Chapter 119 Zhao Longhu Prepares for Death
Upon receiving this news, Qin Wu's expression turned excited.
He originally thought he was just accompanying Zhao Longhu to resolve the issue, but he didn't expect to gain this much.
Just then, the powerful figures from the Three Yin Sect's outpost rushed over from afar.
Everyone's faces were extremely gloomy, and their killing intent was almost tangible as they looked at Qin Wu.
"Who dares to cause trouble here, you little thief?"
Although they have only temporarily made this place their sect's base, it doesn't mean they will be bullied at will. The Three Yin Sect enjoys a prestigious reputation throughout Qianzhou.
Although the Three Yin Sect may not rank highly among the True Qi sects, it is still one of the most terrifying existences for the vast majority of people at the bottom of Qianzhou.
Even those sects specializing in true qi would not want to provoke them under normal circumstances.
So when they saw Qin Wu coming to provoke them, everyone was naturally furious.
Looking at the people in front of him, Qin Wu remained calm, but the corpses on the ground made his calmness seem somewhat eerie.
However, the disciples of the Three Yin Sect did not hesitate at all. They all drew their weapons and surrounded Qin Wu and his group.
"No matter who you are, since you dare to cause trouble here, you only have one way out: death."
A disciple of the Three Yin Sect spoke coldly.
Then Qin Wu's voice rang out: "Is that so? I'd like to see just what your Three Yin Sect is capable of. I've come here today to kill."
After saying this, the expressions of the Three Yin Sect members changed drastically. Their faces turned extremely ugly, and their eyes flashed with murderous intent. Without any hesitation, they all rushed towards Qin Wu.
Although they are a demonic sect, the Three Yin Sect has its own pride and naturally will not allow anyone to provoke them. Qin Wu's actions are a blatant provocation, which no one can tolerate.
Seeing so many people rushing over, the few who had just told Qin Wu about the Tong Sheng Fruit looked on with barely suppressed fear. But in the next instant, they noticed a change in Qin Wu's aura.
When Qin Wu attacked earlier, although he appeared extremely fierce, they considered him strong, but within their comprehension. However, at this moment, they found that the aura emanating from the person before them had become like an abyss, completely unfathomable to them.
The group exchanged glances, their eyes filled with shock.
At that very moment, Qin Wu finally moved. The Tiger Fiend Technique was activated instantly, and at the same time, he transformed his Unyielding Vajra Body and Tiger King Blade into the most lethal killing tools.
"Those who belong to the Demonic Sect deserve no pity in death."
As Qin Wu uttered these eight words.
He transformed into a bolt of lightning, charging forward with his Tiger King Blade drawn. In an instant, he cleaved one of the disciples in two, blood splattering across the sky. This gave the Three Yin Sect disciples a powerful warning, leaving them momentarily stunned. But while they were stunned, Qin Wu remained unfazed.
Qin Wu's Tiger King Blade was like a scythe of death, ruthlessly reaping the lives of his enemies. Although there were dozens of Three Yin Sect disciples charging towards him, none could withstand Qin Wu's blade head-on.
This place had become a massive slaughterhouse. Meanwhile, Zhao Longhu had already made his way deep into the Three Yin Sect's territory.
The further he went, the more complicated his feelings became, because he knew very well what he would face on this journey.
Although he hadn't known Liu Yan'er for long, he had devoted his whole heart to her.
However, Liu Yan'er was not like him; in the end, she even led him into a deadly trap.
If it weren't for Qin Wu, he would have been dead today and would never have appeared on Qiongzhou Island.
Even so, he still wanted to find Liu Yan'er to demand an explanation. At this moment, Liu Yan'er was completely unaware of all this. She had heard the commotion ahead and knew that someone was causing trouble at the Three Yin Sect's headquarters, but she didn't pay much attention to it.
In her opinion, this was ultimately just a trivial matter that didn't deserve her attention, so she had no idea that the person who came was Zhao Longhu.
For this reason, Liu Yan'er always stayed in the Peach Blossom Pavilion in the backyard.
