Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend-Chapter 851 - 718: Furious to Death

Outside Sifang City, even though the results for most contestants had already been set in stone, among the top fifty contestants, none of the forty-nine whose results had been announced had entered the city first.

Especially just now, when Long Sixuan was declared second place, the crowd erupted into an uproar.

Everyone thought that in this five-day competition, Long Sixuan would be the first place winner.

But at this moment, a first place suddenly emerged?

Who could the first place be?

"First place, Hei Xiaoling."

Hei Xiaoling—Hei Xiaoling.

This name was like a drop of water falling into a pan of hot oil.

Upon hearing it, everyone exploded into commotion.

Many even inquired on the spot, who is Hei Xiaoling?

The name Hei Xiaoling wasn’t very familiar, proving that this contestant wasn’t high-profile.

However, Mu Shuang and his siblings were stunned for a moment before being the first to react.

Hei Xiaoling, wasn’t that the younger brother of Hei Yue, that beautiful little boy who looked like a porcelain doll with his red lips and white teeth?

He, was actually the first place winner?

The name Hei Xiaoling, like a nightmare, hovered around in Long Sixuan’s mind for a moment.

Initially, it fell with a bang, as if three heavy hammers had hit the ground at the same time, causing a Sky-shattering Stone moment, making Long Sixuan’s mind buzz loudly.

All of a sudden, Long Sixuan’s eyes widened.

Wasn’t Hei Xiaoling just an alias used by Long Baobao?

Long Baobao, hadn’t he been eliminated early on, how could he suddenly have jumped to first place?

Long Sixuan felt his knees weaken and stumbled, not knowing who beside him had offered support, allowing him to barely steady himself.

In disbelief, he looked towards Long Baobao.

The little guy had lifted his head at the moment the results were announced.

His delicate little face, flushed with excitement, turned bright red.

"Congratulations to Hei Xiaoling, Long Sixuan, and Hei Yue. The three of you are the top three contestants in this round of hiding. Before the final competition officially begins, you three can stay for free in any inn within Sifang City."

"No, there must be some mistake, how could Hei Xiaoling be in first place!" Long Sixuan still couldn’t bring himself to believe that this was true.

He shouted loudly, and amidst the chaos, he saw Ye Lingyue in the crowd, her face full of joy just like Long Baobao’s.

"It’s you, Hei Yue, it must be you. No wonder you only had one Four Directions Token; it was you who gave all your Four Directions Tokens to Long Baobao, wasn’t it!"

Long Sixuan, like a drunken man in a frenzy, pushed through the crowd, pointing at Ye Lingyue, questioning her.

Long Baobao saw Long Sixuan, and his little fists clenched tighter again.

Ye Lingyue looked on as if watching a joke, giving Long Sixuan a sidelong glance, neither admitting nor denying.

In fact, she had no need to explain anything to Long Sixuan.

The Four Directions Tokens were hers, and it was her business whom she chose to give them to.

Besides, the rules of the competition had made it clear long ago that Four Directions Tokens could be stolen from each other; therefore, voluntary gifting was even more justified.

"Long Baobao, got the gall to cheat but not the face to admit it, right? You’ve been like this your whole life, always with the help of nobles. First, it was Long Huai, and now it’s Hei Yue. I refuse to believe that you can have nobility luck for a lifetime." Long Sixuan was fuming with anger.

He had experienced this kind of thing more than once.

Back then, he had gone to great lengths to meddle, causing the death of Long Baobao’s father, Long Si Hai, through foul play.

He had thought that the seat of the future Family Head would fall onto his own head.

But it was Long Huai, that Old Bastard, who declared in front of everyone that Long Baobao was the Family Head’s successor.

The taste of having a piece of fat meat snatched away from one’s mouth is something Long Sixuan will never forget as long as he lives.

"Hehe, Long Sixuan, sometimes ’nobility luck’ is also a strength in its own. I think our actions haven’t broken any rules of the competition, right?" Ye Lingyue inquired while glancing at the Dong Envoy.

