Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend

Chapter 930: Chapter 799: Mutation in the Space

As the first ray of morning sunlight entered the room, Ye Lingyue’s eyelashes quivered slightly, and she opened her eyes.

She hadn’t slept so well in ages.

In this bedroom filled with the aura of Feng Xun, her heart was exceptionally calm.

Ye Lingyue got up, feeling a bit uneasy, and went to check on Little Wuya and Little Zhiyo; both were sleeping soundly.

Not wanting to disturb them, she stepped out.

The courtyard in the morning was shrouded in a thin, veil-like mist.

In the distance, she could hear shouts from morning exercises.

It was likely the Ye Family’s disciples engaged in martial arts training in the practice field.

Ye Lingyue jogged a few laps around the courtyard, worked up a sweat, and then consumed some Gathering Essence Liquid.

Time seemed to have suddenly taken her back to her days in Qiufeng Town.

Back then, she was single-mindedly focused on mastering martial arts, hoping to avenge herself and her mother one day.

Two years had passed.

The Hong Residence was destroyed, and she had become Daxia’s first female lord, yet these past events now felt unfamiliar to her.

As Ye Lingyue pondered, she suddenly remembered she hadn’t visited Hong Meng Heaven in quite some time.

Nowadays, Hong Meng Heaven wasn’t like before, where it could be left to run its own course, as it still housed a large group of Three-legged Birdmen.

The existence of the Three-legged Birdmen also reminded Ye Lingyue that she was no longer a lone soul.

With a thought, Ye Lingyue entered Hong Meng Heaven.

Expecting to see a harmonious scene as before, she was surprised to find something amiss upon entering this time.

The Three-legged Birdmen, who used to gather in threes or fives on the open grounds of Hong Meng Heaven, were nowhere to be seen.

The huts, once repaired under Batu’s leadership, were all tightly shut.

Walking a bit further, Ye Lingyue saw a few fully armed Three-legged Birdmen patrolling around.

Seeing Ye Lingyue, these Birdmen showed expressions of delight.

”Queen, you’ve finally arrived.”

The Birdmen, with somewhat clumsy language and gestures, hurriedly led Ye Lingyue toward one of the huts.

Upon entering, Ye Lingyue saw Batu bandaged and groaning on the bed.

One side of his wing was already broken, with multiple fractures across his body.

Seeing this, Ye Lingyue was shocked.

Batu was injured, and to think that Hong Meng Heaven was supposed to be completely sealed and absolutely safe for the Three-legged Birdmen.

She hurried to treat Batu.

The Three-legged Birdmen tribe had no real doctors; after Batu was injured, he was only treated with simple medicinal grass, with his serious injuries remaining unhealed.

After Ye Lingyue’s treatment, Batu looked much better, and his consciousness became clearer.

It was only then that Ye Lingyue felt at ease to inquire about the cause of his injuries.

With her questioning, Ye Lingyue learned that over the past month, while she was in Sifang City participating in the World’s First Refining, something strange happened in Hong Meng Heaven.

After Hong Meng Heaven absorbed the Fire Spirit and Earth Spirit, it expanded further; not only did the open area increase significantly, but the length of Rainbow Creek also extended, even revealing some depressions and hills on its outer edges.

Due to her limited personal energy, Ye Lingyue naturally didn’t venture into these places; she simply entrusted Batu to lead the Three-legged Birdmen to cultivate the land.

Batu, being an honest individual, immediately selected groups of strong Three-legged Birdmen to develop the hills and river areas upon receiving the orders.

Initially, Batu made quite a few discoveries, finding small mineral mountains and some rare medicinal grass.

About ten days ago, Batu received a report from a tribesman about a spirit ore discovered deep within the hills.

Batu took the tribesman to excavate it.

However, upon reaching the hills, they were ambushed.

Several Three-legged Birdmen, including Batu himself, were seriously injured, and a few were directly taken away, their whereabouts still unknown.

”What? Are you saying there are unknown living spirits near the hills?”

Ye Lingyue was taken aback.

She thought Batu was injured due to internal conflicts among the Three-legged Birdmen, never imagining it was because of the living spirits in Hong Meng Heaven.

It wasn’t Ye Lingyue’s fault; after all, ever since acquiring Hong Meng Heaven, she believed it was an unspoiled frontier with no indigenous inhabitants besides her and Little Zhiyo.

But then she thought, when she first discovered Hong Meng Heaven, wasn’t Little Zhiyo already living here?

So, aside from Little Zhiyo, it’s possible there are other living spirits in Hong Meng Heaven.

”Batu, what kind of living spirit attacked you? Did you get a clear look?”

”Queen, it was an ambush on Batu. At that time, a thick fog suddenly rose in the hills. As I and a few subordinates walked a few steps, we were enveloped by the fog. In the mist, I felt a cold wind brush past, and something slammed into me from behind. I turned to look, but saw nothing. That thing had immense strength; I felt a few bones break in my body, and then I lost consciousness.”

Batu was lucky; he just broke a few bones and was rescued by some tribesmen.

But the Three-legged Birdmen tribespeople who went with him weren’t so fortunate.

Their whereabouts remain unknown to this day.

Later, a few courageous Three-legged Birdmen ventured into that hilly area, but without exception, they either disappeared suddenly or were found unconscious.

The oddest thing is that none of the attacked Birdmen saw the form of their attackers.

Over time, rumors spread among the Birdmen of demons and ghosts haunting the hills, and the spirit ore within the hills became regarded as ominous, with no one daring to approach it.

To prevent those malevolent spirits from causing trouble, the Birdmen ceased their daily activities, shutting themselves indoors.

After listening, Ye Lingyue fell into deep thought.

According to Batu, the living spirits in Hong Meng Heaven were quite strong.

Ye Lingyue considered this and called for Little Zhiyo, as he was more familiar with Hong Meng Heaven than she was.

Upon hearing that other living spirits had appeared in Hong Meng Heaven and had injured the Birdmen, Little Zhiyo shook with anger.

”Zhiyo~ (Boss, we should wipe that thing out; how dare it act up on our territory!)”

Little Zhiyo firmly believed that Hong Meng Heaven was his territory and was infuriated upon discovering other living spirits inhabiting it, especially when they were causing mischief.

Ye Lingyue agreed with Little Zhiyo’s approach and decided to bring Dahuang, Little Wuya, and Little Zhiyo with her. Guided by a Three-legged Birdman familiar with the hills, they set off in that direction.
