The whole family went mad, but the junior sister turned the tables and her luck soared.

Chapter 555 Rejuvenation Pill

Leader Li's expression immediately changed: "Senior, this..."

Yun Yici understood. It seemed that Xie Chunqiu, the city lord, was merely a puppet chosen by the Xie family.

The people below were not afraid of Xie Chunqiu, but rather of obeying the Xie family's orders.

This model is somewhat similar to the Huangling Domain under the control of the Xue family.

Her voice was steady: "Besides pearls, there are many other wonderful things in this world."

"Furthermore, whether you release it today or not, you have no choice but to release it."

Leader Li sensed the threat in her words, his face twitched, and he gritted his teeth, ordering his men to retreat.

Yun Yici slightly raised his aura, and the guards who were fighting with the clam demons immediately regrouped.

Leader Li stood there itching, realizing that he couldn't leave without completing his mission, and he also lacked the ability to capture the other party to fulfill his obligation.

If we stay any longer and anger the other party, we might lose our lives.

But the other party's words gave him a glimmer of hope. What if Xie Chunqiu, that good-for-nothing, really had a decision?

He had a sudden thought; when he came to arrest people earlier, he had specifically ordered his men to surround that small fishing village.

Even if these clam demons escape, they can still capture some of the old, weak, sick, and disabled to report back, so they won't return empty-handed.

Leader Li said insincerely, "Then I will return to the city lord's mansion to report. Farewell, senior."

After saying that, fearing that Yun Yici would try to keep them, the group left even faster than they had come.

With the threat gone, Xie Guanxuan could no longer hold on and collapsed to his knees, panting heavily.

A beautiful woman dressed in plain clothes rushed over to help him up: "Ah Xuan..."

This must be Xie Guanxuan's Daoist partner, Yingniang.

Hearing the commotion, the other clam maidens rushed over to check on Xie Guanxuan's injuries.

Yun Yici took out a bottle of Rejuvenation Pills from his sleeve and tossed it to Yingniang.

"This is a Rejuvenation Pill; it should be useful for him."

If she hadn't come, Xie Guanxuan would have been dragged to his death by those hyena-like guards.

With tears in her eyes, Yingniang kowtowed and said, "Thank you so much for your help, benefactor."

The other clam maidens also said, "Thank you, benefactor."

Yingniang poured out a Rejuvenation Pill. The lustrous, snow-white pill stopped in her palm, and the patterns on it made her pause in surprise.

Such a wonderful elixir...

Her heart skipped a beat, but her worry for her lover prevailed. She pretended not to see the pattern on the pill and fed the Rejuvenation Pill into Xie Guanxuan's mouth.

The elixir melted into a warm, melting liquid upon entering his mouth, and Xie Guanxuan felt that his depleted meridians were indeed showing signs of rejuvenation.

He closed his eyes slightly: "Yingniang, that's enough. Return the pills to your benefactor."

Yingniang breathed a sigh of relief when she heard him speak, and got up to return the medicine bottle to Yun Yici.

She lowered her head awkwardly: "Thank you for your help. How much does the medicine cost? We have nothing to our name right now. Could you please give us some more time?"

Yun Yici: "You can have the rest too."

"I don't want any payment, I just want to ask you a few questions."

In the time it takes to say a few words, Xie Guanxuan had almost fully recovered.

He stood up, walked to Yun Yici, and bowed: "Thank you for your kindness in giving me life, senior."

"You saved me once during the day, and now you've saved all of us. I can't accept your pills. Please ask whatever you want, senior."

Yun Yici had said before that she wouldn't help, so he didn't have any expectations.

Unexpectedly, this time we escaped thanks to the other party.

Xie Guanxuan originally intended to come in that night to gather information before making any further plans.

Little did he know that the city lord was planning to kidnap Yingniang and the others tonight and humiliate them.

Can't wait any longer.

There is no perfect solution in this world.

He impulsively tried to save someone, almost getting himself killed in the process.
