"Stop rambling over there, where is the body of the Witch?" Xiang Xueer frowned and asked Serpent Empress.
"I can tell you, but you need to help me first. I won't make a loss in this deal!" Serpent Empress cunningly rolled its eyes, looking genuinely eager to eliminate that Masked Man. Xiang Xueer found herself believing it somewhat.
After hesitating for a moment, Xiang Xueer finally nodded, "Alright, it's a deal, but you must first take me to see the body of the Witch, then I will consider helping you get rid of that Masked Man."
A satisfied smile finally appeared on Serpent Empress's face as it turned and walked towards the opposite direction, "Okay, just follow me!"
Not yet informing Li Yunyang and the others, she thought it best to find the body of the Witch first before considering notifying everyone. They would need their help to extract the soul of the Witch from her own body.
Having agreed to Serpent Empress's request, the two left Sky Beyond Mountain in search of the body of the Witch. Meanwhile, things did not seem well on Li Yunyang's side either. After a while, Feng Qingyang finally stabilized his internal injuries and slowly opened his eyes.
"Master, how do you feel?" Li Yunyang anxiously looked at him as his complexion gradually improved, feeling somewhat relieved.
"I'm fine!" Feng Qingyang stood up and smiled upon seeing his long-lost disciple. However, the smile quickly faded as he turned to look worriedly at the now quiet Demon Prison Tower, sighing, "The most troublesome thing right now is still this."
"You are Qingtian from the Blue Dye Clan?" Feng Qingyang turned to look at Qingtian, sizing him up. The family crest on his arm was easily recognizable. Lan Ran Qingtian quickly nodded, "Senior Feng, I am Qingtian!"
"Yes, there is something very important I need you to do!" Feng Qingyang said with a serious expression as he looked at him. "Although the Demon Prison Tower is temporarily stable, it's only because of the recent commotion; the power of the Demon Lord has been exhausted. However, if he recovers, this tower could collapse at any moment."
As Feng Qingyang spoke, he walked over to Thorns: "I will stay here to guard the base of the Demon Prison Tower. Qingtian, as one of the Holy Ten Exorcists, you need to go send word via flying messenger to notify all the experts at the level of Saint Ten to come here. My power is limited; only by gathering ten experts can we possibly seal the Demon Lord in this tower again."
I see now; this is what Feng Qingyang had in mind. However, as soon as he finished speaking, Lan Ran Qingtian began to worry: "Senior Feng, while your idea is good, I only know a few experts who are often away from home; most are wandering around and may not be easy to contact!"
"Qingtian makes a valid point. Remember that Elder Gu Liu Ma? It took quite some effort just to find him!" Lian Cheng Xue expressed similar concerns.
"If only Shirley were here; she would definitely come up with a better plan!" When Li Yunyang mentioned Xiang Xueer, everyone couldn't help but worry about her.
“Shirley? Who is that?” Feng Qingyang turned to look at the unusually expressive faces of the group and asked further.
After a moment of hesitation, Li Yunyang tentatively probed Feng Qingyang’s thoughts: “Actually, it’s the Witch from earlier. Shirley's soul shares a body with the Witch. It’s quite complicated and can’t be explained in just a few words!”
Hmm? Two souls in one body? Feng Qingyang frowned upon hearing this: “Alright, stop mentioning that Witch. If she dares to show up again, I will definitely kill her!”
After saying that, he turned and walked towards the Thorns: “Your most important task now is to find Saint Ten’s Exorcist. Before that Witch strikes again, if we’re late, this world will truly be in ruins!”
“Yes!” The three immediately nodded in agreement. Feng Qingyang rushed towards the Demon Prison Tower, leaving the three behind to sigh: “This is troublesome. If Master really wants to kill her, the three of us might not be able to stop him.”
Forget about that for now; let’s split up and notify Saint Ten Exorcists across the country. We should re-seal the Demon Lord first before considering Shirley’s situation.
Indeed, for now, we must set aside personal feelings and save the Common People from disaster; that is what matters most. Xiang Xueer is clever and resourceful; she won’t die easily.
Lan Ran Qingtian and the others returned to the Exorcist Station, hoping to find more information there, but the entry fee was quite steep.
“Information on the Holy Ten Exorcists costs ten thousand taels!” Xiangling noticed Li Yunyang and Lian Cheng Xue still wearing their usual expressions, but Qingtian received different treatment as she smiled brightly at him.
“Seriously? The Demon Prison Tower is about to collapse, and you still want to charge? You’ll have to collect fees from Yama soon!” Li Yunyang glared at Xiangling, extremely displeased: “This woman only cares about money.”
“Still hoping for handsome men,” Lian Cheng Xue secretly leaned closer to Li Yunyang, whispering: “Why not let Qingtian use her charm instead?”
“Why don’t you go?” Li Yunyang stared at Lian Cheng Xue for a long time. He sighed helplessly: “She wouldn’t look at me. If it comes down to it, sacrificing a bit of charm for saving the Common People wouldn’t be a problem!”
“Pfft.” Li Yunyang covered his mouth and chuckled softly: “Forget it. With how she looks, such a good opportunity should go to Qingtian.”
The two men behind were exchanging remarks, completely forgetting how critical the current situation was. Lan Ran Qingtian's face darkened with anger as he turned to glare at them, scolding, "You two, you have no sense of urgency at all. If Shirley were here, she would definitely give you both a good talking-to!"
Qingtian was getting anxious, almost sweating. The two men quickly fell silent. He turned to Xiangling and said, "Xiangling, this is a matter of life and death for the human world. At this moment, we shouldn't be so concerned about money or personal gains and losses. If the Demon Lord really breaks out of the Demon Prison Tower, what will this world become..."
Lan Ran Qingtian spoke passionately, full of grand principles, which moved Xiangling deeply. "Qingtian, what you said is so wonderful; I’m really touched!"
"Yes, so at this critical moment for the survival of the human realm, Xiangling, I need you to tell us all the information about the experts from Saint Ten!" Lan Ran Qingtian said earnestly as he grasped Xiangling's shoulder. The woman indeed listened to him and immediately shared all the information she had.
"Wow, impressive!" Li Yunyang couldn't help but give a thumbs up, exclaiming, "Goodness, we've saved a hundred thousand taels of silver just like that!"
Lian Cheng Xue nodded in admiration. "In critical moments like this, it's still Qingtian who remains calm and decisive."
After some searching, Qingtian finally obtained all the information about Saint Ten. He noted down the addresses and wrote a secret letter. Taking out the seal of Saint Ten from his belongings, he stamped it on top.
Once Lan Ran Qingtian had prepared the secret letter, Xiangling rushed into the room behind them and brought out several cages. Li Yunyang looked closely and saw they were all cages containing red-feathered eagles.
"Wow, they're eagles!" Li Yunyang and Lian Cheng Xue exclaimed as they approached to admire the unique eagles in the cages, each adorned with a red satin ribbon around their necks.
"You have no idea; these are messenger eagles specifically trained for Exorcists to deliver letters. They can travel a thousand miles in a day!" Xiangling tied all the letters to the eagles' legs and nodded. "It's done. If nothing goes wrong, they should receive the letters within two days at most."
"Let’s hope they stay put during this time," Lan Ran Qingtian said as he released the ten messenger eagles into the sky. The ten eagles circled for a moment before dispersing in all directions.
