Chapter 686B – ‘Great Person’
Elder Liu Zang and Grandmaster Qi had increasingly ugly complexions, but they didn’t speak. This boy was clearly not some minor character if Sky Declaring Pavilion was able to make such concessions. They didn’t want to create a personal enemy here.
But if they let go of the Mu Family uncle and niece like this, they wouldn’t have any face left. At the very least they needed to look for an appropriate reason.
In the awkward silence, Mu Xuan coughed after she tumbled down from the box. Her eyes slowly opened. After a brief bout of dizziness, she saw her uncle who was being held as well as Qin Yu standing out from the crowd.
Mu Xuan was stunned. She bit her lips and slowly lowered her head.
But this second of pause was enough for others to see. Grandmaster Qi’s eyes brightened and he stared at Qin Yu. “Fellow daoist, do you recognize this woman?”
Qin Yu’s lips curled up as if he were smiling and also not smiling. He looked at Qi Yunshan, his expression light, “I know that you have an intense thought in your heart that is causing you to suffer inside, and you fervently desire to know the answer. Then, I will satisfy your curiosity. That’s right, the bracelet you are searching for is with me.”
Feng Qing’s eyes widened and she was increasingly sure of her guess. This seemingly ordinary black-robed youth had to be some fathomless existence.
Otherwise, how would he dare to recklessly provoke Qi Yunshan while he was in such a sensitive and easily agitated state?
Qi Yunshan’s eyes brightened and his face flushed red with excitement. He fixed his eyes on Qin Yu, his voice hoa.r.s.e as he said, “Are you speaking the truth?”
Qin Yu nodded, “Of course.”
Taking a deep breath, Qi Yunshan cupped his hands together and said, “Fellow daoist, my name is Qi Yunshan and I have some minor achievements in the path of alchemy. If I unintentionally offended you today, I ask you to not blame me.
“That bracelet is an ancestral item of my Qi Family and is extremely important to our future generations. If fellow daoist is willing to return it, I will pay any price necessary. Moreover, from here on out, fellow daoist will be my good friend and the most honored guest of my Qi Family.”
He didn’t even mention Mu Tong or Mu Xuan. After determining the whereabouts of the bracelet, they didn’t have the qualifications for him to pay attention to them. Whether they lived or died, none of that mattered to him anymore.
“Although I have no idea whether your words are true or false, your offer is indeed sincere. Unfortunately, I am also interested in this bracelet and I have no intention of getting rid of it.” Qin Yu lightly said, “So, I must refuse.”
Hiss –
Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air as their eyes widened and their faces filled with disbelief. This was simply completely disregarding the honor of an alchemy grandmaster, an action that was not much different from a loud slap to the face. Did this person really not fear thoroughly angering Grandmaster Qi?
Qi Yunshan barely held back his anger. “Fellow daoist really doesn’t plan on considering this any further?”
Qin Yu pointed a finger. “I will only say this. Let go of the Mu Family uncle and his niece and do not disturb them any more after this. If you do that, I won’t pursue this matter any further.”
Big Pig’s field of vision flashed black. Big brother, if you were fine and totally healed then killing him would be as simple as crus.h.i.+ng an ant. But right now you are nothing more than a paper tiger! If you play around too much you might play yourself into an early grave!
But with things having reached this point, Qin Yu knew that he could only continue to the very end. If he revealed even the slightest trace of weakness, he would immediately be seen through.
“Good! Very good!” Qi Yunshan’s complexion clouded over. “I have no idea where you came from or who you are, but since you chose to make me your enemy, I will not take a single step backwards nor will I make any concessions towards you…hand over the bracelet, otherwise don’t blame me for being impolite!”
Bang –
A powerful aura erupted from his body!
Qin Yu’s pupils shrank a little and he revealed a cold expression. He exuded the dignity of a superior being, like a G.o.d looking down upon all from the highest heavens.
“Grandmaster Qi!” Feng Qing suddenly shouted out, “I’ve already said that I hope you two can restrain yourself and not come into conflict within Sky Declaring Pavilion! Please understand!”
Qi Yunshan was without expression. “Alright, then I will go…” Before his voice fell, he lifted a hand and a shadow flew out, exploding forward like an arrow.
