The Rakasha masked men were stunned when they saw Yellow 10000th, 9999th, 9998th, and 9997th imprisoned inside the Soul Gourd. These four had been sent to assassinate the woman from the Shenlian clan, yet they had been captured alive. No wonder the ’Queen’ had failed to summon their souls back; they were still very much alive, trapped in this place.
"Yue’er, thanks to the Soul Contract we made, when you advanced, I advanced as well. And I’ve already seized my opportunity in this place." Shenlian Yinzhu gently patted his sister’s head, pride swelling in his chest.
"Brother, drink some water first." Shenlian Yingyue handed him a flask of spiritual water, her voice laced with concern.
Though he had an entire lake of spiritual water in his spatial space, Shenlian Yinzhu didn’t refuse her offer. He nodded and took a deep gulp, feeling the pure energy soothe his meridians.
Meanwhile, Li Bing cautiously approached, his heart still racing from the earlier battle. The sheer power of these masked men had nearly overwhelmed him; had Shenlian Yingyue and her partners not intervened, he and his clansmen would have been annihilated.
"Miss, who, who are they?" he asked hesitantly, his voice trembling slightly.
"Heal your wounds first." Shenlian Yingyue waved her hand, and several small bottles of magical water from the Lake of Miracle floated toward Li Bing and his injured companions.
They obeyed without question, uncorking the bottles and drinking the shimmering liquid. Almost instantly, their injuries began to mend at an astonishing speed, their pale complexions regaining color.
Shenlian Yingyue wasn’t worried about betrayal. She trusted her instincts; if they dared to turn against her, she had ways to deal with them.
"Today’s matter, you know what to do." Shenlian Yinzhu cast a cold glance at Li Bing and the others.
"Some things are better left unasked." Zhiyi, standing beside him, smiled gently, but his words carried an underlying threat.
"We understand." A chill ran down the spines of the Glass Lizard clansmen. They nodded hurriedly.
This was far more serious than they had imagined.
"Next time, don’t rush to save us. If we need help, we’ll call for you." Shenlian Yingyue’s expression remained indifferent as she spoke.
She didn’t want them involved any further. If the Rakasha discovered that the Glass Lizard clan was allied with her, they would erase them from existence without hesitation.
"Yes, we acted recklessly." Li Bing sighed, regret flashing in his eyes.
Still, he didn’t regret his decision. Even if it had nearly cost him his life, he would never stand by while her partner was in danger.
"Leave now. These are the pills I’ve refined. Grow stronger; in the future, I’ll need your help." With a flick of her wrist, a storage pouch floated toward Li Bing.
When he peered inside, his hands trembled violently.
Three hundred Radiant Meridian Pills, capable of unlocking latent immortal meridians and stabilizing core energy for smooth ascension.
Three hundred Golden Ascension Pills, boosting yin-yang energy and immortal essence to break through to the Golden Immortal realm.
Twenty Mystic Vein Elixirs, unlocking deeper Dao comprehension needed for the Mystic Immortal stage.
And one thousand Healing Pills, specially refined for beast races using top-grade Heaven herbs and the magical water from the Lake of Miracle.
This was a fortune beyond their wildest dreams.
"I hope the next time I see you, you won’t be in such a miserable state again." Her words were sharp, but her intention was clear. She wanted to push them to become stronger.
To her, these rewards were nothing. But to those who proved their loyalty, she would give them the best.
