Chapter 1256B – Sin
…
Zhang Zhongs.h.i.+ paled.
The cultivators beside him weren’t idiots. When they saw this their hearts shrank and they almost cursed out loud.
You surname Zhang b.a.s.t.a.r.d, we trusted you so much, but now that things have come this far you’ve actually failed!?
You sc.u.mbag, it’s true that mud really can’t stick to walls! It’s no wonder that even though you’ve been beaten by the Peach Garden several times throughout the years, you’ve never managed to avenge your wife and children!
But anger was just anger. Right now, they were all gra.s.shoppers on the same rope. Forget everything else, they had to hurry and figure out a way to fix this.
However, before the others could suppress their anger and do anything, Qin Yu suddenly turned his head from within the array formation and smiled at them.
This smile was pale and faint, but when it fell into their eyes, it caused their breath to catch in their throats. This was because the raging anger in their hearts suddenly came to a halting screech.
Their first thought was…this boy could see them.
Then…this was bad. The problem must be originating from them!
Shua –
All eyes locked onto Flatrock and Dragon Peak. This boy was from a declining family and was the best choice to be their scapegoat?
s.h.i.+t! What did you sell us!?
You two b.a.s.t.a.r.ds, since when did you become blind?
After sending White Phoenix flying back with a punch, the array spirit’s wild and crazy momentum suddenly vanished. That’s right, like a shadow, or perhaps a bubble, it vanished without warning, disappearing from everyone’s sight.
Then, the array formation broke.
An array spirit was condensed from an array formation and was the fountainhead of its power. Currently, the array spirit had gathered almost all of the strength of the array formation. As the array spirit vanished, the array formation burnt out and disappeared.
White Phoenix was stunned. He watched as the s.p.a.ce in front of him twisted and Qin Yu stepped out. Qin Yu cupped his hands together and said, “Fellow daoist White Phoenix, I am old acquaintances with the Peach Garden, so I came here to save you.”
The Spring Master’s camouflage skills were indeed formidable, but at such a close distance, it was impossible to conceal the truth from a fellow Peach Garden disciple. White Phoenix’s eyes widened as he saw Qin Yu blink at him a few times.
White Phoenix swallowed back down the words he was about to say. He looked at Qin Yu, his feelings complex.
To be honest, when he first heard that junior-apprentice sister Peachy was going to be together with him, he really wanted to tear Qin Yu to shreds.
In order to not lose face, or maybe to prevent himself from being impulsive and doing things that he would regret later, White Phoenix chose to go into seclusion as a form of self-imprisonment.
After leaving seclusion, he followed his elder senior-apprentice brother and junior-apprentice sister to come to the Lost Garden. Yet he never thought that he would be saved by Qin Yu here.
Although the array spirit had vanished abruptly and the reason wasn’t clear, it was surely related to the sudden appearance of Qin Yu.
He hadn’t yet figured out how he should face Qin Yu in the future, but now he owed him a life-saving grace.
This was his sin to bear!
This caused White Phoenix’s thoughts to roll around in his mind until he eventually fell silent.
Qin Yu’s eyes flashed. He lightly coughed and said, “I have deep origins with the Peach Garden, so it is my duty to provide help when possible. Mister White Phoenix need not mind it.”
In short, it is my duty to save you, so senior-apprentice brother, please don’t feel pressured.
But then again, saying such things at such a time…cough cough, no matter who listened to this, there was a feeling of it being an intentional reminder.
Of course, Qin Yu would never acknowledge this!
This was the third seat White Phoenix! In the Peach Garden he was his senior-apprentice brother and his strength was also tyrannical. If he bore a grudge due to Peachy, then Qin Yu was bound to experience trouble in the future.
And most importantly, there was no real and tangible relations.h.i.+p between him and Peachy at all. He absolutely could not eat this loss!
So, when Qin Yu said all these words, he didn’t feel any burden in his heart. It was because you didn’t understand the truth and misunderstood everything, so you have to bear the consequences yourself.
Sure enough, after hearing this White Phoenix took a deep breath, cupped his hands together, and bowed. “Disciples of the Peach Garden are clear about our grat.i.tude and grudges. I, White Phoenix, will remember the graciousness of today!”
Qin Yu waved his hand as if he didn’t care, but he felt relieved inside. With these words, he wouldn’t need to worry in the future.
White Phoenix was a proud person. He would never do something shameful that would slap himself on the face.
He didn’t need to guess to know that this third senior-apprentice brother wasn’t feeling good right now. Since he got what he wanted, he should help him hurry to vent this anger.
Qin Yu turned and pointed a finger, “Mister White Phoenix, those are the people that tried to kill you!” Without saying anything, White Phoenix clenched his teeth and ran over.
One had to admit that cultivators within the Saint circles had numerous methods. In particular, after they determined that if they couldn’t kill White Phoenix today, no one would have a good end.
They couldn’t flee. Even if they managed to escape, would the Peach Garden let them go? That was far too naïve! Rather than living in fear and horror in the future, even taking the initiative to apologize to the Peach Garden and being punished, it was better to fight. Maybe they would get lucky and kill White Phoenix!
