Legend of Beast Souls
Chapter 21: The Caged Bird
"Young Master, Miss Nia is already waiting in the attic." Seeing Ling Yu thinking deeply, the old housekeeper reminded him with a smile.
Ling Yu came back to his senses, nodded, turned to the old village chief and others and said, "Just wait for me here. I will be back soon."
"Okay, you go." The old village chief said excitedly. At this time, Ling Yu was meeting the famous soul control master in Yiyang City. It would be difficult for them to meet him.
Walking up to the attic, the elegant fragrance became stronger and stronger. Stepping onto the bright red carpet, Ling Yu immediately arrived at the door of a separate house under the guidance of the old housekeeper.
"Dear Miss Nia, I have brought the young master." The old housekeeper bowed and said.
A delicate female voice suddenly came from inside the house: "Let him come in, you get out first."
"Okay, Miss Nia." The old housekeeper smiled at Ling Yu, pointed to the door and turned back. Ling Yu paused at the door for a moment, then gently pushed the door open.
In an instant, a beautiful back of a woman appeared in front of her. Her long brown hair was flowing down. Her tight-fitting black leather armor and bright red skirt made her more charming. The most important thing was that this woman had a pair of slender and white legs. She was indeed not an ordinary man.
A body that can resist.
Even Ling Yu couldn't help but secretly admire her. Just seeing her back was so moving. When the woman turned around, she indeed had an alluring appearance. Her dark blue pupils were as pure and fair as clear spring water.
Skin can be broken by blowing.
Ling Yu immediately withdrew his gaze. He believed that if a man with weak concentration saw her, he would have been fascinated by her beauty. She was the only one in the house. She must be the imperial concubine who was famous both inside and outside Yiyang City for her beautiful and fragrant appearance.
Soul Master, Miss Nia.
"Please come in." Nia smiled, and suddenly she felt like a spring breeze was blowing on her face. Her attitude was quite friendly, and Ling Yu was naturally not polite.
Looking around, she looked at the luxurious but still elegant decorations, which were indeed consistent with her status and beauty.
"It's not polite to look at a girl's boudoir like this." Nia put one hand on her hip, shook her finger at Ling Yu, and said with a smile.
Ling Yu smiled awkwardly and apologized to Nia: "Isn't it inappropriate to enter Miss Nia's room like this?"
"You know, you are the first man to enter my room. But hey... don't worry too much about a little kid like you." Nia's face is a little naughty, and that's fine with her beauty.
Even Ling Yu was a little overwhelmed.
It's no wonder that so many people want to see this soul master. Compared with her stunning beauty, her status as a soul master may seem a bit dim.
Ling Yu shrugged and smiled at Nia: "You asked me to come here just to visit your boudoir, right?"
Nia didn't feel any discomfort because of Ling Yu's joke. She just glanced at the ring in Ling Yu's hand: "It is indeed a heaven-level Horcrux." She looked up at Ling Yu and asked: "Just in front of the Soul Control Hall.
I have seen everything, and I am curious about you and the forces behind you? Can you tell me?"
Ling Yu smiled slightly, sat on a wooden chair nearby, and said to Nia: "I disappoint you. I'm just a villager, and I don't have any power behind me."
Naturally, Nia didn't believe it, thinking that Ling Yu didn't believe him, or was hiding it from himself and didn't want to tell him. He was a little anxious at the moment: "You have a heaven-level Horcrux, how can it be possible that there is no force behind it?"
"Indeed, I'm just an ordinary villager. The old man and the four children are all from my village. I came to Yiyang City just to find you to make Horcruxes. This ring has been with me since I can't remember.
How about your hands? Do you really want to drive me out now?"
Nia paused for a while and shook her head: "No, just now Li Guan clearly didn't dare to attack you because he was afraid of the power or family behind you!"
"I just said that to save my life. After all, I am not Li Guan's opponent." Ling Yu pointed at his own clothes and said with a smile, "How can a person with status be like this?"
"Why do you believe me?" Nia asked.
"Because we all hate that city lord, don't we? I don't believe you would run to tell him and then let him kill me!"
After listening to Ling Yu's words, Nia was immediately disappointed. She sat on her bed with a look of helplessness on her face. "I'm sorry, I called you here. You can bring the spirit beast soul element. I will help you make the Horcrux."
Seeing Nia's appearance, Ling Yu was also a little moved. He probably also guessed that Nia might have encountered some kind of difficulties before he wanted to seek help from the forces behind him. Previously, he also thought that Nia was a force.
A woman wants to get closer to herself and cling to some big influence.
But after seeing Nia being polite to him after learning that there was no force behind Ling Yu, and agreeing to help him make Horcruxes, Ling Yu re-examined the woman in front of him.
"You don't seem to be as arrogant as other soul masters." Ling Yu said.
