"I'll go with you."
Just as Wu Yigou was preparing to leave, Xiaobai suddenly transmitted a message to Li Xuan, saying that A'li's aura was already weak. Li Xuan's heart immediately burned with rage.
Wu Yigou was taken aback, but seeing Li Xuan's expression turn a few degrees colder, he swallowed his questions.
Noticing Wu Yigou's hesitant look, Li Xuan turned to him and asked, "Sect Master Wu, is there any inconvenience?"
"Since your excellency wishes to accompany us, there is naturally no inconvenience," Wu Yigou replied, shaking his head.
"Please," Li Xuan nodded and followed Wu Yigou's steps.
"A'jin's aura is inside," when Li Xuan, Wu Yigou, and Liu Shaoyun landed on Crescent Peak, Xiaobai transmitted again.
Li Xuan's gaze immediately shifted to Wu Yigou, who was already waiting for him. Without a word, Wu Yigou grabbed Liu Shaoyun and darted towards the side hall to the front left.
At this moment, Wu Yigou also felt a hint of worry. Although Li Xuan did not know what this side hall was, Wu Yigou, as the patriarch of the Wu family, knew it extremely well.
This side hall was a forbidden area of the Nine Sects.
Furthermore, there was virtually no precedent of any living creature that entered this side hall emerging alive. Thinking of this, Wu Yigou's speed involuntarily increased.
"Your excellency, is there a being you are looking for?"
After entering the side hall, a faint sense of dizziness washed over them. However, Li Xuan quickly adapted, and Wu Yigou's voice sounded in his ears.
Li Xuan immediately transmitted a message to Xiaobai to inquire.
Upon entering this side hall, Li Xuan discovered that it was unlike the main hall. The numerous prison cells were subtly concealed by various formations.
Li Xuan's divine sense, once released, was intercepted. While Li Xuan could break through it with his mastery of formations, it was undoubtedly not the optimal choice.
"Go further inside," Xiaobai's voice quickly sounded in Li Xuan's mind.
Li Xuan immediately walked straight into the depths. Seeing this, Wu Yigou hurried to follow.
Five minutes later, Li Xuan stopped before a formation light.
At this moment, Liu Shaoyun, whom Wu Yigou was carrying, his expression changed slightly, but he quickly broke into a sinister smile: "This prison cell belongs to my Liu family. Without my father's token, you cannot enter."
"Hahaha, to tell you the truth, the essence blood of those two spirit beasts has already begun to be collected. Even if you break through the prison door with all your might, it will be too late."
As Liu Shaoyun's words fell, Wu Yigou's expression changed drastically. Li Xuan, on the other hand, clearly displayed a murderous intent.
However, Li Xuan also knew that this was not the time to deal with Liu Shaoyun, and he looked at Wu Yigou.
"Your excellency, what Liu Shaoyun says is true. This prison cell belongs to the Liu family. Even I, I'm afraid, cannot enter it," Wu Yigou said with a helpless wry smile.
Li Xuan frowned slightly and took a step forward. The formation Dao within him instantly shot out like a net.
Half a minute later, under Wu Yigou's anxious gaze, Li Xuan slowly opened his eyes. There was a distinct trace of bloodshot in his eyes.
Then, without waiting for Wu Yigou to speak, Li Xuan walked towards Liu Shaoyun and slowly said, "Without a token, one indeed cannot enter. However, with you here, it's possible!"
As Li Xuan spoke, he flicked his hand towards Liu Shaoyun's arm, and bright red blood instantly flowed down his limb.
"Ah!" Liu Shaoyun, whose skin was directly cut by Li Xuan, let out a cry of pain.
However, Li Xuan paid no heed to Liu Shaoyun at this moment. He quickly used Liu Shaoyun's flowing blood to carve in mid-air. After carving a small spirit array, Li Xuan unleashed a palm strike, and the small spirit array shot towards the formation light on the prison cell.
Hum.
The small spirit array adhered to the formation light and, after a moment, quickly dissolved. With a hum, the formation light slowly dissipated.
And in the eyes of Li Xuan and Wu Yigou, the door to the prison cell opened.
As the prison cell door opened, Li Xuan instantly felt A'jin and A'li's auras. However, just as Xiaobai had sensed, their auras were extremely weak.
Li Xuan gave Wu Yigou a deep look, then his figure moved, and he quickly rushed into the prison cell.
Wu Yigou, who was still standing still, looked at Liu Shaoyun, then at the prison cell door, with a hint of struggle in his eyes.
But soon, Wu Yigou shook his head, casually stopped the bleeding wound on Liu Shaoyun's arm, and then, carrying Liu Shaoyun, entered the prison cell.
Bang!
Just as Wu Yigou entered the prison cell with Liu Shaoyun, a loud bang sounded from the front. Wu Yigou heard the sound and quickly rushed towards the source of the noise.
"This is..."
Seeing Li Xuan holding two spirit beasts covered in blood, even Wu Yigou could now feel the intense killing intent in Li Xuan's heart.
"Today, I require an outcome."
Li Xuan's voice was extremely cold, and his gaze towards Liu Shaoyun was filled with boundless killing intent. He then directly put A'jin and A'li into the Prison Suppression and handed them over to Xiaobai.
"Your excellency, we were unaware of this matter. We ask for your understanding. If any compensation is needed, our Nine Sects will sincerely offer it," Wu Yigou said hurriedly, looking at the murderous Li Xuan.
"Compensation? I only wish to see him suffer the same fate as these spirit beasts," Li Xuan said with a cold snort, glancing at the spirit beasts everywhere whose blood had been drained, and then walked out directly.
Hearing Li Xuan's words, Wu Yigou's expression changed. The same fate as these spirit beasts, wouldn't that mean taking Liu Shaoyun's life?
Wu Yigou knew that Liu Shaoyun was Liu Xuan's only son. From childhood, he had been doted on by Liu Xuan. Otherwise, how could Liu Shaoyun be so arrogant and overbearing?
However, Wu Yigou also knew that with what had happened, it would not be easy to save Liu Shaoyun's life.
The reason Li Xuan did not act in front of him was also to give him face.
When Wu Yigou led Liu Shaoyun out of the side hall, his expression immediately changed.
The entire Crescent Peak was now covered by a massive spirit array that shimmered with golden light. Liu Yi, who had been trapped by Li Xuan earlier, now looked pale, having lost his last resistance.
As for Liu Xuan's clone, it had been completely annihilated by Li Xuan's formations.
At this moment, Li Xuan's figure floated in mid-air, looking down upon the people below like a deity.
Besides the Zhao, Hua, and Hong families, the principals of the Chen and Huo families also emerged. As Wu Yigou appeared with Liu Shaoyun, Li Xuan's cold voice slowly echoed through the sky.
"This matter has nothing to do with you. You have ten breaths of time to withdraw from this peak."
As Li Xuan's words fell, all the people from the Nine Sects were shaken. Clearly, they heard the strong killing intent in Li Xuan's words.
For a moment, everyone fell silent.
This was a life-or-death choice.