In a flash, this shadow arrived in front of Qin Yu. It opened its mouth and revealed sharp teeth that ruthlessly bit down at him. A fierce and crazy light s.h.i.+ned in Qi Yunshan’s cruel eyes.
If he could obtain the Chain of Stars, his alchemy strength would rise by an entire level, allowing him to become a genuine alchemy grandmaster in the truest sense of the word.
At that time, even Great Dao realm existences would have to give him sufficient respect. For this reason he was even willing to provoke formidable enemies!
A true alchemy grandmaster could erupt with a strength that could suppress a powerful sect, even an ancient inheritance clan! Thus, Qi Yunshan chose the perfect opportunity to attack without hesitation.
But the plot didn’t proceed in the direction he expected it to. When that terrifyingly fast shadow bit down through Qin Yu’s skin, it seemed to be struck by thunder and had its acupuncture points pressed. It froze where it was.
The shadow felt a terrifying suppression that came from the bloodline level, making it feel as if it faced its invincible natural enemy. Fear gushed out from deep in its soul, thoroughly submerging its consciousness. All that remained was a trembling fear and abject despair.
“Dragon blood monster spirit!”
There was a sudden cry of alarm. Everyone looked at the gray phantom that was biting down on Qin Yu’s neck, its snake-like body covered in dragon scales, and their faces paled. When they looked at Qin Yu again, it was like they were witnessing an unimaginable miracle, their eyes full of awe.
A cold sweat appeared on Qin Yu’s back. He had no idea what a dragon blood monster spirit was, but he had undoubtedly made a round trip to death’s door just now. Luckily, this thing seemed to have an extreme fear towards the Ancient race. After touching his blood it was directly suppressed.
He silently vowed to himself that he would never do something so dangerous again. The sense of powerlessness he felt when on the verge of death was something truly disgusting.
But on the surface, Qin Yu’s expression didn’t change. He calmly lifted a hand and took down the ‘dragon blood monster spirit’ that was biting his neck. With a temperate look he said, “What a naughty little fellow. It’s good that you stopped fast enough, otherwise you would have died by now.
“I don’t blame you because this wasn’t your original intent. But those that offended me shall never be allowed!” Qin Yu looked up, his pitch black eyes locking onto Qi Yunshan. The iciness in them seemed capable of freezing everything, extinguis.h.i.+ng all things in the world.
Bang –
A terrifying aura, like a great beast awakening from slumber or a thousand volcanoes blowing up at once, erupted from his body. As if he looked down upon the world with disdain, as if he could step on a trillion stars beneath his foot.
The air turned thick and viscous. It submerged everyone like an invisible swamp. The suppression was so terrifying that even breathing was impossible.
Buzz –
Buzz –
Sky Declaring Pavilion’s defensive array formation immediately activated beneath this impact. A radiant divine light s.h.i.+ned with a cold brilliance. But at this time it could only shrink, not daring to approach Qin Yu in the least.
Because at this moment, the strength of the entire array formation was suppressed!
Qin Yu stared at Qi Yunshan, his voice seeming to come from the depths of h.e.l.l. “Tell me. How do you want to die?”
The world fell deathly silent!
Countless people fell to the ground. It was like an invisible hand clutched at their hearts. Fear and horror tumbled in their eyes.
“Peak of the Calamity Immortal realm…no, this can compare even with the Great Dao realm!” Feng Qing screamed out in her mind, her complexion paling. She had once come into contact with this kind of existence that neared the summit of this world, thus she knew how terrifying they were.
They could summon wind and rain with a flip of their hands; they could erase a trillion lives with nothing but a thought!
Qi Yunshan felt as if he had fallen into an icy cave. His entire body froze and he couldn’t even think straight. But, he now knew what sort of existence he had offended.
Great Dao realm…it was actually the Great Dao realm…
It was over, it was all over!
Perhaps even the entire Qi Family would be implicated by him and suffer total annihilation!
“Great Dao realm!” A deep voice suddenly rang out. Ripples spread in the imprisoned s.p.a.ce and a white-haired old man appeared. As he arrived, Sky Declaring Pavilion’s suppressed array formation erupted with an even more formidable aura, instantly locking onto Qin Yu.
“Just who are you? You had best give me a satisfactory answer, otherwise with your initial Great Dao realm cultivation, you still don’t have the qualifications to be so insolent in Sky Declaring Pavilion!”
