Gongsun Subaru, Fu Yu and Xiao Bifang followed one after another.

Walking to the Octagonal Pavilion, Fu Qingyu said, "Yu'er, spread the flames to wrap around the entire lake."

"Yes." Fu Yu agreed.

The blazing fire spread from above the lake to the surrounding areas. The Pei family members who were still launching attacks fled in all directions, fearing that they would be burned by the fire if they took a step at night.

Within a few breaths, the lake was completely cleared of people.

The flames turned into a huge bowl-shaped cover, upside down on the lake.

At this time, Fu Qingyu took the ring she took off Pei Xuanping's hand and triggered the mechanism hidden in the Octagonal Pavilion.

To the northwest of the island in the center of the lake, along the edge of the land, a staircase appeared out of thin air, spreading from the shore to the bottom of the lake.

It turned out that those tribesmen who had lived in the Pei family for fifteen years and suffered from the oppression of the Pei family were placed next to his retreat and watched over by Pei Xuanping.

Thinking of the scenes she saw in Pei Xuanping's sea of ​​consciousness, Fu Qingyu couldn't help but feel the tip of her nose sore.

This staircase extends to the bottom of the lake.

The stone wall next to the stairs is engraved with runes that trap spiritual energy.

It has the same effect as those bubbles usually hidden in the lake.

Only now did Fu Qingyu know their true role. In addition to protecting the island in the middle of the lake where Pei Xuanping was, they also firmly trapped the Fu family who were imprisoned at the bottom of the lake.

Due to the effect of these runes, it is difficult to use the magic formula here, and even the simplest light body formula is difficult to use, so I have to go down the steps step by step.

Based on Gongsun Subaru's strength, he could naturally ignore these runes and go directly with Fu Qingyu, mother and son.

But neither Gongsun Subaru nor Fu Qingyu, mother and son spoke.

The three of them walked down step by step in silence.

"Da da."

Footsteps sounded.

The Fu family alchemist, who was taking a nap next to a cauldron of alchemy furnace, was instantly awakened by the sound.

The white-haired old man guarding the only high-grade alchemy furnace sighed heavily, and whispered to the people closest to him: "If there is another mission this time, don't resist, and let Atong and the others suffer less." Bar."

"But are we just going to be driven by them like this..."

"If you ask me, why don't we all wipe our necks together!"

"Hey……"

"But if we die, what will A Tong and the others do?"

An atmosphere of grief and despair spread in this secret room at the bottom of the lake.

Suddenly, a clear voice broke the silence.

"Third uncle, Uncle Liyang, Mr. Lian..."

His voice was trembling with excitement.

"Who?" A pair of dull eyes looked towards the steps.

Fu Qingyu had already stepped down the last step. When she saw the familiar tribesmen in front of her, she held back her tears and held up her hands, bending down towards the old man with a white beard in the center who was so skinny that there was only a handful of bones left.

"Third uncle, Qingyu came late and you all suffered."

The name Fu Qingyu is rarely known in the Fu family.

People are familiar with Qinglan County.

But as his grandfather's younger brother, his third uncle naturally knew this name that was only known to a few people close to him. When he saw clearly that the person in front of him took off his cloak and revealed his face hidden in the shadows, his cloudy old eyes suddenly burst out with bright light.

He stumbled forward and tried to help Fu Qingyu up with trembling hands. In the end, he was helped by Fu Qingyu to stand firm.

The third uncle looked at the girl who was supporting him in shock. Her facial features were somewhat similar to the person in his memory, but she was too young.

But he did not doubt the self-reported identity of the person in front of him. He just trembled his hands and tightly grasped the other person's sleeves, as if he was afraid that the other person would disappear if he let go.

"Qingyu, why are you here... You're not, you're not..."

The third uncle's lips trembled, but he did not say those unlucky words.

Fu Qingyu knew what he wanted to say.

Shaking his head gently, he patted the back of his third uncle's hand in a comforting manner, and Fu Qingyu said, "It's a long story. Let me take you out of here first. Have everything been packed? We'll leave now."

"Qingyu, wait a minute." The third uncle's hand holding Fu Qingyu's sleeve hurriedly tightened, "There are others, as well as children like Tong'er and Chunxi!"

Fu Qingyu nodded heavily.

Having read Pei Xuanping's memories, she naturally knew that there was another mechanism next to the secret room at the bottom of the lake.

Fu Qingyu let go of the hand holding her third uncle, walked straight to the stone wall at the deepest part of the secret room, and raised the ring that had fallen off Pei Xuanping's hand.

Seeing the ring, several members of the Fu clan who were nearby shivered subconsciously, and looked at Fu Qingyu with renewed vigilance in their eyes.

Fu Qingyu didn't explain at this time. She knew that they were already frightened.

Direct the light emitted from the ring to the runes on the wall, and hear a few clicks. The stone wall descends, and torture racks hidden behind the wall appear in front of you.

There were thirteen racks in total, with thirteen people tied to them.

There are only seven alive, and the six dead have used some kind of potion to keep their bodies from rotting. The corpse at the end has been dead the longest, more than ten years ago, and is the same age as the six corpses. He looked at the youngest one.

Those who are alive have long been numb.

Even though the wall was lowered, there was still no response. It was when the iron chain tied to the body was cut off and it fell to the ground with a "clang" that the boy who was closest to the body among the seven people reacted.

He raised his head and looked blankly at Fu Qingyu who had cut off the iron chain, and then looked at his third uncle not far behind Fu Qingyu, whose face was already full of tears, "Third uncle?"

"Hey." The third uncle's voice was still trembling, but the previous feeling of despair was no longer there. "My child, we are finally saved."

Looking at the pair of dead eyes, hope regenerated.

Fu Qingyu finally couldn't help but her eyes were red with them.

There are not many things in the secret room. The storage magic weapons on the third uncle and others have been taken away when they were imprisoned here. There is not even a change of clothes around them, only a cauldron of alchemy furnace for each person, and A few are placed on the shelf, spiritual plants that are often used in alchemy.

Fu Qingyu took out a storage bag and handed it to her third uncle. She collected everyone's alchemy furnaces first, and then grabbed a few stacks of spiritual talismans for her third uncle to share.

When leaving, Gongsun Subaru did not go up the long stairs, but directly took everyone into the air.

The outline of the spiritual boat hidden among the clouds appeared.

"Yu'er, take them back to the spirit boat first."

"Okay." Fu Yu nodded and led the clan members into the spirit boat.

The third uncle who was walking at the end looked tense, "Qingyu, where are you going?"

"I'm going to avenge everyone."

As the words fell, the two figures shrouded in cloaks disappeared into the air.

Not long after, screams rang out repeatedly from the Pei family land where the flames had just extinguished below.
