The dungeon of the Palace of Bliss was dark and damp, with two rats even strolling around in one corner.
Seeing herself imprisoned, Zhao Yuwei felt a sense of despair.
Beside him, Bai Zhao's arm wound was so bad that the bone was visible, indicating that the injury was quite serious.
“We’ll never get out of here. Su Xuerou is too ruthless. We’ll all die here.”
Upon hearing Zhao Yuwei's desperate cry, Bai Zhao chuckled and said, "Your thinking is too pessimistic. I don't think so."
Seeing that Bai Zhao still harbored illusions about leaving, Zhao Yuwei glanced at him and said, "I'll give you a quick death first, and then I'll kill myself."
With no guards watching over them, Zhao Yuwei felt that now was the best time to commit suicide.
Otherwise, if Su Xuerou had someone guarding them, even suicide would have been the most troublesome thing for the two of them.
Seeing Zhao Yuwei's determination to die, Bai Zhao quickly grabbed her arm: "As long as we live, we have a chance to kill Su Xuerou."
“We can’t even get out of this dungeon, how could we possibly have a chance to kill someone?”
Zhao Yuwei's face was full of bitterness. She felt that she might spend the rest of her life here, never able to help the Spirit Sword Sect in the slightest.
However, Bai Zhao didn't think so, and snorted coldly: "Haven't you figured it out yet? The reason Su Xuerou didn't kill you is because she couldn't bear to kill you."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Yuwei looked surprised, not understanding why he would say such a thing.
Having been by Su Xuerou's side for years, he had never noticed this, and he really couldn't figure out the reason.
Why?
"The cultivation technique that Su Xuerou practices is very likely a demonic art, otherwise she could not possibly have such a strong desire."
Bai Zhao and Su Xuerou had fought before. At his peak, Bai Zhao was easily crushed by Su Xuerou, and Su Xuerou even left a trace of the power of her cultivation technique in his body.
By analyzing the remaining power, Bai Zhao could discern some clues.
“Other holy bodies below the Nascent Soul stage can alleviate the problem, but her strength has already surpassed that of the Nascent Soul stage. Only the Frost Holy Body possesses such power.”
At this point, Bai Zhao glanced at Zhao Yuwei and said, "If I'm not mistaken, your physique should be the Ice Dragon Holy Body."
Now that the two are in jail, there's no need to hide these things anymore. He nodded slightly and said, "Indeed, the Yin body."
"I suspect you must be her perfect dual cultivation partner, and you would never be affected by her brilliance."
Based on his own insight, Bai Zhao shared all his guesses, hoping to dissuade Zhao Yuwei from committing suicide.
Upon hearing Bai Zhao's analysis, Zhao Yuwei was filled with shock: "You actually managed to guess so much?"
"Su Xuerou won't kill you; you have the best chance of killing her."
The reason he was willing to die for Zhao Yuwei was because he hoped someone would avenge him.
Otherwise, what would be the point of him sweeping the floor in the Palace of Bliss every day?
At this moment, Bai Zhao struggled to the dungeon entrance. Seeing that there was no one in the corridor, a fleeting desire crossed his mind.
"Next, I will teach you a set of techniques. I hope you will study them well and not let me down."
When Zhao Yuwei learned that Bai Zhao wanted to impart all his skills to her, she was shocked and waved her hands repeatedly.
The techniques are accumulated over a lifetime, and only direct disciples have the ability to receive such a transmission.
Bai Zhao, on the other hand, didn't care about such things and snorted coldly: "I don't even know if I can get out. Passing this set of techniques on to you means that the roots haven't been severed."
Taking advantage of the absence of the guards at the door, Bai Zhao approached Zhao Yuwei and used the Life-Giving Technique: "Look carefully, make sure you don't miss anything."
There were many guards inside and outside the dungeon, so he couldn't keep practicing his cultivation technique there indefinitely.
Otherwise, if they find out, he might lose his life.
Many people around them fixed their eyes on the two of them: "They've come all the way to the dungeon, yet they still have the mind to cultivate. I really don't know what use they are."
Judging from their clothes and stubble, they had clearly been there for quite some time.
In order to suppress the demonic power within her body, Su Xuerou captured many famous figures.
Zhao Yuwei initially thought she had killed everyone, but now she discovers that they are all in the dungeon.
Soon, Bai Zhao circulated the technique once and looked up at Zhao Yuwei: "How was it? Did you see it clearly? This technique is only considered not lost if it is passed on to you."
In his eyes, the spiritual power within his body was clearly showing signs of weakening.
If we don't take this opportunity to pass on the technique, we will never have the chance to pass it on to others in the future.
Seeing Bai Zhao demonstrate the technique in front of her, Zhao Yuwei quietly closed her eyes and briefly reviewed it in her mind.
Seeing that Zhao Yuwei was recalling her cultivation technique, Bai Zhao moved aside and said, "Practice it for me."
Now that he's by my side to guide me, I can learn any kind of technique without having to worry about so many things.
Before long, Zhao Yuwei came to his side, sat cross-legged on the ground, and began to cast the Life-Giving Technique.
As soon as she used this technique, her cultivation level became even more powerful.
Just then, footsteps could be heard coming from the corridor.
Worried that someone might discover them, Bai Zhao gently patted Zhao Yuwei's shoulder, signaling her to temporarily pull herself out of that state.
Soon after, Zhao Yuwei came out of her meditation and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Your food is here. Enjoy it, because this might be your last meal."
Bai Zhao and Zhao Yuwei exchanged a glance upon hearing what the guard said, their faces filled with shock.
They never imagined that even the guards wouldn't know if they would die.
After a hearty meal and drinks, the guards sat down at the table and began playing drinking games.
Zhao Yuwei continued to cultivate the Life-Giving Technique, hoping to gradually improve her skills.
Before we knew it, the sky was gradually brightening.
Footsteps could be heard again in the corridor.
Zhao Yuwei quietly opened her eyes and found two beautiful women standing at the dungeon entrance, their faces full of mocking smiles.
"Isn't this Su Xuerou's favored concubine? How could she end up in such a place? It's so pitiful."
Seeing how they were beating a drowning dog, Bai Zhao didn't say anything more.
He was well aware that his status was too lowly, and if he took the initiative to speak out, he might only provoke them to attack him.
At this moment, a guard walked over from a distance, carrying a large bunch of keys in his hand.
Meiji watched as the guards approached, then pointed at Zhao Yuwei and said, "Open the dungeon door. I need to take her to the arena."
When they learned that Meiji was going to take the person away, they looked embarrassed and showed no intention of opening the door.
No matter how deep the conflict was between Meiji and Zhao Yuwei, they wouldn't dare let her go without Su Xuerou's orders.
"This is a written order; Su Xuerou instructs us to take her there."
The guards reluctantly opened the dungeon door only after they saw that they had a written order in their hands.
