Another person was a female cultivator named Ye Yanlan.
He Yueren fixed his gaze on the two of them, nodded deeply, and said "Good."

Several hours later.
Three figures exuding demonic aura cautiously made their way towards the footbridge leading to the Octagonal Blood Contract Tower.
The deeper they went, the more withered vines clung to the walls around them, and the moat beneath the bridge bubbled "gurgle gurgle," with faint glimpses of strange fish wandering through the water, as well as grotesque ghostly crustaceans lurking in the corners.
These ghostly crustaceans were tamed powerful demon beasts, at least at the Purple Mansion level, used for sniffing and supporting the bridge.
The footbridge was not a straight line but instead an eighteen-curved bone bridge.
The piers were the ghostly crustaceans.
If anything other than a celestial demon were to come here, the ghostly crustaceans would immediately start howling.
