"What are you doing?" Xierui exclaimed in surprise.

"What’s this? The Fallen Angel Lord, who can wipe out half the town with a wave, is starting to care about the lives of ordinary people?" Ye Haochuan sneered.

"I..." Xierui was at a loss for words.

When she was in a high position, she never considered the lives of these ordinary people as anything significant. Now, having descended from the clouds and standing among ordinary people, she suddenly realized how domineering she was back then. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

"Ah~"

A few terrified screams suddenly rang out from the tavern. Xierui then discovered that there were still people alive inside.

She looked closely and found that the survivors were precisely those women used as playthings.

"Wait, the skin color of these women is... Asian?"

Xierui looked at Ye Haochuan in astonishment, a storm brewing in her heart: "This guy, just because a few Asian women were used as playthings, did he kill everyone in the tavern? Making all the noble Caucasians in the tavern die for a few despicable Asians? This guy is mad!"

Perhaps due to her upbringing, even now, Xierui still believed that Caucasians were inherently nobler than Asians.

"You madman, you think this is rescuing them? With what you did, they’ll only die more tragically!" Xierui mocked.

Ye Haochuan ignored her and simply said to the women, "If you wish to live like humans, follow me. If you wish to continue being slaves, I’ll find the next master for you. The choice is yours."

The women looked at the murderous Ye Haochuan in terror, trembling and hesitant.

"I want to follow you. I want to live like a human. I don’t want to be enslaved and treated like a dog anymore!" The first to speak was the girl who had just been whipped.

The other women exchanged glances, struggling inwardly, but ultimately didn’t step forward.

In their view, that girl was too impulsive; the man before them, who would kill at the slightest offense, was clearly a difficult person to deal with.

Moreover, they had been slaves for so long that suddenly being told they could be free was hard for them to accept.

"I respect your choice. Now, find some clothes to wear and follow me!" Ye Haochuan said dominantly.

These women clearly knew that staying here was a dead end, so they obediently followed Ye Haochuan.

As they traveled through the town, this group clearly attracted significant attention, but Ye Haochuan didn’t care, pushing through the crowd.

Based on the information he’d just gathered, the Holy See had raised the Wanted Order against him to the highest level. He believed that those secluded eight-winged angels had already emerged and were searching for him everywhere.

At a time like this, causing such a commotion would obviously draw attention and expose his location.

However, this was intentional.

While fleeing indiscriminately before, he had really gone the wrong direction, opposite the route back to find Lin Qingxuan. Now wanting to recalibrate his path, causing a stir here was a way to mislead the Holy See’s pursuers into chasing the wrong direction.

Leaving the town, Ye Haochuan placed all the women on the Flying Sword and flew hundreds of miles to the next town.

Ye Haochuan found a Noble Clan and directly forced the clan leader to sign a Blood Covenant with him, leaving the women who didn’t want to follow him there, and instructed the clan leader to treat them well.

With his life in Ye Haochuan’s hands, the clan leader dared not refuse, treating the women like ancestors, surprising them with the preferential treatment...

After settling things, Ye Haochuan took Xierui and the girl into the Heaven Escape Bead and started traveling.

"What’s your name?" Ye Haochuan asked the timid girl.

"I’m Li Yun!" the girl answered crisply, then suddenly plucked up courage and asked Ye Haochuan, "Big brother, can you teach me cultivation?"

"You want to cultivate? Why?" Ye Haochuan asked with interest.

"The sisters all say that if you cultivate, you can become really powerful. Then, I won’t fear those Caucasians who bully us!" Li Yun said dreamily.

"Good, you have spirit!" Ye Haochuan praised, then began searching through his ring.

Soon, Ye Haochuan took out a large bag of red crystals and the Secret Manual of the Manual of Returning to the Origin of Wondrous Flowers.

"Read this manual first. If you don’t understand something, ask me. Once you’ve understood it, you can start trying to cultivate..." Before he finished speaking, Li Yun’s eyes lit up as she eagerly snatched the Secret Manual and started reading.

"You can understand Chinese?" Seeing Li Yun reading seriously, Ye Haochuan asked in surprise.

"Chinese? Isn’t this the original language of the Hua Clan? Grandpa said that even though we’ve fallen now, being bullied by those Caucasians every day, we cannot forget our roots. We must know the Hua Clan’s characters!" Li Yun said earnestly.

"You say you’re from the Hua Clan?" Ye Haochuan was extraordinarily surprised.

"Yes, grandpa says that the Asians in this world are all descendants of the Hua Clan. Grandpa also said that the world used to be ruled by the Hua Clan, but something happened later that allowed these Caucasians to rise and start oppressing us!"

As she spoke, Li Yun clenched her fists tightly, showing signs of indignation.

"If they’re all descendants of the Hua Clan, it seems destroying the Holy See is indeed my unavoidable responsibility!" Ye Haochuan vowed inwardly.

He had previously thought, as they shared the same skin color, he should help the Asians here. Now knowing these people are of the Hua Clan, Ye Haochuan suddenly felt he had both the responsibility and duty to rescue these people from their afflictions.

"Where is your grandpa now?" Ye Haochuan asked curiously.

"My grandpa has passed away!" Tears welled up in Li Yun’s eyes, as she choked, "Grandpa was beaten to death by those Caucasians, so I must learn to be strong and avenge grandpa!"

Ye Haochuan’s eyes showed a hint of sympathy as he encouraged her, "As long as you focus on cultivating, I believe your wish will be realized soon!"

He didn’t choose to avenge her grandpa directly, not wanting to waste time on it, but believing that letting Li Yun do it herself would truly relieve her, and having this enmity would further motivate Li Yun in her cultivation.

In the days that followed, the three squeezed into the small Heaven Escape Bead, with Li Yun consistently attempting cultivation, while Ye Haochuan guided her, occasionally teasing Xierui.

Without realizing it, the three had journeyed through mountains and waters, returning to the small town governed by the Kris Family.

"What’s happened, why is there no one?" Seeing the chaos in the Kris Family, Ye Haochuan frowned.
