Peerless Divine Doctor
Chapter 2401 - 2402: Setting a Trap
After all, the Emissary is the spokesperson for the Law Enforcers, always arrogant and domineering. Ye Luo’s actions naturally provoked the Emissary.
Ye Luo’s eyes shimmered with cold light, "I’m afraid he already knows too many of my secrets. I didn’t expect those Guards to be entangled with the Emissary. In this case, this Emissary cannot be left alive!"
Yujizi pondered for a moment, and said, "That’s true, but if an Emissary falls, it’s no small matter, and it will surely alarm the Law Enforcers!"
Ye Luo had thought of that as well, but he believed that even if he let the Emissary go back, he would still report to the Law Enforcers! At that time, the Law Enforcers would still intervene!
Of course, Ye Luo definitely wouldn’t kill him openly, for doing so would be asking for trouble!
"Don’t worry, senior, you need not get involved in this matter, I have my own ways!"
Upon hearing this, Yujizi nodded decisively. In fact, even though he had recently recovered some of his strength, he was still no match for an Emissary, meaning he couldn’t be of much help. What he could do now was only to give Ye Luo some advice.
Later, Ye Luo returned to the tent to start planning.
Recently, during his cultivation, Ye Luo wasn’t idle either! It could be said that since arriving in the Holy City, he had been doing one thing all along! That was collecting Death Qi!
This Death Qi is an extremely formidable Dark Law, even a trace of it can cause an ancestor-level master to fall into Lunhui!
Strictly speaking, this Law doesn’t even belong to this world. Ye Luo even suspected this Law might originate from beyond the Martial Realm!
For other cultivators, this act of collecting Death Qi would undoubtedly be playing with fire. To say nothing of anything else, even a trace of Death Qi could be unbearable for many cultivators, let alone collecting it.
Only the pure Thunder Principle can restrain this Death Qi! There may be many cultivators capable of nurturing Thunder Law Seeds in the Martial Realm, but in the Holy City, they are exceedingly rare. Moreover, if they could resist Death Qi, they would have long since improved their realm and escaped, not being trapped here.
Ye Luo looked at the bottle in his hand. The bottle was enveloped by the Thunder Principle, constantly emitting a sizzling sound, and inside the bottle were threads of inky black Law power!
The ferocity of this Law power was no less than that of the Thunder Principle.
Ye Luo had to continuously input Thunder Principle into the bottle, as the Laws inside were consuming the Thunder Principle!
This strange phenomenon was something Ye Luo encountered for the first time!
Originally, the Thunder Principle was supposed to be the nemesis of the Dark Law, but now it seemed the Thunder and Dark Laws were evenly matched!
However, Ye Luo didn’t mind, because the Dark Law inside the bottle was collected by him, and the external Dark Law wasn’t nearly as dense.
His mouth suddenly curled into a cold smile, and then he tucked the bottle into his chest before walking out.
As soon as he stepped outside, he saw the Third Princess meditating not far away, having reached a realm of self-forgetfulness. However, her body was soaked in blood, making Ye Luo somewhat unable to bear looking directly at her.
Quickly, he arrived outside the captain’s tent.
At this moment, the Emissary indeed stood outside the tent, frowning deeply, his expression exceedingly ugly!
Seeing Ye Luo approach, he immediately waved his sleeve with a cold snort.
Ye Luo ignored him, went straight to the tent, bowed slightly toward the tent, and then shouted, "Captain, the matter you entrusted to me has been completed!"
After speaking, he took out the previous bottle.
Of course, the bottle was still transparent now, but it was no longer filled with that dark energy, but the Spiritual Liquid from the Five Dao Ridges!
This item was extremely precious throughout the Martial Realm, not to mention in this resource-poor Holy City.
Immediately, the Emissary’s expression changed, and his gaze on the bottle was blatantly filled with greed.
Just a bottle of this liquid could increase one’s lifespan immensely, not to mention its significant benefits for one’s realm!
Although the Emissary was the spokesperson for the Law Enforcers, he merely had more resources than others; otherwise, he wasn’t much different from other cultivators in the Holy City, just having a slightly higher status than those Patrol Envoys.
"Stop!" the Emissary immediately yelled furiously.
Seeing the Emissary’s furious eyes, Ye Luo found it quite amusing!
This guy was indeed tempted!
"What’s the matter, my lord?" Ye Luo pretended to ask in confusion.
"Hand over what you’re holding!" the Emissary roared!
"My lord, isn’t this inappropriate? The captain asked me to do this!" Ye Luo hastily appeared anxious.
"My lord, this item is crucial for my cultivation, and I expended immense effort to acquire it!"
At this moment, the captain finally emerged from the tent.
However, the Emissary didn’t care about the captain’s abnormality at all; his entire focus was on the bottle in Ye Luo’s hand!
"Enough talking, if you don’t hand it over, both of you will die!" the Emissary said venomously.
Ye Luo and the captain immediately became troubled.
"Rest assured, as long as you give me this item, I won’t pursue any past events, and I won’t interfere with whatever you wish to do in the future!" The Emissary quickly added when he saw their expressions.
"Captain, what do you think?" Ye Luo hesitated for a moment, then asked.
"No, this item is crucial to my cultivation, I cannot agree!" the captain resolutely replied.
"How dare you!" the Emissary’s eyes widened, and he directly attacked the two of them.
"Captain, catch this!"
Seeing the opportunity arise, Ye Luo hurriedly tossed the bottle.
However, this clearly had a flaw, as the Emissary had already attacked, and Ye Luo was tossing the bottle, wasn’t that just foolish?
But the Emissary didn’t care about such things. As soon as he saw the bottle flying, his eyes glazed over, and he ignored his attack, reaching directly for the bottle.
And the captain naturally headed for the bottle as well!
Bam!
In a hurry, the Emissary struck the captain’s shoulder with a palm, causing the captain to vomit blood and fall from the sky!
And the bottle fell into the Emissary’s hands.
"Haha, competing with me? You truly don’t know life from death!"
After speaking, he turned around, and his figure disappeared!
Only then came a dull thud, which was the captain’s body hitting the ground.
Strictly speaking, the Emissary’s cultivation wasn’t much stronger than the captain’s. Although he was a puppet captain, his cultivation wasn’t much different from when he was a captain.
