Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
A powerful hurricane enveloped the whole of Green Maple City.
Everyone knows that the two great mercenaries of Green Maple City were like fire and water. Not too long ago, the Heavenly Wolf Mercenaries had joined hands with an external force to drive the World Destruction Mercenaries into the Nemesis Forest. However, on this day, the circumstances have suddenly changed.
In one day, the once formidable Heavenly Wolf Mercenaries which had once been considered to b on par with the World Destruction Mercenaries as one of the two great authorities of Green Maple City was thoroughly eliminated. Not a single one of them had remained!
From then onwards, there were no longer two great authorities; the World Destruction Mercenaries had unified Green Maple City!
In the World Destruction Mercenaries' territory.
Lan Ge stared at the woman in green in front of him as he opened and closed his mouth several times. Yet, due to some unknown reason, he still swallowed his words.
"If you have something to say, just say it."
Gu Ruoyun raised her brows as she looked at the man in front of her, "Oh, that's right. You can now wash that mole off your face."
Lan Ge was shocked as his blue, sapphire eyes filled with astonishment.
She had known!
She had actually known that I had applied this mole onto my own face with medicinal herbs?
"How did you know..."
"You're trying to ask how I had known that this mole was a fake? Or do you want to ask how I also know that you have great power?"
Gu Ruoyun smiled gently. Her smiling eyes looked as if she could see through everything clearly.
Lan Ge pondered for a bit nodding and asking, "I thought that I had hidden it very well but I never expected you to detect it. It's true that I really want to know how you've managed to understand me so well?"
Not even the Lan family knew about this!
"Don't forget, I am a Pill Master. When I first saw you, I could smell the medicinal herbs on your mole. I could even discern the type of medicinal herb you've used. As for your powers..." She paused as the smile on her face grew more pronounced, "Can you tell me why you've been living under a disguise?"
Lan Ge laughed bitterly, "I'm a demibeast human."
Gu Ruoyun was shaken. She had known about Lan Ge's identity as a demibeast human from the start but she never expected him to reveal it so easily.
"My mother was a spiritual beast and a princess from the Dragon Clan too! My father, however, is a human. A union between human and spiritual beast has long been an intolerable matter. I only need to strike once and others would find out about my identity as a demibeast human. When that happens, neither humans nor the Dragon Clan would shelter me! Hence, before my mother passed away, she had told me to never let anyone find out about my powers. Otherwise, there will be self-righteous people who would hunt and kill demibeast humans like me!"
Lan Ge's eyes darkened as he spoke. His features then filled with bitterness, "I had once stumbled upon a fellow demibeast human, a young woman. Due to having similar backgrounds, we became best friends. However, she had died in the end!"
At this moment, even as an outsider, Gu Ruoyun could sense the thick sorrow which had welled up within Lan Ge.
She could imagine how he must have felt.
If her own friends were to pass away some day, she would be just as desolate.
"Was she murdered by humans?"
Connecting the dots between Lan Ge's words, Gu Ruoyun soon understood the cause behind the demibeast human girl's death.
