92: Chapter 92 What's on the Other Side of the Sea?

After a chaotic struggle...

Xing Yaoyan held Qian Wanyao firmly beneath her, then raised the jade token before her eyes.

Just as she had anticipated, the moment the young girl saw the jade token, she immediately stopped struggling.

Yet, tears still trickled down her pretty face, one by one.

Looking at her pitiful appearance, Xing Yaoyan felt a sudden, inexplicable sense of guilt.

"Why does it feel like I am the villain..."

"Let us agree first: when I release you, you are not to attack me, you are not to cry or make a scene, and then you will tell me everything you know about this place. Nod, and I will return the jade token to you."

Hearing the White Wolf Girl, Qian Wanyao paused for a moment, then finally nodded solemnly.

"Heh~ So you can understand what I am saying..."

Xing Yaoyan placed the jade token gently on the ground beside the girl, then slowly stood up and stretched her limbs.

There was already a tear on the shoulder of her garment from where Xiao Dao had stabbed her, and now, after being tugged around by Qian Wanyao, the entire piece of fabric had ripped open, exposing her delicate collarbone.

She simply tore off that piece of fabric with her hand, exposing half of her shoulder.

The clothes were ruined anyway, so this might actually be cooler...

Suddenly, she felt her hem being tugged.

She saw Qian Wanyao pointing in a certain direction, as if signaling for her to follow.

Xing Yaoyan did not see the long sword on the ground; it must have been put away by her.

"Looks like she is quite obedient..."

Watching the girl obediently turn to lead the way, the corner of Xing Yaoyan's mouth curled slightly.

She had intentionally turned around and exposed an opening just now, wanting to see if this girl would continue to attack her. Now it seemed the result was quite satisfying.

After all, from the bottom of her heart, she did not wish to see such a beautiful young girl perish just like that...

Before long, Xing Yaoyan was led by the girl to a small wooden cabin.

Qian Wanyao pushed open the door.

"You live here? Was there anyone else here besides you before?"

She looked up and down at the simple wooden cabin. The furnishings inside were as plain as its exterior, consisting only of a bed, a wooden table, and a few cabinets.

Qian Wanyao walked over to one of the boxes, took out paper and a brush, and began to write rapidly while hunched over the wooden table.

Before long, she handed the paper to Xing Yaoyan.

The girl's handwriting was elegant and beautiful, clearly that of a calligraphy Master.

But the first sentence on the paper made Xing Yaoyan unable to hold back.

"I have lived here since I can remember; counting now, it must be over ten years..."

Xing Yaoyan looked up into the girl's clear eyes, and she felt a sudden surge of respect for her. Not to mention this world, even in her past life, Xing Yaoyan did not know if she could last a single day living in a place without the internet or mobile phones.

She continued reading:

"...Usually, I live here alone, but Master comes every month to check my training progress."

The moment she saw this line, Xing Yaoyan felt her heart stop.

But as if noticing her fear, Qian Wanyao thoughtfully added a few words in the blank space: "He left the day before yesterday."

"Phew~"

Xing Yaoyan breathed a sigh of relief.

It did not take a genius to know that someone capable of raising such a Prodigy as this girl must be outrageously strong. If he were to run into her bullying his precious disciple, she would definitely be dead.

"...My Master says the place I am in is called 'Peach Blossom Spring', a small world he created in the Land of Destruction, specifically for training me..."

Xing Yaoyan looked at the girl with pity.

This is clearly imprisonment...

Once again keenly sensing her emotional fluctuation, Qian Wanyao quickly wrote on the paper:

"Master is very good to me; every time he comes, he brings me many gifts. He also encourages me, saying that when I reach the third rank and can truly control my own power, he will take me out to the real world."

Control my own power...

Xing Yaoyan recalled the girl displaying her Divine Might earlier, and her body couldn't help but shiver.

It really is quite dangerous...

The end of the text on the paper explained the reason for her attacking her.

"Because this place is isolated, all supplies must be sent via the Teleportation Spirit Array set up by Master in the outside world. These supplies include Spirit Crystals, food, and... Spirit Beasts, Vicious Beasts, and Star Beasts."

"Master instructed that whenever the array sends living things, they are wicked, evil things, sandbags for me to practice on, and I must destroy them with all my might."

Xing Yaoyan's hand gripping the corner of the paper tightened slightly, and veins could be faintly seen bulging on her forehead.

So I am a sandbag, huh...

"Then why aren't you destroying me now?"

"Because you feel different to me, and you just returned my jade token."

The girl wrote on the paper, her eyes so clear and bright that one could not help but believe her.

"But you really wanted to kill me at the beginning..."

Xing Yaoyan pretended to be furious, wanting to scare this naive little flower.

"I am sorry."

After writing these three words, Qian Wanyao lowered her head, not daring to look into Xing Yaoyan's eyes. Vaguely, it seemed she could see tears swirling in her eyes again.

"Hey, hey, hey, I was teasing you, don't cry..."

Judging by the fact that the color depth of the words "I am sorry" was significantly deeper than the others, it was clear that the girl truly knew she was wrong.

After comforting the girl, Xing Yaoyan sighed.

"I am a Wolf Demon who accidentally entered this Teleportation Spirit Array from the outside world. It was just an accident. By the way, do you know if there are any mechanisms here to get out directly?"

The girl did not answer her question directly, but instead wrote this question on the paper:

"What lies across the sea?"

"Uh..."

This 'Peach Blossom Spring' was a small world opened up on the sea; her asking this clearly meant she was asking about the appearance of the real world.

It seems her Master has hidden many things from her...

Upon seeing Qian Wanyao's curious eyes, Xing Yaoyan's heart softened for no reason.

"Outside Peach Blossom Spring are the Human Alliance and the Kingdom of Myriad Demons..."

She started by explaining the current world situation outside.

Then, when she got into the swing of things, she started complaining about the events she had encountered since her Transmigration.

Of course, she did not reveal that she was a Star Beast, only talking about how she had been framed, abandoned by people she trusted, and finally came to the Kingdom of Myriad Demons, displayed her Divine Might, and made a few good friends...

Finally, Xing Yaoyan was completely on a roll.

She was seen suddenly patting the shoulder of the girl, who was sitting upright and listening attentively, then said earnestly:

"Men are all trash, remember that!"

"That is not true, my Master is a good person."

The girl responded on the paper.

"Fine, except for your Master..."

"And my dad."

"Except for your dad..."

"And..."

"Stop! As far as I am concerned, human males are all trash, okay..."

Xing Yaoyan said, covering her face.

"Oh."
