Original God's Dark Priest

Ye Lan's strength is unquestionable. When she identifies a criminal, that is often the time when the criminal is caught.

The three of them came to the camp of the treasure-stealing group together, and indeed saw a member of the group.

The other party was very surprised to see them, but he was not afraid at all, and even shouted: "Hey! Who are you? Where are you from?"

Ye Lan ignored him, but turned around to look at the supplies in the camp, and soon found the stolen items. She nodded slightly: "Well... the evidence is conclusive.

Come on, confess and I'll give you some leniency. I advise you not to wear out my patience, okay?"

"Nonsense!" The treasure-stealing group was like a cat whose tail was stepped on, and said in a timid tone, "I... I am afraid of you?"

"Then you should be more afraid." Ye Lan twisted her neck and moved her wrists. "It's been a long time since I fought with anyone. This time, let's just warm up."

After saying that, she instantly turned into a shadow and rushed towards the treasure-stealing group with mist.

The treasure-stealing group's hair stood on end when they saw this, and they subconsciously raised the daggers in their hands. Unfortunately, that was all they could do.

Because in the next second, Ye Lan kicked him directly in the lower abdomen with a crotch kick at an odd angle, and the powerful kick sent the treasure-stealing group flying backwards.

Ying took a breath and muttered to herself: "If this goes down a little further..."

The treasure-stealing group crashed into a rock, then fell to the ground helplessly, holding their chests and starting to cough violently.

"Is he such a difficult person to deal with? Now that things have come to this, we can only give it a try!" The treasure-stealing group said, and suddenly took out a bottle of golden potion and poured it into their mouths.

When Ying saw the bottle of potion, she immediately exclaimed, "This is the potion that Saphir put up for sale in Bubulu! It was actually bought by the Treasure Stealing Group!"

"Does that thing have any special effects?" Ye Lan asked cautiously. She knew that anything related to Saphir was usually not simple.

Ying frowned and thought for a while, then said with certainty: "It should be healing and purifying the pollution in the abyss."

"Then it has nothing to do with improving your strength?" Ye Lan got the answer, chuckled, then flew up, kicked the treasure-stealing group that just stood up again, and stepped on their chests.

The treasure-stealing group that was stepped on was still in shock. He had stolen this bottle of potion from a merchant. Before stealing it, he chatted with the merchant, who said it was a magical medicine that could unleash the body's potential.

He was stunned when he heard it, and believed it to be true. However, after drinking it, he found that this thing was actually a healing potion.

After drinking it, the injured area no longer hurts. In terms of therapeutic effect, it can indeed be considered a miracle drug, but... does this have anything to do with unleashing the body's potential?

The businessman was indeed cunning and sly! This time, I was cheated.

After realizing this, the treasure-stealing group immediately began to beg for mercy: "Please spare our lives!"

"It's a bit late to shout. What's the point of asking for mercy now..." Ye Lan put a little force on her feet, which immediately made the treasure-stealing group cough and almost suffocate.

Looking at the struggling treasure-stealing group under her feet, Ye Lan suddenly revealed a smile: "I suddenly understand why Safir likes to step on people so much... This... is indeed quite interesting..."

"Don't imitate her in a weird place!" Little Paimon was furious. "Why did you reach such a weird agreement in a place like this?"

"I was wrong, I was wrong! I know I'm scared! Please have mercy..." The treasure-stealing group begged for mercy desperately, hoping for a chance to save their lives.

Ye Lan let go of the treasure-stealing group that had become as cowardly as a bean paste bun: "Humph, explain it yourself. You only have one chance, don't let me ask any more questions, otherwise..."

The warning in her eyes was not concealed, leaving no doubt that she would kill someone in the next second. Little did they know that she was chatting and laughing with Ying in the last second, and threatening people in the next second. In the eyes of the treasure-stealing group, she was completely crazy.

"I understand! I understand very well!" The treasure-stealing group immediately struggled to get up from the ground, swore and vowed, and almost knelt down to show their loyalty.

Ye Lan glanced at him without saying anything. The treasure-stealing group immediately understood and stopped talking nonsense. Instead, they confessed honestly: "It's... the holidays are coming soon. I also want to buy some things to improve my life...

Even though I am a member of the treasure-stealing group, I don’t have much experience in petty thefts. If you ask me to rush into someone’s house… I really don’t dare.”

"Okay! You're complaining again!" Little Paimeng looked indignant.

The treasure-stealing group panicked upon seeing this: "Don't dare! I'm only telling the truth."

"Well...you continue." Ye Lan stared at the treasure-stealing group, her eyes full of mockery. She could naturally tell that this guy was not telling the truth. How could he get that kind of potion if it wasn't a petty theft?

