Chapter 148 - 36: The Holy Lady’s Reward,



Translator: 549690339

Zhao Huai quickly returned to Jinzhou City with the two women in tow.

Qiu Yueqing walked behind gracefully and elegantly, well-behaved since scolded by Zhao Huai.

Once in the city, she couldn’t help but look around.

Her eyes were filled with curiosity as she looked at the bustling market streets, with the aroma of green onion pancakes and roasted chicken floating in the air, and the vendors hawking their wares from time to time.

This was a completely different world compared to the ethereal atmosphere of the Spiritual Mountains.

Since joining the Exquisite Palace, Qiu Yueqing had spent most of her time cultivating or slaying demons and exorcising devils, and had rarely seen the streets, alleys, and green slatestone paths of the human world.

Occasionally, an elderly man with a smoking pipe would walk out of a courtyard and look at Zhao Huai and his companions with a curious expression on their faces.

Yin Nanyu, however, maintained her cold demeanor. Her forehead was still wrapped in a turban, and her silver hair occasionally peeked out, attracting attention. She pulled her tattered robe to cover the raven pattern below her collarbone, not wanting to reveal her identity.

Their clothes hadn’t been changed since being pursued, making it easy for them to be exposed.

She had been here before, and it seemed that there was a Raven Sub-Bureau in the state.

If she could contact the local sect members, it would be much more convenient to carry out her plans.

Now that the Raven Sect was hiding from the Imperial Court of Xia Country, they wouldn’t dare to show their faces without her orders.

Zhao Huai, followed by the two women, inevitably attracted the gossip of the neighbors as they walked on the streets. “Boss Zhao went out for a few days and brought back another concubine?”

“My goodness, what a healthy body he has!” “Yeah, I wouldn’t be able to handle it if it were me!”

Zhao Huai ignored these gossips naturally.

He returned to the front of his pawnshop’s door, which was locked. There was no one in Huai’s pawnshop at the moment, as it was closed for the day.

Zhao Huai scanned the courtyard with his Divine Insight but didn’t see Madam.

He assumed she must have gone out.

He took out his keys, opened the door, and said, “Madam isn’t home…”

With curious eyes, Qiu Yueqing wanted to see the woman who had captured the Royal Crown Prince’s heart and what she looked like.

She was unexpectedly able to make him infatuated with her.

Yin Nanyu glanced at the three-story tile-roofed building and thought to herself that it wasn’t as luxurious as she had imagined, looking quite ordinary.

Zhao Huai climbed the stairs, scratched his head, and said, “My sister-in-law is staying in the guest room, so we might be short on rooms. I’ll rent a room for you two at the inn across the street. I’m good friends with the boss.”

“Thanks, young master.” Qiu Yueqing accepted without hesitation and continued, “Your safety is of utmost importance, young master. I will investigate the city and do my best to identify any hidden demons. Staying across the street would be ideal.”

“There’s no time to waste, let’s start now.”

After saying that, she walked out the door, transformed into a streak of light, and disappeared into the sky.

Her Divine Insight at the Golden Core Realm was broad enough to cover half a city without any problem. With her in the center of the sky, she could oversee the entire city wall.

Zhao Huai looked at the departing Exquisite Fairy and couldn’t help but sigh inwardly.

She was very dedicated to her job.

Then he turned to the remaining Yin Nanyu, who was still wearing tattered clothes. From time to time, her fair skin could be seen, just like when he had found her by the river.

This was indeed inappropriate and against etiquette, so Zhao Huai said, “I’ll get you some clothes.”

He went into the bedroom and brought out several loose robes that he had worn before.

Yin Nanyu took the clothes silently, her eyes fixed on Zhao Huai, her expression difficult to utter. She wanted to speak but didn’t say anything.

Seeing her like this, Zhao Huai suddenly realized his mistake and said, somewhat embarrassed, “Look at my memory! I’ll go out. Call me when you’re done changing.”

The sound of the door closing echoed.

Yin Nanyu stared at the clothes in her hand and fell into a trance.

Thinking back, it seemed unreal that she had been pursued all the way from the capital city to Jinzhou and met the Crown Prince of Yan Country. When the high-ranking members of the Raven Sect exploded their Qi Seas, only she managed to escape.

Now, where should the future of the Raven Sect start?

She initially thought that she could grow the Raven Sect after Yu Daocheng’s death and take advantage of the chaos, but who would have thought that the “White-clothed Ghost Face” would appear and completely disrupt her plans.

Later, she got targeted by the Imperial Court of Xia Country and ended up with all the blame on her shoulders.

The purge in the capital had severely wounded the elite forces of the Raven Sect.

While the lower-ranking members were unaffected, the core forces were significantly weakened.

Fortunately, she escaped.

Nothing was more worth celebrating than escaping death.

At the thought of this, she felt thankful to the pig demon.

If it weren’t for him, she might have committed suicide.

She could vaguely recall the fragmented memories of being carried on a man’s shoulder.

The pig demon was likely a human being.

She had a feeling that it was Zhao Huai.

To repay his kindness, she wouldn’t let him down. She would definitely make him one of her own.

Slowly, Yin Nanyu removed her clothes, revealing her fair body that still bore the scars from her battle with the gatekeeper of the Limitless Immortal Sect..
