Chapter 1780: Chapter 1780 Too Many Questions
After arriving at Mystique Mart, Ye Liuyun was ushered directly into a private room by Mr. Liao.
"Could you kindly fetch Miss Xuan Yuanling for me?" Ye Liuyun politely requested.
"Certainly, may I ask for your patience, please," replied Mr. Liao, aware that Ye Liuyun is an important client. Without any delay, he went to get Xuan Yuanling.
"Alright, if he’s a significant client, I should meet him," Xuan Yuanling agreed immediately.
She had heard rumors in the morning, so she had already deduced that the deaths of the two bodyguards were somehow linked to Ye Liuyun.
When Xuan Yuanling met Ye Liuyun, she asked Mr. Liao to leave them.
"Why are you here in your military uniform?"
Ye Liuyun had not even bothered to change his clothes, coming straight to meet her.
Ignoring the small talk, Ye Liuyun stated directly, "I’m here to retrieve four Alora Crystals."
"How did you manage to do it?" Xuanyuan Ling asked curiously.
"Do what?" Ye Liuyun feigned ignorance.
"I heard about your visit to the Nuanxiang Pavilion last night where you enjoyed music performances with Xuan Yuanyu. One of the eight Vajras died on the spot, and another one passed away mysteriously. I am simply curious about how you managed this?" Xuanyuan Ling queried further.
"You are asking too many questions! If Miss Xuanyuan is not willing to honor her promise, then I’ll take my leave!" Ye Liuyun retorted, standing up to leave.
"Wait! My curiosity doesn’t mean I won’t uphold my promise," Xuan Yuanling stopped Ye Liuyun.
With a smirk, Ye Liuyun replied, "The promise only demands the result, and not the process! Isn’t it so?"
Xuan Yuanling was momentarily startled before quickly asking, "What type of Alora Crystals do you want?"
"Two with the power of the heavens and earth, two with the power of space." Ye Liuyun said unceremoniously.
"Just a moment!" Xuan Yuanling didn’t waste time with unnecessary talk, and went immediately to fetch them.
After obtaining the four large crystal stones, Ye Liuyun did not say anything more. He just straight away left the private room and hastened to the tavern.
Inside the tavern, most people were discussing the death of the two great Vajras!
Regarding the sixth Vajra, everyone believed that it was killed by He lianqiang’s guard, no question about it. Only with the eighth Vajra, did people offer diverse conjectures.
Some even speculated that it was the work of a monster, because their virtuoso had been extracted.
Others believed that they ran into some blind bandits who had robbed them thoroughly clean.
As for Ye Liuyun, he listened to their conversations while considering how to eliminate the remaining six Vajras.
The others, with the lowest being at the early third level, were all stronger than him. If he openly attacked, the disturbance would be too great.
Therefore, the best solution would be a Divine Soul attack. He had already mentally prepared the sequence of the killings.
After dinner, Ye Liuyun rushed over to Nuanxiang Pavilion.
The attendant following him was quite helpless.
As Ye Liuyun entered the Nuanxiang Pavilion, the attendant could only wait outside. He was not as extravagant as Ye Liuyun to comfortably spend money in such a place.
As for Ye Liuyun, he found a deserted corner, put on his Concealcape, and slipped out right under the attendant’s nose.
This time, he was heading to a clinic in the outer city.
Such clinics were usually open to ordinary citizens. Martial practitioners didn’t require these standard clinics.
First, he stood outside the clinic, using his Divine Sense to investigate, then waited outside the clinic.
Before long, the seventh Vajra hurried over. He was a local from this royal city who financed a clinic for his parents and came regularly every month to collect payments.
However, before he could enter the clinic, he was attacked by Ye Liuyun’s Divine Soul attack. The same technique, the same operation, his virtuoso and Interspatial Ring were all taken by Ye Liuyun.
Afterwards, Ye Liuyun went directly back to the Nuanxiang Pavilion.
