Tang Tian opened his eyes once again, and realised that he was lying on a bed.
The bed was made of stone, the bedding was simple but extrely clean. Tang Tian beca slightly dazed, as though he had returned to the ti when he was
in Star Wind City. The many years of training and fighting, the young man’s simpleness had beco more solid through the grindings.
He was dazed for that mont, before thinking about the rest and seated himself up.
~Where am I?~
~Where are the rest?~
“Don’t worry about your companion.” An old lady’s voice caused Tang Tian to be startled, his face changed. He was completely unable to sense the person.
Tang Tian cald down, his rich experience told him that if the other party had any hostility towards him, they would not have made any sound.
An old lady dressed in brown sat at a chair not far from him, she held a cane on one hand, and used her other hand to pour tea, and then slowly drank the tea.
Beside her, a young lady dressed in green stood straight, playing with her ponytail, her black clear eyes looked at Tang Tian curiously.
“Who are you guys? What is this place? Where are my companions?” Tang Tian asked without relaxing.
Upon rembering that everyone’s whereabouts were unknown, he beca anxious, but he had to suppress the impatience in his heart as he knew it was of no help.
His rationality prevailed over his emotions, which was sothing rarely seen in him.
“This is the Xue Family of Purple Cuckoo City, and I am the Matriarch.” The old lady had a kind appearance, she placed the cup down, and with a look of admiration:
“You’re still stuck with the thoughts of your companions even when unconscious, you are a good young man that attaches importance in comradeship. Don’t worry,
though your companions will suffer slightly, but they are out of danger. In the Sin Domain, no one will waste manpower.”
Tang Tian did not understand and asked: “Why?”
The old lady said indifferently: “In the Sin Domain, manpower is the most valuable resource.”
Sin Domain?
In this short conversation, Tang Tian had already heard the na twice, but he had never heard of such a place. He did not concern himself much over this matter,
and imdiately asked: “Can I ask if you know where my companions are?”
“I don’t really know.” The old lady shook her head: “This ti, Purple Cuckoo City picked up 300 people, which were all swept clean by the other families.
Who knew that there were two that escaped the net, you’re one, and the other was a young lady. She was bought by Little Da Lin, while I bought you.”
Tang Tian’s face turned pale white as he muttered: “Only 300 people.....”
Seeing his unhappy expression, the old lady imdiately knew that he had more than 300 companions, and said: “If you have more companions, they were
definitely swept into the other cities. Every year, the Blue Sea will produce a Sin Tide, and many Blue Dwarves will rush up every year, the various families
will go to and pick up these Blue Dwarves.”
“Why pick them up?” Tang TIan asked.
“For labour.” The old lady replied indifferently: “The Sin Domain is extrely lacking in laborers, so you do not need to worry, they are definitely safe
from danger, if they are not obedient, at most they will have to do even more tough work.”
“I need to go and look for them!” Tang Tian stood up without hesitation.
The old lady did not even open he
r eyes: “Such affection is good, but you should not have such audacious thoughts. You were bought by the Xue Family,
and you are now a servant of the Xue Family. Doing your job well is your duty now.”
“Servant?” Tang Tian was startled.
“I spent 200,000 dollars on you.” The old lady said: “If you can take out 200,00 thousand to buy yourself off, you are free to walk.”
~200,000 do–dollars.....servant.....~
Tang Tian was dumbstruck, but in the next mont, his eyes beca clear again, he shook his head with determination: “I am sorry, I have no money!
I will definitely return you your 200,000 dollars, but for now, I need to save my companions!”
Tang Tian decided to leave.
The old lady’s voice ca out from behind: “You can’t go. In the Sin Domain, any slave that escapes are treated as capital offenses. Servants who secretly plot
to escape are also treated as such. No matter how powerful and capable you are, you cannot go against the entire Sin Domain. Once your matters are exposed,
you will not even be in ti to save them, they will be sentenced to death.”
Tang Tian turned around and stared at her in anger: “You.....”
“Your impulsiveness will only harm them.” The old lady remained expressionless: “As long as you step out of the Xue Family, you will be seen as an escaped slave,
and will be exposed through the Sin Domain Wanted List. If anything happens to the Xue Family, the Sin Domain will reexamine whether or not the batch of servants
that ca together are safe, at that ti, your companions will not only be doing tough work.”
Tang Tian’s face flushed red, his fists were clenched so tightly that they started to crack, he was completely infuriated.
The old lady remained emotionless: “I admire your comradeship. As long as you do your work well, I will help you obtain so information on the whereabouts of
your companions. The Sin Domain is not too big and not too small, and my Xue Family can obtain information much easier than you can. This old one promises you,
if you are able to achieve good work for the Xue Family, I will set you free. If your contributions are huge enough, I can even buy the freedom of your companions.
Although my Xue Family is not so big aristocratic family in the Sin Domain, everyone will give so face.”
Tang TIan clenched his fists tightly, after a mont, he raised his head and said: “What do you want to do?”
The old lady smiled: “This old one will arrange that for you, take a rest first.”
The two of them left Tang Tian’s residence and returned to the inner courtyard.
