“Sorry then!” Qin Yu grunted and threw a punch.
Thousand Saint waved his sleeve to block the blow. Darkness gushed out like a tsunami.
The exchange between cultivators of the True Saint level was powerful and the palace crumbled apart like paper being torn.
The descendants gathered here were like ants before a mountain and they were completely powerless. They could only cry in pain as they were killed.
Honestly, this was way faster than Qin Yu killing them individually.
“Nine.”
Stone Pagoda kept count. He just needed to kill two more descendants to hit the target of thirty-six.
Qin Yu asked, “Thousand Saint, are you going to stop me today?”
“You are the one being adamant about this. I cannot stop.” Thousand Saint’s expression turned serious, “Too many have died in the Red Peak Straits. Stop now.”
“Do you think I will stop just because you tell me to? So what about the World of Darkness?” Qin Yu roared with laughter and pressed his hand down firmly. A descendant suddenly burst into pieces.
He looked at Thousand Saint with a cold and hateful expression, “This will be it for now. If you try to stop me next time, I won’t be kind!”
He turned and left in the direction that one of the descendants of Old Ancestor went in. The descendant had thought that he had escaped when suddenly, his expression turned ghastly and with a ‘bam’, he exploded.
“Ha ha ha ha!”
Qin Yu gave an uproarious laughter. Then he left in the blink of an eye.
Thousand Saint’s expression hardened but he was actually smiling internally. Qin Yu was brazen, arrogant, violent…he was completely the kind of person who had lost his mind after he became exponentially stronger.
Very good, it seemed like Black Turtle’s judgment was right. Qin Yu would not give up. When Hundred Saint and the other Darkness True Saint arrived, the three Saints’ combined powers could call forth Fire of Eternal Night.
That would be the day of Qin Yu’s death!
……
The latest news reached the Dragon Palace. Qin Yu had conducted a massacre to lure out Thousand Saint. They did not fight and Qin Yu left by himself after a while. After the Dragon Saint learned of this, he could not help frowning deeply as he became more confused.
What was Qin Yu doing? While it was a massacre, he was actually just like a fly buzzing around annoying everyone. His actions were useless.
Mister Ninth of the Peach Garden was a strong individual in this world. Was this how he acted? If that was the case, the Red Peak Straits would be where a theft would be conducted.
Should he inform the Spring Master? After all, if something happened to Qin Yu in the East Sea, the Dragon Saint would be blamed.
However, the Spring Master was logical!
The Dragon Saint suffered from his headache and he wallowed in his disappointment. Suddenly, his expression changed. He lightly coughed and smiled, “Mister Ninth, what is it?”
“Lord Dragon Saint, you are probably aware of what I am doing right?” Qin Yu’s voice echoed through the hall.
The Dragon Saint maintained his smile, “I just heard of the news. Mister Ninth, you have been conducting a massacre in the Red Peak Straits, shocking everyone with your strength.”
Qin Yu lightly said, “You must have felt I was stupid after hearing the news. You were probably close to informing the Spring Master just in case I died in the Red Peak Straits and got you in trouble.”
The Dragon Saint was speechless.
If you could guess everything I thought about, what else can I say?
“Ah…hahaha. Mister Ninth you must be joking. Since that is the case, you must have your reasons for doing so. I would not dare to criticize you.”
Qin Yu replied, “Is that so? Then it was all in my head. Please don’t blame me.”
Although he apologized, it felt like he was scolding me…Lord Dragon Saint sighed and decided not to chase the matter. He continued, “Mister Ninth, what is it?”
He had regained his composure. Qin Yu’s words told him that his earlier guess was wrong. Qin Yu was not dumb and he had his reasons for doing what he did.
Qin Yu said, “There is one thing I will need to trouble Dragon Saint for. Can you cover the East Sea with your senses? Please inform me when you sense any aura of darkness.”
This was not an easy feat and it required quite a lot of energy. However, the implication of Qin Yu’s words made the Dragon Saint anxious.
The Dragon Saint already knew that Thousand Saint was in the Red Peak Straits, but Qin Yu implied that another person from the World of Darkness was going to come.
There was no need for Qin Yu, with his current cultivation level, to fear anyone. He would not need to trouble the Dragon Saint too. This meant that Qin Yu felt the person who was coming was strong, and he needed to make his preparations.
A Darkness True Saint!
This was not a difficult task but the Dragon Saint’s expression stiffened and many thoughts crossed his mind. In a flat tone, he asked, “Mister Ninth, what do you mean? Someone is coming from the World of Darkness. Are you going to…”
He did not say the next few words, ‘kill them’ but it was very clear what he implied. Qin Yu was really going to wreak havoc.
In this world, most people would avoid the World of Darkness. Qin Yu not only purposely sought them out, he wanted to kill them. Even if he succeeded at killing them, this was a grave matter and the World of Darkness would not let him off.
