Chapter 698 “Impersonate (10)”

After saying this, the chief then firmly walked towards the door where her wife soon followed from behind. Jun Tian Yue (wife) may be quite anxious inside to meet the lass who managed to cure Huan Yin of her condition, but this mother knew she mustn’t go out of line in times like these.

……

Inside the Zhong Manor, Bai Yan had only just opened her eyes after meditating when she overheard the hearty laughs of two familiar seniors. Next thing she knew they had barged into her room with the biggest grin she’s seen so far after getting to know them both.

“Haha, lassie, you really are our blessing. Not only did the medicine you found cure us of our old injuries, it also helped us break into the higher level of the Monarch Rank.”

In truth, these two old fellas were well into their late stages of making a breakthrough back in the day, just that due to the injury they sustained they were unable to complete the task.

With the superior strength, they now have the capital to confront Muzhen.

“It has nothing to do with me Shifu, its entirely your own fortune.” Standing up to greet them, Bai Yan puts on a genuine smile of her own.

But before the three could rejoice in the moment, the door was once again slammed open. Coming in was Goldy in his frantic state: “Mistress, something major has happened!”

Frowning at this: “What’s going on?”

“I and Silvery are twins so I can sense his injury. Mistress, it must be those people who are searching the river, they’ve hurt him. If Lady Tsing Yi were to be found by them…. I fear it will spell her ladyship’s doom!”

If it was a hundred years ago then no one in the Misty Fairy House could be the dragoness’s opponent. However, Tsing Yi’s been seriously injured since that event so she’s unable to fight, let alone defend herself.

“We’re going to the Dragon River now!” Bai Yan loudly proclaims this, her eyes sharp and dangerous.

Zhongnan and Zhongbei were also frowning after seeing their student’s sudden change in attitude: “Yan’er, do you need our help?”

“If you could please.” For the offer, she didn’t reject and kindly accepted it with a nod.

And then, without so much as another word, her figure was gone from the spot, leaving behind only a blurring afterimage in her wake.

“How did Yan’er move so fast? That’s not a speed an Earth Rank cultivator should have.” Despite his own doubts and astonishment, Zhongnan didn’t want to delay and tossed the dilemma aside.

The urgent task at hand was to help his precious disciple save someone important, the rest could wait until they are back.

……

More and more onlookers are beginning to gather around the river bank after news of the dragon’s capture.

For Ho Cui Cui who had always been a nosy person by nature, she of course couldn’t bear to miss out on such a huge event. Taking advantage of the guard’s lack of attention, the former chubby girl snuck out on her own again and came to the sight where she soon noticed a certain female. “Miss Huan Yin!”

Originally Huan Yin herself wanted to ignore the fraudster when she noticed the other side’s arrival, but to be called out in the open, it’s now impossible to pretend. Therefore, the only response was a faint nod to affirm the greeting.

Ignorant to the point of not seeing the lack of reception, Ho Cui Cui actually had the face to get all friendly despite the other side’s unwillingness to chat. “The evil dragon is finally caught, we can now get revenge for ourselves Miss Huan Yin, aren’t you happy?”

“Slaying the dragon for doing evil deeds is fine, but I fear this creature will face a fate worse than death while in Elder Muzhen’s hand.” Sighing at the thought, Huan Yin felt pity for the serpent that’s covered in a pool of blood right now.

As painful as it was for her heart, the girl herself knew this was how the world works. The strong eats the strong, it’s the ironclad rule of every living being.

And regarding this Ho Cui Cui’s claim about getting revenge for them both, Huan Yin wasn’t so sure about that. She may not have evidence yet but it’s just a matter of time before her father discovers the truth, that much the girl was certain.

With each tick of the clock, everyone grew increasingly more wary as they waited in silence around the river bank. But everything eventually comes to an end.

“Elder, we couldn’t find another dragon inside the river.” One of the members of the search group reports after surfacing.
