsider's perspective."
After a moment of silence, Li Yuan finally agreed to temporarily suspend the severe punishment imposed on Jiang Bai.
However, after obtaining the Deep Sea Emperor Dragon Beast Pill, Bai still needs to go to the Valley of the Dead.
Ancestor Qiuyu knew this was the best possible outcome and stopped trying to persuade him.
When Li Yu learned that Li Yuan had withdrawn the punishment for Jiang Bai, he breathed a heavy sigh of relief and immediately went to the Valley of the Dead to bring Jiang Bai out.
Fortunately, when Jiang Bai was found, he did not have any particularly serious injuries, only some minor wounds.

The next day, just as dawn broke, Jiang Bai and Li Yu set off for the Northern Continent of the human realm.
On the other side, Ye Fei sat on Bi Yun's lap and briefly told Liu Yan about her situation.
After listening, Liu Yan raised her little paw and touched Ye Fei's hand, whispering, "Master, you've worked hard."
Ye Fei was slightly taken aback, then she grabbed a handful of Liu Yan's fluffy head: "Speaking of which, Liu Yan, you are a sacred beast, so you should be able to transform into human form like Ling, right?"
Liu Yan nodded, thought for a moment, and then said, "If Master wants to see, I can transform into human form."
"However, I can transform into either a male or a female. Which one would you like to see, Master?"