The ground was covered in peach blossoms, a lush and intoxicating sight. Liu Yan'er sat in the pavilion, practicing her internal energy to open her acupoints. Before her, the Profound Yin Pearl was held in her hand, and streams of chilling true energy flowed into her body, continuously helping her break through her bottleneck.
After an unknown amount of time, she suddenly opened her eyes, a look of joy in them.
"The ninth acupoint has been opened."
Looking at the Profound Yin Pearl before her, she was filled with immense excitement. She had schemed for this pearl for a long time, even plotting against Zhao Longhu. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to obtain it with her own power. After all, that tomb wasn't easy to enter; Zhao Longhu had faced countless dangers and nearly died in the tomb itself. If she had gone, the outcome would likely have been even worse.
But in any case, everything has paid off, and now she has everything she wanted. As for the rest, they are no longer so important to her.
As for Zhao Longhu, she had completely forgotten about him. It's true that she once had some affection for Zhao Longhu, but so what? Before becoming the Holy Maiden of the Three Yin Sect, that little bit of affection had long been forgotten.
But just then, she heard a faint voice: "Is this Mysterious Yin Pearl really that important?"
Upon hearing the voice, Liu Yan'er's expression changed drastically. She abruptly looked in the direction from which the sound came, and saw Zhao Longhu holding a knife, leaning against the bamboo pavilion, looking at her calmly with extremely complex eyes.
A flicker of panic crossed Liu Yan'er's eyes, but she quickly regained her composure.
She didn't know when Zhao Longhu had appeared. If he had attacked her, she would likely have been killed. However, since Zhao Longhu was leaning against the bamboo pavilion and hadn't made a move against her, it was enough to prove that he had no intention of killing her. Therefore, the panic in Liu Yan'er's eyes quickly dissipated, and even a smile appeared on her lips, her eyes carrying a hint of allure.
Then, she greeted Zhao Longhu with a smile, "Brother Zhao, what brings you here?"
Zhao Longhu spoke with a complicated expression, "How could I not come? You betrayed my information to the three heroes of Qianzhou. I would have died at the hands of those three thugs by a hair's breadth. If it weren't for my fellow disciple's appearance, I'm afraid I would never have had the chance to see you again."
Liu Yan'er said, "Brother Zhao, I didn't do that. How could I betray you? Someone must have interfered. Once I find that person, I will definitely question them about why they did it."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Longhu's expression immediately turned ugly, a hint of anger appearing in his eyes. He then said:
"Do you think I'm a fool? The three heroes of Qianzhou came here for the Xuan Yin Pearl. But the Xuan Yin Pearl is only in your hands, and no one else knows about it except you."
Under such circumstances, if you hadn't informed the three heroes of Qianzhou that the Profound Yin Pearl was in my possession, how could they have possibly come looking for trouble with me? And now that you've used the Profound Yin Pearl to break through your limits, how can your conscience be at peace with you?"
Upon hearing Zhao Longhu expose everything, Liu Yan'er's expression immediately returned to calm, and then she spoke:
"Brother Zhao, there's nothing I can do about it."
The Three Yin Sect is different from your Tianwu Mountain. For your Tianwu Mountain, it is not strong enough and is nothing. Even a cripple can survive in your Tianwu Mountain. But it is different in the Three Yin Sect. The Three Yin Sect is a demonic sect. You should know what the demonic sect does. For the demonic sect, strength is everything. If you don't advance, you fall behind.
If I can't become stronger, I'll die sooner or later.
Others won't wait for me to slowly improve my skills. So I had no other choice.
Upon hearing Liu Yan'er's words, Zhao Longhu's expression became even more complicated: "Don't you intend to offer any explanation?"
He began to speak, having considered many possibilities, but to his utter surprise, Liu Yan'er did not offer any rebuttal. She simply recounted the cause and effect of the matter, as if none of it concerned her.
Liu Yan'er shook her head, then said:
"I did it, and since you have solid evidence, Brother Zhao, there's no point in me trying to deny it. But I really had no other choice."
