Miracle Doctor, Abandoned Daughter: The Sly Emperor’s Wild Beast-Tamer Empress-Chapter 517 “The Second Ninth Realm Dan Pill

Hong Ming Yue understands full well she couldn’t ditch away with the Three Life Valley just yet. As for the rest of the people present, they would never help herself snatch the pill out of the man’s hand. They fear the power behind Luo Song’s background, who wouldn’t?

“Ming Yue, why are you angry? You know I dote on you the most. So, I will help you keep this Ninth Realm Reincarnation Dan pill safe in your place. When the time comes, I will come to Da Xia and bring it along as dowry to your family.” Seeing the infuriated appearance of the girl, Luo Song’s lovestruck eyes only grew stronger.

While the girl herself dreaded such an idea, Hong Yu Long (half-brother) and Hong Yu Ying (half-sister) on the other hand only showed a stiff face like they couldn’t believe their ears. This Luo Song is shameless to the extreme. He is clearly threatening us!

It’s not like Hong Ming Yue was blind or something, she knows what the lewd bastard wants. If Luo Song was genuine then she could still bait him along for her own gains, but baiting a shark that would bite at any second wasn’t a smart idea, not even for a scheming and calculative girl like herself.

Continuing on with her fake smile: “Senior Brother, how can you say something like that in front of so many people? Alright, what’s mine is yours, and what’s yours is mine. Once we return to Da Xia and settle our relationship, you can then hand it over to my grandfather.”

The idea instantly sent Luo Song into an exulted mood. Putting away the precious pill so none could snatch it away, the man grew all generous and gave away the rest of the reincarnation pills in the bronze cauldron, leaving only ten for himself. Normally he would never do something so gracious, but just thinking he would soon be able to have his ways with the object of his desire was enough to shirk off any other form of greed.

“Princess Ming Yue, the medicinal ingredients and recipes have all been packed away as per instructed. But this jade tablet, I’m afraid I have no means to break apart the seal surrounding the item.” Speaking here was Manager Chou and the item in his hand was none other than the key to the third cave tunnel.

The former head of the Royal Hospital may be a eight cauldron alchemist, but his courage left a lot to be desired. Besides, this cowardly man never intended to do it alone to begin with. Originally his plan was to combine his powers with Prince Hou Qi to break the seal, but now that the boy has fled with two others in tow, the item in his hand has become a hot potato he couldn’t wait to toss away.

What a useless thing. Sneering with contempt inside, Hong Ming Yue’s opinion of this old fella once again dropped to a new low.

The ice beauty has noticed it as well back when Ling Yue tricked the guardian back at the cave entrance. The real danger wasn’t in the seals protecting these jade tablets, it’s the guardian elder himself! Therefore, she’s perfectly confident in being able of handling the matter if no one else could. But just as she’s ready to step forward to take up the task, the girl seems to have recalled something important.

“We’re going backwards first to meet up with my grandfather.” After being threatened by Luo song just now, her pride was definitely ticked off, hence the reason or her desire to get reinforcement.

Returning from the same path in which they came, the group soon arrived at the fork road where they all began. Everything should’ve been fine, but the horrific scene of the dead soon sent the group into high alert.

“Why are they all members of the Sky Armor Sect? Where’s my grandfather!” Hong Ming Yue exclaims.

She could recognize them all based on the outfits they’re wearing because some of the corpses were already mangled beyond recognition. Fortunately, she didn’t find anyone resembling her grandfather Zhu Ge Yi, otherwise she and her siblings would be franticly searching for the one responsible. However, the urgency wasn’t for the old senior’s safety though, it’s to secure the second Ninth Realm Reincarnation Dan pill that’s in this tunnel!

“Take a look at these hidden weapons and trap holes, they were clearly activated by someone.” After observing their surroundings, Luo Song eventually came before a small pebble that’s next to one of the trap levers.

In this case, it could only mean someone lured the members of the Sky Armor Sect into this area and then activated all of the triggers using these small pebbles.

“We’re moving!” Burning with fire, Hong Ming Yue didn’t need any further speculation, she already knows who’s behind all this.

At the same time over at the end of the northern tunnel, Zhu Ge Yi was a total mess right now. Seeping black blood and a messy appearance overall, this senior looked nothing like his usual self. If anything, he’s no different from a beggar with that ragged appearance.

“You little slut, you dare to scheme against me!” The elder roars, enraged his predicament.

Zhu Ge Yi did in fact locate the precious pill as he wished once the grandpa reached a similar room to what Hong Ming Yue saw. The only difference for him here was that he’s alone. As such, he had no choice but to expend a good portion of his Dan fire to break the seal. Then that’s when the sneak attack from Ling Yue’s team came striking from behind, injuring him and breaking his focus.

Now, the elder’s strength was less than thirty percent of his full power.

“Elder Zhu Ge, if you say it like that then what about the things you and your daughter Zhu Ge Rou imparted on me and my mother? Compared to that debt, the injuries I imparted on you is considered light already. Pity for the disciples of the Sky Armor Sect though, they died for nothing because of a villain like you.” Spreading her hands and shaking her head, Ye Ling Yue’s gaze eventually fell upon the Ninth Realm Dan pill that’s still floating in the air.

Her plan was working out perfectly. First was to have Dao Nu and Lan Caier keep the old bastard busy, then she would use this opportunity to snatch the precious pill, leaving Little Crow and Feng Shen to rummage through the room for the jade tablets to escape afterwards.

“So it was you who caused everything back there!” Zhu Ge Yi has finally got it. The whole reason why so many traps activated at once was because of this brat.

“Hoho, not only that, I also saved one of the last surviving disciples of the Sky Armor Sect prior to coming in here. Zhu Ge Yi, you better pray for your own fortune once you leave the Star Cave.”

In that moment, the recipient’s eye had gone burning red. If he could, Zhu Ge Yi would run up and tear the bitch apart if the opportunity presents itself.

“Why are we talking so much crap. Dao Nu, let’s work together and finish off this old man first.” In a heroic yell, Lan Caier didn’t wait at all and dashed forward with her whip for the second time.

Understanding there’s no time to waste anymore as well, Ling Yue promptly used this opening to swallow one of her invisibility pills to conceal herself. In a jump, her hands had come oh so close to the floating bead to only have it fly right past her fingers.

Holy crap, this thing is sentient and knows how to dodge on its own!

This would be her first time encountering this experience. According to Mr. Red Mist’s codex, artifacts and Dan pills aren’t just sentient once they reach the eighth-grade level, sometimes the rarer ones could even take on the form of a human or animal.

As a result of this unexpected turn of events, the girl and pill were now playing a game of cat and mouse with the others either fighting in the background or running around in search of the jade tablets. But this won’t do for Ling Yue. She knows times of the essence and continuing this chase would just result in a waste of effort.

In a flex of her will, multiple Soul Reaping Chains immediately materializes from her palm and flies straight out for the target.
