Gu Xiaonan, although not fully understanding why they were imprisoned here, detested Qitian Yu, so he naturally wanted to oppose him.

Knowing that he was also captured, Zhou Qingyu frowned worriedly and said, “Little one, you should leave quickly. You can’t save us, and mustn’t let Qitian Yu’s men discover you.”

“Little guy, if you manage to escape, find someone to rescue us!” Hong Yao quickly added.

Gu Xiaonan responded, “I’m not called ‘little guy’, I’m Gu Xiaonan. I can save you.”

Everyone thought he was too naive.

How could he, such a little kid, save all of them?

Gu Xiaonan approached the cage where Hong Yao was held.

A large lock secured the iron cage.

I long Yao said, “It can’t be opened without a key.”

“Where’s the key?” Gu Xiaonan asked.

“It’s with Qitian Yu, and he usually keeps it on him.”

“I’ll go get it for you!”

Gu Xiaonan realized he couldn’t break the lock, so he said.

“Don’t worry about us. If you have the ability, quickly escape from the Fifth Prince’s mansion!” Zhou Qingyu urged.

Gu Xiaonan looked at them with determination. “I will rescue you from here!”

“It’s useless. We’ve been poisoned. Even if we leave, we’ll still be under Qitian Yu’s control.” Zhou Qingyu informed him.

“Poison?” Gu Xiaonan took out a bottle from his space.

“This is an antidote pill. Try taking it.”

Gu Xiaonan distributed an antidote pill to each of the women. Some of the women appeared relatively normal, while others leaned against the cage motionless, with vacant gazes, like living dead.

Seeing those women who had lost their will to live, Gu Xiaonan felt very uncomfortable. “Sister in white, what’s wrong with these other sisters?”

There were a total of twenty-eight women in the secret room, and five of them looked like lifeless corpses.

A trace of sadness flickered in Zhou Qingyu’s eyes. “All of them have been subjected to Qitian Yu’s persecution, enduring unimaginable torment that has broken their minds and bodies, causing them to lose the desire to live, leading to their current condition.”

“Why would the ugly Prince harm you all?”

“To advance his cultivation!” Hong Yao sneered lightly, a hint of hatred flashing in her eyes. “Little guy, when you get out, remind your mother not to fall into Qitian Yu’s hands. This man is cunning and sly. Despite his appearance of elegance and charm, he has harmed countless young women.”

These women, some were forcibly abducted by Qitian Yu’s minions, while others were lured by Qitian Yu’s disguises.

No matter the method, they all ended up with the same fate — becoming Qitian Yu’s tools.

In order to advance his cultivation, Qitian Yu practiced a sinister art that exploited women for dual cultivation.

Normal dual cultivation should benefit both parties, with the weaker one gaining greater advantages.

However, this forbidden technique was a genuine method of harnessing the yin and strengthening the yang aspects.

They were chosen by Qitian Yu not only for their beauty but also due to their exceptional talents. They were either geniuses from prestigious families or ordinary women with bodies suited for cultivation.

Qitian Yu kept them confined in this lightless secret room, feeding them high-quality medicine daily and selecting two of them regularly for dual cultivation.

Aside from draining their arcane power, he also subjected them to cruel and violent methods.

Consequently, they each carried different extents of injuries.

Those who came early had more injuries;

Those who came later had fewer;

Before them, countless women had suffered and perished tragically.

Hong Yao and Zhou Qingyu had only been here for a short time, so they were in better condition.

If they stayed for a longer period, perhaps they would become just like those girls with almost no vitality left, longing for death.

It was infuriating that Qitian Yu was so ruthless. Even if they wanted to end their lives, they couldn’t.

He had inflicted several types of poison on them, one of which left them completely powerless, unable to even walk.

Moreover, they were imprisoned in iron cages like beasts, stripped of all sharp objects.

In such circumstances, suicide became a luxury.

“Don’t worry, my mother is formidable! The ugly Prince is no match for my mother!” Gu Xiaonan raised his chubby chin proudly..