The young lady in green was impressed: “Madam is truly powerful, to subdue him in a few sentences! But Ming Zhu was so afraid when Madam removed the needles
from his body, Ming Zhu was afraid he would start hurting people the mont he woke up.”
“He kept on asking for his comrades even when he had lost consciousness, he cannot be so bad to that extent.” The old lady said with heartfelt words:
“You must bear this in mind! People who attach importance in profit can be bought with money, people who attach importance in comradeship can be restricted
with affections. He might not be extrely willing, but as a person of responsibility, he will naturally not be so reckless. If you want people to work for you,
you cannot just employ them forcefully, you must know what he wants.”
Ming Zhu respectfully said: “Ming Zhu will rember.”
The old lady suddenly asked: “Did you find out about the harvest of the various families?”
“As of the mont, I do not know much, but there have a bit of information about the other cities, that this batch of people is more than a thousand.”
Ming Zhu imdiately reported.
“More than a thousand.” The old lady’s face beca gloomy as she muttered to herself: “It is troubled tis, seems like the Sin Domain will not be peaceful.”
“Madam, are you saying that there is an issue of where these people ca from?” Ming Zhu’s face changed.
“In all the recent Sin Tides, the ones that co here are Blue Dwarves, but this ti they are humans, it seems that they ca from the Blue Sea.”
The old lady said gloomily: “Their numbers are too much for people investigating the Blue Sea. I am afraid they are trying to look for sothing in the Blue Sea.
From what he said just now, these thousand odd people are his companions, what do you think about a body filled with a few thousand people?”
Ming Zhu blurted out: “An Army!”
“That’s right, an army. I think he is not any ordinary soldier as well, if not he would not have such a responsible heart.” The old lady laughed: “Initially,
I saw that he had a strong body and figured that the children that he would produce will have outstanding talents. My Xue Family does not have any good n,
and all of you little girls are reaching the age to give birth, I also have consider these matters. If not, why do you think I would spend 200 thousand on a
male servant?”
Ming Zhu never thought that that was the plan of the Madam, her face imdiately blushed red and did not speak any further.
The old lady retracted her smile and sighed: “From the looks of it, he is a stubborn man, and cannot be forced. But he has just arrived in the Sin Domain,
he is still sharp in the corners, after a while here, those sharp corners will be grinded away, at that ti, even all of his great ambitions should be exhausted,
he would then fully assimilate into the Sin Domain. Maybe I have over thought it, much less an army, even if it were a few armies that ca to this wasteland,
what can they do? Slowly grind away their hopes and dreams.”
Ming Zhu’s expression looked dim.
Tang Tian opened his eyes, his complexion extrely ugly.
Not only could he not summon out the Null Flas, but the Cross Door that never had any problems before had trouble.
The Cross Door was dim, as though it was almost dark, and no matter how much he tried to connect to it, the dim Cross Door had no changes.
This ant that he had lost all connections.
~Damn it!~
He punched the stone bed.
He forced himself to calm down, he stopped thinking about the effect that the storm had ford, because it was pointless.
Regret and remorse were pointless. The only thought that he had in his mind was to find everybody else.
~What should I do?~
~The old lady’s words might be a reminder or a caution. But regardless if it is real or fake, I definitely cannot be reckless, as it involves everyone’s lives.~
~I will first find out where we are, Purple Cuckoo City, Sin Domain, I have never heard of such a place, much less what continent I am on.~
When Tang TIan noticed the environnt around him, he imdiately noticed sothing off.
~There is no energy in the air!~
This was Tang Tian’s first ti experience a place with no energy, even the places with the thinnest of energy, for example Lupus Constellation, would have a
substantial difference in sensation, as the thin energy was still energy. There was no need to talk about the Sacred Saint Galaxy where the air was brimming with
energy.
~This isn’t the Sacred Saint Galaxy!~
Tang Tian realised.
He curiously looked around, the house was extrely simple, a bed with a table and two chairs. The bed was made of stone, while the table and chairs were made
from an unknown wood, and the work was extrely crude.
Tang Tian touched the stone bed, then dug out a few chips of wood from the table, after grinding them with his fingers, he placed his senses on them.
~This is definitely not the Sacred Saint Galaxy!~
Tang Tian beca certain, there was no energy inside the materials. This was impossible in the Sacred Saint Galaxy or Heaven’s Road, the energy that was in the
air would cause every object in the world to contain so energy, sand, rocks, water, everything would have energy in them, the only question was how little.
~I have no connections, I am penniless, I am unfamiliar to this environnt, my own strength is disabled, and I know nothing of this place, or what situation the
rest of them are.....~
Tang Tian had encountered plenty of danger and troubles before, but he had never experienced sothing as drastic as this. The unprecedented situation did not
discourage Tang Tian, but instead made him even more determined.
He closed his eyes and took a few deep breaths. The anxiousness in his heart gradually disappeared. He opened his eyes again, and his eyes were extrely clear.
He needed to take the initiative to associate himself and familiarise himself with the Sin Domain, and needed to work hard to think of a way to recover
his strength, only from that could he have an opportunity.
Upon setting his resolve, Tang Tian no longer hesitated.
He went to find the Old Lady.
“I’ve recovered, what do you need to do?”
