Chapter 1311 – Then Then Then
Qin Yu did not mind not being able to use the ident.i.ty of Bitter City anymore. There were so many individuals in the Red Peak Straits and changing ident.i.ties was a piece of cake.
However, if nothing went wrong, Black Turtle and Thousand Saint should have been able to guess his true ident.i.ty by now.
Qin Yu had used the innate spirit as a hint and it definitely raised suspicions. The Saint Slaying battle outside the Lost Garden had just ended. Although Qin Yu would not admit it without evidence, Saints were not dumb.
Furthermore, Black Turtle had a large knowledge repository.
The moment he laid eyes on Black Turtle, Qin Yu felt an energy from the innate spirit. He could be confident in what Cang Zhu said about Black Turtle coming from the Lost Garden. He must know about the existence of the innate spirit too.
However, that was fine. So what if he knew? At this point, was he afraid of Black Turtle going to the Peach Garden to seek trouble? Black Turtle and Thousand Saint would be preoccupied with trying to lure him out and steal the innate spirit strength for themselves.
Qin Yu altered his form into an ordinary Sea Clan member. He looked back at the Red Peak Strait cliff where the palace of Black Turtle was. A cold smile crossed his face and he opened his palm. A drop of fresh blood wrapped by an invisible force appeared.
The blood came from Black Turtle and he collected it after the punch landed. Trying to kill Black Turtle was truly the best way to save them.
However, the Dragon Saint had not been able to touch Black Turtle for so many years. Hence Qin Yu made another preparation. If he failed to kill Black Turtle, he would mess up the transformation plan.
Qin Yu comprehended the Light and Dark Body. Although he could not compare to a True Saint for the Darkness Great Dao, he could understand a few things.
Back in the prison, Qin Yu had not only deduced that Black Turtle wanted to use the siblings as a replacement medium for him. There were a few other theories he had that he needed to test.
It was about right.
A plan formed in the depths of Qin Yu’s heart. He carefully checked it a few times. There were risks, but they weren"t high. With the innate spirit strength in him, he could escape with his life even if things went wrong.
On the other hand, if things succeeded…hehe, the Saint Slayer name would be his to use.
However, the amount of blood in his hand was not enough for his perfect plan. There were other things he needed to prepare. Thousand Saint was also busy trying to find helpers in the World of Darkness. The plan was not complete yet and he had to be disturbed. He would need to act for the remaining half.
Qin Yu was not too familiar with the World of Darkness. The Spring Master had mentioned that it was full of mysterious individuals who could walk away from light and dark and not be affected by the will of the Vast Brightness World.
The last part of it was definitely a joke. How could anyone not be affected by the will of the Vast Brightness World? Would a lightning strike make you believe it? However, the World of Darkness was obviously very strong and there were at least three True Saints leading it.
He wondered how many True Saints Thousand Saint could call over…if there were too many of them, it would be tough and he might need the Dragon Saint’s help. He would take it as it was and not ponder too much over it now. A flash of light crossed Qin Yu’s eyes and he disappeared in an instant.
The aura from the darkness was thick. Especially before he withdrew his powers, it was a piece of cake for Qin Yu to find Thousand Saint.
This area was guarded very intensely and it was not an exaggeration to say that even a fly would not be able to get in.
After the a.s.sa.s.sination attempt on Black Turtle, Thousand Saint had learnt his lesson. He gave the orders that no one could enter without his permission. Furthermore, the darkness grew thicker and covered the entire building.
Taking out a guard was very easy, but to sneak through a True Saint’s constructed surveillance area was not that easy.
Even Qin Yu found it hard.
However, he very quickly found another chance. Thousand Saint had indeed tried to call forth other True Saints from the World of Darkness. Since that was the case…after Qin Yu exchanged places with the guard he took out, he slowly closed his eyes.
The s.p.a.ce within the building was large and there was a pool on the floor. Thousand Saint floated in the air. As he flew past the pool, ripples would form.
In the next instant, darkness rushed out and covered every corner of the pool. The water’s surface rushed away like a violent sea in a raging storm.
Soon, a large face appeared on the surface of the water. Because of the water ripples, the face was extremely distorted but there was a pair of eyes that seemed to have crossed through s.p.a.ce to directly arrive here.
“Thousand Saint, why have you called me?” A low voice came from the water and echoed through the palace.
Thousand Saint replied in a low voice, “Hundred, I would like to invite you to the Red Peak Straits to complete the transformation of Black Turtle with me.”
The face remained cold and he said, “I am not interested.”
With that, he immediately tried to cut off contact.
Thousand Saint was prepared for this and he calmly said, “This matter concerns Qin Yu of the Peach Garden.”
The face projection that was just about to disappear stopped. The deep voice rang, “Qin Yu?”
“Black Turtle personally guaranteed it. Our guess previously was right…” As he said this, Thousand Saint suddenly frowned. The ripples grew more violent and it felt like a live creature was about to squeeze out from within.
