Chapter 1093: Chapter 791: Get Some Rest

Shen Tang curved her lips in a light smile, "If the Big Boss of Sky City wants to ransom his precious daughter, naturally he has to pay a price."

In her letter, she also specified that during Wu Wei’s "free recuperation" time with her, this Big Boss has to send troops to help them search for several places, which are naturally mentioned in the Blood Clan’s ballads.

If this cooperation partner does not make good use of their resources, it would be too wasteful!

She had discussed it with Shen Li as well.

"The branches of Moonlit White Bones" probably refer to a certain type of tree, whose surface might be covered with a layer of white frost under moonlight, looking like human skeletons from a distance.

As for "sand boat," Shen Tang hasn’t figured out what it is. Could it be a lone boat in the desert?

How could a boat appear in the desert unless it was once an ocean?

But environmental changes take tens of thousands of years, and the Blood Clan left their ancestral land only thousands of years ago.

If there were drastic environmental changes in a short period, history books would surely have records, but unfortunately, they haven’t found any related documentation.

This clue will have to be set aside for now.

The most important is the desert stele mentioned in the ballad, engraved with eyes, and a type of white "Jasmine" blooming around it.

This is the most clear and critical clue at present.

Shen Tang didn’t explain the purpose of searching for these things, just asked the other party to send people to search.

On the other side, Mo Yan, ever since leaving the Divine Hall, hasn’t had a good night’s sleep in days.

It’s as though communication was cut off from Shen Tang’s side; no matter what methods he used, he couldn’t get in touch, nor did he know what’s going on inside the Divine Hall... he even suspects whether that girl and her Beast Husband teamed up to play him!

Just as he was burning with impatience, news suddenly arrived from outside saying someone came to see him, sent by a Miss Shen.

Upon hearing this, Mo Yan paid no heed to anything else and hurriedly went over.

However, upon arrival, he didn’t see Shen Tang or her Beast Husband but was instead faced with a stranger, a young Deer Clan member he’d never met.

The Deer Clan youth exchanged pleasantries with him briefly, wasted no time, handed over a letter and a Memory Stone, saying he would understand everything after reading the letter.

Skeptically, Mo Yan read the letter, immediately flaring up with anger, his beard twitching so much he almost fainted: That cunning little girl actually took his daughter hostage to negotiate conditions!!!

If he didn’t have to maintain the Big Boss’s dignity, he might have cursed out loud then and there.

Having lived for almost fifty years, calculated countless people, he never expected to be outplayed by a little girl!

However, after seeing the content on the Memory Stone, his expression grew grave.

It turns out, it was the Divine Hall’s doing; he truly wronged Shen Tang and Xiao!

Looking further, Wei’er has been rescued and is still alive!

The burdens Mo Yan carried could finally be eased a bit.

That Shen Tang held onto Wu Wei, besides using her as a hostage, wasn’t entirely a bad thing for Mo Yan.

Given that he’s currently still officially in partnership with the Divine Hall, with many troops stationed in the city sent by them, it’s possible spies have already infiltrated the palace.

If Wu Wei suddenly returns, secrecy could hardly be maintained, and the Divine Hall would surely grow suspicious, potentially bringing disaster to father and daughter.

In this light, it might be better to let Wu Wei stay with Shen Tang for now and retrieve her when the time is right.

That tenacious girl actually considered things rather thoroughly.

After all, both parties were holding onto leverage against each other; no need to fear betrayal.

Mo Yan therefore ceased to dwell on the matter; looking again at Shen Tang’s conditions, "Moonlit White Bones" and "stele," what on earth are these things? He truly has no clue, how is he supposed to search for them?

But with his daughter in their hands, what else can Mo Yan do? He can only grit his teeth and comply.

Thus, Mo Yan specially dispatched a squad of his trained Personal Guards to go out in the name of executing a special task.

These Personal Guards were selected through layers of tests over many years, loyal only to him, ensuring no spies from the Divine Hall could infiltrate.

Mo Yan also helped Sang Tian hide his identity, arranged accommodations, letting him stay in the city with peace of mind.

On the other hand, Shen Tang and Shen Li never stopped searching either.

According to the ballad, the Blood Clan’s ancestral land is most likely in the desert.

On Eris Star, there are many desert regions, and they plan to start searching at the nearest one.

"This so-called ’blood-colored eyes,’ likely refers to the Blood Moon." Shen Li pointed at the text, guessing.

"Blood Moon? What is that?" Shen Tang asked curiously.

"Xiao Tang’er, you’ve been here for a short time, haven’t seen the Blood Moon yet. I read about the Blood Moon in the Divine Fox Clan’s history books," Shen Li explained, "It’s a special astronomical spectacle that occurs during a full moon phase and the moon turns blood-red."

"It’s said the Blood Moon appears once every five years, we’re in luck, three months from now, there’ll be a Blood Moon appearing."

Though finding the Blood Clan’s ancestral land might take considerable time, at least they have some clues now, three months isn’t too tight.

Shen Tang nodded, "The system map shows there’s a Helaer Desert a thousand miles away, we can start searching there... Oh, Ah Jin and Ah Xiao are whereabouts unknown, let’s find a place to meet up with them first."

"Alright, I’ll resend the location to them, and tonight we’ll rest, you’ve been tired lately, need to get some good rest." Shen Li said, gentle and considerate.

Shen Tang was indeed thinking so.

She was well taken care of by Shu, but the Beast Husbands have been traveling and fighting hard all this time, much more exhausted than her, they indeed need a good break.
