The woman from hound"s mouth was none other than Gao Lan Mei. As soon as her body dropped, and touched the ground, the aura surrounding them fell cold and dangerous quickly due to the sinister spiritual energy coming off her. Immediately, a bright force field surrounded Gao Lan Mei that stopped from the Impurities that was coming out of her body to spread to the place further.
"Jie"er? What is the meaning of this? Is this your gift to your mother? You have not even seen or visited me for a while." w.a.n.g Yin asked unhappily. It had been years since her son visited. Despite that, the first thing that she got was a woman that was in the verge of Impurity Madness.
"Mother, help me save her. My gift is this devil hound." Yen Mingjue said his voice gravely serious. After hearing this, each watched how the huge hound turned into its original size, which was as big as a huge horse.
w.a.n.g Yin snorted, "Even if that hound has s.p.a.ce pocket inside its body, that is still not enough for this woman"s life! I can"t even guarantee that I can save her!" She said, exasperated, clearly dissatisfied with her unfilial son.
"I will make it up to you, mother. I promise." Yen Mingjue coaxed.
"Tsk. I do not believe you-" w.a.n.g Yin suddenly halted her sentence, like she realized something. Her eyes brightened before she suddenly appeared next Gao Lan Mei and blurted out excitedly, "Wait, Jie"er! Tell me, this woman is my daughter-in-law, right?!"
w.a.n.g Yin was so happy, as she stared at Gao Lan Mei intently with a bright smile on her face, before frowning. "Excellent physique. This is amazing for a mortal. No, no, that is not right. She"s from the Keeper"s linage! This is amazing. She is still alive despite the high amount of Impurities inside her body. This is definitely because of her bloodline. Not only this much impurities cause any normal cultivator to suffer from Impure Madness, but they may end up exploding too eventually. Oh, what is this? I can sense Nine Paragon Poison too. A very merciful poison that only makes you sleep and not feel pain at all. Yet, this is still too bad…" w.a.n.g Yin murmured, talking to herself, as she inspected Gao Lan Mei.
w.a.n.g Yin waves her hand, then Gao Lan Mei"s body that was still covered by force field floated suddenly disappeared in a flash.
She then looked at the hound seriously, before speaking, "I will do my best to help her, Jie"er. I cannot guarantee her cultivation will not be destroyed, but at least she is alive. Mother will first make sure no other energy will enter her body. Okay? So do not be so worried…" w.a.n.g Yin was trying to a.s.sure Yen Mingjue.
Yen Mingjue did not reply. The hound head was just looking at w.a.n.g Yin.
"Jie"er… I placed her on a room that does not allow any magical properties or spiritual energy to be utilized. It is the best place for her right now. You can visit her if you want…" She offered worried about her son"s silence.
When they still did not hear any response, w.a.n.g Yin frowned. "Jie"er, are you alright?"
"Er… Your Highness… Master cut off the link…" Xiao s.h.i.+ answered instead.
"What?! That brat! He did not even tell me properly!" w.a.n.g Yin was filled with annoyance as she glared at Xiao s.h.i.+, who was not kneeling on the ground.
When w.a.n.g Yin eventually calmed down, "Did he leave any message?"
"Yes, Your Highness… The master said that he would be back soon. He also said that he needs to cover his spiritual tracks immediately. It was also not his intention to leave, but it was urgent to make sure that the master"s mother can continue to leave happy and peaceful life…" Xiao s.h.i.+ said solemnly and respectfully.
w.a.n.g Yin was one of the Death G.o.d"s consorts. She might not have that majestic high status in the Underworld, but Xiao s.h.i.+ knew that someone who could escape the Underworld and not receive punishment for it was someone terrifying.
Of course, most of it was not from Yen Mingjue, but Xiao s.h.i.+ needed to say. In truth Yen Mingjue only said two sentences as commands: "I will be back soon. Make sure mother keep Little Sister alive."
w.a.n.g Yin snorted, "Never mind. Follow me." She then turned around and leisurely walked back to the shop. Xiao s.h.i.+ and the two girls that were w.a.n.g Yin"s disciples followed closely behind.
Xiao was not sure if w.a.n.g Yin believed her. What she needs to make sure was for Gao Lan Mei to be alive after this. It did not matter if Gao Lan Mei became a cripple or a YinYing without a master or any goal in life.
After some time, they arrived at the back of the shop. There was a wide-open courtyard that has many rooms.
They walked further and stopped across one room that was not connected to any other rooms. It has a stone door that looked heavy.
More than half of the door has runes engraved on it, while the rest was embedded with golden metal. In front of it as well, was a stone tower that was as high as the room"s roof. While the door was blood ruby in color, the walls surrounding it, were the color of ash.
Most of the walls were engraved with runes that Xiao s.h.i.+ did not have any idea what it was for or means.
Everyone, even w.a.n.g Yin, just stood in front of the stone tower and did not step further.
Since w.a.n.g Yin was in front of them, no one knew what her expression at that time.
"We can only stand here and wait for the meantime. This stone tower is the boundary. If we pa.s.sed the stone tower, we could not use any more magic or spiritual energy." w.a.n.g Yin said.
Xiao s.h.i.+ then asked carefully, "Your Highness, can she be saved?"
