Volume 3, Chapter 79 – Miss Bai Lianyue Wants to Sign a Contract~, Can It Work?

“An elf?!”

The moment he heard this word, Mu Yelan’s brow immediately furrowed tightly, as elves were humanity’s greatest enemy a thousand years ago.

Why would elves, who had been virtually nonexistent for these past several hundred years, suddenly appear now?

Moreover,

they even targeted the armory?

Although Mu Yelan already knew in his heart that the current army in his hands was completely powerless against the Vassals of Sky, this emperor had no intention of sitting and waiting for death. He had gathered a group of loyal and brave individuals, intending to defend Qingyan City to the death.

Even if death was certain, they had to make the Vassals of Sky pay some price.

And the heavy weapons just transferred to the weapons depot were one of their important assets.

The result?

All those military supplies were just gone like that?

That elf… received intelligence and came to sabotage in advance, right?!

For a moment, such a thought couldn’t help but emerge in Mu Yelan’s mind. Guided by angry emotions, Mu Yelan planned to personally meet this minion of the Vassals of Sky!

The successive defeats had long caused extremely suffocating emotions to build up in Mu Yelan’s heart.

Now, finally catching an existence related to the Celestial Blight, Mu Yelan naturally wanted to vent his emotions on the other party.

“Let’s go. I want to see what kind of bastard dares to invade our armory!”

Meanwhile,

on the other side, in Qingyan City’s most classified military dungeon.

In a transparent bulletproof glass cell sealed by multiple magical barriers and targeted by countless guns and cannons, a certain elf girl with gradient emerald and silver-white beautiful hair was sitting in confusion in the center of the cell.

Beside the elf girl was a certain pink octopus still enjoying an apple by herself.

Undoubtedly,

this signature combination of one elf and one octopus was clearly our Miss Bai Lianyue and Octopus Sister.

Surveying the familiar scene around her, the evil god miss couldn’t help but twitch her brow.

“…”

“Why am I in this kind of place again??”

Hmm?

Wait, why did I say ‘again’?

In any case, regarding being arrested and imprisoned once more, Bai Lianyue was quite bewildered. The bewildered girl viciously turned her gaze to the side, toward that heartless pink octopus who was still unscrupulously munching on an apple.

“Hey, you still have the nerve to eat? Eat, eat, eat—the more you eat, the dumber you get! Hmph!”

“Ying ying?”

Faced with Big Sister’s reproach, Octopus Sister first froze, then immediately her big eyes filled with aggrieved moisture.

“Wu wu… ying ying ying ying!” (How is this my fault? I was following Big Sister’s instructions to transport you to a place with lots of energy!)

“But why did you teleport us into their armory!”

“Ying ying ying!” (There’s plenty of energy here, perfect for Big Sister’s buffet! Plus there’s a tower next door with even more energy!)

Ling Xi muttered with righteous indignation.

“Ying ying ying!!” (It was clearly Big Sister who gave the instructions! Now you’re blaming me! Big Sister is a big meanie!! Senile!)

Her voice rarely carried a trace of complaint, as if venting all the anger accumulated from being bullied by the twins recently.

Faced with Octopus Sister’s resentful and aggrieved gaze, the evil god miss couldn’t help but freeze.

“Damn…”

Oh my,

when she put it that way?

It really seemed like she hadn’t given clear instructions earlier?

Recalling slightly the words she’d used when instructing Octopus Sister before, Bai Lianyue immediately frowned and somewhat awkwardly scratched her cheek.

Since she had just defeated a fragment of the Abyssal Lord…

the energy stored in her body was depleted, so after teleporting to Qingyan City, Bai Lianyue’s primary goal was to find a place to have a big meal…

Thus,

considering that when she was hungry, her brain was indeed somewhat unclear.

Her instructions probably weren’t complete, so perhaps she really couldn’t blame her?

However,

teleporting to a heavily guarded weapons depot??

Even a Corrupted Beast with some common sense wouldn’t do something so outrageous, right?

Bai Lianyue resigned herself to fate,

but not completely…

“Starting today, you’re banned from eating apples for a week.”

The evil god miss crossed her arms over her chest and said coldly.

“Ying ying?!!” (Why?!)

Octopus Sister asked with a devastated, pitiful expression.

“Hmph, because you dared to call me names just now!”

Pouting, the evil god miss, whose plans were completely disrupted, threw a tantrum like a child.

“Wu wu wu.”

Munching on her last apple, Octopus Sister curled up pitifully.

“Ying ying ying…” (How can this be, wu wu wu… my apples wu wu wu…)

However, tantrums aside, the evil god miss still needed to think about how to handle the current situation. Thus, the pouting elf girl somewhat awkwardly surveyed her surroundings. Since the walls around her were transparent, Bai Lianyue could clearly see the mechanical guards of the Kingdom of Qingyun and several high-ranking military officers stationed around the cell.

