Chapter 610

"There is no such thing as 'it would be a waste not to' for this story."

"If you choose not to listen, then I will send you away from this place tomorrow, and even leave this grassland, ensuring you depart safely."

"But if you choose to listen, then you must help me escape this place."

"Since you have been dragged into this, don't think about getting out unscathed."

The girl said this in a tone that was both gentle and overbearing.

Gentle, because she gave Qin Feng the opportunity for absolute freedom of choice.

And overbearing, because once Qin Feng chose to listen to this story, he would have to help Nangong Yuan escape this place.

If he wanted to pull himself out and leave, Nangong Yuan would likely no longer allow it.

Nangong Yuan did not directly ask Qin Feng for help, but instead gave Qin Feng such a choice.

But Qin Feng had a quest to complete, so he would naturally choose to listen to this story.

After all, his quest and Nangong Yuan's request were consistent.

Although the Pudamiya Grassland is vast, it is merely an inconspicuous little grassland within the Mobei region.

In the Mobei region, there is a Wang Ting.

The Wang Ting governs hundreds of grasslands, both large and small, in the Mobei region.

All nomadic tribes on the grasslands hold the Wang Ting in high esteem.

In the Wang Ting, royal power and divine power jointly govern this Mobei region.

The representative of royal power is naturally the Mobei King, while the representative of divine power is the High Priest.

The royal power of the Mobei Wang Ting is hereditary, inherited by the children of each generation of Mobei Kings.

But the divine power of Mobei is heaven-sent.

Each generation of High Priests, according to the instructions of the gods, selects three Saint Sons and three Saintesses as candidates for the next High Priest.

Nangong Yuan was one of them.

As a heaven-sent daughter, Nangong Yuan's talent was peerless, her cultivation far ahead of others, making her the most outstanding figure among this generation's Saint Sons and Saintesses.

And she was kind and approachable.

She was never high and mighty; instead, she loved solving various eerie problems for the various tribes on the grassland and killing the demon beasts that harmed the tribes.

So, over time, Nangong Yuan also gained the love and respect of all the tribes on the entire grassland.

And likewise, if any tribe encountered a terrifying, unsolvable problem, they would also send people to the Wang Ting to request Nangong Yuan's help.

Every time, Nangong Yuan went gladly.

But after all, where there are people, there is strife; even among Saint Sons and Saintesses, jealousy and malice are unavoidable.

Nangong Yuan's situation was already a certainty for the next High Priest.

But how could the other Saint Sons and Saintesses be willing to fail just like that?

Therefore, the other five Saint Sons and Saintesses actually joined forces, united to set a trap, wanting to kick Nangong Yuan out of the game first.

Then the five of them would compete fairly.

Several of them first killed everyone in a tribe, and then refined them all into eerie, evil objects.

And they created an array, a trap to imprison people, wanting to trap Nangong Yuan here.

At the same time, they sent people to the Wang Ting to invite Nangong Yuan to come here to help them.

Nangong Yuan, having no suspicions about this, naturally went gladly and fell into the trap with ease.

Upon entering here, she was trapped and could never leave again.

As for why it was to trap Nangong Yuan rather than kill her.

It was not because they had a conscience and could not bear to harm Nangong Yuan's life.

It was because even if the five of them united to create a great array and sacrificed so many people's lives.

They could not create an array capable of killing Nangong Yuan; at most, they could only trap her.

After all, everyone knows that when cutting grass, one must remove the roots.

However, this trap array was not just for trapping Nangong Yuan.
