Chapter 241 - 241: Helpless Devon
Cheng Xi asked, “Then can we only wait?”
Gu Peng quickly comforted her. “Let’s make them lower their guard first. I believe they’ll be able to capture her soon.”
This was meaningless to Cheng Xi. Two hours was almost two weeks. What if Lily could not hold on until then?
At the thought of this, Cheng Xi hated Devon even more. Her eyes were filled with hatred as she said, “Help me contact the embassy in Country Y. I want to help them investigate Devon’s case.”
Since she couldn’t capture Devon now, she had to cut off all his escape routes. It would be best if everything he had disappeared.
Devon did not know about all this. He was pacing back and forth in the villa under Rong Feng’s name. Even if he thought to the point of losing hair, he did not know how to kill Rong Xuan.
He had never seen this young master before. Moreover, he heard from Rong Feng that there were many wizards living in the Rong family’s mansion. They were all recruited after Rong Xuan was kidnapped.
Master Rong believed that as long as there were enough wizards around him, no one could use magic to harm Rong Xuan.
With so many wizards surrounding Rong Xuan, he would be detected if he made a move, not to mention that he was best at concocting magic potions.
There was no chance for him to do anything. The Rong family must have checked the food and drinks repeatedly before they entered his mouth. His medicine could not reach Rong Xuan’s mouth at all.
Chen Yue sat on the sofa and looked at him. She was very annoyed. “Can you stop and not walk anymore?
Devon grabbed his hair and broke down. “Do you know what kind of difficult problem you agreed to? This is not something I can do with my ability.”
Mao Feng sat at the side without saying a word. He had already decided to fool them for as long as he could. In any case, he had nowhere to go now.
Chen Yue said coldly, “Then quickly think of a way to do this. Otherwise, you can scram back to the streets and wait for death.”
Devon really wanted to curse out loud, but the place they were living in now was all Chen Yue’s. He could only use all his strength to endure it.
Chen Yue even reminded him, “Don’t forget to concoct medicine for me. If it’s not useful, I still have a way to kill you.”
Chen Yue’s repeated mention of the potion reminded Devon of Lily. He suddenly realized that he had forgotten the most important thing. Lily relied on his potions to survive She had not drunk the potion for so long. She should have collapsed long ago.
Thinking of this, he not only smiled, but he could also use this to threaten Cheng Xi. At that time, he would not need to care about these lousy things and directly smuggle his wife and children overseas. Even if the Rong family had great ability, they would not be able to chase them out.
Lily did not know that Devon had been thinking about her. She cultivated diligently every day, wanting to improve her cultivation as soon as possible so that she could repair her soul.
Even Yunbao refused to let her play and trapped her in the house to cultivate every day. Cheng Xi’s heart ached for her daughter.
Yunbao began to temper her body with the help of Purple Eye. Because of the bloodline inheritance, her body had undergone a huge change. She had to undergo tempering to adapt to her soul.
“The remnant soul power of the ancestor attached to your body, making your soul incomparably powerful,” Purple Eye said. “You have to have a powerful body to adapt to your soul.”
Yunbao curiously asked. ‘You are also Yunbao’s ancestor. How can you still talk to Yunbao?”
Purple Eye smiled. “Because I left my remnant soul in the world when I was alive, so I can talk to you.”
“Then which ancestor of Yunbao’s are you?” Yunbao asked the question she had always wanted to ask.
Purple Eye revealed a mysterious smile and said, “I can’t tell you now, but I Imew a thousand years ago that you would be born, so I left behind a remnant soul to wait for you.”
With Yunbao’s age, it was impossible for her to understand this sentence. She
could only exclaim, “Senior is so powerful. In that case, you already knew that Yunbao would be born.”
Purple Eye was amused by Yunbao’s childish words and said, “That’s why I’ve been waiting for you to appear.”
From the moment Purple Eye sensed that she was about to die, she began to deduce the future of her clansmen. After several years of deduction, she finally saw the future.
Purple Eye saw the inevitable destruction of her clansmen in her meditation. She knew that this was not something she could change, but she still wanted to find a chance of survival.
Therefore, she used a third of her cultivation to continue calculating, wanting to know if there were any variables in her descendants..
