Volume 3, Chapter 74 – The Invading Divine-Graced Maiden… The Situation Seems a Bit…

“Who are you!”

Staring at the figure in the shadows, the two guards couldn’t help but show grave expressions.

While drawing their swords, they also unreservedly released their spiritual power aura representing mid-level Divine Martial Realm. Spiritual power adhered to their sharp blades as they assumed defensive stances.

They were well aware,

this was the Lingyuan family’s safe house. By all rights, it should be the place with the highest safety index… yet the other party could appear here so casually without triggering any warnings?

This showed the intruder’s formidable strength.

Moreover,

she just said she was a Divine-Graced Maiden?

In the current Westivian Covenant, there was only one person who would call herself a Divine-Graced Maiden.

“Could it be, you, you are?”

One of the guards said with a grave expression.

The next moment,

his guess was confirmed.

At this moment, a girl wearing golden mage robes, with beautiful long black hair and an attractive face, walked step by step out of the shadows.

This face—during the period a few years ago when the new Divine-Graced Maiden descended, both guards had seen it frequently in the news.

Combined with the Augury Force constantly emanating from the girl’s body.

The other party’s identity was already self-evident.

She was precisely the current Divine-Graced Maiden of the Westivian Covenant, the girl named “Zao Li.”

Upon seeing the Divine-Graced Maiden, most people’s first reaction would be to bow in respect. However, the two guards treated her as a great enemy, activating the alarm while unhesitatingly pointing their swords at Zao Li.

“Miss Zao Li! Why are you here!”

“Please leave immediately, or don’t blame us for getting rough!”

The guards’ warning-laden roar reverberated throughout the room.

Being shouted at like this,

a trace of fear couldn’t help but appear on Zao Li’s pretty face, and she instinctively stepped back.

“You, you…”

At this moment, she didn’t seem like some high-ranking Divine-Graced Maiden, but rather like a frightened little girl.

And just then, another ethereal voice drifted from behind Zao Li,

“Having come this far, what is there to hesitate about, Miss Zao Li? Besides, they’re being so disrespectful to you—can you tolerate it?”

With these words entering her ears,

the fear on Zao Li’s face quietly faded, and her expression became cold.

That’s right…

“I am the Divine-Graced Maiden, one who has received the Lord’s blessing. You dare to be rude to me? Hehe…”

After taking a deep breath, Zao Li spoke coldly.

“Commit suicide.”

The icy words quietly spilled from the girl’s lips.

And when these words reached the two guards’ ears, both Lingyuan family guards trembled in unison. Then, their hands moved beyond their control, pressing their spiritual power-covered swords against their own necks.

?!!

This,

what was happening?!

“What, what the hell is going on?!!”

Unease and terror overflowed from the two guards’ eyes. They desperately mobilized their spiritual power trying to control their bodies, but their bodies seemed to have become marionettes at this moment, completely beyond the control of their own will.

The next moment.

“…”

Accompanied by spattering blood, the two powerful Divine Martial Realm guards collapsed in pools of blood just like that.

After dealing with the two guards, Zao Li turned to look at the two men in red robes behind her.

“How, how did it go?”

“The safe house has already been set to signal-blocking mode. Don’t worry, no one will notice what’s happening here.”

One of the red-robed men said with a light laugh.

While answering, his curious gaze under the hood also focused on the corpses of the two Lingyuan family guards.

“No matter how many times I see it, I still find it quite miraculous.”

The red-robed man commented with amusement, thoughtfully watching Zao Li’s back.

This Divine-Graced Maiden’s ability was quite interesting.

Just with words, she could forcibly control others’ bodies.

If not for relying on her ability,

we wouldn’t have been able to infiltrate the Lingyuan family manor so silently.

“No wonder Lord Duan wanted to keep this one around before.”

However,

perhaps because of Moande’s previous attack and the pressure from the Vassals of Sky on the northern border… the Lingyuan family’s defensive strength seemed to be much weaker than before?

Hehe.

Thinking this, the red-robed man couldn’t help but let out several contemptuous chuckles.

“Hurry up and act. If Luo Fei repels the Vassals of Sky and returns, we won’t have a chance.”