No matter how strong you are, you are just one person. Even if we are weaker, we have numbers!
The slaughter entered a superheated phase from the start!
White Phoenix revealed his true form, transforming into a giant ice phoenix that looked down at everyone with disdain. With one breath he froze a person to death, and with another breath he blasted someone else to pieces. Qin Yu praised his actions.
This little trick was really good. Maybe in the future, he would be frozen into ice cubes with one breath.
As Qin Yu was appreciating White Phoenix’s all-out slaughter, some people turned and glared at him with hate in their eyes.
It was obvious that the reason their perfect plan failed in the end and they all ended up in such dire straits was because of this b.a.s.t.a.r.d.
Whether they killed White Phoenix or not, Qin Yu had to die!
“Kill him!”
“Tear him to shreds!”
“Turn his bones to ashes!”
Their voices were filled with hatred.
Facing these people, Qin Yu became more and more certain that besides some trump cards, there was still a ma.s.sive gap in strength between him and senior-apprentice brother White Phoenix.
But protecting himself wasn’t particularly difficult at least. Even if he didn’t use the power of his Light and Dark Body, or the power of s.p.a.ce and time, the increased strength of his True G.o.d’s Path was enough for him to deal with these cultivators that glared at him.
Of course, as he dealt with them, he put on a show that he was in ‘continuous danger’ where he could die at any time. After all, if it wasn’t for this act, how could he have caught these people to begin with?
Today, whether it was White Phoenix or Qin Yu, neither of them planned to let these people leave this place alive.
…
When it came to fis.h.i.+ng, as long as the fish were smart enough they would detect that something was wrong sooner or later. Not to mention that these cultivators were all from the Saint circles. Even if they were temporarily blinded by anger or hatred, they were still able to react quickly.
Their eyes were fierce and resentful but also showed a hint of fear and dread. After glaring at Qin Yu, the people who surrounded him turned and fled.
They couldn’t kill Qin Yu and couldn’t slay White Phoenix. Right now, over a third of the original group had died and the ones still alive were gasping for breath. Everyone knew that as their numbers fell, the rest would die faster and faster.
These people were from the Saint circles and also had the qualifications to enter the Lost Garden. Even if they couldn’t compare with peak Holy Lands, for better or worse they were highly regarded young talents. Although they understood the truth of their situation, none of them were willing to directly face death.
If so, they had to run!
If they survived today, they might have another chance to eliminate these people. As long as White Phoenix died and they weren’t seen by anyone….well, the chances of this weren’t too high. But even if they were hunted down by the Peach Garden, they could still struggle and wouldn’t necessarily die.
Alright, the chances of surviving weren’t too high, but at least they wouldn’t die today…if they were alive, anything was possible. But if they died, everything was for nothing.
Whether it was because they were hoping to be lucky or having a negative mentality, they decided to run away.
But when these people turned to escape, they discovered that the s.p.a.ce around them had quietly turned into a net, and they were all fish inside it.
As their hearts filled with rage and anger, they glared at Qin Yu. Qin Yu looked up with his completely unfamiliar face and brightly smiled, “When you deliver Buddha, you bring them all the way to the west. When you do things, you do them to the end. Mister White Phoenix’s anger still hasn’t fully abated, so please stay here and take it.”
Just what sort of nonsensical and impudent remark was this!?
It was clear that they had been fooled. This brat was actually an acting king!
“Kill him!”
They turned and flushed back with a roar. In truth, these people had already guessed that Qin Yu wasn’t easy to deal with. They had been able to deduce this from the moment the net had quietly formed around them.
But if they wanted to leave, they had no other choice. They had to kill him first.
Fierce combat erupted once again…this time, it really was fierce combat. Qin Yu had no choice but to be cautious.
The net of rules that covered the surrounding s.p.a.ce violently shook.
If he used the Light and Dark Body and combined that with the power of s.p.a.ce and time, it would be much easier to deal with them. But after seeing the top cultivators that had gathered at the Lost Garden, he absolutely did not want to expose himself.
Then he could only forcibly endure it.
Puff –
He spat out a mouthful of blood. Then, he turned and looked at senior-apprentice brother White Phoenix who was engaged in ma.s.s slaughter against all those around him. He sighed with emotion, praising himself for having the foresight of avoiding what could have been a ma.s.sive future problem.
The stone paG.o.da was excited. Although its main body was in the far-off dark regions, that didn’t stop it from sensing Qin Yu’s current situation.
It thought this was good. Surname Qin, you still have such a day! This was what happens to those who burn the bridge after crossing it and rampantly oppress and slander me! The thieving heavens must have finally grown afraid of me these past years after pus.h.i.+ng things too far, and decided to give me some compensation.
If it’s like this, then please have this compensation come even more violently! In any case, it was impossible for these people to kill Qin Yu.
During this time, the stone paG.o.da never knew that its current reactions were all being monitored by some insidious fellow.
