Chapter 869: Handsome Guy, Come In and Have Some Fun

So this little girl wants to undo the Sacrificial Heart Imprint and escape my control... Ye Xiu scoffed internally, then said,

"I should be one of the people who understand the Sacrificial Heart Imprint the best."

Kristina’s eyes lit up. "Then can you undo the Sacrificial Heart Imprint?"

Ye Xiu thought for a moment. "I have some ideas, but it needs time to verify. After all, before today, I was just a good-for-nothing and had never practiced anything related to martial arts."

This answer delighted Kristina, and she immediately promised,

"As long as you can figure out how to break the Sacrificial Heart Imprint, I will grant you a drop of golden blood, reward you with two totems, and take you to the Golden Family for the best training."

Ye Xiu immediately pretended to be excited and expressed, "I will do my utmost."

"Mm!"

Kristina nodded, encouragingly patting Ye Xiu on the shoulder, and said,

"I’ll give you one night’s time to prepare. Starting tomorrow, you will follow by my side."

After saying this, she left.

At this moment, Lei Busi jokingly scolded, "You brat, hurry and help me to the wheelchair."

"Oh, oh!"

Ye Xiu quickly went over, propped up Lei Busi who was slumped on the ground, and helped him into the wheelchair.

Then he suddenly noticed that Lei Busi’s originally joyful expression had become unpleasant.

He asked, "What’s wrong?"

"You’re not Xiaoming, who are you?"

Lei Busi asked coldly, staring at Ye Xiu.

Ye Xiu’s pupils constricted, silently calling himself too careless. Although Lei Busi was disabled, the Primordial Spirit of an Eighth Realm War God was still there, and his insight was astonishing. No matter how much he imitated Lei Xiaoming, there would always be differences from the original.

He asked, "How did you find out?"

Lei Busi didn’t answer but instead asked, "Who exactly are you? Why did you disguise as Xiaoming? What did you do to Xiaoming?"

"You answer my question first!" Ye Xiu replied calmly.

Lei Busi stared at Ye Xiu for three seconds and said, "Xiaoming has a birthmark behind his left ear. When you were helping me just now, I didn’t see that birthmark behind your ear."

So that’s it!

It seems that I didn’t observe Lei Xiaoming closely enough, he said,

"Rest assured, Lei Xiaoming is alive and well. I’m just borrowing his identity temporarily. After I’m done with it, I will return it to you, and I’ll even reward him with an opportunity."

Lei Busi nodded, "I hope you can keep your promise."

After saying this, he wheeled himself back into the house.

Ye Xiu didn’t follow inside. Since his identity was exposed in front of Lei Busi, there was no need for him to stay here anymore.

He decided to find a hotel to stay in!

With this thought, Ye Xiu left the Lei Family.

At this moment, Gongsun Tai and his group, who had been singing loudly atop a streetlamp, saw Ye Xiu walking out of the Lei Family’s place.

They watched Ye Xiu walk away, and only then did they climb down from the streetlamp, quickly put on their clothes, and dispersed the onlookers.

"Utter humiliation, I, Zhuge Qingfeng, have never suffered such utter humiliation in my life," Zhuge Qingfeng said, his face ashen with anger.

"I, Sha Lidong, vow not to be a man if this enmity is not avenged," Sha Lidong gritted his teeth and said.

"After this event, we are bound to become the laughing stock of the entire city, if not the nation. If Lei Xiaoming is not dead, we will be laughed at for a lifetime," Gongsun Tai said with a sinister expression.

At this moment, Gongsun Shu came over and said, "We only have one night to kill Lei Xiaoming. Once he becomes the guard of the little princess and stays by her side, we won’t have another chance."

"Zhuge, do you have any brilliant ideas?" Gongsun Tai asked.

Others all looked towards Zhuge Qingfeng.

The Zhuge Family holds the think tank of the Eternal Kingdom. Qiao Beiming, the top strategist of the Eternal Kingdom who was killed by Ye Xiu, was under the Zhuge Family’s employ.

The Zhuge Family was most adept at military tactics and scheming.

"Leave it to me. By tomorrow morning, you will hear the news of Lei Xiaoming’s death," Zhuge Qingfeng said confidently.

Upon hearing his assurance, Gongsun Shu and the others all laughed cruelly!

...

Ye Xiu randomly found a restaurant and got himself a private room, and only then did he take out his cellphone to message Christian:

"I’m planning to sneak into the Royal City tonight. Which cell are you in in the prison?"

Pretending he didn’t know Kristina was no longer in prison, and definitely couldn’t let Kristina know he was already in the Royal City.

Kristina: "I’ve already got out of prison. You don’t need to come to the Royal City."

She doesn’t want me to interrupt her attempts to break the Sacrificial Heart Imprint?

Ye Xiu easily interpreted Kristina’s intention and asked,

"Alright, have you contacted the Golden Family?"

Kristina: "Yes, my mom is sending someone to pick me up, but I don’t know exactly when they’ll arrive."

Ye Xiu suddenly felt the urgency of time. He had to break the Shocking God and Demon Formation before the people from the Golden Family arrived at the Royal City. Otherwise, if he went to the Underground City and the King and the Eternal Kingdom’s masters stayed holed up in the Royal City, this war would never end.

But!

To break the formation!

First, he needed to know where the formation base was!

"I need to go to the Royal Palace to see if there are any clues!"

Ye Xiu finished his meal and used the Earth System Totem, originally planning to directly slip into the Royal Palace to search for clues about the formation base or, if necessary, kill the King as a good option.

However, he halted when he reached the vicinity of the Royal Palace!

The Royal Palace was protected by a grand formation, which was connected to the Shocking God and Demon Formation. One could say inside the Royal Palace was even more dangerous than the Royal City.

"It seems I can only find an opportunity to let Kristina take me into the Royal Palace!"

Ye Xiu found a deserted corner, emerged from the ground, and wandered alone on the streets, enjoying the nightlife of the Royal City.

"Hey handsome, come play—oh crap, Lei Xiaoming? Stay away!"

"They’re actually all First Realm War Gods?"

Ye Xiu suddenly realized that the number of martial artists on King Island exceeded his expectations and promptly sent a message to You Ming:

"How many martial artists are there in King Island in total?"

You Ming: "Please wait, I’ll make a detailed chart analysis for you."

"Alright!" Ye Xiu put away his phone.

At that moment, a crisis intuition made him reflexively crouch down abruptly. Simultaneously, a flying dagger brushed past his head, nearly ruining his hairstyle.

"Impressive, the revenge of the Gongsun Family, Zhuge Family, and Sha Family came swiftly indeed."

Ye Xiu squinted his eyes.

He had already sensed that the assassin had withdrawn.

If one strike failed, retreat immediately—this was a professional assassin!

"Th-this, are you Lei Xiaoming?"

"They say you can’t cultivate and didn’t inherit the Lei Family’s Thunder System Totem, but the speed of that flying dagger just now, even I as a First Realm War God couldn’t dodge it. How did you?"

"Ferociously!"

After saying this, he strode away.

The young lady drew a sharp breath, but looked at Ye Xiu’s departing figure in utter shock, murmuring,

"The rumors are truly unreliable. Lei Xiaoming is not a wretch at all!"

Ye Xiu continued wandering around. He hadn’t gone far when suddenly a shadow leaped out from a dark corner by the roadside, drawing a sword to stab at the right side of Ye Xiu’s neck.
