Qin Zheng was sincerely apologetic.

At this moment, he understood that being in the hands of the city lord, there was no hope for survival.

As such, he decided to oblige Jiang Xiaobai, as after all, it was due to the Liu Family’s plans to attack the Qin Family that led to such a situation.

Looking at Qin Zheng, Jiang Xiaobai was startled, he hadn’t expected the old man to be this enlightened.

“Also Mr Jiang, if possible, please take my daughter away as well,”

Suddenly, Qin Zheng turned to Jiang Xiaobai with hopeful and pleading eyes, “Such a great favor, our Qin Family will never forget!”

“Father!”

Qin Nianxue burst into tears, clutching Qin Zheng’s hand tightly, refusing to let go.

“Stop this nonsense, if you manage to escape, you’ll be carrying on my hope, and the hope of our Qin Family!”

Qin Zheng rebuked, “You have the Sword Sea Sect backing you up, if you manage to escape back to sect, even Yuwen Tiancheng won’t dare harm you. He doesn’t have the audacity to demand your return from the Sword Sea Sect!”

“No, Father, I will not leave. I cannot watch you die here!” Qin Nianxue burst into tears, fervently clinging onto Qin Zheng.

Qin Zheng also found it unbearable to watch, he closed his eyes and turned his head away.

“Mr. Jiang, I…”

Just as Qin Zheng was about to speak, he was interrupted by Jiang Xiaobai.

“Lord Qin, why make it so hard?”

Jiang Xiaobai smiled bitterly, “The reason I dared to come here is because I’m sure I can take all of you with me, there’s no need for this.”

Upon hearing these words, everyone inside the cell was stunned, their faces full of disbelief.

“Mr. Jiang, you… you really can take us all out of here?” Qin Zheng exclaimed. “Of course, otherwise I wouldn’t have come all this way, right?”

Jiang Xiaobai smiles, “However, we’ll need your cooperation to escape.”

Qin Zheng was incredibly excited. He had never before envisioned escaping this situation, but now there was hope, he was ready to do whatever it takes!

“Just tell us what we need to do Mr. Jiang, we will definitely cooperate!” Qin Zheng eagerly replied.

“It’s not a big trouble, just don’t resist when I try to take you guys out.”

Jiang Xiaobai said as he took out the Pagoda from his hand.

Seeing this treasured artifact, shock filled Qin Zheng’s eyes. Despite his years of experiences, he was unable to identify the rank of the artifact. From the aura alone, he knew that this was no ordinary item!

“Don’t resist, I will suck you all in.”

Jiang Xiaobai said, activating his Pagoda.

Suddenly, a multi-colored light appeared in front of everyone, and without any resistance, Qin Zheng and the others were sucked into the Pagoda.

Meanwhile, Jiang Xiaobai fell to the ground like a lifeless body.

He convulsed, with foam appearing at the corner of his mouth. He forcibly stuffed few Yuan Infants pills into his mouth, which relieved him a lot. “Bloody hell, just absorbing a few people and I’m almost drained dry?”

Jiang Xiaobai, frustrated, stared at the Pagoda in front of him, “After feeding you so many top-grade spirit stones, you can’t even help me share a little work?”

Upon hearing this, the Pagoda shook violently, seemingly expressing its displeasure.

A thought passed into Jiang Xiaobai’s mind at the same time.

“You’re saying you already did your best?” Jiang Xiaobai was stunned.

The Pagoda shook slightly and flew back into Jiang Xiaobai’s hand, then went into the system’s storage space.

Upon seeing this, Jiang Xiaobai was left dumbfounded.

According to the Pagoda, it had been helping him to its fullest capacity, otherwise Jiang Xiaobai wouldn’t have been able to activate it.

Such an artifact, which has its own consciousness, could be called a spirit treasure, and Jiang Xiaobai trusted its words.

With that, he gasped in shock.

He was currently at the peak of the Yuan Infant stage, just one step away from achieving Transcendence, but just a slight activation almost killed him. How could he use this treasure in future fights?

Would he be convulsing and foaming at the mouth just after throwing out the Pagoda?

Would it be like harming himself more than the enemy?

Shaking his head, Jiang Xiaobai pulled himself together, deciding not to ponder over these thoughts.

The most important thing right now was to find a chance to escape the city lord’s mansion.

The entire mansion was sealed by a formation, and if Jiang Xiaobai comes into contact with it, he would be discovered instantly and all would be lost.

“I can only wait.”

With that in mind, Jiang Xiaobai deployed his mosquito form, and after flying out and closing the secret chamber, he found a quiet place alongside the edge of the mansion’s formation field to keep watch.

“Well, they won’t move unless I do, even if they search high and low, I bet they won’t know where I am.”

Jiang Xiaobai was perched on a tree branch, watching closely at his surroundings. The moment the formation was opened, even if only for a moment, he would be able to rush out.

Meanwhile, the city lord’s mansion was already in a state of lockdown. The city lord, Yuwen Tiancheng, was poisoned by an intruder, and no one noticed!

This caused a wave of shame among all the guards and masters in the mansion. They would dig three feet into the ground to find the intruder.

Unfortunately, as Jiang Xiaobai thought, with his “72 Transformations” and “Divine Concealment” technique, even if they turned the mansion upside down, they still couldn’t find him.

At this time, in the study room of the city lord’s mansion, Yuwen Tiancheng was gnashing his teeth out of rage.

After a thorough investigation, a seductive woman found remnants of the medicinal powder on the bookshelf, which had been stealthily placed there by the intruder.

It was unacceptable for Yuwen Tiancheng that the intruder had reached his study room unimpeded!

Had it not been for this, he would’ve killed everyone out of anger.

“Are you all just loafing around, eating for free? You haven’t found a shadow or even a hint of the invader’s presence?!” Yuwen Tiancheng banged on the table in rage.

All his subordinates kept their heads down, not daring to make a sound. Seeing them act thus, made Yuwen Tiancheng even more furious.

Yuwen Tiancheng clenched his teeth, and sat in his chair deep in thought.

“Since I found the problem, I activated the grand formation. It has been intact till now, which means the intruder is still hiding inside the mansion.”

“Damn it, he doesn’t put me, Yuwen Tiancheng, in his eyes at all! Is he implying that I’m worthless?”

Yuwen Tiancheng pounded the table in a fit of rage, his eyes bloodshot. He shouted, “Go call that old man Wei Guang, also inform the Liu Family to come over.”

“As soon as you find the intruder, take action. Anyone who kills the invader will be rewarded with ten million top-grade spirit stones!”

He would wipe out the disgrace of today, no matter the cost!
