“That bastard!” Guan’er angrily cursed, “He thinks he’s so great, all he is, is a greedy wolf who wants to snatch power. If it weren’t for Mistress’ tolerant heart I don’t know how many times he would have died by now.”
“En, a woman’s benevolence can sometimes lead to trouble,” Yang Kai agreed.
“You’re not allow to speak ill of Mistress, Mistress is the world’s gentlest woman!” Guan’er turned back and glared at Yang Kai.
“Good, I won’t say any more,” Yang Kai raised his hands, “But can you tell me now, where is this place? Your all capturing me, what exactly do you want me to do?”
Guan’er smiled brightly and giggled, “Before Mistress allows me to, I won’t tell you anything. Although your Human Race is sinister and conniving, I’m not a three-year-old child; do you think I don’t know your trying to casually pry information from me?”
Yang Kai smiled bitterly.
“However, you can rest assured that we really will not harm you. On the contrary, as Mistress aid, we will help train you, and if you can accomplish the task Mistress has for you, you will gain a lot of benefits.”
“You mentioned you’d train me before, but in what?” Yang Kai asked, “What matter do you need me to do that requires my Conflagrated Knowledge Sea?”
However, to Yang Kai’s questions, Guan’er didn’t say any more, firmly sealing her lips.
Not long after, upon bringing Yang Kai to a stone chamber, Guan’er said, “Go inside, from now on, this place will be your residence. You don’t need to worry about anything for now, we’ll prepare everything you require. En, although no one will be monitoring your movements, don’t even think about trying to escape, there’s nowhere you can run. This place is a sealed space, there’s no way out.”
Yang Kai stared at her indignantly.
Guan’er grinned back, “It’s useless to glare at me, I’m just carrying out Mistress’ commands. Good, I’ll see you tomorrow.”
In this way, Yang Kai was pushed into the stone room, and after she closed the door, Guan’er simply walked away.
After she left, Yang Kai reached out and tried opening the stone door and found that he really could open it and that there truly was no one was around watching him.
However, in this kind of sealed world, where he was completely unfamiliar with the terrain, Yang Kai knew there was basically no hope for him to escape.
He also determined that no matter where he fled, the beautiful woman he had just met with could easily capture him and bring him back.
Accepting his current reality, Yang Kai’s state of mind quickly became tranquil; closing the stone door, her turned around and started exploring his new home.
From a quickly glance around, Yang Kai discovered that this place was actually quite spacious and was even larger than grand hall he had just been in, there was also a distinct medicinal fragrance that lingered inside the room.
In one corner of the room, there were several large and small medicinal cauldrons.
The biggest of these was as large as a water tank while the smallest was only slightly bigger than his palm.
On the ground nearby, there was a large pile of burnt materials that were the result of failed pills.
Yang Kai frowned.
This room seemed to be an Alchemist’s residence.
Examining the cauldrons, Yang Kai discovered that each of them was actually a pill furnace used to perform Alchemy.
In another corner, Yang Kai found a long table piled high with what seemed to be a mix of ancient books and handwritten notes.
