Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend

Chapter 659: Chapter 527: The Last Chance

Seeing that Song Cheng wasn’t dead, the last bit of color drained from Song Jingyun’s face.

Her body swayed, as if she would faint at any moment.

”Lord Yan Jiu, I beg you to spare me, I’ve confessed everything. It was Miss Song who directed me to deal with Lan Cai’er, and five years ago, she also ordered me to lead several mercenaries disguised as assassins to ambush General Lan. She also made me secretly take Lan Cai’er to the Primordial Demon Cave, where we encountered Miss Song being intimate with Dao Ge. All of these actions were her instructions, I was simply following orders.” Before Song Cheng could finish, Song Jingyun let out a shriek and rushed forward.

”Shut your mouth, if you say one more word, I’ll have my father kill your entire family. Song Cheng, you dog servant, you’re nothing but a dog of the Song Family. If it weren’t for your coaxing at my side, how could I have done these things? And you, Lan Cai’er, why did you have to reappear? Then Dao Ge wouldn’t have been fickle.”

Song Jingyun’s voice was hoarse with exertion; she muttered to herself, ignoring the astonished gazes of the crowd.

Dao Ge’s hands clenched tightly into fists, the wound that had been stabbed by a porcelain shard split open again.

But this was nothing compared to the pain in his heart; he looked at Song Jingyun as if she were a stranger.

All of this had been done by Song Jingyun, the girl who had followed him since childhood, calling him Brother Dao. When did she change into what she was now?

Dao Ge’s gaze moved past Song Jingyun and landed distantly on Lan Cai’er.

Lan Cai’er, held in the arms of the towering Yan Jiu, looked so petite.

The two of them stood together, so well-matched. At the moment, Yan Jiu was speaking to Lan Cai’er, who blushed as if reverting to her youthful appearance.

And all this once belonged to him, but due to a cruel twist of fate, slipped through his fingers.

”Jingyun! Have you gone insane?” Alliance Leader Song was horrified; Jingyun’s confession was tantamount to admitting that everything was her doing. ”Ladies and gentlemen, I apologize. My daughter has just been jilted, and her spirit is flagging, that’s why she’s talking nonsense. Being young, she must have been misguided by others to have done such foolish things.”

”Foolish things? Alliance Leader Song, your words are more pleasing than your singing. When my woman killed an evildoer in self-defense, you were clamoring for a life for a life. Now that your daughter has committed a grave sin, you say she’s too young to understand. With you as an Alliance Hierarch, I truly worry for the future of the Mercenary Alliance. Since you won’t act, I’ll help you clean your own house,” sneered Yan Jiu.

”Alliance Hierarch, it’s bad, the city is surrounded by a large number of Yan Yi Envoys outside.”

Several mercenaries burst in, their faces stricken with panic.

Before they could finish, several mercenaries from Gluttonous Wolf suffered first; they were slain by the Yan Yi Envoys before they could even resist.

In no time at all, the Mercenary Alliance was thrown into chaos.

Alliance Leader Song protected his daughter, with a grave expression. Behind him, several veteran mercenaries drew their weapons, confronting Yan Jiu and his men.

”Yan Jiu, don’t push things too far.” Dao Ge took a deep breath. Despite harboring deep grievances against Alliance Leader Song and his daughter, Dao Ge felt he owed something on the matter of the broken engagement. ”The people of Gluttonous Wolf have already received their due punishment. As for the past... it’s all in the past.”

Saying this, Dao Ge looked at Lan Cai’er with a bitter expression.

”Cai’er, I have wronged you, can we start over?”

Lan Cai’er did not speak. Her affection for Dao Ge was once the most significant pain in her heart; she thought she would be trapped in it for a lifetime.

Not until she met Yan Jiu did she know that there is someone in this world who could love her to the bone, who would stand up for her when she was wronged.

Lan Cai’er wanted to tell Dao Ge that she no longer resented him.

Suddenly, her waist tightened.

Lan Cai’er lowered her head and saw that Yan Jiu’s hand was tightly gripping her, his eyes deep and glaring at her.

That gaze seemed to threaten to snap her waist if she dared nod in agreement.

This overbearing man made Lan Cai’er’s heart sour and sweet.

”Let it go, whatever happened between us is in the past. I’ve already found the person I love. Miss Song has deep feelings for you; she has waited for you for so many years. You shouldn’t let her down.”

Yan Jiu was still tense, worried that Lan Cai’er would go soft for that scoundrel Dao Ge, but when he heard ”the person I love,” his heart melted, swiftly followed by a surge of ecstasy that flooded his being.

He had an impulse to pick up Lan Cai’er and kiss her fiercely.

But in front of so many Yan Yi Envoys, he had to maintain some semblance of a City Lord’s dignity.

”Did you hear that clearly? My Lan Lan is magnanimous enough not to bother with you all. Since she has spoken, I’ll no longer take the Mercenary City issue to heart,” Yan Jiu coughed a few times, with a face full of benevolence.

”Hang on, the matter with your woman is settled, but the matter with my woman is not. Dao Ge, I’m asking you, where did Bo Qing go?”

Wu Zhong had been watching the drama unfold to the point of nearly dozing off.

Seeing Yan Jiu’s infatuated, silly grinning face, he found it irritating.

The kid must be proud, having won a beauty.

His Little Yueyue was taken away by someone, and her whereabouts were still unknown.

”Bo Qing?” Dao Ge’s expression was a little strange.

He glanced at Wu Zhong, and his heart suddenly leaped. Yan Jiu’s identity had been made clear, and thus the identity of the Emperor before him spoke for itself.

That youngster Bo Qing had gotten himself involved with Ghost Emperor Wu Chong.

This matter had to be promptly communicated to the Sect Master couple.

”Bo Qing has gone to Purple Bamboo Ridge; it seems he has found the whereabouts of Qiankun Purple Gold Bamboo there,” Dao Ge pondered for a moment, then decided to come clean.

No sooner had he finished speaking than Wu Zhong vanished like a whirlwind.

”Hey, wait for us. Cai’er, let’s follow him,” Yan Jiu rolled his eyes, without a second thought grabbed Lan Cai’er, and followed Wu Zhong.

No sooner had the two of them left than the Yan Yi Envoys surrounding Mercenary City swiftly departed.

From the unexpected encirclement to the sudden withdrawal, the orderliness of the Yan Yi Envoys and their superior movement techniques left a lasting impression on the mercenaries.

”Brother Dao, thank you for just now, for being willing to stand by me and my father’s side.” Seeing that almost everyone had left, Song Jingyun had also recovered from her earlier emotional state, returning to her usual submissive demeanor, timidly approaching Dao Ge.

But who would have thought that Dao Ge would look at her indifferently, without a trace of warmth in his eyes.

”Song Jingyun, I’ve said it before, I would only give you one chance. This time, my help for Mercenary City will suffice for my breach of engagement. From now on, there will be no connection between our two families. You must not trouble Lan Cai’er anymore, otherwise, I will personally kill you,” Dao Ge said, then snorted coldly and strode out of the Mercenary Alliance.

Song Jingyun stood behind him, her complexion ashen, but the hatred in her eyes was like wildfire, wildly growing.
