It was a lonesome night .

After Long Sixuan finished his talk with Long Huai, outside the room was still head of the b.l.o.o.d.y Castle Xue Long . He did not leave immediately .

He hid under the eaves outside like a bat hanging upside down .

Not until the room recovered the quietness did Xue Long leave the Cang State like a ghost .

On the frontier of the Cang State stood a man . Against the chilling night winds and the bright moon, the appearance of the man was easily recognized . It was the vice master of the Ghost Sect Yan Che .

“Vice Master, the thing has been sent to Long Sixuan already . As expected, he did not show any doubt . ”

Xue Long saw the man, went down on one knee and handed the notes .

“Lao Qi, you did a nice job this time . ” Yan Che took the notes and put them in his arms without bothering to take one more look . He would give the notes to Ye Lingyue after reaching the City of Mercenaries .

The one kneeling down beside was obviously not the real Xue Long .

His name was Lou Qi . He was a member of the Thirteen Killers under the Ghost Sect . He was also among the batch of top killers Ye Lingyue cultivated after establis.h.i.+ng the Ghost Sect .

As an a.s.sa.s.sin, Lou Qi might be less powerful than Xue Long who was already dead .

But Lou Qi had learnt about all kinds of martial skills and his appearance was quite similar to Xue Long’s . Besides, Lou Qi knew how to use the Bone Contracting Skill and he was good at various methods of disguising himself . After knowing that Long Sixuan had promised 5 million liang of gold in return, Ye Lingyue came up with a wicked idea .

Long Sixuan’s money was all obtained unlawfully or immorally and it was a good chance to blackmail him . Then Ye Lingyue drew a picture of Xue Long and sent it back to the Ghost Sect . In the last few days, Yan Che arranged all this .

The whole process was flawless . Sure enough, Long Sixuan did not sense anything wrong .

Ye Lingyue knew that Long Sixuan wanted the spiritual artifact as well . Then she grasped the chance to extort another 1 million liang of gold . All this money was timely rain for the future development of Ye Lingyue’s fiefdom .

“Master truly has wonderful foresight . The old head of the Long Family is truly imprisoned by Long Sixuan and it is not easy to help him out . In addition, I am confused about one thing . Why has Master directly sent a high-level earth grade spiritual artifact to Long Sixuan?”

Lou Qi felt that his Master had suffered a loss . It was a high-level earth grade spiritual artifact!

“The ideas of Master can never be figured out by you or me . You just need to do your job . Stay in the Cang State and keep a keen eye on Long Sixuan these days . ” Yan Che could not understand Ye Lingyue’s real intention, either . But he knew that Master always had a good sense of propriety . It must be no exception this time .

Lou Qi took the order, stood up and then flew away . Yan Che headed for the City of Mercenaries with the notes he had just received . He would meet Ye Lingyue there .

Several days later, Yan Che arrived in the City of Mercenaries as scheduled .

When Lan Cai’er saw the dazzling notes worth 6 million liang of gold, she was so surprised that her eyeb.a.l.l.s nearly rolled out .

The scene even stupefied the young master of the Long Family Long Baobao .

What a big sum!

“Gos.h.!.+ Lingyue, have you won another big bet? This is 6 million liang of gold?” Lan Cai’er was green with envy . She could only earn hundreds of thousands of liang of gold annually even though she made arduous efforts to operate Zuixian Restaurant . But her younger sister could make such a fortune in an instant .

“No . This is given by Long Sixuan . ” Ye Lingyue smiled .

“Fourth uncle . . . You mean that money is from the bad guy Long Sixuan?” Long Baobao’s small face instantly twisted into a real steamed rice bun . “Sister Black, do you betray me?”

On second thought, Long Baobao found it was not right .

His head was only worth 5 million liang of gold . His fourth uncle was stingy and sinister and would not give one more penny .

“The money is exchanged for your head and spiritual artifact . Several days earlier, I found the head of a dead child and disguised it as your head . Then I ordered others to send the head and a high-level earth grade spiritual artifact to Long Sixuan . As a result, I got the 6 million liang of gold . ”

“A high-level earth grade spiritual artifact? How prodigal you are! How can you send Long Sixuan such a spiritual artifact? Your elder sister has no such artifact now . ” Hearing Ye Lingyue’s words, Lan Cai’er felt quite helpless .

“The earth grade spiritual artifact is just a white elephant . I got it from Hong Yulang earlier . It is only a low-level earth grade flying machine and happens to be a fan just like what Long Baobao will use to enter the compet.i.tion . ”

The earth grade spiritual artifact Ye Lingyue extorted from Hong Yulang originally belonged to Bo Qing .

The guy Bo Qing was nicknamed the “Treasure Collector” and he had too many treasures to store .

The jade fan Bo Qing gave to Hong Yulang in compensation for their parting could only be used as a flying machine except its nice appearance . But for Bo Qing, nice appearance meant nothing since no person or object could be nicer than himself .

Moreover, Bo Qing felt that the fan was only suitable for women and that he would lose masculinity after using it . It was so wasteful to throw it away . Then Bo Qing gave the fan to Hong Yulang unconcernedly .

After getting the fan, Hong Yulang treasured it so much that he kept it all the time . Unfortunately, the fan was eventually extorted by Ye Lingyue .

Not long after taking in Long Baobao, Ye Lingyue asked the boy about the spiritual artifact he had made . She learnt that the artifact happened to be a fan and then had an idea .

Ye Lingyue knew that Long Baobao’s fan was a high-level earth grade spiritual artifact . If she wanted to deceive Long Sixuan into giving the money, she must present at least a spiritual artifact in the same grade . Then she used the white cauldron breath to purify the low-level earth grade jade fan several times .

The amazing purifying effect of the white cauldron breath was able to remove all the impurities from the jade fan . As a result, the grade of the fan was abruptly improved by 2 .

But that was only the first impression ordinary people would get . The jade fan might look like a high-level earth grade spiritual artifact but powerful master alchemists could easily identify it as a low-level earth grade one .

If Long Sixuan used the jade fan to partic.i.p.ate in the World’s Top Weapon-Maker, the bad result was foreseeable .

“That should be the case . If you really send something good to the inhumane guy Long Sixuan, then it is quite unfair for Little Longbao . ” Ye Lingyue’s explanation made Lan Cai’er relieved .

But Long Baobao looked sorrowful .

“Grandpa . . . If grandpa sees the disguised head, he will feel quite sad . He is always in poor health . ” The little boy’s eyes were as red as those of a small rabbit .

“Little Longbao, you can take it easy . Your grandpa is poisoned but not dead . I have already found out that he is still alive . Moreover, you should remember that both you and your grandpa know that your spiritual artifact is not a jade fan made of colored glaze . As long as he sees the jade fan, he will know that you are still alive . Then he will live on, waiting for you to save him . ” Ye Lingyue rubbed the small head of Long Baobao and tried to comfort him .

Hearing this, Long Baobao was immediately in high spirits . He raised his small head .

“Really? Then I must work harder to pay back Sister Black and Disha . I will become more powerful in order to save grandpa!”
