The scene was chaotic.
Upon seeing this situation, Shen Zhuochuan's men, who had been lying in ambush around Yunlou, all sprang into action and took control of the exposed top-level managers.
Song Siyao flew to her sister's side, picked up her sword, and was about to chop down the iron cage that was in her way.
After being struck by Shen Zhuochuan's earth-shattering sword, Li Guang trembled violently. Now, understanding its master's thoughts, Li Guang slashed down on its own without her intervention.
...
Nothing happened.
It even struck a lightning bolt.
With her hands bound, Song Tingwan sat on the ground, tilting her head back and saying gently, "This thing is special; it can't be broken."
Song Siyao squatted down in front of her, his face frighteningly grim. "Did they hurt you?"
The older sister herself cherishes her health. As long as she is not injured, although her complexion is paler and more delicate than that of ordinary people, it will not be this pale.
If she weren't tied up, Song Tingwan really wanted to touch her sister's face and tell her not to worry.
She smiled gently, "It was just a lightning strike from this cage, nothing serious. You arrived just in time, they didn't have time to do anything."
Even though she was the one who was trapped, she was still comforting Song Siyao.
"Detain the officials and take the rest of the injured and persecuted back to their homes."
After giving his orders, Shen Zhuochuan came up and, seeing her appearance, suppressed his anger and borrowed Li Guang from Song Siyao again.
He fused his natal purple fire into his sword energy, and with a light, effortless slash, the power was immense. The cage split in two, and with a snap, the lightning rope that had been tightly binding her wrists disappeared along with the cage's destruction.
All that remained were the glaring red marks on his two wrists.
As spiritual energy flowed back into her body, Song Tingwan's complexion eased somewhat.
She took a healing pill herself, and only then did the feeling of weakness and powerlessness subside.
Then, one hand on each arm helped her up from the ground.
Song Tingwan was startled, and looked around after regaining her balance.
Both faces were cold and angry.
One was A Yao, holding Li Guang, furious and eager to try and even smash the building.
One is the coldness of suppressed anger and intimidation.
"You've all been unusually quiet today."
Staring intently at the kneeling steward of the broken high-rise building across the street, Song Siyao tightened her grip on her elder sister upon hearing this, "Is he the one who tried to harm you, elder sister?"
Song Tingwan glanced at the trembling manager opposite her and smiled gently.
"Bring him here for me."
Song Siyao glanced at Shen Zhuochuan, who stood beside her elder sister with a sullen face, and then flew away.
After A Yao left, Shen Zhuochuan composed himself and sighed with her:
"The mess you left behind almost got you into trouble."
When something goes wrong in the area under his jurisdiction, Shen Zhuochuan feels the most guilty.
Song Tingwan smiled gently, "Then you owe me one more time. Think about how to make it up to me."
He lowered his gaze and said with a smile, "I've found traces of the Frostflower for you. I wonder if this can make up for anything."
Upon hearing this, the woman froze, then excitedly grabbed his arm, "Really?"
Shen Zhuochuan nodded. "After you told me that the whereabouts of the Fuyao Immortal Flower were at the top of the Cloud Palace, I searched for two days according to the description in the picture. It was also the news that your sister and the others received before they came. Those people call it the Leap Spirit Flower, and it will be auctioned at the auction in two days."
This is the best news I've received recently.
It also made her eyes sparkle with delight and surprise.
When Song Siyao brought the person over, he saw the two of them chatting happily.
The girl threw Steward Gu to the ground and said fiercely, "Sister, what should we do with him?"
Manager Gu looked at Song Tingwan in horror, then glanced at Shen Zhuochuan out of the corner of his eye and suddenly kowtowed repeatedly.
With his mouth gagged, he could only kowtow forcefully, hoping to calm them down.
Upon receiving news of the Frostflower, Song Tingwan lowered her eyes with pleasure, even smiling slightly as she looked at the person.
“I’ve said it before, if you think the furnace cultivation method is a good thing, you should try it out.”
The moment she said that, the two people next to her, who hadn't even had a chance to ask what had happened, exploded.
Shen Zhuochuan laughed, his spiritual energy forming a palm that gripped Shen Zhuochuan's neck. Song Siyao, unusually free of Li Guang, rolled up his sleeves and punched Shen Zhuochuan with spiritual energy.
Both of them were mindful of what Song Tingwan said, and wanted to keep him alive so they could experience it for themselves. They used force, but didn't kill him.
Then, Baili Xijiang and the other two, who arrived a step too late, were stunned by the scene. "What's going on?"
Did he hurt Wan'er?
Wanqiji also kept his eyes fixed on Steward Gu.
Song Siyao paused for a moment, smiled at them, and said, "He wants my sister to cultivate the Furnace Cauldron Manual."
The mocking laughter and explosive words left the remaining three stunned for a full three breaths.
Then he rolled up his sleeves and joined the battle.
"Go ahead and beat him! I'll keep him alive. How dare you! How dare you plot against my master like this!"
The little black dragon was so angry that the scales on its neck burst open. Shen Zhuochuan loosened his grip slightly, causing the person on the verge of suffocation to gasp for breath, leaving them without even the strength to howl.
"Let them vent their anger, why are you getting involved?" Song Tingwan looked at the man beside her with amusement.
Shen Zhuochuan lowered his head slightly, his voice low: "I also want to vent my anger."
After saying that, he raised his deep eyes slightly, as if asking if it was not allowed.
She smiled helplessly, sat back wearily, and a chair materialized behind her.
"They said before that you couldn't do anything to them, that you had some kind of guardian spirit." Manager Gu's words made her somewhat puzzled.
Everyone knows that there are only three Venerable Ones at the top of the Cloud Palace, so where did another guardian deity come from?
Mentioning this, Shen Zhuochuan looked up at the sky and whispered to her, "It's a bit complicated, and I can't explain it in a short time."
