CHAPTER 623: CHAPTER 492: SNATCHING POINTS

Being the daughter of the Alliance Hierarch, Song Jingyun had learned quite a few tricks from her mother since she was young.

So when she sent several people to assist Dao Ge in a prison break and secretly ordered the killing of a few Demon Sect disciples, framing Lan Yingwu for it, sure enough, Dao Ge, protective as always, led his men to launch a night attack on the camp, severely injuring Lan Yingwu and his subordinates.

However, Dao Ge ultimately did not kill Lan Yingwu. Upon his return to the Demon Sect, he sulked for many days, and she pretended to know nothing about it.

Until she heard that wretched woman Lan Cai’er, never giving up, managed to find the Demon Sect.

She then had her maid secretly bring Lan Cai’er inside, without Dao Ge’s knowledge. Just in time, she caught Dao Ge and her in an intimate moment, and Dao Ge even uttered that sentence.

"I have never liked her. It was she herself who was cheap, throwing herself at every man she saw."

Song Jingyun, getting her wish, watched as the heartbroken Lan Cai’er turned and left.

But her pleasure did not last long because when Dao Ge discovered Lan Cai’er, in that moment of turning around, his expression changed.

The distraught look on his face has been piercing Song Jingyun’s heart to this day.

So many years had passed and just as she and Dao Ge were about to marry, Lan Cai’er disturbingly reappeared like a lingering ghost.

In Song Jingyun’s eyes, shadow and light swirled.

"Lady Xia, I’m afraid you are mistaken. I don’t think Miss Lanlan is that type of person. She and Deputy Captain Sha of Emperor’s Slaughter make a pair. You know, they even made quite a noise in the tent last night. It’s a pity that Deputy Captain Sha is so popular in Mercenary City. It’s just too bad for her, having already been claimed." As Song Jingyun spoke, her face reddened.

Looking at her expression, there was not a trace of hatred towards Lan Cai’er.

"What, that little vixen even hooked up with Deputy Captain Sha. She has always been particularly skillful in bed. That Miss Hei Yue and Lanlan, could they be vixens? So ugly, yet they managed to hook Emperor and Sha. Humph, but she won’t be proud for long. If the admirers of Deputy Captain Sha knew about this, ten Lanlans wouldn’t be enough." Seeing that she was unable to provoke Song Jingyun, an annoyed Xia Meng, in her heart, once again conceived a venomous plan.

After saying goodbye to Song Jingyun in a hurry, she left the tent.

After Xia Meng left, the "shyness" on Song Jingyun’s face vanished completely.

She wanted to make Lan Cai’er ruined and disgraced, unable to establish herself in the Mercenary World.

When Ye Lingyue and Lan Cai’er returned to the camp with a washed and groomed Long Baobao, daylight had already broken.

The people of "Blood Drink" also emerged from their tents.

Song Jingyun, still with Dao Ge, was intimately talking about something.

The Xia Family’s Three Sisters were whispering among themselves and, upon seeing Ye Lingyue and Lan Cai’er, glared at the two women with a mix of fury and contempt.

Ye Lingyue also spotted Hong Yulang, who had been injured the day before and had not shown his face since. He was currently standing alongside Zhuge Yi.

His face was wrapped in thick gauze, and it seemed like his wound was not treated properly, with discolored blood continuously oozing out.

"Miss Hei Yue, you are skilled in medical arts. May I ask you to take a look at Yulang’s wound?" Zhuge Yi had nearly fainted from shock yesterday evening when he saw the disfigured Hong Yulang returning.

But he was no match for Bo Qing and could only help Hong Yulang bandage his wound.

However, Hong Yulang’s wound worsened last night, causing him great pain, and the poison in the wound continuously corroded the surrounding skin. If this continued, Hong Yulang’s face would end up looking like a skull.

He begged Bo Qing for an antidote, but Bo Qing just dropped one sentence.

"There is no antidote."

Returning to Mercenary City now would take a whole day and night, and Xia Family’s Three Sisters would not treat the injury. Left with no choice, Zhuge Yi could only seek the only one who knew treatment, Hei Yue.

"You are not on the same team as me. Why should I treat you?" Ye Lingyue glanced at Hong Yulang, unmoved.

"Grandpa, I told you not to ask her!" Hong Yulang glared at Ye Lingyue. He despised this woman.

"Miss Hei Yue, Blood Drink and Emperor’s Slaughter are now on the same boat. I hope you can do me a favor and take a look at him," Dao Ge did not know what exactly was going on between Hong Yulang and Bo Qing.

But he could tell that Hong Yulang’s face was ruined by Bo Qing.

As for the specific reason, Bo Qing was too lazy to say, and he did not ask, but Hong Yulang was an old friend of Lady Jingyun’s mother.

"Hei Yue, since Captain Dao has spoken, why don’t you help out and take a look? But treating an illness shouldn’t be free, right, Captain Dao?" Yan Jiu was standing next to Lan Cai’er, and as he spoke, he leaned toward her with a slouch, as if boneless.

Lan Cai’er gave him a glare, but he responded with an affectionate wink.

Seeing this, Dao Ge’s pupils slightly contracted.

"You’re right, it is only natural to pay for treatment. Hei Yue, name your price."

"Since that’s the case, I won’t be courteous. I neither lack nor care for real silver, which can’t be used within Mercenary City. If you want me to treat them, I want all of his Mercenary Points," Ye Lingyue could hear that Yan Jiu was setting a trap for Hong Yulang to fall into.

Mercenary Points?

Both Dao Ge and Bo Qing glanced sideways slightly.

Having worked for Mercenary City, Mercenary Points could be obtained through several channels: by completing official missions, through gifts, or by plundering.

And these were mostly legitimate means.

They just didn’t expect Ye Lingyue to demand all of Hong Yulang’s Mercenary Points outright.

Having arrived at Mercenary City a month before Ye Lingyue and with the help of Lady Jingyun, Hong Yulang later joined "Blood Drink" and took on some advanced missions. In just over a month, he had indeed earned quite a few points, roughly calculated to be over ten thousand, ranking him in the three hundreds on the individual points leaderboard.

"Dream on, I won’t give you a single point," said Hong Yulang, eyes red with anger.

"Then just wait for your face to turn into a skull, as they say, a beauty’s bones are white but only for an instant. A handsome man turning into a skull, now that’s a scene to look forward to," Ye Lingyue didn’t bother to say more.

"Hold on," Zhuge Yi became anxious. "Yulang’s points can’t be given to you, but you can have mine. I have even more points than he does."

His daughter was dead, and the only two living granddaughters refused to see him. Now, he had only one grandson left, Hong Yulang.

For Hong Yulang, it wasn’t just Mercenary Points he was willing to part with, even his own life, he would gladly stake.

"Alright, then it’s settled. First, hand over the points, then I’ll start the treatment," Ye Lingyue said, unceremoniously taking the Mercenary Points Card from Zhuge Yi’s hand.

Furious, Hong Yulang clenched his teeth on the side, but he simply had no means to interfere.
