Chapter 1699 - 1699: Killing God Temple's Fury

When Shangguan Wan'er heard the entire story as described by Dong Ruyan, she was utterly amazed!

She never expected such a thing could happen between Dong Ruyan and Jiang Feng!

Previously, Dong Ruyan had never mentioned this to her, and now revealing it was like a bolt from the blue!

What distressed her even more was that Jiang Feng was also her beloved!

Until now, she hadn't had anything happen with Jiang Feng yet, but her friend had beaten her to it, how could she not feel awkward and angry?

"Little miss, that's how it went…"

Dong Ruyan finished telling Shangguan Wan'er everything, her face flushed with embarrassment, she lowered her head and said, "Little miss, now you know the whole story, you promised to keep it a secret for me…"

"Outrageous, that bastard!"

Shangguan Wan'er was filled with righteous indignation, grinding her teeth!

Dong Ruyan raised her head in astonishment, looking at her, "Little miss?!"

She didn't understand why Shangguan Wan'er would get angry without reason...

"Oh, I meant, that bastard is too despicable for doing such a beastly thing to you, Ruyan. Just imagining it, I can feel how saddened and humiliated you must have been…"

She pretended to stand up for Dong Ruyan, but in her heart, she was thinking, so taking action first and dealing with consequences later could win over Jiang Feng?

Why didn't she know this sooner?

"Little miss, let it be."

Dong Ruyan whispered, her face red, "That time it wasn't intentional, I guess it was sheer coincidence, maybe it's just my destiny…"

"Hmph, you speak so nicely!"

Shangguan Wan'er glared at Dong Ruyan, jealousy bubbling up, "You've learned to defend that troublemaker now, is he more important to you in your heart than me, your little miss?"

"Ah, no… no!"

Dong Ruyan shook her head frantically, Jiang Feng was important, but Shangguan Wan'er… was equally important!

This was her little miss, destined to be pursued and protected for a lifetime, just like maids in ancient times, no matter how beautiful and outstanding, always staying by the Princess's side.

Shangguan Wan'er looked at Dong Ruyan's utterly embarrassed state, feeling even more irked. She stared intensely at Dong Ruyan, "Ruyan, let me ask again, besides that once... have you done anything else beyond boundary with that guy? Answer truthfully!"

"No!"

Dong Ruyan shook her head vigorously like a rattle drum.

The previous night she had hinted to Jiang Feng to sleep with him, but Jiang Feng refused!

So much so that she was now doubting her own allure, already counted as Jiang Feng's woman, yet Jiang Feng treated her the same as before, set aside and untouched, was there any substantial change from before?!

When Shangguan Wan'er heard Dong Ruyan's denial, she finally felt somewhat balanced and relieved.

As long as aside from that accident, there were no other excessive behaviors.

Thus, she actually still had a chance, many things and steps were still possible to snatch ahead of Dong Ruyan...

This birthed many thoughts in the ever uncompromising and proud Shangguan Wan'er...

"Little miss, now I've told you everything, can we rest now…"

Dong Ruyan looked at Shangguan Wan'er bitterly, having no idea what thoughts were circulating in Shangguan Wan'er's mind now.

"Uh, yes! Right! We can rest now, wash up and sleep…" Shangguan Wan'er took a deep breath, hurriedly agreed, and then went to bathe.

The night deepened.

Not to mention Yanchi Villa side, still calm and quiet, there was yet any disturbance.

Far away at Arctic Snow Mountain, inside the Eighteen Hells Main Hall.

A place dark as night, within a vast Ice Cold Hall.

A man wearing golden armor, holding a lance, with a muscular build, stood at the central top of the hall, beside him stood two men with similar aura but dressed in silver armor.

In front of these three people were several individuals kneeling with trepidation, faces filled with fear.

"So, you're saying Abraham and Oliver haven't been contacted till now?"

The man in golden armor spoke, his tone carried an immensely powerful presence, even just this pressure could make the hall's ice layers tremble!

"Y-yes… Yes! Abraham team captain and Oliver's four people are all out of contact, even their life fires, except for Abraham's, the other four have extinguished…" a subordinate on the ground cautiously reported.

"Outrageous, what on earth happened!!!"

The golden-armored man slammed the gun butt on the ground fiercely, instantly, the ice floor below cracked into spider web-like white patterns, evidencing his fury!

"Hall Master, this cannot be concealed anymore, perhaps we should report to King Zhuanlun, he's been waiting for news…"

A man in silver armor beside him advised.

He and the other man in silver armor were Vice Hall Masters, ranking only below the man in golden armor.

And because the Killing God Temple is the most important hall out of all Eighteen Hells' subordinate halls, this Hall Master and the two Vice Hall Masters' standings are exceptionally high, completely above other hall masters, even second only to Ten Halls Yama.

Precisely because of this, this Killing God Temple's Hall Master is extremely proud, concerning his face and authority.

The Killing God Temple over many years, has never failed in their tasks, always efficient and successful.

Yet unforeseen, this time they failed, sent out five people including a team captain, all went out of contact.

Four can be confirmed dead, and the one alive, unsure of their status now.

"Indeed, King Zhuanlun over there is waiting for a reply, we can't delay anymore. Just yesterday he sent someone to ask me…" The second Vice Hall Master also said helplessly.

The Hall Master's face was extremely grim, after a long pause, he gritted his teeth and said: "Alright, Basel, go apologize to King Zhuanlun, tell him that this matter will still be shouldered solely by Killing God Temple, ensuring to amend mistakes with contributions!"

The second Vice Hall Master, Basel, nodded, turned and left.

Knowing such apologizing matters shouldn't involve the Hall Master directly, it's essential to protect the Killing God Temple's dignity, not letting other sub-halls see a sign of disgrace.

However, regardless, for someone to dare cause a Killing God Temple mission to fail, and still cause losses in manpower, is utterly unforgivable!

When the next Killing God Temple collection happens, it must be dealt with more severely, until the person tarnishing Killing God Temple's reputation is ripped apart, only then can the disgrace be washed away!!
