After Mo Ruxue left, Ye Wen finally let out a long sigh of relief. She was finally gone. Her long-held high position had given her an innate dignity that an ordinary person like Ye Wen couldn't handle!
But upon hearing the conditions she agreed to, Ye Wen couldn't help but feel excited.
If he absorbed two more Devil Cores, would his Pre-cancerous Cells be able to divide again?
This was what Ye Wen cared about the most.
As expected, it wasn't long before a squad of guards arrived in front of Ye Wen's room. The captain of the guards respectfully handed a box to Ye Wen.
When Ye Wen took the box and opened it, two egg-sized stones, one green and one red, lay inside.
Ye Wen excitedly thanked the captain of the guards, who replied very humbly.
"Sir, you are too kind. We have delivered the items and will now report back. Please don't see us out, sir. Goodbye!"
With that, the captain of the guards led his men away from Ye Wen's room. After they had gone quite a distance, a voice suddenly called out.
"Brother Gao, this Mage sir is so approachable. He's not cold and aloof like the ones we've met before."
The captain of the guards' voice responded, "Don't gossip about Mages behind their backs. Are you looking to die?!"
Ye Wen closed the door and muttered to himself.
"What, Mage? They think I'm a Mage? What exactly is a Mage?"
Back in the inner room, Ye Wen looked at the three young maids in the room. They seemed very nervous, even a little afraid of him.
He suddenly remembered Mo Ruxue's words and looked at the maids again, realizing they all looked about fifteen or sixteen years old. They were all minors.
Ye Wen had no intention of corrupting young girls right now. He waved his hand at them and said, "You can go out now. I'm going to sleep, I don't want to be disturbed. Don't bother me if there's nothing important."
The three maids finally breathed a sigh of relief and left Ye Wen's room, closing the door behind them.
Ye Wen was, in fact, a normal man and would like to sleep with beautiful women. But he was a virgin, inexperienced, and thus afraid, especially with three of them.
Besides, he always felt that there was some hidden purpose beneath the Grand Princess's aggressive gaze. He was even more afraid to casually touch the maids that woman had given him. Who knew if they were a gentle trap?
Looking at the Devil Cores in the box, Ye Wen wore a lecherous smile. This was the energy for him to become stronger, the foundation for his survival.
Ye Wen quickly took one out, placed it in his hand, and began circulating the Endless Sacred Dao Scripture. This green Devil Core, just like the monkey Devil Core, emitted a faint green light, which was absorbed by Ye Wen's flesh and blood, eventually flowing into his Pre-cancerous Cells.
During this process, Ye Wen discovered that the Devil Core could be absorbed as long as it was close to his body.
He had a sudden idea. He held the Devil Core to his chest and pressed it with his hand. The absorption speed increased significantly at this point.
As expected, the closer it was to the Pre-cancerous Cells, the faster the absorption.
Two hours later, Ye Wen had completely absorbed the green Devil Core, but his Pre-cancerous Cells still showed no signs of having absorbed energy.
So, Ye Wen immediately took out another Devil Core and began refining and absorbing it again. This red Devil Core also emitted a red light, which Ye Wen absorbed into his Pre-cancerous Cells.
Through the absorption of the three Devil Cores, Ye Wen guessed that different colors of Devil Cores should represent different elemental energies.
The monkey Devil Core was yellow, so it should be an earth-attribute Devil Core. The red one, needless to say, must have come from those fire-breathing Giant Beasts, representing the fire attribute. Was the green Devil Core wood-attribute, or life-attribute?
After Ye Wen finished absorbing the red Devil Core, his Pre-cancerous Cells still showed no signs of having absorbed energy. Ye Wen was a little depressed. He had absorbed three Devil Cores, yet they weren't fully energized.
But on the other hand, he thought that this meant the subsequent division would lead to a greater increase.
Thinking this way, he felt much better. He was safe now anyway; no one in Demon Suppressing City could kill him.
The next morning, Ye Wen woke up a bit late because it was already very late after refining the two Devil Cores last night.
At this moment, the Little County Princess came and knocked on his door.
Her sister had come to find her last night and told her to accompany Ye Wen to the library today.
Her sister had also repeatedly hinted that she should inquire more about Ye Wen's situation.
For example, who his master was, what Cultivation Method he practiced, and it would be best if they could keep him to serve Demon Suppressing City!
So, she came to find Ye Wen early in the morning with her mission.
Ye Wen seemed to have just fallen asleep when the noise outside the door woke him up.
The body-strengthening effect of the Endless Sacred Dao Scripture was excellent, but it didn't help much with mental power. He still needed sleep, otherwise, he would always be mentally exhausted.
He opened the door and saw the Little County Princess and another woman standing outside, looking at Ye Wen with disdain because he couldn't help but yawn after opening the door.
"Ye Wen, looking at you, you seem more exhausted now than when you killed the Giant Tiger before. Did you have another rough night?"
