Chapter 147: Chapter 17 Heir Qinghai

Evil Technique, upon hearing these words, everyone present changed color.

In Daxia, it is forbidden for the common folk to learn Evil Techniques; if discovered, the punishment is beheading.

Could it be that the Second Miss Lan from the Lan Residence was using an Evil Technique?

No wonder, even Yu Zhao, who had reached the state of Postnatal Great Success, was powerless in front of her.

"Young Master Hong, what do you think?" Instead of questioning Ye Lingyue, Heir Qinghai turned to ask Hong Yulang.

"Admirable, who would have thought that Second Miss Lan is also an Alchemist." Almost word by word, he forced out this sentence, and a smile uglier than crying squeezed itself onto Hong Yulang’s face, which could rival a woman’s beauty.

After all, Hong Yulang did have some discernment; although he couldn’t see the "Blink Shield," with his cultivation at Innate Perfection, he could still distinguish between an Evil Technique and spiritual power at a glance.

No wonder this bastard dared to challenge Yu Zhao alone; it turns out she was also an Alchemist.

Thinking of the Red Horse that he had just acquired and had to hand over to Heir of Qinghe, Hong Yulang’s organs ached with frustration, especially since Yu Zhao was oblivious to the situation.

"Have you not been humiliated enough? Take your clothes and get lost," Hong Yulang glared at Yu Zhao to prevent him from making matters worse.

The latter shivered, fully aware of Hong Yulang’s character. This failure had already led to his expulsion by Hong Yulang; he could forget about ever mixing in the Hongwu Hall again.

Yu Zhao’s fate had become even more miserable than if he had just admitted his wrongs; Ye Lingyue, Feng Xue, and Liu Cheng didn’t bother to question further.

"The rules of Hongwu Hall are clear: the victor is the king, and the vanquished are the villains. Yulang, you better not break the rules," said Heir Qinghai with a light yet profound tone. It seemed directed at Hong Yulang but was intended for everyone present.

With Heir Qinghai having spoken, none dared to act rashly.

"Liu Cheng, come over. Whatever he did to teach you before, do the same to him now," Ye Lingyue stepped on Yu Zhao’s face and signaled Liu Cheng to begin.

With so many eyes watching, Liu Cheng hesitated at first, but the encouraging look from Ye Lingyue gave him endless strength.

Recalling the humiliation Yu Zhao usually inflicted on him, anger surged to Liu Cheng’s head.

He rushed forward and slapped Yu Zhao several times.

"Liu Cheng, you dare!" Yu Zhao hadn’t finished his sentence when another slap came flying.

Several of his teeth flew out.

He tried to struggle, but felt his limbs pinned down by Ye Lingyue, rendering him immobile.

While Liu Cheng was hitting, Feng Xue also seized the chance to step on him a few times.

That was the face of the son of the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel; they wouldn’t have this chance again in the future.

Watching from the side, Hong Yulang’s handsome face was covered with dark clouds, unspeakably ugly.

These few were hitting Yu Zhao, but in essence, they were slapping his face.

Ye Lingyue, this matter is far from over.

Hong Yulang glared at Ye Lingyue, taking his henchmen and turning away.

"Princely Heir Qinghai, that horse, I will personally deliver it to Hongwu Hall tomorrow." Hong Yulang muttered as he left.

Upon looking at the beaten Yu Zhao on the ground, with a swollen nose and bruised face, whimpering, yet no one stepped forward to help him.

"How satisfying, utterly satisfying." Liu Cheng felt vindicated, and Feng Xue also found it extremely gratifying.

"Ling Yue, you actually turn out to be an Alchemist, this has truly been an eye-opener for us. If not for you, Liu Cheng would have been grievously harmed this time." Feng Xue was half amazed and half sighing.

This is Hongwu Hall, where the strong are revered, and the weak are reviled.

"Miss Second Lan, truly impressive tactics." Everyone had already dispersed, but Prince Heir Qinghai lingered, walking up to Ye Lingyue’s group and cupped his hands in greeting.

Feng Xue and Liu Cheng both consciously stood by the side; they knew someone like Prince Heir Qinghai wouldn’t bother sparing them a glance if not for Ye Lingyue.

"Prince Heir Qinghai, truly a profitable deal you’ve made." Ye Lingyue chuckled, but her eyes conveyed a chill.

She felt she had been duped by this man, who appeared dignified; he seemed neutral but was indeed a true "schemer."

The biggest beneficiary of this competition was indeed Prince Heir Qinghai.

Prince Heir Qinghai suddenly felt seen through; although he is older than Ye Lingyue by several years, he felt somewhat uneasy being scrutinized by this young girl.

"Miss Second Lan, the feeling is mutual, your tactic of substituting one thing for another is also very clever." Prince Heir Qinghai had no wish to antagonize Ye Lingyue.

Earlier, Ye Lingyue had taken advantage of the chaos to stuff a money bag into Yu Zhao’s pants, which he had witnessed.

Though he was unsure when she had stealthily transferred the money bag from Liu Cheng.

It must be said, the style of Miss Second Lan ... is rather rogue.

"Prince Heir Qinghai, today you are the biggest winner. It’s paradoxical that we exhausted ourselves and got nothing; shouldn’t you show some gesture?" Ye Lingyue pouted, refusing to let the topic shift; she was used as a pawn but got nothing in return, such a losing deal was unacceptable to her.

"Indeed, without Miss Second Lan, I wouldn’t have won this Red Horse. How about I give you a gift as a token of appreciation?" Since Prince Heir Qinghai was the legitimate son of the Marquis Mansion and extremely wealthy, and Ye Lingyue was a beauty, he naturally wouldn’t refuse her request now that he intended to establish a connection.

"Feng Xue, Liu Cheng, Prince Heir Qinghai has offered to give us a gift, you guys decide, what gift do you want?" To everyone’s surprise, after hearing this, Ye Lingyue turned around with a smile, seeking opinions from Liu and Feng.

Both of them looked shocked and flattered as they stared at Prince Heir Qinghai.

Prince Heir Qinghai’s smile stiffened, and upon looking at Ye Lingyue again, he saw her eyes gleaming with an amused yet teasing look.

Feeling perturbed, he thought to himself, alright, three gifts then, they couldn’t be too costly anyway.

What Prince Heir Qinghai hadn’t anticipated was, after conferring, the three decided to purchase Beast Eggs.

"Liu Cheng and Feng Xue both lack strength; if we have Beast Pets, next time we encounter someone like Yu Zhao, it would be easier to escape." Ye Lingyue smiled sweetly, walking along the busiest street of Xia Capital with Prince Heir Qinghai and the two others.

While Liu Cheng and Feng Xue were both offspring of Fourth and Fifth Grade officials, they both had several younger siblings, and their fathers came from commoner backgrounds. With funds limited at home, owning the noble-exclusive Beast Pets had only ever been a dream for them.

When the two expressed this desire, Ye Lingyue suggested immediately that they choose to buy several Beast Eggs, which could save on costs and ensure the highest loyalty level once hatched.

Prince Heir Qinghai, of course, found it hard to object, however, he stipulated that each person only had one chance to select, and should the hatched species turn out poorly, that would not be his concern.
