C248

A dense white spirit vine formed on Yun Qian's fingertip, firmly binding the injured Vicious Beasts.

Following that, he casually threw the Divine Instrument in his hand out, went through the battle circle between Nan Ye and the other two, and stabbed the heart of the other Seventh Rank Vicious Beasts, who was fighting the both of them, to death!

He had been killed in one move without any hesitation.

In the next second, his body also fell down from the sky, with a mouthful of blood spurting out, it looked like he was also severely injured by the Vicious Beasts.

"High Lord!" With their urgent need for help resolved, Nan Ye and Nan Ge stepped forward, "Are you injured?"

Nan Ge gently held onto Yun Qian's body, seeing him spurt out another mouthful of blood, he asked concernedly: "High Lord, are you alright?"

Yun Qian nodded. His eyes were shut slightly and his weak voice plus his already pale face looked as though he was in imminent danger, "No problem …" But all of a sudden, I can't see anything anymore. "

Nan Ge immediately turned and ordered the disciples at his side: "Men, call the doctors who are with you!"

"Yes sir!"

Nan Ye stood at the side and could not help but sneakily throw Yun Qian a supercilious look. He thought, this sickly guy, has died of an illness some day, he's really unworthy to be their Patriarch!

If the First Prince was still here, it would not be this illness's turn to become the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan Patriarch.

But now that the First Prince was no longer here, there was no point in saying anything. The only thing he could do one day, was to avenge the First Prince!

Fox Clan border palace.

The white-haired doctor checked Yun Qian's injuries carefully, Nan Ge pretended to be impatient and asked: "How are High Lord's injuries?"

The doctor could not help but sigh. "High Lord, you are severely injured, and your internal organs are damaged. You will probably need to rest in bed for half a month to heal!"

Nan Ye frowned slightly, he thought, a sickly person is a sickly person, a Seventh Rank spirit beast can also injure him to such an extent!

Yun Qian said indifferently: "Forget it, after all the Vicious Beasts s have been completely suppressed, I will temporarily stay in seclusion in this palace for a few days. After my injuries have recovered a bit, I will return to Fox Clan."

"This old official will go and fry some medicine for High Lord right now." The doctor bowed and left.

Yun Qian coughed out a few mouthfuls of blood, and then told Nan Ge: "Nan Ge … Send someone to return to the Fox Clan and report the situation of this sovereign to the Royal Mother. "

"Yes."

Yun Qian then casually said, "Leave. This sovereign will be in seclusion for a few days to heal his wounds. No one can enter unless summoned!"

"Then... Your subordinate is standing guard outside the door. " Nan Ye did not dare go too far, after all, he still had to watch over Yun Qian on behalf of the Empress, and said, "If High Lord has any orders, please do not hesitate to call this subordinate in!"

"You and Nan Ge, wait outside the hall." Yun Qian didn't reject it either, probably thinking that this fellow was truly troublesome to deal with!

Thus, Nan Ye and Nan Ge could only go out first. When they were going out, Nan Ge sneaked a glance at Yun Qian, as if telling him that he would leave everything to me, so he could leave without having to worry.

After the inner palace door closed, Nan Ye deliberately muttered: "Nan Ge, you're saying … High Lord wouldn't be pretending to be injured just to stay outside for a few more days, right? "

"What are you talking about?" Nan Ge glared at her, "Is it possible that the doctor's words are fake?"

Nan Ye thought about it carefully, that doctor was someone close to Empress, there was no way he would collude with him, it seemed like, that sickly woman had been severely injured.

"I'm just asking casually, what are you so anxious about?"

Nan Ge scoffed, and said with disdain: "As subordinates, the less words we have, the better. The most important thing is to do our best, even if I don't remind you about this, you should know about it, right?"

Hearing her use such a tone to speak to him, Nan Ye was immediately unhappy in his heart: "Nan Ge, aren't you using the fact that High Lord treats you the best, why are you being so arrogant in front of me?"

