Holy Water City, the sixth holy city of the Spiritual Race’s mother planet, the Sacred Spiritual Planet.

Holy Water City was the main gathering place of the Shui Clan of the Spiritual Race on the Sacred Spiritual Planet. Of course, the top people of the Shui Clan would not usually live in Holy Water City.

A portion of the elites of the Shui Clan, as well as the juniors and old people, lived here. This place looked a little like the hometown of the Shui Clan.

For example, Shui Zhi, the 14th main elder of the Spiritual Race, had spent most of his time in the Sacred Spiritual City where the Sanctuary was. Only a portion of his family and clansmen would live in Holy Water City.

However, in reality, for many large clans of the Spiritual Race, their true hometown was often a planet that had been managed for several generations. The foundation of the Shui Clan was actually a few planets in the Northern Star Sector.

Under normal circumstances, that was the true hometown of the Shui Clan. The truly important clansmen of the bloodline would usually stay there. He was like a local emperor in his home on the planet.

For example, Shui Zhi’s wife and the others were all staying in their hometown on the planet.

However, for some reason, after Shui Zhi died in battle in the solar system half a year ago, all of Shui Zhi’s direct blood relatives and bloodlines within three generations were moved into the Shui Mansion in the Sixth Great Holy City of the Sacred Spiritual Planet.

There was a mansion of Shui Zhi here. Previously, it was also the kind that had its threshold broken. However, after Shui Zhi died in the solar system, the gate immediately became very cold. Shui Zhi’s family, who had moved over for some reason, also lived in seclusion.

Other than the servants and guards who were buying normal living supplies, no one had gone out for the past few months. Occasionally, a relative would want to visit them, but they would be rejected for various reasons. At first, it seemed very mysterious. Now, everyone around them was already used to it.

The relatives of the Bing, Han, Wen, and Xue families had not interacted much with them recently. It made this Shui Mansion even more mysterious.

There was a unique maid coffee shop on the main street 1,500 meters away from the mansion.

Bing Jie, who was wearing a very common light blue collared jacket, was lying on a recliner. His eyes were half-closed. There was a cup of bitter coffee without sugar on the low table at the side. On his left and right, two hot maids were kneeling on the ground and massaging his legs. He looked like he was enjoying himself.

However, if Yan Lie and Cui Xi, who were extremely familiar with Xu Tui, appeared here, they would realize that Bing Jie in front of them looked a little similar to Xu Tui. If one took a closer look, they would definitely be able to recognize the person in front of them as Xu Tui, the regiment commander who had not returned.

By Xu Tui’s side, the two maids in hot clothes were massaging his legs while pouting. They looked a little aggrieved. This young and rich guest had chosen the sisters for five consecutive days. Every time he came, he would only let them massage his legs and did not do anything else. There was a large bed at the back of the quiet room. They wanted to have some thoughts, but this guest’s instructions made them unable to have any other thoughts.

Xu Tui, who seemed to be enjoying himself with his eyes closed, was actually activating his mind power and carefully investigating the Shui Mansion and its surroundings. He did not dare to use too much mind power. He could only activate a few Origin Crystal dust and continuously explore the surroundings of it.

The five targets that needed to be rescued had been found.

When Shui Zhi negotiated with Xu Tui back then, he raised this most important condition. He wanted to save his family.

The first was his wife, Bing Yulan. The second and third were his grandsons, Shui Luo and Shui Su. The man was 17, and the woman was 13. His grandson, Shui Luo, was only an Evolution Realm cultivator. His granddaughter, Shui Su, was at the Mutation Realm.

Moreover, this Mutation Realm was born with a bloodline.

The fourth and fifth people were Shui Zhi’s son and daughter-in-law, Shui Ling and Xue Ying. His son, Shui Ling, was at the Eight Satellites Planetary realm, and his daughter-in-law, Xue Ying, was at the Seven Satellites Planetary realm.

Shui Zhi’s condition was to ask Xu Tui to bring his family back to the solar system.

Of course, Shui Zhi actually had many blood relatives. However, according to Shui Zhi, many of his descendants were close to him not because he was a grandfather, but because he was the 14th main elder.