As she spoke, Liu Yan'er's expression changed. Her eyes held a hint of sorrow, and her expression was filled with distress and complexity. Seeing this extremely complex expression, Zhao Longhu's heart, which had already grown cold, softened once again.
He thought that seeing Liu Yan'er this time would allow him to forget about her. But now that he has actually seen her, he realizes that he can't do it at all.
Although he knew that Liu Yan'er had almost killed him, looking at Liu Yan'er in front of him, he gripped the knife in his hand again and again, but he still couldn't raise it.
Liu Yan'er saw his expression, and a very slight smile appeared on her lips, which no one could see.
She guessed right, a thought flashed through Liu Yan'er's mind.
She knew that arguing at this moment was pointless, so she simply took advantage of Zhao Longhu's feelings for her. As long as Zhao Longhu still had some feelings for her, she believed that he would never make a move.
This was a conclusion she reached after her previous interactions with Zhao Longhu.
Her greatest weapon is her ability to control people's hearts.
The two talked for a long time, and although Zhao Longhu's expression was still complicated, he had unconsciously lost his killing intent.
Looking at Zhao Longhu in front of her, Liu Yan'er approached him step by step and said, "Brother Zhao, can you really let me leave? I really have no other choice. I have wronged you in this life. If there is an afterlife, it will not be like this. I hope you and I can stay together for a long time."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Longhu closed his eyes and said, "You can go now."
He knew he shouldn't do this, but he really had no other choice at the moment.
He couldn't lift the knife, so naturally he couldn't attack Liu Yan'er. Under these circumstances, there was no other way but to get Liu Yan'er to leave. Hearing this answer, Liu Yan'er finally smiled. She smiled and continued to approach Zhao Longhu, a barely perceptible killing intent flashing in her eyes.
Zhao Longhu let her leave, but that didn't mean she would actually do it. She knew very well that although Zhao Longhu would let her leave this time, while Zhao Longhu was easy to bully, Tianwu Mountain might not be so.
Now that Zhao Longhu is here and there, and the two have already clashed, she absolutely cannot let him leave easily. If she lets him go, there will definitely be a lot of trouble waiting for her in the future.
Therefore, it would be better to kill Zhao Longhu here. After all, she believed that Zhao Longhu was now alone. As long as Zhao Longhu was killed, no one would know what happened today, and even if they did, there would be no evidence.
As for taking advantage of Zhao Longhu's feelings, she didn't care at all.
But just as she was about to make her move, a lazy voice suddenly rang out: "Senior brother, it seems your progress here isn't going very smoothly."
Qin Wu stepped out from behind. He looked at the two people in front of him, and at Liu Yan'er, who was constantly approaching Zhao Longhu. When Liu Yan'er saw him, she stopped in her tracks, and her expression stiffened.
Clearly, she hadn't expected there to be someone behind Zhao Longhu. Then Qin Wu slowly walked to their side, looked at Liu Yan'er, and said to Zhao Longhu:
"Senior Brother Zhao, didn't you notice that Liu Yan'er was always holding a silver needle in her hand?"
Although Liu Yan'er hid it well, he felt that with Zhao Longhu's strength, he might be able to detect it. But under these circumstances, Zhao Longhu didn't make any move.
Upon hearing Qin Wu's words, Liu Yan'er's expression changed.
Zhao Longhu looked at Liu Yan'er, then slowly closed his eyes and said, "I saw it."
He did see it.
Before he arrived, he had already guessed that Liu Yan'er might kill him, so he naturally wasn't unprepared. Under these circumstances, although Liu Yan'er's silver needles were well hidden, he could tell from her movements that she had a certain killing intent towards him.
Even though he had guessed this, he still couldn't bring himself to attack Liu Yan'er, and he was even prepared to die. If he died here, it might be a relief for him.
Upon hearing these words, Liu Yan'er was taken aback, while Qin Wu sighed and said:
"That's such a pity. But like I said before, if Liu Yan'er doesn't do anything, then I can give you two some time to get along. But now, with what Liu Yan'er has done, I don't think there's any need to let her live."
The atmosphere instantly became tense.
