Overlord, Love Me Tender

“Then… the person who awarded the mission for the Exquisite Pagoda, could he be…..” Qiao Jin suddenly stood up as the index finger which he pointed up trembled, “I thought of many ways to investigate the person who awarded this mission but could not find anything at all.”

“There’s a huge possibility.” Ye Qing Luo nodded.

If Yuchi Peng and Duke Jing were merely a piece of chess under the dark forces, then… the so-called Exquisite Pagoda was probably also another chess piece under them.

Otherwise, how could it be so coincidental.

When she led the team to register their mercenary group, they coincidentally met the Iron Blood Warriors?

“Wait…” Ye Qing Luo suddenly frowned, as her expression congealed slightly, “How did the dark forces find out that I wanted to set up a mercenary group?”

When she raised this question, the entire main hall’s atmosphere turned heavy.

Sixty over youngsters looked at each other in dismay as they realised the seriousness of the problem.

Their whereabouts…..

Were under the surveillance of the dark forces?

If this was really like that…..

Then it was just too scary!

Goose bumps started raising on their bodies as they couldn’t help but rub their arms.

“Not necessarily.” Di Mo Xuan’s brows rose as that extremely common face billowed when accompanied with that pair of peach blossom eyes, “Dark forces may appear by your side without any notice, and academies naturally have their own forces.”

Ye Qing Luo nodded her head as she was enlightened.

Her eyes suddenly lit up as though she thought of something.

Dark forces….

That day when she was in the second storey of the library pavilion, the secret conversation that she heard between the Director and the guardian.

She recalled that the guardian mentioned about the freshmen and the Director mentioning that he kept a tight watch over the freshmen…

Could it be that, the Lord in the guardian’s words, that guardian…. Was a member of the dark forces?

This thinking shocked Ye Qing Luo so much that her expression turned extremely grave.

If the Director listened to the dark forces, then Heavenly Academy would be in trouble…..

Seeing the chance in Ye Qing Luo’s expression, Di Mo Xuan leaned over and touched her forehead which was filled with perspiration, “What are you thinking of?”

“N, Nothing.” Ye Qing Luo brushed his hand aside as her spine felt slightly chilly.

She slowly shook her head. These were just her mere guesses as she didn’t have any real evidence.

The Director might really have a problem but he was after all the Director who had held the reins for several decades at Heavenly Academy.

Furthermore, from the short span of time which she had spent with the Director, he bore a huge ambition.

He loved standing from a top position to overlook other people’s feelings.

If there was no Heavenly Academy, then he was nothing at all.

No matter what he did, he would never do anything disadvantageous to the academy.

She was thinking along this line when Ye Qing Luo casted the thinking behind her, “Your meaning is… if the dark forces aim is me, then the other party should have guessed that I wouldn’t be law abiding and stay in the Ye family during the holidays.”

Ye family had Ye Qing Qian.

Ye Qing Qian had already made a deal with the dark forces.

She had once mentioned that in the Ye family, that during the three days of holidays, she and the devil class students will go for a “tour”.

It must have been Ye Qing Qian who informed the dark forces about this news.

Dark forces made use of Iron Blood Warrior’s Yuchi Peng just so that they could lead a conflict between Ye Qing Luo’s group and the Iron Blood Warriors.

Then…..

Did the dark forces know that The World group were devil class’ students?

What was dark forces’ aim in doing so?

Numerous questions were swirling around in her head.

A large palm covered her head.

Di Mo Xuan had unknowingly stood behind her. One of his hands was placed on her shoulder while the other smoothed her hair.

A warm palm with soothing sandalwood smell enveloped Ye Qing Luo.

His mellow voice radiated with a stability which eased one’s heart, “Dark forces did this probably so that they could borrow the dark forces’ strength to lead you and to control you.”
