Heretic Doctor Useless Consort Chapter 38

Chapter 38

As soon as this sound appeared, it was like a spring breeze blowing through everyone’s hearts. It made everyone feel the hope of life and that hope had truly come! Because…

He was here.

Crown Prince Rong Mo was here!

Screech—!

At that moment, Ye Qianli—who was looking up at the source of the sound—saw that the beautiful crown prince, whom everyone kept thinking about and who bore an extraordinary hope of divinity, had already returned to the north as if he were a god! He arrived on the Vermilion Bird.

Roar—!

However, the Black Tortoise, which had been stepping out of the Vermilion Bird Gate originally, suddenly reappeared at this moment! It leaped out of the Vermilion Bird Gate and vaulted towards the Vermilion Bird in the sky.

The moment the heavy armor and the ferocious serpent body of the Black Tortoise rushed towards the Vermilion Bird, they erupted with an unparalleled violent aura, crushing the entire sky with ‘chi-chi’ sounds.

Bang!

The Black Tortoise’s sudden attack shattered the entire Vermilion Bird Gate and its forest of flowers into pieces! Rong Feng, the Eastern Sea King, and the others were all seriously injured as they flew off from the force of the explosion.

The divine beast, Black Tortoise, was so powerful! It had only moved forward quickly, but the shockwaves from its attack were enough to crush the entire area. This made Rong Feng and the others’ hearts—whose bodies had been severely injured—jump to their throats.

“Be careful!”

“Your Highness!”

At this moment, no one cared how serious their injuries were. Everyone’s attention was drawn to the sky!

Boom!

However, everyone was shocked to see that the Black Tortoise, which was as large as a black mountain and as sinister as an evil spirit, had already struck the Vermilion Bird—that was originally flying in the air—squarely in the middle.

Its flight was cut off…

“…”

Countless Vermilion Bird flames were scattered and lit up the entire sky. However, everyone’s hearts sank and darkened… So… Even if Crown Prince Rong Mo came, even he would not be able to defeat this beast?

So, the guardian of their Vermilion Bird Dynasty—the divine beast Vermilion Bird—was actually so weak as to be unable to withstand a single blow?

“How could this be…” Many ministers stared at the sky in disbelief. Even the Eastern Sea King was stunned. That was because it was simply too weak.

Even though the divine beast Black Tortoise was very powerful, was the guardian of their Vermilion Bird Dynasty—Vermilion Bird—so weak?

Moreover, their crown prince was a divine son recognized by the Vermilion Bird God. By right, the Vermilion Bird God summoned by the crown prince should be incomparably powerful!

In the end…

Before everyone could recover from their shock, those scattered Vermilion Bird flames in the sky suddenly condensed! They suddenly wrapped around the divine beast Black Tortoise at a speed that no one managed to see clearly.

Immediately after—!

“Destroy.”

The beautiful crown prince suddenly issued an indifferent voice of judgment, and then… Everyone watched blankly as that ball of fire that had enveloped the divine beast, Black Tortoise, exploded with a bang.

Afterward…

There was no afterward.

What divine beast Black Tortoise? How could it disappear just like that!?

“This…”

When the spectators on the ground saw this, they subconsciously blinked. Feeling that it still wasn’t enough, they even rubbed their eyes. Then, they looked again with all their might!

“It’s really gone? That Black Tortoise is really gone? Was… Was it burned to death? My god, that’s impossible. How could it be too weak to withstand a single blow?” The Eastern Sea King spat out a mouthful of blood exaggeratedly as he spoke in disbelief.

As shocked as everyone was that the Vermilion Bird could not withstand a single blow just now; now, they were just as shocked that Black Tortoise had collapsed at the first blow. They felt that this scene was not real.

Many were also subconsciously worried that the Black Tortoise most probably had not disappeared so it might launch a counterattack. They instinctively kept their guard up and stared at the sky.

