âBratâIâ A thunderous roar came from the Sky room, as if a muffled thunder had suddenly exploded in the dark night. There were not many guests in the inn, but almost everyone was shocked by this commotion, except⦠Yu Wan and the others.
The few of them looked coldly in the direction of the Sky room without even lifting their eyelids.
It was not that the customers in the Sky Room were not powerful enough, but after seeing the battle between the Rakshasa King and the patriarch, this deterrence was not enough to arouse their fear.
He originally thought that his angry roar could scare the group of girls and boys below who had never seen the world until they trembled. Who knew that⦠no one gave him face?
The cloaked man could not help but feel that he had been greatly humiliated. âGo and kill them!â n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
With his order, five experts in gray flew down from the window. There was actually a Rakshasa among them. Although he was not a Blood Rakshasa, his strength could not be underestimated.
âWho is this? Why does he have so many experts?â Zhou Yuyan only hated that Liang person for plotting against her. Otherwise, she would have drawn her sword and rushed up.
Shadow Six and Shadow Thirteen drew their swords and attacked. Four of the five experts were stopped by them. Another fish that escaped the net ran towards Zhou Jin. In no sooner said than done, Yu Wanâs eyes turned cold. A powerful Saint Kingâs pressure burst out like water waves and slammed into the Rakshasa. With a scream, the Rakshasa fell.
When the four experts heard Rakshasaâs scream, they paused for a moment. In the blink of an eye, Shadow Six and Shadow Thirteen seized the opportunity and quickly dealt with the dead.
A battle that had ended before it even started stunned the cloaked man in the Sky Room.
âWho are you?â He was asking Yu Wan. At that moment, he had clearly sensed the aura of the Sacred Clan, but it was even stronger than any Sacred Clan member he had ever seen.
âI said before that I donât like to raise my head to talk to people,â Yu Wan said indifferently. A Saint Kingâs pressure pressed down on the Sky Room. The window lintel in the Sky Room exploded, and a black shadow was shaken down, falling onto the grass in the backyard.
Yu Wan exclaimed in her heart. Her Saintess bloodline seemed to be getting stronger and stronger. She was indeed the strongest Saintess in the history of the Lan Clan!
Yan Xiaosi somersaulted in the stomach.
The innâs shopkeeper and waiter had long heard the commotion in the backyard, but they did not have the guts to come and watch the commotion.
The cloaked man fell in a sorry state. Just as he was about to get up, Shadow Thirteen pressed his sword against his neck.
The cloaked man was about to use black sorcery again. Zhou Jinâs cold eyes tightened, and a powerful sorcery power stabbed into his eyes like lightning. He screamed and raised his hand to cover his stinging eyes.
The light sorcerers might not be good at fighting, but they were definitely the most difficult opponents for the dark sorcerers.
Sorcerer Liang originally thought that Yu Wan and the others were not a match for this lord, but in the end, this lord became their prisoner. How could this be? What were their identities? Why were they so powerful?
And that woman, she had actually erupted with such a powerful holy aura just now.
âYou⦠youâre spies from the Saint Clan!â Sorcerer Liang shouted.
âStop pretending. We donât know who the spy is yet, right, Mu Ting?â Yu Wan smiled faintly at Mu Ting, who had long been petrified.
Mu Ting heard his name and turned around. âHuh?â
Yu Wan said indifferently, âDo you still want to pretend? Didnât you sell Zhou Jin to them?â
âSenior Brotherâ¦â Zhou Yuyan looked at Mu Ting.
Mu Tingâs eyes flashed.
Not only did Zhou Yuyan see this guilty look, but Mu Qing also saw it. Mu Qing, who was about to explain for Mu Ting if this was a misunderstanding, instantly fell silent.
âIs it really you? How could you betray us?â Zhou Yuyan was furious, but the effect of the cartilage powder had yet to wear off. She could not lift her whip, so she could only grab a handful of sand and weakly throw it at Mu Tingyang.
This sand only landed on the hem of Mu Tingâs clothes, but it burned into the bottom of his heart. He pinched his fingers and said shamefully and stubbornly, âI⦠Iâm doing this for your own good⦠Their background is unknown and their motives are extraordinary. If we follow them, everyone will be dragged down!â
Zhou Yuyan said with heartache, âBut they saved us! Without them, we would have already died at the hands of the Sacred Clan!â
âThe Sacred Clan wonât kill us. Theyâll only take Junior Brotherâ¦â Mu Ting suddenly stopped mid-sentence.
Yu Wan raised her eyebrows. âYo, you let it slip, right? What will the Sacred Clan do to your junior brother? Go to the Sorcerer Clan to make a deal? Tsk, tsk, tsk. You actually hid such an important thing from us. Who exactly has ill intentions?â
âI just overheard it!â Mu Ting roared. His words didnât make sense. Perhaps he didnât understand why he retorted.
