But he did not sit down, instead, he walked in front of the leader. Soon after, before anyone could react, he heavily punched the leader in the face, and before the leader could react, the second punch had already arrived.

After going back and forth for dozens of times, the leader's face had long ago turned green and purple, and blood was gradually flowing out from the corner of his mouth. Seeing how serious Li Li's hand was, even Dongfang Xiaoran and Little White, who had been together with Li Jun all day, were momentarily stunned.

"Xiaobai …" Do you think we should be nicer to Ju Luo in the future? " The uncertainty in her voice revealed her shock. This was the first time Xiao Bai agreed with Dongfang Xiaoran. It was obvious that they had never seen Xiao Bai leave like this before.

"You …" Without even saying a word, the leader of the assassins felt his heart crumble. He wanted to die, but just as he was about to bite down on the poison, he saw what was happening and punched again, sending the poison flying along with his teeth. Blood immediately filled his mouth.

"I'll give you ten rings of time. Think about whether you're willing to answer my question within ten rings. Of course, you can also refuse. However, you might not be able to bear the consequences of refusing." Li Luo shook off the blood from his leader's hand and stood up, looking down upon him with eyes full of impatience.

"Ten." He walked over to the stool and sat down, watching the leader struggle to his feet.

"Nine." The leader leaned against the wall and sat up, panting heavily. The continuous beatings had left him feeling somewhat overwhelmed.

"Seven." Li Luoluo continued to look coldly at the leader. At this point, his only choice was to tell him everything he knew. Otherwise, even if he went back to the embroidery workshop, he would still die.

"Six." The killer's leader clearly understood the stakes involved. No matter how he chose, he would not benefit from it. Therefore, he could only choose the one that was more beneficial to him.

"Five." Seeing that the leader was already reconsidering his words, a hint of a smile appeared on Li Luo's lips.

"Four." The leader carefully deliberated and decided that he would fight for his life in the end.

"Three." Luo Yuan stood up and walked over to the leader.

"I'll tell you." Since it had already fallen into their hands, even if they were to return, they would most likely be dealt with by Red Sleeves. And tonight, seeing their fighting strength, if they were to fight recklessly, even if Red Sleeves were to personally come, he would not be able to gain any advantage. It would be better to cooperate with them now and find a place to protect them.

His meaning was very clear. If the leader had spoken a lie, then he could directly finish him off and then go to the back mountain to find a remote place to bury him. No one would discover him, and even if his companions came, they would not be able to find any clues.

In the past, he had dealt with the people he had kidnapped. Although he had followed orders for all of this, after all, he was the one who had done all of this, and sometimes he even tortured these people. In his opinion, these people had their own secrets, and it was only right for them to be punished.

However, Dongfang Xiaoran and the others didn't know what he had done in the past either. As long as he temporarily lowered his head to them, and didn't have to worry about not being able to find a chance to run out in the future, then he would be alone and free no matter where he went.

As he thought of this, the leader told the truth about the matter regarding the red sleeve. Dongfang Xiaoran was outside the window and naturally heard about it as well. It was only then did he learn that the red sleeve of the brocade workshop was also a pitiful person.

Fifteen years ago, before Dongfang Xiaoran was born, there was a war between the Eastern Flower Country and the surrounding small countries. At that time, the Eastern Flower Country was not as prosperous as it is now, and the surrounding countries were in chaos, and this war was closely related to countless natural disasters. Thus, the small village that Red Sleeve grew up in was affected by the drought.

His real name was Xu Ruo, just like ordinary people, they too grew some food in their homes, and were counting on the heavens to eat. Normally, they were just so self-sufficient, and if they met with good times, they would still have some food left over, and the Xu couple had a kind nature, so when they had food left, they would give some food to the people who were wandering around to fill their stomachs.

In that year, a war broke out between the Eastern Flower Country and the neighboring countries, and Xu Ruo lived in the border area of the Eastern Flower Country, so she was unavoidably affected by the war. In this kind of environment where her heart was trembling, Xu Ruo's family could only work hard to live, they didn't want to die, so they put their only hope in the army of the Eastern Flower Country, but because they imagined the army to be too beautiful, they couldn't do anything about it.

Originally, they thought that they could protect the safety of the entire village, but they did not expect that ever since the army had arrived in the village, they had started plundering everything they had. Originally, the villagers did not have much food in their possession, but the army had taken it all away for all sorts of reasons.

Xu Ruo had personally seen these troops come to her house to take away the food that she relied on to survive, but their strength was too weak, they couldn't even fight against a fully armed army. No matter what, this army was always the Eastern Flower Country's army. They could live a peaceful life without food. As long as they could keep this army safe, so what if they had to pay for it?

When everyone thought this way, reality gave them a heavy blow.

Xu Ruo clearly remembered that it was the forty-seventh day the army arrived at the village. That day, the sky was terrifyingly dark. Even if they left the house, they would still feel like they were in the dark. Xu Ruo's father was preparing to go out hunting as usual, because the family didn't have much food left, so they had to hunt in order to survive.