Only these few people treated him as their grandfather and were the closest to him. However, Xu Tui was not stupid enough to agree immediately. He could only bring as many of his blood relatives back to the solar system as possible.

After all, this was the Sacred Spiritual Planet. If it were any other planet, Xu Tui would have secretly created an intergalactic quantum teleportation channel to save them. But not on the Sacred Spiritual Planet.

It was said that there was a spiritual treasure suppressing the Sacred Spiritual Planet. Without obtaining the token of the Sanctuary, no quantum teleportation channel could be successfully built on the Sacred Spiritual Planet.

This made it extremely difficult for Xu Tui to save people. He had to bring them away from the Sacred Spiritual Planet first, then find a safe planet to build a quantum teleportation channel and return to the solar system.

This was the reason why Xu Tui stayed behind alone and did not follow the main group back to the solar system. He wanted to save Shui Zhi’s blood relatives.

Xu Tui was not stupid. When he was negotiating with Shui Zhi back then, Shui Zhi had asked Xu Tui to use his mental body to activate the main planet of mind power and agreed to this cooperation request.

This was not the Heavenly Dao Oath in the Blue Star web novels. Even if Xu Tui could not save Shui Zhi’s blood relatives in the end, he would not lose anything. However, according to Shang Long, sticking to his heart was the most important. Just like his heart of the Sword Dao, he would rather break than bend.

This was especially so for things that had been promised by the mental body and the main planet’s force field. It might affect his breakthrough in the future. After all, the breakthrough after the Nine Satellites had begun to become mysterious. Therefore, Xu Tui did not leave this time. He stayed behind to save Shui Zhi’s blood relatives.

Of course, that was not the only reason.

Xu Tui’s actions had the meaning of buying a carcass with a thousand taels of silver.

This year, more and more alien species were captured by the Blue Star. However, many captives, including a portion of the Eight Satellites and Nine Satellites, could only be killed and refined into Soul Crystals.

He felt that it was a little wasteful.

Recently, with the increase in the Nine Satellites Planetary realm of the Blue Star, Xu Tui had made some progress in the research of controlling the mental body of the Nine Satellites. If there were no safety risks in the future, he might be able to organize an elite alien-type army with very few people to fight for the Blue Star.

Shui Zhi was a good example. The reason why Xu Huacheng surrendered so quickly this time was because of Shui Zhi.

That was the second reason.

Thirdly, if there was an alien captive team, who would be the best to command?

The answer was Shui Zhi.

Why Shui Zhi?

Looking at the history of the solar system, the leader of the captives with special rights had always been the one who treated the captives the most ruthlessly and managed them the strictest.

This was determined by human nature.

If Xu Tui wanted Shui Zhi to do this, he had to ensure his loyalty. He had to bring Shui Zhi’s family back to the solar system. Moreover, Shui Zhi was also a powerful Nine Satellites. If he completely calmed down, Shui Zhi, who had the combat strength of the Nine Satellites, would be useful to the Blue Star. At that time, there would be nine Nine Satellites available on the Blue Star.

Therefore, no matter what, Xu Tui had to try to save Shui Zhi’s family. However, he had also told Shui Zhi in advance that he could not guarantee that he would bring all five of them back. Therefore, Shui Zhi had also prioritized them.

At the very least, Shui Zhi hoped to bring his wife and a pair of children and grandchildren back. It was a good thing that Shui Zhi had such a goal. This meant that he had something to worry about.

Xu Tui had thought that it would be easier to save Shui Zhi’s five relatives. After he stayed behind and searched for information, he realized that Shui Zhi’s five relatives had already been brought to the Sacred Spiritual Planet.

On the surface, it looked like they were living in seclusion. Now, it seemed that they were actually being secretly detained. Over the past five days, Xu Tui had been constantly scouting. He then took the opportunity to hypnotize some of the guards and confirmed this.

Shui Zhi’s five relatives were indeed secretly detained. In other words, the Spiritual Race might already know that Shui Zhi had surrendered or even not died. In that case, the Spiritual Race was actually fishing by imprisoning all of Shui Zhi’s direct descendants here.

Were they fishing for Xu Tui?