That thing is very expensive. It is usually bought by the General Affairs Department and distributed to subordinate miners to prevent abyss erosion. Ordinary people have to pay a high price if they want to buy it.

He definitely can't buy this thing if he doesn't have money. If he does have money, then the previous sentence is a lie. No matter how you think about it, he is not honest.

But Ye Lan did not rush to expose him, but waited to see what he was going to say.

The treasure-stealing group seemed to sense the murderous intent in Ye Lan's eyes, and shuddered. Their tone became more sincere: "I thought about it and finally recalled my childhood. The bandits blew the horn, and my grandma took us and ran away...

I just… I just tuned it according to the song I remembered. At first I just wanted to give it a try! I didn’t expect that family actually ran away…

How can I not take the meat that is right in front of me? I…I mean…I know I was wrong now, I will return it to them as it is. Please be kind and be lenient…"

He said, clasping his hands together, begging.

Ye Lan turned her back and said, "Do you want to give me a lighter sentence, or settle it privately... so that I don't let you spend the Lantern Festival in prison?"

"Yes...that's what I mean." The treasure-hunting team felt that they still had hope and nodded immediately.

Ye Lan sneered, turned around, and looked at him with a playful expression: "You have a good plan, but it's a pity that I gave you a chance, but you didn't cherish it."

"I've told you everything honestly!" The treasure-stealing group looked horrified.

But Ye Lan was too lazy to listen to his nonsense, and directly used the elemental combat skills, and the silk thread formed by the water element tied him up tightly: "Whether you told the truth or not, you know it in your heart. Or, whether you were lying just now... guess, did I find it out?"

"Ah!" The treasure-stealing team groaned in pain. He really didn't expect that this woman was both good at fighting and alert, her IQ crushed his, and she had extremely rich experience in handling cases. But her small lie was completely seen through. Now he didn't have any chance at all.

"Come with me, sir." Ye Lan pulled the silk thread in her hand, and the treasure-stealing group took two steps forward, completely without the strength to resist. "Return the things, and follow me to find the person involved. After I apologize in person, I will escort you to the General Affairs Department."

She didn't intend to delve too deeply into it, but considering that the other party had the guts to lie after being caught, he must be taught a lesson.

This little bit of physical pain can be considered as interest.

The treasure-stealing group took a look at the light blue silk threads on their bodies, and the last bit of fantasy in their hearts was completely shattered. They lowered their heads in resignation.

Glancing at the dejected treasure-stealing group, Ye Lan lowered her eyes slightly and said, “You were also a victim, so you should be able to understand the fear the best.

Is greed more important than your fear? Besides, with that talent, wouldn't it be great if you could find a decent job to support yourself?"

"Having said that... but, who can make money from this nowadays... I'm at my wits' end." The treasure-stealing group sighed. He had a talent for music since he was a child and had a good sense of music. He had also thought about pursuing a career in music.

But unfortunately, learning music costs money. His parents died early, and he was raised by his grandmother. He had no money to buy musical instruments. Later, his grandmother also passed away. He was left alone and had no great talent, so he eventually joined the treasure-stealing group.

He has wasted his time and achieved nothing. All that remains is his sensitivity to melody. However, he did not receive any professional education when he was a child, and after joining the treasure-hunting group, he has no time to think about related issues.

He also wanted to be an upright person, but God did not give him such an opportunity. He had no ability, no opportunity, no talent, no relatives, no friends. He seemed to be born in the mud and could not resist sinking into deeper mud.

He felt that none of this was his problem, but what he never thought of was that joining a treasure-stealing group was never his only choice.

The so-called being born this way is nothing more than an excuse to make oneself feel at ease.

Ye Lan was too lazy to argue with him and snorted coldly: "Hmph, I've stopped here. You'll have plenty of time to reflect on it later."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Ying and Little Paimon and said, "Ying, I will take care of the finishing touches. Let's say goodbye here."

"Thank you for your hard work." Ying felt that Ye Lan seemed to be in a bad mood, but she didn't know what to do, or she could just pretend not to see it.

Ye Lan looked at everything in the camp, frowned, and seemed to be thinking about something.

Seeing her like this, even little Paimon noticed her hesitation, so he asked, "Anything else?"

Ye Lan shook her head: "I don't know where your information came from yet. For safety reasons, you don't need to mention me to anyone when you return."

Ying was about to refuse, but Ye Lan suddenly leaned close to her ear and said softly, "You are the ones who did the searching and arresting. It is not wrong to give you the credit. Please accept it. I will be very happy."

Ying felt a burst of heat near her ears, which made her a little distracted.

