Chapter 24 - Ye Qius Crisis! (2/2)

Now that his life was in the other party’s hands, Ghost Walk could only blabber, “That’s, that’s right. Y-your father is in our hands, don’t you dare do anything rash, otherwise you…”

Crack!

Before Gui Xing could finish his sentence, his neck was broken by Li Yu.

“Netherworld Demon Sect. Playing dirty, huh? Then don’t blame me for being merciless!” Li Yu said coldly.

Since the Netherworld Demon Sect had already threatened his father’s safety, that sect could not be spared anymore.

It was also a chance to relieve the pressure on the orthodox sects of the Great Xia Dynasty.

At this moment, the system mission interface suddenly popped up: [Kill Mo Lin and eliminate the Netherworld Demon Sect. You can obtain 20 Prestige points.]

Good timing!

A wisp of a smile curved up the corners of Li Yu’s mouth. He had just intended to eliminate the Netherworld Demon Sect for good, and the system issued the mission. Since he could earn some money from it, he had no reason to let the Netherworld Demon Sect off.

However, just as Li Yu was about to put away the mission panel, his gaze could not help but be attracted by Ye Qiu’s name.

At this moment, his name had turned red with the word ‘danger’ at the side.

Ye Qiu’s trip to the Mo Prefecture to fight the war is indeed dangerous! Judging from this notification, this kid is probably becoming cannon fodder!

Li Yu recalled that Ye Qiu had said that the Mo Prefecture had fallen because the Netherworld Demon Sect had joined forces with the Wolf King Clan.

The Wolf King clan slaughtered, robbed, and committed all kinds of crimes. Currently, the people there were in misery and suffering.

If the Wolf King’s clan continued south and the Mo Prefecture fell completely, the Great Xia Dynasty would be completely exposed to the wolf cavalry army of the Wolf King Clan.

It could directly cause the fall of the Great Xia Dynasty.

Initially, Li Yu did not plan to interfere in this matter. After all, it was handled by the officials. He was not a saint, nor did he want to be a hero. There was no need for him to be a busybody.

However, now that the Netherworld Demon Sect had implicated him, he decided to head to the Mo Prefecture to eliminate the Netherworld Demon Sect. While he was at it, he would also eradicate the Wolf King Clan, who was in cahoots with the Netherworld Demon Sect.

Anyway, he could settle it with one sword!

In the end, Li Yu still could not bear to part with a possible cash cow like Ye Qiu.

After Ye Qiu left today, he regretted not taking action earlier.

If this guy really died, he would not only lose a genius junior brother, he would also lose a large sum of sect fees. There was also the tempting Ancient Emperor Qing Cang’s hidden treasure mission.

If the war in the north was over, peace would return to the Great Xia Dynasty. While Ye Qiu would probably not need to fight in the war and he could enter their Qingyun Sect again.

After some thoughts and considerations, Li Yu called Tang Chi over and handed over the supervision of their sect’s construction project to him.

Nan’an City’s Ye Residence. It was just past three in the morning, and Ye Qiu was already prepared to set off.

After Ye Guxing received the decree, he had already headed straight for the Mo Prefecture from the Qing Prefecture border.

Meanwhile, Ye Qiu would bring a group of light cavalrymen that escorted his father back and set out from Nan’an City. They head north to the Mo Prefecture to meet up with Ye Guxing.

In order to ease his mother’s fear, Ye Qiu lied and said that Li Yu agreed to help him fight the enemy. And that they would surely emerge victorious this time and expel the Wolf King Clan from the country.

Perhaps the sign of a man’s maturity was when he learns to tell white lies.

Besides their own countries, there were some things that they had to protect and defend with their lives. After all, they have to protect the hearts of their parents, wife, and children too.

Although Ye Qiu’s flawless lie made Yang Shengnan skeptical, and she even thought that the ‘Li Yu’ that Ye Qiu spoke of was a cheat, she had no other choice. If she did not comply, her entire family would be executed.

Therefore, Yang Shengnan could only send Ye Qiu off with tears streaming down her face.

She held onto the slim hope that Li Yu was truly as capable as Ye Qiu had described him to be.
