"You must want to find your companions now, like your brother, or perhaps your sister."
Pei Liechuan first mentioned brother, because he thought that way Shang Wu probably wouldn't guess that he knew his sister.
"You know my sister?" Shang Wu seemed a bit surprised.
"..."
Pei Liechuan was silent for two seconds: "It's a bit complicated."
"If you knew my brother, you'd be dead already!" Shang Wu jumped to the side of his car: "Take me to where there are people, and I'll give you this."
He took out a bead, his only possession.
Who would have thought that when he was asleep, he forgot to bring his treasure?
And also—
His coffin seemed to be valuable too, but... he got lost.
After those few werewolves woke him up, he snapped their necks.
As for why he didn't cut off their heads, it was because he wanted to use public opinion to incite human panic, so that he could find his brothers and sisters.
If the heads were twisted off and lost, then when reported, no one would know it was his doing.
He just wanted to come to the seaside for a drink of water, and then...
He wandered here for a day without finding his way out.
Humans really are vile!
Pei Liechuan seemed to know that he got lost easily, so he jumped to the side of the car too: "Let's make a deal."
"Hm?" Shang Wu looked at him, his eyes filled with wariness.
Pei Liechuan sized him up. He was about the same height as himself, and his appearance was nothing like Shang Yu's.
His eyes were as sharp as an eagle's, his face always looked like others owed him money.
White, without a trace of color.
If an ordinary person saw him, they might think he was a junkie.
But his bones were very prominent, his fingers were just skin and bone.
If the cloak didn't cover his body, he might have looked like just a skeleton.
His body seemed to lack the nourishment of blood.
When Shang Yu first woke up, she looked like this too, but after drinking Pei Liechuan's blood, she immediately recovered to a normal appearance.
To be honest, he still thought Shang Yu looked best. The others looked too ugly when they woke up.
"In the human world, you must follow the rules," Pei Liechuan handed him a card. "I can have people arrange an identity for you, arrange work, so you can find your relatives faster."
But Shang Wu didn't take the card, his azure pupils fixed intently on Pei Liechuan: "How do you know I still have relatives? Who are you exactly—"
Pei Liechuan's thin lips pursed slightly. This was really not easy to trick.
"I get it now," Shang Wu straightened up. "Are you a descendant of The Ten? Did she leave you a message to find us?"
"That's right!" Pei Liechuan immediately agreed. "You guessed it, it was Shang Yu... who told me to wait for you here."
Upon hearing him say the name, Shang Wu dropped his guard: "Alright, give it to me, I'll take care of it."
Pei Liechuan handed him the card: "I'll send you over there now, because this area isn't very safe. You can go abroad and lay low for a while. I'll have people arrange things for you."
"I just need someone to take me to my destination. I can handle the rest myself."
"Okay."
Pei Liechuan got into the car, and Shang Wu sat in the back, his gaze fixed on Pei Liechuan the whole time. But Pei Liechuan remained unperturbed and drove calmly.
The most important thing now was to lure him away. It wasn't time for Pei Liechuan to reveal himself yet. And facing so many of Shang Yu's elder brothers or sisters at once...
He was worried something might happen.
So he'd let Shang Wu go abroad for two months first. Just two months would be enough time!
