God of War Ye Fan: Sexy sister-in-law insisted on marrying me - Chapter 1248: Entering the Game Personally! Using Myself as Bait!

Chapter 1248: Chapter 1248: Entering the Game Personally! Using Myself as Bait!

On the city wall, it’s said there’s a post every three steps, a lookout every five steps, but that’s too conservative; the place is packed tightly with people. The key is that those masters on the wall, each of their strengths is not low, at least above the Golden Core Realm.

Seeing the situation in front of her, Gong Shu couldn’t help but exclaim, “This is too exaggerated! Husband, what should we do? Should we force our way in directly?”

Given the situation, wanting to force in without being noticed seems quite challenging.

Although Ye Fan can indeed teleport, using Divine Concealment to hide his aura, bringing Yu Linglong and Gong Shu along, under such a powerful defense, trying to enter unnoticed is still challenging.

But Ye Huan’s focus wasn’t there; Ye Fan released his perception and discovered something amiss.

Although it was just a faint feeling, Ye Fan still discovered that it seemed a few incredibly powerful masters were hiding inside An City, their strengths at least surpassing the Sixth Rank of the Refining Void, and several of them emitting very strange auras.

The strange aura even made Ye Fan feel some fear, as if sensing the breath of death. There was a faint red glow in front of Ye Fan’s Devil’s Pupil, a signal of danger.

This time, Ye Fan had left Li Mu at Qingyuan Sect to hold the fort, with only Yu Linglong, Gong Shu, and Tai Cang stealthily lurking high above for alert.

Without absolute assurance, Ye Fan dared not act rashly. Even though Ye Fan’s strength is sufficiently powerful, facing so many strong foes from Mirror Moon Palace alone, no matter how skilled Ye Fan is, exhaustion could be deadly.

Ye Fan brought Yu Linglong here primarily to see what had really happened at Mirror Moon Palace, to find the Palace Master of Mirror Moon Palace and Yu Linglong’s mother, and after rescuing them, have them mobilize the internal forces of Mirror Moon Palace, then to contend against evil spirits and the Soul Hall infiltrators; that was the proper method.

Ye Fan’s expression darkened slightly, then he spoke, “No, we certainly won’t go in by force; this time we’ll deliberately expose ourselves.”

Ye Fan’s words made Yu Linglong exclaim, “Deliberately expose ourselves? They’ve been digging everywhere to find us; it’s already been so hard to escape their pursuit using the Puppet Zombie Paperman, and now you want to expose us to them voluntarily? Isn’t this throwing ourselves into the net?”

Ye Fan shook his head, “When I say expose, I mean in another way; we’ll let them capture us on purpose and use their greed to take us to where we want to go.”

On the way to An City, Ye Fan and Yu Linglong, through Qingyuan Sect’s intelligence system and inquiries in nearby cities, roughly learned that recently An City has been frantically capturing experts above the Golden Core Realm, to send them to the so-called Blood Pool for refining.

Moreover, the leadership at the Mirror Moon Palace headquarters seems to have set a price; capturing an expert above the Golden Core Realm and sending them to the Blood Pool starts at 500,000. For experts in the Refining Void Realm, the price can reach up to 5 million crystal coins.

With a bounty of 5 million per head, no strongholds guarding the city walls could resist the temptation.

Ye Fan gave a devilish smile and then tore a few clothes into disorder, smearing some fresh blood on himself, and signaled to Yu Linglong and Gong Shu with his eyes, “Let’s go!”

At this point, there was no need for Ye Fan to say much more; Gong Shu and Yu Linglong, both extraordinarily intelligent girls, instantly understood what Ye Fan intended — to use themselves as bait, deliberately letting those strong men capture them.

As soon as they reached the city gate, the guards on the city wall stopped them, “Halt! Who are you? What’s your purpose?”

Ye Fan clutched his chest, staggered forward with a face of distress, gasping while speaking to the leading guard, “Brothers, we were chased; the pursuers are catching up soon. Can you let us enter the city first?”

The guards at the gate scrutinized Ye Fan and Yu Linglong’s group, “Do you have tokens? An City is under martial law; everyone entering or exiting must have a token.”

Ye Fan replied with a bitter expression, “Token? We don’t have them; we’re being hunted. Please, brothers, take it easy on us? Here are some crystal coins for you to buy some drinks.”

While speaking, Ye Fan pulled out a bag of crystal coins from his person, pouring out a large amount before the guards. Most were ordinary crystal coins, but a few were Purple Crystal Coins, totaling tens of thousands in one go.

The crucial thing was the jingling sound from Ye Fan’s pouch, implying he had even more coins inside.

This scene made the eyes of nearby guards brighten, changing their perception of Ye Fan and Yu Linglong’s group from mere fugitives into three fat sheep, flush with wealth.

With each person’s aura fluctuating above the Golden Core Realm, in line with Mirror Moon Palace’s senior officials’ recent statement, capturing just one such expert now fetches a bounty of 1 million crystal coins, making three heads worth 3 million.

Realizing this, the guards at the gate exchanged glances, seeing greed in each other’s eyes and nodding silently.

The leading guard tossed the coins in his hand nonchalantly, pretending to be in a dilemma as he spoke, “This way? Technically, you shouldn’t be allowed into the city. However, seeing your plight, I might make an exception. Yet look, there are so many brothers at the gate here; even if I agree, it would be hard to justify to them!”

The implication was clear: he wanted Ye Fan to hand over more crystal coins.

With resources from the Evil Spirits’ treasury and the Soul Hall’s treasury, Ye Fan wasn’t short on crystal coins, promptly and respectfully offering up another large batch.

The dozens of guards responsible for the defense at the gate each received at least nearly ten thousand crystal coins, their faces lighting up with joy.

Just as Ye Fan, Yu Linglong, and Gong Shu thought everything was settled, a burly man stepped quickly from the gate, “What’s going on? Are you illegally letting people in to extort their crystal coins again? I’m telling you, if something goes wrong, nobody can bear that responsibility.”

The burly man held a seemingly high position; seeing him, the guards at the gate immediately bowed respectfully and addressed him, “Steward Zhang, we brothers were just trying to make some spare change for drinks. See, these three look harmless; wouldn’t it be considerate to send them to where they’re supposed to go?”

While speaking, the Guard Captain kept winking at Steward Zhang, meanwhile discreetly stuffing a handful of crystal coins into his hand. As Steward Zhang weighed the coins in his hand and noticed several Purple Crystal Coins among them, his expression softened noticeably.

Steward Zhang eyed Ye Fan’s group up and down, also sensing their power above the Golden Core Realm, quickly grasping the meaning of the Guard Captain’s words.

A head for 1 million, totaling 3 million, plus the other crystal coin riches on Ye Fan’s group, surely a profitable deal.

But he hesitated, as recent signals from within Mirror Moon Palace stressed that during the critical phase of the Soul Transfer Technique, no suspicious individuals should be allowed in at any cost.

So the burly Steward Zhang hesitated as he spoke, “But…”

Seeing that Zhang was still hesitating, Ye Fan’s lips curled into a devilish smile. Holding a battle saber, he approached Zhang swiftly. Without any hesitation, he plunged the saber toward Zhang’s chest…