Furthermore, the East Sea would be dragged into the mess. The consequences were unimaginable!
Qin Yu assured, “Lord Dragon Saint, you overthink. I know my own strength well. I am unable to conduct a Saint Slaying by myself.”
The Dragon Saint’s heart jumped. What did Qin Yu mean by that? If he was unable to do it by himself, did he want the Dragon Saint’s help?
“Mister Ninth, the East Sea is not willing to become enemies with the World of Darkness. No matter what you do, I will not interfere.”
He was determined and there was no room for negotiation!
Qin Yu was at a loss for words. Not long ago, the Dragon Saint had said that he would support Qin Yu. Although Qin Yu knew that the Dragon Saint often exaggerated, it had been such a short time and yet the Dragon Saint was going against his words.
Furthermore, the Dragon Saint was really imaginative. Qin Yu wanted to save someone and killing others was an accompaniment. Before he saved Cang Zhu, he would not mobilize anyone else.
“Dragon Saint, rest assured. I guarantee you that I don’t have any intentions of killing Darkness True Saints of the World of Darkness. I can swear on this. Finding the location of the Darkness True Saint is just a preparation for the next part of my plan.”
Dragon Saint was silent for a long time, “I can agree to this. Please abide by your promise or I will have to step in.
“Also, there is another thing to note. There is a limit to the number of times the dragon scale can connect us. It might break after I send you the notification.”
Qin Yu rubbed his forehead, “I understand.”
The conversation ended and he laughed bitterly. This old man had thick skin. What kind of dragon scale would have a limit? He did not mention this previously. It was obvious that the Dragon Saint wanted to wash his hands of the matter quickly because he sensed trouble.
He could not blame the Dragon Saint. Strictly speaking, there was nothing much he could do. It was not wrong to try to protect himself when there was danger.
The East Sea was the territory of the Dragon Saint. If he was willing, the Dragon Saint could release his senses and detect any anomaly.
The only hole in his plan had been patched.
Next, Qin Yu only had to wait for Hundred Saint to arrive…of course, he did not want to waste too much time. He could perhaps plan for his next steps in his plan and ensure nothing went wrong.
He opened his palm. Between his five fingers, there was a drop of Black Turtle’s fresh blood and also a dark crystal.
This item was formed from a high density of dark energy that Qin Yu obtained from killing people previously.
No matter how cautious Thousand Saint was, he would have never imagined that he was schemed against.
Shoosh –
Qin Yu zipped away and headed to the Red Peak Straits.
There was a simple reason. Since they wanted to kill him, Hundred Saint’s presence could not be known and he would not come to the Red Peak Straits directly.
A day flashed by.
Seated on a stone at the bottom of the sea, Qin Yu suddenly opened his eyes. The scale flew towards him and a voice said, “He is here.”
A divine sense transferred to him. Before Qin Yu replied, there was a smashing sound and the dragon scale broke into pieces.
The Dragon Saint was really determined!
Qin Yu’s mouth twitched but he did not ponder further. He pointed and tore the space in front of him apart. He stepped out into the fragmented space. Then, a thick darkness enveloped him and he disappeared within it.
……
Hundred Saint had arrived.
He had been careful and made sure that he did not cause much disturbance to the East Sea when he entered it. As much as he could, he tried to contain his own aura.
It was Peach Garden Qin Yu and the innate spirit as spoken of in the legends. There was no limit on how cautious he should be.
If the news spread, there would be movement in the World of Darkness.
True Saints were still True Saints. Just as Hundred Saint was about to leave, the mirror-like sea below him started to break into numerous pieces.
In the next instant, the space in front of him broke apart and thick darkness gushed out. Hundred Saint’s expression relaxed.
It was a person from the World of Darkness and he recognized this aura.
A flash crossed his eyes and Hundred Saint said, “It is you. We met when Thousand Saint connected us that day.”
He was not exposed!
The first meeting was the most dangerous. If he was fooled then, the next step would be much easier. Of course, it was not easy pulling off an act in front of a True Saint. A slight mishap would change everything.
In the darkness, Qin Yu laughed in a low tone, “You must not know me. That’s fine, we can be friends.”
His tone was confident.
Hundred Saint frowned, “We can be friends but your entrance was too big. After all, this is the East Sea, the territory of the Dragon Saint!”
“Hehe, Hundred Saint, are you worried that the Dragon Saint will find out about our plan to kill Qin Yu in the Red Peak Straits?” There was a coldness in Qin Yu’s voice. “You overthink. If the Dragon Saint is helping, how could I have pinpointed your location?”
Hundred Saint’s expression changed, “Are you saying that Thousand Saint allied with the Dragon Saint?”
Sorry Lord Dragon Saint, although I know that you will resist this, I have to use you. After all, with everything that will happen in the East Sea, you will not be able to wipe your hands clean. Why not help me out?
“That’s right. You are correct. That is why I am here to meet you and be friends.”