“I know, don’t rush me.”

Zao Li pursed her lips, protesting somewhat displeasedly.

After this,

Zao Li walked into the room and directed her gaze toward the two exquisitely carved little girls sitting on the sofa.

“Little ones, finally met you, hehe~”

The corners of her mouth turned up, an excited yet manic smile quietly emerging.

That’s right,

as the Divine-Graced Maiden of the Westivian Covenant, Zao Li had taken advantage of the Vassals of Sky attack… hiding from government officials, risking enormous danger to come to Wishaven and infiltrate the Lingyuan family, all to take away Lianna’s three children.

These three children were experimental subjects that Lord Duan was interested in. If she brought them back… Lord Duan would definitely recognize her value!

At that time, he absolutely wouldn’t abandon her!

Moreover,

as long as she could eliminate these three little Divine-Graced Maidens, her future position in the Westivian Covenant would be unshakeable.

Hehehehe…

Thinking this, Zao Li couldn’t help but let out sinister laughter in her heart.

However…

As if thinking of something, Zao Li calmed her emotions, her expression also becoming cold.

Rеad оո ΚαtRеαԁіոɡCаfe

Ailiya had run to the front lines, so it was understandable that she wasn’t in the manor.

Where did that bitch Lianna go?!

Recalling that absolutely beautiful face, Zao Li couldn’t help but clench her fists tightly. The humiliation she suffered at the Lingyuan family that day was still difficult for her to forget. Although the one who humiliated her was Xi Xuan…

But since she didn’t dare oppose Xi Xuan, Zao Li instinctively transferred her hatred to Lianna.

Therefore, during this infiltration, Zao Li also wanted to settle accounts with Lianna while she had the chance.

And grab the Sacred Stone from her hands! And force her to reveal how to use it!

With the Sacred Stone, her position would be rock solid!

At that time, she would become the woman with the highest status in this world.

Then,

no one,

would dare,

dare to look down on me anymore…

After a bout of manic internal monologue, Zao Li focused her sharp gaze on the twins and asked coldly:

“Where did your mother go?”

“Mama?”

After looking at each other, the twins shook their heads in unison.

This answer was within Zao Li’s expectations.

Just two little brats, what could they know.

“Fine, if you don’t know, you don’t know. I’ll take you back, and then… there are plenty of ways to force Lianna to come out.”

However?

Two guards died right in front of them? They’re not even afraid?

Taking in Miya and Weiya’s calm gazes, Zao Li instinctively felt something odd.

Forget it,

don’t overthink it…

Taking a deep breath, Zao Li quickly stepped forward, preparing to restrain the two little lolis and forcibly knock them unconscious to take them away.

“I’ll leave cleaning up the traces to you two.”

Zao Li didn’t forget to instruct the two people behind her.

As the Divine-Graced Maiden,

she naturally wanted to maintain her good reputation in the Covenant. Therefore, Zao Li didn’t want to leave any traces that would lead to the Lingyuan family discovering her later.

“Understood.”

The red-robed man replied indifferently.

While pulling out trace-cleaning tools from under his red robe, he leisurely walked into the room.

“Cleaning up the scene is what we at Paradise Manor are best at… hmm??”

However, as soon as he finished speaking, the red-robed man frowned.

Because he suddenly discovered in surprise—

there was actually someone sitting in the corner??

Since that person had no spiritual power aura around them, he hadn’t noticed her at first?

For a moment, the red-robed man’s heart even jumped violently.

But soon, he regained his composure and condensed spiritual power in his palm, forming it into a slender dagger.

“A maid? Tch, thought it was something else…”

Snorting disdainfully, the red-robed man prepared to eliminate the girl before him.

However,

soon, the red-robed man frowned in puzzlement.

The reason was simple…

Facing his intimidating aura at the peak of Divine Martial Realm and the approaching terrifying killing intent, this blue-white haired maid showed no reaction? She still sat there calmly with a peaceful expression.

Moreover,

beside this maid?

When did a cat and dog appear? And… why were this cat and dog smiling so lecherously??!!

Enmm,

why did something feel wrong?
