Skinny Monkey realized that the two beautiful girls behind the man were incredibly capable.
Even the Grand Envoy might not be able to defeat him!
Therefore, the skinny monkey was not afraid of Li Yu settling scores with him later, and he pushed all the blame onto Li Yu in an attempt to save his life.
"Where is he?" Cao Jinchang asked expressionlessly, his curved knife still pressed against the skinny monkey's neck.
"At the Cao family's ancestral home," the skinny monkey quickly stated Li Yu's location, then tearfully begged for mercy, "Big brother, please spare my worthless life! I'm really just a lowly errand boy, only following orders, forced into this situation. I have an eighty-year-old mother to support and a three-year-old child to raise..."
"Utterly shameless!"
Bai Lu couldn't stand it anymore; this skinny monkey's shamelessness had simply lowered her standards.
She stepped forward and kicked the skinny man to the ground, angrily saying, "Do you think we're all blind? Can't you see the several girls covered in bruises in this house, can't you see the poor old people and children in the yard, or can't you hear that these people used to call you 'Big Brother'?"
When the skinny monkey fell, his neck was cut by Cao Jinchang's blade, and blood gushed out.
He knelt on the ground, clutching the wound on his neck, and cried bitterly, "Female Bodhisattva, two fairy ladies, what I said is true. If I hadn't listened to Chief Envoy Li, my family would have suffered the same fate. I was only trying to protect myself!"
Ji Fengyao and her group did not find the skinny monkey immediately.
The group sneaked into Yongcheng and rescued several groups of family members of the Canal Gang before finally finding this place.
Therefore, they are fully aware of what the skinny monkey has been doing recently.
Hearing the skinny monkey's repeated denials and his attempt to bring up his family, Cao Jinchang was overwhelmed with grief, remembering his parents, wife, daughters, and young grandson who had died tragically and were still hanging on the city wall. He raised his knife to strike, shouting, "You shameless scoundrel...!"
"Wait a minute, Uncle Cao," Ji Fengyao quickly reached out and held Cao Jinchang's hand.
"Nine..." In his excitement, Cao Jinchang almost revealed Ji Fengyao's identity: "Miss, why won't you let me kill him? He's a heartless, shameless beast!"
Ji Fengyao's phoenix eyes were cold as she looked at the skinny monkey on the ground, who was filled with smugness and hope. She said, "It's not that I don't want you to kill him. I just feel that he has committed so many evils, and it would be too easy for him to die so easily. He deserves to suffer as much as he has taken and as much evil as he has done. Only in this way can the resentment of those he killed be appeased!"
The skinny monkey thought that Ji Fengyao was beautiful and young, so she would be easy to fool.
She must have been moved by his words to stop Cao Jinchang from killing him.
Upon hearing Ji Fengyao's words, the skinny monkey felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.
"Yes! Such beasts don't deserve a quick death!" Cao Jinchang gasped for breath, tears streaming down his face. "My elderly parents, my wife, my daughter, and my three-year-old grandson cannot be left hanging for a month in vain. I will tear them apart, skin them alive, and grind their bones to dust!"
Skinny Monkey finally realized that if he fell into the hands of these three, he would surely die.
In his panic, he thought of Li Yu.
Perhaps he could summon Li Yu and escape while Li Yu is fighting these people!
Using his prone position on the ground as cover, Skinny Monkey quickly took out a communication dart from his sleeve, pulled the pin, and threw it out the window.
Bai Lu instinctively wanted to leap out of the window to intercept the hidden arrow, but Ji Fengyao stopped her.
