Miracle Doctor, Abandoned Daughter: The Sly Emperor’s Wild Beast-Tamer Empress
Chapter 598: Heading for New Territory

Translator: Sissy That Walk

After hearing the experience of the mother and the child, Ye Lingyue found some other villagers from Zizhu Mountain who had also fallen into a desperate situation in Xia City. Their words were quite the same.

What brought the catastrophe to the villagers was a kind of spiritual wood called Qiankun Zijin Bamboo.

The wood was used for making Qiankun Bag which could store various things and cost a lot.

On Qingzhou Continent, only top factions or few followers and seniors of the 3 major sects could own Qiankun Bag.

Ye Lingyue remembered that Nie Fengxing had a Qiankun Bag earlier. It was said that the bag was a treasure of Marquis Guanwu’s Manor passed down from generation to generation. It was awarded to Nie Fengxing’s ancestor who had made a great contribution to Hunyun Sect.

Nie Fengxing treasured the bag a lot but Ye Lingyue showed a total disregard.

She owned Red Mist Sky which was much more useful than any Qiankun Bag.

But this was only the case with Ye Lingyue. Qiankun Bag was still a great attraction for other warriors and alchemists on the continent.

Qiankun Bag was quite hard to make. Successful making required not only ingredients but also special methods, methods that were known only by the sects and factions. Even the Alchemist Tower in Da Xia was not able to make Qiankun Bag.

As the ingredient, Qiankun Zijin Bamboo was already quite rare on the continent.

The 3 sects and 9 factions were ready for action after hearing that Qiankun Zijin Bamboo was found on Zizhu Mountain.

The 3 sects and 9 factions acknowledged themselves as the upholders of righteousness and integrity, so they certainly did not want to vie for Qiankun Zijin Bamboo by themselves like the cults.

They just posted a reward. More than 10 pieces of Qiankun Zijin Bamboo could be exchanged for a Qiankun Bag or instructions on martial skills beyond Level 6.

It was exactly this reward that turned Zizhu Mountain into a target of great concern. All of a sudden, a large number of mercenaries, gangsters, evil forces and even some malicious alchemists flooded in there.

The former Arcadia was now turned into a place of endless fighting.

On the winding mountain path, Ye Lingyue and Lan Cai’er were on horseback, followed by a carriage.

Since Zizhu Mountain had a special geographical position and was managed by neither North Qing and Da Xia, Ye Lingyue finally decided not to dispatch the formal army of Da Xia. Instead, she planned to sneak into Zizhu Mountain in advance.

“The so-called major sects and factions were so shameless that they tried to save their reputation by setting such a reward. How can the villagers live on in this case?”

Ye Lingyue and Lan Cai’er were advancing side by side. On their way, Lan Cai’er kept cursing the 3 sects and 9 factions.

On the carriage behind were Little Crow, the mother and the child.

After asking, Ye Lingyue found that the people who first discovered Qiankun Zijin Bamboo were no other than the child and his father. So taking the child would do great help to replaceing the bamboo.

“Before making a complaint, tell me whether you have told your parents about leaving Xia City.” Ye Lingyue interrupted Lan Cai’er.

This time, they were not going to Xixia Plain or North Qing. This time, Ye Lingyue could not tell when they would come back.

Ye Lingyue had intended to go without Lan Cai’er. So she stole away without telling Lan Cai’er. Surprisingly, Lan Cai’er caught up with her before she reached the city gate.

Lan Cai’er shrank her neck and was quite nervous.

Inside the Lan Manor, Lan Yingwu and Mrs. Lan saw the letter left by their daughter in her room.

“Father and mother, the continent is so big that I want to travel around.”

“Damn it! What a naughty child! I have already promised Official Sun to take her for a date!”

Lan Yingwu flew into a rage and Mrs. Lan could not help sighing.

In order to avoid endless blind date, Lan Cai’er left home bravely when she was still in her twenties.

After hearing what happened all through, Ye Lingyue was quite helpless. She could not drive Lan Cai’er back at this time. The two had a talk and finally decided to head for the Ancient Forest first. After that, they would head west through Xixia Plain and reach Zizhu Mountain eventually.

Soon after Ye Lingyue left Xia City, Hong Yulang who had just fled from prison and his grandfather Zhuge Yi headed for the Three Lives Valley to look for Hong Mingyue.

After the riot of the Hong Manor was put down, Hong Yulang’s parents and other relevant people were all beheaded. Hong Yulang survived all alone and he was at a total loss. Fortunately, Zhuge Yi reminded him that he could go to the Three Lives Valley and look for help.

After all, Hong Mingyue was the bride-to-be of Luo Song. As long as she agreed, Hong Yulang and his grandfather could surely stay in the Three Lives Valley.

Under the protection of the Three Lives Valley, they did not need to worry about the manhunt of the court.

With such an idea, Hong Yulang reached the Three Lives Valley.

He waited for many days but did not see Hong Mingyue.

Hong Yulang lost his temper and kicked up a row outside the valley.

“Who dares to shout outside the Three Lives Valley?”

When Hong Yulang was quarreling with others, Luo Song walked out. Hong Yulang was overjoyed to see him, a great savior.

“Brother-in-law, you have finally come. I am looking for Mingyue, but this man said that she is not here and wanted to drive me out. You need to back me up here.” Hong Yulang was in anger.

Luo Song spoke slowly.

“Why did you tell him that Mingyue is not here?”

“But Mingyue...” The follower was in a dilemma.

“Just tell him the truth. Mingyue does not want to see him, not only him, but also anyone from the Hong Manor. You two are just a warrior in the Dan realm and a traitor of Sky Armor Sect respectively. You simply have no right to enter the Three Lives Valley.”

Luo Song’s words stupefied Hong Yulang and Zhuge Yi.

In particular, Hong Yulang’s handsome face was simply distorted.

“Luo Song, how dare you humiliate us? I want to see Mingyue. I am her brother and I don’t believe that she won’t see us.”

Luo Song sneered and waved his hand. Then Hong Yulang and Zhuge Yi were expelled.

After they were driven out, they could not stop cursing.

“Grandpa, what should we do? The Three Lives Valley expels us, and we cannot return to Da Xia.” Hong Yulang was desperate. He did not expect his sister to be so merciless.

“Yulang, take it easy. I have another idea. I have heard that Qiankun Zijin Bamboo was found on Zizhu Mountain. The bamboo can be used to make Qiankun Bag. Earlier, I learned about how to make the bag. We can go to Zizhu Mountain and join an evil force. I am surely able to earn a title.” Zhuge Yi was full of ideas at his age and he soon found another way out.

Then the two headed for Zizhu Mountain.