The next second, Ye Lan led the treasure-stealing group away. Before leaving, she smiled slightly and said, "If you really feel bad, please say a few good words to the boss for me. After all, I'm counting on her year-end bonus to celebrate the Lantern Festival well.

Goodbye, and I wish you a happy Lantern Festival. "

Ye Lan walked away. Looking at her receding back, little Paimeng couldn't help but sigh: "Ye Lan is really efficient. I feel relieved to leave it to her."

Suddenly, she spun quickly in the air and said in a brisk tone: "Clang clang - sudden incident, strange melody, completed!"

Her funny look made Ying laugh.

Seeing Ying laugh, little Paimeng also laughed. The two of them laughed and then fell silent. Little Paimeng sighed, "Ah, speaking of which, in the end, we didn't find a chance to ask the treasure-stealing group members to play that melody again. It's a bit of a pity."

"I'm curious too." Ying nodded in agreement.

"Right, right! I told you that you couldn't imagine it!" Little Paimon immediately perked up, "When I was chatting with Uncle Dvorak, I thought music was a good thing.

That’s the kind of melody we usually hear! It can soothe people’s moods, evoke good memories, and associate them with pleasant experiences…

I never thought music could be used for this kind of thing.”

"Music is neither good nor bad, it's just the user's psychology that affects the emotions conveyed by the music." Ying expressed his own thoughts and experiences.

Hearing this, little Paimon also thought in the same way: "Hmm, is that so? That makes sense... I feel like my understanding of music has taken a step closer!"

"In that case, little Paimeng should also go on stage to perform this time!" Ying lost no time in encouraging him.

"No way!" Little Paimon refused decisively, "Why don't you go on stage yourself?"

Ying thought about the scene of herself performing on the stage, and for some reason, she suddenly thought of the Pian Pian Flower. If she went on the stage, what if all the Liulilies in Liyue Harbor turned into Pian Pian Flowers... Saphir and Ping would kill her!

Shaking his head desperately, Ying quickly changed the subject: "Forget it, forget it, let's hurry back to Liyue Harbor, Baiwen and the reward are still waiting for us!"

This is a commission from the General Affairs Department, and the reward is very generous! Naturally, it cannot be missed.

The two hit it off immediately and returned to Liyue Harbor via the teleportation anchor point. As expected, Bai Wen was still waiting at the door of the General Affairs Department.

Little Paimon flew over immediately: "Bai Wen! We are back, and everything has been done."

"Okay!" Bai Wen was very happy to hear that the matter was over. "Please wait for a moment, both of you. Lady Ningguang has told me to report to her when you arrive. She probably has something to discuss with you personally."

After saying this, she didn't wait for Ying and Paimeng to reply and immediately ran away without stopping. She wanted to call Ningguang.

Ying and little Paimeng had no choice but to stay where they were and wait for Baiwen and Ningguang to come.

Fortunately, Ningguang has been working in the General Affairs Department in recent days and has not been to the Qun Yu Pavilion, otherwise the round trip would have delayed her for a long time.

After a while, Ningguang came walking towards us in her high heels. Her hard heels tapped the ground, making crisp footsteps. One could tell it was Ningguang coming.

Ningguang came to Ying's side and said with a smile: "Long time no see, both of you."

"Hey, we are all old acquaintances. Miss Ningguang should still be busy with the Lantern Festival. You don't have to be polite with us." Little Paimeng was good at getting close to people, and he brought the two sides closer with just one sentence.

Ningguang smiled knowingly at the smooth-talking little fellow: "Since we are acquaintances, there is no reason for me to neglect you. I should invite you two to come in for a cup of tea and rest for a while..."

Ying felt that she was being respected greatly. This was Tianquan Star! Unlike Saphir, the heartless man, who always treated her like a slave. There was no comparison, absolutely no comparison.

"But, as you said, even if we put aside other trivial matters, we still have a grand performance ahead of us. After the performance, we have to invite Rainbow Tour to discuss future cooperation opportunities. In addition, the investment ratio also needs to be determined after detailed discussions.

There is always something to do." Ningguang had a regretful expression on her face, as if she really regretted not having time to drink tea with Ying.

Little Paimeng was surprised at Ningguang's foresight: "Are you... already planning for the future?"

Hearing Paimeng's sigh, Ningguang smiled helplessly and changed the subject: "Then let's talk about the present. When you came here, did you see the bright lanterns set up at the port this year?"

"That looks like a wild goose? Which immortal is it based on?" Little Paimeng was indeed very curious about this.

She had celebrated the Sea Lantern Festival three times, the first was Guizhong and the second was Fujin, but she couldn't recognize who it was this time.

Ningguang solemnly said the name of the immortal: "Minghai Qixia Zhenjun, you should know this name."
