Looking at Dongfang Mian, and then secretly pointing to her head, Aju whispered, "She has good talent, but there's something wrong with her brain."
Unsurprisingly, he immediately got a kick in the butt. "Get to the point!"
"Alright, alright, boss, here's the thing, you were injured and fell into this realm, right? This cave happens to have a restriction, and without my help, you really wouldn't be able to get out with your current strength. How about we help you, let's go together..."
Ah Ju firmly believed that this extraordinary man who had fallen from the sky was an invincible big shot, so her tone was not only gentle but also extremely flattering, which made Dongfang Mian unable to bear watching.
Only then did the devilish man carefully examine his surroundings and the restriction, and then scrutinize Dongfang Mian. "So you have the bloodline of a supreme being with all attributes. Very well, I'll give you a chance to serve me. Now hurry up and untie the ropes."
Dongfang Mian pulled Aju aside as she was about to untie the ropes, and said with a smile, "My Lord, it seems you haven't grasped the current situation. You're the one begging me to take you out, not the other way around."
The devilishly handsome man stared coldly at Dongfang Mian, who sat down on the ground in front of him and said, "It's not that I can't help you get out, but we have to agree on what benefits I'll get first."
"You dare to negotiate with me?"
“That’s right,” Dongfang Mian smiled, revealing her small white teeth. “You’re not a demon beast, so you can’t sign a contract. If you’re really a big shot, you might kill us to silence us afterward, which would leave us with no protection. So you have to offer something in exchange, something that’s very important to you, and you have to swear on your soul that you won’t cause us any trouble after you leave.”
"Anyone who dares to threaten me has already had their soul annihilated in this world," the monstrous-looking man said coldly, as if he would kill the man and the cat in the next second.
"Alright, then you can stay here for now. We'll meet again someday," he said, picking up Ah Ju and walking out.
Aju felt a sense of déjà vu as she lay in Dongfang Mian's arms. Sure enough, just as Dongfang Mian reached the barrier and was about to leave, a deep voice came from behind.
"This lord agrees to your conditions."
Turning around, Dongfang Mian greeted him with a beaming smile, "See? Wouldn't it have been better if you had done this earlier?"
Under the watchful gaze of Dongfang Mian's large, blinking eyes, the devilishly handsome man broke free of the ropes and casually tossed over a token, saying, "This is all I have left."
Dongfang Mian picked it up. The token was cold to the touch, and she didn't know what material it was made of. It exuded an evil aura, and there was a large character written on it.
"Lin, is that your name?" Dongfang Mian asked.
“Yan Lin,” the devilishly handsome man replied with his usual icy expression.
"Okay, I'll take the things. Now swear an oath."
When Yan Lin swore, Dongfang Mian fiddled with the token in her hand but couldn't figure it out. However, Aju on her shoulder felt that she had seen the token somewhere before, but she couldn't remember where.
Soon, Yan Lin swore on his soul that he would not harm Dongfang Mian and Aju, and only then did Dongfang Mian take him outside.
"Alright, Your Majesty, we must part ways after a thousand miles of farewell. I won't see you off any longer. Let's say goodbye here," Dongfang Mian said, and then turned to leave.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he turned around, his arm was grabbed. "This Venerable One needs a place to recover. Take me to your place."
