"No problem. I can sense they have a good relationship with each other." Yealper paused before continuing, "And among them, there's a Ten-Star Emperor whose vitality is weakening. Perhaps we can advance our plans."
"A Ten-Star Emperor!" The heartbeat quickened, and the voice trembled slightly. "This Celestial Vault organization is truly terrifying; they've even captured a Ten-Star Emperor."
Yealper nodded. "I suspect it's the Sea God. Among the few Emperors in this world, only the Sea God has ever fallen into the hands of the Celestial Vault."
The heartbeat quickened again, then, after a moment of silence, the voice expressed regret: "It should be him, but it's such a pity."
Yealper understood the sentiment and, with some concern, asked, "My lord, how much longer can you hold on? I can sense that, apart from the Emperor-level powerhouse, the others still have great vitality and are not suffering from any loss."
The heartbeat continued, "It's fine. Don't engage with those people just yet to avoid arousing suspicion. Aren't there a few others? They should be enough to sustain my life."
"Understood." Yealper nodded in response, seeing that no further instructions were given. He stood up and withdrew.

In the past few days, John and his group had been doing nothing in Underground City. Yealper would occasionally visit, bringing some supplies and cultivation resources.
However, they held little value.
John had also begun to understand the situation here.
Underground City was vast, home to over a hundred thousand people, all of whom had been captured by the Celestial Vault organization, tortured, abandoned, or had fled here.
Yealper and his group treated these people well, providing daily necessities and some cultivation resources to ensure they could survive.
However, these people were merely hanging on, their strength severely depleted, their vitality fading, and it was nearly impossible to reverse their decline.
What do you think?
