Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend

Chapter 1332: Chapter 392: Ancient Creatures

The woman who sings?

Ye Lingyue and Di Shen both felt puzzled.

How could a woman suddenly appear? Wasn’t it said that the Resentful Qi was related to the Water Ghosts of the Moli Sea?

Could it be that the Water Ghost is actually a woman?

”Huang Jun, think harder. What characteristic does the woman’s voice have, and what song is she singing? I suspect that woman is connected to the Water Ghosts of Moli Sea, and she is the source of the Resentful Qi.” Ye Lingyue and Di Shen had searched with the Mayor but had yet to find the source of the Resentful Qi.

They hadn’t ruled out the possibility that the source of the Resentful Qi might be at the junction of Moli Sea and Han River.

But that domain is vast and boundless. If we search, it might take a month without any result.

By then, the entire Yuliao Town might have turned into a ghost town.

”Speaking of which, the song is quite pleasant. I remember it even now... It seemed like ’Gently Moli, flows east into the sea...’

Just as Huang Jun tried to think more, someone grabbed his shoulder.

”What did you say? The woman is singing, she is singing the ’Merfolk Song’?”

Behind him stood the Merfolk King, visibly agitated.

He had just heard the conversation between Huang Jun and Ye Lingyue.

”Merfolk King, please let go, you’re crushing my bones. I don’t know about the Merfolk Song, but those were the lines the woman sang.”

Huang Jun grimaced.

”Merfolk King, do you know something?”

Ye Lingyue observed the Merfolk King’s expression.

Since arriving at Yuliao Town, Ye Lingyue found the Merfolk King’s conduct quite peculiar.

”City Lord Ye, I know nothing. I just happened to hear this young fellow mention the Merfolk Song, and lost my composure for a moment, please forgive me.”

The Merfolk King released Huang Jun, shaking his head.

”No, you must know something. Merfolk King, Han River and Moli Sea are your domain. You’re familiar with this area, it’s impossible you don’t know about the Resentful Qi. Since you came to Yuliao Town, you’ve been visibly distracted, even though Luo Qianche didn’t notice, I have. Now Yuliao Town is in dire straits, if you know something, you must inform me.”

Ye Lingyue stared directly at the Merfolk King.

Pain flickered in the Merfolk King’s blue eyes; he opened and closed his mouth but couldn’t say a word.

”I’m sorry, I know nothing. I’ve left Moli Sea Domain for a long time and have become unfamiliar with everything there.”

After speaking, the Merfolk King closed his mouth tightly, clearly unwilling to say more.

Seeing the Merfolk King’s obstinacy, Ye Lingyue and Di Shen could only shake their heads helplessly.

At this time, Guangzi walked in from outside.

Upon seeing Di Shen, he subconsciously took a few steps back.

The events from last night cast a massive shadow over Guangzi, especially after learning Di Shen’s true identity as the founder of the Demon God Guard.

Every time he sees Di Shen now, he feels the urge to run away.

”Guangzi, you’re back. Senior Brother Xiao Chuan was looking for you all night, he went to the boat to find you just now.”

Seeing Guangzi, Ye Lingyue called out to him.

Noticing Ye Lingyue’s unchanged attitude, Guangzi glanced at Di Shen, who darted him a warning look.

Their eyes met briefly, and in an instant, Guangzi understood Di Shen’s intent.

For the first time, he and Di Shen reached an agreement, deciding temporarily not to tell Ye Lingyue about last night’s events, including her background and Xi Jiuye’s arrival in the Ancient Nine Provinces.

Simply because they both wanted to spare Ye Lingyue from recalling painful memories.

”Last night, I was bored and went out for a walk. Huang Jun, glad to see you, I was worried about you for a long time.”

Guangzi walked over with a relaxed demeanor.

”Something bad happened.”

Qin Xiaochuan dashed in like a whirlwind, lighting up upon seeing Guangzi.

”Miss Guangzi, I finally found you. Last night, I was worried you were in trouble, scared me to death.”

”Who asked you to worry about me, you unreliable oaf.”

Guangzi retorted with irritation.

If he had waited for this big fool to rescue him, he would have been subjected to Luo Qianche’s cruel grasp countless times.

”Fourth Brother, what did you just say is the big news?”

Upon seeing Qin Xiaochuan, Di Shen felt a headache, wondering what trouble Fourth Brother would cause when he finds out Guangzi is actually male.

”Oh, I almost forgot. I intended to go to the boat to find Guangzi but discovered that Luo Qianche took the Mayor and thirty to forty townsfolk onto a ship, and headed out to sea.”

When Qin Xiaochuan arrived, the ship had already left the dock, unable to catch up, he returned to inform Ye Lingyue and the others.

”Out to sea? That’s madness! How can you sail at a time like this!”

Upon hearing this, the Merfolk King’s face changed.

He grew up watching Luo Qianche, understanding her temperament clearly.

Luo Qianche, proud by nature, was unwilling to accept being outdone by Ye Lingyue. Her choice to go to sea now had only one possibility: to find the source of the Resentful Qi and track the Water Ghosts before Ye Lingyue.

But how could she alone capture the Water Ghosts, and worse yet, she involved the innocent Mayor and other townsfolk.

The Merfolk King turned to leave.

”Merfolk King, wait. We’ll go with you.”

Ye Lingyue called to the Merfolk King.

”No, I can go alone.”

The Merfolk King flipped over and jumped into the Han River Basin. As the king of the ocean, he vanished into the turbulent waves of Han River in no time.

”Really stubborn, how can he alone deal with the Water Ghosts.”

Ye Lingyue gritted her teeth in frustration.

”That Luo Qianche is too reckless this time. Competitiveness must have limits, she’s risking countless lives for nothing.”

Guangzi was full of sympathy.

”Prepare the ships, we’re going after them.”

Ye Lingyue mused for a moment before making a resolute decision.

Setting out to find the Resentful Qi is imperative, yet Luo Qianche’s impulsive act hastened the plan.

”Set sail? But Ling Yue, most of the experienced local fishermen have become Ghost Children. Even the few townsfolk who know the sea routes have been taken by Luo Qianche. If we set sail, we’re likely to lose direction.”

Di Shen glanced at the boundless Han River Basin.

On land, he might rely on the Primordial Power’s fluctuations to find Luo Qianche and the others, but at sea, it’s difficult.

”No, I might have a way to track the whereabouts of Luo Qianche and the others.” Ye Lingyue said resolutely.
