Chapter 960: Heh, It’s Me Again

"Hey, don’t you dare mess around!"

孟音婉 was shocked out of her wits. Her cultivation had been abolished; now she was just an ordinary person. If Dong Fangbai forced himself on her, she had no way to resist. She said:

"Dong Fangbai, I’m warning you, Ye Xiu only told me to do odd jobs, he never said you people can just play with me however you like. If you dare touch me even once, I’ll go straight to Ye Xiu and report you."

"My pants are already off, you..."

Pfft!

Before he could finish, a burst of loud laughter suddenly rang out.

Dong Fangbai and Meng Yinwan turned toward the sound, and saw two heads sticking out of the wall—it was Tang Bo and Dong Puti.

"Sister Dong, you saw it, you heard it—this is Dong Fangbai: a pervert, a punk, an animal. He says he likes you, yet behind your back he’s partying every night; chasing you in the daytime and sleeping with other women at night..." Tang Bo finished laughing and spoke angrily.

"Boring."

Dong Puti was speechless at Tang Bo. She’d thought that him dragging her out here in the middle of the night was to show her some kind of treasure; turns out it was just to watch Dong Fangbai tease Meng Yinwan. She said:

"Get me out of here. I don’t want to see this filthy scene."

"Alrighty!" Tang Bo took Dong Puti and left.

Dong Fangbai stared dumbly at the wall, every brain cell in his head turning into a question mark.

Only after a long moment did he finally react, exploding in rage:

"Tang Sanmiao, you bastard, you set me up..."

The trap Tang Bo laid was precisely to let Dong Puti see what kind of person Dong Fangbai was—that way, Tang Bo would have no romantic rival!

"He plays you like that and you can swallow it? If I were you, I’d absolutely never put up with it."

Meng Yinwan habitually stirred up trouble. With her intelligence, she instantly understood the relationship between Tang Bo, Dong Fangbai, and Dong Puti.

"Are you making fun of me?"

Dong Fangbai flew into a rage.

...

Forest Island!

The Hall Master of Dragon King’s Palace and seven of the Eight Attendants were having a late-night barbecue, roasting meat. All around them were heaps of Demon Clan and Underground City Martial Artists’ corpses.

"Hall Master, Long Kun still hasn’t replied. Could something have happened?"

The sexy, fiery Long Qian asked.

"What could possibly happen?"

The Hall Master laughed and said:

"Ye Xiu is dead. Even if Red Water City has experts, even if all Thirteen Protecters under Huang Quan are there, they are absolutely no match for Long Qian."

"We should call and check anyway," Long Qian said uneasily. "Long Kun is the only one in Dragon King’s Palace who’s proficient in Formation. If something happens to him, we’ll be stuck on Forest Island and in the Underground City with no way out."

The Hall Master thought for a moment, took out his phone, and dialed Long Kun. It rang only once before the call connected.

Seeing this, Long Qian and the seven Attendants all breathed a sigh of relief. The fact that someone answered meant Long Kun was safe.

"Long Kun, how are things on your end? Have you taken Red Water City yet?" the Hall Master asked.

"You must be Stephanie’s big brother, ’Radom’? I really didn’t expect it—you’re the one who’s been hiding the deepest in the Underground City and even across the Eternal Islands: the Hall Master of Dragon King’s Palace."

A hoarse voice came through the phone.

Ye Xiu deliberately altered his voice to avoid exposing the secret that he was still alive.

"You..."

Hall Master Radom and the seven Attendants all turned pale.

"Who are you?" Radom demanded. "Where’s Long Kun? What did you do to him?"

Ye Xiu didn’t answer. He hung up the call!

Radom stared blankly at his phone. Suddenly, he received a text from "Long Kun."

It was a photo!

A photo of Long Kun’s corpse!

"Long Kun is dead!" Radom’s face instantly drained of blood.

The seven Attendants’ mood plummeted to rock bottom; all of a sudden, the barbecue didn’t taste good anymore!

Long Kun was the only one in Dragon King’s Palace who was proficient in Formation. His death meant Dragon King’s Palace was completely trapped on Forest Island and in the Underground City—they weren’t going anywhere.

"I schemed for twenty-six years and finally waited for the Eternal Kingdom to fall into chaos. I thought I could use this chance to sweep away all obstacles and unify the world, but I never imagined we’d be ruined by Red Water City."

Radom snarled, his expression twisted with rage.

"Hall Master, this isn’t the time to get angry or to give up. We should first figure out whose hands Long Kun died by," Long Qian said.

The other six Attendants all chimed in to persuade Radom.

They were very clear on Long Kun’s strength. For someone to be able to kill him, it meant they also possessed the ability to kill them.

"I’ll call Jiang Keqing and ask."

Radom took a deep breath, calmed himself, and dialed the number of Jiang Keqing, Sect Leader of Heavenly Sect.

Very quickly, the call connected!

Before Radom could ask anything, Ye Xiu’s hoarse voice once again came from the phone:

"It’s me again. Surprised? Stop wasting your effort. Jiang Keqing and all Heavenly Sect assassins are already gone. Radom, you’d better wash your neck nice and clean and wait for my Butcher’s Knife."

Having said that, he hung up before Radom could respond!

"Damn it!"

Radom roared in fury, but he still didn’t give up hope.

Instead, he dialed the number of Dragon King’s Palace’s Undercover Agent planted in Hell’s Gate.

Once connected: "Heh heh, it’s me again!"

He hung up right after speaking!

Radom continued calling the other Undercover Agents.

"Sorry, it’s me again!"

Radom kept dialing.

"Still me!"

Next, Radom called every single Undercover Agent. Without exception, the one who answered each call was Ye Xiu.

That included Dragon King’s Palace’s Undercover Agent planted in the Prisoners’ Descendants Alliance.

Ever since Dragon King’s Palace began plotting to take control of the seven armies, they’d gotten in touch with all their Undercover Agents. All of this had been monitored by You Ming, so every one of their lives was known, and all of their phones had ended up in Ye Xiu’s hands.

"Of all the Dragon King’s Palace Undercover Agents planted on King Island, aside from those embedded in Lin Lei’s army of eleven million Martial Artists, the rest are all dead. But the Undercover Agents hidden in that eleven-million-strong army have no idea what happened when Long Kun attacked Red Water City."

Radom spoke in despair, looking half-dead already.

"So what do we do now?" Long Qian asked.
