Chapter 686

She originally also wanted to let Xiao Hu and Xiao Chen go up to try, but now it seems she can only think about it.

Looking at the fragments scattered on the ground, the people of Donghai Cheng didn't know how to describe their feelings at this moment.

What a fine Blood Jade Pillar—how could it just shatter like that?

You should know, the Blood Jade Pillar is extremely tough; ordinary people simply cannot destroy it.

They couldn't figure out the reason.

However, without a doubt, they witnessed another piece of history: a Yun Tribe member directly shattered the Blood Jade Pillar during a bloodline test!

This has never been recorded in history.

This matter is enough for them to brag about for a year—oh, make that a lifetime.

With the Blood Jade Pillar shattered, the one most terrified was Yun He.

The Blood Jade Pillar is sacred and inviolable; as the lord of Donghai Cheng, one of his duties is to guard the Blood Jade Pillar!

If anything happens to the Blood Jade Pillar, he won't get off easy.

Now that the Blood Jade Pillar is in this state, isn't he going to... lose his head?

「No! 」

Yun He dropped to his knees on the ground, his eyes filled with fear.

If it were anyone else, he would surely kill the culprit, but Ye Qingran possesses a full Yun Tribe bloodline—he dares not even look at her, let alone kill her.

Yun Luo stared, eyes unblinking, fixed on Ye Qingran, the suspicion in her mind growing clearer.

「Ye Qingran, it must be her! 」

She murmured softly, her heart burning with anxiety.

A few days ago, she heard that Yun Hai in Beimingzhou had his vital source crippled by a woman named Ye Qingran.

He kept this matter well hidden; few people know about it.

After learning of this, Miss Yun Lan ordered them to constantly monitor Ye Qingran's movements, and to report immediately if she appeared in Nan Yin Zhou territory.

Originally, she hadn't paid much attention to Ye Qingran—after all, what could a person from the Central Region possibly stir up?

But one day, she inadvertently overheard a conversation between Miss Yun Lan and someone else, and only then did she learn that this Ye Qingran was no ordinary person!

She is actually a descendant of Yun Ling!

At that moment, her soul was nearly scared out of her!

Who is Yun Ling?

She was once the brightest star of the Yun Tribe!

But she did her best to pretend she didn't know, for she understood full well that if this got out, the entire Yunfu, and even all of Beimingzhou, would be shaken!

And she herself would surely meet a miserable end!

So she chose to temporarily leave Yunzhong City and came to the remote Donghai Cheng, ostensibly to help Miss Yun Lan keep an eye on Ye Qingran's movements, but actually to minimize her own risk as much as possible.

After all, she knows too much!

She never expected to actually encounter Ye Qingran in Donghai Cheng!

Yun Luo, for a moment, didn't know how to describe her feelings!

Even though she was almost certain the person before her was Ye Qingran, she dared not ask!

She could only pretend not to know.

However, Ye Qingran had already, through her gaze and subtle expression changes, roughly guessed what she was thinking.

She approached Yun Luo. Yun Luo was already terrified inside; seeing Ye Qingran draw near, her legs went weak and she collapsed straight onto the ground.

Others didn't know Yun Luo's thoughts, assuming she was being suppressed by her bloodline.

「It seems you already know my background. 」

Ye Qingran spoke in a voice only the two of them could hear, calmly.

Yun Luo's pupils contracted, her breath freezing.

After reacting, she whispered a plea: 「Please, don't kill me—I swear I won't tell anyone! 」

Yun Luo is a smart person; although she openly belongs to Yun Lan, when faced with life and death or profit, she will waver accordingly.

「But only the dead won't leak secrets. 」 Ye Qingran bent slightly, slowly leaning toward Yun Luo, the curve at the corner of her lips making her otherwise ordinary face breathtakingly beautiful.

Yun Luo instinctively stretched her legs back, thinking of something, she clung to a straw like a lifeline: 「You can't kill me! We both have Yun Tribe blood—if you kill me, you'll die too! 」

Ye Qingran laughed: 「Not bad, your reaction is pretty quick. 」

Saying that, she straightened her body again, smiling: 「But rest assured, I won't kill you. 」

Yun Luo obviously didn't believe her.

Ye Qingran shook her head and said leisurely: 「After all, I still need you to tell Yun Lan that I, Ye Qingran, have come to her... for revenge! 」

Yun Luo's gaze trembled violently.

Ye Qingran said she came to find Yun Lan for revenge?!

She really is the daughter of Yun Ling!

What exactly happened back then?

Why did Miss Yun Ling disappear? Why, knowing full well that Ye Qingran is Yun Ling's daughter and her own niece, does Miss Yun Lan still try to exterminate her?

Yun Luo felt she had unknowingly sunk into deep water, leaving her feeling utterly suffocated.

She is just like any ordinary Yun Tribe member, striving to rise, and certainly does not want to be dragged into such terrifying bloodline strife!

No matter what, as long as she can stay alive—「Are you sure? 」

「Go on. 」

Yun Luo looked at Ye Qingran for a moment, then clambered to her feet and fled this place in utter embarrassment and haste, fearing Ye Qingran might change her mind.

Everyone watched Yun Luo's retreating back, their faces showing incomprehension.

Yun He was still immersed in fear when suddenly he felt a gaze looking at him, his whole body violently trembled.

The person before him, however, is an existence possessing terrifying Yun Tribe bloodline!

Ten sections!

The purest, most genuine Yun Tribe bloodline!

Yun He went "plop" and knocked his head down.

Before such pure Yun Tribe bloodline, he, a Yun-surname person who had been granted, is as humble as dust.

"If anyone from the Yun Tribe asks, just say this Blood Jade Pillar was broken by Ye Qingran, and let them come find me."

Yun He's gaze trembled.

Ye Qingran?

So she is Ye Qingran after all!
