"Bi Shuirou and Yan Siyun have looked into Queen Ming Kong, and her character seems to be quite upright. The Merfolk, both male and female, are fair-skinned and beautiful, and their tears can turn into special Jade Pearls, which are a type of high-grade spirit material. The unscrupulous demon hunters in the East Sea often capture merfolk for trafficking. Hence, the Queen deeply detests the act of abducting and looting people. She did not explicitly mention that someone was coming to rescue Yan Sijing, which leads me to speculate that she is likely to sit back and watch," Xi Ying said.

"If that's the case, then the situation isn't too bad, but we'll need to plan the rescue carefully," Yuan Ming said thoughtfully.

"What's there to plan? I'll just go in and bring Yan Sijing out. Even if Queen Ming Kong lends a hand, so what? Two Nascent Soul cultivators can't stop me," Xi Ying chuckled.

Yuan Ming hesitated after hearing this.

Yan Sijing was his subordinate; in principle, he shouldn't have to trouble Xi Ying.

But without using the Desire Power of the Stealing Heaven Tripod, he had no confidence in facing Nascent Soul cultivators. It was still safer to secretly assist Xi Ying, just like before in the Shura Palace.

At times like these, it was pointless to forsake the best strategy for the sake of pride, which would only cause trouble for himself and those around him.

"Then it's decided." Xi Ying waved her hand and tucked Miao Xian into the Spiritual Beast Bag. The Spiritual Beast Bag was meant for storing spirit beasts; it was difficult for humans to survive inside, but they could hold on for some time.

Muttering incantations, Xi Ying vanished into thin air in a shimmer—it was also the Void Transformation Technique.

All traces of her presence disappeared without a trace, clearly, her mastery of the Void Transformation Technique was much deeper than Yuan Ming's.

"Xi Ying, wait for a moment, let me get there before you make a move," Yuan Ming said hurriedly as he stopped her with a message, simultaneously leaving the Stealing Heaven Tripod Space and darted outside using the Void Transformation Technique.

He hastened all the way and soon arrived near the ships of the three clans, where he met up with Xi Ying.

Without speaking, Yuan Ming cast a protective shield and formed a silver barrier with the Silver Token, completely isolating the inside from the outside. Then, he took out the Stealing Heaven Tripod and the Shura Blood Devouring Map and handed them to Xi Ying.

"Take the Stealing Heaven Tripod and the Blood Devouring Map with you. If you really face danger, I can summon Hong Ling and Blood Shadow to assist you."

Xi Ying didn't stand on ceremony and accepted the two treasures.

Yuan Ming's figure flickered, and he re-entered the space of the Stealing Heaven Tripod. His Divine Sense enveloped the area, checking to ensure that Queen Ming Kong hadn't used the Water Mirror Viewing Technique to probe this place, before he lifted the protective shield and the silver barrier.

Xi Ying stored the Stealing Heaven Tripod and Blood Devouring Map in her sleeve, then swept up the Silver Token with a flick of her sleeve, glanced over it briefly, and tucked it into her bosom before moving forward again. She soon reached the vicinity of the Snake-man Clan's ship.

The Snake-man Clan had reinforced their watch; every five steps there was a guard, and every ten steps a sentry. But such measures were no match for Xi Ying, who with her Void Transformation Technique, easily infiltrated the ship.

Yuan Ming utilized his Divine Sense to inform Xi Ying of the ship's status, continuously monitoring the Merfolk and Water Ape Clan.

Most of his attention was on Queen Ming Kong. Her Water Mirror Viewing Technique was incredibly powerful, enabling her to detect through the water vapor in the void.

With the East Sea rich in water vapor, it was a prime location for executing the technique. Xi Ying's Void Transformation Technique might not be able to evade Queen Ming Kong's scrutiny.

Yuan Ming's Divine Power was ready to be unleashed at any moment. If the Merfolk Queen made any move, he would immediately engage her.