Yu Wan said, âNot only do you know your junior brotherâs background, but you also know that selling him to the Sorcerer Clan can bring you a lot of benefits. In my opinion, youâve been planning to sell Zhou Jin to the Sorcerer Clan from the beginning! â
âI didnât!â Mu Ting said with reddened eyes.
He really didnât. How could he be willing to hurt his junior brother? He had no choice but to go to the Sorcerer Clan. The Sacred Clan of the Jade Nation was rampant, and the sorcerers could no longer live. As for his junior brotherâs background, yes, he knew and understood that the Sorcerer Clan was a tigerâs den, but there was no way out, right? When they went to the Sorcerer Clan, they had to be careful not to let their junior brother be discovered. Perhaps they could survive incognito!
What ifâ¦
Of course, he was saying what if. There would really be a day when he had to make a choice.
Mu Ting clenched his fists.
Yu Wan shook her head. âNot only are you stupid, but you also have ill intentions. Iâve decided to let the matter about the deserted island go for Mu
Qingâs sake. There wonât be a second time.â
âDeserted island⦠what is it?â Mu Qing asked in a daze.
Yu Wan glanced at Mu Ting and said, âHe didnât know that there was Wei Xuan on the deserted island. He only thought that there was a dark sorcerer living on the deserted island, so he deliberately lured all of us to our deaths.â Mu Qing looked at Mu Ting in disbelief. âIs this true, Senior Brother?â
Mu Tingâs nails almost dug into his flesh.
Mu Qing muttered, âNo wonder you had such a big reaction and even followed them when they said they wanted to bring Junior Brother down. You knew that⦠this trip was dangerous⦠You overestimated yourself. Do you think you can protect Junior Brother and Junior Sister from the dark sorcerer with your little strength? You chose to keep quiet in order not to expose your lie after seeing so many people tempting fate with you⦠Youâ¦â
Mu Qing was too disappointed. Was this still the cousin who had wandered the streets with him and was beaten up in order to snatch a steamed bun for him? Where did his cousin, who was ambitious and wanted to grow into an indomitable man, go? He had become malicious, sinister, and unscrupulous!
Mu Qing turned his face away, his eyes red. Zhou Yuyanâs heart ached so much that she cried.
The people who hurt themselves the most were often not enemies, but their closest family.
Yu Wan touched her bulging stomach and said, âYou can leave. Donât follow us anymore.â
Mu Ting looked at her with reddened eyes.
âLetâs go!â Sorcerer Liang tugged at his sleeve, indicating for him to help the cloaked man up.
Yu Wan said coldly, âI only let him go. When did I let you go?â
âYouâ¦â When Sorcerer Liang saw that Yu Wan was clearly going to deal with him and the lord ruthlessly, his face immediately darkened.â Do you know who this lord is?â
Yu Wan raised her eyebrows and said, âI donât care who he is. Even if the King of the Sorcerer Clan comes, he has to stay obediently!â
The cloaked man gritted his teeth and said, âGirl! How arrogant!â
Where did you come from? Why did you capture Zhou Jin? How much do you know about Zhou Jinâs background?â
Sorcerer Liang looked at the cloaked man at the side. Obviously, Sorcerer Liang did not know Zhou Jinâs background very well. He only knew that he was very important to His Excellency and His Excellency wanted to capture him.
Yu Wan looked at him. âIf you donât say it, Iâll kill you. If I have the guts to kill you, Iâm naturally not afraid of revenge.â
Shadow Thirteen cooperated very well and pressed his sword against the cloaked manâs neck. The sword cut through his skin, and blood instantly seeped out of his neck. How could there be anyone in this world who wasnât afraid of death? The cloaked man struggled for a while and finally said in humiliation, ââ¦Weâre from the black market.â
âWhatâs the black market?â Yu Wan asked.
The cloaked man said, âThe black market is a faction between the Sorcerer Clan and the Sacred Clan. Among them, our Dark Hall is the strongest. Someone paid a high price for that childâs life in the black market, but if heâs alive, heâs worth more than dead. If heâs alive, we can get ten times the bounty.â âWho is the buyer?â Yu Wan asked.
The cloaked man said, âIâm not sure. I only know that itâs from the Sorcerer Clan. I havenât asked about its background. Our Dark Hall is only concerned with business and doesnât ask about our employerâs background.â
Yu Wan touched her chin. âIf we catch him, how are you going to hand him over?â
The cloaked man said, âThat person comes to the black market on the fifteenth of every month. Itâs the fifteenth in three days. I originally planned to rush back before thatâ¦â
Yu Wan nodded. âAlright, itâs decided!â
The cloaked man was stunned.. What did she decide on?
