Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend-Chapter 961 - 21: Careless Silence: Eliminating Witnesses

Chapter 961: Chapter 21: Careless Silence: Eliminating Witnesses

Just as Little Di Shen hadn’t returned yet, Ye Lingyue planned to first use these twenty-some low-level spirit stones to see if she could replenish the spiritual power consumed by the Cauldron Spirit.

Just as Ye Lingyue left the Clothes Washing Workshop with the low-level spirit stones, several figures sneakily followed behind her.

When Ye Lingyue reached a secluded place, those figures suddenly surrounded her.

"Ye Lingyue, stop right there."

Ye Lingyue slowly turned around.

She had long sensed someone stalking her, just from the footsteps, she knew it was that group of old miscellaneous servants who had been making things difficult for her.

"You’ve been following me all this way, what exactly do you want?"

Ye Lingyue saw Fang Rou and the five or six miscellaneous servants behind her.

Three men and two women, they tightly surrounded Ye Lingyue.

Fang Rou was somewhat surprised to hear that Ye Lingyue had already discovered them.

But thinking that Ye Lingyue was punished to the Clothes Washing Workshop because she didn’t have the Power of Reincarnation, and if she was really setting a trap, why would she bring people to such a desolate place?

Aside from them, there wasn’t another soul in sight, even if they were to kill Ye Lingyue now, no one would come to help.

Moreover, they outnumbered her, surely they wouldn’t be afraid of someone who wasn’t even on the Reincarnation First Path.

"Heh~ What do we want? That’s something I should be asking you. Don’t you know the rules of the Clothes Washing Workshop? In the first month, newcomers must pay respect money from their spirit stones to the seniors. Earlier, I saw you collecting spirit stones from other newcomers, if you know what’s good for you, you’ll hand them over obediently." Fang Rou grew more brazen, eyeing the bulging spirit stone bag in Ye Lingyue’s hand with greed.

"Respect money, right? Sure, I can give it to you." Unexpectedly, Ye Lingyue agreed readily and pretended as if she was going to toss the bag over.

Fang Rou didn’t expect things to go so smoothly and instinctively reached out to catch it.

But the bag, once separated from her hand, paused eerily in the air, and then swiftly flew back into Ye Lingyue’s hand.

Instead, a fierce light burst from Ye Lingyue’s eyes.

Her body slightly arched, shadows heavy on her ten fingers, like a sudden rainstorm.

The fourth needle of the Ghost Sect Thirteen Needles, Ice Seal the World, had already pierced toward Fang Rou’s fatal point.

That needle seemed insignificant at first, but when it landed, Fang Rou’s whole body stiffened.

It felt as though all her blood had stopped flowing, her body turned rigid and cold, and a breath of death engulfed her consciousness in an instant.

She fell straight to the ground, still in the posture of trying to snatch the spirit stone bag. Fang Rou’s companions were shocked at the sight.

Looking again at Ye Lingyue, still small and thin, the aura she emitted, having just easily killed Reincarnation Second Realm’s Fang Rou, didn’t resemble the demeanor of a powerless waste.

Those people knew something was wrong, and immediately scattered like a trapped beast, but Ye Lingyue wasn’t about to give them a chance to escape.

With a step of her foot, Ye Lingyue’s body moved like a butterfly through a spring flower bed, and several more fingers fell.

The Little Infinite Finger fell like a sudden rain, "bang bang" and several more sounds, two more people fell.

The remaining three, eyes full of fear, turned to flee, only to hear a whistling sound from Ye Lingyue’s throat.

From the shadows, three figures sprang out.

Little Zhiyo, Little Wuya, and Little Qiu Tian each used their divine skills, and almost simultaneously, the bodies of the three were killed, thrown heavily to the ground.

Ever since Ye Lingyue entered the Lonely Moon Sea, to prevent her little beasts and spirit plants from being discovered, she had kept them in the Hong Meng Heaven.

The three little guys naturally didn’t want to miss this rare chance to stretch their bones.

It was the afternoon, the brilliant sun shining brightly on the ground.

"Little Qiu Tian, I’ll leave these bodies for you to dispose of."

Ye Lingyue looked at the six who had fallen lifeless to the ground, walked forward, and searched their bodies, finding a few bags, leaving the rest to Little Qiu Tian to feast on.

In no time, the bodies disappeared without a trace.

Ye Lingyue opened Fang Rou’s bag, which contained more than thirty low-level spirit stones; Fang Rou was quite the tyrant of the Clothes Washing Workshop, often bullying other older servants.

As for the others, their spirit stones didn’t amount to as much as Fang Rou’s; the five combined had only about twenty-some stones.

Altogether, the amount of low-level spirit stones was over seventy. Ye Lingyue, needless to say, accepted them all with a smile.

After securing the spirit stones, Ye Lingyue discovered a small stone token and a letter in Fang Rou’s pocket.

She opened the letter, glanced at it, her eyes filled with understanding.

It turned out, Fang Rou was just a pawn, the real mastermind had other intentions.

The letter said that if Fang Rou acted according to their orders, not only would they give her twenty low-level spirit stones as a reward, but they would also provide a "trading order" that only Outer Sect Disciples were eligible to have.

With this trading order, Fang Rou could enter the market of Lonely Moon Sea and buy things that were hard to get as a miscellaneous servant.

Fang Rou was evidently ambitious, unwilling to remain a servant forever, tempted by the trading order, she had foolishly planned to secretly kill Ye Lingyue, only to be wiped out instead in an unexpected turn.

Unfortunately, the letter was anonymous, so Ye Lingyue couldn’t determine who wrote the letter, other than knowing it was penned by an Outer Sect Disciple of Lonely Moon Sea.

Ye Lingyue put away the trading order and carefully stored the letter.

She had a hunch that the person behind the letter might be connected to the one who had killed Little Di Shen.

Sooner or later, she planned to expose the true identity of that person and make them pay dearly.

After making sure the scene was clean without leaving a trace, Ye Lingyue headed back to her place.

Ye Lingyue realized she now had about seventy low-level spirit stones. She wondered if they would be enough to revive the Cauldron Spirit.

With a mindset of giving it a try, Ye Lingyue picked up one of the spirit stones and held it in her hand.

The spirit stone was slightly smaller than her fist, and as soon as she gripped it in her right hand, she felt the Qian Cauldron Seal, which had been quiet for a long time, suddenly pulse.

Following that, a stream of spiritual power that felt incredibly soothing began to continuously flow into her palm, nourishing the parched Qian Cauldron Seal.
