The Sixth Disciple!

The fourth-tier golden eagle Demon Beast was incredibly fast. Soaring through the sky, it could fly in a straight line without encountering any obstacles. Even if someone spotted it and saw that there were people on its back, they would know it was a demon pet and would not attack.

In just three two-hour periods, the fourth-tier golden eagle Demon Beast reached Bianjing. Even so, the time it had taken showed just how vast the Chu Kingdom was.

"We're in Bianjing!"

Lin Ye had the golden eagle Demon Beast descend, and it soon landed in the wilderness.

"Master, what about me? I can't enter Bianjing," the golden eagle Demon Beast asked.

"Don't worry, I can take you in with me."

Lin Ye took out the Beast-Taming Ring. It floated above the golden eagle's head and sucked it straight inside.

"Master, what is this place?"

"The space inside the Beast-Taming Ring. Just stay in there and cultivate."

Lin Ye put away the Beast-Taming Ring and headed toward Bianjing with his junior sister Yu Yu.

Bianjing.

This was the imperial capital of the Chu Kingdom, a place of immense prosperity with a great many martial artists. True Qi Realm martial artists were not exactly everywhere here, but they were not considered experts either. Only Innate Realm martial artists counted as experts.

"Wow, Bianjing really is beautiful!"

Walking along Bianjing's streets, Yu Yu gazed in surprise at the magnificent pavilions all around her. She was also a little curious about the many delicacies and snacks here.

"Come on, let's take care of business first."

"All right."

Yu Yu reluctantly followed Lin Ye away.

Lin Ye simply bought a map of Bianjing and soon found the location of the imperial prison. He then went to the area near the prison and checked into an inn.

"Senior Brother, what did we come to Bianjing for?" Yu Yu asked Lin Ye as she ate in the inn.

"You followed me all the way here without even knowing what we came to do?" Lin Ye asked with a smile.

"I just treated it as a trip for fun. Isn't taking care of business your job?" Yu Yu asked in return.

"True enough." Lin Ye continued, "I came to take a disciple. Five disciples are still too few, so I came to take a sixth."

"Take a disciple? You came all this way to take a disciple?"

Yu Yu was dumbfounded, but she paid it no further mind. She had only come to see Bianjing for herself anyway.

Afterward, Lin Ye took Yu Yu sightseeing around the city. They bought some things and put them all in Yu Yu's storage ring, and they also ate quite a bit. She had a wonderful time.

Night fell.

Yu Yu enjoyed Bianjing's nighttime scenery for a while and stayed out having fun until late before returning to the inn to sleep.

"Time to act."

Lin Ye opened the system shop and bought a talisman—the Heavenly Devil Invisibility Talisman. It could render him completely invisible. Combined with his Devil Shadow Breath-Returning Technique, which could completely conceal his presence, it would allow him to infiltrate the depths of the imperial prison.

The Heavenly Devil Invisibility Talisman was extremely valuable, costing 800 Devil Dao Points apiece, and it could only be used once. It was comparable in value to an earth-grade Law Treasure, making the cost enormous, but its effect was genuinely excellent. Not even a Great Grandmaster could see through it. Only someone beyond the Great Grandmaster level, aided by certain Secret Methods, could see through its effect.

Did the Chu Kingdom have anyone beyond the Great Grandmaster level? Perhaps it did, and perhaps that person also happened to know a Secret Method for seeing through this kind of talisman and happened to be in the imperial prison, but the possibility was practically nonexistent.

Night.

The window of Lin Ye's room was open, but there was no longer any sign of him inside.

The imperial prison.

Lin Ye arrived and slipped inside without a sound. He passed one patrolling jailer after another and, before he knew it, reached the depths of the prison.

He searched for a while before the system notification finally sounded.

"Ding! Devil Dao disciple suitable for the Supreme Devil Dao System detected..."

Guided by the notification, he found the person's location.

"He really is being held deep inside. And on this last stretch alone, there are actually two Grandmasters and ten Innate Realm martial artists stationed on guard." Lin Ye was puzzled. Just what was the identity of the disciple he was here to take?

Deep inside.

A youth was being held in a cell, but he was not being mistreated. On the contrary, he was supplied with good food and drink, and an old eunuch sat beside him.

"Eunuch Li, how much longer are you going to keep me locked up?" the youth asked.

Eunuch Li smiled. "That depends on his majesty's wishes."

The youth was furious. He knew he had been brought here because of his physique.

Suddenly.

Eunuch Li seemed to sense that something was amiss, but he looked around and found nothing.

What sharp senses.

Lin Ye realized that he had only glanced at the old eunuch, yet the man had sensed him. This man was definitely no Grandmaster, but a Great Grandmaster.

It would not be easy to take the youth away from here. The Heavenly Devil Invisibility Talisman alone was useless. If the youth vanished for even a single breath, the old eunuch's Innate True Qi would surely fill the area and reveal Lin Ye's whereabouts. He had no way to escape with the youth.

That left only one option-

"Buy something else."

He opened the system shop and found another talisman—the Teleportation Talisman.

This talisman could teleport him and another person 1,000 meters. It was not a great distance, but it was just enough to get them out of the imperial prison.

The Teleportation Talisman cost 600 Devil Dao Points. After buying it, he would have very few Devil Dao Points left. Fortunately, he should reap a great reward after taking the youth as his disciple, so he definitely would not come out behind.

After buying it, he went up to the youth and sent his mental power into the youth's mind. Kid, I'll take you out of here. Don't make a sound, and don't resist.

The youth shuddered all over but said nothing. He felt a hand grab him.

"Teleport!"

Lin Ye crushed the Teleportation Talisman and instantly teleported away with the youth, arriving outside the imperial prison. The Heavenly Devil Invisibility Talisman's effect covered the youth as well, and Lin Ye quickly fled with him.

Deep inside the imperial prison.

The old eunuch discovered that the youth was gone. The immense Innate True Qi within him enveloped the surroundings. "Nothing. It was a spatial treasure. Damn it, someone just broke in. They had something to turn invisible and a spatial treasure too. A four-star sect definitely couldn't have made preparations like these. Could it be some five-star sect from outside the Chu Kingdom?"

He quickly searched the area but could find no trace of the enemy. He then hurried to the imperial palace to report to his majesty.

The inn.

Lin Ye returned with the youth, and the Heavenly Devil Invisibility Talisman's duration was almost up.

"You are..." The youth looked in puzzlement at the young man before him, who seemed to be only a little older than he was. But someone who could rescue him from that Great Grandmaster should be very powerful.

"Your future master. Are you interested in taking me as your master?"

"What if I don't?"

"Oh, then I'll send you back."

The youth hurriedly dropped to his knees and bowed. "Master, please accept your disciple's bow."

"Good!"

Lin Ye was very pleased, and the system notification sounded.

"Ding! Congratulations, Host, on successfully taking a disciple. Reward: 5,000 Devil Dao Points."

"Ding! Congratulations, Host, on obtaining one chance at a lottery draw."

Two rewards. He had made a huge profit this time!