Guided by Yuan Ming, Xi Ying dodged the numerous guards of the Snake-man Clan and quickly reached the place where Yan Sijing was imprisoned at the bottom of the ship.

Three Core Formation Stage cultivators were guarding there, with Qing Tong among them.

"I mean, Qing Tong bro, why do we have to keep watch over this Human Clan's female cultivator in the middle of the night?" a Snake-man Clan girl with a long face and red eyes yawned, expressing dissatisfaction.

"Indeed, this female cultivator is just at the Early-stage Core Formation and she's already bound by forbidden spells. Where could she escape to? It doesn't make sense for the three of us to guard her together," another tall young man added.

"These are the Ancestors' orders; just do as told," Qing Tong said indifferently.

"Guarding her is fine, but Qing Tong bro, once her True Fire has been extracted, you must hand her over to me to have some fun," the red-eyed girl eyed Yan Sijing's exquisite face with a trace of jealousy.

"Haven't you already beaten this woman enough, and still not satisfied?" Qing Tong smiled.

"These despicable groups that breed like pigs, relying on their numbers to dominate most of the East Sea's resources, will one day be completely annihilated by us. The Snake-man Clan shall rule over the East Sea!" the red-eyed girl said hatefully.

When it comes to individual capability, the three Alien Clans of the East Sea far surpass ordinary Human Clan cultivators, and their advantage in the sea makes them even more formidable. Unfortunately, they cannot match the numbers of the Human Clan and can only live in obscurity.

"We, the Alien Clan, are the chosen ones, possessing both the powerful physical bodies of the Demon Clan and their Innate Divine Abilities, as well as the spiritual intelligence of the Human Clan. We are destined to rule the East Sea! Our only limitation is our number. Once the Ancestors fully restore the Dragon Tiger Green Mysterious Furnace, we can refine large quantities of Demon Fetus Pills. Once that happens, our reproduction capabilities will greatly improve. That's why this woman is of great importance, we can't afford any mistakes, got it?" Qing Tong said slowly, his gaze sweeping over the others.

"Yes!" Both of them complied, no longer daring to take the situation lightly.

"Oh, your Snake-man Clan has obtained the recipe for Demon Fetus Pills? This is an Ancient Secret Pill from the Ancient Beast Taming Sect, lost for who knows how many years now," a faint voice sounded, the door opened on its own, and a shadow floated in.

"Who's there!" Qing Tong was shocked and flung his sleeves, shooting out two dark rays that crossed and slashed towards the shadow.

The red-eyed girl and the tall young man also acted swiftly, with a yellow Small Bell and a machete-shaped Magic Treasure targeting the shadow.

However, the trio's vision blurred, and they found themselves in a hazy space with no sky above or ground below, as if in a primordial world.

"Damn, we're in an Illusion Technique space!" Qing Tong cried out in horror, with a strong Divine Sense from his brow trying to break through the illusion.

But his Divine Sense vanished like a stone sunk in the sea, not even a ripple stirred in the grey space.

"What a powerful illusion technique. Could it be a Nascent Soul expert who has arrived?" Qing Tong thought in shock, reaching for the Storage Bag at his waist.

The newcomers were evidently foes, not friends; it could not be guaranteed they were not here for the Human Clan female cultivator. He must notify White Scale Master immediately!

However, as soon as Qing Tong's hand reached halfway, countless chains appeared out of nowhere, tightly coiling around his body, leaving him unable to move even a finger.

The other two were in the same condition, subdued without any ability to resist.

In the room beneath the deck, Qing Tong and the other two maintained their lunging attack positions, yet their bodies were stiff, motionless.

The three Magic Treasures fell to the ground, their spirit light completely extinguished. The entire room was enveloped in a green glow, blocking all Mana fluctuations.

You Ying flicked his sleeve, sweeping the three Storage Bags towards himself. His Divine Sense entered the bags, and he exhaled in disappointment.

