Without Inner Strength, unable to call for help, and imprisoned by a great beauty, what a bizarre situation Ye Shikai was in. It could be said that he was in a predicament where his cries for help were ignored by both heaven and earth. The place was clearly fully sealed; there was absolutely no possibility of escaping. As such, he could only wait like a prisoner, confined in this place.
Dugu Tianke probably knew all this, but why would he also help that woman demon? Could it be that they were villains? Ye Shikai pondered for a moment—it didn't seem so. Although the old saying goes, "You can't judge a book by its cover," Ye Shikai felt that Dugu Tianke was definitely not a bad person. Moreover, a highly skilled person like him, if he truly intended to harm Ye Shikai, why would he need to go to such great lengths?
