He Yuzhu returns in Siheyuan

Chapter 707 Everyone Agrees with This Plan

When everyone heard Qingyi's words, they immediately understood and nodded. One of them looked at Qingyi and said, "Don't worry about this matter. If the people from the Tiger Sect hadn't said with certainty that this matter could be easily handled, we wouldn't have easily come here to wade into this muddy water." His words revealed that he was half-believing and half-doubting the Tiger Sect's statement, but since he was already here, he could only bite the bullet and go ahead.

No one wants to die now. After all, everyone knows what the monsters of the demon clan are going to do, which is to refine all these people into pills. How can this be possible?

Qingyi understood the deal was done, and without further delay, he began slowly removing the seals. He also kept a vigilant eye on his surroundings, wary of any demons outside taking advantage of the situation. He quickly formed seals with his hands, and a mysterious light emanated from his fingertips, slowly enveloping everyone. The seal gradually loosened under the light's influence. His eyes were firm and focused, and beads of sweat formed on his forehead from his intense concentration.

While Qingyi was busy inside, He Yuzhu was strolling around leisurely outside. He looked around, trying to find those human cultivators, but after searching for a long time, he didn't see a single person.

Liu Hu followed behind He Yuzhu, watching him wander aimlessly, and couldn't help but say, "Sir, can we go back and rest? We've been searching for a long time, but to no avail. I'm afraid it would be futile to continue."

He Yuzhu smiled and said, "Forget it, let's look for it again. There's nothing to do when we go back anyway. Maybe we can find some clues if we look for it again." Having said that, Liu Hu discovered that from today on, He Yuzhu didn't seem to be focused on looking for human cultivators. He was more focused on playing and frolicking with Xiaoli and the others, as if he treated this as a leisurely outing. After all, he was free anyway.

Xiaoli blinked her lively eyes, looked at He Yuzhu, and said in a soft voice, "Yuzhu, let's go back. It's really boring to wander around here. We haven't encountered anything interesting in half a day."

He Yuzhu turned to look at Liu Hu and said, "Okay, since some people are tired, we should go back." After that, he took Xiaoli and Liu Hu back.

A faint smile crossed Liu Hu's face as he pondered. The Liu family and the Hu family, where Xiao Li belonged, had always enjoyed a good relationship. If the Hu family could truly unite with the Jiaolong clan, it would actually be a good thing for the Liu family. Liu Hu was well aware of his responsibilities. This time, his main purpose was to protect He Yuzhu and Xiao Li, ensuring they would not come to any harm.

As the days passed, Li Di's doubts grew deeper and deeper. He looked at the humans and felt their behavior was a little strange, but he couldn't really put his finger on why. After all, he didn't know what to do.

Li Di's injuries were still far from fully healed. He relied entirely on his own recovery abilities, with no mana left in him. He looked utterly frail. He looked at his elders worriedly and asked, "Elder, why hasn't the Sect Master come to rescue us yet? It's been so long. Could something have happened?"

The elder also looked helpless and confused. He had never expected things to develop like this. If he had known this matter was so difficult, he would never have come so easily. He looked at Li Di and said slowly, "Has He Yuzhu not been arrested yet?"

Because Li Di and Qingyi were not in the same cell, he did not see what was happening to He Yuzhu. He asked in confusion, "Elder, are you saying that we should wait for He Yuzhu to rescue us? But how could he come to rescue us?" His words were full of doubts and worries.

The elder shook his head with disdain and snorted coldly, "He Yuzhu? Humph, he is a complete waste! What can you expect from a person like that? It's simply wishful thinking. However, I do have his address book here, which is a treasure. We can use this to negotiate terms with those monsters. As long as they let the two of us go, they won't care about anyone else." There was a cunning light in the elder's eyes, and he was thinking about his own wishful thinking in his mind.

Li Di's gaze swept over the people from the Fierce Tiger Sect with him. His lips moved, as if to say something. But he swallowed the words back. At this moment, he was filled with helplessness and despair. He couldn't even protect himself, so what was the point in saving his companions? If they fell into the hands of the demons, they would inevitably be enslaved. What was the point in saving them?

Li Di turned his head, looked at the elder and asked, "Elder, when we get out, how are we going to explain this to the clan?"

The elder wore a calculating smile and said slowly, "We'll just say we were injured, recuperating in a remote place, wasting some time recovering, and finally managed to escape. Do you understand?" In reality, the elder had another plan in mind. He looked at Li Di and thought to himself, once we escape, Li Di must die too. After all, Li Di knew too much, and keeping him around was a hidden danger. As for why he was taking Li Di with him, it was simply to make him his scapegoat.

Li Di was completely unaware of the elder's sinister intentions. He looked at the elder blankly and asked, "When are we going to do this?"

The elder narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Li Di and said, "Have you noticed that the demon who asked you to leave these two days, although full of hostility towards you, has a rather powerful background."

Li Di looked at the elder with a puzzled expression and asked, "What kind of monster is he? Is he some powerful character?"

The elder pondered for a moment, then slowly spoke, "Judging from the aura he exudes and the strength he displays, he must be from the Jiaolong clan. This clan has always been mysterious and rarely appears in the world. I didn't expect someone from the Jiaolong clan to show up this time. This is not a good thing, and I'm afraid it will bring many variables to our plans."

Li Di was shocked when he heard this and said, "Didn't the Jiaolong clan disappear? How could a Jiaolong monster suddenly appear? This is too unbelievable."

The elder shook his head helplessly and said, "There are rumors that the Jiaolong Clan no longer emerges from the mountains and has hidden itself from the world. But no one has ever said they have disappeared. It seems that this matter must be reported to the Sect Master as soon as possible so that he can be informed and make countermeasures."
