Chapter 1416: Chapter 243: Ambushed

With the cooperation of the Four Great Beast Clans of the Eight Desolates, Yun Sheng and Ye Beiming’s secret operations to capture members of the Hei Qilin Tribe on the Bahuang Continent were going much more smoothly.

To remain concealed, Yun Sheng, Ye Beiming, and Bo Bo were all acting separately.

Each time they captured ten members of the Hei Qilin Tribe, Ye Beiming would hand them over to Bo Bo, who would then transport them back to the Wuji Continent.

"About a thousand people have been captured. After conducting experiments, we can extract blood and produce enough antidote according to your requirements. Little Wildcat, things are going pretty well, aren’t they? Why do you still look so worried?" Ye Beiming had just handed over a batch of people to Bo Bo, seeing Yun Sheng still looking downcast.

The Little Wildcat he knew could be cunning, could be fiery, but never this one standing before him, frowning every day with a sour look like an old lady.

"Ye Huli, even if I find the antidote, it’s merely treating the symptoms, not the root cause. The Wuji Continent is vast. As long as the Blood Mist Poison isn’t eradicated, it will continue to infect people." Yun Sheng was worried about this particular issue.

This newly developed antidote, resembling modern scientific cowpox, could indeed treat and prevent the spread of the Blood Mist Poison.

However, this special "antidote" extracted from the Hei Qilin Tribe people’s bodies still had a fierce potency; newborns and especially weak women and children couldn’t use it.

In other words, to completely resolve this Blood Mist contamination, they must find the root cause of the Blood Mist’s formation.

Unfortunately, she had been on the Bahuang Continent for so long without any clues.

"Yun Sheng, you’ve done your best, no need to blame yourself too much. For now, let’s stabilize the situation in the Wuji Continent, and I’ll help you find a way to eradicate the Blood Mist," Ye Beiming comforted.

Yun Sheng managed a weak smile, when a member of the Jiuluan Clan entered.

"Miss Yun Sheng, we’ve discovered two Hei Qilin Tribe caravans, their forces are formidable, and we’re currently understaffed."

"If that’s the case, Ye Huli, let’s split up and act." Yun Sheng had no doubts about it. For this secret collaboration, to avoid exposing several Beast Tribe identities, the young clan chiefs did not appear.

Encountering more formidable Hei Qilin Tribe members, Yun Sheng and Ye Beiming had to take action personally.

After splitting up with Ye Beiming, Yun Sheng and several Jiuluan Tribe members laid an ambush on a broad hill.

The sky gradually darkened, and this area was a boulder hill, with relatively open views.

After waiting for over the hour, a convoy indeed appeared ahead, with the flag of the Hei Qilin Tribe fluttering at the front.

"Attack!" After confirming their identity, Yun Sheng waved her hand, and with several Jiuluan Tribe members, rushed forward together.

The convoy consisted of about seven or eight people, led by a man wearing a bamboo hat.

As Yun Sheng landed, she suddenly felt something was amiss.

"Yun Sheng, I didn’t expect you’d dare come alone to the Eight Desolates." The man’s deep voice caused Yun Sheng to pause.

He removed the bamboo hat, revealing his true face.

"Dugu Xiu? How are you here?" Yun Sheng was shocked.

"Knowing you’re here, of course, I had to come. We should have a good ’chat’," Dugu Xiu gazed at Yun Sheng.

Even in the dark night, this little woman shone brightly like a pearl, captivating all eyes.

A glance around revealed that several Jiuluan Tribe members had retreated behind Dugu Xiu, one of them being the Jiuluan Clan member who had informed her earlier.

That clan member shed their disguise, surprisingly being Ya Ji from the Jiuluan Tribe who had previously clashed with Yun Sheng.

She fell for the trap.

Behind her, Hei Qilin Tribe and Jiuluan Clan members had surrounded her.

"Ya Ji, why did you collude with Dugu Xiu?" Yun Sheng believed Lu wouldn’t betray her; it seemed Ya Ji had leaked information to Dugu Xiu.

"You still ask why? You seductive woman, entangled with the Young Clan Chief isn’t enough, you want to drag down the entire Jiuluan Tribe? The Young Clan Chief is infatuated with you, lost his mind, but I won’t be fooled. Dugu Clan Patriarch, I’ve handed the person to you, why haven’t you killed her yet!" Ya Ji said through gritted teeth.

For days, the Young Clan Chief had captured numerous Hei Qilin Tribe members to help this woman; after learning this, Ya Ji was burning with anxiety, knowing all was because of this woman.

As long as she disposed of her silently, the Young Clan Chief would eventually forget her.

"Hehe, you’re right, the person is in my hands, so keeping any of you is pointless. Men, the Jiuluan Tribe has colluded with the enemy, kill all!" Dugu Xiu coldly declared.

Yun Sheng’s presence on the Bahuang Continent was something Dugu Xiu didn’t want anyone but himself to know, especially not the High Priest.

"What! You clearly promised if I lured Yun Sheng here, you’d spare the Jiuluan Tribe and the Old Clan Chief." Ya Ji was struck by terror, but she would never get an answer from Dugu Xiu.

Several ravenous Hei Qilin Tribe warriors charged forward, and the Jiuluan Tribe members were quickly annihilated.

The desolate plain reeked overwhelmingly of suffocating blood.

"Fools, negotiating with a heartless slaughterer." Yun Sheng watched coldly as Ya Ji and the others were slain, without a shred of sympathy; traitors are undeserving of pity.

"Slaughterer? So, in your eyes, that’s what I am. Why don’t you escape? The Yun Sheng I know wouldn’t be one to easily yield." Dugu Xiu approached Yun Sheng.

"I don’t think you’d give me the chance." Yun Sheng instinctively stepped back.

She didn’t escape because she knew that Dugu Xiu was confident enough to capture her if she tried.

Having fused with the Ancient Qilin King Heart and the Qilin King Relics, Dugu Xiu appeared more imposing.

As Yun Sheng retreated a few steps, an indescribable pressure enveloped her, instantly freezing her steps, unable to retreat further.

Not only that, she felt an intangible force compelling her closer to Dugu Xiu.

This is... Yun Sheng furrowed her brows.

Such strong pressure, this pressure even surpassed what Yun Sheng felt when facing the Netherworld Ghost King years ago.

The situation was worse than she imagined; could it be that Dugu Xiu had gained such immense power?

"Feel it? The power of the Kirin Realm?" Dugu Xiu was a mere step away from Yun Sheng, watching her nearly frozen expression, he suddenly laughed loudly, his voice rang across the open plains, echoing his rampant laughter.
