Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend

Chapter 1346: Chapter 406: Turmoil in Shui City

It turns out that since Hong Mingyue merged with the Ghost Valley Moth, her demonic power has surged, and she is now gradually transforming into a half-demon.

Originally, she already possessed Reincarnation Five Paths cultivation, and after half-demonization, her strength surged significantly.

Between Hong Mingyue’s fingers, ten hooks formed, gleaming with a ghostly green light.

With a whoosh, ten sharp green lights flashed, and the water python was severed into multiple segments.

Luo Qianche was shocked, and as she retreated swiftly, Hong Mingyue was already upon her, smiling sweetly as she suddenly opened her mouth and bit towards Luo Qianche’s neck.

”Bind!” Shadow Concubine suddenly commanded Hong Mingyue at the critical moment.

Hong Mingyue’s body paused, and her shadow was already trapped by a mysterious demonic power.

Hong Mingyue’s eyes flickered slightly, surprised that this Shadow Concubine’s sorcery could use shadows to bind her form.

It seems that the Sky Demons of the Demon World are stronger than the Human Realm’s Small Divine Power Realm experts.

However, Hong Mingyue did not know that the status of the Sky Demons in the Demon World was akin to the nobles of Qing Province Continent.

But the current Sky Demons, including Shadow Concubine, are not like the Sky Demons from the most prosperous era of the Demon World. They were newly selected Sky Demons after Zhan Hen and Empress Xiyuan’s division of the Demon God Guard.

Most of this batch of Sky Demons possess unique sorcery and can handle even Human Clan experts from the Divine Power Realm.

The new generation of Sky Demons, apart from their cultivation, often receive the highest resources from their clan. Every Demon Clan takes pride in having Sky Demons within their ranks.

Once a Sky Demon is conferred by the Demon Emperor, they receive a special inheritance of sorcery, some of which were left behind from Ancient Times.

Shadow Concubine’s special sorcery originated from this.

Therefore, this time Zhan Hen dispatched Shadow Concubine to infiltrate Shui City, intending to capture Hong Mingyue and others all at once during the City Lord Meeting.

”Lord Shadow Concubine, why won’t you let me devour Luo Qianche?”

Bound in form, Hong Mingyue could only reluctantly watch as Shadow Concubine ordered the guards to escort Luo Qianche and others away.

Luo Qianche possesses the Water God Bloodline and now the Merfolk Elixir. Getting her flesh and blood would undoubtedly greatly benefit Hong Mingyue’s cultivation; she was eager to feast on it.

”She still has some uses, besides she possesses the Water God Bloodline; if we bring her back to the Demon World, the Demon Emperor and Demon Empress will undoubtedly reward us generously.”

Shadow Concubine saw through Hong Mingyue’s ambition.

Hong Mingyue’s talent in the Human Clan is considered outstanding, and her ambition is huge; such a person can stand out even within the Demon Clan.

Shadow Concubine had chosen her originally for this reason, but seeing Hong Mingyue’s strength greatly increase in her half-demonized state, Shadow Concubine was somewhat wary.

It seems that Hong Mingyue also needs to be carefully guarded against.

Both women harbored their sinister plots; at this time, a guard walked in.

Shadow Concubine, having taken over the City Lord’s Mansion, had already secretly replaced the guards with demons, making the entire City Lord’s Mansion under the Demon Clan’s control.

”Reporting to Lord Shadow Concubine, the brothers sent to assassinate Ye Lingyue and others failed; none returned.”

The demon soldier whispered in Shadow Concubine’s ear.

”Failed again? This is already the third group sent out, isn’t it?”

Shadow Concubine looked displeased.

She had always been thorough in her actions. After Jiang Ce returned and informed her of the events in Yuliao Town, she had a plan.

On one hand, she maneuvered under Luo Qian’s guise to negotiate with several City Lords, successfully capturing them.

On the other hand, Shadow Concubine secretly sent people to hunt Ye Lingyue and others.

She thought everything would proceed smoothly, not expecting that while the City Lords were caught like fish in a barrel, the little City Lord of Huangquan City proved to be stubborn and seemed impossible to capture.

”Lord Shadow Concubine, do not underestimate Ye Lingyue. This woman, even though she seems devoid of any Power of Reincarnation, is very cunning; I suspect she hides some secret magic treasures on her. Besides, the man beside Ye Lingyue, called Di Shen, is also extraordinary.”

Hong Mingyue listened, her eyes turning cold upon hearing Ye Lingyue wasn’t dead.

”No matter how formidable they are, they are mere humans. I refuse to believe that with my means, I can’t handle a few humans. Proceed according to the plan.”

Shadow Concubine remained indifferent.

In her view, having Ancient Demon Techniques at her disposal, there was no worry about dealing with a few annoying human novices.

Saying this, Shadow Concubine held several City Seals in her hand.

Having captured the City Lords meant controlling the nine new cities.

But this was just the beginning; the Demon Emperor and Demon Empress’s plan extended far beyond controlling a few new cities.

After all, the new cities of Ancient Nine Provinces were inferior in population and strength to other regular cities of Jiu Provinces.

She intended to use these City Seals to infiltrate Jiu Provinces Alliance as the City Lords.

Only by controlling Jiu Provinces Alliance would the invasion of the Demon World truly start...

However, before that, she needed to deal with Ye Lingyue and her group of pesky little figures first.

”Lord Shadow Concubine, I have an idea that might help you smoothly resolve Ye Lingyue’s group.”

Hong Mingyue indeed intended to make a contribution.

She was eager for Ye Lingyue to be eradicated sooner.

”Oh, let’s hear it.”

Shadow Concubine had already sent three groups; among them were demons at the Great Demon Level, and they were her generals, yet they still couldn’t handle Ye Lingyue, which made Shadow Concubine somewhat impatient.

”Ye Lingyue and Di Shen have unfathomable strength, but not everyone in their group is a master. I suggest we abduct a few of them, and then use them to restrain Ye Lingyue and Di Shen. Lord, if you trust me, Mingyue is willing to do whatever it takes.”

Hong Mingyue, being from Lonely Moon Sea herself, was well acquainted with Huang Jun, Qin Xiaochuan, and Senior Sister Wan Yun’s strength and Martial Arts styles.

”Then I’ll leave it to you; you can manage manpower as you see fit.”

Shadow Concubine agreed to Hong Mingyue’s offer.

That night, Hong Mingyue led a dozen demon soldiers and left Shui City.

Hong Mingyue rushed day and night, and upon reaching the area between Shui City and Yuliao Town, she finally encountered Ye Lingyue and others.

On a secluded forest path, Hong Mingyue and her group spotted the party of Ye Lingyue and Di Shen.

Everyone was traveling through the night, and during their return, they had been attacked three times.

Day after night, although they managed to drive away the enemies, they appeared somewhat fatigued.

”I’m really exhausted; we’ve been traveling for days, the sun is shining hard, it’s scorching, I need to rest.”

The dancer named Guangzi covered her face with a scarf, her face reddened, looking like she would faint.

”Guangzi, we’ve been ambushed all along this journey; those people must be Luo Qian’s men. I think Jiang Ce returned to Shui City and informed Luo Qian of the events at Yuliao Town, and now they want to kill us to keep the secret. We can’t afford to delay on the road.”

Ye Lingyue pulled her horse to stop and earnestly advised Guangzi.
