"Very well, I will take you two to see my father now." Wang Neishi said as he stood up, feeling eager and wishing he could fast forward to the scene where they were on the verge of death, and he would appear as a divine intervention, and the grateful women would offer themselves to him.

He felt a surge of excitement at the thought of Miss Xie lying so tenderly in his arms.

Although that Miss Yun had a fierce look in her eyes, she was truly beautiful and had a top-notch figure, so I didn't mind...

On the way, Xie Daoyun couldn't help but ask, "By the way, I heard that if your father is not satisfied, he will extract the soul of the visitor? I wonder what he wants the soul for?"

Wang Neishi explained, "Miss Xie may think that collecting souls is evil, but the world has never criticized the Wang family for this. Do you know why?"

Seeing the two women shake their heads, Wang Neishi continued, "Because over the years my father has exorcised demons and ghosts, saving countless lives and accumulating immense merit, the various talismans have also become overloaded. Therefore, they need the power of the soul to nourish them so that they can save more people in the future."

"Moreover, those whose souls were taken away were also in a fair trade; no one forced them."

"I see," Xie Daoyun replied before falling silent.

Saving some people but killing another group—which is more worthwhile?

Yun Jianyue pondered to herself, what kind of talisman needs a soul to nurture it? Why does it seem to exude an evil aura?

Seeing that the two women remained silent, Wang Neishi assumed they were frightened and said with a smile, "You two don't need to worry. With me here, I will definitely protect you two ladies."

"Thank you for your trouble, Second Young Master." The two women nodded slightly.

Soon the group arrived in front of a tall building. Wang Neishi went in first to report, and soon came out: "Father usually doesn't receive guests lately, but he agreed to see you out of consideration for me."

"Thank you, Second Young Master." The two women exchanged a glance, and Yun Jianyue secretly transmitted her voice to Xie Daoyun, telling him not to be nervous and that she would take care of everything.

Xie Daoyun's anxious heart finally calmed down a little, thinking to herself that she was indeed the leader of the Demonic Sect who had seen many storms.

Soon the group entered the tall building. The building looked magnificent on the outside, but the light inside was quite dim, and the passageways were somewhat cramped.

Suddenly, Xie Daoyun noticed the paintings hanging on the wall. The figures in the paintings were lifelike and detailed. Because she had practiced painting for a period of time in the past because she needed to draw talismans, she could naturally see how powerful they were.

He couldn't help but exclaim, "Did your father paint these? His skill is truly extraordinary!"

Among the people she knew, probably only Yu Yanluo had this kind of painting skill. In some ways, Yu Yanluo's painting skills were even slightly inferior to this, because it didn't look like a painting at all; it looked like a real person.

The only slightly strange thing is that all the paintings are of people; there are no landscapes, flowers, trees, or plants, which is rather monotonous.

Wang Neishi looked strange and replied after a long while: "These are the poor wretches who failed to make deals with my father over the past few decades. Their souls are left here forever."

Xie Daoyun: "???!!!"

Yun Jianyue remained calm. Over the years, many people had died at the hands of the Demonic Sect Leader, otherwise she wouldn't have been able to condense such a domain.

Soon the group arrived at the top floor, and Wang Neishi knocked on the door: "Father, I have brought the person."

"Let them in, you can leave now," came an old voice from inside.

Wang Neishi was taken aback. He had originally wanted to go in, but he didn't dare to object, so he said, "Father, they are my good friends. I hope you will be lenient with them later."

"Understood." The voice coming from inside was devoid of any emotion.

Helpless, Wang Neishi could only secretly wink at the two women: "Don't be afraid, ladies, I'll be waiting for you downstairs."

After saying this, he went downstairs, looking back every few steps. He was genuinely afraid that his father might impulsively take their souls. It would be such a pity if two such beautiful and charming women died.

After he left, the door opened automatically, revealing a very spacious interior. Directly in front was a high platform where an old man sat, clearly Wang Youjun, the head of the Wang family. He raised his eyelids and glanced at the two women: "Come in."

Yun Jianyue stepped inside first, subtly shielding Xie Daoyun behind her, while also sizing him up.

Perhaps because he spent most of his time indoors, the old man's skin was exceptionally pale and his hair was sparse and gray, but one could still vaguely see that his face was well-proportioned, indicating that he must have been quite handsome in his youth.

Yun Jianyue pondered to herself. Her opponent's cultivation was slightly inferior to hers, but a large part of the people in this world relied on talismans for combat strength. She had no idea who would be stronger in a real fight.

"I haven't seen such a beautiful girl in a long time. No wonder Lao-er kept pleading with me on her behalf," Wang Youjun smiled. "Is it you who want to make a deal with me?"

“We are deeply grateful for your kindness and compassion, Second Young Master. We are looking for our lost companion, so we have come to find you, sir,” Xie Daoyun replied softly.

"Public-spirited?" Wang Youjun sneered. He knew what kind of person his son was, but he didn't bother to expose him. "Asking me for help is making a mountain out of a molehill."

As he spoke, his brows furrowed, clearly indicating some suspicion about their motives.

"The main reason is that those companions are very important to us. We don't know where they are in this world, we don't have any clues, and we have no way to find them ourselves," Xie Daoyun explained. Normally, it wouldn't be necessary to take such a big risk to ask Wang Youjun for help, but they were sucked into this world and scattered to various places. This world is so big that there's nowhere to look for them.
