Chapter 797 A Deathly Resolve

Hearing the sound, the woman hurried to turn and look at the female jailer, "Replying to Da Rao, this is what happened."

"Does only a monster react when it sees this?" The female jailer raised the yellow talisman, "Is that what happens?"

Listening to the female jailer's vivid description, the woman tremblingly asked, "What did you see?"

"I just pasted a yellow talisman on that cell door, and after that, the woman clutched her chest, looking very pained," the female jailer explained in detail.

"She's a monster," the woman said excitedly.

"A monster?" the female jailer repeated, her expression turning tense, "Then you need to speed up."

The woman tremblingly replied, "Okay," and turned her back again.

The female jailer sat at the table, gripping the edge with both hands, glancing towards the direction of Mu Anxiao's cell from time to time.

At this moment, the female head jailer found Mu Anxiao's inn, "It's here." She stopped outside the inn.

Just then, a young man happened to return and saw the female head jailer, so he walked up to her side and said softly, "Please come in."

The female head jailer turned her head to look at the young man, "Take me to your boss."

"Do you know our boss?" the young man asked.

The female head jailer, looking impatient, said, "What business is it of yours whether I know her or not? Just take me, why are you talking so much nonsense?"

"You're quite temperamental," the young man muttered under his breath.

The female head jailer glared at the young man, "Look at my clothes."

"Oh," the young man responded blankly. He glanced at the female head jailer's clothes and smiled, "They look very much like the clothes of a constable, but you're a woman, so you shouldn't be on duty, right?"

"Have you heard of the female prison?" the female head jailer asked coldly.

The moment the young man heard the words "female prison," his expression became tense, "What did our boss do wrong? Are you here for her?"

"You've figured out my identity," the female head jailer said.

The young man grinned, "You're the famous female head jailer, aren't you?"

"My reputation isn't as exaggerated as you say, but I am indeed this famous," the female head jailer said calmly.

"Seeing how well-groomed you are, I know you must be very capable," the young man gave a thumbs-up.

The female head jailer's face turned cold, "Have you studied?"

"No," the young man shook his head.

"If not, go read some more books, otherwise, if I, with my good temper, heard you, I'd want to slap you. If I had a bad temper, I'd beat you until you couldn't tell north from south," the female head jailer looked coldly at the young man.

The young man continued to grin, "Don't, I really can't tell north, so after being beaten, I can only distinguish between front, back, left, and right."

The female head jailer was speechless.

The young man smiled, "Why aren't you talking?"

"Lead the way," the female head jailer spat out two cold words.

"Got it!" the young man replied and started to lead.

A few minutes later, the female head jailer, led by the young man, arrived at the counter. Tian Jiang stood up quickly upon seeing the female head jailer.

"You are the boss?" the female head jailer asked.

"Yes," Tian Jiang replied, glancing at the young man.

Seeing Tian Jiang look at him, the young man quickly shifted his gaze and walked away.

The female head jailer glanced at the young man's retreating back, "I have something to tell you."

"Go ahead," Tian Jiang smiled.

The female head jailer hesitated for a moment, then said, "Do you know a woman named Shi Yi?"

"Shi Yi?" Tian Jiang repeated with a look of surprise.

The female head jailer asked, "You don't know her?"

"Uh, I know a man, but... a woman, no," Tian Jiang shook his head slightly.

Upon hearing this, the female head jailer frowned, "But she asked me to find you. This... you only know men, not women. What should we do about this?"

"What's wrong?" Tian Jiang asked, seeing the female head jailer's distressed expression.

"Well, to be honest, the woman who sent me to find you is not to be trifled with. If possible," the female head jailer bared her yellow teeth, "I hope you can come with me. If you don't know her, then you can leave directly, and I won't be targeted by her hatred."

"Is that woman really that powerful?" Tian Jiang asked, seeing the female head jailer's troubled look.

The female head jailer nodded firmly, "Yes, please help me."

Seeing the female head jailer's difficulty and recalling her words, Tian Jiang's mind flashed with Mu Anxiao's face. After a moment of hesitation, she agreed, "Alright."

"Thank you," the female head jailer smiled instantly.

"You've had a hard time too. Helping you is what I should do, but on the premise that I hope you'll take good care of me in the future," Tian Jiang said, subtly gesturing towards the inn.

The female head jailer smiled, "I understand. From now on, I guarantee your business will prosper."

"Thank you," Tian Jiang smiled, "Let's go then."

"Mm," the female head jailer nodded.

In the prison cell, Mu Anxiao frowned, staring intently at the incantations on the yellow talisman, swallowing hard.

"You seemed quite confident earlier, why are you troubled again?" the wolf demon asked, turning to look at Mu Anxiao.

Mu Anxiao took a deep breath, "This thing is really troublesome. I can't understand it."

"Then we'll just have to wait for time to pass," the wolf demon said.

"There's no time limit. If I can't break it, I'll have to stay in here forever," Mu Anxiao said agitatedly.

The wolf demon was startled and sat up straight, "That won't do. If you stay in here forever, who will help me?"

"You only think of yourself. Why don't you think about what I'll do if I starve to death?" Mu Anxiao said impatiently.

"Then you go ahead and try!" the wolf demon said perfunctorily, leaning against the wall.

Mu Anxiao glared fiercely at the wolf demon, then raised her face to look at the yellow talisman again. The wolf demon asked, "Can mortals come in?"

"No, unless they are immortals," Mu Anxiao said, still staring at the yellow talisman.

Hearing this, the wolf demon sighed, "Then this is really a troublesome matter. I can't help you anymore."

"I didn't expect you to," Mu Anxiao said, continuing her observation.

The wolf demon's mouth twitched, and he said nothing more.

Up ahead, the woman began to get nervous.

The female jailer looked at the woman's back and kept asking, "How is it? How is it?"

"Wait a moment," the woman replied tremblingly.

The female jailer urged, "Hurry up."

"Mm-hmm," the woman agreed, feeling anxious in her heart.

After a quarter of an hour...

The female jailer walked to the cell door and directly opened it.

The woman was startled and slowly turned to look at the female jailer, forcing a dry laugh, "Why did you come in?"

"Come with me," the female jailer said coldly.

"I..."

"Don't give me any of your excuses. I've waited long enough for you," the female jailer said impolitely and walked ahead.
