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.

So Gu Chen'an entered the role and began to act as a scumbag villain, but who would have expected that the female leads could hear his inner thoughts. Miss Su from the Su family was shocked: "I originally thought Gu Chen'an was a scumbag, but I didn't expect he turned out to be a gentleman! What? You said I have to call off the engagement? I definitely won't, I'll piss you off!" Bai Yuan Tian was dumbfounded: "Young Master Gu is usually unreasonable and a complete brat, but he actually calls me little sweetie in his heart? What, Young Master Gu even said he likes me?" As the female leads' images collapsed more and more, the plot also collapsed with it. Gu Chen'an looked at all this chaos. "Ladies, don't aggro me, if you keep this up the male lead really will stab me, I still need to survive to the grand finale!"
