At three o'clock in the morning, the servants of the Blood Prison Mansion had already gone to sleep. Only a few maids who were on night watch were still walking along the corridors, carrying long lanterns.

In a small pavilion in the garden outside the bedroom, Yun Jiujiu, wearing a white dress, a collar, and shackles, sat barefoot on a stone bench, sipping the little remaining wine in her jade gourd, with the word "impatient" written all over her face.

Today, she and Feng Yu Die brought the three Sword Sect disciples back to the Blood Prison Mansion. Worried that Ye Anping would be exposed because of this matter, they threw the three people directly into the prison behind the mansion and told the demonic cultivators in the mansion that "Elder Liang will personally interrogate them later."

At that time, except for the person who was stabbed in the chest by Ye Anping's sword and was slightly injured, the other two people just fainted. At first glance, it didn't seem like a big deal, so she and Feng Yu Die didn't pay attention to them.

But for some unknown reason, when Feng Yu Die went to check on them, she found that the three people were still unconscious and with dark blood foaming at their mouths as if they had been poisoned. Their lives seemed to hang by a thread.

Yun Jiujiu knew nothing about healing and couldn't help.

Feng Yu Die knew a little, but after checking, she shook her head and said she didn't know what was going on.

The three people were now prisoners, so they naturally couldn't ask the demonic doctors to treat them, and none of the pills in their bags worked.

Yun Jiujiu stood on tiptoe, looking around expectantly like a young wife waiting for her husband to return from the army. She even felt that the wine in her jade gourd had gone bad and she could not drink it.

She knew the gravity of the situation. Her brother-in-law hadn't come back yet, which meant that he was busy.

Exposing his identity in order to save the three people, would be too much of a loss.

But knowing and accepting were two different things.

Seeing the disciples who had once shared a drink with her die in such an inexplicable way, she naturally felt very uncomfortable.

"Damn it, why hasn't my brother-in-law come back yet?! I'm so worried..."

Yun Jiujiu complained unconsciously and looked around again. As if the heavens heard her words, a black shadow suddenly flashed over the back wall of the Blood Prison Mansion and landed on the roof. Seeing her there, the shadow landed in front of her.

Because "Liang Daliu" should be spending the night with Gong Tianchan at this time, Ye Anping was afraid of exposing his presence, so when he came back, he avoided places with people and made a small detour to return to the Blood Prison Mansion.

Seeing Ye Anping coming back, Yun Jiujiu's frown finally relaxed. She stood up and ran over with the shackles weighing a hundred pounds on her feet.

Dong dong...

"Brother!! ...Woo—"

Ye Anping reacted fast and before she shouted the first word, he flashed in front of her and covered her mouth, then gave Xiao Tian a look to help him watch the surroundings. He scolded her with a frown. "How many times have I told you? You shout so loudly, are you afraid that the servants in the mansion can't hear you? There are many spies of Gong Yimo and Gong Yue in this Blood Prison Mansion."

"Anping, most of the servants in the mansion are asleep, no one heard it."

"Woo... um..."

Yun Jiujiu looked at her brother-in-law who was half her height taller and nodded slightly.

Ye Anping looked around, then let go of her mouth and asked, "Did anything happen when I was away? Where's Yu Die?"

"Ah... brother-in-law, it was fine when I brought Hu Feng and the others back this afternoon, but they suddenly started vomiting black blood just now. I didn't dare to call for help, and the pills didn't work..."

"Vomiting black blood?"

Ye Anping frowned and was a little confused, wondering what happened.

He had sneaked back because he was afraid that something unexpected might happen on Feng Yu Die and Yun Jiujiu's side. In the end, something really happened.

No matter what, the immortal disciples should be saved, and if they couldn't be saved, let them have an easy ending.

"Brother-in-law, do you have a way to save them?"

"It's hard to say. Be prepared for the worst. Are there any jailers guarding the prison in the back?"

"No, I sent two pots of drugged wine to the two demonic cultivators before, and they are sleeping like dead pigs now."

"Okay... I'll go and take a look."

Yun Jiujiu nodded, and then subconsciously hugged Ye Anping's arm, causing him to stop and look at her after just one step.

?

"Anything else?"

Yun Jiujiu's move had been subconsciously made. After realizing what she did, she slowly let go and her round face, which was pale in the moonlight, suddenly showed a little panic. After a moment of silence, she explained. "...Don't I have to act as your human furnace, brother-in-law?"

"No one is watching now."

"Oh..."

Ye Anping didn't pay attention to her and walked out of the moon-shaped door of the garden quickly, then turned on a deserted path to the entrance of the prison dungeon behind the Blood Prison Mansion where the criminals were imprisoned.

At the door, two jailers in the Foundation Building stage had been knocked down by the drugged wine and were slumped on the table, drooling.

Ye Anping threw them a glance and quickly walked past them with Yun Jiujiu. He pushed open the stone door and walked down the tunnel.

