When Ye Lingyue returned to Pastoral Village, it was just before dawn.
Lan Cai'er and Aguduo had already come back; from afar, Ye Lingyue saw the Purple Micro Alabaster Elephant standing at the entrance of the village.
Several village children were attempting to climb onto the elephant's trunk, having a blast.
"Ling Yue, what did you and Jin Wu Old Monster do last night? We couldn't find you guys as soon as we came back." Lan Cai'er and Aguduo had already captured several Spiritual Beasts.
Most of these Spiritual Beasts were fifth-sixth grade and had been contaminated by Hei Wu, making them ferocious.
Ye Lingyue took Aguduo aside and shared her thoughts; Aguduo seemed hesitant at first, but eventually nodded her head.
In her subconscious, Aguduo still felt that all Spiritual Beasts were her friends, but considering that if Ye Lingyue's method succeeded, it could save countless lives and more Spiritual Beasts on the Xixia Plain, Aguduo compromised.
