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.

for mindless slaughter, this isn't for you.] My name is Ye Shu, and I'm a transmigrator. It seems I'm supposed to be the protagonist, but that feels pretty unlikely. This world has been invaded by a system. The antagonists on the other side have suddenly become pure, flawless saints. The female leads have been force-fed the so-called "original plot," making them think they've been reborn. Now, everyone thinks I'm scum. Including the old lady in my ring. And here I am, in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, braising pork. To put my situation in perspective— It's as if, the moment Xiao Yan stepped into the Monster Beast Mountain Range, the Soul Emperor already knew he would become the Flame Emperor, and Yao Lao had been turned to the enemy's side. I have nothing right now. Oh wait, that's not true. I do have a white-haired loli child-bride who's the Heavenly Dao, and her only skill is acting cute. So, tell me guys... what are my chances of making it to the end?

transmigrates into the world as the sect master of the Heavenly Yan Sect, which is on the verge of being wiped out. He binds a system that grants him cultivation power based on the number of disciples he has: for each disciple, he automatically gains a year's worth of cultivation every single day! Take one disciple: every day he gains 1 year of cultivation power. While others struggle through a year of bitter training, he gets the same just by sleeping through a single night. Take ten disciples: every day he gains 10 years of cultivation power. Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, Nascent Soul—he breezes through all bottlenecks without lifting a finger. Take one hundred disciples: every day he gains 100 years of cultivation power. Even a Soul Transformation Venerable before him can’t survive a single blow. Take ten thousand disciples: every day he gains 10,000 years of cultivation power! With a wave of his hand, he topples empires. With a single step, he crushes the sacred grounds of the universe. ... While others fight tooth and nail for secret techniques, Lin Yan casually hands out Nascent Soul-level cultivation manuals as beginner textbooks. While others strain to find talented recruits, Lin Yan opens his doors to anyone—so long as they’re human. In just three short years, the Heavenly Yan Sect went from a backwater sect made up of three crumbling huts to a sacred land that every cultivator under heaven would kill to enter. ... One day, otherworldly demon gods invade, with a million demon soldiers pressing down upon the realm. Lin Yan, yawning, rises from his lounge chair and glances at the system panel: [Current Disciples: 1.28 million] [Daily Cultivation Increase: 1.28 million years] He waves his hand casually, and the countless demon soldiers are reduced to ashes in an instant. “So noisy… interrupting my fishing.”

saw a female celebrity tied up and stuffed in the trunk! Little did he know, countless cameras were aimed at him at this moment - this was a new type of reality show. The first randomly selected passerby was caught in less than an hour. But when Xu Moru was selected, things started to take an unexpected turn. "Damn, this isn't how the script goes. This Xu Moru is too bold, he's not following the rules at all." "Crap, is this guy taking it seriously?" "The female celebrity has been scared to tears!"
