Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend

Chapter 613: Chapter 482: Artifact Refining Family, Long Family

”Stop!”

The two elder sisters of the Xia Family were shocked and rushed forward to support their younger sister, Xia Qing, whose face had turned pale with fright.

”You hid a needle in your hand to ambush my sister!”

The perceptiveness of the Xia Family sisters was not as good as that of the team leaders on both sides. They only knew that Xia Qing originally had the upper hand, and couldn’t understand what deceitful move Ugly Girl Hei Yue used to suddenly disrupt their sister’s performance.

”How amusing. So she is allowed to poison her claws, but I am not allowed to use needles? Isn’t a needle a weapon, too? Besides, I just chopped off her fingernail. Her fingers are still intact. If you can’t accept defeat, then you shouldn’t be out here trying to compete,” Ye Lingyue rejoiced inwardly upon seeing Xia Qing’s condition.

She had practiced hard for a long time to perfect the fourth needle of the Ghost Sect Thirteen Needles.

The Fire of the Prairie, which could cause one’s Primordial Power to become uncontrollable for a short time, preventing proper circulation of energy. The whole process could last for ten breaths.

Don’t underestimate the duration of these ten breaths; they were enough for Ye Lingyue to ensure victory when facing an opponent with a similar level of cultivation.

Upon inspecting Xia Qing’s hand again, the Xia sisters indeed found that only her fingernail had been severed by Hei Yue, narrowly avoiding injury to the bone and flesh.

After a moment, Xia Qing’s internal Primordial Power finally returned to normal. Her face still showed great trepidation, and her initial disdain for Ye Lingyue turned into fear.

Seeing ”Hei Yue” winning brought disappointment to the faces of Bo Qing and Hong Yulang.

That was not Thirteen. Thirteen was an Alchemist, and this woman, although she had unpredictable moves, was definitely not an Alchemist.

That was not Ye Lingyue; Ye Lingyue used the martial arts passed down from the Buddhist Sect and the Ye Family.

”Miss Hei Yue truly has concealed her prowess deep within. In this competition, ’Emperor’s Slaughter’ wins,” said Song Jingyun, her eyes betraying some displeasure despite the friendly smile on her face. For some reason, she disliked these two female mercenaries named Hei Yue and Lan Lan.

”So impressive!” While speaking, a round of applause broke out, followed by a white figure that seemed to be about to jump onto Ye Lingyue.

Before getting close, Wu Zhong, who had been standing still, suddenly shot forward and caught the white figure.

”Hey hey, what are you doing, why are you grabbing this young master?”

They saw a six or seven-year-old boy, dressed in gold and silver, looking rosy-cheeked and delicate, being held up by his collar by Wu Zhong, suspended in mid-air.

”Let go, if you don’t let go... I’ll have to!” It was only then that the little boy got a good look at Wu Zhong. Seeing the centipede-like scars on his face and his fierce eyes, the little boy’s lips quivered and he burst into tears. ”Grandpa Huang, help! There’s a kidnapper trying to abduct a cute child!”

From a young age, the little boy had been taught by his family that those who look fierce and grab children are kidnappers!

Everyone was speechless.

Wu Zhong felt a pulsating throb at his temple, wishing he could toss this little brat—who knows where he came from—a bit farther away.

”Don’t be afraid, Young Master Baobao, these people are not bad. They are the most formidable mercenaries from the city, hired by this old servant for you!” An old servant, likely more than sixty years old, hurriedly ran in.

The crowd was even more speechless, realizing that this old and young pair were the wealthy patrons who had hired both ”Emperor’s Slaughter” and ”Blood Drink” simultaneously.

After much effort, Little Li finally rescued the young master called Baobao from the clutches of Wu Zhong.

”Captain Di, Captain Dao, these two guests are from Cang Country. This young master is the legitimate grandson of the Long Family from Cang Country, called Long Baobao. This elderly gentleman is Young Master Long’s housekeeper, Old Sir Huang,” introduced Little Li.

What?

Ye Lingyue and Lan Cai’er stared with wide eyes at the little squirt.

His name is Long Bao? Like a steamed bun?

”Pfft.” Ye Lingyue and Lan Cai’er couldn’t help but laugh disrespectfully.

”Hey hey hey, what are you two giggling at?” The little tyke’s face turned bright red, his big sparkling eyes brimming with tears.

Unlike Ye Lingyue and Lan Cai’er, no one else laughed. On the contrary, after learning of the little squirt’s identity, Ye Lingyue noticed that even the ever-stoic Captain Di’s gaze towards the little tyke had changed a bit.

”You don’t know of the Long Family from Cang Country?” Little Li was a bit frantic, blinking furiously at Ye Lingyue and Lan Cai’er.

Indeed, Ye Lingyue and Lan Cai’er truly had no idea. Ye Lingyue had heard of Cang Country, a minor country located on the far eastern side of Qing Province Continent, about the size of the Xixia Plain.

”Tsk tsk, in the future you two better not say you’re members of the Emperor’s Slaughter. You don’t know the Long Family from Cang Country, but have you at least heard of the World’s First Refining? Several generations of the Long Family from Cang Country have been renowned Fang Venerates and have won the title of World’s First Refining multiple times,” Yan Jiu rolled his powerless white eyes.

Others may not know Ye Lingyue’s identity, but Yan Jiu did. As an Alchemist, not knowing about the Long Family from Cang Country was like people from Beiqing not knowing about Dan Palace’s Chen Hongru—ignorant, just ignorant.

World’s First Refining?

Upon hearing this name, Ye Lingyue’s heartbeat couldn’t help but quicken.

”Ignorance is no sin. This lady must be a Martial Artist, so it’s not strange that you don’t know,” Housekeeper Huang didn’t find it odd.

”But Grandpa Huang, she has a very impressive Star Saliva Dagger, even better than the one refined by our Artifact Refining Pavilion,” Young Master Little Steamed Bun said, his beautiful big eyes staring at the dagger on Ye Lingyue’s leg... practically drooling.

If it weren’t for the ”human trafficker”-looking team leader tigerishly observing nearby, he would’ve run over and clung to Ye Lingyue’s leg without letting go.

”What’s with the Star Saliva Dagger? Is it that incredible?” The Xia Family’s Three Sisters took a glance at Ye Lingyue, somewhat disdainful.

Only then did Ye Lingyue come to a sudden realization. So, Young Master Little Steamed Bun had pounced on her earlier because he coveted her Star Saliva.

Indeed, she had put quite a bit of effort into refining her Star Saliva.

Aside from initially using Dragon Saliva Iron, she later refined it twice more, incorporating Meteorite Iron and Nirvana Iron.

She just hadn’t expected that this little tyke, who was only a few years old, would recognize its quality at first glance.

”Will you shut up already. My grandpa says, being ugly is not a big deal, but there’s no cure for stupidity. That’s the Star Saliva Dagger, every Artifact Refiner knows, refining a pure Dragon Saliva Iron or Meteorite Iron Dagger is difficult, and refining an Alloy Iron Dagger is even harder, let alone a triple-combined dagger,” Young Master Little Steamed Bun said contemptuously, silencing the three sisters who couldn’t retort, and they couldn’t do much since he was an important patron and a member of the Long Family from Cang Country.

The audacity to call them, the trio, ugly. The real uglies are Hei Yue and Lan Lan, alright?
