Chapter 1699: Chapter 759: Matters of Pregnancy

The Demon King Tongtian has fallen, and the Central Plains are now under the control of the Golden Horn Demon King.

Ye Lingyue agreed with the Golden Horn Demon King that after she finishes this Jiu Provinces Hunting, she will go meet the Golden Horn Demon King, open the Demon Road, and enter the Demon World to rescue Yan Jiu.

Although she couldn’t learn Yan Jiu’s exact whereabouts from Queen Xiyuan, Ye Lingyue believes that Yan Jiu is somewhere within the Demon Realm Northern Prison.

As for the outcome of the Jiu Provinces Hunting, Ye Lingyue doesn’t really care anymore.

After all, her ultimate goal in coming to the Ancient Nine Provinces this time is to rescue Yan Jiu and retrieve Di Shen’s other soul fragments.

"What? You say the Senluo Ghost Fruit King was destroyed, and the Demon King Tongtian was finally killed by Wuyue from the Wuling Team?"

The day after the birthday banquet, the Jin Family’s representative team also received the news from their spy.

The destruction of the Senluo Ghost Fruit King was still understandable, but the fact that the Demon King Tongtian was killed by an obscure Female Demon Hunter was just too unbelievable.

And not to mention the previously missing Golden Horn Demon King suddenly swept in and took control of the Central Plains, leaving the Jin Family’s representative team baffled.

"Brother Xi, don’t you find the whole thing strange?"

Jin Mu glanced at Xi Jiuye.

After last night, most of the Jin Family’s representative team members were either dead or injured, with only Xi Jiuye, Yue Mubai, and Hong Mingyue unharmed.

However, ever since their return, Xi Jiuye and Hong Mingyue both seemed a bit off.

Especially Xi Jiuye, who appeared distracted and unconcerned about the matter of the Tongtian Tribe.

"The Demon King Tongtian fled after being injured, so him being ambushed isn’t impossible. If there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave."

Xi Jiuye didn’t elaborate, stood up, and left, leaving Jin Mu glaring and speechless.

One of Demon King Tongtian’s arms was severely injured by Xi Jiuye, and he was with Queen Xiyuan at the time. What happened later, Xi Jiuye did not know.

Moreover, Xi Jiuye’s mind was entirely occupied by the dancer.

Xi Jiuye left the tent after speaking.

Jin Mu looked dissatisfied.

"Young master, what should we do? We’ve not only lost people this time but haven’t gained any merit. Meanwhile, the Wuling Team and the Huangquan Team both profited immensely."

The Jin Family’s representative team’s staff worriedly remarked.

The Huangquan Team struck down many demon soldiers from the Tongtian Tribe.

As for the Wuling Team, Wuyue’s killing of the demon king alone brought immense merit points.

All things considered, the Jin Family lost both the lady and the soldiers.

"Hmph, not as badly as the Tang Family. I heard Tang Lei’s corpse is still hanging at the entrance of the Tongtian Tribe."

Jin Mu sneered.

Regardless, he won’t allow the Huangquan Team and Wuling Team to profit for nothing.

As soon as Xi Jiuye left the tent, one of the Northern Territory Thirteen Riders swiftly appeared and knelt beside him.

"How did the intelligence gathering go?"

Xi Jiuye was impatient.

"Reporting, Sir, last night as per your instructions, I monitored near the Huangquan Team’s camp. Their team leader remained inside with a young man."

Upon hearing this, Xi Jiuye frowned even more.

Are the Earth Evil Female Monarch and the dancer not the same person?

So that means Di Shen has indeed been two-timing.

The Earth Evil Female Monarch isn’t the dancer.

Since last night, Xi Jiuye has suspected the Earth Evil Female Monarch and the dancer to be the same person, but now it seems he was wrong.

Thinking of Di Shen being so brazen, playing with two women resembling "Ye Ling," Xi Jiuye was filled with rage.

He was determined to expose Di Shen’s ugly truth.

Xi Jiuye scoffed coldly and left in a huff.

Little did Xi Jiuye know, the so-called team leader his subordinate saw wasn’t Ye Lingyue at all.

After Xi Jiuye made some "moves" on Ye Lingyue last night, Di Shen became vigilant.

He suspected Xi Jiuye may have guessed the wife’s true identity.

After leaving the banquet, he immediately found Little Wuya, instructed Little Wuya and Little Zhiyo to hurry back to the tent.

Then, he had Little Wuya manifest an illusion of Ye Lingyue.

Thus, Xi Jiuye was successfully fooled.

Shortly after Xi Jiuye left, Hong Mingyue followed.

She had heard Xi Jiuye’s words just now.

Hong Mingyue bit her lip.

Another man, ensnared by Ye Lingyue.

After narrowly escaping from Zitang Su’s hands last night, Hong Mingyue was dazed for an entire night, luckily avoiding the chaos at the Tongtian Tribe.

She was anxious about the mysterious black fire from Zitang Su entering her brow, wondering what adverse effects it might have.

After a restless night with no discomfort, Hong Mingyue finally relaxed.

She had intended to feign concern for Xi Jiuye, but since last night, Xi Jiuye had grown colder towards her.

Upon inquiry, she learned Xi Jiuye had fancied a dancer at the banquet.

A Jin Family spy disguised as a demon soldier said one of the women resembled Hong Mingyue.

Hong Mingyue, with a sneer, knew the dancer was connected to Ye Lingyue, perhaps even Ye Lingyue herself.

"Ye Lingyue, someday I’ll prove I’m stronger than you. I hope Heaven favors me this time."

Hong Mingyue contemplated as she placed her hand on her abdomen.

It’s been a month since she was with Xi Jiuye, and her monthly cycle hadn’t occurred.

Xi Jiuye didn’t want her to bear his child, but she insisted on having it.

He must think that by forcing her to take the after-pill, it would be foolproof.

Little did Xi Jiuye know, as a descendant of the Joyful Union Sect, she had ways to avoid trouble while engaging with numerous men and could make the pill ineffective.

Once she bears Xi Jiuye’s child, this man will have no way to rid himself of her.

Hong Mingyue envisioned returning to the Divine Realm with Xi Jiuye, rising to the Divine Consort due to motherhood.

Meanwhile, the tragic news of Tang Lei and Elder Ying’s deaths rapidly reached the Jiu Provinces Main Camp.

The entire main camp was thrown into an uproar.

"Unbelievable, the Demon Clan is overly brazen, daring to kill Leilei!"

An elderly man with snowy hair fumed, his eyes sharp like a hawk as he wore a long maroon robe.

"Tang Family Master, please remain calm. I have already sent people to negotiate with the Golden Horn Demon King. After much effort, we retrieved Nephew Tang’s and Elder Ying’s corpses."

Alliance Leader Ning was distressed, never expecting events would unravel like this.
