: Giving them a choice
Fatty Qu answered Sima You Yues question without thinking, The slave ring contains the mark of the Power. Every slave ring is different, and the removal method is different too. Thats why the best way isnt to look for me, but to look for the key.
Ol Wu was tossed outside the large palace along with the rest of the Brave Moon Sect. when he saw Sima You Yue look at him, he almost fainted from fright.
The key? She smiled in question.
Sima You Yue felt like her smile was rather charming, but Ol Wu felt as if it he had seen a devil.
I dont have the key. Ol Wu said. When he saw her expression fall, he was so afraid that she would burn off his other leg in anger that he quickly explained, The slave rings key really isnt with me. Im merely the person in charge of putting it on them. Im not in charge of taking it off.
Then where is the key?
In the hands of tenth elder.
Which one is tenth elder?
He isnt here.
Where is he?
He returned to the sect.
Is he the strongest of you all?
The tenth elder truly is the most powerful of us all.
Why did he go back?
We have to fix a date to send all the crystals and precious stones that we dig out back to the sect.
When will he be back?
He was unwilling to speak, but Sima You Yue glanced at his right leg and he immediately turned obedient.
They usually go for five days.
Five days. This meant that this was the third day?
Will they usually contact this place? Sima You Lin asked.
They will. We have to send word to them everyday. When tenth elder is around, hes in charge, but when hes not, Im the one who has to do it. Ol Wu did not dare mess around when he saw the look with which Sima You Yue was giving him.
Then you have to send word to them for these three days. Sima You Lin said, If something is off about the message you send, you can kiss your right leg goodbye. It will also be slower than it was the previous day.
I- I wont. Ol Wu quickly lowered his head to hide the look in his eyes.
These people wouldnt know they usually reported things here. If he used this way to ask the sect for help, they would have a chance at survival if tenth elder came back with reinforcements!
He could feel Sima You Yues gaze and the little plan he had immediately died out. She would definitely not give him the opportunity to send out the message.
As expected, Sima You Yue got a few managers together and separately asked them how they usually sent back word.
This way, even if he asked for help, he would be burnt away completely long before tenth elder managed to arrive with reinforcements.
As such, he had no choice but to send back word in the same way as he did before.
Then we will stand guard here. Sima You Qi said.
Okay.
The slaves that just entered were standing at the city gate as they watched the tables turn with confusion. They had no idea what was going on.
The people who were standing at the side watching the drama unfold, explained the situation that happened from yesterday to today. It was only then that they understood that someone had come to save them.
It was in spite of the fact that these people had been tricked into coming here in the beginning.
Hope flashed in the eyes of some of them, while others didnt believe that Sima You Yue and the others would truly be able to rescue everyone. They were merely digging a little hole in their mountain of a problem.
Furthermore, little things like this would happen from time to time. Yet, nobody had ever succeeded. Instead, the group that escaped would be beaten up severely.
Following this, Sima You Yue let Jina Huan head to the teleportation array in the Brave Moon sect to do some work. She intentionally wanted him to spread word of how he had been sent here by the teleportation array. It started to spread a little seed of doubt.
Inside here, there were many smart ones who had long since figured out how they ended up here. They knew that the Brave Moon Sect had swindled them. However, there were also those who didnt realise it. It was only when they heard what Jing Huan said that they finally realised what had happened.
Those who believed that Sima You Yue and the others would be able to succeed and rescue them, immediately started to plan how they would definitely start a scene once they returned to their sects.
Since youve already gotten them under control, you should release them. It was unknown who shouted this, but the others followed suit, begging Sima You Yue and the others to release them so they could leave right now.
Sima You Yue was not in a rush to speak and she waited until the class had quieted down before she spoke slowly, If you want to leave right now, we will not stop you. However, you all have the slave rings around your neck right now. Even if you go out, you will be branded a slave. Furthermore, the slave rings have tracking devices. You will just end up right back at the West Coast Desert.
Such a big event has happened here, and the Brave Moon Sect is sure to send men to check things out. When the time comes, they will surely use your slave rings to locate you. Dont say that we didnt warn you. Alright. Ive said my peace. There are no guards around the city gates now, those who want to leave now may do so.
When Sima You Yue finished speaking, a few people came out from inside the group and really ran towards the city gates. They didnt believe that Sima You Yue and the rest would really be able to rescue them, which was why they chose to believe in themselves.
