Chapter 1195: The Reckless Spirit Takes Over

Seeing Yi Feng's inquiry, Lu Xinlan responded with a grave expression.

"Exactly."

"This is the Heavenly Maiden's sedan chair, and the one seated inside is none other than Lu Shuyao."

As expected.

With the so-called prestige of the Heavenly Dragon Merfolk, this sedan chair could hover above the Ten Thousand Treasures Tower. These fish-people truly had an air of arrogance, and even those who worked for them were full of confidence.

Yi Feng nodded.

Noticing the distant figures of several graceful women, he frowned slightly.

"Since Lu Shuyao has already arrived at the Ten Thousand Treasures Tower, why are so many people still involved?"

Lu Xinlan's expression turned somewhat peculiar.

"The third prince of the Heavenly Dragon Merfolk has an extremely eccentric nature..."

"He demands that each island offer a Heavenly Maiden, but in reality, these maidens are of low status. Even so, only he is allowed to humiliate them, and he absolutely cannot tolerate anyone else getting close to them beforehand."

"From the moment a woman becomes a Heavenly Maiden, no man is allowed to approach her. Even a touch of the skin is considered a grave offense."

"For tens of thousands of years, once someone becomes a Heavenly Maiden, she must be surrounded and served by female cultivators. Various forces will send people to guard her, both to prevent her from escaping and to avoid any complications, until she is delivered to the Heavenly Dragon Merfolk."

This third prince was quite the character.

He wanted to humiliate the Heavenly Maiden, yet he couldn't allow anyone else to get close? Not even a single touch? After cultivating for thousands of years, she still had to remain untouched?

A bunch of pure and complicated demands.

One might think he was preparing for a grand wedding.

What kind of bizarre,变态S was this?

A rotten fish, bullying humans with a long list of demands, really thought he was a dragon.

Yi Feng couldn't help but frown.

"What would happen if someone touched her?"

Lu Xinlan's expression changed, and her voice lowered.

"If that were to happen... it would provoke a thunderous wrath! The third prince of the Heavenly Dragon Merfolk would undoubtedly reduce the offender to ashes!"

Hearing this, Yi Feng's temper flared!

A fish daring to put on such airs, such arrogance!

While cursing internally, he also saw a new opportunity.

These merfolk were indeed despicable, but having ruled the East Sea for tens of thousands of years without anyone daring to resist, they must be incredibly powerful. If he could provoke them, wouldn't that be the perfect way to achieve his goal of seeking death?

At the very least.

Such a boastful and powerful force should be able to test the limits of his cultivation.

Discovering this opportunity by chance, Yi Feng became even more determined in his plan.

No one else is allowed to touch her?

Heh.

Today, I'll touch her right in front of you!

But this time, it was different from before.

This matter involved far-reaching consequences, and the other party was of significant background. While it would be easy for him to stir up trouble and seek death, if it ended up harming countless cultivators in the East Sea, that would be a disaster.

Acting solely for himself was not the way of a true man!

Whether it was his close friends or ordinary cultivators he had never met, Yi Feng did not want to bring harm upon them.

After pondering for a few moments.

He didn't have a good plan yet, so he first secretly inquired with the system.

"If I complete the mission, aside from becoming immortal and greatly increasing my cultivation, what other benefits are there?"

"Can I bring people back to life?"

After several desperate calls, the damn system finally responded, half-dead.

"Possible."

Hearing this, a light flashed in Yi Feng's heart.

It's possible to bring people back to life?

If that's the case, then everything has a way out!

Even in the worst-case scenario.

Even if others were harmed, as long as he succeeded in seeking death, he could revive them, and then deal with those rotten fish-people, freeing the East Sea...

In the future.

Those who died could be compensated with positions like island masters or elders, and given some territory.

Wouldn't that be infinitely better than being someone else's slave?

Ha!

Yi Feng, you truly are a genius!

After analyzing the situation.

Yi Feng had it all figured out!

By getting close to Lu Shuyao and provoking that变态 fish prince, he could complete his mission of seeking death. In the future, not only would he achieve his goal, but he could also solve all the problems of the East Sea!

This was a flawless plan!

If he had known that death would grant him the ability to revive others, why would he have been so hesitant!

