After knocking the man unconscious, Tai Yi said to Di Tian:
"Di Tian, I'll have to trouble you to keep him unconscious until we reach Spirit City. And I'll also have to trouble you to carry him back to Spirit City."
Upon hearing this, Di Tian said:
"Don't worry. Leave it to me."
As he spoke, Di Tian sent a strand of Soul Power into Blood One's body, ensuring that Blood One could not wake up on his own. Then Di Tian raised his hand, and Soul Power surged forth, lifting Blood One into the air from a distance and making him hover beside him.
Seeing this, Tai Yi said:
"We've caught him. Let's head back to Spirit City."
As he spoke, the three of them flew toward Spirit City.
Not only did Tai Yi not return Snow Empress to the Donghuang Bell, but he also released the other six ferocious beasts.
The reason was simple. On their way to Star Luo City, they had seen ministers cultivating evil arts allowing their soldiers to harm the local people. In order not to alert the enemy and put Bibi Dong's lackey in Di Tian's custody on guard, they had not touched those ministers or soldiers cultivating evil arts.
But things were different now that they were heading back to Spirit City. They had caught the person they wanted, so why should they care about anything else?
Thus, Tai Yi released all the ferocious beasts from the Donghuang Bell so that, on the journey back, any Evil Soul Master they encountered would be killed on sight without mercy.
Then the group arrived at a town near Star Luo City. Naturally, there was a minister cultivating evil arts in the town, along with over a thousand soldiers who cultivated evil arts under him.
