"Eastern Domain Shen family?"
Tu Wenhai chuckled coldly, "How come I've never heard of an ancient aristocratic family named Shen in the Eastern Domain?"
"Young Master, you misunderstand. We are not an ancient aristocratic family!" Shen Beitong quickly explained, his face flushing with embarrassment.
"Since you're not an ancient aristocratic family, you dare to call yourselves the Eastern Domain Shen family?" Tu Wenhai said coldly. "I see you have two Saints guarding you. You must have some background. If I capture you, I should be able to exchange you for quite a few good things!"
"I am the Young Master of the Shen family. You can't capture me!" Shen Beitong cried out. He knew very well that once captured by the Kyushu Eighteen Sects, it would be difficult to get out, and the life inside was not something he could endure.
"You really think highly of yourself!"
Tu Wenhai was merciless. He directly ordered his men to restrain Shen Beitong and prepare to take him to the Kyushu Eighteen Sects. Everyone within the formation barrier would be taken along.
Shen Beitong was bound, his face gloomy. The others were confined within the formation. This formation could be carried around at will, but they couldn't break through it, otherwise, they could have escaped.
"Young Master, this is going to be troublesome!"
A white-haired old man spoke, "Being captured by the Kyushu Eighteen Sects requires many Saint Artifacts for ransom. Moreover, they kill without batting an eye. One slight mistake, and you could perish."
"Quickly think of a way! How can I get out of here alive?"
Shen Beitong said urgently, his eyes filled with panic. He never expected things to turn out this way, nor was this what he had intended.
After all, as the eldest young master of the Shen family, he had never been threatened like this. He had also heard of the power of the Kyushu Eighteen Sects. They were a group of bandits who had formed an alliance called the Kyushu Eighteen Sects. Their combined strength was such that even Holy Lands dared not provoke them rashly, which showed how deep their roots were.
This was also why the Kyushu Eighteen Sects dared to capture Saints. Within the Kyushu Eighteen Sects, there were numerous powerful experts guarding them, and Saints were countless. They specialized in plundering valuable items, not even sparing Holy Lands. Therefore, everyone felt a sense of dread upon hearing the name Kyushu Eighteen Sects.
"I never expected you to end up like this!" Nu Fan said with a faint smile. "You seem quite pathetic."
"What's there to be happy about? Aren't you captured too?" Shen Beitong said coldly. "At least I have the Shen family to ransom me. You might not. It's highly likely you'll die in the Kyushu Eighteen Sects."
Lu Fan ignored him and didn't take it seriously. Although these bandits were ferocious, Lu Fan could see that they were not people who committed heinous acts. They were likely so skilled at this because they had been doing it for a long time.
"I still have an eighty-year-old mother at home. If I'm captured like this, I might never see her again!"
A man said with a choked voice, his eyes filled with fear. The Kyushu Eighteen Sects had a notorious reputation. Now that they were captured, it was unlikely they would be able to return.
"If anyone makes any more noise, kill them directly!"
Tu Wenhai said coldly. "You dare to make noise after being captured by my Kyushu Eighteen Sects? Do you not want to live!"
The man was greatly frightened and quickly shut his mouth. He didn't want to die here. Perhaps there was still a glimmer of hope if they went to the Kyushu Eighteen Sects.
After a long while, they were released from the formation. However, they were no longer in their original location but on a vast, open grassland. Above the grassland was a huge spirit mine, where many miners were transporting spirit ore, looking quite exhausted but not in danger of losing their lives.
"This will be your job from now on. Once you come to my Kyushu Eighteen Sects, don't think about leaving!" Tu Wenhai said. "As long as you work hard, my Kyushu Eighteen Sects will have inexhaustible wealth. If you disobey, there is only one word. I believe you know what that word means!"
After speaking, Tu Wenhai took out a spirit ring. With a wave of his hand, the spiritual energy of everyone present gradually dissipated and was absorbed into the spirit ring. At the same time, a sealing force sealed the spiritual energy of everyone present.
Although some people strongly resisted, they could not exert any effect against the powerful suppression. They could only allow the spirit ring to absorb their spiritual energy and seal them.
"Tu Wenhai, have you captured another batch of new slaves?"
A woman walked over, glancing around. She looked strong and imposing, exuding a powerful aura.
"That's right. These slaves have good character!"
Tu Wenhai nodded. "The spirit mine is short of manpower."
"You captured slaves and didn't even tell me!"
The woman said indignantly, her massive body moving as she looked at everyone, seemingly selecting slaves to her liking.
"I say, Fatty, you played a few to death last time. Why are you picking again now?" Tu Wenhai said with a wry smile. "Who can withstand your torment?"
"What do you mean by that!" Fatty glared. "If you're unwilling to part with these slaves, then you can accompany me. I find your appearance quite pleasing, and it suits my taste!"
"Forget it, forget it. I don't have the time!" Tu Wenhai quickly said. He knew very well that if this Fatty got her hands on him, he might not be able to get away. Moreover, he wasn't attracted to her.
"The quality of this batch of slaves is quite high!" Fatty looked them over carefully before approaching Lu Fan. "This one is good. I want him!"
"You really know how to pick!" Tu Wenhai glared. "So young, yet strong as an ox, and seems to be a Saint."
"A Saint?"
Fatty looked at Lu Fan and exclaimed, "You didn't capture some young master from a noble family, did you? If that's the case, they won't let us Kyushu Eighteen Sects off easily!"
"What you say is true. Even if he's a young master from a noble family, once he comes to my Kyushu Eighteen Sects, he must abide by the rules of the Kyushu Eighteen Sects," Tu Wenhai said with a light laugh. "I wish I could capture the Saint Sons and Saintesses from the Holy Lands. It would be nice for us to enjoy ourselves."
"That's a very good idea!" Fatty nodded. "If there's a chance next time, strike directly!"
Lu Fan stood aside, looking at Fatty, and then said, "I have no enmity with you. Why did you capture me?"
"That's a good question!"
Tu Wenhai laughed heartily. "Have you heard of the Kyushu Eighteen Sects? You're still asking why we captured you?"
"Never heard of it!" Lu Fan shrugged, looking around. He noticed that the Kyushu Eighteen Sects were like an iron wall, surrounded by restrictions.