This Nan Ge, was obviously someone close to Fox Queen previously, but in the short span of a year, he had become more and more interested in High Lord now.

"Don't forget, you were once a protector by the side of Empress, you better not take advantage of her!" Nan Ye reminded her coldly.

Nan Ge did not take his words to heart and snorted: "A servant is not loyal to two masters. Since I have already followed the High Lord, I am now wholeheartedly working for the High Lord. "In terms of inside and outside, I can't compare to you!"

"You!" In Nan Ye's eyes, he really wanted to give this girl a slap, but he tried his best to suppress the anger in his heart, "Heh, good, I really want to see, what benefits can you get by following this sickly person."

"Shut up!" Nan Ge angrily slapped him across the face, and with a pa sound, it landed on his face.

Seeing the two protectors clench their fists like this, the disciples at the side did not dare to breathe too loudly. They wished that they could find a hole and disappear, pretending that they didn't see anything.

If you dare to slap Protector Nan Ye, I'm afraid only Nan Ge can do the same!

"Nan Ge, don't go overboard!" Scratching my red and swollen face, I felt infuriated.

Nan Ge, on the other hand, did not think much of it.

"Nan Ge, don't think that I don't dare to fight you." Nan Ye's eyes were wide opened, and the anger in his heart, seemed to have no place to vent.

This girl was getting more and more arrogant!

"Alright, then you'll have to make a move against me." However, Nan Ge did not have the slightest hint of fear, "If we disturb the High Lord later, you will have nothing better to look at!"

Nan Ye's face darkened, his finger bones curled up tightly, and only waved his fist in front of her eyes, but in the end, he gave up. "Nan Ge, just you wait, it's best if I don't get any leads on you!"

After she finished speaking, Nan Ye walked off in another direction with a complacent smile on her face as the corners of her lips curled up slightly. As long as she saw Nan Ye's unhappy appearance, she would be extremely happy!

Although the soundproofing of the hall door was very good, and Nan Ye's and Nan Ge's voice was not very loud, Yun Qian still heard everything clearly from the conversation between the two.

He understood Nan Ye's thoughts. Nan Ye was previously a death warrior by Yun Lichen's side, but he had personally killed Yun Lichen. This matter, he had probably kept it in his heart.

He knew that because of this huge gap between them, Nan Ye would never be truly loyal to him. Thus, he was extremely wary of Nan Ye.

However, this was something that he needed to worry about in the future. Right now, the most important thing was to make a trip to the Profound Yin Empire as soon as possible.

As a result, he slowly got up and couldn't help but cough lightly as he coughed out some blood. That Seventh Rank Vicious Beasts was truly powerful when it lost control, otherwise the doctor wouldn't have asked him to recuperate for half a month.

He wiped the blood on his lips and turned into a wisp of smoke before disappearing from the inner hall. Even though there were many disciples guarding outside the inner hall, they did not find anything strange.

Only Nan Ge, who was closest to the Inner Palace, felt that something was amiss. He prayed in his heart, High Lord, you must come back as soon as possible, otherwise, if that villain Nan Ye finds out anything, everything will be exposed!

From Nine-Tailed Fox Clan's borders to its west, one was in the eastern part of the continent, and the other was in the western part of the continent, so it was still quite a long journey.

The Mercenary Guild that used to be rather lively had now become empty, like hell, giving off a sinister atmosphere.

Yun Qian did not stop and went straight to the cell where the Mercenary Guild were imprisoning the Spirit Beasts. No one was watching, the moment he stepped in, he heard the noise and saw a shocking scene.

The cells that should have been filled with spirit beasts were filled with humans who had lost their consciousness, and they were packed together so tightly that they couldn't even stand. Looking at them, there were at least a thousand people, and other than mercenaries, there were also ordinary people.

Those humans who had lost their minds all stuck their heads out of the cell when they saw someone coming in. Their eyes were bloodshot as they howled with their mouths wide open, as if they wanted to eat someone!