The long corridor with stone steps seemed bottomless, and the spirit stone lamps hanging on the walls on both sides flickered with dim green ghostly lights.

The two of them walked down the corridor past thirteen cells with iron bars before arriving at the innermost interrogation room, which was blocked by an iron door with a restriction.

The moment Ye Anping pushed open the door, a golden spiritual light spread out from inside.

Feng Yu Die was sitting cross-legged in the middle of the torture chamber, and in front of her were the three disciples of the Sword Sect, who were chained to wooden frames. She was using her Spring Phase spiritual energy to keep the three of them alive.

"Yu Die..."

"Young Master Ye, you are here..."

Feng Yu Die turned her head happily when she heard Ye Anping's voice, but Ye Anping raised his hand to stop her.

The three of them looked like corpses. Their eyes were sunken, and black blood was dripping from the corners of their mouths.

Ye Anping stepped forward and grabbed one of the men's wrists, then released his spiritual sense to investigate. Seeing this, Xiao Tian simply dove into the belly of the female cultivator, hanging on her belly button and twisting her body left and right.

Yun Jiujiu came forward with an expectant look, looking at her brother-in-law eagerly, and did not dare to disturb him. It was not until Ye Anping opened his eyes that she asked anxiously, "Brother-in-law, can these three be saved?"

"The demonic energy has entered their core..."

Yun Jiujiu did not understand. "What?"

Ye Anping's expression was troubled, and he hesitantly touched the storage bag at his waist, wanting to take out the dagger to send the three away.

If he could find out how they got themselves into this state, there might be a chance of saving them. But now, the three of them were unconscious, and he had not yet found out the cause of their illness. Rushing to treat them would only aggravate the symptoms, and there was no time to investigate carefully at the moment, so it would be better to let them rest in peace and end their suffering.

Glancing at Yun Jiujiu and Feng Yu Die in silence, Ye Anping wanted to send them outside to wait.

However, with a "pop~" sound, Xiao Tian pulled her head out of the belly button of the female cultivator and said with a disgusted look, "Anping, they seem to have been infected with demonic energies after eating the meat of a demonic cultivator, but they have not yet completely digested it. They should have eaten it this morning."

Feng Yu Die couldn't understand what she said. "Eh?"

But Ye Anping understood immediately.

These three people must have eaten the raw meat of a demonic cultivator in order to sneak into Heavenly Sorrow City, so it's no wonder that the city guards had let them in.

They never considered getting out of Heavenly Sorrow City alive...

"There is hope."

"Really?!"

Yun Jiujiu's eyes lit up, full of admiration, and Ye Anping did not know what to say for a moment.

He felt that Yun Jiujiu seemed to be less rude after he had disciplined her. He shook his head slightly. "What I said, counts. Yu Die, take them down and lay them flat on the ground..."

"Okay!"

Since it was only this morning that they had eaten the flesh of the demonic cultivator, things were not that bad.

The demonic energy in the three people's bodies was just like when he and his sister ate poisonous insects when they were young. By removing the flesh and blood of the demonic cultivator that was the source of that rotten energy, and then clearing the demonic energy from the meridians and golden core, there should be no problem in keeping them alive.

As for future cultivation, it depended on these three people's luck.

Ye Anping sat cross-legged on the ground, closed his eyes, and concentrated his energy, sending it to the sword finger of his right hand. He suddenly remembered the time when he and his sister sweetly fed each other poisonous parasites.

He actually kinda missed it. When his sister was eating, he would tie her to a chair, open her mouth, and stuff the little thing inside. When it was his turn, his sister would tie him up and stuff the fresh little things into his mouth.

However, even if they ate insects that had been detoxified once, they almost died from the poison of these little things several times.

At that time, he also practiced the method of using spiritual energy as a knife to clean the meridians.

Although the demonic energy in the three people was much more serious, he was now a Nascent Soul cultivator.

Ye Anping calmed his mind and focused on manipulating his spiritual energy through the three disciples' meridians. Soon, accompanied by vomiting sounds, the rotting flesh they had swallowed was disgorged out of their mouths.

Feng Yu Die saw that Ye Anping's forehead was sweating, but she didn't say anything. She simply knelt beside him and wiped his sweat with her sleeves.

"Hehe..."

Yun Jiujiu looked at the two people and felt a little weird.

On the one hand, this No-bird was a good match for her brother-in-law, and on the other hand, her brother-in-law... He could do anything, had a sharp mind, was good at fighting, and was also her grandfather's direct disciple. And from her sister's words, he was also good in bed...

How could there be such a person in this world? Didn't her brother-in-law have any shortcomings?

Yun Jiujiu thought for a long time before finally finding one: he looked too feminine and not masculine enough.

She still liked the kind of face with clear contours, sharp edges, and muscles...

But then again, her brother-in-law should be considered very handsome...

