The female corpse in front of him, which looked about 80% like a zombie, was, in Yi Shuihan's perception, an amalgamation of several lives. The one that made the sound was one of them, and the one he was currently seeing was another.

"You must be the source!"

Yi Shuihan sensed an aura from the female corpse that was the same as that of the wild beasts he had encountered before, but much stronger. Those wild beasts were at most defective products that had been tainted by some of the female corpse's aura.

Even a defective product possesses near-King-level strength, so how strong is this original body? In any case, even Yi Shuihan felt some threat, meaning the other party had the ability to harm him. Even without defense, Yi Shuihan was immune to attacks below Silver level, which means this female corpse had already reached the Silver level.

"Leave here, or die."

The laughter stopped, and a resentful voice emanated from the woman's body, sending chills down one's spine.

"He brought it on himself. If the punishment of being banished to the cold palace had been abolished, none of this would have happened."

The origin of the female corpse is not hard to guess. It must be because the woman who died in the cold palace was too miserable and full of resentment, and over time a strange thing was born.

For something of this intensity to be born, one can only imagine how many lives filled with despair must have been buried here; just thinking about it is terrifying.

"As a top power in this world, they should be aware of the consequences of doing this, unless this kind of thing is also being born for the first time because of the invasion of evil!"

In some worlds, ghosts are not allowed to exist, which is why people there don't take them seriously.

Of course, all of this is just Yi Shuihan's speculation, and the true situation cannot be confirmed yet.

Leaving was out of the question. No matter what, they couldn't just leave the other side unattended. But Yi Shuihan had reservations about killing them, mainly because he was afraid that killing one would only result in another, even more difficult one, emerging.

"Then, there is only one choice left."

"You'd better stay here and don't go anywhere else."

Yi Shuihan quickly formed several complex hand seals, binding the female corpse in place, and kicked her into the well.

He waved his hand at the ground a few times, and a round stone several meters thick was separated and moved to the well opening, blocking it.

"Let's seal it in the well. Hmm, we can't be too extreme. Let's seal it for 28 days, so that it can break free one day, in order to avoid causing too much trouble."

He quickly began to inscribe the sealing formation. This time, Yi Shuihan was really serious and put in much more effort than with the defensive formation in the imperial palace.

It took Yi Shuihan several tens of minutes to finally finish carving.

This formation is so strong that even a Silver 3-star would need considerable effort to break it. Considering that my teammates are only Silver 2-star, the God won't go too far and the enemies he's assigned won't be too strong, which is enough to handle the current situation.

"Just in case, it's good to set up a warning array outside. If it breaks free beforehand, I won't be caught unprepared."

Chapter 1145, Digimon in the Master Ball

That night, Yi Shuihan remained in the palace. Even though the problem had been resolved, he was still cautious. The methods of the main god were not so simple. If things went as he expected, that would be good. If not, he would have to find another way.

"How did you come?"

"Aren't we on the same team? It's normal for us to be together!"

"Don't say things that could be misunderstood."

"what!?"

Willett looked at Yi Shuihan with a puzzled expression, not understanding what Yi Shuihan meant.

"Alright, you're here, but could you please go and rest in another room?"

"Why? Wouldn't it be easier to react faster if something happens if we stay in one room?"

"To put it bluntly, I don't like sleeping in the same room as a man."

“…”

Willett left Yi Shuihan's room, looking quite embarrassed as he left.

A night of silence,

No accident occurred. Yi Shuihan and Willit stayed in the palace for the next few days. Willit wandered around the palace aimlessly, and it was unclear what he was doing. Yi Shuihan did only one thing: help the Eighth Prince's arm recover.

A limb-regenerating pill solved the Eighth Prince's disability problem, making him a healthy person again. As a result, the Eighth Prince became unusually close to Yi Shuihan, following him around every day like a little shadow.

Mara IX did not stop this; on the contrary, he was happy to see it happen and repeatedly hinted, both openly and secretly, that Yi Shuihan should take the Eighth Prince as his disciple.

It was another sunny day. As usual, Yi Shuihan came to the Imperial Garden of the palace to admire the flowers and take a nap. Before he could even get into the mood, a guard rushed over to tell him that something terrible had happened.

The atmosphere in the study was quite serious.

