The Coming Heroine: The Only Princess - Chapter 231

Chapter 231 The Enemy Appeared
With the enemy close to her, Zhang Yunyan became more furious and her desire for revenge was more urgent. Her wide-open eyes were flashing with hatred. She was so desperate to destroy Living Yama and the “hell” in an instant, and perish the Yan Mansion.

Yunyan glared at the enemy’s home—the evil—Yan Mansion. Her heart was full of the oath of revenge: “Revenge! Revenge! Revenge…”

This oath was everywhere at any time, and it was impacting the body and mind of the goddess, arousing her strong will to fight and giving her infinite power.

The heroine was angrier and more furious. She was determined to destroy the horrible “hell” and Living Yama.

Zhang Yunyan came to the door of the courtyard. When she found that the door was locked, she was surprised.

She was suspicious. Why wasn’t Living Yama here? Was this an illusion or was it a delusion set by the enemy to make others believe that he was not here?

Anyway, the angry heroine would not give up easily. She must find out the truth and not let the enemy get away.

She jumped in and went straight to the door. The door on the first floor was also locked. Frowning, she sighed. It seemed that her enemy was really not here.

Zhang Yunyan did not give up, and she listened carefully. The house was quiet, which made her more anxious.

She saw that it was still raining. Looked at the dark courtyard, she did not want to leave like that. She was determined to figure out the answer, and she broke through the window.

In the white light of the lightning, Yunyan saw the niche at the corner. The spirit tablet was still there, and the incense was still burning with continuous smoke.

Zhang Yunyan clearly remembered that the inscription on the tablet was “Jiuyou Sage”.

Last time, Yan Xiaopeng had made himself clear that he and Jiuyou Sage and the Four King Ghosts were good friends. It seemed that this spiritual tablet was set up for the old devil.

Yunyan looked at the spiritual tablet and was very angry. She still found it unbelievable that the Yan Family would be in league with the devils.

With the help of Jiuyou Sage and the Four King Ghosts, the bully was more unscrupulous. He bullied others as if it was just a game. Such a man must be destroyed so that she could avenge herself and help the citizens get rid of the trouble.

Jiuyou Sage and the Four King Ghosts had been buried in the Qinglong Mountain. Zhang Yunyan still felt afraid when she thought of the experience in the Devil’s Cave. Yan Xiaopeng had hurt many families, and at this time, he was even in league with the devils. He deserved to be killed, otherwise the people would suffer.

Yunyan snorted. This tablet could not be here, and it should disappear from the world with Jiuyou Sage. With anger, she cut the tablet into pieces and threw them in the rain.

Zhang Yunyan looked at the house by the light of the lightning. It was no different from what it was half a month ago. Then, clutching the Magical Dragon Sword, she went straight to the second floor to search.

The thunder broke out with the flash of lightning, and everything upstairs showed its shape. It looked like the same old place. The quilt in the bed folded together and touched, so, there was no one living here.

Yunyan sighed, and felt a little disappointed. Since Yan Xiaopeng was not here, had he run away from home?

She was very puzzled. The doors of the courtyard and the room were locked, but inside, the incense was still burning. It seemed impossible that there was no one here. What happened?

Zhang Yunyan was prepared to come here, but she found nothing, which was not a good sign. It seemed that this time, things would not go well as she expected.

At a loss, she felt anxious and disheartened, wondering whether she would come home empty-handed or get caught in danger tonight.

This time, Zhang Yunyan came to the house of her enemy with the confidence to win, but she didn’t know where Living Yama went. It was surprising.

She was very anxious and depressed. If the man was not in the Yan Mansion, where should she look for him?

Yunyan sighed silently. It was not easy to complete the oath of revenge. It seemed that this might take some time.

Zhang Yunyan did not know whether Living Yama had been out or he was hiding somewhere in the Yan Mansion. It was not easy to find him, and she was worried whether she could take her revenge.

Despite her despair, she was still determined to avenge r herself and would not give up. Since she came to the Yan Mansion, she would not leave soon. She must make a thorough investigation and find out the enemy’s whereabouts.

Zhang Yunyan did not delay, and immediately rushed outside and jumped out the wall against the rain. She had only one goal in her min which was to find Living Yama as soon as possible so that she could avenge her parents.

In the storm, Zhang Yunyan’s bun had become loose, her long wet hair fell on to the shoulders, and the rain-soaked clothes were tightly wrapped around her body, which showed her anger and hatred.

The dauntless goddess was running around constantly. She was aggressive and unstoppable.

She searched several courtyards and these places were not Yan Xiaopeng’s residence. She felt more anxious.

In the terrible darkness, the wind was howling, the rain was pouring, the thunder was rumbling, and the lightning was tearing the darkness.

