Help! The Villainess Trapped in the Beast World's Drama!

Chapter 1125: Chapter 812: The Dog Man Returns!

The man had a head full of golden hair cascading back, his features were deep-set and handsome, with skin so pale it was as if carved from flawless jade. His long and thick eyelashes cast shadows under which his deep blue eyes resembled the mysterious deep sea, like a sea monster on a midnight reef, akin to a soul-absorbing whirlpool. His nose was straight, and his lips were not overly thin, with a lustrous rosy hue, inviting one to taste the allure.

His physique has also shed its youthful innocence, becoming tall and imposing, clothed in a black gold Divine Robe, the long hem trailing like an endless galaxy flowing with his movements on the ground, adding a touch of divinity to his godlike beauty, yet his aura exudes a cold and dangerous wickedness!

The chaos intertwined with divinity and wickedness reveals a deadly allure!

Zhuang He, upon seeing the newcomer, asked curiously, ”What brings Your Excellency here?”

Liu Ye had been staying in the Divine Hall for some time, and the hall had always wanted to seize the chance to win him over, hoping he’d fully become a part of the Divine Hall, hence treating him as an honored guest, with the Holy Seats being deferential to him.

Yet Liu Ye’s attitude remained lukewarm, generally unwilling to involve himself in trivial matters, disregarding the Divine Hall’s affairs, even Zhuang He’s personal invitation couldn’t easily bring him out. Unexpectedly, he came of his own volition today.

It’s quite surprising indeed.

Liu Ye spoke plainly, ”I heard you captured that female.”

Of course, Zhuang He understood whom he referred to, and with an enlightened smile said, ”So Your Excellency came for this matter. We indeed caught that female, but we received word just now that she escaped from the dungeon.”

”We’ve sealed off the entire area and are fully engaged in recapturing her.”

”I will act with you.” Liu Ye narrowed his cold eyes, his voice carrying an icy cruelness, ”I will personally capture her!”

The third Holy Seat Zhuang He knows he harbors deep-seated hatred toward that female, wishing to handle her himself, naturally would not pass up this chance.

He didn’t refuse, promptly agreeing, ”Many thanks, that female is extremely cunning. With your aid, we’ll surely recapture her swiftly.”

Both parties promptly led teams to search.

Shen Tang became immediately tense, ”Liu Ye won’t discover me, will he?”

Though she had long returned Jia Lan’s Crystal Core, the lingering power had completely merged with her.

Liu Ye, that sly dog, was someone Shen Tang found unpredictable to deal with.

The system comforted her, [Host, rest assured, your strength is currently very formidable! With the system’s tools aiding you, that dog of a man can’t possibly detect your aura!]

[If he indeed discovered you, he’d surely come directly, there’s no need to cooperate with the Divine Hall’s people.]

”That makes sense indeed.”

Shen Tang breathed a sigh of relief.

Reason told her she should quickly seize this opportunity to leave.

Were it not for seeing Liu Ye, she’d indeed plan to do so, but after she saw him, she couldn’t just up and leave.

She had painstakingly found Liu Ye; she couldn’t let it go easily, she must do something.

Shen Tang had successfully retrieved Jia Lan’s consciousness last time; this time, she wants once again to reclaim his body!

The system sensed her thoughts and proclaimed in horror, [Host, this plan is far too dangerous! Liu Ye alone is difficult enough to handle, let alone the entire Divine Hall hunting you down, this is akin to a lamb entering a tiger’s den, walking into a trap!]

[Moreover, host, in the Space, you have those Blood Clan souls; should you get caught, they’ll be doomed too.]

Hearing this from the system, Shen Tang became hesitant again.

She wasn’t overly concerned for her own life, but she couldn’t drag down the Blood Clan.

The Blood Clan souls spoke in chorus:

”Benefactor need not worry for us; we Blood Clan have nothing left to lose.”

”In the prophecy, the revival of the Blood Clan lies within you, closely tied to your choices... You just need to follow your heart, and do what you believe is right.”

”The Blood Soul Jade is highly likely hidden within the Divine Hall; though wolves lurk around, the chances of finding the Blood Soul Jade are slightly greater here.”

Ying Zhao mused, ”That Mermaid Sea Emperor seems closely linked to you; the Divine Hall seems to trust him greatly. If Shen Royal Female could act as an intermediary through him, it might be much more convenient.”

Shen Tang actually shares similar thoughts.

If Liu Ye completely controlled the body, she’d have some apprehension, likely not risking it.

But after successfully awakening Jia Lan last time, she’s eager to know what ”his” current state is.

She wants to go and probe.

”He” is now Liu Ye, or Jia Lan.

If it’s Jia Lan, then it’ll be easier.

She might use his help to rescue Shu back, and seek the Blood Soul Jade, achieving two goals with one move.

Anyway, she has to give it a try.

The system nodded in agreement, [Without risking small losses, no large gains are won. If host truly intends to proceed, I will certainly do my utmost to assist! What does host plan next?]

”First, test the waters.”

Shen Tang stuck an Advanced Concealing Talisman onto herself, knocked a Divine Hall guard unconscious, stripped his clothes off and put them on, wore a mask, transformed her appearance, and sneaked alongside.

She still had a decrypted universal Identity Card, which shouldn’t be an issue short-term.

Along the way, Shen Tang indeed overheard many rumors.

A traitor emerged among the Holy Seats, the same traitor who was the spy that stole from the laboratory some time ago, causing an immense uproar!

It’s known that the Holy Seat selection process is extremely stringent, with layer upon layer of selection, requiring top-tier ability and absolute loyalty to Divine Power.

That traitor could hide for so many years, exploiting the authority of the Holy Seat for personal gain, only being discovered recently, which is incredible.

If a common Beastman dared betray the Divine Hall, they would be executed on the spot!

But that Holy Seat’s identity was unique, his ability outstanding, holding much critical information, the Divine Hall hadn’t executed him yet but instead confined him to a secret cell.

The location of which is unknown to anyone, no ordinary person can enter, only Holy Seats have the eligibility to enter.

Shen Tang felt deeply unsettled.

Shu was discovered while trying to save her; she must strive to rescue him.

Furthermore, she heard about Liu Ye’s recent circumstances.

Word was that the fourth Holy Seat of the Holy Temple had seemingly offended him not long ago and was killed by him on the spot, his methods extremely ruthless and cold, many Beastmen privately feared this Sea Emperor tremendously.

And in line with the Divine Hall tradition, he inherited the fourth Holy Seat’s status, also a stormy presence within the Hall, boasting high prestige and power.

Shen Tang spotted in the distance four or five young, pretty females gathered around, seemingly discussing something.

These females were also specifically cultivated in the laboratory.

But differing from those ordinary Deputies used as consumables, they were specially trained as spies.

Once passing training assessments, they’d be dispatched to various clans, forming relationships with male clan leaders and high-ranking members, even becoming partners and bearing offspring, slowly infiltrating various clans, turning them into Divine Hall’s lackeys.

Today all major Beast Clans maintain the Divine Hall’s rule; aside from mutual interests, a large reason is that many leaders and high-ranking members of the organizations are descendants of these undercover agents of the Divine Hall, working privately for it.
