He found the cultivator who had the Inextinguishable Flame. He was moving and he appeared weak.
A sullen look crossed Qin Yu’s eyes. Did he need to think twice? If the cultivator was not going to come to him, he would head over!
I will find you if you don’t come for me.
While this was risky, the world was fair and he needed to pay a price if he wanted gains.
Taking a deep breath in, Qin Yu shot into the sky. The instant he crossed the small world, he instantly sensed the four Eyes of Darkness.
Shoosh!
He flashed and disappeared.
The World of Darkness must have taken a long time to construct the four Eyes of Darkness in Bounded Zero Place. However, this did not mean that the cultivators from the World of Darkness could teleport freely as they pleased within.
There was a limit to its use. For instance, there was a limit to the distance of teleportation every time. If it was too far, they would not be able to reach the destination. Furthermore, there would be a small deviation each time. The Eyes of Darkness would expend some energy with each teleportation.
The biggest problem in using the Eyes of Darkness teleportation was that it required energy! The cultivators from the World of Darkness would not use the Eyes of Darkness teleportation unless it was the last resort. If it was pushed beyond its limits, it might cause harm to the World of Darkness cultivator’s body.
However, this did not bother Qin Yu at all. He did not know about this, but so what if he did? What would he gain from helping the World of Darkness? Hehe!
As such, before he could determine how long it would require for the supporter of the Dark Fire to be refined, he needed to hurry.
At the end of every teleportation, he did not stop even if he met cute creatures along the way. He would end their lives very quickly.
Teleport!
Teleport!
Teleport!
Shoosh!
Qin Yu appeared on a small world fragment and his eyes scanned his surroundings. After verifying that things were okay, he sat down.
Even at his cultivation rank, he felt the depletion of his energy after so many teleportations. He was very close to his destination. If he was lucky, he would be able to reach it with one more teleportation. But if he was unlucky…
The moment this thought appeared, Qin Yu turned his head and shook it away. His expression changed; he would not think about things that he did not want to happen. Suddenly, his breathing changed and dark energy surged out and covered his body.
In the next instant, the space vibrated and two cultivators from the World of Darkness stepped out. They stared at Qin Yu and sensed darkness aura on him. Instantly, they frowned.
“Who are you? Why are you here?”
In the darkness, Qin Yu quickly came up with an idea. He laughed coldly, “I was ordered to guard this small world fragment and prevent anyone from entering. Who are you guys?”
The two cultivators were stunned by the question. One of them frowned, “You don’t recognize me?”
His heart jumped and Qin Yu cursed under his breath. It seemed that this person had a high status. He might be exposed before he reached his destination. Since he was already discovered, he needed to be vicious and kill the two people in front of him.
A red flash crossed his eyes. But before Qin Yu attacked, the World of Darkness cultivator suddenly asked, “Are you with His Highness?”
Qin Yu’s eyes flickered and his tone grew arrogant, “Since you know who I am, why aren’t you guys reporting your names?”
“How dare you!” As the man shouted, he pressed forward, “How dare you disrespect a general. I will crush you and bring you to His Highness!”
The other person laughed. “General Tiger Roar has a high status and he has a place in front of His Highness too. You are asking to die!”
The dark energy around Qin Yu started to crumble apart and he was pressed onto the ground. His face turned pale and he panicked internally.
“General, please spare me!”
General Tiger Roar yelled, “Bring him along. I need to ask His Highness. Is this how he treats me?”
“Yes, General!” The other man grabbed onto Qin Yu and then they jumped into the sky.
Buzz –
Space waves surrounded him and General Tiger Roar suddenly groaned. The energy from the Eyes of Darkness slowed and he was caught off guard by the sudden space waves.
“General, are you alright?” The person grabbing onto Qin Yu asked.
General Tiger Roar shook his head, “It is fine.” His expression darkened, “There is actually a depletion of the energy within the Eyes of Darkness. What in the world did His Highness do to cause such a sharp drop in the energy?”
