Zhao Qianling was on the brink of despair, but when she heard from Xue Yang that there was another way to save Xue Mo, her eyes lit up.
But as she continued to listen, she realized that this method seemed to be the last resort.
The success rate was less than 10%!
He would also lose his entire lifetime of cultivation!
"What kind of riddle are you guys playing?!" Zhao Qianling demanded.
No matter how many times Zhao Qianling asked, the Hermit Emperor and Xue Yang seemed to have reached some sort of tacit understanding. Neither of them said a word.
The Hermit Emperor mulled over Xue Yang's words, then nodded.
"How pitiful parents are!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Hermit Emperor ordered them to leave.
"This child needs to recuperate. There are too many people here today. You guys shouldn't stay here anymore. Go out."
"Thank you, Hermit Emperor, for taking care of Bubbly Foam."
The Hermit Emperor nodded, and Xue Yang looked at the Zhao sisters.
"Little Mo needs to rest. Let's not stay here. It's not good for her. Let's go out."
Zhao Qianling left the room and blocked Xue Yang's path.
"Xue Yang, what's going on? What are you and the Hermit Emperor talking about?"
"Nothing!"
"Did he just say that the success rate is less than ten percent and that you need to cultivate your entire life?"
"This is just a worst-case scenario." Xue Yang pursed his lips and smiled. "Perhaps the Lord of Big Dipper will turn things around, but even if she doesn't agree in the end, all you have to do is remember that Bubbly Mo hasn't lost all hope yet."
…
"Hey, what happened to your eyes?"
Xue Beibei, who was leading Ye Zichen to the Xue Family's prison, tilted her head and asked.
"You mean this?" Ye Zichen pointed at his left eye with a smile.
"That's right," said Xue Beibei. "Big sister Murong and the others said you went to get revenge for second sister. Is that how your eyes got hurt?"
"They told you everything," Ye Zichen nodded.
"We've been keeping in touch." Xue Beibei took out the jade slip. "Are your eyes badly injured?"
"No," Ye Zichen smiled.
"That's good!" Xue Beibei didn't think too much of it. She smiled. "Did you get revenge for second sister?"
When Ye Zichen thought of the Bai Family's annihilation, a fierce light flashed through his eyes.
"Of course."
"Really? Then you're pretty amazing."
"What do you think? How could someone that your sister has taken a fancy to be bad? Oh right, why don't I see Hong Hong? Isn't she in the clan? "
A ten-year vow.
Even now, Ye Zichen remembered it clearly.
The two of them hadn't actually experienced anything, but they had inexplicably made that kind of vow. Ever since he'd arrived in the Sea of Innocence, his heart had been pounding. He wanted to see Xue Honghong, but he didn't want her to see him like this.
"Big sis went to the clan's secret realm. She won't be coming out for a while," said Xue Beibei.
"I see."
Ye Zichen nodded. He felt a bit disappointed, but then let out a sigh of relief.
"This is my family's prison. You can go in by yourself. I won't be going in." Xue Beibei looked at the door leading out from the foot of the mountain, fear flickering in her eyes.
"Oh, you're scared?" Ye Zichen joked.
"Nonsense. It's just that the smell inside is too bad. I don't want to stink after going in."
Xue Beibei stuck out her nose and snorted, then sent a beam of divine power into the light.
When the beam of light she shot out landed on the halo, several incomprehensible runes appeared above the halo. The runes were interconnected, and from the looks of the runes, it seemed that only the divine power of the Xue Family's bloodline would be reflected by the halo.
Before long, the light disappeared, and Xue Beibei retracted her hand.
"Go on in. I'll wait for you outside. Right, take this with you. "
Xue Beibei tossed a talisman to Ye Zichen.
"This is the Divine Power that I just added. If you want to open the door of the cell, just activate this Talisman."
With that, Xue Beibei turned around, tilted her head, and waved at Ye Zichen.
Ye Zichen chuckled and entered the cell. It wasn't as messy as Xue Beibei had described.
The air inside was fresh and clean, but because it was located at the foot of the mountain, there was no light to illuminate the interior, so it was dark.
When Ye Zichen recalled Xue Beibei's earlier tsundere expression, he couldn't help but chuckle.
However, he was also curious as to what kind of person was being held here to make Xue Beibei so afraid.
"Fiery Eyes of Truth, activate!"
Ye Zichen's Fiery Eyes of Truth illuminated the dimly lit prison cell. He walked down the stone path and passed countless ordinary prisoners. When he reached the second underground floor, he finally saw his first target worthy of his attention.
A man in blue robes sat in the middle of the cell, pouring himself a cup of wine. There was a table in front of him, and he seemed to be enjoying himself.
However, judging from the prisoner's aura, he was a yao expert.
His aura was very restrained. Ye Zichen merely glanced at him, but he felt a chill run up his spine.
After that, he ignored Ye Zichen and continued to drink by himself.
"I'm afraid he's at least a Yao Divine General."
Ye Zichen gulped, then continued walking deeper into the forest. Along the way, he saw that the prisoners were all Divine Generals, Demon Generals, and Yao Generals.
He was sure that the prisoners on the first floor were all ordinary people, while those on the second floor were all Divine Generals.
And then there was a third floor ….
"Kid, I advise you not to go any further."
Just as Ye Zichen was hesitating about whether or not to go down, a voice suddenly rang out from the second floor.
Ye Zichen looked behind him and saw that it was the yao expert he'd seen earlier.
"Senior, what sort of extraordinary existence is locked up on the third floor?" asked Ye Zichen respectfully.
"Senior? Haha, you're calling me senior? " The blue-robed Yao Divine General laughed, then leaned against the wall and wrinkled his nose. "You're not a member of the Xue Family. No wonder. But for you to enter the Xue Family's dungeons, it's clear that Xue Jia trusts you quite a bit."
Ye Zichen stood in place and said nothing.
"Alright then. Just because you called me senior, I'll give you a few pointers," said the blue-robed expert.
"I'd like to hear the details," said Ye Zichen.
"You saw it for yourself. In truth, the Xue Family's dungeons divide prisoners according to their strength. The ones locked up on the first floor are all ordinary rulers and diviners. The ones locked up on the second floor are all general-class existences like us, so it's not hard to guess that the ones locked up on the third floor are all existences with higher cultivation bases than us. "
"Emperor-level?"
"Emperor-level. That's right. You humans call it Emperor-level. But based on the aura I've sensed over the years, he should be a demon, "said the blue-robed yao.
