Miracle Doctor, Abandoned Daughter: The Sly Emperor’s Wild Beast-Tamer Empress

What was the hearing of Heaven Sect?

Both Ye Lingyue and Lan Cai’er felt a little surprised.

Heaven Sect was the one that composed the Dan List of the Qing Continent and the Reincarnation Dan List. There were quite a lot of legends about the sect on the continent, but few had really seen it.

Even fewer knew about the relationship between Heaven Sect and the Alliance of Mercenaries. That was why the sect was able to present the most authoritative Dan list and Reincarnation list.

There were a great many mercenary soldiers in the alliance and they were the best informers for Heaven Sect.

“You cannot underestimate the hearing of Heaven Sect. Its two seniors, Heaven Master and Earth Master, are powerful prophets. It is said that they know everything on the continent and can predict everything from the life of a person to the destiny of a state. Sure enough, the prerequisite is that you can pay a heavy price.” Junior Li showed full respect for the two elders of Heaven Sect.

Not everyone could attend the hearing of Heaven Sect. Every year, only mercenary soldiers with the highest personal credits and group credits were eligible to make inquiries. Junior Li felt that Black Moon and Lan Lan might not earn the highest personal credits but their group Disha was quite promising.

In the City of Mercenaries, the credits were calculated at the end of each spring. It was already autumn when Ye Lingyue and Lan Cai’er arrived here. This meant that they had only half a year left to earn more credits.

Hearing these words, Ye Lingyue rolled her eyeballs.

“Junior Li, now that there is a credit list in the City of Mercenaries, who earns the highest personal and group credits?”

“The one that earns the highest group credits for the moment is a well-established mercenary group called Xuange. The second is Drinking Blood and the third is your group, Disha. The one who earns the highest personal credits is Bo Qing from Drinking Blood.” Junior Li turned the pages of the credit brochure.

“What? Bo Qing looks like a sissy. How come he is so powerful?”

Lan Cai’er was in full disbelief. She had believed that the highest credit earner must be someone as fierce and scary as their Captain, Disha. Bo Qing was in no way like the top earner.

“Haha, Lan Lan, you don’t know that Bo Qing is nicknamed Treasure Collector. Whenever he carries out a task, he will find some precious herbs or ores along the way. He is also 7 or 8 times more likely than ordinary men to pick up spiritual cores when fighting with spiritual beasts. In this case, he can easily earn a lot of credits.” Junior Li’s face showed full envy.

The young head Bo Qing was always the headline maker in the City of Mercenaries.

He was extremely lucky and attractive. In addition, he detested women, so the mercenary soldiers even believed him to be gay.

After the fiancée of Dao Ge came, the one who always stayed together with Bo Qing changed to the green-handed soldier called Hong Yulang.

Of course, Junior Li would not talk about such gossip with Ye Lingyue and Lan Cai’er.

Ye Lingyue and Lan Cai’er raised their eyebrows. The comparison could always arouse much jealousy.

Ye Lingyue and Lan Cai’er discussed for a while and decided to start with low-level tasks. Their first task was to collect Red Frost Grass which was a Level-5 spiritual grass growing in the marshes 10 li (a unit of length equaling 500 meters） away from the City of Mercenaries.

A single day would be more than efficient to finish this task.

Aside from this one, Ye Lingyue also undertook a dozen of tasks about seeking herbs or hunting mid-level spiritual beasts.

After they left the city, Lan Cai’er was a bit gloomy.

“Lingyue, why do you only undertake low-level tasks? You can merely earn 50 credits for each at most. Have you given up the strive to earn the highest personal credits?”

“Of course not. There are only a few chances to get in direct touch with Heaven Sect and I exactly have something to ask the sect.” Ye Lingyue smiled.

The inquiry of Ye Lingyue was about Feng Shen’s illness.

Last time, Feng Shen saved her life in the Star Cave. Ye Lingyue did not like to owe others anything.

“We are not familiar with the surroundings and hence need to figure out the topography. Gou Wa has told us about where he found Qiankun Zijin Bamboo. If we go out looking for it rashly, we will call the attention of others. We may as well grasp the opportunity to identify the whereabouts of the bamboo while carrying out the tasks.” Ye Lingyue was clear that her and Lan Cai’er’s power might mean a lot in Da Xia but much less in the City of Mercenaries where talents could be seen everywhere.

Di and Sha could be either friends or enemy. The safest option was to make stable progress.

Lan Cai’er understood all this and then the two girls started their first task.

In the following more than a half month, Ye Lingyue and Lan Cai’er were as busy as bees, spending all their time searching the mountains and forests. They set out in the early morning and came back quite late, getting mud and dirt all over their bodies.

The tasks of the City of Mercenaries were not easy to accomplish. Every time Ye Lingyue and Lan Cai’er came back, they were tired out, falling asleep upon lying on the pillow.

The rest of their time was spent on sleeping and eating only. So it was even quite hard for Wu Chong and Yan Jiu to see them.

“Oh, my! Wu Chong, you are so cold-hearted. They just need some credits and we can support the life of the two women just by undertaking some tasks randomly.” Yan Jiu could not help complaining.

“The future female head of the Underground Palace cannot be that weak.” With these words, Wu Chong stood up and walked out.

“Women should be protected by men. No wonder you’re still single!” Yan Jiu curled his lips.

Inside the room in the northernmost part of Qingyun Inn, Ye Lingyue had already fallen asleep after a busy day.

A ghost-like figure entered the room.

Looking at the little girl in sound sleep, Wu Chong showed more tenderness on his scary face.

“Squeak~”

Little Squeak that was sleeping tight on Ye Lingyue’s body sensed something and was about to open its eyes.

Before Little Squeak was able to see clearly, two winds from fingers fell on the sleeping acupunctures of it and Ye Lingyue.

Wu Chong scoffed and pushed away Little Squeak occupying the bed. He had warned the male beast many times not to get too close to his girl.

Wu Chong skillfully climbed onto the bed and held Ye Lingyue in his arms who was curling up in the inner part.

Qingyun Inn was decorated luxuriously and its beds were quite spacious. Wu Chong gazed at the little girl in his arms. On her pitch-black face, long and dense eyebrows looked like the wings of butterflies.

“Girl, do you prefer the good-for-nothing Feng Shen to me?” Wu Chong whispered in Ye Lingyue’s ears.
