Yi Tianyun knew this wasn’t any sort of reward; she was just trying to cover up her embarrassment. However, he wasn’t interested in such a reward. Is a hug being called a reward? She was overestimating herself.
“Don’t get so angry; this isn’t the main point. Let’s discuss the plan.” Yi Tianyun coughed, indicating she shouldn’t be so agitated; it was just a small joke.
The Holy Maiden glared at him but then suddenly burst out laughing.
“Anyway, thank you. I appreciate it!” The Holy Maiden’s beautiful eyes changed from displeasure to gratitude.
If it weren’t for Yi Tianyun, she would have been violated. The thought of it made her feel a little scared.
“You don’t need to thank me. Just assist me or stay here without wandering off; that’s the best way to thank me.” Yi Tianyun smiled.
“No, I won’t just stay here idly. I want to help!” The Holy Maiden’s eyes flashed with killing intent. For her, the Evil Spirit Race deserved no mercy.
“Helping is fine, but if you’re discovered not staying here, won’t that expose us?” Yi Tianyun frowned.
“Don’t worry about that. You can store me away, just like those Evil Spirit Race members with their slaves in living rings. It’s common for them to carry people with them.” The Holy Maiden smiled. “So, no need to worry about frequent checks. To them, I already belong to you; it’s normal to carry me around.”
Yi Tianyun nodded. It was true; the Holy Maiden was like his slave, and carrying her wasn’t unusual.
“Alright, we can start now. Let’s begin by rescuing your people. It will be easier with inside help.” Yi Tianyun thought the best plan was to rescue the Divine Spirit Race members. This way, they could join forces with outsiders, making things much easier.
Faced with such a huge entity, he needed support; he couldn’t handle it alone unless his cultivation was sky-high, allowing him to crush them effortlessly.
But right now, his cultivation was still relatively weak. Facing late-stage God Monarchs was difficult, and he might even lose. Therefore, the immediate priority was to save people, gather experience, and finally break through to Heaven Monarch!
Once he broke through to Heaven Monarch, everything would greatly improve. Aside from enhancing his cultivation, he could purchase a new set from the Sin Shop. This was crucial, as the effects of the sets were formidable and worth redeeming.
“To rescue my people, I don’t know where they are…” The Holy Maiden’s excitement and enthusiasm quickly faded. She had been captured for so long and knew nothing about this place. It was sad.
“Alright, no problem. We’ll go out and search now.” Yi Tianyun quickly stored her in the Evil Spirit Puppet’s internal space, which was spacious enough to hold many people.
“Is this inside your puppet?” The Holy Maiden looked around. The space had tables and chairs, looking more like a lounge.
“Yes, let’s go.” Yi Tianyun controlled the Evil Spirit Puppet to walk outside. As he opened the door, respectful voices greeted him.
“Holy Son, where are you heading?” A Heaven Monarch level guard stood by.
Yi Tianyun quickly appeared before the guard. The guard was about to shout but became dazed after meeting Yi Tianyun’s gaze.
Yi Tianyun swiftly returned to the space. The Holy Maiden, who could see outside but didn’t know what happened, looked puzzled.
“Where are the Divine Spirit Race members imprisoned?” Yi Tianyun asked directly.
“I don’t know…” the guard’s response nearly made Yi Tianyun spit blood. Didn’t he know?
“You don’t know? Aren’t you aware of where the Divine Spirit Race is imprisoned?” Yi Tianyun frowned.
“I don’t know. Only those at the elder level and above know where the Divine Spirit Race members are held. We don’t have the authority to know,” the guard replied truthfully.
“Not even the steward level knows?” Yi Tianyun was puzzled.
“No, only the elders know,” the guard confirmed.
“It seems we have no choice…” Yi Tianyun sighed. “We’ll have to search one by one. We don’t know where the Divine Spirit Race members are imprisoned.”
“Is that how you got the information? What kind of martial art did you use to make him so obedient?” The Holy Maiden was astonished, more so by this ability than anything else.
“Exactly. Look into my eyes, and you’ll know.” Yi Tianyun said as he looked at her.
The Holy Maiden stared back, seemingly eager to learn.
“Go ahead, let’s see if I can learn it! I’ve never seen such a martial art; maybe I can master it!” The Holy Maiden said earnestly.
Yi Tianyun shrugged. She seemed keen on stealing his skills.
“Alright, not everyone can control it.” Yi Tianyun said seriously. “With no leads, we’ll have to explore.”
“I see…” The Holy Maiden’s eyes dimmed, her previous excitement fading. She cared more about her people’s situation than these abilities.
“Don’t worry. I’ll check the situation first.” Yi Tianyun took out the Evil Spirit Race map, which marked various locations. The place imprisoning the Divine Spirit Race would likely be a dungeon.
After a glance, the names were poetic, making it hard to tell which was a prison.
“Do you remember any features of where you were held?” Yi Tianyun asked the Holy Maiden.
“Features… They chose a place with dense dark energy to suppress our powers, sealing off all areas. Besides that, there are no clues.” She shook her head, unable to recall more.
“Dense dark energy…”
Yi Tianyun scanned the map, identifying several possible locations but unsure which one. He thought he’d find it immediately but didn’t expect many options.
“Tell me your people’s names!” Yi Tianyun recalled the Evil Spirit Wheel he had obtained earlier. It could help locate them.
“Names… I’m Ji Shuilian. Just call me Shuilian.” Ji Shuilian smiled.
Yi Tianyun’s face darkened, and he lightly tapped her forehead. “I’m asking for your people’s names, not yours!”
Yi Tianyun was exasperated. She seemed a bit dumb for a Holy Maiden.
