Eliza noticed Estelleâs innocent reaction and teased with a smile, âWu Huang, your buddy is a virgin, right?â
Yu Huang also laughed and replied, âThen can you help him get laid?â
Eliza laughed even more heartily.
Seeing a beverage shop by the road, Eliza asked Yu Huang, âWant a drink?â
Yu Huang looked at the car parked by the roadside and said, âYou guys seem to be busy.â
âThereâs no hurry.â
âAlright.â Yu Huang followed behind Eliza with Estelle and sat under the umbrella outside the beverage shop.
Eliza told Yu Huang, âYou must try this shopâs Storm Harbor. Itâs especially delicious.â
Yu Huang ordered two glasses of Storm Harbor.
After taking a sip, Yu Huang immediately frowned and gave a neutral evaluation. âThis is like the combination of urine and alcohol. To be honest, itâs disgusting.â However, the strange thing was that this thing actually made one have the urge to take a second sip.
Thus, Yu Huang took another sip.
When Eliza saw Yu Huangâs actions, she smiled. âI knew you would like it.â
When Estelle heard Yu Huangâs evaluation of the beverage, he couldnât help but take a sip. After taking a sip, he frowned and refused to take a second sip.
Eliza pressed the cigarette that was about to burn out into the ashtray. She took a sip of Storm Harbor and suddenly said, âLast year, we were alone with the team and were unlucky enough to encounter a level-four demon beast that was in the estrus period. We fought a fierce battle, but we mortals were no match for the demon beast.â
Eliza patted her left prosthetic leg and said, âMy leg was bitten off by that demon beast, butâ¦â Eliza picked up the fang pendant on her neck again and flaunted it proudly to Yu Huang.â This is the demon beastâs sharpest fang. I treat it as a trophy and hang it around my neck. â
Eliza, a commoner warrior, was able to escape from the mouth of a level-four demon beast and even counterattack. This was indeed impressive.
Yu Huang raised her glass and said, âTo the brave and fearless you.â
Eliza nodded with a smile.
âAre you also here for that level 8 Monster Core?â Eliza asked Yu Huang.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Yu Huang asked her, âWhat about you? You too?â
Eliza nodded and said, âThe other party offered a high price.â
âHow high?â
Eliza narrowed her eyes and raised a finger.
Yu Huang said, â100 million? And itâs in international coins?â
Eliza shook her head. âNot that much. Itâs ten million spirit stones.â
Estelleâs eyes widened. Ten million spirit stones. He couldnât even imagine how much a hundred million spirit stones were.
Yu Huang pointed out directly, âYou canât complete this mission. If you run into the abyss now, you will only be courting death.â Although these words sounded heartless, it was the truth.
Eliza said, âOf course I knew that our team couldnât complete this mission, so we didnât accept it.â
âThen what are you doing?â
Eliza smiled bitterly and shook her head. She said, âThe vice sect master of the Dark Night Ghost Sect arrived in Rakshasa City last night. He massacred the Fire Wave Mercenary Group and gave us a death order.â
With that said, Eliza took out a black cloth belt from her pocket and tied it around her shoulder in front of Yu Huang. She smiled helplessly at Yu Huang and sighed. âDid you see that? Weâre going to die. He used ten million spirit stones to buy the lives of a bus full of us.â
Eliza told Yu Huang, âOur Eliza Mercenary Group is the gathering place for all the female desperados on the continent. Other than us, there are more than a hundred female members in the team.â
âThe vice sect master of the Ghost Sect has captured them. If we donât want to fight, thenâ¦â Eliza closed her eyes in despair and sighed.â We can only die. â
Yu Huang was really disgusted by the actions of the Dark Night Ghost Sect.
âHow dare they!â Yu Huang put down the glass heavily and asked Eliza, âDo they think they can catch a level-eight demon beast just by fighting to the death?â
Eliza suddenly asked Yu Huang, âDo you know of a demon beast called the Red Lady?â
âIâve heard of the existence of such a demon beast,â Yu Huang said. âThese demon beasts often wander in the primitive forest in the form of flames and are best at hiding. The attack power of these demon beasts isnât strong, but their Monster Cores contain powerful fire attributes. Itâs said that the Red Lady likes to drink blood the most. They will go wherever the smell of blood is the densest.â
With that said, Yu Huang suddenly narrowed her eyes and made a bold guess. âCould it be that the vice sect master is planning to use your blood to attract the Red Lady?â
Eliza nodded. âYes, for fugitives like us who have no identity or national protection, even if we are killed by the Night Ghost Sect, no one will avenge us. Therefore, we are the best source of blood.â
The people who lived in Rakshasa City were all outlaws. Who cared if they lived or died?
Yu Huang looked at Eliza and was speechless.
Eliza suddenly handed Yu Huang an inch photo. âLook, is she cute?â
Yu Huang took the photo and looked down. She realized that it was a young lady in the photo. The young lady looked to be only three to four years old. She had a bowl cut, but her face was very fair and cute.
Yu Huang realized that this young ladyâs eyes were somewhat similar to Elizaâs. She was somewhat surprised. âIs this your daughter?â
âYes,â Eliza said. âMy ex-husband was a drug lord. I was once his subordinate and partner, but ever since I gave birth to my daughter and saw her innocent smile, I was no longer willing to do evil business. So I betrayed my husband and the entire corporation.â
After betraying her husbandâs group, Eliza naturally had nowhere to escape to and fled to Rakshasa City.
Eliza pointed at the photo and told Yu Huang, âHer name is Yingying. Sheâs 18 years old this year. I havenât seen her for 14 years.â Eliza stuffed the photo into Yu Huangâs palm and said, âMy daughter wants to be a police officer. Wu Huang, if you can meet her in the future, help me give her the photo. Tell her that Mommy loves her.â
However, Yu Huang returned the photo to Eliza and said mercilessly, âI hate helping people fulfill their last wishes the most. If you really love her, live well and try to contact her. If I were your daughter, I would prefer to hear you say that you love me from you, instead of from a stranger.â
With that, Yu Huang stood up, and Estelle stood up as well.
âI wish you the best of luck.â Yu Huang left with Estelle.
After they walked away, Estelle said to Yu Huang, âWhy didnât you agree to her request? Sheâs so pitiful.â
Yu Huang said, âThatâs her hope. Hope can only be useful if itâs by her side.â
Estelle carefully savored Yu Huangâs words. After a moment, he said, âYu Huang, youâre a philosopher.â
Yu Huang shook her head and smiled. She brought Estelle to the dining room to meet Sheng Xiao and the others.
Sheng Xiao and the others went to a seafood restaurant. They sat at a long table by the window and drank and chatted. When he saw the marriage line on his ring finger flick, Sheng Xiao put down his wine glass and turned to the waiter. âYou can serve the dishes now.â As soon as he finished speaking, Feng Yuncheng and the others saw Yu Huang bring Estelle over.
