Chapter 244: There’s No Star Car (2)
Translator: Guy Gone Bad
“No a chance!” said Mo Yi disapprovingly, “The place we are at now is an uncultured city. There’s no star cars for sale here at all.”
“Then what should we do? If we can’t make it to the Sunset Forest in time, we’d delay the military operations. Prince Yu would be in trouble.” said Su Rong worriedly.
Qian Ye leaned on a tree drowsily, “Rongrong, don’t worry. Prince Yu would be in trouble, but we are safe. We can enjoy the sightseeing on the away and move to the Sunset Forest slowly.”
Su Rong rolled his eyes at him, “You can enjoy your sightseeing alone. We don’t have time for that.”
Qian Ye, “...”
Lou Yu then took out a map, saying after checking it carefully, “There is a valley nearby where lives a kind of two-headed turtledoves. They fly pretty fast.”
Mo Fei then looked over to Lou Yu, “You want to catch them to ride?”
Lou Yu nodded, “Exactly!”
Zheng Xuan looked at Lou Yu, saying hesitantly, “I heard those two-headed turtledoves are quite brutal and they’d rather die than being one’s ride. Really hard to tame.”
Lou Yu said disapprovingly, “I think we stand a chance to tame them.”
“Have you done that before?” asked Mo Fei while looking at the confident Lou Yu.
Lou Yu then wore an awkward expression, “I met one before, and I wanted to catch it as my mount...”
“And then?” Seeing Lou Yu make a pause, Qian Ye couldn’t help urging him.
“Then, it didn’t agree and then I beat it.” Lou Yu clenched his fists, showing a fierce expression.
“So did you beat it to surrender?” asked Mo Fei out of curiosity.
Lou Yu then looked quite embarrassed, “I didn’t control my power well and beat it to death.”
The crowed, “...”
Looking at their surprising faces, Lou Yu said, “Actually it’s already yielded, I just...I just didn’t control my strength well, and killed it by accident.”
Mo Fei shrugged his shoulders, “Then let’s go catch them now.”
Qian Ye gave Lou Yu a disdainful look and said to Mo Fei angrily, “Mo Fei, do you really buy his bullshit? Those two-headed turtledoves really have the bones, you know.”
Lou Yu said disapprovingly, “For others it might be difficult. But for our Childe Qian Ye, it’s like a piece of cake. Childe Qian Ye, you are so charming, can’t even subdue a few damn birds?”
Qian Ye, “...what you said...is reasonable.”
Nalan Family
“Still no news from Black Eagle?” asked Nalan Yue with a cold voice.
Nalan Xing shook his head, “Not yet. They haven’t sent news back for a whole day.”
“How is that possible?” said Nalan Yue, frowning.
Nalan Xing wore a very serious expression, “I have told them. As long as they have a breath, they should send back the news. But seen from now, maybe...” They already have no breath.
“It doesn’t make sense! Few people could survive from those Gold-eating ants. Even if Lou Yu and his people could have escaped, they should have consumed much of their energy. Black Eagle and his people are all top masters. Even if they are not their rivals, at least they would never been all killed in their hands.” said Nalan Yue disapprovingly.
Nalan Xing frowned, “Let’s wait. Maybe later there’d be some news.”
Nalan Yue pursed her lips, took a deep breath and said, “Is it possible something happened to them?”
Actually Nalan Xing also had such guess, he just couldn’t believe it, “Black Eagle has never failed his mission. I have sent some people to look for them. I think soon we’d get the news.”
While they were talking, a mid-aged man hurriedly walked in, “Father, bad news.”
Nalan Xing frowned while looking at that person, “Why in such a hurry! What happened?”
“Black Eagle and his people are all killed.” said the man, face ghastly pale.
Nalan Yue’s face immediately darkened, “How is it possible? Black Eagle is a level seven top master and the other four are also powerful, while on their side, only Zheng Xuan and Lou Yu are level six. Even if they are not their match, they shouldn’t have been all killed.”
The middle-aged man then handed a pile of photos to Nalan Xing with the bodies of Black Eagle and the others.
Nalan Yue took one of them, with a cold light flashing in her eyes, “What’s this about?”
The photo in Nalan Yue’s hand was a close-up view of the body of that woman in black.
“Those people we have sent checked the site. Black widow Ma Ru got her throat pierced through by a golden rose. And on Black Eagle’s body, we also found the trace that he have had a fight with a gold star magician.” said the middle-aged man.
Nalan Yue frowned, “So, this Qian Ye is quite suspicious.”
The middle-aged man nodded, “I think so. This Qian Ye should also be very powerful.”
Nalan Yue knitted her brows, face totally dark.
Nalan Xing gritted his teeth, “No wonder Prince Yu would have given him such special treatment. It turns out he is a master.”
In the palace, Lou Feng who had been expecting good news finally saw Nalan Yue’s figure at dusk, “Mother, any news from Lou Yu?” asked Lou Feng with a pair of anticipating eyes.
Nalan Yue then said with a disappointed tone, “The people we sent have failed.”
Lou Feng closed his eyes, “Mother, you told me you have everything well-arranged.”
Nalan Yue looked his son’s twisted face, trying to comfort him, “Afeng, don’t worry. Losing once doesn’t mean anything.”
Lou Feng wore a gloomy face, “But after this, he should have been very cautious. It’d be much harder to kill him.”
