His tone was slightly hesitant.

A glimmer of hope flashed in Duanmu Ying's eyes.

She knew she had to persuade the head of the Lü family.

Otherwise, neither she nor her child would have escaped unscathed.

"I promise,

My children will also inherit my abilities.

"Duanmu Ying's voice was full of determination,"

Please let me go.

I will keep my promise.

The head of the Lü family remained silent for a moment.

"Okay, I believe your promise."

But you must leave here immediately.

The moment they left the dungeon,

A figure suddenly appeared.

They stood in front of them.

The Lu family head's expression immediately turned serious.

He couldn't help but grip the longsword in his hand tighter.

"Patriarch Lü,"

I won't let you get away with this so easily.

A young and handsome figure appeared before them.

It was Lü Ci...

“Lu Ci,

Why are you doing this to yourself?

The Lü family head's voice carried a hint of reproach.

You should understand,

The value of Duanmu Ying to us.

Lü Ci shook his head without wavering:

I cannot agree with your approach.

Father.

No matter how valuable she is to us

We also cannot ignore humanity and compassion.

Let her go.

Let her and her child leave safely.

The head of the Lü family frowned even more deeply:

“Lu Ci,

Don't you understand?

Is this a major event concerning the future of the Lü family?

We cannot let her off the hook out of momentary sympathy.

"

A resolute glint flashed in Lü Ci's eyes:

"I see,

Father.

But I choose to believe in the brilliance of humanity.

Instead of blindly pursuing power and profit.

Patriarch Lü sighed deeply.

He knew he could no longer persuade Lü Ci.

He looked at his son in front of him.

My heart is filled with helplessness and regret.

"Are you willing to betray your family for your so-called humanitarian principles?"

The Lü family head's voice was filled with disappointment.

Are you willing to give up your responsibilities and mission?

"We must not let them succeed."

The two worked together seamlessly.

Like a pair of tacit comrades-in-arms,

They cooperated in offense and defense.

They repelled wave after wave of enemies.

The enemies in the dungeon seem never to stop.

Their numbers are increasing.

This gradually made the head of the Lü family and Lü Ci feel powerless.

"Who sent these people?"

Lu Ci was panting.

Beads of sweat had already formed on his forehead.

"I have no idea,

But their goal was clear.

The head of the Lü family frowned.

"We must get rid of them as soon as possible."

Lü Ci nodded.

The only hope now is to end this battle as soon as possible.
