While Tu Nian and the others were still struggling over whether to save people or animals first, Chu Qiurong and Xu Ziqiao were huddled together and whispering in each other's ears in the cell of the West Prison.
"Big Brother and the others haven't arrived yet. Could it be that they haven't noticed that we've been captured?"
Xu Ziqiao said sullenly as he fiddled with the moss between the bricks.
Chu Qiurong glanced at him and said, "Did you get confused by the beating from those demons? The talismans made by Senior Brother all have the mark of his spiritual power. If he suddenly disappeared, there would definitely be a reaction. How could he not notice it?"
Xu Ziqiao lowered his head and said "Oh", then said after a while: "Then they probably went to collect the reward."
"What are you doing!"
Chu Qiurong took a deep breath and raised her hand to poke his head. "This is the Demon Emperor Palace. How can anyone come here as they please? Even if you're going crazy, you should take a closer look at the situation."
Xu Ziqiao's head was poked sideways, and he bounced back and glared at him. Before he could say anything, he heard a creak and the prison door opened. They both turned their heads at the same time and saw an unfamiliar man standing in front of the cell. Judging from his attire, he seemed to be a nobleman.
The man glanced at the two and asked the guard, "Are they them?"
The man stood up straight and replied respectfully, "Yes, Second Prince. They were the ones who caused trouble in the slums this morning."
Second prince?
Chu Qiurong's expression changed.
Isn’t that the one who gave the order to capture the monks as mentioned by the head guard?
Taking in his wary expression, Yuwen Che curled his lips with interest and waved to the guard, "Go down first. You have nothing to do here."
"yes."
After a military salute, the man turned around and left swiftly, while Yuwen Che walked towards the two people in the cell.
"Are you the two who came from the snow to collect the bounty?"
"what are you up to?"
Seeing Yu Wen Che putting his hands into his sleeve pockets as if to take something out, Chu Qiurong and Xu Ziqiao stood up quickly, and the spiritual power in their bodies was circulated to the extreme.
Chu Qiurong is worthy of being at the Nascent Soul stage. Even though his strength has dropped by 30%, the pressure he releases is still strong and powerful. Although Xu Ziqiao is far inferior to him, his fire spiritual root has always been the most violent among all spiritual roots. When the two of them start to fight, it looks really terrifying.
"Don't be so nervous."
However, Yuwen Che's expression remained calm. As he spoke, he took the next step, and a calm power like water emanated from his body. The pressure from Chu Qiurong and Xu Ziqiao suddenly disappeared like a drop in the ocean.
This person... is in the Spirit Transformation Stage!
Staring in horror, Chu Qiurong subconsciously retreated with one hand to stop Xu Ziqiao, but Yu Wenche's face with a faint smile was getting closer and closer to them.
Demon Emperor Palace, outside the ventilation vent of the west hall dungeon.
"Sir, are you sure the entrance is here?"
Looking at the hole that was only wide enough for one person and was covered with spider webs, Su Youzhi frowned in disgust.
With a slight curl of his lips, Bo Qiu said, "Yes, there are fewer guards here. You can't expect to go through the main gate, young lady."
"Just listen to her nagging."
In order to highlight Bo Qiu's image as a perfect man and also to avenge a personal grudge, Tu Nian insisted on playing the good guy to Su Youzhi. After he had just retorted to her, he had already used the Dao Fire Technique to clear the spider web.
She turned around and looked at the three big men with burning eyes.
"I'll do it."
Tu Nian didn't expect that Luo Qinghe would be the first to move among the few people. Of course, it was also because he was closer to the cave entrance. Jin Nanfeng had been following behind all the way, and at first glance, he seemed less active than him.
Su Youzhi's face didn't look good.
If Luo Qinghe went down like this, wouldn't she also have to crawl through this dirty dog hole?
Looking at the black ash accumulated beside the cave, she couldn't help it after all. She walked forward and tugged at the corner of Bo Qiu's clothes. Bo Qiu turned around and saw her looking at him with an aggrieved look.
"Sir, can I wait for you to rescue people?"
Bo Qiu narrowed his fox eyes and said nothing, "Do you want to wait here?"
Needless to say, this request was ridiculous. The whole family had already gone down, and there was no telling what the rescue would be like. Leaving her alone waiting here would simply delay things.
Tu Nian could only sigh that the beauty trap was too clever. It was true that when a proud woman had a backer, she could do anything stupid that no one could imagine.
Luo Qinghe has always doted on the youngest sister in the sect. He frowned upon hearing this and said, "Stop it, Youzhi. This is inappropriate."
Compared to Bo Qiu's gentle tone, Luo Qinghe's words were obviously more serious. As the saying goes, there is no harm without comparison. After hearing this, Su Youzhi felt that his senior brother was not as considerate as others. He bit his teeth lightly and looked even more aggrieved.
Tu Nian was so happy watching this that he kept sending messages to Bo Qiu, "Keep up this momentum, and then we'll finally pull out the plug and make her cry her heart out."
Bo Qiu's face remained calm, but he couldn't help but sigh in his heart: Women are such terrible animals.
Su Youzhi's ulterior motives were one thing, but Luo Qinghe was still her senior brother after all, so she couldn't deny him face. So, Luo Qinghe led the charge, and the others followed suit down the cave.
Entering the dungeon first, Luo Qinghe drew his sword and observed his surroundings vigilantly. After everyone else had landed, he spoke out, "Why are there so few people imprisoned in this prison?"
He looked around and found that the cell near them was empty.
“Isn’t it better to have less?”
Tu Nian brushed off the dust on his body and looked at him with amusement, "It's better than your Yuqing dungeon which is overcrowded."
"Little Four."
Jin Nanfeng, who had always been taciturn, suddenly spoke. Tu Nian paused and looked at him, then stopped smiling and said nothing more.