Unsurprisingly,

all the officers looking at Bai Lianyue had eyes filled with killing intent and hatred.

No matter how beautiful her appearance was, it couldn’t diminish that chilling coldness.

“Sigh, how did it turn out like this.”

Bai Lianyue awkwardly twirled her hair with her finger.

While watching the scene outside, her brain raced, thinking of a solution.

Originally,

after learning that Xi Xuan had come to support the Kingdom of Qingyun, Bai Lian wanted to come to the Kingdom of Qingyun to find Xi Xuan. However, since she couldn’t find Xi Xuan’s aura for a while, Bai Lian first came to the capital, Qingyan City.

After all,

she couldn’t tolerate the Vassals of Sky continuing to act so unscrupulously.

Although she was now an evil god, deep down… Bai Lianyue still felt a strong sense of belonging to humanity and was unwilling to watch a country be devoured by the Vassals of Sky like this.

As always,

she planned to stop all this.

For this reason, she came to the capital, wanting to make a deal with the current emperor of the Kingdom of Qingyun, Mu Yelan.

However,

wanting to make a deal, she had directly ‘invaded’ the capital’s weapons depot and accidentally crunched up all the weapons they planned to use for self-defense?

From the Kingdom of Qingyun’s perspective, wasn’t she obviously causing trouble?

Read оո ΚatRеаⅾіոɡСαfe

They must have taken her for someone who came to sabotage behind enemy lines!

Moreover,

were people so hostile toward elves now?

Feeling the naked hostility transmitted from outside the glass, the evil god miss couldn’t help but tremble.

Although someone had warned her about this in the past, the forgetful Miss Bai had obviously forgotten.

The current Bai Lianyue was struggling with how she should act next.

Should she directly break out of prison and then go find the emperor of the Kingdom of Qingyun?

Or should she stay honestly in the dungeon for now?

Fortunately, Bai Lianyue didn’t need to use her little brain for too long. Because just as the evil god miss was pondering, the dungeon door had already opened.

Surrounded by numerous guards, a man covered in wounds but with an extraordinary bearing walked step by step into the dungeon and came to the front of the transparent cage holding Bai Lianyue.

“You’re the elf who dared to target my armory?!”

“Hmm?”

Hearing this, the evil god miss snapped out of her thoughts and turned somewhat bewildered to look behind her.

The moment she saw the man’s face clearly, Bai Lianyue’s eyes contracted.

“You are? Mu Yelan? That emperor so foolish as to directly crusade against the Vassals of Sky without any self-awareness?”

Bai Lianyue said very straightforwardly, as always.

Hearing this,

not to mention Mu Yelan, even the surrounding guards couldn’t help but show displeased expressions.

“…”

Realizing she had inadvertently said the wrong thing again, the evil god miss awkwardly covered her mouth.

“Sorry, I didn’t mean it that way… what I meant was…”

“Cut the nonsense.”

Having no interest in listening to Bai Lianyue’s chatter, Mu Yelan directly interrupted.

“I came to find you for only one thing! Speak! Where exactly did you hide all those weapons from the armory!!”

“Uh, those weapons?”

Scratching her head, Bai Lian showed an awkward smile with some guilt.

Then,

in front of everyone’s suspicious faces, she pointed to her little mouth.

“Um, sorry… I accidentally ate them all…”

“What?”

At this moment, the prison fell into dead silence.

After an extremely brief yet oppressive silence, Mu Yelan shouted in exasperation:

“What nonsense are you spouting!! You really won’t drink the toast, so you’ll have to drink the punishment wine! It seems you won’t confess honestly without some serious torture!”

“No, no, that’s not it!”

Bai Lian felt somewhat like crying without tears.

Honestly,

where was the mutual trust between people?

I already told the truth, why is this person getting angry… can’t even distinguish right from wrong, no wonder he got beaten so badly…

The evil god miss grumbled resentfully in her heart.

However, she didn’t want to explain anything now. After all, it really couldn’t be explained clearly in a short time.

Since she had met the emperor, Bai Lianyue would be straightforward and directly reveal her purpose to him.

“Actually, where the weapons are doesn’t matter anymore. I have something more important!”

“What?”

Mu Yelan frowned tightly and spoke suspiciously.

“Do you want to save the Kingdom of Qingyun?”

“Why are you asking this?”

“…”

Taking a deep breath, the evil god miss slowly stood up, solemnly pressing her hand to her chest, and said in a friendly yet serious manner:

“If you do, then make a contract with me. I can save your country.”

Mu Yelan: ??

“Huh?”
