The memories of all humanity are awakening, except for mine.

Beneath the cold basement lay rows of cold prison cells.

It appears that these cells have been reinforced; if Ling Juan hadn't held back, it would have been a testament to their strength.

Perhaps, they really will be torn to pieces, and at the same time...

They also intend to shatter this place. With the power of the spirit scroll, who would dare not believe them once these words are spoken?

Lingjuan held Sakura in her arms, and Sakura, unable to bear it any longer, collapsed into Lingjuan's embrace.

"Sakura looks terrible; she seems to have been tortured."

Jiang Chuan also kept talking, checking Xiao Ying's pulse.

"Fortunately, my internal energy wasn't damaged, but I'm too weak. I'll need to recuperate when I get back."

Ling Juan doesn't have time to settle scores with Bai Jingjing right now; the important issue is finding a comfortable place.

"Take me to your bedroom!"

Bai Jingjing blushed, extremely shocked, and wanted to refuse.

Ling Juan had no reason to refuse her; she flew into a rage, startling the other person.

"Go away, go away, it's upstairs."

Bai Jingjing also behaved herself and obediently led them upstairs.

If Jiang Chuan hadn't been holding the Dragon Roar Sword, Bai Jingjing would definitely have tried to cause trouble.

As we approached the entrance, the flowers were in full bloom, the decorations were lavish, and there were also various nude photos of handsome men.

"Is this your room?"

Bai Jingjing was also shy, her delicate face was flawless, but Jiang Chuan was not tempted by her.

Seeing that Bai Jingjing nodded, everyone hurried inside.

Unexpectedly, what was outside was just the tip of the iceberg; there were also various adult products in the corner.

There are even octopus chairs, but of course, these are not suitable for children.

Fortunately, Sakura didn't understand any of this, so Ling Juan gently placed Sakura on the bed.

Remove her dirty clothes, as for her underwear.

Jiang Chuan used a sealing technique to seal Bai Jingjing's internal energy, preventing her from using any methods.

"Change Sakura's underwear into a new set. Don't try anything funny. Come out after you've changed."

Jiang Chuan told Bai Jingjing to behave herself, while Ling Juan stood aside, not wanting to look at the woman in front of her.

He was terrified that he might accidentally cut off the other person's head.

"Alright~ You guys go in and take a look. I've already changed Sakura's underwear."

Jiangchuan Lingjuan also went inside, while Xiaoying remained unconscious.

"How about this, you all stay here, and I'll channel spiritual energy into Sakura."

"Okay, I'll go out then."

"Don't!"

Ling Juan was still embarrassed, after all, if they went out, it would mean a man and a woman sharing a bed.

Moreover, the surrounding area is filled with adult products, which looks awkward.

"Alright, in that case, I'll follow your arrangements."

And so, the spirit scroll began to channel spiritual energy into Sakura.

After so many days without food or water, coupled with severe torture, Sakura's spiritual energy has almost completely disappeared.

If we don't intervene quickly, it could lead to a major mistake.

...

"Are you feeling any better?"

"It's alright."

"That's fine then. How about we eat something first?"

In the blink of an eye, this steel castle has become the base of Lingjuan Jiangchuan.

Bai Jingjing's internal energy is currently sealed, and Ling Juan is the boss here.

Now that Sakura has almost recovered, it's time to put Bai Jingjing to the test.

"Come on, I'll teach this woman a lesson."

Bai Jingjing was lying on the sofa when Ling Juan kicked her awake.

After all, Bai Jingjing's internal strength was quite good, and she wasn't kicked away by that kick.

“Tell me the whole story. If there’s even a hint of fabrication, I’ll slit your throat.”

It's always Bai Jingjing who blackmails others, but this time it's Ling Juan who's blackmailing Bai Jingjing.

"I! I! I didn't do anything!"

"You dare talk back! I'll give you a beating!"

Ling Juan picked up Bai Jingjing's whip and lashed it across the other's fair skin.

Sure enough, a blood-red scar appeared after the blow landed on the other person.

"Ah! I'll tell you, I'll tell you."

You should know that Lingjuan's specialty is to torture others.

Surely no one doesn't know this after all this time.

"A week ago, I saw a robot dog~"

The story unfolds as follows: One day, Sakura's robot dog, searching for food, arrives in front of Bai Jingjing's Ironblood Fortress.

Bai Jingjing happened to discover it and found it very interesting.

So they sent someone to get a piece of meat and gave it to the robot dog.

And so, the robot dog came the next day, so Bai Jingjing sent someone to follow it.

