Yu Yue was the first to ask, "Do you have any preliminary plans regarding escaping from the city?"    

    

Shett, who was sitting at the table, shook her head.    

    

"No, we only have a few days to escape. We have used up all of our energy in order to escape the pursuit and search for survival resources. We really don't have the extra energy to think about how to escape. Moreover, we know too little about this city. We don't even have a map... It's really hard to make a move in this area."    

    

Yu Yue could recall their situation over the past few days through Shett's words. It was probably because they were hiding and escaping everywhere. They were being chased everywhere, and at the same time, they were also collecting basic resources like food.    

    

This was truly a trial. He sighed with emotion. Then, he took out a scroll from his bosom and laid it flat on the table.    

    

"This is... the map of the city." Shett looked at the map and showed a slightly happy expression. With the map, they could better plan their escape route. Otherwise, they would be like headless flies that would run around randomly.    

    

little Irene sat in Yu Yue's arms and stuck her head out to look at the map curiously.    

    

This map was given to her by Uncle Sun Yang. It was very clearly marked. Basically, every shop in the streets and alleys was marked in great detail.    

    

Yu Yue said, "That is to say, during these few days of escape, you used the elven emblem to detect that I was in Qiluo City. That is why you thought of kidnapping me?"    

    

"That's right. I have sensed you since you entered the city. I have been thinking about how to meet you. After escaping, I have been moving in your direction. And you've been staying in a castle for the past few days. Little Irene and I will hide in a hidden place. We will only act after you leave the castle."    

    

" Can you think of any way to escape from here? Or what kind of magic can you use to escape from here? "    

    

Shett shook her head. "Unfortunately, no. If I was at my peak, I could still escape. I could even break out of the city gate. But my strength was temporarily suppressed because I was drugged by those despicable humans. Right now, I can no longer use advanced elven magic to help us escape. Otherwise, I wouldn't have used such a strategy. I'm threatening you with the risk of exposing my identity."    

    

Yu Yue frowned slightly. "I see. That would be difficult... The defense line of the city gate must be the most secure in the entire castle. They will not let you out of the city easily. If you act rashly, you might be caught in one fell swoop."    

    

The two of them sat there in silence.    

    

After sitting there for an hour without any clues, Yu Yue finally sighed and stood up.    

    

"How about this, it's getting late. This is indeed a difficult problem. I will go back and slowly think about it. You two will stay here for the next few days."    

    

Shett also knew that it was already very late today. "Okay, then you go back first."    

    

When Yu Yue walked to the door, he suddenly realized that he had forgotten a major problem.    

    

He turned around and looked at Shett and Irene. "Oh right, you haven't eaten your dinner yet, right?"    

    

little Irene first nodded and said, "Not yet." She looked very expectant. Seeing her like this, Yu Yue also knew that she was definitely hungry.    

    

Yu Yue said, "Then wait for me. I'll bring you guys some food later."    

    

After taking a gold coin from Shett, he left the room.    

    

He bought some warm food from the street and returned to the room.    

    

After opening the door, little Irene cheered and rushed over. She took the food from Yu Yue and looked at the box with anticipation.    

    

"Wow! It was barbecued meat and pie, as well as some fruits! These are apples... orange and bananas! "    

    

little Irene let out an excited voice. It seemed like she had not eaten good food for a long time.    

    

Shett also unconsciously swallowed her saliva when she saw the food box. But then she noticed Yu Yue staring at her. Her face turned slightly red, and she walked forward to take the lunch box from little Irene's hands and made it on the table.    

    

After placing the food on the table, colorful food appeared on the table. Although it was a little cold, it still emitted a tempting fragrance. Little Irene impatiently sat on the chair and waved her chopsticks to start wolfing down the food.    

    

"Don't eat so fast. You will choke and eat slowly. No one will snatch it from you..." Shett's voice was gentle as she reached out her hand to wipe the rice grains that were stuck to her mouth because of the coarse manner of eating.    

    

This pulled little Irene back from the temptation of delicious food and she put down her chopsticks in embarrassment. "Sorry, sister Shett. Come and eat together."    

    

"It's fine. You can eat first."    

    

little Irene shook her head and got down from the chair. She walked to Shett's side and picked up her arm. She looked up and said very seriously, "Sister Shett, you have been protecting me for so long. It should be time to rest. Quickly come and eat with me!"    

    

Shett could only be brought to the seat by little Irene's arms. Under little Irene's coercion, she lifted her chopsticks and picked up a vegetable to eat.    

    

Only then did little Irene nod her head with a satisfied smile. She once again returned to her seat and started to eat.    

    

Yu Yue looked at this warm scene and the corner of his mouth revealed a gratified smile. He gently opened the door and prepared to leave without disturbing them.    

    

Just as he was about to step out of the room, a voice gently brushed by his ear like a gentle breeze.    

    

"Thank you."    

    

Yu Yue was stunned. He turned around and saw that the voice belonged to Shett.    

    

She did not look at Yu Yue anymore. She raised her chopsticks and ate quietly. She seemed to have done it on purpose to fill her mouth with food.    

    

Although little Irene was also eating, her eyes kept glancing at Shett and Yu Yue, revealing a crafty look in her eyes.    

    

Yu Yue smiled slightly, "This is what I should do."    

    

Then he stepped out of the room and closed all the warm lights in the room.    

    

...    

    

After leaving the Lucky Inn, the sky had turned extremely dark, and the stars were blinking in the sky.    

    

He also followed the path back to Old Sun Inn.    

    

Because he hadn't returned to the inn for some time, Sun Yang was very happy to see Yu Yue, so he pulled him to eat with him.    

    

Although he bought food for Shett and the others, he actually didn't eat. He ate with Sun Yang and the other waiters in the inn. This meal was very sumptuous, no different from a gathering.    

    

After the meal, Yu Yue returned to his room. It was already very late, and the moon hung high in the sky. He didn't turn on the lights, and just sat on the bed, looking up at the starry sky.    

    

Although his movements were deep, his heart was filled with confusion. He had no idea how to send the elves out of the city.    

    

After thinking for a long time, he did not come up with anything. He suddenly thought of the Summoned Beast that he had just received, Hilo of the Blood Clan.    

    

After subduing him, he hadn't summoned him. Because at this moment, he had no thoughts in his mind. He raised his hand and a ball of magic surged out.    

    

The blood-red light illuminated the entire space.
