Heretic Doctor Useless Consort-Chapter 35

Chapter 35

“I recognize him. He is…” When Grand Secretary Bai saw that Ye Qianli really did not recognize this person, he explained You Ming’s identity very carefully.

Moreover, his tone had also changed from the tone of an elder—when he first called Ye Qianli’s name—to that of someone of the same generation, who was close and even slightly respectful to her.

That’s right. Ye Qianli, who was able to capture You Ming alive in one move, made it impossible for Grand Secretary Bai—the authoritative official of the dynasty—to not take her seriously! It was impossible for him to not respect her from the bottom of his heart.

“Since his identity is so important, it seems like we can get a lot of information out of him.” Ye Qianli’s eyes lit up after hearing Grand Secretary Bai’s explanation.

“You Ming is very loyal to the Seventh Prince of the Black Tortoise Royalty. He is also very stubborn. I’m afraid we won’t be able to get anything out of him.” Grand Secretary Bai was afraid that Ye Qianli would hold too much hope so he could not help but dampen her enthusiasm.

However, Ye Qianli smiled nonchalantly and said, “Please arrange a quiet place for me, Lord Grand Secretary. I’ll ask some questions first.”

“All right, I’ll get the guards to lead the way for you.” Seeing that Ye Qianli obviously did not believe him, Grand Secretary Bai did not say anything else. He only reminded her, “However, don’t kill him. He is still quite valuable. Even if you can’t get anything out of him, he will still be useful.”

“No problem.” Ye Qianli nodded in agreement. She could tell that Grand Secretary Bai did not actually believe that she could get any valuable information from this assassin. It was just that the assassin was caught by her so he felt embarrassed about rejecting her request.

However, Ye Qianli did not explain anyway. When she was dragging the person down the palace gate, she ran into Su Qin and the others face-to-face. When the latter saw her, they were clearly stunned.

Ye Qianli, on the other hand, shifted her gaze away without any emotions in her eyes. She turned around and caught up with the guard who was walking in the front. She did not greet Su Qin, but just as she passed by, Su Qin’s slightly harsh and cold voice rang out: “You, stop right there!”

Even though Ye Qianli ignored her completely, Su Qin still turned around and tried to grab Ye Qianli. “I told you to stop. Are you deaf?”

“…” However, Ye Qianli continued walking forward as if she had not heard anything. It was just that she had only taken a few steps when Su Qin rushed up to block her path.

At this moment, Su Qin was in an extremely sorry state. Her entire head was covered in blood and dirt, and she did not have the slightest bit of the image of an upper-class lady from the dynasty. Her pair of eyes was, as usual, filled with viciousness the moment she saw Ye Qianli. Hence, it caused her image to crumble further.

Such a Su Qin, no matter how one looked at her, was a vicious woman! A shrew that spewed verbal curses in the streets.

Even though her facial features were beautiful and one could even tell that she had been more beautiful than Su Lianhua when she was young, it could not make her features look attractive or beautiful any longer.

“Let me ask you—since you had awakened your talent, why did you hide it from me and your father? Are you happy letting the entire dynasty see your parents make a fool of themselves? Are you happy?”

“Also, since you are a talent cultivator of the Nine Mystical Extraordinary Fire, why did you hurt your younger cousin so maliciously? Is it not enough that she has been bullied by you since she was young, that you still want to ruin her whole life like this? How can your heart be this callous?” Su Qin’s eyes were filled with condemnation as she stared at Ye Qianli.

However, when Ye Qianli heard this, the corners of her lips curled up into a faint smile. “With regards to the first part, that’s right… I’m very happy. As for the second part, destroying her life is too easy. Actually, I want to kill her.”

“You…” When Su Qin heard these ‘b*stardly’ words from Ye Qianli, her eyes turned red with anger. More so, her hands were clenched into fists as if she was about to attack.

“Lastly, I’ll have to trouble you to make way for me, Aunty. Otherwise, I’ll have to use violence against you,” Ye Qianli reminded lightly.

