However, at this critical moment, an urgent voice was heard, and then, a heroic figure stopped Seth.
It's Thea.
"Thea?"
Seth frowned, very unhappy, and said coldly: "What are you doing? Get out of the way!"
This Yue Feng is so arrogant and doesn't take himself and other major families seriously, so he must be killed.
At the same time, everyone around McGrady also frowned.
"Lord City Lord!" Thea bit her lips and said anxiously: "Don't be impulsive. The law of the principality stipulates that to execute a prisoner, the people need to be summoned and the execution is carried out in public. If you kill him here, you will violate the law of the principality.
It’s law.”
When saying this, Thea looked at Yue Feng intentionally or unintentionally, feeling anxious.
She believed that Yue Feng was framed, so how could she watch him be executed?
call!
Hearing this, Seth was silent for a moment, then put away his sword and said angrily: "Come on, take Yue Feng into prison first, and tomorrow morning, gather the people in the city and publicly execute him."
To be honest, Seth wanted to kill Yue Feng immediately, but Thea was right. The law of the principality stipulated that no one could use the death penalty privately. As the city lord, he could not knowingly commit the crime.
Wow!
Soon, several soldiers came over and escorted Yue Feng out of the manor.
At this moment, Yue Feng secretly breathed a sigh of relief and glanced at Thea gratefully.
At this time, Yue Feng never expected that Thea would help him at the last critical moment.
After Yue Feng was taken away, all the major families also left one after another, but only Maddie stayed.
"Lolita!"
Watching everyone leave, Maddie showed a smile, walked up to Lolita and said to please: "The old man is gone. People cannot be resurrected after death, so don't be too sad!"
When he said this, McGrady looked sad, but his heart was filled with joy.
Haha... Yue Feng has been ruined and has no worries now.
Lolita breathed a sigh of relief and said slowly: "Maddie, thank you for coming today to expose Yue Feng's mask. Otherwise, I would have been kept in the dark by him."
When it comes to Yue Feng, Lolita feels disgust from the bottom of her heart.
"No, no!" McGrady waved his hand and said matter-of-factly: "The old man is also my elder, and it is what I should do."
As she spoke, Maddie leaned a little closer: "Lolita, you should understand my feelings for you. When Yue Feng is executed tomorrow, can you marry me? The old man is gone, and you need a man to take care of you.
, don’t worry, I will definitely treat you well all my life.”
At this time, McGrady's eyes were filled with anticipation.
However, Lolita shook her head: "I'm sorry Maddie, I don't want to talk about marriage for the time being. Even if I want to get married, I have to stay filial piety for my grandfather for one year!"
One year of filial piety?
Hearing this, Maddie was a little disappointed, but she still nodded hypocritically and said: "Lolita, you are so filial. Okay, I will wait for you for one year."
One year is not a long time, I can afford to wait.
Afterwards, Maddie chatted with Lolita for a few more words and left happily.
...
At night, Pearl City, in the guard prison.
In the gloomy and dark cell, Yue Feng was tied there, unable to move.
Across the cell door, listening to the sound of sea water in the distance, Yue Feng looked sad. He had been whipped dozens of times during the day, and his wounds were burning and painful, and his acupuncture points were sealed by Yanhong.
However, Yue Feng did not sit still and wait for death. Instead, he gritted his teeth and endured the pain, secretly mobilizing his internal strength and trying to break through the acupuncture points.
call!
Finally, after more than an hour of hard work, the acupuncture points were opened.
"squeak--"
Before Yue Feng could breathe a sigh of relief, he suddenly heard footsteps coming from outside the cell door. The footsteps were very light. Then, the cell door was gently pushed open through a gap, and a charming figure quickly flashed in.
Damn it, it couldn’t be Maddie who secretly sent someone to assassinate him!
At this moment, Yue Feng was startled and quickly looked towards the door. After seeing clearly who was coming, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Then they saw that the person coming was wearing a knight's armor, with exquisite facial features, charming curves, and a heroic spirit all over his body. It was Thea.
"Thea, why are you here?" Yue Feng was very surprised and couldn't help but ask.
Thea did not answer directly, but came over, first looked at Yue Feng's wounds, and then scolded: "Yue Feng, why didn't you listen to my advice during the day? If you have to fight with the city lord and the major families, you
Can only one person be their opponent?"
When she said this, Thea was full of accusations, but there was a bit of worry in her eyes.
call!
Yue Feng breathed a sigh of relief and said with a wry smile: "You took the risk to come over to see me just to accuse me? You don't have a crush on me, right?"
Hearing this, Thea's delicate face turned red instantly, and she said angrily: "Shut up, I'm almost dead, you're still so immoral!" After saying that, she quickly helped Yue Feng untie the chain.
"Now is the time when the prison is most relaxed. I will take you out of Pearl City later and don't come back again!" Thea said seriously.
Hearing this, Yue Feng felt warm in his heart and was very moved, but he still couldn't help but said: "You want to let me go?"
call!
Thea took a breath, and there was a bit of complexity in her eyes: "That brute man's subordinate, the man named Amon, I investigated him yesterday. He was bribed by Maddie. It's just that I don't have enough evidence, but I believe it."
, you are being slandered!”
As she spoke, Thea changed her tone: "The city lord has a close relationship with the Maiwei family and has close contacts with other families. It is really unwise for you to conflict with them today."
"I let you go tonight not because I like you, but because of justice, do you understand?"
After hearing what Thea said, Yue Feng fell silent, and felt a bit of admiration for Thea in his heart.
Although this female knight is not very strong, her sense of justice is really rare.
With emotion, Yue Feng couldn't help but said: "You let me go, what will you do?"
Thea smiled lightly: "Don't worry, no one saw me when I came in. Time is running out, let's leave quickly!"
After the words fell, Thea took Yue Feng and left the prison.
The guard prison in Pearl City was not very big. Soon, Yue Feng and Thea arrived at the city gate.
Um?
When he was about to leave the city, Yue Feng suddenly stopped!
Yue Feng clearly felt that there was vague movement in the direction outside the city gate!
Seeing Yue Feng suddenly stop, Thea couldn't help but asked curiously: "Why don't you leave?" After saying that, she followed Yue Feng's eyes and looked at him. At this sight, her delicate body suddenly trembled!
I saw a lot of people standing quietly on the roadside outside the city gate, ready to go.
The leader, wearing a gorgeous robe and a sinister expression, is the city lord Seth!
"Thea!"
At this time, Seth's eyes fell on Thea, and his tone was full of sinisterness: "You didn't let me kill Yue Feng during the day, and I felt something was wrong. It seems that I really guessed it right. You and this Yue Feng are really related.
Awesome!"
Said, Seth's eyes darkened and he shouted: "Thea, let the felon go privately, do you know your guilt?"
Too bad!
Thea's delicate face looked a bit pale and panicked.
At this time, Thea never thought that Seth had already targeted her.
Yue Feng stood aside, his face seemed calm, but he was secretly worried!
