Chapter 740: Chapter 741: Yueli’s Jade Pendant

...

Covering hundreds of miles, several people arrived in less than an hour, truly a godspeed.

The Blood Clan, Brukh family.

Ye Wudao dismounted from the blood kirin and was soon followed by Will, Yan Donglai, and others, neither outdoing the other.

"Little junior brother won!" Yan Donglai said.

"I can’t even fly faster than the third one," Will said enviously.

"Cough, cough, wait for us!" Li Dagang and Lei Fen, both out of breath and panting, ran while holding their sides.

Just then, a blood clan Earl said, "Mr. Ye, the old Duke is waiting for you."

"Okay," Ye Wudao nodded.

Inside the reception room.

Seeing Ye Wudao and others arrive, the old Duke smiled, "You came so quickly?"

"Haha, upon hearing the news from the old Duke, I rushed over immediately," Ye Wudao said, barely able to contain his excitement, and asked, "Is there really news of Yueli?"

The old Duke nodded, "I mobilized all the power of the blood clan and finally found clues about Miss Su Yueli."

As he spoke, the old Duke took something from his body and handed it to Ye Wudao, "This should belong to Miss Su Yueli."

Ye Wudao took it and his pupils suddenly contracted.

It was a purple phoenix jade pendant, exquisitely crafted, as vivid as a living phoenix!

"Hiss, this is Yueli’s jade pendant!" Ye Wudao gasped and incredulously asked, "Old Duke, where did you get this pendant?"

"This item was leaked from the Holy Court," the old Duke replied.

What?

The Holy Court!

Ye Wudao narrowed his eyes and said coldly, "Could it be that Yueli is in the Holy Court?"

"Very likely," the old Duke nodded.

"I’m going to the Holy Court now!" Ye Wudao put away the purple phoenix jade pendant and turned to leave.

"Young friend Ye, you must not!" the old Duke quickly grabbed Ye Wudao, "The Holy Court is powerful, you cannot risk your life recklessly."

Will also stopped Ye Wudao, consoling him, "Yeah, third brother, the Holy Court is the foremost power in the west, similar to your Dragon Country’s Kunlun! Full of experts and numerous strong warriors, even hosting several battle saint-level old monsters. It is said that the Pope of the Holy Court even surpasses the battle saint level!"

Yan Donglai and others also showed serious expressions, "We have also heard of the Holy Court’s name."

"A hundred years ago, during the East-West war, the West was led by the Holy Court! Although the Holy Court eventually lost, Dragon Country also suffered heavy losses!"

"Little junior brother, think thrice!"

Ye Wudao clenched the phoenix jade pendant tightly in his fingers; thinking of Su Yueli falling into the hands of the Holy Court, a nameless rage erupted within him.

"Holy Court, I, Ye Wudao, will never be done with you in this lifetime!"

"Clan Leader, something terrible has happened!" Just then, a scout from the blood clan reported, looking tense.

"Didn’t you see the guest here? So flustered, what a disgrace!" the old Duke glared at the scout.

"Old Duke, please calm down. We found that there are a large number of Holy Court troops appearing less than fifty miles from our clan, at least nearly ten thousand people heading straight for us!" the scout replied.

What?

Nearly ten thousand people from the Holy Court!

Hearing this, the old Duke angrily slammed the table, a furious look on his face, "What audacity, the Holy Court was nearly on the verge of injuring my grandson in the blood clan’s territory some time ago! And now they send ten thousand men, do they want to start a war? Will, quickly summon all the clan’s Marquises, Earls, and above, and prepare for battle!"

"Yes, Grandfather!" Will nodded.

Outside the blood clan.

Nearly ten thousand Holy Court troops approaching the city.

Several dozen figures in white robes stood out prominently, led by a figure in a red robe holding a scepter, Archbishop Gilbert, one of the eighteen red-robed archbishops of the Holy Court!

The entire Brukh family was as if facing a great enemy, bustling to close the castle.

Just then, all the Earls and Marquises appeared on the city wall.

"Hmph, I wonder who it is, turns out to be the famous red-robed Archbishop—Gilbert!" the old Duke said unkindly.

"Hehe, respected Brukh old Duke, good afternoon, long time no see, how have you been?" Gilbert smiled.

"Hmph, speak quickly if you have something to say, what do you want!" the old Duke looked disgusted, as the relationship between the Blood Clan and the Holy Court was extremely poor, almost like fire and water!

"Hehe, old Duke, we from the Holy Court heard that you are harboring people from Dragon Country, is that true?" Gilbert began.

What?

The faces of the blood clan warriors changed.

The old Duke calmly said, "Nonsense! What business does our blood clan have with the people of Dragon Country?"

"Old Duke! That group of people from Dragon Country, there’s one called Ye Wudao, right? This person is wanted by our western Holy Court!" Gilbert said coldly.

"I don’t know any Ye Wudao, you’ve got the wrong person!" the old Duke rebuked.

"Hehe, old Duke, someone has already seen Ye Wudao entering your ancient castle. If you are wise, hand him over. Don’t make it difficult for us! Otherwise, don’t blame us for not being polite!" Gilbert arrogantly stated.

"Gilbert, dare to set foot in my Brukh family and try!" the old Duke roared.

"Hehe, old Duke, you are a crafty old man, you’ve lived a whole lifetime, how can you not be sensible?" Gilbert shook his head and waved his hand, "Enter and search!"

Nearly ten thousand Holy Court soldiers approached the ancient castle.

"Prepare for battle!" the old Duke shouted.

Just then, a voice came, "Old Duke, they are here for me, let me handle this."

The old Duke turned and saw Ye Wudao and others approaching, tense, "No! Young friend Ye, this Gilbert is not simple, one of the eighteen red-robed archbishops of the Holy Court, a formidable battle saint!"

"No worries, old Duke, you have already helped me greatly, I can’t let the blood clan be implicated!" Ye Wudao smiled and then his pupils burst out with a murderous intent, "I have an irreconcilable enmity with the Holy Court!"

Saying this, Ye Wudao appeared at the top of the ancient castle and looked down, "I am the person you are looking for!"
