Chapter 1222 - 49: Who Is the Mole
The undercurrent of the power struggle between the Old Clan Chief of the Jiuluan Clan and Young Clan Chief Lu was stirring intensely.
On the other side, Yun Sheng and Hua Yanluo, along with the three candidate Holy Daughters from Fengdu, had a fierce battle. Qian Lang only learned about it when he returned to the inn that night.
"You injured Elder Liu’s granddaughter?" Qian Lang felt as if the sky was falling when he heard the news.
What shocked him even more was that it wasn’t Hua Yanluo or Qin Yue who defeated Liu Xueyu, but the half-beast Medical Woman Yun Sheng who accompanied the team.
"That’s right, Lord Qian Lang. That woman has been hiding her strength very deeply. This time, she really caused a great disaster, and we all are going to be ruined by her. Feng Lian, she even impersonated your identity, participating as a candidate Heavenly Fox Saintess. I think she had premeditated this for a long time," Qin Yue exaggeratedly told Qian Lang.
In hindsight, she felt some regret. Elder Liu held significant influence in the Elder Council, and because of her involvement with Yun Sheng, she was punished by Elder Liu and felt too innocent.
"Well, it happened. We made the decision together as three people. Now to blame it on her alone, Qin Yue, you’re really heartless," although Hua Yanluo resented Yun Sheng for obtaining two Sky Fox Inheritances and becoming the biggest winner, she still had basic principles.
Feng Lian glanced at Yun Sheng and said nothing more.
"Alas, the deed is done, talking more is futile. Ladies, especially Doctor Yun, if there’s nothing urgent over the next few days, it would be best for you to avoid wandering around the Hu Capital," Qian Lang felt overwhelmed.
The situation came too suddenly. He had to write a letter quickly to inform Master Helai and then wait to see how things unfold.
Yun Sheng pursed her lips, appearing indifferent.
Anyway, without finding the whereabouts of Ye Hu, she had no plans to walk around Hu Capital anymore. She had obtained two Sky Fox Inheritances and used the Demon God Transformation for the first time.
Before the Heavenly Fox Saintess selection ceremony, it was just the right time for her to retreat into cultivation.
However, after this competition, the attitudes of Hua Yanluo and Qin Yue towards Yun Sheng had changed significantly.
Especially Hua Yanluo, her gaze towards Yun Sheng had changed, and every time she saw Yun Sheng, she cautiously kept a distance.
This woman dared to obliterate Liu Xueyu with a Heavenly Thorns strike; who knows when she might, without a second thought, smash her to pieces too.
Feng Lian, not being present, hadn’t witnessed Yun Sheng’s magic firsthand.
As for Qin Yue, always a fence-sitter, she harbored a grievance seeing Yun Sheng solely obtaining two Sky Fox Inheritances.
Qin Yue returned to her room and complained to her maid.
"Miss, someone delivered a letter while you were away," the maid said hurriedly, producing a letter.
Qin Yue opened it and found it was written by Elder Liu.
"Great, here’s an opportunity, Elder Liu’s letter." Qin Yue casually read through it and saw the signature at the end, and her eyes suddenly brightened.
It seemed heaven never left a dead-end. She had been worried about offending Elder Liu because of Yun Sheng, but unexpectedly, Elder Liu wrote in the letter that as long as she assisted him in dealing with Yun Sheng, he would help Qin Yue during the Heavenly Fox Candidate Saintess selection.
Elder Liu also mentioned that his granddaughter Liu Xueyu’s injuries were severe, and Fengdu had no hope of winning. Seeing that Qin Yue was beautiful and clever, he decided to let Qin Yue replace Liu Xueyu.
This letter had Qin Yue elated.
The letter from Elder Liu instructed her to first find out about Yun Sheng’s cultivation techniques and her weaknesses, so that when the time came, they could deal with Yun Sheng.
"That woman is a Mage, and a Dark Mage at that. As long as Elder Liu can find a Light Mage, it should not be difficult to deal with her. As for her weaknesses, it should be the Demon Beast next to her and that Medicine Gathering Boy," Qin Yue, eyes gleaming, immediately penned a letter and instructed the maid to send it out.
"Yun Sheng, just because you’re a Sky Fox Half-Beast, why should you get two Sky Fox Inheritances alone? I will make you realize that where I am, Qin Yue, no one can surpass me," Qin Yue was smug.
A similar letter was received not only by Qin Yue but also by Hua Yanluo.
After reading it, she remained silent.
"Miss, this is a great opportunity," Hua Yanluo’s maid knew that her mistress had never received much attention from the Hua Family because she was of illegitimate birth.
This time, it was a great opportunity for the young lady to rise.
"Burn this letter, let’s pretend we never saw it. No one is allowed to leak Elder Liu’s contact with us," Hua Yanluo’s words surprised her maid greatly.
"Miss, you don’t plan to cooperate with Elder Liu?"
"In the end, I am a person of Cangdu. How can I work for people of Fengdu? If I betray Cangdu, even if I become a Saintess, I would have no face to meet my family and friends in Cangdu. Besides, this matter started because of me, and that Yun woman just took advantage of an opportunity," Hua Yanluo’s temper might be fiery, but she could discern right from wrong.
Having raised a granddaughter like Liu Xueyu, Elder Liu is no simple character.
Besides, Fengdu also has a Lu Yunshuang. How could Elder Liu be so naive as to support her ascension easily?
Hua Yanluo was a concubine-born daughter in the Hua Family, where she had seen such intrigues more than once.
If she collaborated with him, she would be left with nothing, even her bones would be picked clean. Hua Yanluo was not that foolish.
"Elder Liu, that old fox, how could he only contact me? If I guessed right, that fence-sitter Qin Yue must have received that letter as well. She might even think it’s a huge opportunity," Hua Yanluo scoffed and burned the letter.
In Yun Sheng’s room, Bo Bo and Little Yingying, who had been playing all day, were already asleep from exhaustion.
To not cause too big a disturbance, Yun Sheng simply entered the Linglong Beast Tower and released her Magic Soul.
After experiencing the Demon God Transformation for the first time, Yun Sheng’s Six Magic Souls had transformed into a Dark Magic Soul, and the energy fluctuations of her Magic Soul became even more intense.
"According to the Netherworld Ghost King, successfully changing multiple Magic Soul attributes into a single attribute is only the first step of the Demon God Transformation. The most crucial step is transforming the single-attribute back into a multi-attribute Magic Soul. Next, is the most critical step. Can my Magic Soul still restore to the state of a Six Attribute Magic Soul?" Yun Sheng chanted the Demon God Transformation’s mantra while summoning the Divine Lotus Karma Fire, which appeared like a lotus flower, in her hands.
The indestructible Divine Lotus Karma Fire enveloped Yun Sheng.
This flame, hot enough to completely melt even Purple Gold, didn’t cause Yun Sheng any pain or discomfort.
With the emergence of the Divine Lotus Karma Fire, the Dark Magic Soul emitted a sound like a caged beast wrestling, and the pitch-black Dark Magic Soul began to transform gradually.
