Hearing this, Ye Neng hurriedly propped himself up.
The two saw on the table an earthenware teapot, still emitting warmth and a light, fragrant tea aroma.
It was this tea fragrance that helped improve their condition.
Beside the teapot was a piece of rice paper held down by a cup.
Written on the paper were two forceful, bold characters:
– Drink tea!
Ye Neng shook with excitement, tears welling up as he excitedly exclaimed, "Yi'er, the ink is still wet, these two characters were left for us by the Master!"
"Surely the Master knew beforehand of our predicament and calculated that we would come here!"
"He must have brewed the tea specially, leaving this clue to guide us on what to do."
"It seems the Master truly plans everything meticulously, all under his control!"
"Quick, drink the tea."
"Yes!"
Ye Yi too trembled with excitement, mustering her last strength to pick up the teapot and pour a cup each.
Grasping this lifeline, the two didn't bother savoring the taste and downed the cups in one gulp.
As the tea water moistened their throats, a wave of warmth flowed through their bodies.
It was like a dried-up riverbed welcoming a stream – flowers and grass sprouting, the whole terrain revived.
The two shuddered in relief.
The agony from the Soul-Suppressing Nails vanished instantly as their inner energy swiftly recovered.
"Quick Yi'er, see if you can expel the Soul-Suppressing Nail with this power."
Ye Neng said urgently.
"Got it!"
Ye Yi's jade palm moved, channeling her inner energy to circulate through her meridians up to her crown.
But the next moment, she gasped in shock.
"Father, the Soul-Suppressing Nail is gone!"
"What?"
Disbelieving, Ye Neng searched inwardly but found his own Soul-Suppressing Nail had similarly vanished.
"Could the tea's power have directly dissolved it?"
Eyes wide, Ye Neng said incredulously.
Ye Yi nodded gravely.
It was probably the only explanation for why the Soul-Suppressing Nail disappeared completely.
Both showed deep reverence, the white-robed figure now godlike in their hearts.
Now this was a true transcendent Master!
What Soul-Suppressing Nail?
What could Bai Qianyi do?
The Master didn't even need to act personally; brewing just one pot of tea instantly turned this so-called Soul-Suppressing Nail to nothingness.
How ridiculous that Bai Qianyi dared match wits with the Master, arrogantly claiming to test if he qualified as her subordinate.
Pah!
She truly had no sense of proportion, her ignorance would get her killed without her ever knowing why.
Far away, on a hovering ark at the periphery, the meditating Bai Qianyi suddenly opened her eyes.
Shock flashed within them.
"This is a pleasant surprise!"
Hearing this, her two elderly attendants couldn't help voicing surprise, "Goddess, what happened?"
"The Soul-Suppressing Nails in those two weaklings were extracted." Bai Qianyi said gravely.
The elders too were mildly shocked.
"Then Goddess, what shall we do next?"
"No matter, it's merely extracted, hardly a threat just because it caught our eye." Bai Qianyi waved nonchalantly.
"The Goddess speaks wisely."
One elder nodded respectfully, "But those two Soul-Suppressing Nails are still rare treasures of Baiyang Palace. The Goddess should retrieve them, lest they fall into another's possession."
"Of course, what's mine cannot be kept without my permission."
A cold smile on Bai Qianyi's lips.
In the next instant, her jade palm traced seals, dispersing swirling shadows to transmit thousands of miles to the distant Soul-Suppressing Nails.
"Soul-Suppressing Nails, return!"
As her palm print fell, Bai Qianyi commanded coldly.
e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
