Looking at the four people lying on the ground, Zhong Li's eyes flashed with disdain. Then, he looked at the rest of the people and the disdain in his eyes was replaced by sympathy.
"In a while, go to the backyard. There will be people there to receive you. After you leave, find the army or go to the Emperor's Equal's Mansion."
"As long as you go there, I believe Li Zhiping will not stand by and do nothing. At that time, with Li Zhiping's help, you will be able to return to your homes. As for the brand on your body …"
At this point, Zhong Li's expression darkened. To be honest, he really had no way to deal with the brand. Unless he cut off the flesh where the brand was, otherwise …
"It's fine. This brand is nothing. As long as it can get us out of this devil's den, we can go anywhere."
"That's right. We don't want to stay here any longer. Instead of being treated as goods to be bought and sold, it's better to go home or live a peaceful life in a deserted place."
"That's right. We don't want to stay here any longer!"
"Sob sob …"
After one person stood out to express their feelings, the rest of the people couldn't help but follow suit. The rest of the people who didn't say anything couldn't hold it in anymore and started crying.
That scene was truly tragic. Those who heard it would be sad and those who saw it would cry.
"You …"
Looking at the crying people, Zhong Li didn't expect that under their appearances, there would be such fragile hearts.
Seeing the girls crying, he hated these human traffickers even more. He didn't hide his killing intent and it instantly burst out of his body.
"Alright. Those who untie the ropes, go to the backyard. I've already made arrangements there."
With that, a long sword appeared in Zhong Li's hand. Holding the long sword, he walked in front of a girl and swung the sword. After cutting the rope that tied the girl up, the girl bowed to Zhong Li and thanked him. Then, without any hesitation, she ran to the backyard.
When the rest of the people saw the girl leaving, they all rushed to Zhong Li with longing in their eyes. They stretched out their hands and waited to be rescued.
"Tendo is unfair!"
He looked at the departing woman, then at the mortal world disciples. Sighing, he didn't linger. One by one, he rescued them and ran toward the rear courtyard.
Their speed was extremely fast. These people seemed to have used up all their strength. None of them were willing to fall behind. It was as if they were afraid that if they fell behind, they would be caught again.
Through his Spiritual Sense, he looked at the group of people fleeing. He smiled bitterly. Thinking about it, some of these people were young ladies of rich families, and some were even young ladies of high officials. None of them had suffered so much.
Of course, after this unforgettable experience, their lives in the future would be even better. With this unforgettable experience, they would no longer have princess syndrome like before. They would be able to treat others calmly and as equals!
In the rear courtyard, when Zhong Li released the first person, he had sent a voice transmission to Wang Wen. Thus, the seven of them were currently waiting in the rear courtyard, waiting for the arrival of the others.
Looking at their actions, Lin Ray smiled bitterly and shook his head. He communicated with Ouyang Zhen, who was cultivating in the System. Originally, he wanted him to work hard during this period of time to break through to the Sage Realm. Now, it seemed that without him as a subordinate, many things would be inconvenient!
In the System, Lin Ray's voice rang in Ouyang Zhen's ears. "Ouyang Zhen, stop cultivating first. We still need you during this period of time."
"Young Master!"
Hearing Lin Ray's voice, Ouyang Zhen stopped cultivating. When he opened his eyes, a bright light flashed in them. He got up and looked at his disciple, Ouyang Ting, in the distance. Then, he disappeared from the System.
In the outside world, Ouyang Zhen appeared in front of Lin Ray. He was about to bow to Lin Ray, but he was stopped by Lin Ray just as he moved. "That's enough. There are so many people at this time. You are very eye-catching!"
As he spoke, he swept his gaze across the crowd before taking a deep breath and recounting the events that had just transpired in detail.
When he heard that there were cultivators in the Empty Underworld Region, Ouyang Zhen's eyes widened. His divine consciousness rushed out and Zhong Li and the others naturally appeared in Ouyang Zhen's divine consciousness.
"It's true!"
"Mm. Now that I have found them, I can't let them go so easily!" At this moment, when he heard this, Ouyang Zhen prayed for them in his heart.
From what he knew, as long as he was targeted by his Young Master, nothing good would come out of it. So …
Good luck to them!
