Chapter 593: Chapter 301: Blood Pill’s Sinister Disaster

"Does Miss Xiao Xiao recognize this person?"

Yi Changfeng smiled and asked.

Shangguan Xiaoxiao frowned and said, "What does Lord Yi mean by this?"

Yi Changfeng waved his hand and said, "It’s nothing. Miss Shengxian arrived yesterday, and I just learned that your sister is also a person of great fortune, having obtained the Mysterious Dao Mark from Giant Tomb Island."

"Since both of you are sisters and have now come to my Yi Clan, it’s a great thing. I have prepared a banquet for you tonight to welcome you, what do you think?"

He evaded the most important question, only smiling and waving his hand:

"Yi Xuan, take Young Master Li An down to rest first."

Immediately, an elder from the side of the hall walked up and said to Li An, "Please—"

Shangguan Xiaoxiao wanted to say something, but Li An had already said, "Thank you, Lord Yi."

After speaking, he voluntarily followed Yi Xuan and left.

...

Two soldiers led Li An to the foot of a mountain, where there was a large courtyard with strict gatekeeping. Yi Xuan summoned a caretaker, whispered a few words, and then smiled at Li An, "Young Master Li, this is Yi Wei. While you cultivate here, you can tell him if you need anything."

Yi Xuan immediately left, while Yi Wei led Li An into the courtyard and introduced, "This is where you’ll stay. You can move freely within the courtyard, but you cannot go out. If you wish to contact the outside, you must tell me first, and only after I’ve reported to Mr. Yi Xuan can you do so!"

House arrest!

And this Yi Wei was obviously the warden.

Li An said nothing and settled in with peace of mind.

The environment inside the courtyard was quite nice, with rock gardens, flowing water, and vibrant flowers. Even his bedroom was quite upscale, using bedding made of Exotic Spirit Silk, with daily supplies of tea and Spiritual Meals.

The treatment wasn’t bad.

"Have I become a bargaining chip?"

On the day Shangguan Shengxian appeared, he understood his own situation.

Shangguan Xiaoxiao brought him to the Yi Clan, definitely having received a promise from them. What she could use to exchange with the Yi Clan was only Giant Tomb Island!

After all, Shangguan Xiaoxiao had once obtained the Mysterious Dao Mark from Giant Tomb Island, which would make it easier for the Yi Clan to find Giant Tomb Island.

However, with Shangguan Shengxian coming, she was no longer the only choice for the Yi Clan.

What was initially a fair trade, where Shangguan Xiaoxiao could even have some initiative, was now different.

The Yi Clan now had the choice.

They could have the two sisters compete with each other, like raising poisonous creatures, to gain the maximum benefit.

If Shangguan Xiaoxiao succeeded, eventually Li An might still gain an identity within the Yi Clan.

If not...

Then Li An might be in danger.

"No, I must save myself!"

Li An didn’t like leaving his fate in the hands of others.

The only method for self-rescue... was the direct disciple of Lady Yi.

As long as he found them, he could rely on the Jade Talisman given by Lady Yi to survive!

So far, the cultivators he encountered, like Yi Changfeng and Yi Wei, were not direct disciples of Lady Yi.

However, the only fortunate thing was that until Giant Tomb Island was found, he should be safe and have time to plan.

...

At this moment.

At the banquet set by Yi Changfeng, both Shangguan Xiaoxiao and Shangguan Shengxian were present. After some pleasantries, he mentioned Li An and said:

"You two are sisters, and now both are esteemed guests of my Yi Clan. Whatever you request, my Yi Clan should fulfill..."

"But Miss Xiao Xiao has a master-disciple relationship with Li An and wants my Yi Clan to give him an identity, while Miss Shengxian has a deep feud with Li An and wants my Yi Clan to hand him over to settle the blood feud... Yi truly finds it difficult to choose."

He smiled and said, "But rest assured, I’ve reported this matter to the family. When Giant Tomb Island surfaces, the family high-ups will surely arrive, and by then, this matter should have a conclusion!"

"You two, please—"

Neither of them reacted, and he laughed heartily, finished a cup himself, and stood up saying, "I still have some matters to attend to, you two enjoy—"

Yi Changfeng left.

Shangguan Shengxian smiled slightly, raised her wine glass, took a sip, and said, "The wine of the Other Immortal Realm is indeed not bad."

"What exactly do you want to do?" Shangguan Xiaoxiao stared at her.

"Nothing,"

Shangguan Shengxian lazily replied, "The arrival of the Other Immortal Realm, I just want to adapt better and faster."

"I don’t care what you want to do, don’t touch Li An."

Shangguan Xiaoxiao warned, "Otherwise, I will make you regret it."

Shangguan Shengxian laughed, looking at Shangguan Xiaoxiao, but there seemed to be a faint mockery in her eyes, "Sister, you’re still so naive."

"As punishment for your excessive naivety, I’ve made up my mind about Li An."

She got up and left.

...

In the blink of an eye, half a month passed.

Yi Wei would bring meals to Li An on time every day, neither cold nor warm in attitude.

He understood well that those detained here had uncertain life and death, so he wouldn’t be overly passionate to avoid wasting energy, nor be too harsh to avoid making enemies.

The beings of the Other Immortal Realm also possessed the seven emotions and six desires, as well as schemes and intrigues, but their cultivation origin was different.

One day, as usual, he brought breakfast to Li An. Li An was not present, so he placed the breakfast on the table and suddenly noticed a bamboo slip on the table.

He looked at it carefully and saw that the bamboo slip actually contained a Demon Skill!

A part of the Blood and Flesh Melting Furnace Skill.

This cultivation technique immediately attracted Yi Wei. He glanced around, seeing Li An was still absent, and quickly memorized the contents of the cultivation technique, savoring it attentively, finding it extraordinary, and he was overjoyed.

Leaving Li An’s room, he returned to his own quarters and immediately began attempting to cultivate, constantly absorbing many mysterious substances from the surrounding air.
