Chapter 148 The Palace Leader Lin Qi

“Nothing. The abbess found a note from Mengshi in a book in her room. She really left on her own and said she would return in three years.”

Hua Qiyue informed airily.

The two maidservants exchanged glances with wide eyes, but didn’t say anything. Hua Qiyue dried her hair and lay in bed with a lot of on her mind.

“Since the 11th branch of the Dark Sect is here… is the mystery man from the Dark Sect?” She wondered.

“Or… he’s not a member of the Dark Sect, but he’s been taken away by the Dark Sect?”

“It seems that in order to find the man, I must have some contact with the Dark Sect. Otherwise, there is no chance of finding him.”

Hua Qiyue felt she didn’t have to look for the sect on purpose, because sooner or later she would have access to the Dark Sect.

…

It was about 500 kilometers away from the Green Mountain Temple.

Here was a wood, and there was a clearing in the wood.

Suddenly a large gash opened slowly in the clearing and a man with a disgusting look appeared.

The man leapt up, lifting up a girl in each hand, and slammed them to the side on the slowly closing ground.

“Yun Shimo, I didn’t know you could destroy my palace after not seeing me for years… Humph, I was thinking of developing members there. He ruined it!”

The man was Lin Qi. After escaping from the palace, he chose to come out here for some air.

He wouldn’t have run away if it had been only Yun Shimo, Hua Qiyue and Huangfu Xuan there. But he felt a redoubtable smell. If he stayed there, he would surely die in the palace.

That scary smell came from the hare. Lin Qi had no idea about this, but he did know that Yun Shimo wasn’t what he used to be.

“But it was a good one,” Lin Qi said, squinting and grinning as these two girls on the ground let out a light moan. “Now there are two beauties becoming my concubines, hee hee.”

These two girls on the ground were Hua Mengshi and Princess Mingzhu.

As soon as Princess Mingzhu was taken away by him, Hua Qiyue and the others went to his palace. They didn’t see Princess Mingzhu because Lin Qi hid her behind.

Princess Mingzhu sat up in terror, and looked around at the strange surroundings, then at Hua Mengshi who was in a tattered dress. “Who… who are you?” She screamed, looking pale. “I am the daughter of Prince Gong in the capital of the Changjing Kingdom. As long as you… you let me go, you will obtain countless taels of gold!”

Lin Qi laughed grimly at the comely and frightened Princess Mingzhu.

“Girl, I am not short of money, but I lack pretty girls. Come on, beauty, it’s your turn to serve me. If you do it good, I’ll reward you!” Lin Qi narrowed his eyes. He had a deep, abiding lust for women, especially female Qi Artists.

Looking at the wretched man’s hands reaching out to her, Princess Mingzhu snapped, “Stop it! I am the Qi Artist that Changlong Emperor thinks high of!”

Lin Qi held Princess Mingzhu down regardless. He had drained her anima energy when she was sucked into the palace, so she had no strength to defend herself.

Hua Qiyue and the others were able to protect themselves with their anima energy because of their high level of Qi Art, so they were not affected by Lin Qi.

Lin Qi picked Princess Mingzhu up and tore all her clothes. Her skin, as white as snow, was exposed to the moon.

Her red tube top made Lin Qi even hotter. As Princess Mingzhu screamed, Lin Qi ripped off her tube top.

Looking at her perfect body, Lin Qi laughed wildly. Then he pressed Princess Mingzhu down on a boulder in the clearing and did her frantically. Princess Mingzhu’s eyes widened in horror as she endured the pain of her lower body being torn, and the ache of her tender white back being rubbed against the boulder beneath her.

“Hahaha, beauty, you are so beautiful! How sweet you are… Hahaha…”

Lin Qi laughed licentiously and tormented the young body madly…

The woods echoed with Princess Mingzhu’s screams and angry curses, and the man’s gasps…

After a long while, Princess Mingzhu fainted, and Lin Qi was satisfied. Only then did he find Hua Mengshi awake.

Hua Mengshi, who was also badly abused by him, stood up calmly and offered, “Palace Leader, let me dress you.”

Lin Qi was highly delighted by her words. Hua Mengshi walked up to him, respectfully picked up his clothes and put them on him.

Hua Mengshi was a genetical beauty and born with a noble grace. Being served by such a girl gave Lin Qi great satisfaction.

While he was enjoying it, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in the back of his neck. Instantly, all his anima energy was drained away. “You bitch! You… stole my Energy-drawing Needle!” Lin Qi swore in shock.

Lin Qi tried hard to turn around. Unfortunately, his strength was the same as that of an ordinary person, because all his spiritual energy had been drained away. Hua Mengshi gathered all her spiritual energy into her hands and slapped him hard on the head!

Lin Qi’s head exploded and blood gushed out. He looked in astonishment at Hua Mengshi, who was calm and cruel. The next second, he died and fell to the ground after wriggling unwillingly.

Hua Mengshi gave a sneer and glanced at Princess Mingzhu on the ground. With Princess Mingzhu covered in disgusting stuff, it seemed that Lin Qi had just had great satisfaction.

In fact, Lin Qi’s Energy-drawing Needle landed noiselessly on the grass as he undressed. Hua Mengshi stole the needle while he was torturing Princess Mingzhu.

