A Deal

"You're a guard of the Outer Mausoleum?"

"Who are you?"

The middle-aged man shook his head. "Who I am isn't important, what's important is that I can help you leave the Imperial Mausoleum!"

"Hehe, leave the Imperial Mausoleum!" Lu Xuzhou smirked and shook his head. "Once one enters the Imperial Mausoleum, they'll forever be an Imperial Mausoleum Protector. There's no way to leave. Only a fool will believe you!"

The middle-aged man dully replied, "Are you still an Imperial Mausoleum Protector once you leave Ji Dynasty?"

"It's impossible to leave Ji Dynasty." Lu Xuzhou shook his head. "I can tell that you don't know how things go around here. The moment I leave, a master will be hot on my trail. There's no way to escape!"

"I have a way to help you escape," the middle-aged man said. "Just as how I put you here."
