Chapter 1355: Chapter 182: Encountering Ye Huli Again

Just as Yun Sheng was about to slip into the crowd, another burst of shouting rose by her ear.

"Who’s that man beside the Young Clan Chief? How come we’ve never seen him before?" Some random male passerby, clearly one of Hei Linlin’s admirers, spoke with obvious jealousy.

Hei Linlin was the famous ice beauty of the Hei Qilin Tribe. Since childhood she’d driven off countless suitors; aside from the Hei Yao Clan Leader and a few elders, no extra men had ever appeared at her side.

"Exactly, and that young lord is really handsome. I think he’s even better-looking than the Vice Clan Leader. I heard he’s from the Beast God Altar, otherwise why would the Young Clan Chief personally receive him?" Another random female passerby gushed, full-on fangirl mode.

"Who says so? The Vice Clan Leader is clearly the better-looking one." Yet another random female passerby was obviously a hardcore fan of Dugu Xiu.

Beast God Altar—Yun Sheng’s brow twitched as she suddenly remembered something.

When Ye Beiming left the Netherworld, wasn’t it together with the Beast God Altar’s Second Priest, Shen Jizi?

Curious despite herself, Yun Sheng lifted her eyes and looked over.

By now Hei Linlin and the Beast God Altar’s entourage had already passed; peering over the sea of heads, Yun Sheng could only see a few backs.

But just that one back was enough to make Yun Sheng’s breath stop in an instant.

"Ye Huli." She stared blankly at the man walking shoulder to shoulder with Hei Linlin.

She absolutely couldn’t be mistaken—that was Ye Beiming.

Why had he become someone of the Beast God Altar, and why was he walking together with Hei Linlin?

A thousand questions surged in her heart. Yun Sheng had the urge to immediately break out of the crowd, call out to Ye Beiming and question him, but reason quickly suppressed her impulse.

"Ye Beiming, what on earth are you thinking? Are you really going to go against the Hei Qilin Tribe and Father?" Hei Linlin walked side by side with Ye Beiming, interrogating him.

Ye Beiming didn’t say a word. Suddenly, as if sensing something, he abruptly turned around. On the street, all he saw were excited faces, none of them familiar.

"Hei Linlin, I’ve no need to explain so much to you. I’ve never acknowledged that I was a member of the Hei Qilin Tribe." Ye Beiming said nothing more.

Hei Linlin wanted to say something else, but the convoy had already arrived before the Kirin Palace. Dugu Xiu and a group of elders, who had received word, were waiting at the entrance.

Dugu Xiu spotted Ye Beiming in the crowd at a glance, and the moment he saw him, Dugu Xiu’s expression abruptly changed.

He—how could he be here?

And he’d even come to the Hei Qilin Tribe in the capacity of someone from the Beast God Altar.

Ye Beiming was arguably the man Dugu Xiu hated most in his life, and also his greatest lifelong rival.

Dugu Xiu had dreamed of facing him head-on, personally snatching back everything that should have belonged to him in the first place.

Almost at the same instant, Dugu Xiu thought of someone.

Yun Sheng... Ye Beiming has come—does Yun Sheng know?

If those two were to meet again... Dugu Xiu’s hands clenched tightly, his heart in utter turmoil.

"Young Clan Chief, you must avenge my daughter!" Just as Hei Linlin and Dugu Xiu were each lost in their own thoughts, one of the elders standing behind Dugu Xiu seized the moment while Dugu Xiu was distracted, suddenly rushing to the front of Hei Linlin, weeping bitterly.

"Elder Li, what are you doing?" Hei Linlin’s face darkened as she shot Dugu Xiu a glare.

The people from the Beast God Altar had only just arrived, and Elder Li ran up crying and making a scene—this was practically slapping the Hei Qilin Tribe’s face. What on earth was Dugu Xiu doing as Steward?

"Young Clan Chief, Li Qing is dead. I had a daughter late in life, only this one child, and she died a violent death at the hands of that witch from the Sky Fox Tribe. Young Clan Chief, you must stand up for me!" Elder Li was snot and tears all over his face.

He considered himself an elder-level figure of the Hei Qilin Tribe, and in Tianyong City, just one stomp of his foot could make the whole city shake three times. Who would have thought that this time he’d overturn his boat in a gutter, and have his daughter killed by some unknown junior from the Sky Fox Tribe.

Not only that, but Vice Clan Leader Dugu Xiu had even thrown his daughter’s corpse out in the wilderness; he hadn’t even had the chance to collect her body.

"What, you lost to the Sky Fox Tribe? Was it Hu Linglong who did it?" Hei Linlin’s expression was a sight to behold.

In her eyes, she had never once taken the weak Sky Fox Tribe seriously.

As far as she was concerned, the only one from the Sky Fox Tribe who could even get on the stage was Hu Linglong alone.

"No, we lost to some Heavenly Fox little slut named Yun Sheng." Elder Li spat out every word with hatred as he reported the name of his daughter’s killer.

Yun Sheng—

When they heard this unfamiliar name, everyone else found it a bit strange. Since when had there appeared a young expert named Yun Sheng on the continent?

"Shut up, we’ll discuss this matter later." Hei Linlin’s face, which had been filled with anger, paled the moment she heard those two characters.

Yun Sheng—it actually turned out to be Yun Sheng, that lingering, ever-present name.

She had almost forgotten that that Heavenly Fox little slut Yun Sheng was, in fact, a Heavenly Fox.

Hei Linlin didn’t know whether Ye Beiming had heard that name or not.

Then again, so what if he had? Yun Sheng, you actually dared to come to the Bahuang Continent, and even to participate in the Eight Desolate Clan Competition.

Thinking back to their last match, Hei Linlin’s teeth itched with anger.

However, after so many years, Hei Linlin was certain that if they met again, Yun Sheng would definitely not be her match.

"Honored Priests, I’m really sorry to have made you laugh. I’ve already ordered the Kirin Palace to be prepared properly. For the next few days, please rest well in the Kirin Palace. As for the core matches, I’ll personally make the arrangements." Hei Linlin forced a smile.

After the people from the Beast God Altar entered the Kirin Palace, Hei Linlin’s expression shifted.

"Dugu Xiu, what exactly is going on? Why is that little slut Yun Sheng in the Sky Fox Tribe? You knew long ago, didn’t you? You actually kept it from me this whole time?" The moment she thought about how Yun Sheng was actually on her turf while she herself had been kept in the dark, Hei Linlin seethed with hatred.

That damned Dugu Xiu—he had known long ago that Yun Sheng was in the Sky Fox Tribe, which was why he’d used public office for private gain and arranged for the Sky Fox Tribe people to stay in the Dugu Mansion.

If Elder Li hadn’t come to cry and complain today, she might not have found out about this until the core matches.

"Hei Linlin, that’s what I should be asking you. How did Ye Beiming end up together with the people from the Beast God Altar, and he’s even going to compete on their behalf? If Father finds out about this, I’m afraid..." Dugu Xiu sneered.

Hei Linlin also hesitated. If her father learned that Ye Beiming was determined to betray the Hei Qilin Tribe and fight in the Beast God Altar’s stead, he would definitely use every possible means to kill him.

"Dugu Xiu, I know you’ve always regarded Ye Beiming as a thorn in your eye, but don’t you dare make a move at this time. Hmph, before the core matches, you’re not allowed to lay a finger on him, and I won’t lay a finger on that little slut surnamed Yun either." After weighing things, Hei Linlin decided to temporarily make peace with Dugu Xiu. They needed to work together to stop Yun Sheng and Ye Beiming from meeting.
