Chapter 1558 - 618: Going Too Far!

Chapter 1558: Chapter 618: Going Too Far!

Seeing the change in Ye Lingyue’s expression, Xi Jiuye felt his earlier gloom lifted significantly.

A few thousand Merit Points really didn’t mean much to Xi Jiuye.

He stayed in Senluo Wanxiang City because of Third Young Master Jin.

But that didn’t affect him taking tasks on his own.

The number of demon beasts he had hunted had reached a staggering figure, and the Jin Family’s Jiu Provinces Card was in his possession.

Tang Tianqi listened and was even happier.

However, Hong Mingyue beside them felt a bit displeased.

She’s not like Tang Tianqi, a brainless noble family daughter; she’s been by Xi Jiuye’s side for months.

Facing this man, she could be said to be advancing cautiously.

She couldn’t claim to fully understand Xi Jiuye’s temperament, but one thing was clear.

He’s indifferent, and if he doesn’t like someone, he won’t say a word, let alone provoke.

Earlier, he was clearly provoking Ye Lingyue.

This shows that Ye Lingyue holds a special place in his heart.

These past months, she had painstakingly filled Xi Jiuye’s ears with bad words about Ye Lingyue, thinking this man detested Ye Lingyue deeply.

Hong Mingyue felt unwilling, her gaze towards Ye Lingyue was even sharper.

To dismiss beggars?

Ye Lingyue felt her anger stuck there, intending to react, but suddenly she thought of something, her eyes curved, and she laughed.

"Then this meal is thanks to Miss Thirteen’s generosity, thank you. Now that we’re full, we should get going."

With that, Ye Lingyue turned to leave without a backward glance.

Fools with money, your family has lots of Merit Points, so you should pay the bill.

Don’t begrudge anyone, especially Merit Points.

Ye Lingyue had sorted through her thoughts.

Her smile was unexpected to Xi Jiuye.

Especially those eyes, like a New Moon, instantly made the originally unimpressive face extraordinarily radiant.

Xi Jiuye felt his heart struck heavily, momentarily lost in admiration.

Only after Ye Lingyue and the others had left did he regain his senses.

The opponent wasn’t angry... It was like punching a cotton ball, without any reaction.

The young man who had not spoken, standing beside Xi Jiuye, saw Ye Lingyue and company leave, a shadow of gloom passing through his eyes.

"Brother Xi, don’t be so kind next time. Some people are poorly raised, eating for free without even saying thanks. Speaking of which, the hour is still early, are you heading back to the inn or wandering around the city?"

Tang Tianqi was reluctant to leave easily upon finally seeing Xi Jiuye, clinging to him with incessant chatter.

Xi Jiuye had little interest in responding, but Yue Mubai beside him answered warmly.

"Miss Tianqi, we’ve come to host Divine Doctor Gongsun. He just cured our young master, and we’re short of some medicinal herbs, planning to purchase some at the Exotic Treasures Pavilion."

He said, introducing the accompanying Divine Doctor Gongsun.

Only then did Tang Tianqi know this person was named Gongsun Zhi.

Though his appearance was ordinary and he looked young, he possessed extraordinary medical skills.

He cured an incurable ailment in just two hours.

As a result, Gongsun Zhi became an accompanying Alchemist of the Jin Family.

Tonight, Xi Jiuye and the others were here to celebrate him.

Tang Tianqi was young and beautiful, somewhat resembling Zi Yan back in the day.

Yue Mubai felt quite attracted to her, but Tang Tianqi didn’t think much of Yue Mubai.

"You’re going to Exotic Treasures Pavilion, oh how coincidental, I’m planning to visit Treasure Pavilion. Why don’t I join you, my carriage is outside, how about you ride with me?"

Afraid that Xi Jiuye and the others would refuse, Tang Tianqi hurriedly went out to prepare her carriage before he could answer.

Xi Jiuye looked at Yue Mubai with some displeasure.

"The Tang Family and Jin Family have good relations. Though Miss Thirteen’s team is merely a squad, it’s good to maintain a relationship. These are Third Young Master Jin’s instructions."

The rapport between Yue Mubai and Xi Jiuye wasn’t particularly harmonious.

He complied with Xi Jiuye only because he feared his strength.

"Brother Yue is right, the Tang Family holds a remarkable position in Outer Heaven, forging more connections is beneficial."

Gongsun Zhi also spoke up.

His earlier Heart Execution Grass was obtained from the Tang Family.

Gongsun Zhi knew some of the mysteries of the Heart Execution Grass.

He even suspected that the Tang Family might possess fragments of the Jiu Provinces Cauldron.

However, the Tang Family’s foundation is deep, its generations of talents abound, Gongsun Zhi acknowledged he wasn’t their match, so he had never dared to provoke them.

After leaving Qiyu City, Gongsun Zhi traveled night and day, finally arriving in Qiyu City around the same time as Ye Lingyue and company.

Thanks to his medical skills, he indeed cured Third Young Master Jin’s illness and smoothly infiltrated the Jin Family’s team.

He originally intended to secretly inquire about the Huangquan Team, but didn’t expect to encounter them so soon.

He had already paid attention to the Huangquan Team members, but hadn’t discovered anything special, even upon attempting to use spiritual power to explore, he didn’t find any traces of Cauldron Pieces.

The current plan was only to investigate secretly who might be the person he was looking for.

Xi Jiuye said no more, turning to walk out of Chuyun Tower.

The others followed Xi Jiuye, filing out after him.

Clearly establishing Xi Jiuye as the leader, this made Yue Mubai even more irked.

"Xi Jiuye, don’t get cocky, once we locate Taixu Tomb Realm’s whereabouts and seize the divine seal, let’s see how arrogant you can be."

Outside Chuyun Tower, Ye Lingyue and company were discussing going to Exotic Treasures Pavilion.

Because of Tang Tianqi’s interruption, they had only eaten half of their meal. Not wanting to upset Tang Tiansong, nobody mentioned Tang Tianqi.

Ye Lingyue proposed visiting Exotic Treasures Pavilion.

Earlier at the city gate, Ye Lingyue had heard Tang Tiansong mention that recently hunted demon beasts would be auctioned at Exotic Treasures Pavilion.

Moreover, Tang Tiansong had mentioned during the meal that the place not to be missed in Senluo Wanxiang City was there, where one could buy whatever they desired as long as they had enough Merit Points.

No one raised objections, so they prepared to head to Exotic Treasures Pavilion.

Suddenly, they heard a clattering sound.

From the street corner ahead, a speeding carriage appeared.

At a glance, the carriage was different, not to mention its opulent gold-bright look made entirely of premium refined Nirvana Steel.

The carriage’s shafts were also studded with several fist-sized Luminous Pearls, glowing brightly even while moving in the dark.

The carriage stopped right at Chuyun Pavilion’s entrance.

The curtain of the carriage was pulled aside, revealing Tang Tianqi’s petulant face.

Her face initially beaming with excitement surveyed Chuyun Pavilion, but instead of seeing Xi Jiuye and the others, she spotted Tang Tiansong and Ye Lingyue’s group.

Upon seeing them, Tang Tianqi’s eyes gleamed and she called out loudly.

"Tang Tiansong, come over here."
