“No, I need to save her!” Ye Mo said as he started heading outside. However, he was stopped by Yao Qingyun.
“No, you can’t,” Yao Qingyun said.
“Can you bear to watch on as your daughter is executed?” Ye Mo turned around and questioned furiously.
Ye Mo was clenching his fists and teeth tightly. Before execution, she had to stay in the Luosha Prison for a month. Ye Mo could not even begin to imagine what had happened to her during that one month.
“She has already been identified as someone in the Martial Faction. Anyone trying to save her will be immediately executed as well. Any attempts to save her with less than the full power of the Martial Faction would be fruitless,” Yao Qingyun let go of Ye Mo and explained.
“I’ll go look for Master Xuan Ji. She might have a way to rescue Senior Sister Yao Yue.”
Ye Mo immediately rushed over to Xuan Ji Sub-League. In a flash, he arrived and immediately charged into the main hall.
Xuan Ji was seated on her throne, resting, with her eyes closed.
“Master Xuan Ji, I beg you to help rescue Senior Sister Yao Yue,” Ye Mo said with his hands clasped the moment he entered the hall.
Xuan Ji did not open her eyes and spoke with complete indifference, “That girl has been too reckless. Not even I can help her now.” Evidently, she was already aware of what was going on .
“Master Xuan Ji, if you make an appearance, perhaps the empress will show mercy,” Ye Mo said as he recalled the scroll he saw.
“You saw the decree as well?” Xuan Ji opened her eyes. With astonishment on her face, she continued, “Are you the one who had killed Huang Shihu?”
“Yes, I am the one who had killed him. If you can make an appearance, I am willing to exchange my life for hers.”
Xuan Ji’s heart throbbed when she heard this. In fact, these words sounded familiar.
“The empress has already issued the imperial divine decree. Nobody can change it. Not even I cannot do something this risky for the sake of Yao Yue.” Then, Xuan Ji shut her eyes and continued, “If you want to rescue Yao Yue, there is a way. But you only have a 10% chance of succeeding.”
“What do I need to do?” Ye Mo quickly asked.
“It is impossible to rescue her during the execution itself. Breaking her out of the prison is also impossible. The only way is to get imprisoned yourself,” Xuan Ji explained.
“Imprisoned?” Ye Mo cried out in alarm before he continued, “Do you mean that I should get into Luosha Prison before escaping with her? But Luosha Prison is a place where elite fighters are imprisoned. I am just a puny Energy Shaping Realm warrior. How is it possible that I can escape with Senior Sister Yao Yue?”
“Nothing is impossible. I had once been imprisoned and was also rescued by a brat like you. Not everyone at the Luosha Prison is of the Emperor Faction. I will only say this much. Whether you can rescue her or not, it will depend on your luck.”
Xuan Ji then stood up and after stretching, she leisurely walked away.
“Get into the prison! Get into the prison!” Ye Mo only thought about it for a bit before he decided that no matter what, he had to rescue Yao Yue.
Ye Mo left Xuan Ji Sub-League and rushed straight to Divine Wind Pavilion. When Elder Feng heard what Ye Mo was planning to do, he immediately objected to it.
“Disciple, do you know what entering Luosha Prison means? That is a path of absolute death. Although I am not willing to see Yao Yue being executed either, this is something that can’t be undone. Just stay still. There might be a miracle still.” Elder Feng patted Ye Mo’s shoulder and continued, “Never act rashly. Your only focus now should be cultivation until you reach True Energy Realm. Only then will you be a real genius. Wait. There will be a miracle.” Elder Feng left after speaking his mind.
“Ling’er, I will definitely try saving Yao Yue. Are you with me on this?” Ye Mo had already come to a decision. Yao Yue had only been imprisoned because she had taken the blame for him. Even if he had to die, he would still try saving her.
“Brother Ye Mo, don’t see me as a coward.” Ling’er had a look of contempt on her face as she continued, “But for safety reasons, you should first alter your appearance. That way, things will be safer.”
Although Ling’er was only a seal, she was a seal with intelligence that was far above a human’s intelligence. In fact, she also longed for the multitude of emotions humans could experience.
“Changing my appearance? Okay, I’ll do it right now.” Ye Mo spent a short time refining a few Face Change Pills. The additional pills would serve as a backup after he got into the prison.
He took the pill and once again transformed into a handsome youth. His brows, however, were still knitted together.
Under the moonlight, a black figure streaked through the air and headed straight towards the Transportation Magical Formation.
Next, an arrow whizzed towards Ye Mo, forcing him to slant his body to evade it.
“Who is it?” Ye Mo’s eyes turned vigilant as he started studying his surroundings.
Someone was ambushing him as he was trying to leave. Was this Ye Changsheng’s man? Ye Mo discarded this thought as he shook his head. Ye Changsheng was not one to do something this stupid. He was the type who would only plot behind the scenes. Then, another black figure dashed forth in the distant.
“Follow the black figure and see what’s going on,” Ling’er suggested.
Ye Mo immediately pursued the black figure. In the darkness of night, two black figures run through the night sky. Ye Mo found that he was unable to catch up to the other person.
“Use a Body Seal!” Ling’er said as she immediately slapped two seals on Ye Mo’s legs. Ye Mo’s speed rose rapidly as he started catching up with the black figure.
Just as Ye Mo was about to catch up, the black figure vanished into thin air. At this time, Ye Mo was already in the middle of a bamboo forest. The night breeze was blowing, making the bamboos swayed left and right.
Swish!
Yet another streak shot towards Ye Mo. However, Ye Mo was able to dodge this attack as well.
“Who is it? If you have the guts, show your face!” Ye Mo yelled as the dragon spear appeared in his hand. That black figure was rather strong and seemed hostile. Therefore, Ye Mo did not dare to be careless.
“Brother Ye Mo, look at that bamboo. An arrowhead is there, and on it is a piece of paper,” Ling’er said.
Sure enough, the arrow shot at Ye Mo earlier had a piece of paper attached to it. Ye Mo looked around and when he confirmed that nobody was nearby, he walked over and retrieved the paper.
“To enter the Luosha Prison, kill Cao Sanshi. He is a Luosha Emissary at Luosha Prison and is in charge of the prison keys. Every three days, Cao Sanshi visits the Spring Night Tower. After killing him, take the key with a luosha design on it from his Dimensional Bracelet and hide it on your person. Do not hide it in your Dimensional Bracelet. Just sit and wait for the Imperial Guards to arrest you.”
After reading the paper, Ye Mo looked around. He came to a conclusion that the black figure earlier was definitely an expert fighter. That person had come out with a plan for him and even knew about the internal affairs of Luosha Prison.
“Who was that person?” Ye Mo was curious.
“It doesn’t matter. In any case, that person was helping you. Just do as the paper says.”
