190: Chapter 190 Jing Yue is here

This!

Listening to this news, Jing Yue felt herself go completely numb.

This news was simply too terrifying.

Her Older Sister had suddenly leaped to become a powerful weapon spirit?

No wonder there had been no news for so long; she wasn't an Encryption machine anymore, so how could there be any news?

Hmph!

She had been here pining for her day and night!

What a bad person!

However, Jing Yue was also happy for her Older Sister that she could form a Contract with such a figure and become a powerful weapon spirit.

At the same time, she thought of what her uncle had just said—that Ye Qing actually possessed such energy. She knew her Older Sister too well; her sister was exactly like her, both being weapon spirits of Encryption machines.

But now she had become so powerful.

Ye Qing must have played a part in this.

Since she was the same as her Older Sister, if she formed a Contract with Ye Qing, could she also become such a powerful weapon spirit?

As she thought about it, a blush crept onto Jing Yue's face.

Oh?

King Fenghai looked at Jing Yue's expression and could more or less guess what she was thinking.

However, he didn't say anything. After all, he favored these two nieces of his; whatever kind of life they chose, he would protect and support them.

He thought it was better to first see what news had come from the Jiangcheng Barrier.

After all, several Stars of Huaxia from the Eastern War Zone, including Ye Qing, were currently gathered at the Jiangcheng Barrier, waiting to absorb the king-level exotic beast essence blood.

He opened the report and began reading.

A moment later, he let out a sharp intake of breath.

"This?"

Seeing her uncle's unusual reaction, Jing Yue felt puzzled. What was wrong?

Why did her uncle have such a big reaction?

"What is it, Uncle?"

"Take a look. This Ye Qing... I really don't know what to say about him. This fellow is just too good at stirring things up; he's always coming up with something new to surprise me."

With that, Jing Yue took three steps in two, hurriedly taking the report to look at it.

"Is this... a mineral vein?"

Jing Yue narrowed her eyes; this mineral vein did not look simple.

"Uncle, this is the first mineral vein discovered within Huaxia, isn't it?"

"Yes, I understand what you mean. That's why I said this kid has given me a surprise. With this first one, there will surely be a second and a third. Nothing like this has been found in the Outlands yet. Since we found it first, we've gained the upper hand and more power in the battle against those exotic beasts."

"Ye Qing really is a lucky star for our Eastern War Zone—no, for the entire Huaxia."

King Fenghai spoke while looking at Jing Yue, "In a moment, send out my arrangements. I'll call some people to go to the Jiangcheng Barrier to take a look and conduct a specific survey to see what the reserves and quality are like. If they're good, I'll have the other City Lords explore within their territories, and also report to headquarters so the other military zones can start searching too."

Hearing her uncle's words, Jing Yue stood there and began to hesitate.

There were things she wanted to say, but she didn't know how to say them.

"What's wrong? Why are you standing there without moving?" King Fenghai asked, noticing Jing Yue's odd behavior.

"Uncle, I also want to go to the Jiangcheng Barrier. I... I... I miss my sister and want to visit her."

As Jing Yue spoke, a blush colored her face.

This...

Sigh.

This little girl couldn't hide anything now.

She said one thing, but the expression on her face already too clearly expressed the thoughts in her heart.

"Fine, go along with the team I'm sending out this time. Go see how your sister is doing. I don't have anything here that needs your help, so you don't need to rush back. Stay there for a while longer."

After those few sentences from King Fenghai, the blush on Jing Yue's face became even more obvious.

"Okay, Uncle."

She said a word and then hurried out.

Looking at Jing Yue's flustered appearance, King Fenghai couldn't help but chuckle. He had watched these two girls grow up; from the looks of it, they were likely going to be won over by the same boy.

A moment later.

The team outside had assembled.

Jing Yue joined them and set off.

By the time they reached the Jiangcheng Barrier, it was already night.

Jing Yue parted ways with them. She inquired about the Dongshan Mountain Villa where Ye Qing was staying and headed there on her own.

Shouldn't she give her Older Sister a surprise?

She approached the Dongshan Mountain Villa.

Looking at the situation there, she thought, "What a large villa. It must be said that Ye Qing's influence is quite large now; he's warmly received wherever he goes."

"This should be the residence given to Ye Qing by the Jiangcheng Barrier military."

Jing Yue analyzed, then she prepared to listen to the situation inside from outside the manor before entering.

She came to the wall, preparing to listen.

But she didn't notice at all that beneath the ground behind her, a dark shadow was gathering.

An instant later, a hidden guard appeared behind her.

This!

Jing Yue realized too late. Although she was facing the wall, a woman's sixth sense told her that there was someone behind her!

In an instant, a chill rose from beneath her feet, making her heart turn cold. This!

She whipped her head around, and then a Black-robed figure appeared in her vision.

"Ah!"

A scream rang out as she slammed her back against the wall.

Thud!

Hmm?

At the same time, on the other side of the wall, the Six-Winged Sky Tiger was eating when it suddenly heard the sound from outside. Then, with a flash of light, its massive body emerged.

It poked its head over the wall.

Looking down.

Ready to see what was going on.

On this side, the panic-stricken Jing Yue looked at the Black-robed figure in front of her and was just about to say something when she suddenly felt as if the moonlight above her head was being blocked.

She slowly looked up.

Then, she saw a giant tiger head above her, its predatory tiger eyes staring right at her.

That build, that size.

It felt as if with one roll of its tongue, it could pull her into its body and devour her!

"Aaaah!"

"Monster!"

"Sister, Sister, where are you! There's a monster!"

Jing Yue immediately wailed.

She was starting to regret it now. Why did she come to the Jiangcheng Barrier, why did she come to the Dongshan Mountain Villa, and why did she sneak here all by herself?

Now look what happened; not only did she not see her sister, she was cornered here.

According to this development, she feared that her fate with her sister in this life was at an end.

In an instant, even for Jing Yue, a sense of desolation rose in her heart.

She was about to die.
