89: A plot to riot has been hatched. Meet outside Ether Coral Castle in three days!

Daoist Ji Yin did not speak much; after saying a few casual words, he hurriedly left with the Hall Masters of the Hundred Treasures, Refinement, and Corpse Dismemberment Halls.

The Hall Master of the Hundred Treasures Hall glanced back, her eyes as clear as spring water gently sweeping through the crowd as if searching for something.

Her gaze struggled slightly, but in the end, she could only helplessly comply.

Yao Yian felt a sense of strangeness; he followed the gaze of the Hall Master of the Hundred Treasures Hall, which was directed toward the Hundred Treasures Pavilion's formation.

In the crowd, Yao Yian immediately spotted Tang Heng's figure; the other man was hanging his head.

Yao Yian's heart jolted as he seemed to realize something incredible.

Hiss... Could it be... No way... After the meeting adjourned, the square was teeming with people as they began to depart.

Yao Yian was preparing to return to his Immortal Cave to continue contemplating his Cultivation Technique when Xu Yimo suddenly approached him mysteriously.

"Brother, that Fellow Daoist Tang doesn't look like a good person to me."

"I observe that man has a heavy mind and will use any means necessary to achieve his goals." His tone carried a hint of worry.

"He is a man without principles; someone like that is capable of anything. When I was young, I heard from Uncle Liu next door..."

"You must be very careful, because being careful allows one to better survive in this world..."

"Also, I plan to use my connections to transfer you from the Corpse Dismemberment Hall to the Capture Hall. This Capture Hall is like this, it has many..."

"What do you think?"

As the name suggested, the Capture Hall was an organization for capturing Cultivators.

Yao Yian had heard quite a bit of hearsay about this hall. Although it seemed to grant the power to go outside, being a Cultivator in the Capture Hall was actually quite troublesome.

First was the constant loyalty assessments, with various tests arranged at every turn.

Second was the layers of specialized Restrictions placed within the body, as well as the potential dangers during the capture process.

Of course, none of these were the main point.

The main point was that only a fool would give up such a massive experience farm like the Corpse Dismemberment Cave.

A Breakthrough to the Spirit Manifestation Realm would not be a dream at all if Yao Yian were given a bit more time!

Wasn't it better to keep a low profile and make a fortune?

Seeing Yao Yian shake his head, Xu Yimo showed a look of understanding and patted his shoulder.

He silently marveled in his heart, "This brother is truly a good man! Even if he continues to suffer, he is unwilling to trouble me to take action."

This truly was his good brother!

"Take care, brother."

After this, Yao Yian didn't receive any instructions from Tang Heng and spent the entire day sitting in his Immortal Cave.

It wasn't until the first watch of the night that Tang Heng's instructions were finally sent out.

Once again in that deep, dark corner, Tang Heng actually brought out a map this time. On it, the location of this place and the nearby Coral Fortresses were clearly marked.

Tang Heng folded the map, sealed it with a wax pill, and had Yao Yian swallow it.

Yao Yian was depressed; how had he become a human warehouse... A long time later, Daoist Ji Yin arrived in the main hall with the three Hall Masters.

The remaining Hall Masters of the five halls and fifty Managers had all arrived, making the atmosphere exceptionally solemn.

Standing at the very edge was a tall man clad in full black armor.

He stood there with his arms crossed, silent and majestic.

He was the commander of the Execution Squad, the most loyal existence to Daoist Ji Yin.

Daoist Ji Yin smiled slightly and gently took the hand of the Hall Master of the Hundred Treasures Hall, letting her sit sideways on his lap, his eyes full of doting.

"Greetings, Fortress Master!!!"

Below, a chorus of respectful salutations rang out.

"I have called you here today to discuss a matter."

"This Fortress Master has learned a secret that that place is about to open."

"That place may hold the opportunity to step into the Silent Spirit Realm. Therefore, I have decided to take seventy percent of the Coral Fortress's combat power there."

"The Hall Master of the Hundred Treasures Hall, the Hall Master of the Corpse Dismemberment Hall, and Kui Gang will remain to guard this place."

"The departure time is set for three days from now."

"Very well, you may all withdraw to prepare supplies and Medicinal Pills."

Daoist Ji Yin's words left no room for compromise. Although it seemed like a discussion on the surface, it was more like an absolute command from a master to his slaves.

Everyone had their own thoughts about this.

"Wait."

The sudden low voice was like a clap of thunder, making those who were about to leave shudder. In their terror, they all turned and knelt on the ground.

"Fortress Master, what else do you command?"

"Kui Gang stays. The rest of you may leave."

Daoist Ji Yin spoke indifferently, making it impossible to tell his mood.

"Qiuxue, you should go down first as well."

