But after so many years, he didnât ask Xia Yi to return the favor, only making an exception for Muyan this time.
Ru Yan kneels on the ground, her voice is trembling as she sobs, âI wanted to protect Miss Jun, but I am too incompetent that in fact, Iâm unable to do anything for her. If honored Sir really must enforce a punishment, please punish me instead, since Miss Jun entered the Ghost City because she accepted my invitation. However, please sire, please let off the lives of the innocent people in Ghost City.â
Han Ye determines that Old Tao and Ru Yanâs intentions are sincere, so his expression looks much better. He turns back to look at Di Ming Jue.
But Di Ming Jue doesnât even send a glance to these few people, as he turns to leave with the sleeping Muyan.
While heâs unprepared, the other figure is already quite a distance away.
Looking at the manâs straight and lofty silhouette disappearing, Xia Yi and the Ghost Envoys breath a sigh of relief.
Ru Yan and Old Tao suddenly slump down on the ground, like they obtained a new life after a calamity.
Han Ye doesnât leave right away, but he looks down upon everyone there, âConsidering the fact that two of you genuinely and sincerely wanted to save our Madam, I can open the net on one side*, and let off the rest of you. However, if thereâs another incident where anyone from the Ghost City dares to be disrespectful to our Madam, hehe... you should know what will happen.â
give oneâs opponent a way out.
Everyone who heard these words immediate go wild with joy. Each one of them swear to never act against Muyan again, and if they see Jun Muyan in the future, they will definitely treat her like their ancestors â in no way will they dare to show the slightest neglect.
Han Ye nods his head in satisfaction at this, then his line of sight falls on Xia Yi. A mocking smile appears on his face.
âI really didnât expect that after a millennium, Ghost City has actually fallen to this degree. Can it only rely on usurpations in order to stay afloat? What a disgrace!â
Hearing this, Xia Yi lifts his head up, an astonished expression on his face: âWhat does Sir mean by these words?â
Han Yeâs sneer slowly disappears, his face turning expressionless: âGo back and tell [Gu Yue], that within a month, he will have to explain himself in front of Jun Shang; and give a clear account of the matter about the Madam being injured today. Otherwise, he should be prepared to disappear forever.â
Xia Yi snaps his eyes wide open, his body suddenly springs up and he cries: âWho-who are you in the end?!â
Han Ye no longer pays him any mind, but chuckles derisively and turns away. His figure quickly going into the distance.
Xia Yi dazedly looks toward his departing back, only returning to his senses after a long time.
Old Tao couldnât help but whisper: âGhost King, whatâs going on? Who are those two?â
Xia Yi is silent for a long time. Then he secretly mumbles to himself: âGu Yue, the one with the highest position within the Ghost City, the name of the Ghost Emperor. Except for the Ghost Kings, no one else should know.â
Then why? Why does that man know?
He wants the Ghost Emperor to appear before Jun Shang within a month. Again... what does that mean?
Xia Yi abruptly turns around, ignoring the questions from Old Tao and the others, and quickly leaves.
He must report this news to the Ghost Emperor right away.
Xia Yi has an intuition that maybe, the skies of the Ghost City will change!
âGongzi can rest assured, your lady doesnât have anything serious, just... just excessive use of Internal Force and physical overexertion â so she collapsed. As long as she rests for several days, and eat proper meals, sheâll definitely... fully recover.â
Under Di Ming Jueâs cold gaze, the doctor stammeringly finishes stating his diagnosis.
As Han Ye smiles and invites him out so they can settle the consultation fee, the doctor immediately goes out in a hurry, like he received some sort of amnesty.
Inside the room, only Di Ming Jue and a still-sleeping Muyan are left behind.
