Miracle Doctor Abandoned Daughter The Sly Emperor's Wild Beast-Tamer Empress

It was a lonesome night.

After Long Sixuan finished his talk with Long Huai, outside the room was still head of the Bloody 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 establishing the Ghost Sect.

As an assassin, 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 eyeballs nearly rolled out.

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

What a big sum!

“Gosh! 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 competition.”

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 participate 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!”
