Chapter 138 - 21: A Familiar Face in the Dungeon, and the Enchantress Again

Si Nan and Shi Sheng followed down behind.

Looking at the person lying at Ye Liuyun’s feet, everyone thought it was Ye Liuyun who knocked him out. No one suspected anything.

They followed behind Ye Liuyun.

Moving quietly into the depths of the dungeon.

It was dark outside, but once inside, the dungeon immediately became brightly lit.

Many oil lamps hung on the walls around them. Each lamp was a bit dim, but...

With so many lamps together, the entire dungeon was illuminated quite brightly.

,,,

"What are these?"

It hadn’t been clear outside, but once inside, they understood.

This was why it was called a dungeon.

On both sides were rows of prison cells, filled with many women. Some were young and beautiful, but without exception, every one of them looked haggard and worn out.

Some had just cried, with tear streaks still visible on their cheeks.

Seeing Ye Liuyun and the others enter,

first there was fear, but when they realized these were not monks from Yunkong Temple, a glimmer of hope appeared in their eyes.

They pleaded silently with their eyes at Ye Liuyun’s group, but didn’t dare say anything.

They seemed worried that, despite the different outfits, these people might still be from Yunkong Temple.

"Who’s there!"

Just then,

a patrolling Brahma Sect monk came out around the corner.

Seeing Ye Liuyun and the others, he immediately demanded.

"Your grandpa!"

Having witnessed these scenes, Shi Sheng could barely contain the anger in his heart.

So as soon as he saw someone appear,

without a word, Shi Sheng retorted, then sent a punch flying, smashing straight through the monk’s body.

It was clear Shi Sheng put all his anger into that punch, holding nothing back.

"Can’t you be more careful?"

Si Nan, standing not far from Shi Sheng, got blood splattered all over his face, wiped it off casually, then shot Shi Sheng an annoyed look.

Though he understood why Shi Sheng was so furious.

"Hmph!"

Shi Sheng didn’t care in the slightest and withdrew his fist.

"All these people deserve to die."

As he spoke, he withdrew his arm and shook it off carelessly.

His ruthlessness was plain to see.

"Enough!"

Si Nan wanted to say more, but Ye Liuyun cut him off directly.

"Since we’ve started fighting, there’s no need for useless talk. Take out everyone guarding this place."

It’s nighttime now.

If they moved fast enough, they shouldn’t draw the attention of the Brahma Sect monks upstairs.

"Understood!"

Once Ye Liuyun gave the order, Shi Sheng and Si Nan didn’t say another word, nodded seriously,

and moved out quickly, ready to clear all the Brahma Sect monks from the dungeon first.

"Sir, please save us!"

"Sir, help us, please!"

"Sir!"

This scene made the women in the wooden cells realize that Ye Liuyun’s group really was here to rescue them.

Even though Shi Sheng’s violence had scared many just now,

it was their chance to escape.

"Don’t worry!"

Ye Liuyun waved his hand, signaling for them to quiet down.

"I am Ye Liuyun, Lord Thousand Households of the Embroidered Uniform Guard. Stay calm. I’ll let you out soon, but stay quiet for now, understood?"

No one was a fool.

After Ye Liuyun’s words, everyone nodded obediently and immediately went silent.

The cell doors were all locked up with thick chains.

But for Ye Liuyun, these chains were nothing—a single slash could chop them apart easily.

"Follow me!"

With those simple words, the women hurriedly followed Ye Liuyun.

At times like these,

only with Ye Liuyun could they feel any hope of survival, so naturally no one dared run off aimlessly.

The deeper they went,

the fewer people were locked up in each cell.

Some cells were large but contained only three or four people, clearly also captured,

but unlike the haggard women outside, these were being fed very well, only looking a bit disheveled but mentally alert.

"Hmm?"

This way of imprisoning people piqued Ye Liuyun’s interest.

Using the system’s ability to observe,

sure enough, every one of these women had the Lady of the Yin Hour Talent Entry.

Girls born in a yin year, month, and hour sound rare and precious, but actually there are quite a lot, and the Lady of the Yin Hour only contains heavier Yin Qi.

It can’t compare at all to the Pure Yin body.

"Just as I thought."

A look of understanding flashed in Ye Liuyun’s eyes.

The women outside had no special Talent Entry,

but these did, so they were treated so well.

So, was this all just a cover-up? The main goal was to capture girls born in a yin year, month, and hour, but to avoid suspicion, they also imprisoned many ordinary girls to hide the truth?

Of course,

This was just Ye Liuyun’s speculation and needed to be verified further.

As Ye Liuyun moved along, releasing women from the cells,

Si Nan and Shi Sheng, both stained with blood from dealing with the Brahma Sect monks, came over together.

"Sir, it’s done!"

The monks guarding this place weren’t strong, mostly Second-class or Third-class, with the most powerful being just a First-class Martial Artist.

Seeing these two blood-stained, fierce-looking men—
