Ye Zi came before Su Ming, Ji Yao, and the others and said.

"Since the guild war has ended..."

"Come with me," every look and smile of hers was naturally charming.

"Where to?" Su Ming asked with a frown.

"To my lair, of course," she said with a smile.

"Don't all witches have evil lairs? Haven't you read fairy tales?" she said with a beaming smile, teasing Su Ming.

Su Ming felt he was being toyed with, but he couldn't lash out.

After all, Ye Zi had saved him and everyone else; she was a benefactor to him.

"You are after the vampire blood in Ji Yao's body, aren't you?" Su Ming said.

"Correct."

"It must be extremely fresh, so you must come to the scene."

She said.

"That depends on whether Ji Yao is willing," Su Ming's expression was solemn.

He could not make the decision for Ji Yao.

Ji Yao stepped forward.

"I will go with you."

Her answer was without hesitation.

"Sister Ye Zi, you saved everyone; never mind a drop of blood, you can even drain me dry if you want!" her eyes were firm.

"Very well, you two come with me," Ye Zi nodded.

"Your other friends can go with Old Goose to rest at my Fat Goose Inn; it's free," she said with a smile.

"Yan Ze, you take Ni Shuang and Yun Qing to the inn to rest with Old Goose," Su Ming said, turning around.

"After Ji Yao and I finish handling the matter for the honored Lady Ye, we will come to rendezvous, and then go to Shushan," Su Ming made his plan.

"Fine," Yan Ze nodded.

Subsequently, everyone at the scene teleported out of the dungeon.

The guild war had completely come to an end!

For Su Ming, who was at the fifth-turn, the rewards for this D-grade dungeon were no longer worth looking at; even the hidden treasures or boss rewards were not of a high enough grade, so he did not bother searching for or killing the boss.

He left the dungeon decisively.

What he wanted to do now was very simple.

That was to quickly give Ye Zi what she wanted, repay the favor, and then rush to the Shushan dungeon.

He had a premonition that there, he would be able to unlock the final seal of his Nine Swords of Dugu!

Moreover, he might even break through to the sixth-turn there and join the ranks of the honored ones!

Su Ming held Ji Yao's hand and teleported away with Ye Zi.

Upon landing, he only felt a cold, eerie aura surge into his heart.

Su Ming looked up.

It turned out to be a deep, dark cave.

The rocks were pitted and uneven, no sunlight reached inside, and the walls were carved with various concealment and defensive array patterns.

Blue-green soul light flickered everywhere, quiet and terrifying, making one's spine chill.

From here, faint, hoarse, painful groans and wails could be heard from time to time.

Su Ming held Ji Yao's hand and followed closely behind Ye Zi.

Little Ming stood on Su Ming's shoulder, flapped its wings, and circled the cave, looking around curiously.

But suddenly, it bumped into a terrifying barrier and was so scared that it immediately turned back and returned to Su Ming's shoulder.

After all, its temperament was still that of a child.

"This... is this witch's secret place," she smiled faintly.

"Except for you two, not many people know about it."

The secret chamber in the cave was not large, probably only about a thousand square meters.

In the very center, a strange, twisted array was placed, composed of fresh blood, and inside were some black magic tools and clay demon statues.

Around it were many chains binding some strangely shaped monsters, aliens, and demons.

They were all tightly tied to the rocks, their bodies wrapped in chains.

The variety of monsters was vast.

There were demons, orcs, goblins, earth-stone pseudo-dragons, snake people, and so on.

They had ferocious faces, their limbs clawing and scratching, and the shackles on their necks were embedded into their flesh, which was bloody and mangled; one could imagine how many years they had been imprisoned.

And most terrifyingly, the nails and teeth of these monsters were incomplete, and their wounds were bloody, as if they had been forcibly pulled out.

"Ugh... ahhh..."

Their weak groans, though hoarse and indistinct, seemed to pierce through the ears and straight into the marrow.

Seeing this scene, Ji Yao couldn't help but feel terrified.

She had never imagined that the seemingly kind Senior Ye Zi would be so cruel.

Seeing this situation, Su Ming also frowned slightly and remained silent.

He had already prepared himself mentally, but he still felt shocked.

"Hehe, don't be afraid; they are very docile," Ye Zi arched her willow eyebrows and said with a gentle smile.

As if these monsters were her pets.

"They are all aliens I bought or captured from the frontier battlefield."

As she spoke, her smile faded and became calm.

"Falling into such a miserable state is just what they deserve."

"If they hadn't attacked my human race, how would I have had the opportunity to imprison them and use them as medicinal materials?" she smiled slightly.

Clatter.

Suddenly, the sound of iron chains vibrating rang out.

A snake-person prisoner's anger surged, and it roared.