"So, Tianjian and the others are trapped, and we need to go and reinforce them?"

"Indeed, the three national guardian masters, Tianjian, Dijian, and Haorenjian, are trapped in Hurricane City. I urge the two masters to set off immediately and rescue them. If necessary, the army can be deployed."

King Mala IX appeared very nervous. He was worried that without Tianjian and the others, the empire's strength would be greatly reduced, and then enemy countries would take advantage of the situation.

Yi Shuihan and Willit exchanged a glance, both feeling that things were getting complicated. Unlike Mara IX, they knew that there was most likely something wrong with the information, because they had an agreement with Tianjian that they would only be allowed to go if they found information related to the mission, and they would not pass the message through Mara IX's people.

Clearly, in this situation, the Three Musketeers haven't found evil; instead, they've been trapped by something else. It's even possible that this information was deliberately leaked to lure the snake out.

"Your Majesty, we will handle this matter."

"Then I'll leave it to the two masters."

......

"What should we do? Should we go? If we go, someone might take advantage of our vulnerability. But if we don't go, it won't be right, and it will arouse the suspicion of King Mala IX."

"William asked."

"So what?"

"Eh?"

"So what if it aroused suspicion? Do we need to care about his thoughts? Let him be suspicious if he's suspicious. What can he do to us? As reincarnators, we only need to complete the tasks assigned by the main god. Anyway, once the month is up, we can return to the main god's space."

After Yi Shuihan said this, Willett was stunned for a moment, then laughed.

"Yes! I completely forgot about that. We don't need to care what others think. We are lawless reincarnators!"

It seemed that Willett was reminded by Yi Shuihan and agreed with Yi Shuihan's words. However, Yi Shuihan could sense that Willett's emotions did not change at all from beginning to end. In other words, Willett did not reveal his true thoughts at all.

"You've hidden it well! But I don't mind playing along."

The two then discussed how to handle the matter and ultimately decided to go out on the surface, but secretly stay in the palace. If they were not discovered, that would be best; if they were discovered, they would just show themselves openly.

Their base of operations in the palace was the Lonely Fragrance Hall, the place where Yi Shuihan sealed the female corpse.

You'd better not touch there!

Despite the harsh environment of the Lonely Palace, Willett showed no discomfort whatsoever, as if he were already used to it, fully demonstrating the qualities a reincarnator should possess, being able to easily adapt to various environments.

"A seal? You made this?"

When Wilid touched the well, sealing runes appeared on its surface.

"Indeed, the one sealed inside is the source of the riots that day, and perhaps also the target of this mission."

Yi Shuihan did not believe that Welit would be unaware of what was happening here, because Yi Shuihan had discovered that someone had triggered the warning array here, and that person was Welit.

"Why didn't you tell me before?"

"You didn't ask."

Willett, who had been displaying anger, was stunned and speechless at Yi Shuihan's answer. His anger earlier was actually an act, since he already knew about what was going on here. His subsequent stunned expression, however, was genuine.

"somebody is coming!"

Footsteps suddenly sounded, and then King Mala IX arrived at the Lonely Fragrance Palace with a large group of people, appearing before Yi Shuihan and the others.

“Master Taiyi, Master Weilite, I really didn’t expect that you two would actually pledge allegiance to the Holy Empire. Why? The Empire has treated you very well! Why did you betray us?”

Mara glared angrily at Yi Shuihan and Willit.

"Forehead!"

Yi Shuihan and Wei Lit were both speechless, having no idea what this was all about. It was completely inexplicable.

"How to do?"

Wellett looked at Yi Shuihan.

"Knock out Mara IX, and you can deal with the rest."

"I'll listen to you, come out! My darling."

To Yi Shuihan's astonishment, Willett took out something he was quite familiar with and threw it out.

"Master Ball? But why is it a Digimon instead of a Pokémon?!"

Feeling utterly helpless, Yi Shuihan found the scene before him extremely discordant.

"BlackWarGreymon, kill everyone except this old man."

"Roar!"

At that moment, DarkWarGreymon charged out, its body blurring as it weaved through the crowd. In just a few breaths, a large number of corpses lay scattered about.

Faced with BlackWarGreymon, the people brought by Mara IX were completely powerless to resist and could only be slaughtered at its mercy.

