Suddenly, he felt a great force rushing towards him.
Then came a series of wild roars.
Leading the way was Ning Xiucai, followed by those whom Xie Lingqin had seen imprisoned in the cells before.
They were rushing toward the iron prison door that Ning Yi was banging on.
As the saying goes, many hands make light work.
Suddenly, dozens of people rushed past, and the iron pillars on the iron gate were finally smashed one by one.
Upon seeing this, Ning called out "Brother Ning" and then slumped to the side.
"Ning Yi, Ning Yi..." The scholar held Ning Yi's body and cried out in pain until he checked Ning Yi's nose and found that he was still breathing. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.
Behind Ning Xiucai, the people who had fought with them earlier caught up, and for a moment, the fight turned into chaos.
"Quick, Miss Xie, over here, over here..."
With his face swollen, Ning Xiucai desperately raised his hand towards Xie Lingqin.
Since that path was not feasible, he decided to take the opposite approach.
At this moment, such a commotion would bring even the most excited and irrational person back to reality and realize that something was wrong.
Then, everyone dispersed around the stands.
Tinghai grabbed the fat boss by the neck and shouted, "Stop it, everyone!"
Upon seeing this, the guards immediately stopped.
But the beasts will not stop.
In that instant, Xie Lingqin and the others reacted incredibly quickly, rushing out through the broken door.
At the same time, with a kick, he sent each guard inside.
With a clang, the door was blocked again.
"Ah, help! Let us out!"
Tinghai breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Xie Lingqin was alright.
At the same time, a series of chaotic yet orderly footsteps sounded, and Zihe arrived with the Prefect of the Capital and his soldiers.
For a moment, the room fell silent. The chaotic and excited scene from just moments before was nowhere to be seen, as if it were a hallucination.
“Tinghai, where is Miss?” Zihe stepped forward and asked.
"Miss has left from that side with her people."
Tinghai pointed and greeted the Prefect of the Capital, then escorted the fat boss towards the back passage.
The lewd magistrate of Jingzhao was deeply troubled at this moment.
He had heard of this place before, but every time he sent people there, they returned empty-handed. He suspected that someone was pulling the strings behind the scenes and that it was difficult to deal with. So, as long as no one reported it, he would just turn a blind eye. But now, looking at the corpses of tigers, wolves, and people on the stands, he couldn't help but feel nauseous.
What shocked him even more was that Tinghai, who was supposed to be a guard by the Crown Prince's side, seemed to be showing Xie Lingqin a great deal of respect here.
Of course, he doesn't have time to think about it right now.
Immediately drive away these ignorant fools and clean up the mess.
As for those with status and position in the private rooms upstairs, they had naturally already quietly slipped away.
Xie Lingqin and the others had already emerged from the tunnel.
Before leaving, she had Ning Yi use his inner strength to break down the wall, completely blocking the path for those people and animals.
Xie Danling walked at the very back, her expression somewhat complicated, her gaze fixed on Xie Lingqin's hand holding Ning Yi's.
When they were escaping, Xie Lingqin didn't arrest her own brother, but instead went to save the boy who had just woken up.
This feeling made him feel uneasy.
"Miss, are you alright?"
"Young master, are you alright?"
Tinghai, Zihe, and the guards from Liuyunzhou all gathered around, their faces filled with lingering fear.
Liu Yunzhou waved his hand at his guards with lingering fear, "Fortunately, I'm still alive."
"Miss, what should we do with him?" Tinghai brought the fat boss up and said, "Just now, I was ordered by you to arrest this fat boss, but I didn't expect that he had helpers by his side. However, I don't know why, even though he was not at a disadvantage, he suddenly escaped. I thought of your comfort and didn't chase after him."
Xie Lingqin nodded. "I understand."
"Ah, I was blind to your abilities, please, esteemed guests, show mercy."
"Show mercy." Xie Lingqin approached him and looked at him. "How dare you, a heartless person like you, utterly lacking in humanity, utterly disrespectful?" Xie Lingqin sneered and looked at Tinghai. "There are still wild beasts in the next room that haven't been released. Send them there."
"No, no!"
Upon hearing this, the fat boss was immediately horrified and begged for mercy.
"No, when you saw these people begging and pleading under the coercion of wild beasts, did you ever ask them if they wanted it? Hmm, when you treated human life like dirt, did you ever think this day would come? I don't want to interrogate you anymore. I think even if I did, you wouldn't tell. Since that's the case, then..."
"No, no, no, I'll tell you, I'll tell you whatever you want, sir."
Xie Lingqin tore off her blood-stained veil, a smile playing on her lips.
Although the light was dim and there was blood on her face and body, her flowing black hair made her seem like a fairy who had descended to earth, giving people a sense of purity and sanctity.
Liu Yunzhou withdrew his gaze and stepped forward, asking, "Who owns this arena? Who is behind it?"
"Yes, it's Eunuch Zhuang, who serves Consort Lan."
Those around Consort Lan?
Liu Yunzhou's face darkened, and Xie Lingqin's expression tightened. She looked at Liu Yunzhou and said, "Since you brought these people here, this matter is now yours."
Liu Yunzhou's expression was solemn. "This matter is serious. I'm afraid I should also report it to the Emperor."
"good."
The man knelt down with a thud, pleading, "I...I don't know anything else. Please spare my life."
Xie Lingqin kicked him, saying, "If I were you, why would I beg for a way to live? I should just beg myself not to go to hell."