Staring at Ye Anping's profile and thinking about random things, Yun Jiujiu's facial expression changed every three breaths, which made Feng Yu Die, who was wiping Ye Anping's sweat, look confused. She didn't know what she was doing, but she didn't dare to speak and disturb Ye Anping.

The silence in the torture room lasted for about half an hour, and it was broken by Ye Anping's sigh. "Phew..."

He retracted his spiritual energy and opened his eyes with a tired look.

In the past, when he and his sister were clearing the poison in their meridians, they were only in the Body Forging and Qi Refining stage. The energy consumed by clearing the meridians of the three Core Formation cultivators far exceeded Ye Anping's expectations.

Just when Ye Anping wanted to stand up, his vision went black. He lost his balance, leaning toward Yun Jiujiu.

When Yun Jiujiu saw this, she quickly prepared to catch him, but before he fell over, Feng Yu Die on the other side quickly hugged Ye Anping's waist and pulled him toward her.

"Young Master Ye?!"

"It's nothing, I just consumed too much energy..."

He had just taught Sister Gu a lesson, then he helped the three Core Formation cultivators to purge the demonic energy. This was much more tiring than spending a night with Xuanji, the Hero. After all, Xuanji still took care of him and gave him time to rest and recuperate.

Leaning against Feng Yu Die's chest, Ye Anping took out four pills from his storage bag, took one himself, and asked Yun Jiujiu to give each of the three people one. Then, he began to condense his energy and regulate his breathing.

He added with a smile, "Jiujiu, these three pills and the consultation fee will be on your account..."

"...Oh."

When Yun Jiujiu moved over to feed the pills to the three disciples, she frowned slightly when she saw the two people leaning against each other, but in the end, she ignored them. She squeezed the mouths of the Sword Wine Peak disciples and sent the pills down their throats, then distributed her spiritual energy to them.

With the help of the top-grade pills, one of them soon opened his eyes. When he saw the Second Lady kneeling beside him with a collar around her neck, he stood up and shouted hoarsely as if he was over-excited. "How dare you..."

Ye Anping had taken off the human skin mask when he punished Gu Mingxin and didn't wear it at this time. When the man sat up and saw Ye Anping's handsome face, he felt that he looked familiar.

But the next moment, Yun Jiujiu slapped him on the back of his head.

Bang—

"Hu Feng!! This is your lifesaver!! You still curse... Why don't you kowtow to thank Master Ye?!"

"Ah..." Hu Feng was confused and turned his head to look at Yun Jiujiu behind him.

He didn't understand the current situation at all and asked, "Huh? What?..."

Seeing that someone woke up, Ye Anping slowly opened his eyes and couldn't help but sigh, seeing as the disciples of the Sword Wine Peak were all carved out of Yun Jiujiu's mold. He said, "I am the Master of the Hundred Lotus Sect, Ye Anping."

"Ah… brother-in-law? Why are you here? Where is this place?"

"Heavenly Sorrow City, Blood Prison Mansion. I am now using the alias Liang Daliu. The Second Lady will explain the rest."

Ye Anping answered calmly before standing up. "I'm going to rest. Jiujiu, you take care of them..."

Yun Jiujiu nodded obediently. "Ah… Okay."

Ye Anping stood up, glanced at her, then turned and left. Feng Yu Die looked around and naturally chased after him, hugging his right arm.

Watching the two walk out of the torture room, Yun Jiujiu pulled the collar around her neck and stood up. "Well, I was captured, and the Young Master happened to be there, so he saved me. Why are you here?"

"We… we are here to save you, Sister Jiujiu! We killed a demonic cultivator outside, and we each cut a piece of meat and ate it, so we were infected with demonic energy. We sneaked into the city and tried to find a chance to rescue you."

As Hu Feng spoke, he saw that their big sister was fine and had no problem at all, and suddenly he was very excited. "Sister Jiujiu, it's great that you're okay!!! The Eldest Lady released your obituary, saying that you died at the hands of the demonic cultivators, but when we found out that you were still alive, we thought… oh my… Sister Jiujiu..."

Yun Jiujiu rolled her eyes at him and kicked him in the face. "Oh my… are you annoying, crying like a sissy."

Then, she sat down, looking at the other two. "Take good care of your wounds and regulate your breathing. After you recover, go and kowtow to Master Ye fifty times. If it weren't for him, I would have to burn incense for you three next year."

"Ah... yes." Hu Feng shrank his head and calmed down a little now. "So the eldest brother-in-law is here. The Eldest Lady doesn't even know he is here. The eldest brother-in-law is really amazing. He even became an Elder..."

Hearing this "eldest brother-in-law", Yun Jiujiu was inexplicably irritated and couldn't help but punch him. "Damn it, you keep calling "eldest brother-in-law". Is Yun Yiyi your sister?"

"Ah? But Master Ye is the eldest brother-in-law..."

Yun Jiujiu pouted, hugged her chest, and cursed. "...Fuck you! Shut up and heal your wounds!!"

"Oh... OK!"