Chapter 1146, Brightness

Mara IX was dumbfounded. He stared blankly at BlackWarGreymon. The anger in his heart had long since disappeared, and now all that remained was fear.

Mara IX knew how difficult it was to deal with the Protector of the Nation and had always respected him greatly. However, he had never truly faced the Protector of the Nation before. In particular, Yi Shuihan and his group were a level above ordinary Protectors of the Nation, which is why the elite troops he brought could not play any role.

In fact, Mara IX was not facing Willit, but an ordinary protector of the state. With the men he brought, he could at least barely protect himself.

"This Dark WarGreymon's strength surpasses that of an ordinary Silver-level Digimon. Speaking of which, Silver-level Digimon are at the level of gods. When did Digimon become so powerful? Or is the Digital World actually a higher-level world?"

Having witnessed BlackWarGreymon's battle, Yi Shuihan had roughly estimated BlackWarGreymon's combat power, and at the same time, he was wondering what kind of Pokémon the other one that Powerto had mentioned was.

And maybe it's not just two pets?

"Come back, Dark War Tyrannosaurus."

With a loud shout, Dark WarGreymon re-entered the Master Ball and was caught by Powert.

“If we detain him, the Mala Empire will be thrown into chaos. Otherwise, I’ll keep him under control for now.”

"William said."

"Control! Are you sure others won't see through it?"

Yi Shuihan thought of the guard with the blank look in his eyes.

"No, I have special control techniques."

"Then let's give it a try, but," Yi Shuihan said, a sword suddenly appearing in his hand. He pointed it in a direction, raised it high, and then casually swung it down. "Let's take care of the rest first!"

A sword mark stretched from Yi Shuihan's location for hundreds of meters, causing the several-meter-high wall to collapse and reveal the scene outside.

"Tick, tick."

Red blood dripped onto the ground. A shirtless man had a sword wound on his body, from which blood continued to flow.

"So there were still some who slipped through the net."

Willett looked at the man injured by Yi Shuihan with surprise, feeling somewhat unsettled, because he hadn't noticed this man before. It wasn't that the man was stronger than him, but rather that this man's hidden skills were very impressive.

He's better at perception than I am, and this attack method...

Seeing that Willett was just watching and had no intention of helping, Yi Shuihan had no choice but to take matters into his own hands and slowly walked towards the enemy.

"Save me! Master Xia Yu, you must save me!"

Mara IX shouted loudly and ran towards the shirtless man, completely unaware that the other party couldn't save him at all. He had been bleeding from Yi Shuihan's casual slash. Anyone could easily tell that the two sides were not even on the same level!

"Xia Yu? That name sounds familiar! Right, isn't he one of the five guardian masters that the Mala Empire went to confront? What's going on with him here? Something's strange."

Recalling what had happened before, Yi Shuihan easily sensed the smell of a conspiracy.

In order to find out the specifics of the conspiracy, Yi Shuihan abandoned his plan to kill the other party directly and decided to capture them alive and then interrogate them.

Xia Yu already knew the gap between himself and Yi Shuihan, so he completely ignored Mala Jiushi's plea for help. When he saw Yi Shuihan coming over, he immediately turned around and ran away.

This National Protector Master is quite strong. At least in terms of speed, he is close to the level of a Silver One-Star, and he also has the ability to fly. He can fly hundreds of meters in a single breath.

Unfortunately, Xia Yu encountered Yi Shuihan. Upon seeing Xia Yu flee, Yi Shuihan threw his sword away and then performed a flying sword technique. Under Yi Shuihan's control, the flying sword transformed into a streak of light, instantly piercing through the departing figure, and Xia Yu fell straight down from the sky.

"Come back to me!"

With a flick of his wrist, the flying sword returned and charged at Xia Yu once more. However, this time it didn't pierce through him; instead, it strung together Xia Yu and flew him to Yi Shuihan's side.

Two huge openings offer views of the scenery on the other side.

Despite suffering such a severe blow, Xia Yu did not die, only suffered serious injuries, and he even had the ability to move.

"Spare me! I am a citizen of the Holy Empire. If you kill me, the Holy Empire will immediately attack the Mala Empire, and the Mala Empire will be destroyed. If you spare me, I can act as an intermediary and let you join the Holy Empire."
