Yang Lei breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the members of the Demonic Cult appear.
Approaching Chen Siyuan, he spoke softly, "Young Madam."
Chen Siyuan nodded, then looked at Wen Kai with a big smile, "Big Cousin."
"Cousin, go do what you want to do. I'll take care of things here."
"Okay." That's what Chen Siyuan was waiting for.
Yang Lei acted quickly, grabbing Li Ze and heading straight for Li Huarong's bedroom.
Li Ze had originally thought that since they didn't know the secret, he wouldn't die as long as they kept it a secret.
He was dumbfounded by the scene before him.
“Li Ze, I’ll say it again: it’s not too late to turn back now. You probably don’t want to end up like your father.”
"I'm going to kill you!" Li Ze, who was being dragged away, was also enraged.
Chen Siyuan, however, was not afraid.
He looked at Li Ze with amusement, "You and your father are different. You are still alive, and you can have a different life. Besides, you are also a member of the Li family. Your grandfather has not given up on you until now."
Li Ze stopped struggling and looked at Chen Siyuan.
"I have no reason to lie to you, otherwise I would have shot you long ago, why would I let you live until now?"
Are you telling the truth?
"That depends on what you do." Chen Siyuan didn't have much time, but if someone was willing to change, she was willing to give them a chance.
"Since you know I am the young mistress, you should also know that I am a businesswoman. You know very well what a businessman values most."
"I told you, we are all the same kind of people."
"Now that things have come to this point, I'm asking you to speak up so that you have a chance to redeem yourself. If you don't want it, I won't force you."
As Chen Siyuan spoke, she headed toward the bookshelves at the back of the study.
Li Ze, who was still struggling, now believed it completely.
Because there are some things he knows better than anyone else.
This was a secret between myself and my father; no one else knew it except for us.
Chen Siyuan came to this bookshelf, clearly knowing what was going on.
“I said.”
Chen Siyuan tried hard to control the excitement in her heart, but her face remained calm, and a smile appeared on her lips.
"Come here." Yang Lei knew what Chen Siyuan meant, and dragged Li Ze over.
"I...I've never been inside." Li Ze began to back down.
"I'll give you a chance."
Li Ze gritted his teeth, thinking of what his father had said. He couldn't stand on his own two legs, so he could only hold onto the side and try to steady himself. He slowly pushed a book next to him.
Chen Siyuan, Yang Lei, and others remained highly vigilant.
As the person slowly opened the door, Chen Siyuan was eager to see Qiao Yuchen, but before she could make that move, Yang Lei suddenly tackled her to the ground.
Chen Siyuan felt excruciating pain on one side of her body and was about to lash out when she suddenly heard a whooshing sound.
From the open door, countless arrows shone with a purple light.
Li Ze, who was standing at the door and unable to dodge in time, was hit by three arrows.
He is in very bad shape right now.
Chen Siyuan, keeping her promise, wanted to do something for him, but Li Ze just burst into laughter.
"None of you will survive. Once the door is open, the mechanism inside will be activated, and the people inside will soon perish in the flames."
"You..." Chen Siyuan was furious. She had originally thought this person was going to help her, but now it seemed that he was doing it on purpose.
Chen Siyuan looked at Li Ze in front of her, wishing she could finish him off.
Just as Chen Siyuan was about to make a move, a voice suddenly appeared, "I can."
Soon, a figure appeared in their line of sight.
Chen Siyuan looked over and saw that this was one of the three hostages that Li Yiyi had just captured.
This person had been very quiet. At first, I thought he was frightened, but seeing his appearance now, it seemed that wasn't the case.
"Who are you?" She had already seen the traps earlier, and she didn't know how many more traps like these were inside. Chen Siyuan was very worried that if they fell into one, everyone would be killed along with them.
If Qiao Yuchen's life was bought with this person's money, I believe he wouldn't feel good about it either.
Chen Siyuan saw this young man and hoped that he really had the ability.
"I am Huoye."
fire?
This surname is quite special. Chen Siyuan remembers that the lock on the nanmu box left by her mother was made by Master Huoguang. Could this person have some connection with Master Huoguang?
What is your relationship with Firelight?
Yang Lei could no longer remain calm upon hearing this.
Everyone knows Master Huoguang. He disappeared from everyone's sight for many years, and now this young man has suddenly appeared. No one is sure what's going on.
"Huoguang is my father." Huoye said, walked to the entrance of the secret passage, and looked inside carefully. "The hidden arrows in this mechanism are gone. Follow me, and you will soon find the person you are looking for."
Chen Siyuan looked at Huo Ye, who had walked in on his own initiative, and she was about to follow him in.
At this moment, Yang Lei and Wang Li were one step ahead.
Chen Siyuan was forced to follow behind, but she still turned around and said to those who wanted to come in, "You wait outside, I'll let you in first."
If the firework company doesn't have the ability, or if it's another trap, Chen Siyuan can't let so many people take the risk.
Wang Li and Yang Lei shared the same idea and therefore agreed with this statement.
Huo Ye, who was walking ahead, didn't pay much attention to them. As he walked, he suddenly stopped and threw a copper coin forward, instantly illuminating the surroundings.
Only when they looked closely did they realize that they had been walking on a place that was slightly wider than a log bridge.