Why is Bai Jingjing interested in the robot dog? Because Bai Jingjing has magnetic properties and can attract any iron object.

So, if you're interested in this robot dog, you can talk to its owner.

Surprisingly, the owner of this robotic dog was a little girl.

Moreover, she is a very beautiful young girl, Bai Jingjing, who is drawn to all things beautiful.

Bai Jingjing accepts all kinds of women, from beautiful women to handsome men.

So she immediately took a liking to Sakura and hoped that Sakura could stay by her side.

But Sakura wouldn't have it; who knew Bai Jingjing was so possessive?

Bai Jingjing tries to forcibly take Sakura away, and Sakura uses her mecha technique to confront Bai Jingjing.

Instead of pleasing them, they ended up being restricted by them.

Sakura discovered that the other person's ability was so powerful that it perfectly countered her own.

Each mechanical dog was captured by the other party, and the mecha was also absorbed into their grasp.

Sakura then realized that the reason her opponent dared to challenge her like that was because their abilities were perfectly countered.

So, Sakura pressed the amulet, requesting the help of the spirit scroll.

I didn't expect Ling Juan to be trapped in the village for so long; it's been a week before they finally came looking for her.

Ling Juan was also impressed, her eyes filled with excitement, and she continued to question him.

"You're imprisoning Sakura, are you just leaving her to fend for herself in jail?!"

"This is the only way I can do it. You can't use your internal energy in the basement, otherwise I'm afraid she'll use her powers to sneak out."

Ling Juan roughly understood the ins and outs and knew that there was no point in saying more.

So Ling Juan picked up the Malay sword, before Bai Jingjing could scream.

"Shh!"

The blood stained the entire floor, instantly making Bai Jingjing a queen again in her next life.

"You've messed with me, you're pathetic."

Ling Juan left satisfied, and ordered the guard from the gate to clean up the body.

Ling Juan had a fairly good impression of these guards.

During the interrogation, it was learned that these guards did not participate in the torture of Sakura.

Let them live. As for the entire fortress, Bai Jingjing's relatives, and subordinates...

No one dared to speak; it was originally just Bai Jingjing and Nanako.

They are both special forces, so they act like tyrants here.

He's been plundering everywhere; he's been a little emperor for too long.

They probably don't realize that there are no rules left in this world.

Therefore, people especially forgot about the rules. As for Bai Jingjing, she deserved to die. After Jiang Chuan learned about the Ling Juan's method, he had nothing to say.

Bai Jingjing gave him the feeling of being a rotten salted fish.

It smelled fishy and foul, while the Scarlet Witch, who was the same age as Bai Jingjing, gave people the feeling of a red rose.

It's the kind of thing that's alluring yet dangerous, making you want to get close, even if it means getting pricked by thorns.

After resolving this matter, and once Sakura had treated her injuries...

We're about to leave here; those who want to go to Islam, those who want to go back to the library, are going back to the library.

Of course, Sakura's travels must continue; they cannot stop. This is just a small episode.

Ling Juan had a lot of confidence in her disciple; Bai Jingjing was indeed a nemesis to Xiaoying.

There's no way around it; if someone could completely counter the Spirit Scroll and be just as strong, that would be ideal.

Lingjuan wasn't confident she could defeat her opponent, so she simply let her continue her travels.

...

"Master! You don't need to feed me anymore, I can drink by myself!"

"Can you do it? Look at the injury on your hand."

"Oh dear, why are you being so fussy? When you were teaching me, you didn't care at all when I got hurt."

"That was because I hurt you, to teach you a lesson. This time someone else hurt you, so of course I'm not happy about it."

Sakura happily drank the hot porridge that Ling Juan fed her, feeling warm inside.

Not only had she not seen her master for a long time, but she had also rarely seen Ling Juan like this.

"Okay, I've finished drinking it. I feel completely healed."

"No way, let's stay for two more days and then leave."

"By the way, that Bai Jingjing, isn't she...?"

"Don't ask about her anymore; she has already received the punishment she deserved."

Sakura lowered her head slightly. Kind-hearted Sakura didn't want others to be implicated, even though others treated her that way.

"Okay~"

"Silly child, only those close to you deserve your pity. You'll understand the meaning of my words when you grow up."

Suddenly! A knock came at the door.

"Ahem~ Excuse me, please take your time eating."

"Hmph! Speak quickly, what is it?"

Jiang Chuan entered the house with a grin, disturbing Xiao Ying's breakfast.

“There were a few people, Bai Jingjing’s family members, who gave me some crystals and asked me to let them go. Let me show you what this is.”

