Supreme Dragon Seal

Xiao Jiu appeared in front of Qi Bei like a ghost, while Huan Ying who was being teased by him shouted in a coy voice and ran away.

“What’s happening over there at Starfall?” Qi Bei asked innocently.

“Qingmu hasn’t come out, but I found a green bird flying out of his yard. The bird flew to a clinic in the slum areas of the Western City District and after a while, it flew back and then out of the city towards the direction of the sheltered valley.” Xiao Jiu said.

“The Star Master lives in a clinic in the slums?” Qi Bei was surprised. He couldn’t imagine why one of the leaders of the three major forces in West Spirit City would live in the slums.

“I don’t know, but I asked around. The doctor in that clinic is named Murong. People call her Doctor Murong. She has difficulty walking with her legs and she’s said to have a strange disease. She has been providing free medical treatment for the poor in that area for three years.” Xiao Jiu said.

Qi Bei nodded. Even if Doctor Murong was not the Star Master, she must have a great relationship with Starfall.

Just then, Thirteen appeared like a ghost and said, “Master, I just found out that Starfall’s mercenary group is assembling.”

Qi Bei stood up and smiled, “The big fish is hooked. Has the trap in the sheltered valley been set up?”

“It’s already set up.” Thirteen said.

“That’s good. Let’s cut off one of their arms first. Our chips should be heavy enough then.” Qi Bei rubbed his newly grown beard, and his sly appearance did not match his image at all. He seemed like a kid pretending to be mature.

Of course, Xiao Jiu and Thirteen did not think so. Since returning from the Undead Mountain Range, Qi Bei had become unfathomable.

………

Under the starry sky, the Star Mercenary Corps, the mercenary army which was under the jurisdiction of Starfall, with more than 8,000 people, rushed towards the sheltered valley in the blizzard. It could be said that Starfall’s mercenaries came out in full force.

Because they came out in full force, the departure of the Star Mercenary Corps was very secretive. They were afraid that if Blood Wolves and Shadow Clan found out, they would gather and attack the headquarters.

This operation was led by the three Star Generals- Qingmu, Bisha, and Gu Xing among the eight Star Generals of Starfall.

“Qingmu, don’t you think there’s something wrong with this?” Bisha said to Qingmu. He was a thin and short middle-aged man with a pair of eight-character mustaches. He looked sneaky and not like a Star General who held great power in a region. Instead, he looked like a thief on the street.

“Is there a problem?” Qingmu asked, and the cold-faced Gu Xing next to him also looked over.

“I can’t see any problem, but I just feel like it’s too coincidental. The three young ladies disappeared and then news about them appeared at the Adventurer’s Paradise. And it’s also related to Qi Bei Nord, who is destined to be the mortal enemy of all the forces in the West Spirit City.” Bisha played with his mustache and his eyes darted around quickly.

“The Adventurer’s Paradise is filled with people from all walks of life, so there’s nothing unusual about this news. The key is that our three young ladies from Starfall are following Qi Bei Nord.” Qingmu said.

“That convoy’s guards said it themselves, the three young ladies are following Qi Bei Nord obediently. Maybe they have some plans for being by his side? Won’t we ruin their plan if we go there?” Bisha said.

Qing Mu pondered for a moment and nodded, “What you said is very likely, but it’s only a possibility, and you understand the position of the three young ladies in the Star Master’s heart. The Star Master won’t allow even the slightest possibility of danger to happen to them.”

Bisha sighed and understood that Qing Mu was right. If something happened to the three young ladies…He shuddered and didn’t dare to think further.

When they were ten miles away from the sheltered valley, the Star Mercenary Corps stopped, seeming to be waiting for something.

Soon, a small green bird shot out of the snowstorm flying swiftly, and landed on Qingmu’s shoulder, chirping loudly.

“Xiao Cui said that the sheltered valley is indeed emitting the aura of the three young ladies,” Qingmu said with a dark face.

“Well, since the three young ladies are there, we have no choice but to attack. At worst, we’ll let Qi Bei Nord go. That kid can’t die, otherwise, the Golden Leaf Empire will definitely turn West Spirit City into a river of blood,” Bisha said.

The eight thousand members of the Star Mercenary Corps wore snow-white cloaks, blending in with the snow and wind. They wore soft snow boots on their feet, making almost no sound on the snow. Even if there were slight noises, they were all covered by the sound of the wind. Like this, they silently rushed towards the valley.

Inside the sheltered valley, over two hundred tents occupied all the open space. According to the calculation of four people per tent, it could indeed accommodate a thousand people.

On two small hills surrounding the valley, rows of heads poked out quietly.

“Don’t… don’t…”

“Get lost, you bastard, don’t touch Sister Yan Ling…”

“The Star Master will kill you, ah…”

Qingmu originally felt that it was too quiet here, and there were no soldiers patrolling, hesitating whether to confirm it again.

But just then, Yan Ling’s and Ru Feng’s anxious voices came from the central main tent.

The expressions of the three Star Generals all changed. No way!

“Attack!” Qingmu immediately gave the command to attack.

Countless arrows and dazzling magic rained down on the tents in the sheltered valley. Then, a group of Star Mercenary Corps at the mouth of the valley rushed in, shouting loudly.

But just then, thick black smoke suddenly billowed from the tents, engulfing the entire valley including the mountains.

“Bad news, it’s a trap, retreat quickly!” Bisha shouted sharply.

But it was too late!

“Boom!”

A huge explosion shook the two mountains, causing the members of Star Mercenary Corps to collapse on the ground. When the black smoke met with fire, it instantly turned into dark green, and the mercenaries fell one by one like wheat being cut.

Only a few dozen people held their breath and hurriedly escaped, including the three Star Generals.

But when they rushed out of the dark green mist, they were greeted by hundreds of magic crossbows aimed at them.

Leading the charge was Lie Feng, who stepped forward and shouted coldly, “Surrender now, my Lord is merciful and doesn’t want your lives. But if you resist, you’ll be the ghosts under the blades of our Black Armored Army.”

“What about our brothers…” Gu Xing was furious. If all those mercenaries died, he couldn’t live either.

“Don’t worry, they’re just unconscious. They’ll wake up once they take the antidote.” Lie Feng said.

Gu Xing threw his spear and sat down on the snow.

Qingmu and Bisha also put down their weapons with bitter smiles. The situation was already lost, and they didn’t need to die for no reason.

The rest of the mercenaries also yielded when they saw that the three Star Generals had surrendered.

“The Lord is really insightful. If we ever go to war, we’ll definitely make those Orc armies cry for their daddies and mommies.” After tying up these people, Lie Feng’s devotion toward Qi Bei had reached the extreme.