Hua Mengshi had seen him use the needle to drag Princess Mingzhu down from the pond and into his palace, so of course she knew its use.

“You’re such an impotent Palace Leader. You had better go to hell as soon as possible. I’ll be the Palace Leader. Humph!”

With a cold snort, Hua Mengshi took the Palace Leader’s token from Lin Qi and searched for some spirit weapons. Then Princess Mingzhu woke up.

Princess Mingzhu was shocked and furious when she saw Lin Qi was dead. She really wanted to personally tear this man to pieces, because he had destroyed her virginity. If she returned to the capital, she would be spurned by countless people.

In the Changjing Kingdom and even throughout the Tianyuan Continent, unmarried women who were not virgins would be spurned and abandoned by their husbands when they got married.

Then her life would be full of miseries.

“If you want revenge, go with me. If it weren’t for Hua Qiyue, this wouldn’t have happened to you. Without her, Yun Shimo might like you, and you might be able to live a stable life as a princess. However, you’re ruined by this bastard. You’re not going to have a good life.”

Hua Mengshi declared grimly while looking at Princess Mingzhu, who was in a mess.

Princess Mingzhu cried, her eyes full of hatred. “Okay, I’ll go with you!”

Hua Mengshi let out a gentle sigh and helplessly took off the man’s clothes and asked Princess Mingzhu to wear them temporarily.

The two women took a look at the dead body on the ground, walked out of the woods, and disappeared into the darkness…

…

Early the next morning.

Hua Qiyue and the others had packed their clothes and were about to return to the capital.

Hua Qiyue tried to persuade Abbess Yi Zhen to take those Taoist nuns to the capital or to leave the place. After all, the Dark Sect had nailed their eyes on this place.

Once they rebuilt the palace, there would be no peace here.

However, Abbess Yi Zhen was determined not to leave this place, and Hua Qiyue had to give up.

When everyone was ready, they all got on the carriages. Princess Huiling was really scared dumb by Lin Qi’s vision that night. As a delicate princess, she had never seen such a hideous monster. Added to what she had borne lately, she had become delirious.

Hua Qiyue sat in the carriage with her eyes closed to refresh her spirit, and heard Princess Huiling’s silly laughter. “Where are we going?”

“Your Highness, we’re on the way back to the royal palace.”

“The royal palace? Where is the royal palace? I’m hungry. Hey, give me something to eat. Sesame seed cake… Hee hee, I love sesame seed cakes…”

Princess Huiling was totally stupid. Hua Qiyue had observed her carefully and decided that she couldn’t be pretending because she didn’t have to.

When she suffered so much, she still clamored to kill her. How could she lay down her great pride and play the fool?

Besides, it didn’t do her any good to be silly. If Hua Qiyue was in a hurry to kill her, she might be playing dumb to avoid it.

The problem was that Hua Qiyue didn’t care about her.

“Princess Huiling has always been proud and mean. I didn’t think she’d end up like this,” Yun Shimo said blandly.

Hua Qiyue didn’t want to talk to him.

Hua Qiyue decided not to chat with him after he took advantage of her. She bristled at the thought of what happened that day.

Looking at her gorgeous face, Yun Shimo involuntarily gave a faint smile and gently moved to stay close to Hua Qiyue. As the carriage jolted, their shoulders collided.

Hua Qiyue opened her eyes in a flash and saw Yun Shimo close to her. She turned her head slightly and saw his eyes, which seemed to overflow with mist.

The medicine smell from him was very fragrant, which was the fragrance of some rare flowers mixed. It was delicious, refreshing and cool.

Hua Qiyue got angry and questioned, “Why are you sitting so close to me?”

“I want to see what you’re thinking,” Yun Shimo replied airily.

He had a smile on his lips that looked like a half-opened flower, and appeared very mysterious and somewhat ambiguous.

Hua Qiyue was surprised and cross. When she tried to get up, the man put his hands on her shoulders to stop her. “If you are really afraid of me, why did you not contradict my story that night, but acquiesced in what I said?”

Hua Qiyue knew exactly what he was talking about, so she involuntarily gave him a dirty look, twisted her lip and said, “Yun Shimo, you are so long-winded. Clearly you took advantage of me, and I used you. We’re even. Why not just let it go?”

Yun Shimo’s warm eyes suddenly turned cold. He had no idea that Hua Qiyue would say he was long-winded.

At this moment, Hua Qiyue wanted to find an excuse to go to Princess Huiling’s carriage. Although she didn’t like Princess Huiling, Princess Huiling was stupid, and she didn’t have to worry about anything.

Yun Shimo, however, exerted more force on his hands and she failed to stand up.

Hua Qiyue was taken aback. When she was about to scold him, Yun Shimo’s pretty face was close to hers, and his soft lips covered her small mouth.

The soothing sensation was transmitted from Hua Qiyue’s nerves to her senses. Her face was suddenly flushed and her heart stirred.

It was as if her whole body was numb and she had no strength to break the man’s stranglehold and avoid his kiss.

His bossy kisses had made Hua Qiyue go limp, but now they were making her heart pound.

When she struggled, Yun Shimo became aggressive. He clasped her head with one hand, forbade her to move, and kissed her endlessly.