Jiang Chuan handed over two yellow crystals and one orange crystal.

These crystals are bright and shiny, and are as big as pigeon eggs.

Ling Juan examined it carefully to see if there was anything suspicious.

With her sharp eyes, Sakura immediately recognized that these crystals were the ones she had been searching for.

"Wow! This crystal is a stone that stores energy."

"Oh? You know him!"

"I came here this time specifically to find these stones, because I've been here before."

"Tell me more about it."

Jiangchuan Lingjuan listened patiently to Xiaoying's explanation.

It turns out that Sakura had lived in this area before, and she may have shown her talent at a very young age.

I feel like I have a curious side when it comes to anything that has energy.

However, Sakura's mother is a very superstitious person, and she doesn't allow Sakura to take other things without permission.

Instead, he wanted to bring Sakura into the Bushido code, though Sakura knew, of course, that she didn't belong to the Bushido code.

One day, she saw these stones by the roadside and was deeply attracted to them.

So I took it home and secretly hid it in the closet, not wanting my mother to find it.

But later, her mother found out.

Not only did her mother throw Sakura's stone onto the main road, but she also beat Sakura up.

It wasn't because of a few stones, but because Sakura's behavior deeply saddened her mother.

She believed that Sakura was trying to hide these stones from her.

Therefore, Sakura's childhood was a tragedy.

Sakura's brother, Kakashi, had long been tired of his mother.

So he came to the Central Plains to develop his career at a young age, probably because he didn't want to listen to his mother's nagging anymore.

"Later, you came to this place again because of these few stones."

"These stones have plenty of energy and can provide power to my mech."

"Isn't this just like indirectly increasing your strength?"

"Furthermore, I can also fill the stone with energy when I have plenty of energy."

"Oh, I see. Do you want me a piece?"

Ling Juan was clearly teasing Sakura.

Sakura pouted, her face full of childlike innocence; you should know, Sakura was only fifteen years old.

"Not entirely. I was just traveling around, and I happened to be passing by, so I stopped by to take a look."

Ling Juan suddenly thought of something and asked.

"Do you want to learn sealing techniques?"

What is a sealing technique?

Jiang Chuan, standing to the side, was also extremely embarrassed. He hadn't expected this spirit scroll to be such a scoundrel.

He taught his swordsmanship to Lingdong, and now he will teach the sealing technique to Xiaoying.

Having lost both of his signature skills, how can he possibly dominate the streets now?

These two are both Ling Juan's adopted sons. If the two of them were to communicate with each other...

Perhaps, he'll have mastered both swordsmanship and sealing techniques.

Jiang Chuan was speechless and wanted to curse.

“Jiang Chuan is also Ling Dong’s master. This time, I’ll make him your master too, and let him teach you sealing techniques. Once you’ve learned them, I won’t worry about you being captured by others.”

Lingjuan patted Sakura's head, and Sakura looked at Jiang Chuan with great curiosity.

At this moment, all Jiang Chuan could think about was, "Don't look at me, don't look at me."

But it still happened.

"Uncle Jiangchuan, could you teach me sealing techniques?"

Jiang Chuan is not a man who likes to refuse, especially since the person asking him this time is Ling Juan's adopted daughter.

"of course."

Jiang Chuan said those words without changing his expression.

Ling Juan certainly knew what was going on, but she wasn't looking at Jiang Chuan.

Jiang Chuan was practically being glared at by Ling Juan, but she still wouldn't even glance at him.

"Okay, okay, teach me in a bit, alright?"

"Wait a while, your injury hasn't fully healed yet. I'll teach you after you've fully recovered."

Ling Juan began to speak, saying...

"My Sakura recovered from her illness in two days, so I can teach her then."

Jiangchuan is about to explode, okay, okay, is this how you treat Jiangchuan?

“I heard, Lingjuan, that you have a treasured old wine that’s in the church. Let us have a taste sometime.”

Ling Juan's face immediately fell. She hadn't expected this kid to ask for payment as well.

"Okay, I'll treat you to a drink when you return to your church."

Jiang Chuan gave a wicked smile, clearly harboring ill intentions.

"Why are you offering me a drink? I remember we have a few brothers in our sect who love to drink. Why don't we have a good drink together? You wouldn't refuse to bring out even a little bit of alcohol, would you?"

Ling Juan's face turned green. Sakura put her hand on Ling Juan's face and asked her a question.

"Master, why has your face changed color? Are you feeling unwell?"

"I'm perfectly fine now, very fine, Spirit Scroll." (End of Chapter)
