Chapter 214: Chapter 215: The Wine is Poisoned

"Hehe, Third Senior Sister, don’t scare me, I haven’t even gotten married or had a bunch of kids yet!" Ye Wudao chuckled.

"You never take things seriously!" Wu Qingcheng pinched Ye Wudao’s face, and said, "Do you still think you’re that all-capable and lawless top disciple of Kunlun from the past? This time, someone really intends to put you to death!"

Who?

Ye Wudao’s gaze suddenly shot out a sharp, cold light!

"First tell me, have you joined the Northern King’s Palace or not?" Third Senior Sister asked with piercing eyes.

"Yes!" Ye Wudao, looking at the solemn-faced Third Senior Sister, timidly asked, "Third Senior Sister, you won’t blame me, will you?"

"Do you have any idea how many enemies the Northern King’s Palace has made?" Wu Qingcheng asked.

Ye Wudao shook his head, "I don’t know."

"Hmph, let me tell you! The Secret Division, the Martial Division, even the big shots of Dragon Country’s royal court, who doesn’t resent the Northern King’s Palace to the bone?"

"Why?" Ye Wudao couldn’t understand.

"Hehe, isn’t it because the Northern King’s Palace was too powerful at first, encroaching on other people’s interests! The Northern King had an illustrious military career in his life, his merits so grand that they shook the sovereign, leading to jealous hatred and his untimely death while still young!"

Wu Qingcheng’s face showed a trace of regret, and suddenly with cold eyes, she said, "You lad, how many lives do you have that you dare to join the Northern King’s Palace despite the immense danger? Isn’t that like hanging your head on your belt?"

"Cough cough, I had just come down from Kunlun at that time, thought it would be fun, and besides, the Northern King’s Palace gave me a feeling of family, so I joined without giving it much thought!" Ye Wudao paused, then said with a serious face, "But I have no regrets."

Wu Qingcheng pulled out a top-secret letter from her body and said coldly, "Hehe, this is a top-secret letter I intercepted from the Secret Division, take a look."

Ye Wudao opened the top-secret letter and saw it contained only one sentence, brimming with murderous intent.

"Capture the rebel leader, Ye Wudao, alive, cooperate with the Dark Dragon, and eradicate the remnants of the Northern King’s Palace!"

Signed, the Dark King!

Not good!

Ye Wudao’s complexion changed, "Today is the day the Northern King’s Palace is holding its ten-year grand assembly, they are in danger!"

"This is an outright conspiracy!" Wu Qingcheng said with a frosty face, "The Secret Division has been scheming this all along, taking advantage of the Northern King’s Palace’s ten-year grand assembly to wipe them out in one fell swoop, eradication from the roots, and you’re their primary target!"

Ye Wudao’s eyes became solemn, "No, I must inform the people of the Northern King’s Palace right away, tell them to move quickly!"

"Little Junior Brother, you must think this through, rushing over blindly is dangerous!" Wu Qingcheng’s pretty face was grave.

"Third Senior Sister, my mind is made up!" Ye Wudao’s gaze was firm and fearless.

"I know I can’t dissuade you!" Wu Qing sighed helplessly, "Xiao Long, Xiao Hu!"

"Present!" Two burly men appeared.

Wu Qingcheng said with a smile, "These two are my personal bodyguards, selected by Dad himself from over a hundred thousand good men of the Martial Alliance. Both Xiao Long and Xiao Hu are veteran sixth rank experts in the Physical Realm, they’ve followed me for many years, loyal and dedicated!"

Ye Wudao stared at the two, realizing that the brothers’ strength was not weak, top-notch among the Martial Alliance!

"Xiao Long, you must protect my little junior brother at all times; never leave his side even for a moment. Should my junior brother face even the slightest danger, you know the consequences!" Wu Qingcheng was gentle to Ye Wudao but cold and dominant to others.

With a thump, Xiao Long knelt on one knee, and said in a deep voice, "If anything happens to Mr. Ye, Xiao Long is willing to pay with his life!"

"Good!" Wu Qingcheng nodded, her gaze fixed on Xiao Hu beside her, she said, "Xiao Hu, issue my orders immediately, summon the stalwarts of the Martial Alliance stationed in the Capital City, all forces must rush to the aid!"

"Understood!" Xiao Hu kneeled on one knee and hurriedly left.

"Miss, with both Xiao Hu and I gone, what about your safety?" Xiao Long asked worriedly.

"Hehe, in the Capital City, there are not many who dare to provoke this lady, none of your business!" Wu Qingcheng spoke with a commanding tone.

Xiao Long cracked a smile, after all, the daughter of the Martial Alliance, known as a female devil, did not gain that reputation for nothing!

Whether it’s any force at all, before provoking Wu Qingcheng, they should weigh whether they are worthy!

"Third Senior Sister, thank you!" Ye Wudao sincerely thanked her.

"Hurry up and go!" Wu Qingcheng waved her hand, watching as Ye Wudao walked away, and suddenly sighed softly, "Ah, perhaps this is fate. Brother, in the end, you have joined the Northern King’s Palace. I hope you do not repeat the Northern King’s tragedy."

...

Capital City — Dynasty Grand Hotel.

Hundreds of banquet tables were fully seated!

Three thousand old warriors from the Northern King’s Palace, from all over, gathered together. Many old warriors were wounded and handicapped, but today they were dressed in military attire, their spirits high, displaying their indomitable martial spirit.

Su Yueli sat with Su Tiesheng in a position towards the back, considering that Su Tiesheng was only an ordinary member in the Northern King’s Palace back in the day.

Just then, four people suddenly approached the stage, three men and one woman, stirring the entire hall into an uproar.

"Lord Red Tiger!"

"Lord Black Phoenix!"

"Lord Blood Wolf!"

"Lord Shadow Panther!"

The entire hall erupted, as the three thousand warriors of the Northern King’s Palace didn’t expect to see the Northern King’s Palace’s Five Beasts gathered together again in their lifetime.

Lei Hu and others sitting in the first row were even more excited.

"Eh, why isn’t the Dark Dragon, the leader of the Five Beasts, here?" Qian Lei wondered aloud.

"He should appear soon." Lei Hu said with a smile.

The four strong individuals on the stage exchanged glances and smiled, "Let’s welcome with a round of applause—the leader of the Northern King’s Palace’s Five Beasts—Dark Dragon, big brother!"

In the expectant gaze of the audience, a burly middle-aged man walked forward, with thick eyebrows and a square face, dressed in a black tight-fitting suit, looking majestic.

"Lord Dark Dragon!"

"Lord Dark Dragon!" The three thousand old warriors of the Northern King’s Palace were overwhelmed with excitement, some even cried out of emotion.

Even the four on the stage, upon seeing Dark Dragon appear, said happily, "Big brother Dark Dragon, long time no see!"

"Bring out the wine!" Dark Dragon laughed heartily.

Soon, wine was brought forward.

Holding his wine cup high, Dark Dragon smiled, "My brothers, and all brothers of the Northern King’s Palace, nearly ten years have passed, and we have finally gathered together again. Let us raise our glasses to celebrate!"

The other four Northern King’s Palace experts picked up their wine cups.

Just then, a thunderous voice echoed through the hall, "Don’t drink, the wine is poisoned!"