Of course, Lin Ray didn't know what Ouyang Zhen was thinking. If he did, he would have done a series of combo attacks.
"Young Master, please give your orders!" Ouyang Zhen cupped his hands.
"Heh."
"Actually, it's nothing much. After those girls are rescued, bring them to the Emperor's Palace. You don't have to care about where they are."
"After that …"
Recalling what he said to someone in front of the city gate, the corners of his mouth curled up. He smiled and continued, "Find Fan Jun and let him walk around the back door of the Emperor's Palace. After that, you can come back."
Ouyang Zhen: "…"
"That's it?"
"Yes!" Lin Ray nodded disapprovingly.
Looking at his Young Master's serious expression, Ouyang Zhen was speechless. After all, he was a Sage-to-be. Even if he didn't want him to fight, he couldn't let him know that a Sage-to-be was leading a group of mortals.
After all, he was the Clan Leader of a big family. Uh … in the past. As the saying goes, when a tiger falls to the plains, it will be bullied by dogs. Looking at his Young Master's serious expression, he knew that this matter was going to happen.
In the end, under Lin Ray's tyranny, Ouyang Zhen could only reluctantly nod his head and agree. "Young Master, don't worry. This subordinate will handle this matter beautifully!"
"Mm, you can go now!" With that, he waved his hand and let Ouyang Zhen leave. However, he sneered in his heart.
How could you handle this matter so beautifully? This is such a small matter. If you can't handle it well, what use do I have for you?
Of course, Ouyang Zhen didn't know about this matter. At this moment, Ouyang Zhen was outside the mansion in a flash, outside the wall where the group of women had left.
In the backyard, Wang Wen, who was waiting for everyone, saw the first woman who appeared. He quickly went forward and told her about Zhong Li's matter. The woman believed him and was immediately sent out by Wang Wen.
At this moment, Ouyang Zhen, who was waiting outside the wall, saw the person who appeared. He took a step forward and appeared in front of the woman in an instant. Without waiting for her to speak, he spoke first, "You don't need to speak. You just need to know that I am here to bring you to the Emperor's Mansion."
"…"
The woman was very obedient. She didn't speak and obediently stood behind Ouyang Zhen. After experiencing this matter, she understood a lot and saw a lot of people's faces.
For some reason, she felt a sense of security towards Ouyang Zhen. A woman's sixth sense was very strong. Therefore, she chose to believe him. Although they didn't know each other, she believed him.
After that, more and more women appeared. Like the first woman, they didn't speak to Ouyang Zhen.
Ten minutes later, no one appeared. Ou Yangzhen looked at the group of women in front of him and waved his hand with a depressed expression. He said coldly, "Be quiet for a while. When we reach the Emperor's Palace, you can just say that you came here on your own. As for my existence, you must not mention a word about it. Do you understand?"
"Un … Understood!"
Although they didn't know why, they didn't dare to go against Ouyang Zhen's words.
On the other side of the wall, Wang Wen naturally had a spiritual sense. However, this level of spiritual sense was useful against some low-level cultivators. Against someone of Ouyang Zhen's level, it was like an egg hitting a rock.
In Wang Wen's spiritual sense, he could only see a group of women. As for Ouyang Zhen's existence, he couldn't sense it. He also didn't know that such a person existed.
Seeing that no one else appeared, Wang Wen decisively left. As for the group of women, he didn't pay any attention to them. He turned around and walked towards the front yard. Now that these people had left, it was time for them to make a move. Thinking about it made them excited.
In their eyes, these people weren't people, but their points, martial skills, and battle techniques.
"Let's go. I'll take you away!"
After saying that, he didn't care whether the people behind him followed or not. He just walked on his own.
In the mansion, Ouyang Zhen and Wang Wen's actions had been observed. After their matter was over, Lin Ray stopped monitoring them. His spiritual sense directly locked onto the eight cultivators.
In his opinion, the hindrance had been dealt with. Next, it was time for them to get to the main topic. What followed next was the most interesting part.
"Interesting. I wonder how they will deal with it."
"Will they kill them directly, or …"
Looking at the people who were in the middle of filming, Lin Ray wanted to see if they would be like this in the future.
"Little Tiger, isn't it time for you to come out and have some fun?"
"Awoo!"
