Chapter 267: Di Lingtian’s Double Reward
Yue Jinrong was a Spirit Casting expert, while Zi Shuilan was only at Tier 9 of the spiritual realm.
He was poisoned again and it wasn’t his doing at all. He couldn’t even avoid this attack.
Zi Shuilan’s chest collapsed and he vomited a few mouthfuls of black blood. His beautiful face turned a little pale again, as if he could die at any moment.
“Humph, so what if you kill me? Your Yue Family can forget about being the City Lord of the City of Beastmen in this lifetime. Hahaha!”
“Yue Jinrong, in this lifetime, you’ll only be a despicable person who kills his wife and children and tries to occupy the City Lord’s position!”
Zi Shuilan’s body was weak, but his aura was not.
He smiled happily and looked at Yue Jinrong with undisguised mockery and contempt.
He knew that once the Purple Cloud Soul Essence went missing, Yue Jinrong would definitely kill him if he couldn’t find it.
Hence, Zi Shuilan had no qualms about it.
“Unfilial son! Unfilial son!”
Being despised by a sickly person made his heart ache again.
Yue Jinrong’s eyes turned red with anger. He couldn’t bear it anymore and stepped forward to punch and kick Zi Shuilan.
In a few minutes, Zi Shuilan was bleeding from his seven apertures and had lost his breath.
“Father, he… he’s dead!”
Yue Qianxiao placed his fingers on the tip of his nose. There was no breath.
His heart was no longer beating. Yue Qianxiao fell to the ground in shock.
After all, the Zi Family’s bloodline had been that of a City Lord since the establishment of the City Of Beastmen.
He still felt a little guilty about Zi Shuilan’s sudden death.
“What are you afraid of? Throw him out of the City of Beastmen. Throw him far away. It’s best if he’s eaten by the demons.”
As long as the bloodline of the Zi Family was severed and the Purple Cloud Soul Essence was recovered, the Yue Family would still be legitimate as the City Lord.
“Then… what about the Purple Cloud Soul Essence!”
“Humph, since that person didn’t care that this sickly person ran away with the Purple Cloud Soul Essence, he must have planned to take over the Purple Cloud Soul Essence. He also wants to be the City Lord of the City of Beastmen, so he must return to the City of Beastmen. The City of Beastmen’s Meet is about to begin. You and your sister will bring the Maze Mirror to the city gate to strictly check on everyone who enters the city. If you find out, capture them immediately!”
The Maze Mirror could track the aura of the Purple Cloud Soul Essence immediately, so Yue Jinrong was not worried at all.
Until now, he did not suspect that this was done by someone outside the City of Beastmen.
In his opinion, outsiders could not avoid the complicated mechanisms in the secret room.
The people of the City of Beastmen had only known about the Purple Cloud Soul Essence on the City Lord’s token and did not know that it could nourish the soul.
Before long, Yue Jinrong’s confidants came forward and threw the dead Zi Shuilan out of the City Of Beastmen.
Huan City, Jun Mohuang’s mansion.
Di Lingtian did not know that his act of taking the Purple Cloud Soul Essence had triggered a murder.
Even if he knew, he wouldn’t care.
This was the price the people of the City of Beastmen had to pay for not issuing an invitation to Huang’er.
He spent a day and a night wandering from Huan City to the City of Beastmen and successfully obtained it.
Di Lingtian’s was quick in his movement and he was about to find Jun Mohuang to ask for the reward when he realized that she had fallen into a deep state of cultivation while he was not around.
“This naughty girl!”
She was not in a bad mood, she was just trying to avoid giving him the reward.
It would be impossible for her to cultivate in a deeper state if she was in a bad mood.
Did she think that everything would be fine if she dodged it temporarily?
Hmph. When she came out of seclusion, he would double the reward request.
A dark light flashed across Di Lingtian’s bloodshot eyes.
Time flew.
Jun Mohuang fell into a deep state of cultivation and did not wake up for a long time.
