Tang Li took away his new bride while Long Feiye and Han Yunxi had long followed the wasp to their guide at Ten Thousand Commerce Hall. Its main defense was the canyon, so it only had ordinary guards. Han Yunxi didn’t know martial arts, so she could only have Long Feiye carry her as he flew. She looked useless, but she’d helped him quite a bit by helping him find his way. The rest would be up to Long Feiye and his team of experts, making it an easy job.

Ning Cheng relied on the fact that nobody publicly knew the connection between the Ning Clan and Cloud Realm Trade Consortium to lock up the two Chu elders here. He didn’t add any extra guards. Soon enough, Long Feiye and Han Yunxi found the prisons and avoided their keepers to find an extremely hidden room. In truth, it was simply a small, dark space purposely used to imprison troublemakers or those with serious crimes. It was completely sealed except for a small metal door with a strangely-shaped lock.

Long Feiye was dressed in black robes and a dark face mask, making him look both handsome and mysterious. He looked good even when knocking on the door.

“Who’s there?” a familiar voice immediately spoke up--that of the Chu Clan head. He and his father had been locked up for ages. Aside from their daily meals, no one ever came to visit them. But the person who fed them never knocked on their door, so both men were on guard.

“Your lordship!” Long Feiye’s low, icy tones scared both men. Who expected Long Feiye and Han Yunxi to find their way here? What were they doing?

“Duke of Qin?” “Long Feiye, it’s you?” Their voices were a mix of pleasant surprise and caution.

“Long Feiye, what do you want to do?” Chu Yunyi asked. He hated both him and Ning Cheng equally. Although Long Feiye was Ning Cheng’s enemy, the Chu Clan was ruined because of the former’s hands. What did he want to do here, besides kill them?

“If you want to get out, then shut your mouths,” Long Feiye warned icily. He might be here to rescue them today, but he didn’t have to coax them to come out. Whether or not they were willing, he’d whisk them away regardless. These two were the best way to control Chu Tianyin, an important chess piece in Cloud Realm Continent’s western regions.

“Long Feiye, you...you’re going to bring us out of here?” “Long Feiye, you came all this way to joke? You’re certainly in a good mood!”

Neither Chu elder believed him, but their voices couldn’t hide the traces of joy and anticipation in their tone. After all, they’d given up hope for anything except growing old in this dark jail cell. Now they needed a confirmation, but Long Feiye just ignored them. He picked up the lock on the door and studied it. Although there were plenty of easy ways to open the door, any loud noises would only attract attention. If they wanted to save these people, the best method would be to unlock the door. The two Chu elders exchanged glances as they heard Long Feiye fiddling with the lock.

“Long Feiye, what’s your game?” Chu Yunyi couldn’t resist asking.

“Of course it’s to bring you out. What, you’ve gotten so used to prison life that you want to stay?” Han Yunxi asked coldly. When she recalled how they’d treated Gu Beiyue, her stomach raged with fury. If possible, she didn’t want to save them at all.

“Tianyin, he...just what’s happened to him?” the Chu Clan head grew anxious. Isn’t he on Ning Cheng’s side now?

“We’ll talk after we get out. What’s the origins of this lock?”
