Lin Bai’s heart skipped a beat. He suddenly had a bad premonition. He quickly looked at the place where Fool Li was. As expected, there was no one there.
He Qingyuan’s deep voice sounded with a hint of ill intent. “Are you looking for him?”
As expected, Fool Li was being restrained by his spiritual power and couldn’t move at all.
“You’re so despicable! You ambushed a fool when you couldn’t catch me. I finally have some insight into the morals of the Alchemist Associatio
Lin Bai instantly reacted. He Qingyuan’s attack just now seemed to be powerful and mighty, but in fact, it was a diversion. The purpose was to distract him and then wait for an opportunity to attack Fool Li.
Because his whole attention was attracted by the golden light, he was careless and really fell into the trap. He was tricked by He Qingyuan, so Fool Li was caught by him.
He Qingyuan smiled coldly. “How can I be compared to you when it comes to being despicable? First, you waited for an opportunity to sneak into the City Lord’s Estate, then you ambushed the City Lord and the Vice City Lord. Now, hurry up and confess.”
Lin Bai could not be bothered to argue with him. Even if he told everyone that the City Lord was the one who was possessed by the demon, no one would believe him. Instead, they would think that he was deliberately trying to sow discord.
“If you want to accuse people, it’s very easy to make up crimes.” Lin Bai’s gaze was cold as he thought of a countermeasure, He wanted to stall for time. After all, he didn’t want to implicate Fool Li.
“Fool Li is also a member of your Alchemist Association. I didn’t expect that you would be so vicious. You actually caught him and wanted to threaten me. Do you really think that I will listen to you? He’s just a fool. It has nothing to do with me.”
He didn’t know if this sentence had any effect, but there was a commotion in the crowd. He Qingyuan looked around and the commotion quickly calmed down. He could see Lin Bai’s intentions.
Only by acting as if he didn’t care would Fool Li be safer. Otherwise, if Lin Bai was also captured, both of their fates wouldn’t be any better.
“You think I will fall for your trick? You’re too naive. You two have a close relationship, even at this time. Who do you think you have no relationship with?”
“That’s right! You probably started to plan in the dark with Fool Li before. Fool Li is the mole you planted in the Alchemist Association so that you can cooperate with him from the inside.”
It had to be said that some people’s imaginations were still quite wild. They had arranged for the crimes of Lin Bai and Fool Li completely.
Hearing their words, Lin Bai felt that it was extremely laughable. “In order to frame someone, you guys really did everything you could. If it was me, then forget it. If a fool is said to be so scheming by you guys, then is he still considered a fool?”
These words could not be refuted. After all, Fool Li had been a fool for a long time. To put it bluntly, he was just a stupid teammate. Even if he helped, it would also be a hindrance. He would probably be a lot of trouble.
“Perhaps you controlled his mind and let him help you carry out your orders.”
While Lin Bai was arguing with the others, he was waiting for an opportunity to attack. He wanted to save Fool Li, but it was too late. His figure flashed, leaving an afterimage in the air as he approached He Qingyuan at lightning speed.
However, He Qingyuan was already prepared. He grabbed Fool Li and leaped into the air, dodging Lin Bai’s attack.

Lin Bai did not expect that this old fox, He Qingyuan, would be so cunning that he had no way of attacking him.
He Qingyuan smiled rather viciously. He decided to end the battle as soon as possible in case something unexpected happened. “If you really want to save him, I advise you not to act rashly.”
He looked at Fool Li with a complicated expression. In the end, he made up his mind. His fingertip condensed into a light blade and landed on Fool Li’s neck.
The light blade was sharp and instantly drew a thin line of blood.
“Otherwise, he might be beheaded in the next second.”
As expected, Lin Bai did not move anymore. He was anxious, but he could not show it on his face because this would put him and Fool Li in an even more dangerous situation.
He could only ask calmly, “What do you want?”
He Qingyuan was not so easily fooled. From the previous actions of Lin Bai and Fool Li, he knew that their relationship was not ordinary.
He said coldly, “I will not be fooled by you. You seal your spirit vein and cut off your spirit energy, and I will let Fool Li go! Otherwise, I can not guarantee that his head will still be on his neck next time.”
He wanted Lin Bai to seal his own spirit vein and spirit energy was simply cutting off all his chances of survival and waiting for everyone to come and capture him, Lin Bai absolutely wouldn’t agree. He gnashed his teeth and said, “This is a grudge between us. If you have the ability, don’t drag others into
it”

He Qingyuan stared coldly at Lin Bai, his gaze as if he was looking at a dead person. “You’re threatening the safety of the capital. This means that it’s not a personal grudge between us, but the hatred of everyone.”
“Either seal your spiritual power, or collect his corpse.”
He Qingyuan’s words were merciless and cruel to the extreme. Lin Bai believed that he really dared to do so, not to mention that he was just a fool. There was no other use for him in the Alchemist Association. He Qingyuan did not need to be cautious at all.
However, if he was really captured, it would be even harder to escape than ascending to the heavens. Moreover, the outcome of Fool Li might not necessarily be any better.
The atmosphere immediately fell into a stalemate.
He Qingyuan was a little impatient. He was worried that things might change if he waited too long. He would not give Lin Bai so much time to think. “Have you thought about it? I’m not patient enough. If you can’t make a decision, then I’l help you.”
After saying that, the light blade moved closer to Fool Li’s neck. The blood line had also deepened quite a bit. The atmosphere was extremely quiet. Everyone looked at Lin Bai..
