Amidst the dust that blotted out the sky, a group of masked men rode large horses and stood guard not far away.
The man in the iron mask at the front was holding a golden mask, which was now covered in dust.
The arena in City B is gone, but Su Li still owns businesses elsewhere.
When Qin Yuan was preparing to betray the core secrets of the arena, Su Li had already decided to abandon the arena, and the important things and money had long been transferred away.
Therefore, when Xiao Jin and his companions began to rebel and fight against the Iron Mask in their fight for freedom, they retreated so decisively.
It wasn't that they couldn't win, but the boss ordered them to retreat. The boss also wanted to use someone else to do his dirty work and kill that good-for-nothing Qin Yuan.
Everything was going according to the boss's plan.
"Boss, are we still going to follow the boss?"
"No need, the boss said we should go back to the Su family to report the death."
The man in the iron mask standing at the front, wearing a golden mask, was the first to turn his horse around and go back to report.
The boss also told her that she would come back to them when the time was right.
It also allowed him to take his men and money to do some normal business, such as running a security escort agency, a restaurant, a grand restaurant, or even trading information.
He was also tasked with looking after the previous businesses.
The Su family has businesses in City B and many other towns, making them incredibly wealthy and influential in both the legal and illegal worlds.
The current head of the Su family is Qin Jian.
He married into the Su family, but he cheated on his wife and had a child with Qin Yuan.
The original owner's mother, Su Rou, knew about it long ago, and she handed over all of the Su family's assets to the original owner.
She was blind and delusional before, loving the wrong person and trusting the wrong person. She is willing to correct her mistakes and has begun to close her heart and lock away her love.
However, she passed away quite early.
The masked man she left behind for the original owner was the most loyal.
However, after Su Rou's death, Qin Jian banished the original owner to the arena in City B, where he took over as the head of the Su family. The original owner was also poisoned by Qin Yuan.
When Ah Li arrived, the original owner of the body was poisoned and clung to life, asking Ah Li to avenge her. She wanted to kill Qin Yuan, kill Qin Jian, and take back the Su family.
Those masked men went back to report the death, and also to purge the Su family. Qin Jian will die too.
?
That being said...
Xiao Jin ran with Ah Li for a very, very long time.
When Ahri couldn't run anymore, Xiao Jin didn't say a word and carried Ahri on his back and ran.
Along the way, several people came to meet up with Xiao Jin.
They said there were still slaves who hadn't escaped, and they didn't know who had found the core mechanism.
They didn't know that if the core structure was destroyed, the arena would also be destroyed.
The change came too suddenly; not many people were able to escape.
Like the most heinous death row inmates and the most wicked villains, none of them escaped alive from the Colosseum; they were all buried in the quicksand along with the Colosseum.
There is quicksand around the Colosseum.
Once the core mechanism is destroyed, the moment the arena collapses, the surrounding quicksand will surge in and bury people alive.
During this time, Ah Li stayed by Xiao Jin's side.
Those people would call Xiao Jin "Young Master" and even found them a small courtyard to live in.
Ahri also changed into a simple dress.
Those people called her Miss Ali.
Xiao Jin did not say he wanted to marry her.
The weather was rather muggy that night.
Ah Li was so hot she couldn't sleep. As soon as she opened the window, she saw two people standing in the yard.
One of the two men was Xiao Jin, and the other looked somewhat familiar.
Ahri thought back and realized she seemed to have seen it in the Colosseum.
Their voices were somewhat low.
But Ahri still heard quite a bit.
The person standing next to Xiao Jin said, "Young Master, I did see her talking to those masked men. They were very respectful to her. Her identity is definitely not simple."
"Furthermore, the head of the Li family said that as long as you marry into the Li family, they will definitely help you find the Xiao family's enemies."
"Young Master, you can't hesitate any longer! What we need to do now is avenge the patriarch and the others! We can't let them die with their eyes wide open in anger!"
Ahri didn't listen to what was said after that.
She moved away from the window, sat at the table, and, by the faint moonlight, looked around the room.
The room is simply furnished yet very cozy.
The wooden furniture still exudes a faint woody smell.
There are several potted plants on the windowsill, which Ali planted when he was bored.
The sky had brightened sometime earlier, still shrouded in a thin mist.
Just then, Ah Li's door opened. She didn't take away anything Xiao Jin had prepared for her, including the clothes.
She glanced at the small courtyard again, then lowered her head and slowly walked to the gate.
She opened the gate to the courtyard.
There were people guarding the tea stall not far from the entrance. They only glanced at Ah Li and didn't ask her where she was going.
Ahri lowered her head and silently stepped out of the courtyard gate, into the thin mist.
The sky gradually brightened.
Xiao Jin has been very busy lately, searching for clues and looking for his enemies.
The Pangu legacy within him was unsealed at some point, and his memories were restored.
He was still thinking that once everything settled down, he would marry Ah Li in a grand ceremony and make her the matriarch of the Xiao family.
However, when he knocked on Ahri's door and no one answered, he panicked.
He pushed open the door, and in the quiet room, everything was neatly arranged.
Where is Ahri?
Where is such a big Ahri?
Xiao Jin immediately remembered that he had originally wanted to visit Ah Li last night, but was stopped by someone and listened to that person say some nonsense.