Everyone left one after another, leaving only the tall man in black armor... The next day, after completing his corpse dismemberment task, Yao Yian returned to his Immortal Cave as usual.

However, not long after he began cultivating, a charming female Cultivator walked in, dressed boldly.

Seeing this, the other male Cultivators in the same Immortal Cave immediately showed looks of covetousness, their eyes fixed heatedly on the female Cultivator.

But after seeing her walk toward Yao Yian in the corner, they immediately withdrew their gazes.

So she was Mute Brother's person; they didn't dare look, they didn't dare look.

Mute Brother had the Execution Squad backing him; only a madman would offend him.

Even if Mute Brother kicked them out right now to have a tryst with this woman, they wouldn't be able to say anything.

Yao Yian heard footsteps and opened his eyes to look.

A scantily clad female Cultivator walked up to him.

Yao Yian recognized this female Cultivator; she was Xing Luoyu, the one who had provided services to Tang Heng a while ago.

What was she doing here?

"Mute Brother, come with me quickly."

"Brother Tang said he wanted me to take you to a happy place."

Xing Luoyu's eyes were like silk, her soul-stirring gaze seemingly able to hook one's spirit, making it hard not to fall for her.

Yao Yian wanted to refuse sternly, not wanting her to disturb his Dao Heart, but his body wouldn't listen, so he could only let her lead him away.

Before long, she had pulled him into a dark and deep alleyway.

Yao Yian's expression turned solemn.

Good, it's finally my turn to criticize the evils of this other world.

I'm ready; come at me with everything you've got.

Suddenly, arrays and talismans lit up on the ground.

In the next moment, the world spun, and the two appeared in a dilapidated, classical room.

Yao Yian looked closely and was instantly so shocked his mouth hung open.

The room was filled with people, including Chen Tingxuan, the Cultivator from Corpse Dismemberment Cave No. 7 who had "died."

Most shocking to Yao Yian was that there were actually ten Managers among them.

Nine other Managers followed behind one person, and the one standing at the very front was Manager Zhao of the Hundred Treasures Hall.

"Come here."

An order was issued, and Yao Yian was controlled by Tang Heng to walk behind him.

Gradually, five more people arrived.

By now, over forty people had gathered in the room... "It seems this Manager Zhao is the one leading this behind-the-scenes organization; quite a grand undertaking."

Yao Yian could not help but think to himself.

Soon, Manager Zhao nodded after counting the heads.

"To keep it short, it's decided: the operation begins at the Hour of the Rooster on the third day!"

"The day after tomorrow, the Fortress Master will leave with a large portion of the Coral Fortress's main combat force for a set of ruins."

"At that time, I will provoke a conflict between the Hundred Treasures Hall and the Execution Squad, while the Hall Master of the Refinement Hall will go to mediate."

"This is an opportunity for a riot!"

"I am completely confident that I can make the Hall Master of the Hundred Treasures Hall and the leader of the Execution Squad fight until both are wounded."

"That will be the moment when the entire Coral Fortress is at its weakest."

"You are all our trusted confidants. If this succeeds, there is hope of escaping the Coral Fortress!!!"

"Now, everyone, get ready. Three days from now, at the Hour of the Rooster, act after the loud explosion!"

After hearing his explanation, everyone's expressions became solemn.

This concerned everyone's lives; how could they not be careful?

If one was caught betraying the Coral Fortress, whether they were a Manager or not, there was only one end.

To put it bluntly, so-called Managers were just high-grade consumables.

In the Aether Coral Fortress, the Realms of all Cultivators were strictly limited. If they let you be in the Spirit Manifestation Realm, you could be; if they let you be in the Kai Guang Realm, you would stay there for your entire life.

Should any Cultivator attempt to break through to the Spirit Manifestation Realm on their own, the consequence would inevitably be death without mercy.

"Three days later?"

Yao Yian's brow furrowed even tighter because things were so sudden that he hadn't prepared much.

However, there were still three days, and his cultivation had reached the Peak of the Nascent Light Realm Ninth Layer.

At that time, he could try to charge into the Spirit Manifestation Realm by absorbing blood freely!

Before leaving, he wanted to fleece the Aether Coral Fortress one last time.

"Alright, the instructions have been given."

"When the time comes, incite the Cultivators around you. Once the loud explosion that shakes the Coral Fortress sounds at the Hour of the Rooster, launch the riot together and charge according to the orders of us ten."

"Everyone! See you outside the Aether Coral Fortress!"

"See you outside the Aether Coral Fortress!"

"See you outside the Aether Coral Fortress!"

Everyone spoke in unison, the desire in their eyes revealed without reservation.

In the blink of an eye, three days had passed...
