The whole family went mad, but the junior sister turned the tables and her luck soared.

Yun Yici proved himself through his actions, demonstrating that his swordsmanship was even more effective than his personal conduct.

The monks heeded her kind reminder.

He was brutally beaten by Yun Yici and couldn't even unleash a sword intent or a large-scale destructive spell.

Seeing how cautious they were, Yun Yici also acted in a sense of righteousness and did not release any pressure or expand her domain to lure Shen Huaichuan over.

She didn't even hit the person in the face.

Because she probably guessed what the secret of District 4 was.

No race willingly submits to enslavement or is born inferior.

Even among members of the same race, it's the same.

Yun Yici got tired of fighting, and Huai Chuan pointed, forcing the still-relentless cultivators back.

She stood proudly and said bluntly, "Don't you have anything to say to me?"

The female cultivator, clutching her abdomen in excruciating pain, stared at the monster that had appeared out of nowhere.

She couldn't help but ask, "Since you have such cultivation, why do you still want to be the Demon Lord's concubine?"

Yun Yici said speechlessly, "When did I ever admit that I had this kind of relationship with him?"

Everyone was stunned for a moment. What other identity could someone have besides being the Demon Lord's woman?

The female cultivator asked, "Are you a demon?"

Yun Yici shook his head: "I am a human."

She turned her head slightly to show the monks her smooth nape.

A glimmer of hope appeared in the monks' gloomy eyes.

The female cultivator bit her lower lip and suddenly knelt down: "Senior, how did you break the bondage curse? Please save us."

She loosened her tight high collar, gathered her long hair in front of her chest, and turned around to show Yun Yici the mark on the back of her neck.

Just as Yun Yici had predicted, it was a dark blue-black character with an eerie and ominous look.

The other cultivators also silently loosened their collars, showing Yun Yici the words on their necks.

Those words are like a lingering vine, clinging to them for generations, even after death.

At some point, those ordinary people without spiritual power who had retreated into their dwellings, regardless of age, also came out.

They stood beside these monks, their eyes resolute in their resolve to die, yet filled with a longing for freedom.

Yun Yici's voice choked slightly, and she turned her face away: "I'm sorry, I have never been under the Slave-Binding Curse."

Her words shattered the hopes in the eyes of all the cultivators once again.

The female cultivator remained kneeling, and gave a bitter smile: "Then, senior, we were unintentionally offended today. If you wish to pursue the matter, then arrest us."

"As you can see, these elderly, weak, women and children don't even have spiritual power, so they can't do anything."

"Could you please have mercy and spare their lives?"

Yun Yici raised her hand and said, "I know what you want to do, and I can help you."

"This so-called bondage spell should only bind your bodies and actions, but not your minds."

"I have lingered here for too long today; I fear the Xue family will become suspicious."

"If you want me to help you, then find a way to send a message."

Yun Yici looked at the two maids mixed in with the crowd.

It is obvious that the Xue family, which thought itself to be impregnable, had long harbored the seeds of "freedom".

With just a gentle breeze, they will ignite, break through man-made barriers, and rush towards the vast world.

Yun Yici straightened his sleeves and returned to his residence with two maids as if nothing had happened.

After the two maids left, Zhu Jian couldn't wait to tell Shen Huaichuan everything she had heard.

"Xiao Ci, you're amazing!"

Shen Huaichuan never expected that Yun Yici would encounter such an unexpected ambush after going out.

He frowned and said, "So that's how it is."

"Even so, their power will be limited as long as the binding curse on the Xue family's subordinate cultivators is not lifted."

The bondage curse is like an iron chain around the necks of those monks.

If the matter is exposed before the bondage curse is lifted, given the Xue family's viciousness, they will probably order those cultivators to kill their former companions.

Yun Yici sighed, "The situation in Huangling Domain is really complicated, but it's a good thing that the cultivators in this domain still have the will to save themselves."

Their goal was to find another region as a steadfast ally, rather than to replace the Xue family, who ruled the Huangling Region.

"Hopefully they can figure things out before the demon cultivators from Ximing City arrive."

These cultivators, who were born and died here, must know more about the Xue family's inner workings.

Yun Yici waited for two days.

Perhaps because the snow had stopped and the wind and rain had calmed down, the cultivators in the fourth district finally confirmed that Yun Yici had not betrayed them.

The two maids who had been following Yun Yici suddenly said, "Miss Ziyan really likes the pastries from the outer city."

The fourth district is the outer city.

Yun Yici chuckled lightly, "Then I'll go try it too."

The elegant and handsome Shen Huaichuan "happened" to pass by: "I have nothing to do today, so I'll go for a walk with you."

The two maids' expressions changed instantly.

Yun Yici smiled and said, "You're going too?"

Shen Huaichuan raised an eyebrow slightly, his words carrying a hidden meaning: "Let me see which shop was so impolite last time."

The maids were on the verge of tears: "Madam Yun..."

She only told them to trust her, but she didn't say she was going to call the Demon Lord along too!

Moreover, the Demon Lord's words clearly implied that he knew about what happened last time.

Yun Yici comforted her, "We're on the same side, don't panic."