"Correct, neither of you has broken the rules of the competition. Long Family Head, please respect the dignity of Sifang City and refrain from causing trouble outside the city," said the Dong Envoy. She only spoke after looking at the Sifang City Lord standing on the city tower, who nodded in agreement.

"He is not the Long Family Head. He is a beast that kills brothers and imprisons fathers!"

Long Baobao, who had been restraining himself, suddenly spoke up.

In his clear black and white eyes, hatred surged like tumultuous waves, as if with a knife, he wished to flay Long Sixuan a thousand times.

The words of Long Baobao made Long Sixuan’s face even uglier.

By his side, the contestants who were proceeding into the city also turned their heads upon hearing this.

The Dong Envoy was startled and looked back and forth between Long Baobao and Long Sixuan, but chose not to inquire further. Instead, she added another comment.

"The two of you, regardless of your personal grievances, must follow the rules of Sifang City if you wish to enter. Otherwise, please leave Sifang City immediately."

The contestants who came to participate in the competition could use aliases or codenames, provided they did not disturb the World’s First Forging Competition. The enmity between Long Baobao and Long Sixuan was their family affair, and Sifang City was neither obligated nor interested to intervene.

"Little bastard, bask in your glory for now. I refuse to believe that during the World’s First Forging Competition, you can still get help from others. The humiliation I suffered today due to you two, I will one day return a thousandfold," Long Sixuan fumed after being disgraced by Long Baobao, glaring at Long Baobao and Ye Lingyue before begrudgingly entering Sifang City.

Long Sixuan’s words made Long Baobao unexpectedly tense.

Especially that last look he gave Ye Lingyue, it tightened Long Baobao’s heart.

He was deeply afraid that because of himself, Ye Lingyue would also be implicated.

"Sister Yue, I’m sorry for dragging you into the Long Family’s affairs."

"Silly Baobao, the moment I met you, you became my brother, and your business is my business. Let’s enter the city, and we can have a good rest for the next few days," Ye Lingyue patted Long Baobao’s small head and smiled.

She looked up and smiled at the ’aloof and cool’ looking Sifang City Lord on the city tower before entering the city with Feng Xun and Long Baobao.

The Sifang City Lord on the tower, upon seeing Ye Lingyue’s demeanor, felt an unsettling sense of premonition, as if a weasel was paying New Year’s respects to a chicken, likey up to no good.

After the final results of the Sifang Ranking were announced, the contestants entered the city one after another.

As Ye Lingyue and Long Baobao passed through the city gate, Yue Mei, who was in another corner of the city tower, slowly emerged.

She wore a gloomy expression.

"Unexpectedly, it turned out to be him."

"How could it be him?"

Chen Mu stood beside Yue Mei.

Yue Mei and Chen Mu were both on the city tower when the results of the Sifang Ranking were announced tonight. However, unlike the Sifang City Lord, they did not show themselves in front of everyone.

Their purpose for coming here was to find the real culprit who duped them last night.

To their surprise, they indeed found the person.

From the top of the city tower, it was all clear at a glance. Chen Mu and the others immediately recognized the Little Corpse lying in Long Baobao’s arms.

Among the Four Directions Tokens handed in by Long Baobao, one was indeed the token that originally belonged to An Yang.

The truth revealed itself; the "Hei Xiaoling" who ambushed and killed An Yang last night without their knowledge was the same person who framed Chen Mu and Yue Mei.

"That little ghost seems to have some connection with the Long Family," mused Chen Mu. Since his master had a relationship with Long Sixuan, it might be worth asking Long Sixuan about it. 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

"Hmph, don’t deceive yourself. Didn’t you hear what that man surnamed Long said? That Hei Xiaoling couldn’t possibly have acquired so many Four Directions Tokens on his own. Nor is it possible that he entered the Demon Awakening Gate by himself without us noticing. All this must be the work of his accomplice, the woman called Hei Yue," Yue Mei had already heard of Hei Yue’s name.

But seeing Ye Lingyue in person was the first time tonight.

Yue Mei always held herself in high esteem, yet only after seeing Ye Lingyue did she realize that among her peers, there could be such a devastating beauty.