The ‘captured’ Qin Yu’s eyes flashed. If he was right, this was caused by him.
No way was he going to tell them that.
He was still wondering how he would sneak an attack and deplete the energy from the weakened camp of darkness. It was very easy, the supporter of the Dark Fire was refining something and he could not move. There must be guards around him.
If he was captured by these men, it would not be easy to get rid of everyone.
Time was tight and he had to hurry…however, before Qin Yu thought of a plan, the person in question came forward.
It was as though he had infiltrated the enemy camp and beaten them senseless. It was so easy.
A good person, what a good person!
The Great Dao avatar he met before was from General Tiger Roar. Qin Yu had a good impression of the cultivators from the World of Darkness.
Thousand Saint wanted to kill him previously but he ended up delivering the Fire of Eternal Night to him. Hundred Saint had also considered him an ally till his death. He even sacrificed himself for Qin Yu.
How touching, maybe he should be kinder…sigh, never mind. People ought to take responsibility for their own lives.
This was a realization!
Shoosh!
The scene in front of him brightened. The teleportation was over. Qin Yu looked at his surroundings and could not help admiring General Tiger Roar.
His name was boring and he had a simple aura. Yet, his skills were good and he managed to get where he wanted in one shot. There were people from the World of Darkness guarding the area.
However, when these cultivators saw General Tiger Roar, they immediately turned respectful and they bowed, “Greetings to General Tiger Roar!”
“Mm.” He coldly acknowledged them before stepping forward, “Where is His Highness? I am looking for him urgently.”
The person behind him threw Qin Yu forward, “This man was outrageous and he disrespected General Tiger Roar. Lock him up first. We will deal with him after the general meets His Highness!”
“Yes yes yes, General, please rest assured. I will look after him properly.” The guards nodded their heads continuously. He looked at Qin Yu…hm, he had not seen this man before. Was he new?
He was bold to offend General Tiger Roar. His Highness was fighting for power now and he needed General Tiger Roar’s support to make his life smoother.
This lad was going to be in deep trouble. Hopefully his background was good. Otherwise, he would be crushed instantly!
Qin Yu felt the looks of mockery, pity and many other complicated emotions. He thought about it. Should he take action now?
His time was precious. Furthermore, with General Tiger Roar here and the many other World of Darkness cultivators all gathered here, it would be easy for him to be surrounded.
He could not wait any longer!
Qin Yu raised his head and looked at the crowd. On his pale face, he suddenly revealed a smile.
This lad actually dared to smile? Was he crazy? The thought of ‘lunatic’ crossed their minds, but then their hearts suddenly stopped in the next instant. Wild forces rushed for them and enveloped them as an intense fire burnt them clean.
There was only one chance for him to act. A large scale group attack was the best choice.
While he might not be able to kill too many people, it was a good chance for him to cut the forces of the World of Darkness by half.
If they were injured, were these men still going to be a problem for him?
“Ambush!” One World of Darkness cultivator screamed. Fresh blood spurted out of his mouth and his face had been slit open. Blood poured out from his wound and quickly, his entire face became as red as the devil.
This man’s aura was strong and his eyes were firm despite the sudden attack. He showed the style of a leader.
If Qin Yu did not kill such a person first, would he let him live and cause trouble in the future? With this thought, Qin Yu made his next move. He stepped forward and closed the distance between them in a flash. The man’s eyes narrowed and he punched out in anger.
His reaction was fast and his determination was strong too. Knowing that he could not avoid it, he put in all his power for his blow. If he could defend himself, he could also obtain the support from the surrounding men. This was his best bet.
He was a smart person!
However, since Qin Yu wanted to kill him, he did not let this man have a chance to breathe.
Bam!
A loud ‘bam’ sounded, like a ripe persimmon falling from a branch to the ground. It crashed apart and its juices spilled out.
Oh, such a nice scene. The live body split apart like the persimmon. Of course, there were no juices that seeped into the ground. Everything was absorbed by the darkness aura.
