53 Mood Swing
Ely and her three disciples carried out a flawless kidnapping of suspicious people from various factions who were sent to spy on them or cause them harm.
Yuuki was the damage dealer, while Ely and her three disciples were the support. Their actions managed to take down nearly 200 experts without causing any commotion.
The ones with malice received a lot of beating, and those who came with suspicious intentions got a bit of leniency but were still beaten black and blue. Either way, Ely's disciples looted their hostage possessions for safekeeping.
"As expected by master. The troublemakers only dare to move at night. They were like rats that had voluntarily walked into a trap. Those who come during the day are just small fries." Jophiel was amazed by her master.
"We have arrested 198 people from eighteen different factions. I'm sure their respective forces are panicking and suspicious of each other." Remiel covered her mouth as she almost couldn't contain her laughter.
"Fufu, it's all thanks to our master's profound plan. The wind spirit also plays an important role in ensuring our camouflage." Uriel put the MVP to the wind spirit, but the one she mentioned was nowhere to be seen.
"Uh, but Elder Yuuki sure is amazing. She is a 10th Rank expert for a reason." Jophiel still remembered how Yuuki froze many experts easily. Even a Demi-God couldn't stand that extreme ice.
"Mm, our master has a lot of good allies and friends too. We've only met one, but what about the others?" Remiel asked in wonder. "Our master is in mysterious conditions and circumstances. She was missing in action five years ago, and her friends have been looking for her until now. What actually happened to our master before we encountered her?" Uriel became very curious about her master's background and story. Yet, she couldn't interpret many things since her master never discussed them.
In these three years, her master imparted considerable knowledge beyond mortal comprehension. It was very useful foreign world knowledge, but it proved that her master was not from this world, and it was probably the upper realm.
"Yeah, it would be great if our master told us a bit about her story too." Remiel's wolf ears went limp as she was feeling a bit depressed.
*Whamp*
Jophiel gave a head chop to Remiel. "Don't say it like that. Our master will tell us when it's necessary. Our master is also our mama. She is so good and kind to us. We are still too weak and unprepared to know more about divine secrets. The time just hasn't come yet."

"Mm, Jophi has a point. Anyway, the auction will start this afternoon. I don't think those troublemakers will take action soon, but let's see how they dance on our master's palm." Uriel covered her mouth as she couldn't help but grin.
"Yeah, they thought everything was within their palm, but we've jeopardized their plan. Hopefully, they've started attacking each other because of their prejudice and hostility." Jophiel grinned slyly.
"Uuu..." Remiel didn't understand what her sisters were talking about, but her master was the best of the best.
It was just that her master hadn't woken up yet. Yuuki was also still lying on the bed, sending and receiving some ice birds that frequently came in and out of the room.
"Hmm..." Yuuki retracted back her spy ice birds.
The plan of pitting the enemies against one another effectively took effect in the last two days. Those evil factions glared at the other forces with suspicion and prejudice.
Those people thought the missing spies were the opposing party's doing.
Everything was still going according to Ely's prediction. So, for the time being, they would be safe. No one would dare make any big moves directly at them.
However, she could tell a bigger mess would occur during or after the auction. She was sure Ely had predicted it.
An S Rank alchemist, healer, and doctor... Ely took on those glorified non-combat roles because Ely would appear as an extremely precious asset that many forces would fight over.
There were several taboos in the cultivation world, and some of them could even make the offender an enemy of the world.
All factions would want to take Ely's good side the moment that was revealed. After all, those cultivators and mages obviously need high- grade pills, potions, or elixirs to solve their problems. Moreover, the doctor...
The S Rank alchemists in this Terra World could be counted on one hand, and the interests and honors of such a talent would obviously be protected by countless forces.
So, at the end of the day, most likely, the Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace and Tiangong Sacred Land could only swallow their grievances back.
"Fufu~" Yuuki couldn't help but chuckle.
