Chapter 17: How Could I Betray My Master If We're Not Brothers?
Su Ye spread his arms wide, looking utterly manic.
This time, Xuan Chengzi had become the prey!
"Where exactly did things go wrong?"
"I've deliberately hidden my tracks for so many years, how could my hidden location be found so easily?!"
Xuan Chengzi's brows were tightly furrowed, his expression chillingly grim.
As he was pondering, Lu Xun behind him suddenly pointed, "Master, look at that brat!"
Huh?!
Qin Yang immediately caught Xuan Chengzi's eye.
Instantly, his pupils contracted violently, followed by an uncontrollable surge of rage and killing intent.
"It's you, you little beast!"
"It's one thing that you escaped, but you actually brought my enemy here!"
Xuan Chengzi's voice was bone-chillingly cold, as he naturally recognized Qin Yang.
Previously, he had spared Qin Yang's life because he saw him as a promising talent. Who would have thought that Qin Yang would not only kill Bai Feng and escape, but now bring his lifelong enemy to his doorstep.
He was so furious he wanted to crush Qin Yang on the spot!
"Master, this fellow truly doesn't know what's good for him."
"You treated him kindly, yet this little beast repays you like this."
"Could it be that he isn't afraid of the poison from the Soul Locking Pill in his body?"
Lu Xun asked in surprise.
Xuan Chengzi's face was grim. He didn't understand why Qin Yang was so fearless. Was it the boldness of a newborn calf?
"Forget it. Once I tear through this evil formation, it won't be too late to kill that ungrateful little beast!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he attacked again.
The method he used was exactly the same as Su Ye's.
"Heavenly Yin Blood Sucking Technique!"
Xuan Chengzi roared to the sky, his terrifying cultivation aura erupting and sweeping in all directions. His gaping maw was like a bottomless pit, devouring the attacking ghosts and vengeful spirits!
However, Su Ye naturally wouldn't just wait to die.
"Xuan Chengzi, you can't escape this time."
"Even I know your whereabouts. It's only a matter of time before Senior Brother and Master arrive."
"Why don't you quickly hand over the Spirit Seed Creation True Scripture and the Five Elements Refinement Technique you possess? Perhaps I can show you leniency!"
Spirit Seed Creation True Scripture, Five Elements Refinement Technique?!
This was the first time Qin Yang had heard of the techniques Xuan Chengzi possessed, and he immediately realized they were no ordinary items.
Otherwise, why would Su Ye have tracked him all the way here and demanded them right away?
It was obvious they were extremely powerful spells!
He immediately took note of this crucial information, which might be useful if he were to restart.
"Hehehe."
Xuan Chengzi grinned sinisterly, "Aren't you also here for the Spirit Seed Creation True Scripture and the Five Elements Refinement Technique? Why pretend to be so noble, using the name of the sect to capture me?"
"By seniority, I should indeed call you Senior Brother, but in terms of strength, you are far inferior."
"Break!"
Xuan Chengzi let out a long roar, and a force that made Qin Yang's mind go blank shot up into the sky.
He quickly covered his ears.
But even so, blood uncontrollably flowed from his seven orifices.
Looking again, the evil formation Su Ye had set up had actually been broken. The formation flags were scattered and shattered!
This unexpected turn of events shocked Su Ye, but also filled him with immense joy.
"Your cultivation has indeed grown stronger."
"It seems the Spirit Seed Creation True Scripture is truly powerful. Even though you only took half of it from Master, it allowed your cultivation to soar in just a few years. Excellent, excellent!"
"I'm even more interested!"
Su Ye laughed. Not only was he unafraid, but seeing Xuan Chengzi's growth made him even more eager to obtain what the latter possessed!
Swish!
The dragon-headed staff in his hand emanated an evil aura. The next moment, with the activation of a spell, the staff actually came alive, transforming into a giant black python that lunged to devour Xuan Chengzi, a truly astonishing technique!
Qin Yang, meanwhile, took this opportunity to sort out his thoughts.
"Xuan Chengzi is truly bizarre. It seems he was once a disciple of an evil sect, rebelled against them, and stole their techniques!"
"From what Su Ye said, even the incomplete Spirit Seed Creation True Scripture has immeasurable power. No wonder he cared so much about it."
"I wonder if I can just sit back and reap the benefits?"
He mused internally.
With the system, he had enough room for error. He just needed to find an opening to strike. Once he obtained it, it would be his permanently, and he'd never have to worry again!
However, his idea was destined to be shattered.
Because at that very moment, Lu Xun and Chang Er came charging in with menacing auras.
"You beast who has betrayed your master, where do you think you're running!"
??
Qin Yang's head throbbed.
Dude, how did I betray my master?
But Lu Xun and Chang Er didn't care about that. They were ordered to kill Qin Yang and wouldn't let him live!
"Heavenly Yin Blood Sucking Technique!"
Lu Xun's cultivation was the strongest. He could remotely extract the blood and energy from living beings, making it impossible to defend against!
Coupled with his cultivation being higher than Qin Yang's to begin with, Qin Yang was caught off guard the moment the attack started. He was in a dilemma, unable to decide whether to run or not.
This is bad. I haven't cultivated any techniques. I have all this Spiritual Power but can't unleash its full might!
Qin Yang frantically spun around, finally realizing how important it was to master a technique.
Unfortunately, over the past few lifetimes, he hadn't encountered any good opportunities to obtain martial arts, let alone cultivate them.
For now, his only option was probably to channel his Spiritual Power into his physical strength and fight them with all his might!
"Forget it. Anyway, there are less than ten days before the poison from the Soul Locking Pill takes effect."
"I'm not living anyway, so I'll go all out with you!"
Qin Yang made up his mind.
Killing one would be breaking even, killing two would be a huge profit.
Killing none would be no profit, no loss!
He immediately tried to mobilize the meager Spiritual Power within him, constantly channeling it into his physical strength. Soon, it surpassed five thousand jin!
Swish!
Qin Yang charged forward.
This was completely unexpected for both Lu Xun and Chang Er. Qin Yang actually dared to attack them, it was like the heavens were inverting!
"No, he has cultivation within him, and it's not low!"
"What's going on?!"
After engaging in combat, Lu Xun and Chang Er finally discovered why Qin Yang dared to advance. His cultivation had reached the sixth level of the Qi Refining Realm.
This made them both incredulous.
After all, the Medicinal Seeds their Master captured were only youths with Spirit Roots but no cultivation. Qin Yang had only escaped for a little over half a month, yet he had gone from an ordinary person to the sixth level of the Qi Refining Realm. What kind of monster was this?!
Could he be some rare, unseen cultivation genius?!
"Never mind all that. We'll know once we capture him."
"There must be something fishy about this kid!"
Chang Er said coldly.
Lu Xun thought it made sense. As long as they captured him alive and handed him over to their Master, Xuan Chengzi, with his strange methods, they wouldn't have to worry about Qin Yang not talking!
Swish!
The three clashed, Qin Yang's momentum was like a rainbow.
