Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend

Chapter 1387: Chapter 447: Not Her

Hong Mingyue was unsure of the relationship between Ye Lingyue and Xi Jiuye, but based on the fact that Ye Lingyue and the Northern Territory Female War God looked nearly identical, Hong Mingyue concluded that there must be a connection, and Ye Lingyue might be a descendant of the Northern Territory Female War God.

However, Hong Mingyue never suspected that the Northern Territory Female War God was Ye Lingyue.

After all, that Female War God lived hundreds of years ago.

Hong Mingyue was not worried that Hong Yulang would fail to find Xi Jiuye, or that Xi Jiuye would recognize Ye Lingyue.

Firstly, she heard from the South Nether Empress that Xi Jiuye was very proud; even after arriving in the Human Realm, he wouldn’t hide his identity. As Hong Mingyue was new to Xuanwu City, unfamiliar with the surroundings, she was sure to find him through Hong Yulang.

Secondly, Ye Lingyue had constantly changed her appearance after arriving at the Ancient Nine Provinces, which inadvertently helped Hong Mingyue.

Hong Yulang promised Hong Mingyue to keep an eye on the city gates these days, and to immediately contact Hong Mingyue if a man with the surname Xi entered Xuanwu City.

As it happened, shortly after Hong Yulang gave the instructions, the Half-Beast Guards sent word that the Third Young Master Jin had brought someone named Xi Jiuye into the city.

Hong Yulang immediately notified Hong Mingyue, though he didn’t expect it to be under such circumstances.

”Sister, this Xi Jiuye is with the Third Young Master Jin; the Third Young Master Jin isn’t someone easy to deal with. What do you want with him?”

After arriving at the Red Sleeve Pavilion, Hong Yulang found out that Young Master Yu of the City Lord’s Mansion was visiting. The brothel keep was fawning and eager, giving them a room directly facing the entrance, allowing them to see Xi Jiuye as he entered.

Due to the Jiu Provinces Hunting, Xuanwu City was overcrowded, and business at the Red Sleeve Pavilion was booming.

When Xi Jiuye entered, the Thirteen Riders were in front, blocking Xi Jiuye.

”Brother, don’t ask questions about this. When the time is right, I’ll naturally tell you. They’re coming, quiet.”

From the half-open window, a tall figure was approaching.

Curious, Hong Mingyue and Hong Yulang sneaked to the window and peeked outside through a crack.

”Is he the Divine Master of the Northern Territory?”

Seeing Xi Jiuye, both Hong Mingyue and Hong Yulang displayed expressions of surprise.

Hong Yulang gritted his teeth in frustration; first, there was Di Shen, now Xi Jiuye.

Hong Mingyue was taken aback.

Given the orders from the South Nether Empress, she had been anxious, fearing Xi Jiuye might be an ugly old man, but upon seeing him...

This Divine Master of the Northern Territory was beyond her imagination... Compared to Hong Yulang, Di Shen, and Zitang Su, Xi Jiuye’s appearance was of a completely different type.

His features were much more striking than Hong Yulang’s but somewhat less appealing than Di Shen and Zitang Su.

However, an indifferent aura, honey-colored skin indicative of years on the battlefield, and a solitary, chilling vibe naturally evoked a desire for conquest in a woman like Hong Mingyue, causing her heart to race.

Heart racing?

How could she feel moved?

Suddenly wide awake, Hong Mingyue’s heart had been set on Zitang Su long ago.

She had to admit, if not for her heart already belonging to the Banished Immortal-like Zitang Su, she would undoubtedly be attracted to Xi Jiuye.

But undeniably, this Divine Master of the Northern Territory possessed a deadly allure.

While engrossed in thought, Xi Jiuye, already on the stairs, suddenly furrowed his brows, sensing a probing gaze.

With a cold snort, a ten-foot radius of domineering Primordial Power transformed into a finger wind, suddenly pointing toward the window.

The well-crafted window burst apart like paper.

Hong Mingyue screamed, her throat already captured by an iron palm.

Her opponent’s quick move left Hong Mingyue defenseless.

How could he be so fast? This man didn’t resemble a Divine Master; he was more like an assassin.

Cold sweat dripped down Hong Mingyue’s forehead.

Xi Jiuye’s presence reminded her of the past Ghost Emperor Wu Chong.

Not in appearance, but in manner of attack.

Both used lethal moves, striking decisively.

”What are you doing? Let go of me! Do you know who I am?”

Hong Yulang was also restrain by one of the Thirteen Riders, cursing from his mouth.

Yet, with a firm grip, Hong Yulang was immobilized.

”You’re hurting me, sir.”

Hong Mingyue’s voice was weak, showing an appearance of pitiful vulnerability.

Upon seeing Hong Mingyue’s face, Xi Jiuye’s expression changed abruptly.

”You?”

He stared at Hong Mingyue, momentarily shocked.

How could she resemble her so closely? This woman and... he was somewhat lost, but upon looking into Hong Mingyue’s eyes and observing her demeanor, Xi Jiuye’s astonishment quickly vanished.

She wasn’t Ye Lingyue; Ye Lingyue would never show such an expression. She, with her intelligence and calmness, was unlike any woman, but never displayed this kind of demeanor.

Hong Mingyue noticed Xi Jiuye initially staring at her, the pressure on her neck easing, and secretly rejoiced, assuming Xi Jiuye had taken the bait, not expecting him to fall for it so easily.

”Whore.”

Realizing what the Red Sleeve Pavilion was, and seeing the woman here with a young man in a private room, what else could she be but a whore?

He reacted as if he had touched something dirty, instantly releasing Hong Mingyue without any sign of pity.

”You!”

Thrown to the ground, Hong Mingyue was infuriated by Xi Jiuye insulting her as a whore.

”Oh, dear, what’s going on here? Let go of Young Master Yu.”

The brothel keep followed behind, yet before she could see what happened, she saw a window destroyed and Young Master Yu, the City Lord’s concubine, pinned to the ground. Frightened, she rushed forward to calm the situation.

The commotion from below was loud enough to be heard upstairs.

”What’s all this noise?”

At this moment, the Third Young Master Jin and Yue Mubai heard the sounds from downstairs and came down.

Seeing Xi Jiuye and Hong Yulang, they were also surprised.

”Isn’t that Young Master Yu? Brother Xi, let them go; we’re all on the same side. Don’t ruin the harmony over a whore.”

Recognizing Hong Yulang, the Third Young Master Jin spoke. Considering the connection between the Jin family and City Lord Ma, the Third Young Master Jin hurriedly asked Xi Jiuye to release them.

He thought Xi Jiuye and Hong Yulang were fighting over a woman.

As even the Third Young Master Jin called her a whore, Hong Mingyue almost spat blood in anger. Just then, she caught sight of Yue Mubai and hurriedly called out.

”Master Yue, it’s Mingyue.”
