"Wake up, wake up, you idiot Xue."
A wave of dizziness accompanied by ringing in her ears caused the white-haired girl to slowly open her eyes, her consciousness gradually returning to itself.
"Um...Where is my master...where is my senior brother!?"
The girl suddenly opened her eyes, waking up from her weakness, but did not see anyone she expected.
"You still ask? We're all waiting to ask you, where has your right to speak gone?"
They didn't even make it to the finals, and this is what happened after we came here.
What on earth happened here?!
The colorful-haired dragon girl in front of her said anxiously, noting that there was a lot of blood around, and judging from her expression, she seemed to know who the blood came from.
"Xiao Le, I've already sent people to search. Nothing found?"
The gray-haired, blue-eyed mermaid's face showed a rare expression of worry.
"The right to free speech cannot suddenly disappear; something must have happened to him."
Just now, when I used the magical artifact he gave me to locate him, although it broke immediately, I still managed to determine that he was no longer in Shuitian City, but seemed to be... on his way to the capital.
The silver-eared catwoman blinked her beautiful eyes, hesitated for a moment, and then decided to share the information.
"What on earth happened...?"
The colorful-haired dragon girl frowned and said, and the scene fell into a long silence once again...

In the dimly lit wooden house, Yan Quan gradually regained consciousness.
Although he was awake and unrestrained, he lay quietly for a long time, staring calmly and dimly at the wooden roof.
The early morning light outside revealed that the wooden house was quite ornate, made of extraordinary materials.
The severe abdominal pain had subsided considerably, roughly several months had passed, and he was now aboard a celestial ship.
"Oh, you're awake? It's nice to see you again..."
The sudden appearance of a face that was not exactly familiar did not surprise Yan Quan much. He remained calm, and his eyes seemed devoid of any emotion.
"The Fox Clan? Where is the celestial ship headed?"
Yan Quan glanced again at the blue-haired male fox demon with his face half-covered at the door, and asked weakly.
"The capital city, I never imagined you had a connection with the Lord. This truly shocks me."
How could that high and mighty person have anything to do with humans?
How could someone promise such great benefits to another human being for the sake of a mere human being…?
The fox demon leaned against the doorway and said with a light laugh.
"...If it can relieve the hatred in my heart, then it is worth it."
Yan Quan closed his eyes and said, recalling how he had ruthlessly eliminated Duan Li and his descendants, he was in a great mood.
But nothing mattered now. He lay down on his side, not intending to pay any more attention to this guy.
“A grudge in my heart? ...I really can’t understand what could have happened between my pure and noble lord and someone like you…”
"Hmm? It seems you don't want to say anything more. Fine, I thought you'd want to know what the current situation is."
"I think you want to know what the situation is, right?"
What, are you afraid it will be detrimental to your lord?
Indeed, when a sudden and incomprehensible event occurs, and the Lord doesn't reveal any information to you, you're bound to be anxious, right?
How about this, you let me go, and we'll all be at peace. We're both afraid something might happen, aren't we?"
Yan Quan chuckled lightly, but the moment he moved, the sharp pain in his abdomen returned, making him abandon the idea of getting up.
“I’m not stupid enough to let you go. My lord has many talented people around him, and he’s not afraid that you can pose any threat in your current state.”
The smile in the male fox demon's eyes froze instantly. Realizing that Yan Quan wouldn't say anything, he turned to leave.
"Then why not just kill me now? I'm so badly injured anyway, it's not impossible for me to die unexpectedly..."
"What……?"
The male fox demon was indeed startled by Yan Quan's words, then turned around, his eyes showing a hint of coldness.
He slowly stepped forward, looking at the weak Yan Quan, and understood a little that he might be afraid of what he would encounter later, or that his Dao heart had collapsed and he wanted to die.
However, this is indeed the best way to minimize uncertainty, so...
