Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend

Chapter 874: Chapter 743: The Most Poisonous Is a Woman’s Heart

The World’s Greatest Forge in Sifang City finally opened its curtain after several days of waiting.

Arriving at about the same hour were the siblings Mu Wu and Mu Shuang, who exchanged a few polite greetings with Ye Lingyue as usual.

With some time left before the World’s Greatest Forge began, Mu Wu changed the topic.

”Miss Hei Yue, you’d better be careful these days.”

Ye Lingyue was taken aback, not understanding Mu Wu’s intentions.

”Don’t misunderstand, Miss Hei Yue, I mean no harm. But you must have heard that An Qiniang from Hunyuan Sect was killed. It’s said to have been done by people from the Underworld Yama Palace. Years ago, they were already rampantly plundering artifact refiners and alchemists across the mainland. Competitors like you and me in the top ten need to be extra cautious to avoid being targeted.”

Mu Wu said worriedly.

The influence of the Underworld Yan Hall on the mainland has been growing increasingly rampant over the years.

This time, even a Half-step Divine Power Realm like An Qiniang was killed, and many rumors suggest that the Underworld Yan Hall doesn’t even regard the Nine Sects’ leader, Hunyuan Sect, eye to eye. Their purpose here is precisely to target talented artifact refiners participating in the World’s Greatest Forge.

For a moment, the artifact refiners were filled with dread, fearing that they’d become the next target for the Underworld Yan Palace.

Mu Wu’s concern was genuine, as Hei Yue was third on the Sifang Ranking and considered a popular contender for the World’s Greatest Forge final tournament. He thought it was easy for her to be targeted by the Underworld Yama Palace.

After listening to Mu Wu, Long Baobao and others showed faces of tension, while Ye Lingyue felt an urge to play a prank. If Mu Wu knew, right in front of him was Feng Xun, Vice Hall Master of the Underworld Yan Hall, one wonders what he would think.

Thinking of this, Ye Lingyue recalled the matter between Feng Xun and Wu Zhong and couldn’t help but glance at Feng Xun more.

But Feng Xun too was fixedly looking at her, with an inexplicable expression in his eyes.

”Everyone, the City Lord invites you.”

The gate of the City Lord’s Mansion opened wide, with the Southern Envoy and Northern Envoy from the Four Directions Envoy walking out.

As Ye Lingyue and Long Baobao entered the City Lord’s Mansion, a high tower opposite the mansion entrance could be seen.

Hong Mingyue, dressed in cherry pink, squinted her beautiful eyes, gazing at Ye Lingyue’s back.

”Ming Yue, where did you go early in the morning?” Luo Song was searching everywhere for Hong Mingyue and hustled right up to her as soon as he spotted her, reaching out wanting to hold her.

Following her gaze, Luo Song saw Ye Lingyue and others. ”Ye Lingyue, Ming Yue, you wouldn’t be thinking of acting during the World’s Greatest Forge, would you? Absolutely not, the Sifang City Lord’s cultivation is very high. If discovered, even Father couldn’t protect you.”

”Mind your own business from now on.” Hong Mingyue shook off his hand.

”Ming Yue, did you find another man? I heard you’ve been quite close with Lie Xuyang from the Fiery Sun Sect.” Luo Song’s face turned unsightly, feeling Hong Mingyue was becoming more eerie and elusive these days, avoiding him everywhere.

Some gossip had reached his ears.

Originally, he didn’t believe it, but this morning, when he went to find Hong Mingyue, he discovered the bedding in her room was cold. She didn’t stay in the guest room last night at all.

This discovery made Luo Song both jealous and hateful.

Unable to resist, he gripped Hong Mingyue’s shoulders tightly, his nails digging into her flesh, causing her pain and making her complexion worsen.

”So what if I’ve found another man? Luo Song, what qualifies you to interrogate me? Look at the ghostly state you’re in now. Compared to Lie Xuyang, even a street dog is hundred times better than you. Lie Xuyang is young and strong, practices the orthodox Pure Yang Technique, the pleasure he brings me far exceeds yours.”

Hong Mingyue flung Luo Song off with a casual brush of her hair.

Her eyebrows and eyes were filled with joy.

Luo Song stumbled, falling to the ground.

His current appearance was certainly inferior.

Previously, Luo Song, though not as handsome and dashing as Feng Xun or Zitang Su, was at least considered a talented Young Valley Master of Three-Life Valley.

But since getting engaged to Hong Mingyue, suffering from Yin Yang Replenishing of the Yang Boosting Technique, Luo Song quickly declined. His cultivation was nearing exhaustion.

Now he had shadows under his eyes, a thin face, looking like a bag of bones.

”Hong Mingyue, you admit it. I’ll kill you!”

Driven mad by love, Luo Song’s vicious Qi thickened like sludge between his brows, eyeing fiercely. He lunged up, gathering the last trace of Primordial Power in his hand, and aimed it at Hong Mingyue’s city-crushing face.

Hong Mingyue merely sneered coldly, thrusting forward with the Canghai Three-Life Flute, striking Luo Song in a vital spot.

Luo Song felt his organs ache violently, weakening as Hong Mingyue pinioned him under her hand.

”Despised one, you shall die horribly. If my father finds out how you did this to me, he will certainly make you...” Luo Song bragged even facing death. Hong Mingyue turned a deaf ear to his words, slamming the Jade Flute heavily against him, making Luo Song cry out in agony, vomiting blood from his mouth.

Hong Mingyue opened her palm, five jade-like fingers curling like eagle talons, clutching Luo Song’s top of the skull, feeding him an elixir pill.

Her eyes turned red, like a bloodthirsty mother beast.

From her fingertips, a steady stream of Primordial Power poured into Luo Song’s body through his temples and mouth, nose, and ears.

Luo Song’s curses gradually faded, his gaze turning dull.

Having absorbed most of Chen Hongru’s power, Hong Mingyue not only acquired a portion of his cultivation but also some of his memories.

Among them was Chen Hongru’s best Nine Stars Soul Searching Technique. Under its influence, Luo Song calmed down.

The last vestige of Primordial Power in him drained by Hong Mingyue, his eyes glazed over, waited beside her.

Under the effect of the Nine Stars Soul Searching Technique and the elixir pill, Luo Song has become an intermediate elixir puppet.

”Luo Song, go quickly to Luo Sansheng and find the Rebirth Song.”

To Luo Song, Hong Mingyue’s sweet voice was like an Imperial Decree, he agreed, promptly heading to find Luo Sansheng.

A proud smile broke on Hong Mingyue’s delicate face.

Once she obtained the complete Three-Life Song, she’d find a way to make Luo Sansheng her elixir puppet too. Along with Lie Xuyang, soon enough, not just Three-Life Valley but the entire Nine Sects would be in Hong Mingyue’s hands.

Clap clap clap—

In the midst of Hong Mingyue’s delight, she heard clapping behind her.

Her heart tensed, turning around to see a middle-aged man step forward.

Beside him stood Housekeeper Qin of the City Lord’s Mansion.

Had she been discovered doing everything?

Alarm seized Hong Mingyue’s heart, her eyes flashed with severity as she dashed forward, fingers poised like a sharp sword, went directly for the man’s throat.