A bestial roar sounded from Lin Ray's body. Then, a tender voice sounded in Lin Ray's mind. "Brother Lei, you still know that I'm here?"
Lin Ray was speechless.
He felt a little guilty about the Red Flame Tiger. Except for when he needed it, otherwise …
After thinking about it, he smiled bitterly and said, "Okay, I'll make it up to you in the future. Come out and have some fun!"
"However, I have to seal a part of your strength. Otherwise, I'm afraid that the people here will be killed by your pressure!"
"Ah?"
The Red Flame Tiger was dumbfounded. It thought that it could go out and have fun. It didn't expect that it would have to suppress its cultivation after going out. For a moment, it began to consider whether it should go out or not.
"Hey, don't say that. Just come out when I ask you to. I promise that after this time, I won't put you away. You can always be outside."
Okay?
"Okay!"
This time, the Scarlet Flame Tiger was overjoyed. Without any hesitation, it immediately agreed.
"…"
"Okay, can you come out now?" Lin Ray rolled his eyes and said.
"Hehe, of course."
After saying that, the ten thousand feet tall Red Flame Tiger in the alternate space quickly shrank. Its cultivation went from its original high to the Mahayana Realm before it stopped.
Whoosh!
A red ray of light appeared and landed perfectly in Lin Ray's arms.
"Damn you!"
Looking at Little Tiger in his arms, Lin Ray smiled bitterly and shook his head. However, he didn't blame Little Tiger. Instead, he went straight to the point.
Looking into the distance, he said, "In a while, there will be a few people. When I tell you to go, you go. Just give them a little bit of cholera. Remember, it's only cholera. You can't kill people!"
"You bastard, you can kill them with a single slap. This is not what I want, do you understand?!"
Linley patiently advised Little Tiger, not for any other reason than to warn Little Tiger not to act recklessly and to restrain his strength.
In his opinion, a sneeze from the Red Flame Tiger could kill the people here. Even the cultivators from the Empty Nether Territory who had achieved Inedia wouldn't have a place to stay.
After all, the difference in their cultivation was too big. So …
"Sigh!"
Little Tiger raised its furry head and looked at its master helplessly. Then, it nodded weakly. "Okay, Brother Lei, I know what you mean."
"Don't worry. How can I have the courage to kill them?"
"However, brother Lei …" Suddenly, the Scarlet Flame Tiger became stern. He said, "This place is extremely strange. Whether it's the Immortals' World, the God World, or the Saints' World, I've never heard of a place like this."
"There's a lot of spiritual energy here. It's different from the Three Realms. Have you noticed?"
"There's something special in the spiritual energy here. It can increase our power of laws."
Looking at Little Tiger's serious face, Lin Ray smiled and nodded. "I knew it!"
"Although this place is strange, it's not the place we're staying."
"We must go back to the Holy World. This place is just a stop in our lives."
"Pa!" A slap landed on Little Tiger's head. The serious scene was instantly pulled back. "What are you thinking about every day in that little head of yours?"
"That's not for you to think about. You just need to know that no matter where we go, we'll always be together. With me around, no one can hurt you."
"You … you hit me again!"
Although Little Tiger was angry because of Lin Ray's slap, it felt warm inside. It had always trusted Lin Ray's words. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been able to stay by his side all the time.
At this moment, backstage, Wang Wen and the rest had already met up with Zhong Li. Among them, Xiao Miao saw Zhong Li and immediately pounced on him.
"Senior Sister, Senior Sister, Miao Miao missed you so much. You don't know. When you weren't around, Senior Brother bullied me every day. And Father, that big baddie, he …" For a moment, Xiao Miao couldn't stop talking.
When the others heard this, they all lowered their heads in embarrassment.
Only Zhong Li looked at Xiao Miao with a doting expression. "That's enough, little girl."
"Don't think I don't know you. You're a little devil. You're the only one who can mess with others. Who would dare to touch you?"
As he spoke, he was stunned. "We're doing a mission now. Let's not mess around. We'll talk about it later. Alright!"
"Yes, yes, yes. Little Junior Sister, let's get to work first!"
"Yes, yes, Little Junior Sister."
For a moment, everyone attacked. In the end, Xiao Miao pouted and looked at Zhong Li with an aggrieved expression. She nodded. "I'll do as you say."
