Wu Jinliang also got up and said, "Right, let's stall a bit more. He's almost out of blood; let's treat this as a dead horse and see if it can be revived. Old Huang, hurry up."

Alright, Huang Yingying stuffed the Demon Book into the waistband at his back, stood up, and stared for a while at Li Hongjiu, who was still bleeding. Suddenly, he looked bitterly at Shi and Wu and said, "I'll say the ugly words upfront. You're the ones asking me to try. If anything goes wrong, don't blame me."

Shi Chun suddenly roared, "Hurry up!"

It wasn't that he disrespected Heavenly Immortal masters, but their repeated delays were simply intolerable. The man was almost dying, and what was the point of farting around?

Huang Yingying slightly hunched his neck, not daring to speak anymore, quickly collected his emotions, pushed his hands to circulate mana for a moment, then raised a hand to bite his fingertip. With a finger pointing through the air towards Li Hongjiu's crown, a faint red mist immediately emerged from the opening at his fingertip and slowly descended onto Li Hongjiu's ponytailed head.

The red mist slowly sank into his hair strands and penetrated into his skull.

The two beside him watched nervously.

Before long, Huang Yingying withdrew his hand.

Then the two beside him watched eagerly, waiting for his next move, and he shrugged to indicate he was done.

Shi Chun asked in surprise, "Is that it?"

Huang Yingying replied bitterly, "That's all I can do right now. It's not like I can give him too much Blood Essence from a Demon Saint's body. He's human; too much would be unbearable for him too. It's not about how much; if it's effective, this should be enough."

Shi Chun wanted to say something, but as soon as he opened his mouth, his gaze shifted, and not just him, all three of them were staring intently at Li Hongjiu.

Li Hongjiu suddenly made a move, raised both hands, made a Circulation gesture, then slashed twice in front of his body and returned to silence and concentration. This time, they could clearly feel the mana fluctuations on him.

The effect was immediate; the blood trickling from his nostrils abruptly stopped flowing.

The three of them exchanged glances, each revealing a look of delight.

After observing for a while to confirm, Shi Chun softly asked Huang Yingying, "Old Huang, how long till you can completely resolve it for him?"

Huang Yingying thought for a moment, held up one finger, "A day. With my current cultivation, and the additional boost from the ancestor's Blood Essence, entering his cultivation magic skill shouldn't be difficult. Another day at most should definitely be enough."

Shi Chun looked at the quietly meditating Li Hongjiu, then looked at the spatial environment, hastily instructed Wu Jinliang to use magic to dig another cave next door for Huang Yingying to use.

Purely to avoid disrupting Li Hongjiu. Earlier, when Li Hongjiu lost focus, it really scared him terribly.

"I'll do it myself." Huang Yingying quickly spoke up to stop him, with an appearance of not daring to trouble anyone. He already knew Earth Escape Technique, which Wu Jinliang learned from him.

Shi Chun didn't want to shortchange him now. Seeing the Beidou Demon Book strapped to his waist, he couldn't bear to look and stopped him, pulling off the storage bag from his waist and tossing it over once it was empty, "It's yours."

Huang Yingying happily caught it with both hands, expressing gratitude repeatedly. For him, it was absolutely a precious treasure, one with enough value to let him stay in a brothel for ten years without running out.

Wu Jinliang covered his eyes and also found it hard to keep watching. A dignified monk of the Heavenly Immortal Realm, feeling indebted for a Qiankun Bag, was certainly an eye-opening sight.

Watching the merry Huang Yingying dig the cave, Wu Jinliang turned to Shi Chun and sighed, "This time you're bound to have offended Wei Mo badly."

Shi Chun snorted, "I didn't offend him, yet he still sent people to hunt me down. Can it get worse than that?"

Wu Jinliang chuckled, "That's true too."

Once this side was arranged, leaving Wu Jinliang personally to protect, Shi Chun finally had time to take out the Mother-child Talisman to check.

Earlier, he was focused on Li Hongjiu's situation. A message had come through the talisman, but he hadn't managed to check it. Now he had to look immediately, because it was a message from Mulan Jin.

The message read: "Are you alive?"

Shi Chun hurriedly replied: "Alive, and out of danger."

The other side responded: "This is Manxi, what about the treasure sword? You wouldn't break your promise, right?"

The Mulan Jin Mother-child Talisman was indeed contacted by Manxi, as Mulan Jin hadn't gotten a response earlier. Seeing Manxi suspicious that Shi Chun would dare not reply, using the excuse that something must have happened, Mulan Jin simply handed the talisman over to him, letting him contact directly.

And it turned out Manxi did successfully reach Shi Chun.