Cheat! If he did not kill that man, what was the point? Qin Yu sometimes felt that the World of Darkness men were pretty good, they just did not have morals.
Many thoughts rushed through his mind after that first blow. Qin Yu did not stop and he swept his arm forward. Another two cultivators from the World of Darkness were blown backwards. They crashed to the floor with ‘bam’ sounds and their bodies twitched. Very reluctantly, they turned into darkness energy and dissipated.
“Protect His Highness!”
“Stop this man at any cost!”
Screams and shouts. Qin Yu had killed another two men in the meantime. Were they protecting him or did they need to save him?
General Tiger Roar mentioned His Highness. These men also spoke of His Highness. It seemed like the person who sent the Great Dao avatar over was him.
This also meant that the Inextinguishable Flame was with His Highness…perfect!
In the deep cave, General Tiger Roar met with His Highness. He coughed lightly but before he could continue, he heard a commotion outside.
In order to avoid being sensed by the outside world, there were a lot of arrays inside the cave. Hence, he could not hear properly.
Li Zhouyi frowned slightly before his expression turned calm again, “It must be a creature that barged into the small world fragment. It will be resolved soon. We don’t need to worry.”
He smiled…he could not speak and his smile was frozen. Right at that moment, the cave shook and screams were heard.
It was like a slap to his own face.
Li Zhouyi’s expression turned dark.
Opposite him, General Tiger Roar waved his hand, “Wolf Guard, you head out. We need to talk privately.”
General Tiger Roar was giving him a way out.
Wolf Guard was the cultivator who had been following him all along. He bowed and said, “Yes, General.” After he bowed to Li Zhouyi, he turned and left.
Looking at his back, Li Zhouyi sighed, “I heard that your subordinate, the Wolf Guards, are powerful people. Meeting one of them today, it seems the rumors were not a lie.”
A pleased look crossed General Tiger Roar’s face. In the West Region, the Wolf Guards were considered top notch, “When Your Highness returns victorious, Tiger Roar Mansion will send ten Wolf Guards to be your personal bodyguards.”
This was akin to a promise and it also expressed his support. Of course, there were prerequisites that he had to fulfill and this was just General Tiger Roar’s way of saying that if Li Zhouyi wanted his support, he first needed to prove himself.
It was very reasonable!
Li Zhouyi burst into laughter, “Good, then I will wait for your men. I have to say I want the best of the best.”
Bam!
A hollow explosion cut off the conversation between the two young men.
Wolf Guard who had been sent out just now was thrown onto a rock. Blood spurted out of his chest from a wound and he desperately struggled to say, “General, there is… a strong enemy outside!”
Although a quick glance was all he had before he was attacked, Wolf Guard had seen clearly. The person who the general brought back was the enemy. However, how could he say this in front of Li Zhouyi? That would be stabbing his own general.
What Wolf Guard did not know was that his pitiful and bloody sight was a slap to General Tiger Roar’s face already. It was a loud and clear slap.
He had even talked about sending Wolf Guards over to Li Zhouyi. Yet suddenly, this scene happened in front of him. General Tiger Roar’s expression stiffened and he sighed as he cupped his hands, “We were interrupted at a critical moment. An enemy has attacked us outside; I will personally kill him!”
A look of worry crossed Wolf Guard’s face but he could not say anything anymore. After one last breath, he fainted.
Killing intent rushed through General Tiger Roar’s face. He hesitated and his face turned colder.
Li Zhouyi coughed, “With General here, I have no need to worry.”
He did not speak anymore. Actions were always louder than words. General Tiger Roar was going to bring the head of the enemy to him to wash away his embarrassment.
General Tiger Roar nodded his head and then left. As he crossed the boundaries to the outside world, ear-piercing screams and the pungent smell of blood immediately flooded his nose.
His eyes narrowed and a cold glare flashed. Once he stepped out of the cave, he locked onto the enemy.
He stood rooted to his spot.
Instantly, his face turned red and he finally understood why Wolf Guard stammered! Rage and embarrassment filled him.