It's all this damn system's fault!

Yi Feng, realizing this belatedly, continued to question.

But the damn system started playing dead again, not responding at all, like an ancient computer from the 1980s that had crashed.

He didn't want to waste any more time.

The plan was set, and all worries were resolved!

Instantly.

A gleam of anticipation appeared in Yi Feng's eyes.

"I'm going to save Lu Shuyao and confront that fish prince!"

Whoosh!

Lu Xinlan was startled upon hearing this!

Save Lu Shuyao?!

If this were done, it would undoubtedly provoke the wrath of the third prince of the Heavenly Dragon Merfolk. This was no ordinary conflict; it would affect the lives of countless cultivators in the East Sea!

A calamity was approaching!

Lu Xinlan's face turned pale with shock, and she instinctively wanted to dissuade him!

But as she suddenly stood up.

Seeing the calm in Yi Feng's eyes, the starlight within them filled with confidence, Lu Xinlan's turbulent emotions seemed to instantly settle.

If it were Sir Yi taking action...

Perhaps, this matter might not be impossible.

Looking at Yi Feng's extraordinary demeanor and recalling the immense power he had displayed before, Lu Xinlan felt slightly more at ease, though she still couldn't fathom why Sir Yi would take such action.

In her eyes, Sir Yi was profound and unfathomable, and his actions must have deep meaning.

Even under immense pressure, Lu Xinlan gritted her teeth and bowed deeply to Yi Feng.

"Sir, your righteousness is admirable. If you have made your decision, Xinlan will surely cooperate."

Even though she knew this matter was of great consequence, looking at Yi Feng, Lu Xinlan felt an inexplicable trust.

With no more worries, Yi Feng was now like a reckless spirit taking over.

He nodded with his hands behind his back, steady as Mount Tai.

"Mm."

"Where is Lu Shuyao now? Take me to her."

Hearing his calm words, filled with the confidence of one who controlled the heavens and the earth.

Lu Xinlan nodded.

Immediately, she led the way, heading straight for the forbidden depths of the Ten Thousand Treasures Tower!

The two walked one after the other, passing through several massive gates.

Finally.

They stopped before a six-story glazed pagoda.

The pagoda was radiant, reflecting the afterglow of the setting sun. From a distance, it appeared to be adorned with jewels, but it seemed to be enveloped by an invisible barrier, with only a beautiful, otherworldly glow visible, its true form obscured.

Five female cultivators in white gauze stood silently with their swords, as if they were one with their blades.

Their indifferent eyes showed not a ripple of emotion, standing as still as ancient bells ten zhang away from the pagoda, exuding an icy aura that kept others at bay.

Suddenly!

The five maids' eyes trembled, and they tightly gripped their swords!

In their sight.

The clear-faced Yi Feng walked slowly towards them, like an ordinary man out for a stroll.

Though he appeared to be a mere mortal, they were extremely cautious. This Sir Yi's cultivation was terrifyingly profound, and he was a distinguished guest of the Ten Thousand Treasures Tower. Who would dare to be the slightest bit careless?

Not knowing Yi Feng's intentions, they dutifully advised.

"Sir Yi, please stop!"

"This is the forbidden area of the Ten Thousand Treasures Tower. No one is allowed to enter without permission!"

Yi Feng stopped upon hearing this and tried to reason with them.

"I have come to save Lu Shuyao. As fellow women, you should empathize with the fate of the so-called Heavenly Maiden. Why not make an exception?"

"In the future, I will take full responsibility for any consequences."

But as soon as he finished speaking.

The maids' expressions turned cold, and the leader gritted her teeth and clasped her fists!

"Sir, please do not jest."

"As a distinguished guest of our Ten Thousand Treasures Tower, any matter can be discussed, but this is absolutely impossible. The third prince's decree has been issued, and no one may defy it!"

"The young lady is destined to be a Heavenly Maiden. This is her fate!"

These people had been kneeling for too long and could no longer change.

Being bullied to such an extent, not only did they not resist, but they also saw it as some damned fate.

Yi Feng had no more patience for words and took a step forward with a cold expression!

"What if I insist on entering?!"

The moment his deep voice resonated.

The five maids suddenly felt an immense pressure, as if an invisible force field had enveloped them!