Shi Chun quickly replied: "Of course I won't break my promise; I will definitely present it later."

Manxi asked: "How long is later?"

Shi Chun replied: "To whom is the Commander going to pass it, I'll arrange it right away."

There was no choice; under the eaves, one must lower their head. He could break his promise with Wei Mo, but he dared not do so with Manxi.

Although, by rules, whoever seizes the treasure gets it, this time it wasn't solely his achievement. The team employed strength to help him seize it, especially with a prior agreement.

Manxi replied: "It doesn't matter who you give it to; it's not impossible to leave it for you to use. You can use it for a month first. If within a month you can seize a thousand tokens from opponents, then this Magical Treasure is considered seized by you alone, and it will belong to you."

Previously, he certainly wouldn't arrange things this way. Now, the Commander was quite excited; his men had such strong abilities, why wouldn't he allow them more space to excel?

It's okay to promise a great reward to entice them to perform.

Using such skills merely to protect Mulan Jin's daughter would be too much of a waste.

He couldn't let others stop protecting Mulan Jin's daughter, so he resorted to enticing.

Shi Chun mulled over it and replied: "Alright, I'll certainly give it a try."

In the Heavenly Court Team's Command Center, Manxi couldn't suppress the curve at the corner of his mouth, sending another message to exert pressure: "Previously you chose to retreat at Nanshan Team's side instead of your own side. How come, are you wary of me as the Commander, fearing I might break my word?"

Shi Chun immediately replied: "I wouldn't dare, there's absolutely no precaution against the Commander. It's simply for the team's consideration. Our whereabouts would inevitably become the target of all, fearing heavy casualties among our own people. Therefore, we let the Nanshan Team members die."

Wanting to exert pressure, Manxi chuckled, realizing this guy was slippery, difficult to handle. His response was appropriate and even showed a sense of strategy; he indeed had some skill, huh.

Enough, now matter how he viewed Shi Chun, he liked him. Therefore, he didn't pursue it further, reiterating once more: "Rest assured, as long as you collect a thousand tokens within a month, I'll definitely keep my promise!"

After their communication ended, he returned the Mother-child Talisman to Mulan Jin, happily reporting, "Commander, don't worry, they're fine and out of danger."

Mulan Jin took back the Mother-child Talisman, glancing at him a couple of times, realizing this was the first time since entering the battle that this bearded man truly smiled so happily.

For Shi Chun leaning against the wall of the cave in the dark passage, unknowingly if fortune never comes in pairs and misfortune doesn't come alone. Just as he'd finished contact with Manxi, the other Mother-child Talisman also had a response, the one linked to Pang Tiansheng.

No need to mention, it was definitely a message from Wei Mo.

Indeed, it was from Wei Mo.

Wei Mo knew that simply messaging couldn't affect Shi Chun, but after confirming he couldn't find Shi Chun's whereabouts, he couldn't resist letting off some steam to avoid frustration.

It was quite a severe warning: "Shi Chun, how dare you break your promise and deceive me!"

Shi Chun's finger drew a spell in the air, replying: "I bear no grudge with Commander Wei, why send people to kill me? Moreover, I haven't broken my promise. Greetings to Pang Tiansheng from me, thank him for the kind treatment at the Punishment Court then."

The meaning of this is simple; there's no question of tricking you, it was you who started it. It doesn't make sense to take a beating without fighting back.

As for not breaking promises, initially it was agreed to hand over the Sky Splitting Sword for Pang Tiansheng's life, you can totally claim Pang Tiansheng's little life now.

On the high platform of the East Victory Team's Command Center, Wei Mo scanned the content on the Mother-child Talisman with wide eyes, not understanding what the Punishment Court was.

Immediately furious, he turned and shouted at Pang Tiansheng standing helplessly in the corner. The anger terrified Pang Tiansheng, and hearing about the kind treatment from Shi Chun at the Punishment Court nearly drove him to tears. He hadn't expected Shi Chun to be so ruthless, still holding grudges from years ago.

He dared not remain silent, unsure what Shi Chun had said to Wei Mo, so he revealed his previous actions at the Punishment Court against Shi Chun and Wu Jinliang.

Upon hearing, Wei Mo, furious to the extreme, was unexpectedly amused, tightly gripped the Mother-child Talisman, a sinister smile spread across his face. That bastard not only broke his word but openly sought revenge using his hand!

But he wouldn't fall for it; it was useless trying to make him spare Pang Tiansheng this way. The more attention it garnered, the less likely he'd spare him. He patted Pang Tiansheng's terrified, tense fat face, saying word by word, "Rest assured, I won't kill you. I'll leave this vendetta for him to avenge personally!"
