VOLUME 2: The Third Princess Overturns The World

CHAPTER 330: northern royal academy (1)

"I've called you here because I have something to ask, I know you're both informants so you should be very well aware." Yu Yue stared at them, she's been thinking about how to make them work for her.

"Please ask away palace lord, this humble one shall answer truthfully" Du Hua bowed respectfully as she answered. Now that she's wearing something appropriate she didn't look like a proprietress for a brothel. Her temperament was elegant, she was smart and flexible. Yu Yue instantly liked her direct and quick-witted personality, she's also not flattering so she regarded her highly.

"t-this little one will also answer the palace lord truthfully" noticing that he was standing there awkwardly Qing Yu also bowed and said respectfully while trying to minimize his presence which looks ridiculous because he stood out like a sore thumb with his figure and questionable taste. 

Yu Yue's mouth almost twitch when she saw him, though he changed clothes and didn't look as vulgar as yesterday his taste was still a bit tacky.

His chubby cheeks beamed smilingly like a buddha. just Although he looks tacky and exaggerated he wasn't repulsive, his figure also reminded her of little fatty before so she wasn't unkind to him. Just that, if little fatty likes food, this big fatty seems to like gold and silver most.

"what are your names?" Yu Yue asked casually.

"This humble one is called Du Hua" Du Hua introduced herself politely.

"This little one is called Qing Yu" Qing Yu replied while wiping his cold sweat. He was afraid of Hong Mei the most so he trembled a little when he felt that cold air aiming at him. He was told to change into something less vulgar but he really can't part with his gold and silver.

"Qing Yu?" Yu Yue's lips twitched visibly, she couldn't hide her smile anymore. Who would have thought that this chubby man with a painted face like a smiling buddha would be named light feather? That's just unfathomable to her.

"y-yes palace lord?" Qing Yu smiled while rubbing his palms nervously.

"ahem! I just want to ask you if you could identify which forces are not yet under the shadow lord's control" Yu Yue coughed to hide her smile.

"back to the palace lord, in the entire northern sky region only the royal academy, the hidden clans, and the guilds are not under the shadow lord" he replied quickly after wiping his cold sweat.

"Why is that?" Yu Yue asked doubtfully.

"the shadow lord's influence here isn't that big but it's frightening enough. Besides, he's been busy with his carpet search and sacrificing small villages. For now, he hasn't made his way in this region but in other regions, small villages and indigenous tribes have already become a nourishment for the death fog cultivators" this time Du Hua answered.

While listening Yu Yue could feel the hatred in her words, so she was curious. "what did they do to you?"

"They slaughtered my entire clan while being subject to their humiliation, I throw away my dignity and beg the shadow lord to spare me and I'm willing to do anything to work for him, since he was feeling good that time he agreed and I started working in red flower house. I was tasked to get close to the crown prince to monitor him," she said coldly, her anger could be fairly felt.
