164: Chapter 154 164: Chapter 154 The Earl’s face wore a puzzled expression, as the person disappeared suddenly just like that day, and their traces could not be located.
“This isn’t good, we need to stay alert,” the Earl said, “that person has spotted us and is now hiding.”
The Earl held his Magic Wand in hand, muttering a Curse under his breath.
Concealed within the Invisible Gourd, the Taoist, who originally planned to catch these foreigners by surprise and kill them, suddenly realized they had taken out that very powerful object.
Unable to deal with it, he chose to remain quietly hidden.
“Heh heh heh heh”
Hidden in the trees, Long Feifeng suddenly burst into loud laughter.
Her laughter echoed eerily through the forest, sending shivers down one’s spine.
“Demon, come out and meet your death.” The Viscounts, having never encountered such a situation, fearfully hid behind the Earl, swinging their sticks wildly.
Ye Tian, with Yan Weiwei by his side, watched from a distance, holding an Illuminating Mirror.
The sudden invisibility of the Taoist was useless against him, as every move of the Taoist was visible before his eyes.
In the mirror held by Ye Tian, Yan Weiwei could see those that the others could not: they were inside an invisible, transparent Jade Gourd.
Knowing that Ye Tian was an Artifact Refining genius with all kinds of Magical Treasures, including one that could reveal the invisible, Yan Weiwei found it very novel.
Angered by Long Feifeng’s laughter, the Taoist abruptly seized the two women he had been hiding and placed them right before him inside the gourd.
Under the influence of the illusion-inducing drug, Long Feifeng, together with a palace maid, entered the Invisible Gourd, flanking the Taoist on either side, each gripping one of his arms.
“You are very handsome, just like the candidate I have in mind.
How do you come to resemble Young General Ye so much?
Could you be Young General Ye?
I have been searching for you for days, and finally, I’ve found you,” Long Feifeng, confused by the drug, saw in front of her the Ye Tian she had been fantasizing about.
“Are you Ye Tian?
You are so handsome.
No wonder the Princess is so fond of you.
If the Princess likes you, so do I,” the palace maid continued with a silly laugh, seeing before her a handsome, young, and attractive man.
The Taoist, with a woman on each side embracing him, was quite pleased, except for the fact that they were talking about another man.
He pinched the arms of the two women, then pinched their faces.
“Handsome, I’ll take care of you in a while.
Right now, I need to deal with those people first.
You just behave yourselves,” he said.
Ye Tian and Yan Weiwei, standing in the distance, heard the voice of the Illuminating Mirror speak, and she glanced at her senior brother again.
She had always felt her senior brother was mysterious, and now it turned out he was a Young General.
No wonder a princess and palace maids were so fond of Ye Tian.
Yan Weiwei felt a sudden sense of loss, thinking her ordinary background did not match up to her senior brother’s.
Ye Tian frowned as he watched Long Feifeng and the palace maid.
At this moment, he surmised that both were drugged.
As part of his duty as Guardian God and also as a subject, he had to rescue the Princess.
Yet, Long Feifeng and the palace maid looked at the Taoist with infatuated eyes, mistaking him for Ye Tian, which irked him.
How could he be pleased when someone else was used as his substitute, and to top it off, an unworthy one at that?
Ye Tian felt annoyed, but he held back.
He wanted to see who was truly aligned with whom among these two groups.
Why were people from a Different Race following the Taoist as if harboring deep-seated hatred?
The Taoist launched a stealth attack on the Earl and his men.
Concealed inside the Invisible Jade Gourd, the adversaries were completely unaware of their position.
