Chapter 571: The End Of Hong Family (Part 2)

Chapter 458 “The Hypothetical Relations.h.i.+p between Feng Shen and Wu Chong”

In that instant where she turned around to confront that voice, Ling Yue actually had the illusion that she was facing Wu Chong instead . Fortunately that only lasted for brief a second .

“The name’s Yan Jiu, I am the Lord of this Underground City,” the man introduces himself .

Though this person also wore a mask similar to that hateful person, it’s a definite he’s not Wu Chong . The Ghost Emperor would never talk in such a manner . Furthermore, she can’t even a.s.sociate this individual with the pleasant voice to the rude and unreasonable person, the att.i.tude was the polar opposite .

However, not everyone here was taking that friendly reception all that well . To the old monster, the friendlier this masked person was to them, the more unnerved he became . It’s not that he’s mistaking a good deed for evil, just that he knows full well how frightening Yin Jiu truly can be .

Although there are eighteen of these secret cities in existence, but that doesn’t necessarily mean each City Lord was made equal . Yan Jiu’s true ident.i.ty was in fact the third commanding figure within the Underground Palace, meaning there are only the Ghost Emperor and another on top of him!

“Lord Yan Jiu, if you were waiting for me to wake up first before pursuing the matter of your subordinate’s death then you can say it now . ”

Now this was quite surprising for this man . To see how quickly and calm the response was from the girl in light of having her face ruined, Yan Jiu’s opinion of this “one” definitely improved somewhat . Make no mistake though, neither of them have forgotten the reason why they are in this predicament .

“Miss, I’ve already investigated the whole matter with Cheng Gang and his brother . He’s been executed as well as his entire family, does such result appease Miss?” Yan Jiu’s explanation instantly causes those present to turn white . One for the fact that the shorty was killed, the second being how quickly they worked .

Destroying a weed must be done at the roots, that much was true . However, to say it in a fas.h.i.+on like someone mentioning the weather of the day was… . too much? Then again, this was consistent with the Underground Palace’s usual practice of leaving no room for negotiation .

Ling Yue must admit, she’s become more addicted to killing after the mutation with her Black Cauldron, but that’s only because she was forced into a corner . What’s more, she had even readied herself to face the relentless pursuit of the Underground City after the incident, that’s why this outcome caught her by such surprise .

Besides, this Yan Jiu ain’t fooling anyone, he’s a ruthless character in and out . However, that tone, that friendliness, why does she keep getting the sensation that he’s trying to flatter her?

Likely able to guess the doubt in the girl’s mind, “Miss Ling Yue, you actually don’t need to be so distant with me . Truth is, I also have another ident.i.ty and that is Feng Shen’s brother . As for why I know about you, it’s because of this Phoenix Edict that fell out of your pocket . ”

“Feng Shen’s brother? Then does that mean the reason Wu Chong is willing to act as his shadow guard is because of you?” Too many fortuitous happenings have led her to start doubting some of the things in the past .

Looking back, from the beginning of where she headed to Gla.s.s City to the Sha Sect’s demise, Wu Chong would always appear in the most perfect timing . To say it’s not bizarre was an understatement, especially the last encounter in the Black Valley where Feng Shen was supposedly recovered by that b.a.s.t.a.r.d .

But now that she knows the connection between her man and this Yin Jiu, Ling Yue can finally understand why someone as rich as Feng Shen would only bring one bodyguard and Mr . Mu along with him to Da Xia .

Who would dare attempt a kidnap while in the presence of the Ghost Emperor? That would be suicidal!

No wonder that man would know about those private stuff between me and Feng Shen… .

Recalling back to the embarra.s.sing conversation she had from before, Ling Yue’s ear instantly started to burn . Fortunately there’s a whole layer of bandages to cover her face, otherwise she wouldn’t even know where to begin explaining herself .

But not all was well in this room with everyone, not for Jin Wu Monster anyways even after that last explanation . Almost as if he’s having a cramp, the old monster repeatedly winks at the girl to signal it’s extremely rude to address the Ghost Emperor by his name .

“Shadow guard, ughh, ha, well, this you better talk to him about it instead when he shows up in the coming day . ” Yin Jiu wasn’t all that surprised that she’s familiar with Feng Shen, after all, she’s already holding the Phoenix Edict, but Wu Chong also?

When did Wu Chong ever become so interested in these little girls?

According to Yin Jiu’s memory, that “person” had always been into the hot and s.e.xy type, not these inexperienced la.s.ses that never got baptized into the joy of life .

“Feng Shen is coming?” Subconsciously, a pang of reluctance fills the girl’s heart .

If she herself would loathe the current form that she has, what would the boy think? What’s more, this Underground City was no place for a person like Feng Shen who, in her view, was pure white and clean .

“Feng Shen likely wouldn’t come, but… . . he would likely send someone to bring you the medicine . ” When reaching up to this point, Yin Jiu’s tongue definitely started to stammer like he didn’t want to make this part clear .

Hey now, this is not my fault for not speaking the truth, it’s you not asking about it .

In reality, he too didn’t want that “person” to come knocking on his door right now . It’s no secret how temperamental that “person” can be, now imagine what sort of ruckus he would cause knowing the cause was right now in this Underground City #9 . It be strange if he didn’t tear this place apart!

Shooting another glance over to the patient on the bed, Yin Jiu suddenly had the strange feeling of “only a family would walk the same door” here . He’s not blind, considering all the actions this girl did during her visit here, she’s practically a second “Feng Shen” but in a girl form . Talk about misfortune after misfortune!

“If it is just because of my face then there’s no need to trouble Feng Shen . Our Da Xia may not be comparable to North Qing’s military strength but that doesn’t mean our alchemic field is inferior . ” As someone equipped with the treasures of Mr . Red Mist and Lady Jade Poison Hand, Ling Yue has full confidence she can rejuvenate her flesh and body using her own strength .

Undoubtedly, there’s a strong level of pride in that claim . If it was any other outside of Yin Jiu whose hearing this then they would surely take it as arrogance, but not to the man here, it’s very convincing for some reason .

“Lady’s injury is caused by us so of course it would be the Underground City’s responsibility . If my speculations are correct, all of you are here to seek out the source of the black fog am I correct? If that’s the case, I suggest you look elsewhere . The cause is in North Qing, as well as the cure . ” Yin Jiu’s word instantly catches their attention .
