Xueyi, the delicate young lady, pitifully said, "There was already once... my body is still unwell."

Song Yan said, "Add money."

Xueyi, the young lady, hugged Song Yan tightly, laughing sweetly, "Why doesn’t a handsome man like you have a concubine at home, and needs to come here and make a scene?"

Song Yan laughed, "Making a scene, that’s exactly what I love doing."

Xueyi, the young lady, took the initiative to cup his cheeks, leaned up, and coyly said, "Annoying!"

Immediately after, sounds of "Oh my" came from within the pleasure boat.

The young lady had her own special skills, especially since Song Yan appeared like a young lad, she worked even harder thinking, "Actually, I’m not losing out either."

Inside the secluded boat, Song Yan raised his hand, just touching the curtain with his fingertips when a jade-like hand grabbed and pulled it down.

"It’s snowing, cold, finally a bit warm inside the boat."

"I want it to be cold."

Song Yan lifted the curtain, letting the wind and snow rush in at once.

Xueyi, the young lady, screamed, her skin tightening rapidly, and the warmth stopped there.

Song Yan felt tranquil, watching the snow flutter across the sky and earth.

This place was called East Corner City, the easternmost major city of West Extremity Ancient Country, also a place where Song Yan’s Divine Sense could cover the "mysterious sapling".

He came here firstly to guard the sapling, secondly to wait for the Heaven-Stealing Pill.

He knew nothing about the "mysterious sapling", but he couldn’t possibly carry that sapling around everywhere.

Once that sapling leaves the Sacrificial Array, it would truly face divine retribution.

The sapling and the traits of Netherworld’s Qi destined it to be rooted and unable to be easily transferred unless... he could think of some other way to carry it around.

Guarding the sapling was far more meaningful than staying in the Formless Ancient Race’s ancestral veins, or rushing around for the sake of the "Formless Celestial Venerable".

So, Song Yan came.

At that moment, Xueyi, the young lady, hurriedly wrapped herself up, playfully hitting Song Yan, yet still wrapping his arm and sitting beside him, following his gaze outside the boat.

As the saying goes, "The wine and meat of the rich stinks, while bones of the frozen dead lie on the road", at this moment, the pleasure boat happened to pass the slums amidst the wind and snow on the long lake, distinctly different from the dirty and desolate streets and brothels in the distance.

This slum was not only filthy but also unbearably crowded, each person resembling a dirty beggar huddled together, shrinking in the corners of the walls.

Some were still alive, some had already frozen to death.

He wouldn’t make long-term plans, and it’s impossible to spend effort chasing the progress of this matter, nor was it professional, but now he held great power, and a single word from him could change many things.

Before, in Nanwu Sword Sect, he ignored disasters because he understood he couldn’t change the big picture, nor could he defy the Puppet Sect’s system. But now, he was the big picture on this land, he could change it as he wished, which naturally made it incomparable to before.

Xueyi, the young lady, distributed the mantou, then came to Song Yan’s side, looking at the weak and dirty child in his arms, softly saying, "Sir, it’s useless, even if there is today, there won’t be tomorrow. Even if this place is helped, there are still others..."

"There is today, not tomorrow? There is this place, not elsewhere?" 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Song Yan murmured, then immediately said, "You say this mantou is useless tomorrow, useless here, do these people not care? Have they given up?"

Xueyi, the young lady, fell silent from his retort.

Song Yan said, "They haven’t given up, they care about the mantou. Don’t neglect small kindnesses."

Xueyi, the young lady, didn’t know what to say.

Song Yan waved and said, "You go back, anyway my rental of the boat is almost up, let’s leave it at that, thank you today for doing some extra tasks."

Xueyi, the young lady, said, "Are you... not leaving?"

Song Yan said, "I’m not leaving."
