As for why they were still given quarters to live in, it was simply to ensure they would continue testing the elixirs.
If people risked their lives testing medicines and had to be locked up in prison as well, many would prefer to end their lives.
Finding a Slave of Medicine at the late stage of Energy Condensation is not an easy task.
Upon entering the quarters, Chu Ning first spread out his Divine Sense, searching the entire yard bit by bit until he was certain that the Wenjin Sect hadn't tampered with anything there.
"Now it's just a matter of when that Black Serpent creature will come to find me."
Before being taken away by a disciple of the Wenjin Sect, Chu Ning had instructed Black Serpent to take the mirror and that Flying Sword, along with some Spirit Stones, and hide first.
He wasn't worried about Black Serpent running away, because if he encountered any danger and spilled the secret about Chang Sheng, Black Serpent wouldn't be able to escape either.
That night.
