"I must have been out of my mind for a moment... If I'd known I was going to die here, I might as well have gone back to the Shackling Prison and served my sentence... A bad life is still better than a good death."

One of the escapees was wounded and was now somewhat weak.

"Do you know where we are right now?"

Seeing Jiaoqiu lowered his voice and questioned the escapee.

"I don't know. Just like you, I was brought here with my head covered."

The escapee shook his head, indicating he had no idea.

"Although Hu Lei's group can currently hide among the bustling streets, being discovered is only a matter of time."

"He dares to let me go—what is he planning?"

Failing to get the information he wanted, Seeing Jiaoqiu fell into thought once more.

Stelle: "Besides Seeing Jiaoqiu, are there other hostages here?"

Furina: "From what they just said, these two are escapees who broke out of the Shackling Prison during the chaos!"

Furina: "It's just that these two escapees were conveniently captured by Hu Lei?"

Hu Tao: "What's the point of grabbing these two?"

Hu Tao: "Could it be for food?"

Hu Tao: "Eww~ how creepy! 060"

Lumine: "I'd say they brought this on themselves, right?"

Lumine: "Breaking out of prison comes with the price of breaking out of prison."

Lumine: "Still, being eaten alive by a Buli people—I can't really accept that way of dying either."

Topaz: "Tsk tsk tsk, two unlucky fools."

Topaz: "They thought that escaping from the Shackling Prison would mean regaining their freedom."

Topaz: "Little did they know, not only did they not gain freedom, they fell right into the wolf's mouth."

Paimon: "Just like that person said earlier, knowing it would turn out like this, they really might as well have stayed in prison!"

Paimon: "Doing time in prison is rough, but at least it's better than being eaten!"

The video continues.

Seeing Jiaoqiu couldn't figure it out,

so he looked toward Modu at the door,

hoping to sound him out.

"Although I don't understand my lord Hu Lei's intentions."

"But don't think you can run away, understand?"

Seeing Seeing Jiaoqiu walking over,

Modu only dropped a single line,

then ignored Seeing Jiaoqiu.

Seeing this, Seeing Jiaoqiu steeled himself,

and walked out the door.

He then saw a fox person standing guard at the entrance.

"What are you wandering around in front of me for?"

The fox person, seeing Seeing Jiaoqiu staring at him,

was somewhat displeased.

"You're a Buli person."

Seeing Jiaoqiu realized this fox person was disguised.

"Not bad."

The fox person nodded and admitted it.

"You look too much like a fox person..."

"This is how you people sneak into the Luofu Xianzhou."

"If I weren't familiar enough with the Buli people's scent... I wouldn't be able to tell real from fake either."

This fox person, whose true identity was hard to discern,

left Seeing Jiaoqiu deeply suspicious.

"Never seen such a miraculous potion before, have you?"

Seeing Jiaoqiu's surprised expression

made the disguised fox person feel quite pleased with himself.

"A potion that changes one's appearance? I heard that during the Jianmu disaster, an internal rebellion broke out within the Alchemy Commission..."

"It seems these infiltrators have inside help on the Luo Fu Xianzhou."

Listening to the disguised fox person's words,

Seeing Jiaoqiu fell into thought.

"My lord told you to go check the port, you lowly beast—what are you dawdling around here for?"

Seeing Seeing Jiaoqiu standing there in a daze,

the disguised fox person immediately snapped at him.

Seeing this, Seeing Jiaoqiu had no choice but to keep his distance.

"He actually let me move around freely... what game is he playing?"

"Maybe I can try to secretly send out a warning..."

【No, maybe I have a chance to leave this place directly...】

After walking some distance,

Jiaoqiu found that no one was actually following behind him,

and the thought of escaping sprouted in his mind.

But just then, a sharp gaze swept over from not far away,

making Jiaoqiu abandon the idea.

【I knew it... this guy was testing me.】

Xingqiu: "No wonder they dared to let Mr. Jiaoqiu go out."

Xingqiu: "Turns out there are so many people tailing him in the shadows!"

Paimon: "Can't tell at all, can't tell at all!"

Paimon: "These Abundance Folk disguise themselves far too well!"

Yanqing: "Once these Abundance Folk suddenly turn violent against the people beside them, the consequences would be simply unthinkable!"

March 7th: "Pills like these must be destroyed or countered somehow, or else in the future any Abundance Folk could just disguise themselves as Foxian — that would be terrible!"

Miss Lingsha: "Mm, well said. This one will keep it in mind."

Furina: "So is Mr. Jiaoqiu going to escape now, or not?"

Miss Sushang: "I think Mr. Jiaoqiu should find a patrolling Cloud Knight right now and go ask for help!"

Lumine: "I don't think that's right, because right now we don't know how many disguised Abundance Folk are lurking beside Mr. Jiaoqiu."

Lumine: "If Mr. Jiaoqiu does that, the Cloud Knights he seeks help from will surely come to harm."

Hu Tao: "But if he doesn't seek help, Mr. Jiaoqiu has no way to escape from Hulei's side."

Hu Tao: "Sigh, Mr. Jiaoqiu can clearly move freely, yet escaping has become even harder."

Hu Tao: "Hulei actually understood this from the start, didn't he?"

Hu Tao: "That's why he let Mr. Jiaoqiu go out with peace of mind — so despicable!"

The video continues.

【The Cloud Knights should have long since noticed the situation in the Shackling Prison.】

【Will General Feixiao personally lead a team to capture Hulei?】

【For now, I'll just do as this fellow says.】

Jiaoqiu couldn't figure out what trick Hulei was playing,

and could only take it one step at a time.

He began heading toward the port.

Passing by the Star Skiff channel along the way,