However, he didn’t take off his Concealcape but headed straight for a dancer’s room.
The dancer was the third Vajra’s sweetheart.
With a single sweep of his Divine Sense, Ye Liuyun found the third Vajra was conveniently cultivating within.
Without any hesitation, he had his clone transform into the figure of the dancer and pushed the door open. Joined by his clone, they attacked his Ocean of Consciousness with four Divine Souls and killed him instantly.
Afterwards, collecting his virtuoso and Interspatial Ring, he withdrew, wearing his Concealcape. Upon reaching the courtyard and finding a secluded spot, he revealed himself and strolled into the main hall, where he started drinking floral wine with a few of the serving ladies.
At this moment, an attendant girl from Hua Xiangyuan hurriedly came to find Ye Liuyun, "My mistress invites Mr. Ye to her performance."
The other ladies, knowing they couldn’t afford to provoke Hua Xiangyuan, stayed silent.
Yet, Ye Liuyun directly declined, "I don’t feel like listening to her guqin tonight, I won’t go!"
The ladies were taken aback. Hua Xiangyuan had personally come to invite this young man, and yet, he had declined.
The maid from Hua Xiangyuan didn’t expect that Ye Liuyun would flat out refuse her. However, she couldn’t say much in front of everyone, so she merely went back to relay the message.
After a while, the maid rushed over again, giving a Sound Transmission Talisman to Ye Liuyun and told him, "My master asked me to give this to you."
At the same time, she also whispered to Ye Liuyun, "My master asked me to tell you, Young Master Xuan Yuanyu is no longer in Nuanxiang Pavilion, and the Vajra by the door is only there for show."
"I understand." Ye Liuyun responded, casually tucking away the Sound Transmission Talisman and dismissing the maid.
After delivering the message, the maid promptly left.
The women surrounding Ye Liuyun exclaimed, "The young master is so handsome, he even ignores Hua Xiangyuan!"
His clone, on the other hand, was in the Spatial world, checking the information within the Sound Transmission Talisman.
It turns out, Xuan Yuanyu, upon learning of the eighth Vajra’s death last night, felt the danger and ran home. The fourth Vajra standing watch at the door now is also just for show.
Ye Liuyun immediately transferred one of his Divine Souls into the Spatial World, entering the clone’s Ocean of Consciousness, and then let the clone, cloaked in Concealcape, go and kill the fourth Vajra.
After the clone went, it directly launched a Divine Soul attack, destroying the Vajra’s soul, then tore off his Interspatial Ring and took out his virtuoso.
However, the movement of taking the virtuoso still aroused the attention of the martial practitioner guards here.
Ye Liuyun’s clone immediately ran away. When he was not far from Ye Liuyun, he was retrieved into the Spatial World by Ye Liuyun’s Hyper Hop.
"That was a close one!" The clone also sighed, releasing Ye Liuyun’s Divine Soul back.
The martial practitioner who was pursuing the clone reached the door and looked around. After not finding anyone, he withdrew.
Inside the Nuanxiang Pavilion, many people were already surrounding the body of the fourth Vajra, pointing and discussing. The guard of the Nuanxiang Pavilion had no choice but to temporarily stash the body away, waiting for the people of Mystique Mart to claim it.
Hua Xiangyuan didn’t expect that no sooner had she finished notifying Ye Liuyun, than he took action.
Moreover, she remains tremendously curious about just how Ye Liuyun managed to move.
Ye Liuyun seemed to be busy drinking with the ladies, without any hint of suspicion.
However, she didn’t believe that it had nothing to do with Ye Liuyun. After all, as soon as she had finished speaking to Ye Liuyun, the fourth Vajra was dead.
Having no other choice, she had to ask by the Sound Transmission Talisman she gave, but Ye Liuyun ignored her, continuing to drink with the ladies instead.
Ye Liuyun hadn’t left until after midnight, returning to the royal residence.
