Yang Wei continued to walk around and occasionally hid in a corner.
Although the security inside the Killer Bees' nest wasn't as much as the entrance, there were still multiple Killer Bees flying around.
'Just where did the Killer Bees bring their prisoners to?' Yang Wei wondered silently as he continued to explore around.
Sometime later, Yang Wei halted his movement when he heard multiple people screaming aloud.
"Please, spare our lives. We didn't mean to intrude in your areas."
"We're innocent, we were dragged here forcefully by some fogs."
"Let us leave already!"
Yang Wei could hear the despair in their tone and how they were practically begging to leave.
'People like them are definitely going to die early.' Yang Wei thought.
Afterward, Yang Wei prepared to walk toward the source of the voice since he would gladly rescue them.
Sometime later, Yang Wei saw multiple cages filled with at least 5-10 people in each of them.
"No wonder they're begging for their lives. Their cultivation has been restricted and is no different than mortals." Yang Wei mumbled as he glanced at their haggard expression.
As Yang Wei continued to walk forward, the prisoners in the cage noticed him.
"I-It's a human…"
The prisoners quickly took notice of Yang Wei as they begged Yang Wei to release them.
"Y-Young hero, quickly destroy the cage and bring us out."
"Young hero is magnanimous, thank you for rescuing us."
Yang Wei showed a gentle smile as he raised his hand up.
"Now, please lower your tone since you might attract the Killer Bees' attention." Yang Wei said.
Instantly, the area turned extremely quiet as no one dared to open their mouth any longer.
Yang Wei saw how obedient they were and nodded his head.
However, his expression changed when Yang Wei noticed a couple of people were purposely avoiding eye contact with him.
"You three in the back," Yang Wei suddenly said as he pointed at them.
"Turn around and show your face to me." He ordered.
Alas, the three people remained on their back at Yang Wei, almost like they didn't dare to look at Yang Wei.
Yang Wei grinned evilly when they were not cooperating with him.
"To the people in the cages with them, if they don't show me their faces then I won't rescue you." Yang Wei said.
"Grab those three people!"
It didn't even take another second for the people within the cage to capture the three people that refused to show their faces.
"Y-Young Hero, here are the three people you wanted to see," One of the prisoners said as he dragged them over.
Yang Wei nodded his head.
"Well done, you people deserved to be rescued from here." Yang Wei smiled as he glanced at the three people.
"No wonder you three look so familiar, you were the bootlicking bastard for Elder Chen Xue." Yang Wei laughed.
The three people turned ashen white when they got caught by Yang Wei.
However, they didn't even get a chance to speak when Yang Wei snapped his finger and broke all the cages.
The people quickly walked out of the cage and began bowing down as they thanked Yang Wei for rescuing them.
"Thank you Young Hero for saving our lives!"
Yang Wei shook his head.
"Don't thank me, it is only natural that I save you for humanity." Yang Wei showed a gentle smile as he continued to explain.
"I have a special treasure on my hand that can house all of you so please stay there for a moment." Yang Wei then said.
The people showed a grateful look toward Yang Wei as they bowed once again, with their forehead kissing the floor.
Although there were many grateful looks, Yang Wei managed to detect that some of them held a vicious glint in their eyes.
'Sigh, greed really knows no bounds,' Yang Wei sighed softly.
He was testing some of them to see if they should be kept alive or used as fertilizer for the Lingzhi, and he couldn't help but be disappointed that humans really deserve zero redemption.
With a snap of his finger, Yang Wei secretly communicated with Fan Ping to bring them to the prepared room for these people.
He wasn't a saint nor a hero so killing these people for his own benefits was nothing special.
The people in the area quickly vanished as they entered inside the Pagoda where Fan Ping gladly treated them well.
At the same time, the three people who Yang Wei had recognized remained kneeling on the ground.
Yang Wei then glanced at them as he showed a bright smile.
"You three, tell me where Elder Chen Xue is located?" Yang Wei asked them in a gentle tone.
"W-We don't know where Elder Chen Xue was sent to…"
"We were all dragged here forcefully by the Killer Bees and got our cultivation restricted completely."
"Un, only Fang Xifeng knows where all the prisoners are located."
Yang Wei raised an eyebrow at the last person's words.
'Fang Xifeng? The Killer Bees have a human guarding them?' Yang Wei wondered silently as he glanced at the last person.
"Who is this Fang Xifeng you speak of?" Yang Wei asked with a threatening gaze.
The person shuddered in trembling fear as he quickly opened his mouth to explain.
"Fang Xifeng is the second in command besides the queen of the Killer Bees. Her cultivation had reached an unbelievable level that managed to destroy Elder Chen Xue in one strike."
"Why would she help the Killer Bees out and capture other humans?"
The person gasped as he held a dumbfounded expression at Yang Wei.
"F-Fang Xifeng is a Killer Bee herself that managed to manifest into a human-being…" He said.
Yang Wei twitched his mouth.
"N-No wonder she was helping them out… they are the same species huh." Yang Wei mumbled as he needed to be more cautious of Fang Xifeng.
"C-Can you release our restriction now since we gave you the information?" The person suddenly asked.
Yang Wei nodded his head.
"Sure, you can have your cultivation back in the housing I've prepared for you.." Yang Wei smiled as a gush of wind brushed past the three of them.
