Chapter 612: Light of Fortune's Qi

It seems they have already found Ye Qingran.

Ling Xueyao gazed at the Saint's Light not far away; there were exactly three beams, undoubtedly released by the assassins jointly dispatched by Huangjin City and Dan Valley to hunt down Ye Qingran.

To be safe, they have mustered a luxurious lineup this time, aiming to kill Ye Qingran in one fell swoop amid the ancient battlefield ruins.

"I thought the Three Saints wouldn't get a chance to act, but I didn't expect Ye Qingran to have some skill!" Nangong Han said coldly.

"It must be because of that Ye Xiu!" Nan Yan said, together with Ling Xueyao and her group.

Ling Xueyao and Nangong Han both agreed.

Ye Qingran's strength is at most Profound Emperor; it's impossible to force the Three Saints to act. It must be because of Ye Xiu that the Three Saints were compelled to act.

Ling Xueyao said: "Indeed, Ye Xiu could silently take the position of Guest Minister Elder at the Divine Prefecture Academy; without some ability, that's impossible! In that case, Ye Xiu is also a Saint!"

However, Ye Xiu would never have imagined that they dispatched three Saints this time; even if his strength were greater, he would absolutely not be a match for the Three Saints.

Come on, let's go take a look!

Because it wasn't far, Ling Xueyao and the others quickly arrived at the volcano's rim.

Meanwhile, the contest between Ye Qingran and the Three Saints had not yet truly begun.

The three Saints surrounded Ye Qingran in the middle, attempting to overwhelm her with the Saints' Will.

Although Ye Qingran is very likely also a Saint, she is absolutely no match for the three Saints. Under the shock of their Saints' Will, she has no room to fight back!

But they failed.

No matter how mighty their Saints' Will, like mountains, Ye Qingran remained unmoving; in the end she lightly shook her head, flicked her sleeve, and the Saint's corpse that had lain on the ground exploded in place, flesh and blood flying, turning to dust!

All three Saints were stunned; Ye Qingran actually transferred their Will onto the corpse, causing it to explode!

This is absolutely an insult to them!

Compared to surprise, they felt more anger.

Ling Xueyao and the others who had just arrived missed the scene of the Saint's corpse exploding, and did not realize that Ye Qingran had already slain a Saint before they arrived.

They only saw Ye Qingran still lively and active, and immediately frowned.

Ye Xiu isn't here, yet Ye Qingran has managed to survive under the siege of the three Saints?

How on earth did she manage that?

Ling Xueyao! Nan Yan! Nangong Han!

Seeing these three appear, Hong Wu narrowed her eyes, releasing a chill all around.

Qin Feixue and the other few disciples of the Renxu Class also had solemn expressions.

Ling Xueyao and her husband really have gall, daring to send people to infiltrate the ancient battlefield ruins to assassinate Instructor Ye!

Do they even realize this isn't Huangjin City or Dan Valley, but the Divine Prefecture Academy!

Ling Xueyao gave Hong Wu a glance, not taking her seriously at all.

Ye Qingran, I never expected you to be this capable!

She had thought that when she arrived, she would see Ye Qingran's corpse!

Third Elder, what are you doing? Why haven't you killed Ye Qingran yet!

Nangong Han demanded in a low voice.

Now everyone realized that the black‑clad, black‑kerchief‑veiled old man, the leader of the assassins, was Huangjin City's Third Elder!

The Third Elder furrowed his brows, unsure how to explain to Nangong Han.

If he directly said Ye Qingran killed ten Elders in a single move, Nangong Han would absolutely not believe it—after all, even he himself still dares not believe it!

Seeing the Third Elder hesitate, Nangong Han felt a premonition of ill omen: 'What on earth happened? Speak quickly!'

The Third Elder gritted his teeth: 'Little City Lord, Ye Qingran killed ten Elders!'

What?!

Nangong Han was startled.

The Ten Elders are Saints, yet Ye Qingran is merely a Profound Emperor—how could she be their match?

Third Elder, what joke are you pulling!

The Third Elder's face showed bitterness; he knew the Little City Lord wouldn't believe him.

So you are the Little City Lord of Huangjin City; I have long admired your name!

