Kent wanted to hold Aala back, but in the end, he let her rush to the fox lady whose life was hanging by a thread.
"Mama," Aala took hold of the woman's hands as tears began to pour from her eyes.
The woman is her mother, whom she had been waiting for. She and her husband left two weeks ago to look for food outside Planet Tianxu for their race, only to return alone, gravely injured and life barely hanging on by a thread.
She is part of the team that mostly goes out through a teleportation gate they found deep underwater. The gate leads to a planet of unintelligent beasts.
So, although dangerous, they always manage to bring home food.
This time, however, only she returned, but not in good shape.
"Big brother, please save my Mama," she turned to Kent, tears rolling down her face as she pleaded for her mother to be saved.
Kent didn't even have to be told twice. He summoned Elaine, who thankfully had managed to ascend to the Heavenly Ascension stage and came out of seclusion a day ago.
"Kindly save her mother," Kent said with a calm expression, but seeing Aala cry seemed to be affecting him mentally.
Elain waved her hand, and a green energy suddenly enveloped Aala's mother as if she were scanning her. A few seconds later, her brow raised.
"How barbaric, five of her meridians have been severed, and a curse has been placed on her bloodline. If I attempt healing her, she would die." Elaine paused and then thought for a moment, "The least I can do is keep her alive until the curse is broken."
Kent grit his teeth and quickly asked the tower for a solution.
[The master has two options. First, you can concoct the Purifying Pill using any flame with the purification property. Or second, find the one who cast the curse and kill them.
Although the second option won't break the curse, it also won't prevent Lady Elaine from healing her meridians. If the one who cast the curse still lives, attempting to cure her will prompt them to trigger the curse, which will kill her.
So it is either you give her a Purifying Pill or kill the curse caster. The curse can be broken later.]
Kent turned to Yuying... "Where did they go?"
Yuying promptly answered, "Since we are under strict supervision from the humans and beasts, we have to travel outside this planet through a gate hidden underwater. The gate leads to a lawless planet called Modu.
The beings there are unintelligent; however, they have three intelligent rulers called Monarchs. We are on good terms with the Demon Monarch.
It has no planet suppression since it is a lawless world. However, it has food and resources that have been sustaining us for the past 5000 years."
Yuying pointed at Aala's mother and said, "She is part of a five-warrior team that goes to collect food from the Demon Monarch. They left 14 days ago and were supposed to return today. However, we found her like this when we went to welcome them, as I always do."
Kent nodded and turned to Elaine, "Take her and Aala to your parents and keep her alive. I will tell you when to start healing her meridians."
Elaine nodded and vanished with the mother-daughter duo.
"Liora, go to the tower shop and get the herbs for the Purifying Pill. I will be back soon."
Liora wanted to go with him, but she knew handling the mission Kent had given her was important, too. "You can go with her, Yuyin. I will take it from here."
Kent activated the Soul Map and directed it underwater. It took just a second for him to locate the teleportation gate.
He teleported and appeared in front of it.
"Tower, activate it." The gate activated the next second, allowing Kent to walk through in a heartbeat.

[Planet Modu]
The planet that Kent appeared on looks dull and filled with demonic qi and other energies.
There is not much light in the air, and as much as he would love to wonder just why or waste time reading what his Heavenly Jade Eyes have for him, Kent didn't come for that.
The entire atmosphere is corrupted, making it dangerous to live there as an intelligent being.
ROAR
He let out a terrifying dragon roar, causing all beasts on the planet to shudder. The entire planet heard the roar, prompting them to look toward its source.
"I know you all can hear me, so listen carefully. You have just a minute to come here now, or else I will slaughter every last beast on this planet. I have no time to mess around."
Kent's voice spread across the planet, causing even more panic among the beasts and demons living there.
Three seconds later, space cracked and three beings walked out, each radiating the power of a Death Stage beast. That is three realms above the Heavenly Ascension stage.
Although there aren't many lawless worlds in a High World, such planets have no suppression. They are primarily found in the Immortal and God worlds.
Of course, they are different from Unique worlds and forsaken worlds.
While there is no suppression on such worlds, the beings that live on them can only reach the Death Stage rank if in a High world and True Immortals if in an immortal world.
They can't leave the planet, and even if someone carries them away, they would never be able to rise above the Death Stage rank.
However, it is said there is a beast contract that can allow the beast tamer to help them rise above the Death Stage.
Kent eyed the three beings, each radiating different auras...
One is a 6-meter humanoid behemoth. It has eight backwards-curved horns etched with abyssal runes. Four muscular arms dripping with black ichor. Wings made of condensed abyssal energy. Eyes that glow with a blood-red hue, and skin made of obsidian-black metal with shifting cracks radiating demonic qi.
The second is a tall, elegant, slender woman with long blue hair flowing behind her like smoke. Although she is no human, she has beautiful eyes that seem to mimic the nebula. Her skin is pale and smooth like polished moonstone. She has elegant, devilish horns, thin and curved to show her deadliness. Kent senses void energy coming off her.
And for the last, he is a towering 8-foot-tall man with a metallic body. He is clad in armour made of fused bones—blue abyssal flames in his eye sockets. A red soul-core exposed in his chest radiates intense abyssal spiritual energy. Behind him float countless corpse puppets.
Kent didn't sense any threat from them, but he spoke in a commanding tone.
"Someone placed a curse on a lady who was just here and may have killed or taken away her companions. I want that person, and I will be on my way."
Kent extended his hand, and Gaap materialised as a black jagged sword radiating cold mist... "Refuse to comply, and I will kill everybody on this planet."
BOOM
A terrifying aura erupted around Kent's body, causing the three Monarchs of Modu to shield themselves using their corrupted energy.