"Uh-uuh..." Ely got up while holding her tummy as she felt unwell.
"Ely, are you okay? Your face is a bit pale." Yuuki rushed to Ely's side to check on Ely's condition.
"It's okay, Yuuki. That's just my monthly mood swing. Is it because I haven't slept enough the last two days? Today isn't good." Ely held her head.
She felt her strange monthly phenomenon shouldn't be happening right now, but it did.
"Ugh, it's already ten o'clock? You haven't had breakfast yet, have you? We should order some breakfast first. The auction will start in four hours. We need to get ready quickly." Ely went to the bathroom to wash her face.
Jophiel immediately caught up with her master in case her presence was needed. Her master was not feeling well, and that made her anxious.
"Tell me the truth, Ely. I can see the spiritual energy in your body is a bit chaotic. The so-called mood swing is a result, not a cause! Yuuki sent a telepathy direct to Ely's mind as she felt something was wrong.
"I don't know either, Yuuki. It's been a monthly mood swing for years already. The result may vary and be random. Do you know anything about these weird symptoms?" Ely peeked out of the bathroom.the s0urce 0f n0velfuIIbo0k.com She didn't carry a telepathy talisman, so she answered directly with her mouth.
"Well, I will find out soon. Stay close to me for this entire day. Today will not be peaceful." Yuuki nodded her head. Ely was also unsure of the reason, and she had to figure it out herself.
Ely was not a complete human being, so finding the bottom of Ely's monthly strange mood swing was difficult. Even so, Yuuki would still try and observe Ely closely.
Jophiel was also clueless. She was sensitive and keen but also didn't understand the cause of her master's monthly mood wing. She found no significant difference from her master's normal day. It was just that her master's emotions could change so easily on the mood swing day.
On that day, her master usually did fun things to improve the mood and remained in the humble abode for the whole day.
However, they were currently in the middle of a troublesome event. So, she was worried that some troublemakers would trigger something they shouldn't have done.
The world would cease to exist if her master was truly angry and accidentally destroyed it!
Jophiel had an unusually wild thought as she assisted her master back into bed. She massaged her master's arms while occasionally acting cute to entertain her master.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Phew, my mood improved greatly, thanks to you all." Ely was in a good mood. She praised her three disciples with appreciation.
"Don't mention it, master. Bad mood's best friend is always sweets!" Jophiel devoured her shortcake with a sweet smile on her face.
Uriel and Remiel nodded in agreement. The second best who understood their master's feelings and needs was Jophiel.
After lunch snack, Ely and her group left the hotel. Some crude spies were seen stalking them, but Ely ignored them because her mood was similar to sunny weather.
"Halt! We-"
*Bam* *Slash* *Whack*
Three big guys confronted Ely's group, but Uriel got rid of them before those bad guys spoke any more nonsense. She was afraid that their master's mood would be ruined.
"Don't bother us, thugs." Uriel snorted sarcastically and threw those thugs into the trash bin. She quickly returned to her master's side.
"What's wrong with those people?" Ely glanced back, but Yuuki pulled her hand so she would continue walking forward.
"Those insignificant plebs worth no attention, master. They deserve to receive a few beatings and be arrested by the city guard." Uriel nodded in confirmation, but the so-called thugs could no longer be seen.
"Good job, Uri-chan~" Jophiel gave a thumbs up.
Ely's group then boarded the giant beast transportation to the auction house. It only took a few minutes, and the people were already bustling there.
More than four hundred people didn't get an entry ticket. However, they didn't give up easily because they might still have another chance even if they couldn't become the bidders.
".." Yuuki spoke nothing, but she had prepared dozens of countermeasures. She was the first one to get off the palanquin and offered her hand to help Ely get down.
"Thank you." Ely appreciated Yuuki's consideration.
The rumored legendary nine-tailed fox sisters soon caught everyone's attention. The fox sisters' breathtaking appearances caused almost everyone to take a moment to appreciate such a gorgeous sight.