Elder Wu clasped his hands, the corner of his mouth curling into a nonchalant arc.

Who are you?

Only then did Nangong Han notice that besides Ye Qingran's group and their own people, there were several others he didn't recognize.

We come from the Yunfu of Nan Yin Zhou; this is the Young Master Yunhai of our Nan Yin Zhou Yunfu!

Elder Wu pointed to Yunhai.

Yunhai's whole body ached right now, especially below; seeing Nangong Han and the others looking at him, he could only force himself to stand, give a slight nod, and maintain an aloof demeanor.

Nangong Han's originally dismissive attitude turned solemn upon hearing they were from the Nan Yin Zhou Yunfu.

You should know that although Beimingzhou and Nan Yin Zhou are equally renowned, in fact the overall strength of Nan Yin Zhou surpasses that of Beimingzhou!

Especially the three great hidden clans of Nan Yin Zhou are unfathomable; even Huangjin City has to avoid their edge.

These people, are they from the Nan Yin Zhou Yunfu?

So you are friends of the Yunfu; I wonder why you have come to my Beimingzhou's Divine Prefecture Academy?

Elder Wu hid nothing, openly admitting, 'Naturally we are here to seek the Chaos Qing Lian Seed.'

Nangong Han also found it not strange.

The Chaos Qing Lian Seed is a divine object; who wouldn't want it? For the Nan Yin Zhou Yunfu to seek the Chaos Qing Lian Seed is quite normal.

However...

May I ask what your relationship with Ye Qingran is?

"Rest assured." Elder Wu knew what Nangong Han was worrying about, "Our purpose is the same as yours!"

Nangong Han let out a sigh of relief, and a flash of strange light flickered in his eyes.

It turned out that Ye Qingran had no close ties with the people from Yunfu of Nan Yin Zhou; on the contrary, they were enemies!

"Since that's the case, how about we join forces to kill her?"

"Fine!"

In an instant, Ye Qingran became the target of everyone's arrows again.

The Saint's Light just now not only drew Ling Xueyao and a few others, but also attracted other Academy disciples from all directions.

They rushed toward the Saint's Light, only to unexpectedly witness this scene:

Ye Qingran, her children, and the Renxu class disciples faced a group of masters from Huangjin City and Dan Valley.

Even more terrifying, among those masters from Huangjin City and Dan Valley were three Saints!

The Saint's Light earlier was clearly emitted by them.

In front of the three Saints, Ye Qingran and the others seemed so insignificant!

"Ye Qingran, next year's today will be your death anniversary!" Ling Xueyao's eyes shifted to the two children, "Oh, wait, it's the death anniversary you share with your children!" After speaking, Ling Xueyao covered her mouth with a faint laugh that grew louder, eventually shaking like a flower branch in laughter.

My children, mother will avenge you!

Ye Xiaohu and Ye Xiaochen drove you out of the Academy; mother will make them pay with their lives!

"Ling Xueyao, you damned scoundrel!"

Hong Wu's eyes turned blood‑red the moment she heard Ling Xueyao intend to kill Xiao Hu and Xiao Chen.

Ling Xueyao was unfazed.

Even though many Academy disciples were watching from around, she no longer needed to restrain herself.

After all, she is the prized jewel of the Lord of Dan Valley, and her husband will be the future lord of Huangjin City!

She, Ling Xueyao, wants to kill someone; who could stand in her way?

Moreover, Ye Qingran and her two little bastards deserve to die!

"Kill Ye Qingran for me; I want her body torn to pieces!"

Ling Xueyao's cold voice echoed among the mountains.

The Academy disciples who had arrived nearby heard it and felt their hearts clench.

Instructor Ye, although a Pill Emperor and also a Beast Taming Grandmaster, her cultivation is only that of a Mysterious Emperor.

Among ordinary people, a Mysterious Emperor is already a top‑tier elite, but before Saints it is utterly insufficient.

If they had just witnessed Ye Qingran kill a Saint with a single move, they probably wouldn't think that way now!

The brilliance of the three Saints was dazzling, making it impossible to look directly at them.

"It's over! Instructor Ye is doomed this time!"

A disciple voiced such a sigh, believing Ye Qingran had no chance of victory.