This evil house was like a pedant crouching there and was venting its endless evilness and ferocity…

Zhang Yunyan frowned and was anxious. She braved the storm and was looking around while walking, not knowing whether Living Yama was still in the evil house.

She was praying silently that she would succeed tonight in fulfilling her long-cherished wish of revenge.

Suddenly, here came a voice which was torn by the wind and rain. It sounded intermittent and unclear.

Zhang Yunyan heard that and hurried to follow the scattered sound, hoping to ask the speaker where Yan Xiaopeng was. She must act quietly, not wanting and daring to disturb the people in the Yan Mansion, because she was afraid that Living Yama might make preparations after knowing that or escape.

Yunyan followed the sound, and was rushing quickly in the heavy rain. Soon, she came to a courtyard.

She stopped outside the door, watching and ready to take actions.

In the lightning, Zhang Yunyan could saw it clearly. This was a small courtyard with only a two-story building. The style was very plain and old with black bricks.

The little building had only two small windows, each one on each floor. It looked more like a warehouse than a house for living. This “warehouse” was not a grand, but was very firm.

At this time, the gate of the courtyard had been opened, and it was creaking in and shaking by the howling wind. The voice came from the courtyard.

In the lightning, Zhang Yunyan looked through the opened door of the courtyard. There was a middle-aged man in a long gown in front of the house, holding an umbrella.

The man, frowning, was looking at the endless heavy rain and talking loudly to a man in the room.

In the dazzling lightning, Zhang Yunyan recognized that this person was the housekeeper of the Yan Mansion. On the stormy night of the last revenge, it was this man who had informed Living Yama of his search and she was able to confirm the enemy’s residence.

Unexpectedly, at the rainy night, the housekeeper came here again. There must be an important matter that he needed to inform the master.

It was obvious that Yan Xiaopeng lived in this small building. Otherwise, the butler would not have come here against the heavy rain to report the urgent matter.

It was coincident that when Zhang Yunyan was looking for her enemy hopelessly, the butler came again as her “guide”. It was surprising and incredible.

With her prey in front of her eyes, Yunyan felt happy secretly, and the heart that was hanging finally fell to the ground. It seemed that this time, her revenge would go smooth. The rage of hatred she had been repressing more than ten years was burning, and she was eager to kill the man in the house immediately.

Zhang Yunyan looked around and found that she had passed by here twice, but she hadn’t noticed this place.

It was understandable. As the host of the Yan Mansion, he should have lived in this house which was as old as a warehouse. It was surprising.

She understood that the old thief moved to this “warehouse” to hide in case of accidents–to be exact, in case of Zhang Yunyan came here again.

Yunyan gritted her teeth, and snorted angrily. The fire of hatred was burning in her heart, and she also felt it was beneath her dignity. The man wanted to hide here to save his life, but it was his wishful thinking. He just changed another place to bury himself.

As she calmed down, Zhang Yunyan was hopeful. Although Yan Xiaopeng was alive, she already had his life in her hand, and he would be killed by her sword.

She leaned over quietly and listened carefully to the conversation between the master and the servant, hoping to get some useful information.

The butler said, “Sir, I saw the governor, the governor asked me to send his greetings.”

The man in the house replied, “Good. He has affection and faith!”

“Yes, Sir, the relationship between you and him is not ordinary, and no one can compare to you.” The butler shook his head, and muttered to himself again, “Well, the governor wants just your money. For wealth, he won’t be an unkind man.”

Zhang Yunyan heard a familiar voice coming from the house, and she was more determined that the man was Yan Xiaopeng. Her pretty face was flashed with anger. She swore secretly, and was confident enough to wait for later action.

Yunyan did not rush in, because she was worried that the butler’s shout would startle Yan Xiaopeng and gave her enemy the opportunity to defend or escape. She was like a tiger, ready to pounce on her enemy and take his life.

At this time, Yan Xiaopeng’s words came from the small building, “Have you asked the governor? Is there any news of Zhang Yunyan?”

There was eagerness in the voice, as well as an urgency and anxiety. He was anxious to hear the result of his arrest.

The butler quickly replied, “Sir, I asked him. There is no news, and the governor is also very worried. Unexpectedly, we have chased her for so long, and we still know nothing of her trace and don’t know where she is hiding.”

There was a sigh in the house, “Alas, it seems that we cannot find her for the time being. As long as she is still alive, it is worrying…”

The butler comforted him, “Sir, you may rest assured. She nearly died last time, and was so scared to escape, how dare she go to the Yan Mansion and make chaos. She would be courting death.”

Yan Xiaopeng did not see it that way. At the thought of Zhang Yunyan, he was scared and restless. He knew it very well that there was a vendetta between Zhang Yunyan and the Yan Family, and she would not give up. Sooner or later, she would come to the Yan Mansion to kill him, and he had to guard against her.