Then Thousand Saint felt a second wave of boundless dark aura. His first thought was: what a coincidence. He had called Hundred Saint, and another Darkness True Saint had sensed the communication.
If two Saints felt the communication link at the same time, it meant that they were close. It could also mean that both Saints knew each other and they might even be seated together now.
Therefore, despite the foreign aura, Thousand Saint thought that the other saint was Hundred Saint’s friend.
However, Hundred Saint saw Thousand Saint’s face and naturally thought that he had called other Darkness True Saints.
Although it was rare for anyone to call two Saints at the same time, Hundred Saint thought about what Thousand Saint said and sighed, “Thousand Saint, you have not finished!”
As expected, they knew each other. Otherwise, he would not easily inform others about this.
This was it!
Thousand Saint could not help being worried. Hundred Saint and the other Darkness True Saint had a good relations.h.i.+p. If the two came to the Red Peak Straits, he might end up with a smaller portion of the pie after everything was done.
However, things had boiled down to this and he had already said it. It was too late to regret. He confirmed, “That’s right, as you expected, Qin Yu has truly obtained the innate spirit strength. Black Turtle came from the Lost Garden and this information can be trusted! As such, I call forth you guys today to come to the Red Peak Straits to aid in the transformation for Black Turtle. We will combine forces to crush Qin Yu and obtain the strength of the innate spirit!”
He paused for a moment. Thousand Saint added, “After everything is settled, we will split the gains evenly. If the both of you are willing to swear before the darkness, that would be good. Otherwise, I have to invite other True Saints!”
Qin Yu overheard everything to this point and he suddenly changed his mind. He realized that both Thousand Saint and Hundred Saint…their names were similar. Anyway, these two Saints had not questioned his ident.i.ty. This was perfect!
It was his plan to use the darkness communication to scheme against Thousand Saint. This was fun and he wanted to pretend to be another True Saint.
Then then then…this was going to be spectacular.
“Good!” Qin Yu exclaimed.
Hundred Saint frowned slightly. This stranger had agreed too easily and it felt suspicious. However, there was nothing wrong with Thousand Saint’s suggestion and he did not have an opinion.
“Alright, I will hurry over.”
The shadow in the pool dissipated and the two Saints disappeared. Thousand Saint sighed and smiled.
Qin Yu, with three Darkness True Saints combining forces, this was a widespread net. Even if you have the innate spirit energy, you cannot run!
Mm…what if he left beforehand?
Thousand Saint’s expression stiffened and uneasiness filled his eyes. He now knew that Qin Yu had perfected a disguise technique. Even Black Turtle had been fooled.
If Qin Yu sensed something wrong and left the Red Peak Straits first, wouldn’t all his preparations be in vain?
Not only that, he had called forth two other Saints. Though he did not know about the other stranger, Hundred Saint was not someone who was easy to deal with.
No, he had to find a way to confirm that Qin Yu was still in the Red Peak Straits. He had to make sure Qin Yu would not leave.
A mistake, he made a mistake. He was too excited upon learning about the innate spirit and he had actually forgotten about this.
Although the chances of Qin Yu leaving were not large, Thousand Saint would not take the risk. There was only one chance and he had to perfect this.
What should he do?
……
Black Turtle smiled coldly, “Qin Yu will never leave the Red Peak Straits!”
Thousand Saint sighed in relief but he frowned, “Brother Turtle, how can you be so confident?”
Black Turtle hid within his sh.e.l.l. His voice was cold, “He wants to save someone.”
“Cang Zhu?” Thousand Saint’s eyes brightened.
Black Turtle said, “That’s right. Cang Zhu was willing to return to the East Sea back in the Lost Garden because she wanted to save Qin Yu. Now he is here to return the favor.
“The transformation has begun. Unless I die or someone cuts off the process, trying to forcefully take Cang Zhu away would kill her brother…Of course, Qin Yu sneaked an attack but did not kill me. He can only go through the second path."
Thousand Saint frowned. In the end, it was for a woman. This was not reliable. Even if Qin Yu and Cang Zhu had a relations.h.i.+p in the Lost Garden, he would not risk his life for her.
The a.s.sa.s.sination attempt failed. During the battle outside the Lost Garden, Qin Yu had shown his intelligence. He probably already guessed that his ident.i.ty had been discovered.
Furthermore, Qin Yu could have learned of Black Turtle’s ident.i.ty from Cang Zhu…this also meant that Qin Yu knew they were aware of the innate spirit.
This was hard to take, but it was the truth. Unless Qin Yu was dumb, he would leave the Red Peak Straits. This made Thousand Saint worry.
He felt that he had raised the bar too high. He had made a dumb move calling the other two Darkness True Saints.
Perhaps Qin Yu had already returned to the Peach Garden. After all, there was no need to put his own safety at risk for a mere woman.