However, no matter how they looked, they still didn’t see anything. They only saw Crown Prince Rong Mo jump down from the sky and appear in front of Rong Feng, looking completely fine as well.

“That was a fake divine beast Black Tortoise?” Rong Feng was one of the quickest to react. When he saw that Rong Mo was indeed fine, he immediately thought of the crux of the issue.

“It’s not considered a fake,” Rong Mo replied and then explained, “The Black Tortoise Dynasty must have obtained some kind of secret technique that can borrow the power of the Black Tortoise Divine Beast from its shrine. In addition, there are spies in the Vermilion Bird Dynasty.”

“What? Who?!” Rong Feng’s expression immediately changed.

Rong Mo did not reply immediately. Instead, his gaze swept across the group of court officials to land on Ye Qianli’s body for a while, causing the latter to feel baffled.

What kind of situation was this?

Ye Qianli’s head was filled with questions, but everyone looked at Ye Qianli because of Rong Mo’s gaze. All of them thought at the same time, could it be that the so-called spy was this lady from the Ye family?

“The spy betrayed the Northern Territory King’s whereabouts. The Northern Territory King was besieged, and his life and death are unknown. It’s true that the entire northern region has lost the battle. The Black Tortoise Dynasty’s million-strong army is marching down south while the 50,000-strong Black Armor Army is attacking the city,” Rong Mo said instead.

“The spy came from within the northern frontier? How many troops did the Black Tortoise Dynasty send?” Rong Feng’s expression was very ugly when he heard this, but his eyes remained firm.

“The spy was yet to be found. The Black Tortoise Army that has entered my Vermilion Bird Territory only has 50,000 Black Armor soldiers. My private forces from the Eastern Palace will be able to capture them within two hours,” Rong Mo replied succinctly.

“All right, thank you for your hard work.” Rong Feng directly heaved a long sigh of relief when he heard this. He was truly relieved. He had been prepared to die, but who knew that things would turn around so quickly?

“Mhm, you can make your own arrangements in the Sacred Palace. I will take Ye Qianli and You Ming away.” Rong Mo did not hold back at all and even wanted to take Ye Qianli and her captive to leave.

“Go on, do what you need to do. I will arrange the funeral arrangements in the palace and the city.” Rong Feng did not feel offended at all. He waved his hand and let Rong Mo leave quickly.

The latter raised his eyes and looked at Ye Qianli. The meaning in his eyes was very clear—’follow me’!

“…” What could Ye Qianli say? Of course, she would go with him. Not for anything else but for her grandfather’s matter. She had to follow him to get a thorough understanding.

Hence, when Rong Mo turned around this time, Ye Qianli followed him eagerly. “Your Highness, you went out of the city just now? You found out news about the northern region so quickly? Then, did my grandfather get captured or not?”

“I don’t know,” Rong Mo replied as he walked.

“You don’t know?” Ye Qianli was a little dumbfounded.

“Mhm.” Rong Mo’s pace became faster and faster. After exiting the Sacred Palace, he directly leaped into the air, causing Ye Qianli to nearly become unable to catch up to him! However, even though she managed to catch up, she was still panting heavily.

“Your Highness, the Crown Prince, where are we going? Why don’t you take this captive with you? I can’t run anymore.” Ye Qianli indicated that she still had someone with her! The energy depletion was huge.

“We’re here.” However, Rong Mo—who had already stopped—said. Under Ye Qianli’s blank gaze, he jumped down and appeared in the center of a mess of debris.

Ye Qianli followed him down and looked around her surroundings once. Only then did she realize that they were outside the city, and it should be outside the northern city gate. This was because there were collapsed city walls nearby, and soldiers were everywhere—both the wounded and the dead…

“Father—”

Ye Qianli was surveying when she suddenly heard an extremely sorrowful wail! It came from somewhere not far ahead of her, and she recognized this voice. It was Ye Fengtian’s voice.

However, Ye Fengtian’s father was her grandfather…
