Douluo Continent: The Holy Evil Emperor.

Chapter 63: Upon entering the city, I saw Huo Gua being beaten (Seeking first subscription!)

Just before entering the dense forest, Xu Jiujiu turned back and took a deep look at Ye Qing's back.

Just as she said, she found Ye Qing to be a really interesting person. He maintained a safe distance from her from beginning to end, which was completely different from the people she had met in the past.

However, she wouldn't put too much thought into Ye Qing. She was an imperial princess, high above everyone else. If she were to meet this interesting person again by chance, she would be happy to ask him his name and make friends with him.

As for now.

No need.

If it's just a one-time encounter, all these things are unnecessary.

"Hehe, I hope to see you again. After all, you are quite interesting." Xu Jiujiu chuckled and walked briskly towards Xingluo City.

After finishing her meal, she slowed down considerably, but the delicious lunch had indeed lifted her spirits considerably. A pleasant smile graced her lips, and she hummed a melodious tune.

……

After a long while, Ye Qing smiled and gave the same evaluation as her.

That's why this princess is really interesting.

Ye Qing only spent a short hour with Xu Jiujiu, but the rationality he observed in her was something that no other woman in the Douluo Continent possessed. Even Zhang Lexuan couldn't be as clear-headed as Xu Jiujiu.

This is so weird.

As the place where the god of love fell, Douluo Continent has long been cursed. Almost everyone here is obsessed with love. Now, suddenly, Xu Jiujiu, a normal woman who has not fallen ill, appears.

Wow, this is so cool! This is really rare.

Compared to Xue Lingxun, the princess of the Douling Empire who ran away from home to the Xuanming Sect and gave birth to Xu Sanshi, Xu Jiujiu is so rational that she doesn't seem like a person from Douluo Continent at all. The difference in their styles is too severe.

But that's what makes it interesting, isn't it?

"I wonder how the Darkness of the Abyss will guide someone as rational as you? It's something to look forward to." Ye Qing turned to look in the direction where he had left long ago, a meaningful smile appearing on his lips. He casually extinguished the fire and headed towards Star Luo City along another road.

Meeting Xu Jiujiu was an unexpected surprise, and building a good relationship with her was just a small step. Even if he hadn't met her, he would still have gone to the Starlight Auction House anyway.

The original work clearly states that the Soul-Devouring Carving Knife was acquired by the Starlight Auction House long ago, and it failed to sell at auction several times, until the Starlight Auction House set the starting price at 100,000 gold soul coins.

We just can't sell them!

So at this time, the Soul-Devouring Carving Knife was obviously still kept at the Starlight Auction House, but no one dared to buy it, and it was just gathering dust.

Since it was unclear how many times the Soul Devouring Carving Knife had failed to sell at auction, or what its current auction price was, Ye Qing asked Ye Feng for 500,000 gold soul coins just in case, as a precaution.

That's definitely enough.

Such evil things, no matter how expensive, can't be that expensive.

Only I, the pure and innocent Ye Qing-sama, can tame this great scourge!

Get ready to catch the demon!

……

Because Xu Jiujiu was taking a leisurely stroll towards Xingluo City, Ye Qing arrived there earlier than her. After paying the city guards two silver soul coins for entry, Ye Qing entered the capital of the Xingluo Empire.

To be honest, it feels similar to Shrek City.

As someone who came from Shrek Academy, Ye Qing wouldn't act like a country bumpkin just because Star Luo City is big enough, looking around like he'd never seen anything like it before, since he'd already seen everything he needed to see in Shrek City.

He has no interest in seeing things he shouldn't be seeing right now.

But since he had already arrived in Xingluo City, Ye Qing didn't mind taking a stroll around the city. He casually stopped a passerby selling candied hawthorns, bought one, and then enjoyed the candied hawthorns while observing the local customs and culture of Xingluo City.

Compared to Shrek City, a mixed city with residents from various countries, Star Luo City has a strong ethnic character characteristic of the Star Luo Empire.

After returning this time, if Ye Qing goes to Shrek City again, he will probably be able to easily identify which buildings have the characteristics of the Star Luo Empire.

Ye Qing wandered around aimlessly, not caring where he was going. He didn't have a specific destination in mind, so he just wandered wherever he felt like, figuring he could find a hotel when it got dark.

As the crowd slowly moved forward, Ye Qing noticed that there were fewer and fewer pedestrians and vendors on this road. He had originally intended to find some fun and was about to switch to a more lively food street when he heard a scream coming from the side road ahead.

Ye Qing originally had no interest in it. After all, there were far too many cases of Soul Master nobles bullying ordinary people in Douluo Continent. He had no interest in getting involved in such trivial matters. However, a childish voice made him stop in his tracks.

"Don't hit my mom!"

This work was compiled and uploaded by [author's name].

It was a boy's young, sharp voice.

"No way?" Ye Qing blinked and tilted her head to look at the distance along the path.

There, a woman dressed in old clothes with long flaxen hair braided was holding a little boy with blue hair in her arms, while two men who looked like servants were punching and kicking her.

Let's look at the end of the path.

The tall, vermilion courtyard walls, the two tiger-shaped stone sculptures, and the magnificent, ornately decorated courtyard gate—most importantly, the pure gold plaque hanging above the gate.

White Tiger Duke's Mansion.

Okay, case solved. As soon as we entered the city, we saw Lao Huo being beaten. No, it wasn't even him being beaten, but his miserable mother who was always being dragged out to gain sympathy and pick up girls.

Ye Qing patted his forehead, thinking helplessly, "I never expected that my first meeting with the original protagonist would be under such circumstances. It's rather dramatic."

Before arriving in Xingluo City, Ye Qing had wondered if he would happen to run into Huo Yuhao, but he did not expect that he would not only run into him, but also run into him as soon as he entered the city.

"Poor protagonist, your tragic life has only just begun." Ye Qing glanced at Huo Yuhao with a gloating (crossed out) look and a pitying gaze, then turned and left while eating his candied hawthorn.

help?

LOL, what a joke!

If Huo Yuhao in the original novel had destroyed the White Tiger Duke's Mansion in the later stages of the story, he would have shown some courage, and Ye Qing would have helped him no matter what. But since he was willing to change his surname to Dai and become a dog, Ye Qing could only say that he should respect other people's fate.

Helping Huo Yuhao wouldn't benefit him at all; he might as well learn more about the Starlight Auction House and find a way to get his hands on the Soul-Devouring Carving Blade as soon as possible.

After all, his vacation was only a month long. He not only needed to get the Soul Devouring Carving Knife, but also needed to go to the Star Dou Great Forest to get a 70,000-year fourth soul ring.

He doesn't have time to waste here.
