Miracle Doctor, Abandoned Daughter: The Sly Emperor’s Wild Beast-Tamer Empress-Chapter 632: Becoming Doubtful about the Real Face of the Ghost Emperor
Translator: Storm in a Teacup
The Underground Palace was like a nightmare for numerous warriors on the continent.
There was no exception even for a famous assassin like Xue Long.
He ranked 18th on the continent list of assassins. But that meant little since the top 10 were all from the Underground Palace.
Moreover, there was an extremely abnormal rule in the Underground Palace. According to the rule, as long as the people of the palace were hurt, the whole palace would move heaven and earth to hunt the offender.
Thinking of the phrase “moving heaven and earth”, Xue Long could not stop his sweat which was pouring down his face like a waterfall.
In the blink of an eye, the woman before with a pitch-black face turned into a fierce demon for Xue Long.
Xue Long’s face trembled violently as if in a cramp.
Ye Lingyue saw Xue Long reacting so strangely and was about to tell him kindheartedly that she had nothing to do with the Underground Palace.
But the wind started blowing at this very moment.
The fierceness was combined with a thirst for blood.
No, it was not the wind but scary Yuan power like the surging tides.
There was a giant shadow on the ground and Xue Long could not help looking up.
The space was filled with massive Yuan energy. A figure stood still in the air like the huge pole used to stabilize the Dragon’s Palace in Journey to the West.
There was a loud bang in the brain of Xue Long.
It was a man wearing clothing that was even darker than the night. His expressionless face highlighted a red scar like a poisonous worm swallowing the senses of others. Terror filled up Xue Long’s heart.
Captain?
Ye Lingyue was stupefied. It was her that hurt Xue Long just now. But Di appeared halfway and defeated Xue Long without even moving one finger. It seemed that she was completely overshadowed.
Ye Lingyue was shocked s little bit. She seemed to have seen such an imposing manner in someone else.
When Di appeared, Dao Ge, Song Jingyun, Yan Jiu, Lan Cai’er and Bo Qing also rushed over spontaneously from different places.
The knives in their hands were all bloodstained. Seeing this, Xue Long felt that he had fallen into an abyss of misery.
All dead. None of his dozens of followers had survived.
What were they?!
Xue Long’s eyes swept across all of them. Eventually, he fixed his eyes on Di who was standing in the air and looking down.
This man was extremely powerful.
So powerful that Xue Long could not figure out which level on earth he had reached.
“Fine. I, Xue Long, have made a single mistake despite my careful planning today, hence being defeated by all of you. But I will not let you have an easy time even if I have to die.” Xue Long rushed towards Ye Lingyue, the Yan pill inside his body bursting open all of a sudden. The pill gave off the reincarnation power that was as splendid as the rising sun.
What enormous power when the Yuan pill of a warrior in the fourth realm of reincarnation burst open!
Ye Lingyue was the nearest person to Xue Long and she became the easy target.
“Look out!”
Ye Lingyue only felt that Xue Long’s body before her had turned into an enormous stream of air.
When she was about to be knocked down, a figure stood before her.
What she saw then was Di’s eyes.
A pair of amber eyes that gave her an electric shock.
“Wu...” Before Ye Lingyue was able to react, she smelled blood. After that, Sha and others rushed over.
The night would end and the campsite recovered its quietness.
After taking the poison-removing pills, the members of Drinking Blood also recovered their Yuan energy. Dao Ge was slightly injured when trying to protect Song Jingyun. Except that, all were safe and sound.
Why could Di and others get rid of the the trap so quickly? It was because Di had cooperated with Sha to defeat more than half of the assassins.
Some of the remaining ones were killed by Bo Qing.
After the ghost wind dispersed, Long Baobao and others were also helped out. That meant a temporary end to this enemy attack.
Di was hurt when trying to save Ye Lingyue. After Yan Jiu bound up his wound, all gathered up.
“I am sorry. I did not expect those people to be assassins.” Song Jingyun was fully ashamed.
“Lady Song, a simple apology is obviously not enough. This time, you have not only prolonged our task but also caused our captain’s injury. We must settle the account in a nice way.” Yan Jiu was quite unhappy.
If it had not been for the stupid woman
Song Jingyun, they would not have fought so hard the whole night.
“What do you want?” Dao Ge was also hurt in the left arm. He knew that they were the wrong side this time.
“It is simple. All the credits for this task belong to us. In addition, for all the high-level tasks next month, our group Disha will have the preoption.” As the head of Yan City, Yan Jiu was doubtlessly good at negotiating for his own benefits.
If he did not grasp the opportunity to extort a big sum, he could not be called Yan Jiu.
“Do you mean that we will work for nothing?” The other members of Drinking Blood were inflamed.
They had already given more than 100, 000 credits to Ye Lingyue, a bloodsucking blackmailer. If the credits for this task all belonged to Disha, they would lose everything.
“That is what I mean. What? Are you feeling it’s unfair? Then, let me ask you who saved the young master Long Baobao this time. It is all thanks to our Black Moon. She is so clever and predicted the danger well in advance. If it had not been for her, ten young masters like Long Baobao would have turned into steamed rice buns carried away by the dog. When the assassin disguised himself as a little boy and tried to kill Long Baobao, where were you?” Yan Jiu’s words were full of scorn.
The members of Drinking Blood did not know what to say.
Yan Jiu was right. They had nearly caused the unnatural death of Long Baobao.
They were not even able to protect a little kid. If word got out, it would undoubtedly deal a serious blow to the reputation of Drinking Blood.
Ye Lingyue was a little embarrassed when hearing this. It was the first time for the sharp-tongued vice captain to praise her like this.
“We don’t want the credits for the task.” Bo Qing spoke out suddenly.
Ever since last night, Bo Qing had been acting in a weird way. He kept staring at Di and his gaze was scary.
Dao Ge was helpless and could only grin and bear it.
“Thank you for saving the young master and me.” Steward Huang’s face was full of gratitude.
“Mr. Huang, there is no need to show thanks. We have had a discussion already and our conclusion is that we can only escort you here. Because you have concealed the real difficulty of the task, our group has nearly made a big loss. According to the rules of the Alliance of Mercenaries, we can end our cooperative relationship unilaterally.” Yan Jiu looked grim and his gaze at Steward Huang and Long Baobao showed full alienation.
