Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend

Chapter 834: Chapter 701: The Mastermind Behind the Scenes

Die Mei randomly picked an inn in the city to settle the disciples of Yaochi Immortal Pavilion, and also sent someone to notify Yue Mei.

After everything was properly arranged, Die Mei quietly left Sifang City.

As soon as Die Mei left Sifang City, she lightly tapped her foot, and her figure floated over the Rift Valley Sand River like a leaf on duckweed.

After traveling about three to four miles, Die Mei saw a Four-direction Boat drifting towards her.

There was a person sitting on the boat, wearing a bamboo hat.

The person’s face was hidden under the bamboo hat, making it impossible to see clearly, with several Dead Butterflies fluttering beside them.

Upon seeing the newcomer, a joy appeared on Die Mei’s face, and she gracefully landed.

”Mas...” Die Mei was just about to bow.

”Elder Ying, no need for formalities. It’s not convenient for us to meet for too long. How did you end up in Sifang City?”

The voice was round and clear, revealing that it was a woman. Under the bamboo hat, a pair of black eyes sparkled like morning stars, and it was none other than Ye Lingyue.

Ye Lingyue looked at Die Mei and saw that her soul had merged very well with Elder Ying.

Originally, Elder Ying’s body was over forty years old, somewhat aged, but since Die Mei had merged with her body, Elder Ying looked much younger.

Between her brows, there also emerged a charm and grace unique to Die Mei, which even caused Ye Lingyue, a woman herself, to take a few extra glances.

”I am accompanying the direct disciple of the Pavilion Master of Yaochi Immortal Pavilion here,” said Die Mei, succinctly recounting the information she gleaned while mingling in the Yaochi Immortal Pavilion and the conversation between Yue Mei and the Sifang City Lord.

She feared that Ye Lingyue wouldn’t know about the origin of the Demon Awakening Gate, so she briefly explained it again.

The Demon Awakening Gate?!

This was the first time Ye Lingyue had heard of the Demon Awakening Gate, and one could imagine her astonishment.

”When I was in the Earth Evil Prison, I once heard the Earth Evil Great Lord mention the Demon Awakening Gate. It seems that the Earth Evil Great Lord himself also came to the Qing Province Continent through the Demon Awakening Gate. However, he was trapped by the owner of the Heaven and Earth Array into the array itself. Nevertheless, the Earth Evil Great Lord was probably just an ordinary being from beyond the Demon Awakening Gate, showing just how terrifying the Demon Awakening Gate really is,” Die Mei recalled.

Such a Demon Awakening Gate, yet Yue Mei, unaware of the danger, insists on opening it. Just thinking about it, Die Mei couldn’t help but feel an urge to pray for her.

”According to what you said, if the Demon Awakening Gate is opened, it will attract many Fierce Beasts, even Demon God Beasts?”

”Correct, but the strength of these Fierce Beasts and even Demon God Beasts is far superior to those around the Rift Valley Sand River.”

Upon hearing this, a bold idea suddenly emerged in Ye Lingyue’s mind.

Right now, what troubled her most was not being able to find Fierce Beasts to increase Long Baobao’s hunting points.

If she could take advantage of tonight, when the Demon Awakening Gate opens, to fish in troubled waters, she might also snag some hunting points.

Anyway, this competition only requires the hunting of fierce beasts, whether they are fierce beasts from the sand river or from behind the Demon Awakening Gate, there are no specific rules.

She might need to use her brains to avoid being noticed by the Direct Disciples of Yaochi Immortal Pavilion and the Sifang City Lord.

”Master, you’re not thinking of taking advantage of this opportunity...” Die Mei had been following Ye Lingyue for a while, and seeing the shining eyes beneath her bamboo hat, she knew that something significant was amiss.

Her master was someone who feared nothing, which was evident from how she had swept through the floors of Earth Evil Prison from the first to the forty-eighth.

”Exactly, I will not let Long Sixuan win this competition. You must have noticed upon your arrival that there are not many fierce beasts left around the sand river. Demon Awakening Gate is my last chance.”

On the Four-direction Boat, Ye Lingyue licked her lips, which had become somewhat dry from the sand winds, her mind still echoing with the resentful look in Long Baobao’s eyes.

”But master... ah, I know it’s useless to say more. However, master, you should still be wary of Yue Mei, her strength is not weak. As for the Sifang City Lord, you needn’t worry too much. From what I’ve gathered, when the Demon Awakening Gate is opened, the Sifang City Lord must maintain the array and cannot take care of his surroundings. As long as you can break into his array, you can enter the Demon Awakening Gate as well,” Die Mei could see that Ye Lingyue was not one to heed advice, so she could only remind Ye Lingyue to be cautious of Yue Mei.

”Don’t worry, I have my own measures. But you, being mixed in among the Yaochi Immortal Pavilion, be careful. By the way, I have a question for you, do you recognize a kind of bat that can transform into a black butterfly, about the size of my palm? It looks similar to ordinary bats, but its eyes are like two red rubies,” Ye Lingyue recalled those mysterious bats tracking Long Baobao a few days ago.

Ordinary bats are blind, but the bats that Feng Xun killed last time had red eyes.

The more Ye Lingyue thought about it, the more something seemed off.

She suspected it was those bats that allowed Long Sixuan to always stay one step ahead, and there must be other dark forces behind Long Sixuan.

”Are you referring to the Evil Spirit Bat?” Die Mei’s mouth slightly opened, but her tone was certain, seeming to recognize the bat described by Ye Lingyue.

”Do you know about them?” Ye Lingyue had asked casually, not expecting to actually get information.

”Because those Evil Spirit Bats, like my Dead Butterfly, are also born from the same mother, created through secret techniques. However, the Evil Spirit Bat is superior to my Dead Butterfly; with my current strength, I’m unable to refine them. Those capable of refining Evil Spirit Bats must be Evil Cultivators who cultivate Evil Qi, measuring by your Human Clan’s cultivation standards, they must at least be at the Fang Venerate Level, and possibly even stronger, surpassing people like Beiqing Chen Hongru and Elder Ying. If you encounter a group of Evil Spirit Bats, master, it’s better for you to avoid them,” Die Mei expressed her concern.

Her Dead Butterfly is only adept at creating illusions.

But the Evil Spirit Bat possesses skills such as tracking, eavesdropping, and even stealth transformation, which even she can’t deal with.

”From what you’re saying, are Evil Spirit Bats difficult to deal with? But Feng Xun crushed one with ease, could you be mistaken?” Ye Lingyue felt a pang of apprehension yet puzzled.

She clearly saw how Feng Xun easily caught the Evil Spirit Bat.

”That’s highly unlikely. The Evil Spirit Bat is very fast, but if the opponent is Young Master Feng, perhaps it was just a coincidence. Regardless, master, it’s better for you to be cautious,” Die Mei was vague in her response.

She had once fallen for Feng Xin at first sight before Feng Xun suddenly changed his demeanor; to this day, Die Mei vividly remembers his icy gaze.

Just recalling that time makes Die Mei feel as if her blood is freezing.

Actually, she also wondered about Feng Xun’s identity and wanted to ask Ye Lingyue, but she didn’t dare to ask rashly, fearing that Ye Lingyue might suspect her of coveting Feng Xun.

”I will be careful. You go back first, and if you see me in the city later on, just pretend not to know me,” Ye Lingyue nodded, then parted ways with Die Mei.
