Release the Heroine, Let Me Handle This

Chapter 120: Deadly Game

However, one must not be too clever or too conspicuous. Ye Wenxin vaguely answered, "I don't know, but I can tell you really like animals."

Xi Mengxuan paused, then gave Ye Wenxin a gentle smile without saying anything.

Zhao Teddy, noticing the interaction between Ye Wenxin and Xi Mengxuan, approached, attempting to join the conversation. However, upon seeing Zhao Teddy, Xi Mengxuan stepped back a few paces, moving entirely to another cell.

At that moment, the dungeon door opened, and a plump female cultivator entered.

"Fourth Senior Sister," Xi Mengxuan immediately went forward, bowing respectfully to the plump cultivator.

Ye Wenxin was puzzled, gripping the iron bars and moving closer to understand why the plump cultivator had come again.

"The Eldest Senior Sister knows about this. Make sure you keep a close watch," the plump cultivator instructed Xi Mengxuan without even glancing at Ye Wenxin, then quickly left.

Xi Mengxuan, being astute, understood that the message was actually intended for Ye Wenxin in the cage.

Realizing this, Xi Mengxuan looked at Ye Wenxin with a hint of concern.

Ye Wenxin kept her face covered with a mask to avoid being recognized by Qian Bingxue and others, which would put her in a difficult position.

However, the plump cultivator's message made Ye Wenxin realize she wasn't necessarily an enemy. As for Xi Mengxuan, she seemed to have been placed there by the plump cultivator to assist them in escaping.

"What should we do? Things have escalated," Zhao Teddy, having overheard the plump cultivator, was visibly anxious, unsure how to express his panic.

Perhaps recognizing Ye Wenxin's capabilities, he naturally believed Ye Wenxin could devise a plan to help them escape.

Ye Wenxin pondered for a moment. The simplest method would be to break the lock with a single strike and run. Although they were shackled with chains that suppressed their cultivation, those chains posed no real threat to Ye Wenxin.

As long as Liu Churan wasn't wielding the Locking Immortal Ring around her neck, Ye Wenxin felt she had a thousand ways to escape.

But she didn't want to reveal too much, lest Zhao Teddy realized she intentionally refrained from saving him earlier. Thinking it over, Ye Wenxin turned to Xi Mengxuan and coaxed, "Dear Sister, if you let us out, I'll play any game you want."

Xi Mengxuan, blushing from Ye Wenxin's teasing, was initially flustered. But seeing Ye Wenxin's meaningful glances, she understood her intentions.

Considering the Eldest Senior Sister Qian Bingxue's cruelty, which surpassed even the Shura Hall Leader Bai Chi, Xi Mengxuan hesitated but eventually played along. "Really?"

"Dear Sister, do I look like someone who lies?" Ye Wenxin encouraged further, making Xi Mengxuan suppress her amusement and pretend to think for a few seconds before continuing, "Alright, come serve me tonight. If you please me, I'll ensure your death is swift."

With that, Xi Mengxuan actually took out the key, intending to release Ye Wenxin.

"Wait, can you bring my brother too? Two dragons playing with pearls is fun," Ye Wenxin quickly added, glancing at the pitiful Zhao Teddy.
