There was no way that Yuchi Peng had any relationship with the security guards in Death God Castle.
He was able to tempt the guards in the Mercenary Association to obstruct Ye Qing Luo.
But there was absolutely no way to use the same method to let Death God Castle’s security guards open the back door for him.
Then…..
There was one last possibility.
The Exquisite Pagoda…. Was not in Death God Castle.
Or perhaps, it was in Yuchi Peng’s hands.
If it was true, then that would be easy to deal with.
Looked like, if they wanted to complete this mission, they would be able to start from Yuchi Peng.
After Yuchi Peng’s group headed back to Three Springs Town, they then separated.
Duke Jing had suffered such a major humiliation today, so at this point of time, he could not wait to complain to his Uncle Monarch immediately.
As for the other mercenary soldiers, their morale had taken a huge beating so all of them appeared tired and were sent back to their Iron Blood Warriors campsite to rest for the day.
Yuchi Peng headed straight back to Yuchi family’s residence.
His expression was sunken, as his entire body unleashed shockingly vicious currents.
Those servants and maids who came across him, avoided him from afar, not even daring to greet him at all.
Yuchi Peng’s courtyard was located in the southern part of Yuchi family’s residence, and was the largest courtyard in the entire residence.
Ye Qing Luo stopped outside the courtyard.
Her vision was fixed on the courtyard as her slender brows creased tightly into a knot.
Here it was again…
That kind…. The disgusting feeling which she felt when she first met Yuchi Peng.
There seemed to be something in this courtyard.
Something which made one felt extremely uncomfortable.
“Lass.” Old Man Cang’s voice was emitted abruptly in her mind, “I’ve been sensing that this Yuchi Peng is very odd, and now upon seeing this courtyard… I discovered that this courtyard is even weirder.”
Ye Qing Luo raised her hand and placed it on her chest to suppress that uncomfortable feeling.
It indeed was very weird.
So weird that all the pores on her entire body all opened wide.
“Lass, don’t go in…” Old Man Cang’s voice was solemn and grave, “This feeling is too strange, even I’m unable to predict accurately what is the source which gives of this feeling…. strange, simply too strange!”
“It’s too late.”
Indeed it was too late.
While Ye Qing Luo was engaged with Old Man Cang’s conversation, her vision had been fixed on Yuchi Peng.
Right after Yuchi Peng entered his courtyard, the vicious currents coming from his entire body became even more intense.
Following that, his entire being seemed as though he had lost all strength as he stumbled onto the ground with both his palms holding him up, as his head hung low, buried in his hair.
Following that there were no more movements.
Then simultaneously while Old Man Cang was telling her not to enter.
Yuchi Peng who had been sprawling on the ground and not moving for quite some time, suddenly turned his head around.
With his hair pouring down in torrents on his face, a penetrative pair of eyes like an icy cold poisonous snake rightly twirled itself around Ye Qing Luo.
Yuchi Peng still didn’t move.
But Ye Qing Luo knew.
He had seen her.
That pair of eyes was strange and cold.
Ye Qing Luo’s heart was filled with terrified emotions.
That pair of eyes….
That expression absolutely didn’t belong to Yuchi Peng.
That wasn’t an expression which Yuchi Peng was capable of having.
This recognition made Ye Qing Luo turn icy cold from head to toe.
For the first time in her life, Ye Qing Luo developed a helpless mentality.
That gaze was too frightening!
“Oh no lass!” Old Man Cang’s voice suddenly turned sombre as his tone was filled with fluster, “He… he’s not Yuchi Peng, I finally know why this courtyard is so strange!”
Ye Qing Luo gave a bitter laugh.
She guessed it already, that this person was not Yuchi Peng.
To put it in a more accurate form, after entering this courtyard, this body,no longer contained Yuchi Peng’s soul.
But even though she found out about this shocking truth.
Ye Qing Luo still had no way to leave.
She believed.
That if she were to move, “Yuchi Peng” would absolutely rush forward immediately…
