Chapter 138: The Bond Contract

    

ver blueprints for the repeating crossbow and a token that only allowed her to leave the house. He also specifically instructed them to tell her that if she needed money, she could go to the Prince's...Wu Yi's eyes were bloodshot, and he gave her a resolute look before pulling out a fire starter to ignite the wood. The flames reflected in his face, making his expression even more ferocious.

“We have to live! The master would understand, it's too difficult to escape with the master…” Wu Yi spoke, her throat filled with sobs. She paused to compose herself before continuing, “Let’s take the master’s ashes with us.”

Qin Luoyan did not go to blame Wu Yi's actions, because she knew that his heart must be more painful than her own. So she just knelt down slowly in front of the burning logs and kowtowed three times heavily.

The coffin crackled and burned, and within a short while, the smell of burning flesh rose from the pyre. It filled Qin Luoyan's nostrils, stinging her eyes until they ached. That charred scent would linger in her dreams for many years to come, waking her countless times with its acrid sting.

Wu Yi knelt on the ground, his head bowed to the floor. He didn't raise his head until the coffin burned to ashes, leaving only a trace of white dust. Then he got up, took a tablet, and put the ashes in it.

His actions were resolute and decisive from beginning to end, but when he picked up the ashes, his figure still trembled for a moment.

After putting the ashes away, Wu Yi went back to the room and packed a few things before coming out again. He then said to Qin Luo Yan, "Let's go."

"Go" Qin Luoyan was surprised, "Where are we going Are we going to find that important thing"

Wu Yi gave her a languid glance. “We don’t even know what it is, how could we find it And Master never mentioned this thing to us before he died. That means he didn’t want it to fall into Yun Tianxi’s hands. If that’s the case, I wouldn’t hand it over even if I die.”

"Uh... What about Senior Brother then" Qin Luoyan was confused. Suddenly, she remembered Xiao Fan walking towards Yun Tianxi. At that time, he seemed to glance back. There was a hint of reluctance in his eyes, but more importantly, a sense of relief. Now that she thought about it, Xiao Fan at that time clearly had the look of someone going to their death. She trembled and spoke, "Senior Brother isn't planning on coming back alive"

She was shocked, shocked by her elder brother's decision, and even more shocked by the message these two men exchanged in that instant. They made such a choice with just a glance at each other, and both tacitly cooperated with each other.

How deep of a relationship could possibly lead to such a harmonious decision

Therefore, Qin Luoyan would not blame Wu Yi for his ruthlessness. She only felt heartache, heartbroken that the two men had made such a painful decision.

Seeing that she understood, Wu Yi patted her shoulder. "Don't be sad. I think Senior Brother now hopes most to see us escape, so his sacrifice wouldn't be in vain. If it were me who became a hostage, I would have the same thought. So, Junior Sister, don't be sad. For us, as long as we can avenge Master in the future, then all of this is worth it."

Qin Luoyan sobbed, burying her head against his chest. Tears soaked the front of his shirt as she just bit her lip and nodded.

Wu Yi let out a breath and walked towards the courtyard with Qin Luoyan. Knowing that there were definitely people following them in the shadows, Wu Yi didn't walk towards the grain depot but instead walked towards Fu Zimo's courtyard.

Qin Luoyan obediently followed behind him, not speaking, only looking at the horizon in the distance. In another hour, it would be dawn.

When the two arrived at Fu Zi Mo's courtyard, the courtyard was brightly lit. One person stood on the long corridor, his figure hidden in the shadows. When the two approached, he walked out.

"You're a bit slow." Fu Zimo said coldly, clearly displeased.

Did he guess they would come Qin Luo'yan's expression shifted briefly before quickly returning to calm. He was Fu Zimo, the man who easily understood people's hearts and planned strategically. It wasn't surprising that he could anticipate their arrival at this time.

Wu Yi came before him, handing the prepared deed of sale to Fu Zi Mo. She knelt on one knee and pleaded: "My Lord, from now on, I, Wu Yi, am willing to sell myself into slavery, only begging that today, my lord will extend a helping hand to save us, both my brother and I, and let us live."

At that moment, Qin Luoyan's fingertips trembled. She felt an urge to snatch the deed of sale back, for she was already a pawn in Fu Zimu's hands. How could she bear to let Wu Yi fall into this cunning prince's grasp as well But, she didn't move. Because she knew, she couldn't.

Fu Zi Mo's face showed no surprise. He simply took the deed of sale and said in a calm voice: "Taking you out as a slave to my王府, this deal is not a loss for me. It's just that...she was originally my woman, one of the women I cherished before I was left alone. My own woman doesn't need you to beg me to save her."

He gritted his teeth as he recited those four words, "turning and accepting favors." Even at this moment, he didn't forget to remind her of her status. He was also reminding Wu Yi of her status here.

Humiliation, embarrassment, shame... Qin Luoyan had experienced these emotions too many times. Perhaps she had experienced them so often that she had become numb. At this moment, she felt nothing, just standing there like a puppet without saying a word.

Her heart calmed down, as well. Since Fu Zimu had agreed, it seemed their lives were saved.

Just as the sky was beginning to lighten, a massive fire seemed to erupt in the distance. Flames shot up dozens of meters high, illuminating the pale dawn with an intense glow.

The Tianji Pavilion became a chaotic mess due to the fire. The entire street in the market was made of wood, and after several fires started simultaneously, the flames spread rapidly. In the blink of an eye, the entire market seemed like a burning inferno.

Dozens of men in black appeared from nowhere, surrounding Fu Zimu and escorting him out.

Qin Luoyan thought it was Fu Zimu's people who came to save him, but Fu Zimu led them in the direction of Yun Tianxi's residence instead of the exit of Tiangijiao.

"My Lord, are you going to fight Yun Tianxi head-on" Qin Luoyan quickened her pace to keep up with him, unable to hold back her curiosity.

Fu Zi Mo sneered, his voice slightly rising, "Fight it out Yun Tian Xi is even worthy of fighting me" He shook his head and directly led his troops to Yun Tian Xi's residence. After a while, he arrived outside Yun Tian Xi's house.

Originally, Yun Tianxi's residence also caught fire, and it wasn't an ordinary fire. It was a fierce burning ignited by kerosene, something that couldn't be put out with just a few buckets of water.

Yun Tianxi excitedly rushed out with a group of people, seeing Fu Zimo at the gate, he was astonished and pointed at his nose shouting: "Na He Huan! What do you want to do"