"What are you looking for? Could it be that Demon Fetus Pill?" Yuan Ming asked curiously through a transmitted message.

"Mm, that pill is an Ancient Secret Pill, able to enhance the breeding capabilities of demon beasts, with a wide range of use, effective on most demon beasts. It is indeed a precious object," Xi Ying explained.

"Such a precious Dan Recipe should be on White Scale Master himself. If you want it, we can find an opportunity later to take it. Right now, our main focus should be on the rescue. It's almost over at White Scale Master's end," Yuan Ming suggested.

"Alright," Xi Ying responded without hesitation, taking out a black Token from Qing Tong's Storage Bag and began casting.

The Token emitted a black light that struck the black light screen around Yan Sijing.

The black light screen trembled, quickly thinning.

But at that moment, a black light flew out from White Scale Master, also a black Token, emitting piercing sounds.

"Damn it, White Scale Master has a Token on him and has noticed the disturbance here!" Yuan Ming, who had been monitoring everything with his Divine Sense, hastily said.

Xi Ying's expression darkened as he spat out two beams of Golden Light, which were the Golden Dragon Scissors, striking the black light screen.

The black light screen shattered in response, revealing Yan Sijing's figure.

Xi Ying reached out to grab Yan Sijing, but a green shadow shot out from his sleeve, a half-foot-long flat-headed, green-scaled little snake, moving incredibly fast to bite Xi Ying's wrist.

Xi Ying anticipated this move, waving his sleeve to knock the snake away.

A beam of Golden Light from the Golden Dragon Scissors slashed through, cutting the green-scaled little snake in two, which then exploded into two clouds of Blood Mist.

A beam of green light swept up Yan Sijing's body. The woman disappeared from sight and appeared within the Stealing Heaven Tripod Space.

After examining Yan Sijing, Yuan Ming extended a finger and released a green light that entered her body.

Yan Sijing's injuries quickly improved, and her breath stabilized.

Xi Ying once again used the Void Transformation Technique to conceal his tracks and swept outside.

"Who is this arrogant intruder daring to cause trouble on the Snake-man Clan's territory!" The room's roof exploded, and a majestic white light descended from the sky.

This white light contained extreme cold, instantly freezing the nearby walls and floor with thick white Ice Crystals, lunging at where Xi Ying was.

Just as Xi Ying was about to counter, Yuan Ming's voice rang out: "Leave it to me!"

Before the sound faded, a white Flame originating from above the silhouette's head appeared in the Void, palm-sized and also emitting a faint cold light, colliding with the falling white light.

The two, one large and one small, were incomparable in size, but as soon as the magnificent white light touched the white Flame, it instantly "hissed" and froze, turning into a lifelike ice sculpture.

White Scale Master shot out from within the frozen white light, his body covered in frost, a look of shock flashing in his eyes.

"Too bad, my Mana is too sparse to unleash the full power of this Cold Moon Ice Flame. Otherwise, White Scale Master wouldn't have escaped so easily," Yuan Ming remarked with regret, looking at the Cold Moon Ring in Stealing Heaven Tripod.

Surprise also flashed in Xi Ying's eyes, but he continued to shoot outside.

"Stop right there!" White Scale Master's pupils darkened into a profound black, and he reached out into the void.

A giant white palm materialized out of thin air, radiating overwhelming cold light, reaching for Xi Ying.

However, countless illusions suddenly swirled before his eyes, too bizarre to resist sinking into.

White Scale Master hurriedly retracted his Magic Power Divine Soul, cycling the Nascent Soul within his body and illuminating his inner being, just barely defending against the invasion of the illusion.

By the time he regained his senses, Xi Ying had already vanished.

"You got lucky today. If anyone dares to kidnap our Human Clan's cultivators again, this person will serve as an example!" A voice suddenly resonated next to White Scale Master's ear.

As the words ended, the nearby red-eyed girl suddenly bled from her nostrils. Her body collapsed to the ground, lifeless.