"You don't look like a child either. Although I think you have many secrets, if you don't want to tell me, I won't force you to tell me." Nia raised his head and smiled at Ling Yu, but he still couldn't hide his slightly pale face.
After a long pause, Ling Yu suddenly asked: "You are not the city lord in Yiyang City. Behind you are the Dusi family who are equal to the city lord. Why should you fear him as the city lord?"
"It would be great if this were the case." There was sadness on Nia's face. "I originally thought that with my strength as a soul master, I could be called an honored guest in the Dusi family. But I overestimated my own abilities.
In terms of strength, I am only a first-level soul master, and I can only make some first-level soul masters for the lower levels of the Dusi family and even the guards. The head of the family and some senior family members who want to make soul weapons go out to look for high-level soul masters."
"I realized this when I entered the Dus family. It can be said that not only did I not become a guest of their family, but I was also a tool for them to make money. By making Horcruxes for civilians, I could only get a small part of the gold coins.
, the others were taken away by the Dus family. Although I have a high quality of life and strict protection, I still lost my freedom."
Listening to Nia's story, Ling Yu also learned about Nia's situation. Although the soul master profession is very popular in the Yueshao Empire and even the Beast Soul Continent, Nia is only a first-level soul master.
Nobility can only be compared to civilians like them. At this point, he also understood why Sawyer was a soul master but was so lowly that he blackmailed their village.
"As a soul master, can't you leave? I think that the Dusi family that has left can have a high-quality life based on your status and ability." Ling Yu asked.
"It's not that I don't want to leave, it's that I simply can't leave." At this point, Nia couldn't help but tears welling up in her eyes. "The guards around me who protect me seem to be for my safety, but in fact they are monitoring me.
Every move. The Du Si family can be said to have one hand covering the sky in Yiyang City, and the only one who can compare with them is the city lord who just came last year."
"That is, Li Guan. He is in cahoots with the Dusi family. Moreover, the disgusting Li Guan has coveted me for a long time. The Dusi family not only ignored this matter, but also strongly supported it. It is impossible for me to escape.
"
Nia used the word 'escape', but at this time Nia was already under house arrest by the Dus family like a prisoner. "They won't let you go?"
Nia nodded: "Yes, they are afraid that losing me as a soul master will mean that the Dus family will lose a cash cow. You must know that it only takes me a few hours to make a soul weapon, and it only takes me a few hours to make a soul weapon."
The amount of gold coins withdrawn can be as much as 700,000. In other words, I only need to work for one day to help the Douse family earn millions of gold coins. How could they let me go like this!"
Ling Yu was also dumbfounded by this. What he didn't expect was that the soul master's income was so huge. The gold coins earned from one day's work were enough for their village to spend ten years, no, decades!
"I heard that every soul master has his own teacher. Is it the same for you?"
Nia knew the meaning of Ling Yu's words and said: "Of course I have my own teacher. The teacher is a fourth-grade soul master, but he is far away in the imperial capital. Let alone tell him what happened to me, I just want to meet an outsider.
It's impossible. I am locked up in this attic every day, never leaving. If the city chief hadn't come today, the Douse family wouldn't have been able to remove all the guards around me. Naturally, it would be impossible to see you."
"The Dusi family is so brave, they dare to imprison a soul master." Ling Yu nodded. Thinking that if Nia's teacher knew about it at this time, he would definitely not let the Dusi family go. First-grade
Although a soul master is nothing, the Yueshao Empire is still huge with the weight of a fourth-grade soul master.
Forces like the Dusi family and the Lulangshan bandits would not dare to offend a fourth-grade soul master. Because as long as a fourth-grade soul master says a word, there will be ten or more people like them.
Such forces are willing to come and destroy them.
"What kind of help do you need?" Ling Yu asked. To be honest, he was not sympathizing with Miss Nia's experience, but he hoped to use Nia to meet her teacher, the fourth-level soul master.
Master. Maybe this fourth-grade soul master cannot answer his doubts, and there must be a higher soul master above the fourth-grade soul master.
With a clue, Ling Yu didn't want to give up.
"It's useless, you can't help me!" Nia sighed. "If you are just a villager, you can't help me at all. Because the power of the Dusi family in Yiyang City is beyond your ability to deal with."
Nia looked out the window with a sad face. Being talked about this kind of place all year round is undoubtedly the most painful thing for a beautiful girl.
Ling Yu had this feeling of longing for freedom before. In his previous life, he was controlled by the killer organization he belonged to, and had to stay away from the girl he liked. He was also forced to put away his emotions and disguise himself as cold-blooded. At that time,
He also felt like Nia, longing for freedom and being able to leave this cold iron cage.
Looking at Nia again, Ling Yu felt a trace of sympathy.
