Ye Haochuan quickly flew back to the location of the Heaven Escape Bead, only to find that Li Yun was the only person inside, and she was tied up.
"What happened?" Ye Haochuan untied Li Yun and asked with great confusion.
According to his assumptions, Li Yun should have helped Xierui escape, given her past behavior. But why was Li Yun tied up here instead?
"Sister Rui'er helped Sister Xierui escape. No matter how much I tried to persuade them, they wouldn't listen to me," Li Yun said with a sense of grievance.
Her intention in persuading Xierui wasn't truly to stop her from escaping, but she felt it unwise to escape only to be caught by Ye Haochuan again and tortured.
"Rui'er?" A surge of frustration welled up within Ye Haochuan.
It was because Rui'er was present that Ye Haochuan relaxed his guard over Xierui and did not lock the Heaven Escape Bead to prevent anyone from entering or exiting.