“You dare!” It seemed as though this was the only phrase that Su Qin had left to say. However, just as her voice fell, a black light suddenly swept out from Ye Qianli’s sleeve and directly struck Su Qin’s face with a ‘pa’ sound! It sent her flying several feet away.

Such a critical hit!

Not only did it knock Su Qin out, but it also stunned Grand Secretary Bai who was watching this scene from above. However, he was not stunned because Ye Qianli threatened to hit her mother. Instead, it was because he realized that it was a black box that had hit Su Qin.

What was even stranger was that he could feel an aura of ire from this box! It was a very spiritual aura of anger. Moreover, this ordinary-looking box was the venerable item that had transformed into the crescent blade just now.

“D*mn it! This mother of yours is a stepmother, right? Otherwise, she must be a retard! How did you get such a mother? If she’s your biological mother, this poorly-functioning brain problem of yours should have been inherited from her.”

At the same time, the magic box that had hit Su Qin was extremely angry and kept expressing its anger to Ye Qianli.

Ye Qianli: “…” She just wanted to say that… It’s fine to scold someone, but could it not defame her along the way? However, she really didn’t understand why Su Qin didn’t like her so much either.

In fact, the Ye Qianli of the past had indeed checked before. Unfortunately, she was really Su Qin’s biological daughter…

Besides Su Lianhua’s instigation, the biggest reason why Su Qin hated this biological daughter of hers so much was probably because Su Qin had a difficult labor when she gave birth to Ye Qianli. Aside from that, it was consequently said that she could not give birth anymore.

“Even if she can’t have another child because of this, she shouldn’t hate her biological daughter this much. After all, that daughter might be her only child.”

Ye Qianli glanced at Su Qin, who had been knocked out, but felt that she still could not understand.

However, all this had nothing to do with her anymore. She no longer cared whether Su Qin liked her or not. All she wanted to know now was how that grandfather in her memory was faring.

“Report—”

However, before Ye Qianli could drag the captive You Ming away and interrogate him, an urgent report came from outside the Sacred Palace. “Report! Urgent report from the Northern Region—”

“Open the palace gate!” Grand Secretary Bai immediately shouted.

“Report, urgent report from the Northern Region…” An urgent report came from outside the Sacred Palace. The messenger quickly rushed into the palace as the palace gates opened. Then, he quickly galloped towards the center of the palace.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

At the same time, an earth-shattering boom erupted from the northern city gates as a vast expanse of dazzling and piercing black light swept through the Vermilion Bird city like a black mist.

At the same time…!

“Your Majesty, the Northern Region is urgently reporting that the Northern Territory King has been defeated and captured while the entire Northern Region has lost! The Black Tortoise Dynasty’s million-strong army, with the Seventh Prince’s 50,000 Black Armor troops as the vanguard, has marched straight into our Vermilion Bird Dynasty!” The messenger, who had rushed into the Central Palace with the urgent report at hand, fell to the ground with a ‘bang’ after saying that.

This messenger, whose entire body was covered in blood, used his last breath to complete his final mission. After he finished speaking, he died on the spot, looking extremely tragic…

“Hua—” However, the court was in an uproar because of his report!

On the other hand, Ye Qianli—who was in a hurry to make an urgent report—was stunned at the entrance of the central palace because of this. Defeated? Captured? Her grandfather had been defeated and captured?

Impossible! She didn’t believe it.

“How could this be? The Northern Territory King has guarded the frontier of the northern region for decades and has never been defeated!” At the same time, many officials who heard the urgent report could not believe that this was true either.

“Your Majesty, please mobilize your troops. With my Eastern Sea Lion army, we will kill every single one of the Black Tortoise dogs.” The Eastern Sea King immediately requested to take revenge as his body exuded a stern killing aura.

“Your subject agrees. I am willing to bring the Western Wilderness’ armored warriors to the north!” The Western Wilderness King immediately requested.

“I agree…!” Countless military officials agreed one after another and expressed their willingness to lead the troops into battle in the north. However, the three urgent reports immediately became an extreme emergency.

“Report—! General Ye was shot down from his horse—”
