Chapter 688 Entrapment
"Han Xuefei is no longer in Ixdale."
"If she's not in Ixdale, then where is she?" Lu Yu asked the stranger.
"She's in the Dark Moon Ridge. That place isn't a place where ordinary humans can survive."
Lu Yu frowned and asked worriedly, "Why would she be there?"
"This matter is a little complicated, so I'll explain it simply."
Xu Yuan and Yun Zirou both leaned over and looked at him anxiously.
"More than three months ago, a group of people tried Han Xuefei's family on the grounds that they colluded with the enemy and betrayed the Freedom Federation. The evidence came from a letter from a Truth Department member who was killed by the army. It was in Han Xuefei's handwriting."
Lu Yu was shocked. This was too far-fetched and impossible to happen!
"That's impossible. I know her, and she wouldn't have done that!"
"But they've brought out sufficient evidence, and the handwriting matches. They're also from the military and wrestled this evidence from the Truth Department. Everyone believed it!"
Lu Yu was stunned for a moment and immediately realized something.
"General Yan..."
Xu Yuan took two steps back and gulped.
"No way, he has his eyes on us."
"That must be it. Those still in the ancient ruins are probably General Yan's men!" Yun Zirou stated.
"Continue." Lu Yu looked at the stranger with a hardened expression.
"Han Xuefei's family was put in prison."
"A week later, there was a rumor that Han Xuefei attacked the prison guards and killed three of them. Therefore, she was exiled to Dark Moon Ridge. That place doesn't see the sun, and barely anyone survives there."
"In order to stop her from going crazy and attacking more prison guards, she was exiled there."
Lu Yu clenched his fists, anger rising inside him.
"What about the rest of Han Xuefei's family?"
"They died in prison." The person lowered his head slightly in grief. He could tell that Lu Yu was furious and knew that their relationship was more than that of acquaintances.
"We have to save her. We can't let her stay in that place!" Yun Zirou worriedly exclaimed.
Lu Yu paused momentarily and said, "Let's go to Ixdale prison. I want to know the specifics of the situation."
Lu Yu stood up and left the building.
Xu Yuan and Yun Zirou quickly followed.
The stranger looked at Lu Yu's back and shouted, "Be careful!"
Lu Yu quickly walked out of the building and called for a taxi, and the three of them got in the car.
"Mister, go to Ixdale prison quickly!"
"That's not near; it'll cost a lot of money."
"Hurry up; I'm not short on money!"
The driver stepped on the accelerator after hearing that!
Lu Yu took out his phone and searched for Lin Zhanyu's number.
"Should I call him to tell him about our situation?" Xu Yuan asked.
"Forget it for now. Let's figure out what's going on for now."
"How dare this Yan guy mess with us! He's looking for death!" Lu Yu clenched his fists, the veins on his forehead bulging.
"We're not his match. Besides, that guy has his eyes everywhere. We can't fight him for the time being." Xu Yuan sighed.
"We'll fight sooner or later. Isn't that what he wants?"
Yun Zirou clenched her fists and said, "If Han Xuefei dies in the Dark Moon Ridge, I won't let them off!"
The car quickly left Ixdale and drove toward a small suburban road.
There were neat rows of willows on both sides of the narrow road and a large field of crops. The prison was built here, as the prisoners could usually be organized to work outside of this place.
When they arrived at the entrance of the prison, Lu Yu and the other two got out of the taxi.
"Open the door!" Lu Yu walked up to the guard and demanded.
"Please show me your identity," the guard asked.
"I'm Lu Yu. Report this to your warden. He'll come and see me."
The guard glanced at Lu Yu and felt Lu Yu's oppressive aura. He returned to the guardhouse and picked up the walkie-talkie, saying, "Please inform the warden that there's a man called Lu Yu outside who wants to see him."
"I'll relay that..."
A moment later, a voice came from the walkie-talkie.
"Let him in..."
The guard pressed the button, and the door slowly opened.
Lu Yu walked in and headed toward the main door. However, before getting close to the main entrance, he saw a man in a black windbreaker walking out with a smile.
"Mr. Lu Yu, I didn't expect you to come to my humble abode. What a pleasant surprise!"
He opened his arms and was about to hug Lu Yu.
"Tell me your name."
The warden was stunned for a moment and stood there awkwardly. "My name is Xu Lin. It's a nice name, isn't it?"
"Bring out all the files on Han Xuefei. I want to see them!"
"I'm sorry, but you don't have the authority to do so." He replied with a face full of smiles.
"If you don't take it out, you can forget about this prison being here anymore."
"I'm sorry, I don't understand."
Lu Yu's face turned gloomy, and both Xu Yuan and Yun Zirou took two steps back.
Lu Yu then took out his Water Spirit Pearl.
"Sir, if you want to use force, I advise you to forget it. You are not my match. Although you are talented, I have been cultivating for a longer time. What a pity, isn't it?"
"I'll give you one last chance to tell me everything about Han Xuefei here. Otherwise, I'll raze the entire prison to the ground!"
"Lu Yu, forget it. Han Xuefei's file records have already been listed as top secret. Neither you nor I have the right to see it. Even if the big shots of the military department came, they might not be able to see it."
The smile on Xu Lin's face disappeared as he tried to persuade Lu Yu.
Lu Yu threw out the Water Spirit Pearl; it shone and shot into the sky.
The next moment, the light spread out, and a huge figure appeared in the sky above the prison.
Boom!
The Water Spirit Dragon appeared. It flapped its wings twice, causing strong wind gusts to blow below.
Its wings were fully spread, covering the entire prison in its shadow. The once sunny prison grounds were shrouded in darkness.
Xu Lin raised his head and looked at the giant dragon in the sky. His eyes went dazed, and his mouth was wide open; he was stunned.
"What... what is this?"
"A... a giant dragon? Am I dreaming, or am I seeing things?" he muttered with a dumbfounded expression.
"If you don't want it to sit on you, then do as you're told. Otherwise, you're dead!"
"No, you still can't go in. If you go in, I'll still die!!!"
He shouted in fear, still trying to stop Lu Yu.
"It seems like there's nothing more to say."
The Water Spirit Dragon in the air lowered its head, and a ball of water gushed out of its throat, shooting toward Xu Lin.
The water ball's speed was several times faster than a bullet. It shifted into an afterimage as it shot toward Xu Lin.
The next moment, the water ball wrapped around Xu Lin's body, imprisoning him within.
Xu Lin struggled madly, but it was to no avail.
