Upon seeing Roland's fearful face, Jiang Li sneered:

"Don't hide it, I saw what you have in your hand!"

"What?" Roland was stunned, with an incredulous expression on her face. How did this man find out?

Jiang Li didn't give her any time to think.

"Golden Dragon's Roar!"

Without wasting any more words on this cunning and evil woman, a resounding dragon's roar pierced the air!

Roland's strength was far inferior to Jiang Li's, and as the dragon's roar resounded, the chaotic sound waves ravaged her mind.

Roland's eyes rolled back, and she collapsed, falling into a deep coma. It seemed she wouldn't wake up for several hours at least.

A small button slipped from Roland's hand and fell to the ground.

This woman indeed had a backup plan. It seemed she had planted other explosives as well, Jiang Li thought, with an expression that showed he had expected as much.

Meanwhile, the three people beside him were already starry-eyed.

"Chen... Chenxiang, you're so cool! What kind of strength do you have? Are you a Saint?" Elaine was ecstatic, looking at Jiang Li as if he were an idol, while Wei and Jie had the same expression. Killing two Transcendent Late Stage experts in an instant and easily seeing through Roland's scheme, this was too powerful.

Why do I always seem to be admired wherever I go? Could it be that I really have the talent to be an idol? Maybe I should practice for two and a half years?

Jiang Li paid no attention to the gazes of the three people, and instead asked:

"How should we handle these three? I don't mind, it's up to you."

Upon hearing Jiang Li's words, Elaine and the others fell silent.

"I feel like you all have a lot of stories. Anyway, tie them up first, and then slowly tell me what happened."

Elaine nodded silently.

Soon, two big men, along with Roland, were bound with special alloy chains.

"Alright, tell me, what happened from the beginning when we first met. I feel like you all have some stories."

Elaine lowered her head deeply towards Jiang Li as if she had made a decision:

"Although it may seem like asking for too much, please, Chenxiang, help us! We have... we have nowhere else to go..."

Elaine's voice trembled, tears filling her lovely face.

Meanwhile, Wei and Jie also lowered their heads, their expressions sincere.

Jiang Li helped Elaine up, wiped the tears from her face, and gazed into her bright, watery eyes, saying:

"You are my lifesavers. Without you, I would probably have died in the belly of the alien beast. Tell me, I will definitely help if I can."

Upon hearing this, Elaine burst into tears as if a string had snapped, clinging to Jiang Li like an octopus, unable to stop the flow of tears and snot. Jiang Li could only comfort her while helping to pass the tissues.

It took half an hour for Elaine to calm down, but her nose and eyes were still red.

Thinking about her embarrassing behavior just now, Elaine felt a little embarrassed.

"Alright, tell me properly, what exactly happened."

Jiang Li patted Elaine's head, as if comforting a child.

"In fact, our Ai family is a relatively large family in Meng City. My parents are both Saints. And Jie and Wei are both guards in the family and also my good friends."

Recalling the past, Elaine's face showed a happy reminiscence, but it quickly turned into pain.

"A year ago, a beast tide suddenly broke out on the front lines, and my parents were called to the front lines to fight. They... never came back."

"After confirming that my parents had met with an accident, the two sisters adopted by my parents, using a forged will, took over the family's property and drove us out..."

"We thought that without the property, we could earn money on our own. Now it seems that this mission for the Purple Spirit Crystal was just their bait, aimed at exterminating us."

"Now if we return to Meng City, we will definitely be targeted by Roland's sister, Roli. We have nowhere to go..."

After Elaine finished, Jie and Wei also had expressions of anger.

They had thought that giving up the family property would allow the other party to let them go, but they didn't expect the ruthless nature of the Roli sisters, who wanted to exterminate the daughter of their lifesavers.

"I see." Through their conversation earlier, Jiang Li had a general understanding, and now that he knew the specific situation, he couldn't help but sigh. Some people are indeed ungrateful wolves, just like the real-life version of "The Farmer and the Snake."

"What do you want me to do? Do you want me to help you kill that Roli? What's her strength?"

Elaine shook her head:

Roli is already a Saint. I don't want Chenxiang to take risks, and I want to reclaim the family property myself in the future!"

"Oh?" Jiang Li was a bit surprised. Reclaim it herself, meaning she had confidence in becoming a Saint in the future?

"What do you want me to do then?"

"I want Chenxiang to send us out of Meng City to the nearby Wind City. This way, Roli should not be able to harm us anymore."

Elaine's gaze was firm, probably thinking about how to improve her strength after going to Wind City, waiting for the day when the king returns.

Elaine's situation was somewhat similar to his own at the moment.

Jiang Li couldn't help but smile:

"Actually, I think that even if you go to Wind City, it will be difficult to escape Roli's clutches. After all, for a Saint, finding someone in a nearby city is not difficult. I don't agree with this idea."

Upon hearing Jiang Li's words, the three of them looked dim.

Jiang Li continued, "I don't know if you've heard of the Five Great Institutes?"

"The Five Great Institutes?" Elaine was taken aback. Are they the legendary institutions that train top experts? However, there are no such institutes in our Heizhou. What about them?"

"I have some connections at the Five Great Institutes. I can get you into one of them for training. How about returning as kings after successful cultivation?"

Elaine and the others were quite young, yet they already had such strength, indicating that their talents were quite good. The former head of the Gu School, Gu Tian, owed him a favor, so sending these three to the Gu School for training should not be a problem.

Thinking of this, Jiang Li continued:

"What do you think?"

Elaine and the others were stunned for a moment. They had never thought about going to the Five Great Institutes before, either because they didn't have the means or because they didn't know how to get there.

"We don't have the money for a flight..." Jie felt a bit bitter. If they had the money, they could have taken the intercity train to Wind City on their own, without needing Jiang Li's escort.

"It's okay, I have money~" Jiang Li said with a smile.

With six gene enhancement potions in hand, selling one would be more than enough to buy several plane tickets.

"This..."

Elaine and the others looked at each other. It seemed... there was really no reason to refuse?

"Are you sure you won't be causing trouble for Chenxiang?"

Elaine muttered softly.

"No, consider it as repaying your lifesaving grace!"
