Protector Zuo led Ye Tian and the Three-eyed Poisonous Wolf back to the Sea Demon Clan's core encampment, Roaming Jade Palace, after about an hour. The whole palace was made of emerald green crystal, and all kinds of algae plants were growing on the outside, surrounding the entire palace.
Seeing that Protector Zuo and the Sea Demon Princess had returned, the Sea Demon Clan women who were touring the palace all knelt down in salute. At this moment, the Sea Demon Tribe member indifferently said to Left Protector, "Xue Jiao, bring this person to your Hall of Protectors. I have something to ask him."
"Understood." The Left Protector replied respectfully. After that, he brought Ye Tian and the Three-eyed Poison Wolf into the Roaming Jade Temple and headed towards a side hall. After arriving at the Hall of Protectors, Protector Zuo indifferently said to Ye Tian, "You should rest here for a while. When the princess has something to ask you, you'd better answer honestly. Otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite."
"Yes, junior understands." Ye Tian replied with a pale face. Inwardly, he was sighing that the situation was better than the person, and he had no choice but to lower his head.
After about an incense stick of time, the Sea Demon race princess walked in from outside the Guardian Hall. She quietly sized up Ye Tian for a while before asking, "You aren't from my sea realm, right? Why are you being chased by the Sea race?"
Ye Tian's face paled as he replied, "Princess' Divine Vision, I am not a person of the sea realm. I am a human cultivator named Ye Tian. I travelled through this place to find something in the Savage Forest." Right now, there was a Five Calamity Rogue Immortal keeping an eye on her, and that Sea Clan Princess was unable to see through her cultivation realm. In addition to that, Ye Tian had already used up too much of his blood essence, so he didn't have much combat power.
"So that's how it is. I heard from the scout below that you were only at the early stage of Soul Formation, yet you were able to injure two Loose Immortals. I was very curious and wanted to ask if you were telling the truth." The Sea Demon Princess asked Ye Tian in curiosity.
Ye Tian heard this and bitterly smiled. "To tell you the truth, Princess, I actually repelled those four tribulation Loose Immortals by relying on a secret technique. However, this secret technique requires the sacrifice of one's own blood essence, so I have become like this."
"I didn't expect there to be such a secret art. By the way, what are you doing in Savage Forest? Why are you being chased by those guys again?" The Sea Demon Princess seemed to be very interested in Ye Tian's matters, as she stared at him with her large eyes and asked.
Ye Tian, seeing the Sea Demon Clan princess' appearance, couldn't help but think of Ning Xue. However, he also saw Left Protector, so he quickly composed himself and replied, "Ah, one look isn't enough, I went to Savage Forest to find wood essence to save lives, but unfortunately, when I was passing by the sea, I discovered that the son of the chief of the Black Water Tribe was surrounded by girls. He killed the only son of the chief of the Black Water Tribe in anger, which is why he was chased down."
As Ye Tian spoke, he silently recited the 'Sacred Heart Sutra' in his heart, causing his mind to be calm without a single ripple. Because he knew that for a Five Tribulations Rogue Immortal like Left Protector, as long as he used his divine sense to scan the speed of the blood in your body while you were speaking, he would know whether or not you were lying. No matter how he hid himself in front of experts, it was useless. However, Ye Tian's sage realm cultivation technique was different.
"Humph, those scum from the sea should really be killed. By the way, can you please go and search for the wood essence?" As far as I know, the Wood Essence Qi is something that those old monsters would cultivate with their lives, so it's probably very difficult for you to get it with your cultivation. "Fellow Daoist, you should think twice. Our sea area is not far from Savage Forest. No one knows the situation there better than us, the Sea race." When the Sea Clan Princess heard about the actions of the chief's son, she was first enraged and then reminded Ye Tian.
"Hehe, thank you for your reminder, Your Highness. But I can't go, because my teacher urgently needs the wood essence to save him." Ye Tian spoke with an exceptionally sorrowful expression.
"Fellow Daoist's master?" The Sea Demon Princess unconsciously addressed Ye Tian differently.
"Yes, my master was also a Mastery Stage cultivator, but unfortunately, he was plotted against, his meridians were broken, and even his dantian was damaged, so he is unable to cultivate at all. He can only rely on wood essence to recover, so no matter how dangerous it is, I still have to try." Ye Tian righteously said.
"Fellow Daoist, you truly are a loyal person. I truly admire you." The Sea Demon Princess looked at Ye Tian with admiration as she spoke.
"Princess is too serious. I haven't thanked you for saving my life, but if I am able to return the wood essence to save my master, I will return the favor." Ye Tian spoke with a serious expression.
My name is Hai Mengyi, we of the Sea Demon Tribe only have one surname, and that is Hai. Since you are such a loyal person, I am extremely impressed with you. The Sea Demon Princess said to Ye Tian with a smile.
"I would not dare." Ye Tian pretended to be honest as he said in fear.
Why wouldn't I dare? Could it be that Fellow saw the attitude of Meng Yi towards those Rogue Immortals and thought that Meng Yi was a cold-blooded person? Oh right, Fellow's blood essence injuries were too severe. I will send some blood grass over to Fellow to help you recover some blood essence. Sea Demon Princess Hai Mengyi said in amusement when she saw Ye Tian's expression.
"If that's the case, then I'll have to thank the princess for her kindness." Ye Tian bowed and greeted.
Yes, you should rest here for a while. I still have something I need to do. Protector Zuo will have someone arrange a place for you to stay later. Hai Mengyi said lightly. He then led the Left Protector out of the hall.
After Hai Mengyi and Left Protector had left, the Three-eyed Poisonous Wolf smiled evilly and said, "Master, you're really amazing. Little San had followed the old master before, but he had never seen such a powerful old master."
Ye Tian was startled when he heard that and asked curiously, "Impressive? "What do you mean?"
"Hehe, I'm lying. Master didn't even blink when he said it. Truly amazing. Little San admires you." The Three-eyed Poison Wolf laughed.
"Sigh, do you think I'm willing? If you don't make it a little more pitiful, what if that Sea Goblin Princess had her people directly destroy us?" Sigh, do you think I am willing, if you don't make it a little more pitiful, what if that Sea Goblin Princess had her people directly destroy us? With that said, Ye Tian sat down cross-legged and began to recover.
After leaving the Hall of Protectors, Hai Mengyi turned to Left Protector and asked, "Xue Jiao, do you think what that person said was true?"
"To reply Princess, it should be true. When he was speaking, I used my divine sense to check the flow of his blood, and found that the flow of his blood was steady, and it didn't seem like he was lying. Besides, I also heard that humans have always paid attention to loyalty and filial piety, so it's not surprising that he could risk his life to go to that Savage Forest to find wood essence." The Left Protector lightly replied.
"Mm, I don't think he's lying anymore. This person is loyal and kind, able to be hunted down by a Loose Immortal for the sake of saving a girl he doesn't know. Unfortunately, we can't help him." Hai Mengyi said helplessly.
"Hehe, the princess told me to send someone to give him some Blood Ember Grass to replenish his blood essence, isn't that just helping him?" Protector Zuo said with a smile.
"Sigh, sort of. Oh yeah, I'll go ask mother about it later. How's the situation with the clan?" After saying that, Hai Mengyi quickly walked forward.
