Qin Qin: Waiting for More People from the Great Evolution Holy Land to Deliver Treasures

"No, no!"

Accompanied by a hysterical scream from the sky, the few people who were barely clinging to life instantly lost their vitality and fell into Supreme Yin Lake as corpses.

Quiet, the Supreme Yin Lake are utterly still.

The members of the Thousand Mechanisms Sect dared not cause any more trouble; they all looked at the woman playing the zither in the lake with awe.

As they watched the Taiji pattern dissipate in the sky, only one thought remained in their minds—escape. This was not a place for small sects like theirs.

Even the best Supreme Yin Stone is useless if you're not alive to get it.

"Senior Sister Qin, we were just passing by and disturbed your peace. We hope that Senior Sister Qin will be magnanimous and not hold it against us."

"The senior disciple of the Thousand Mechanisms Gate Zhuge Zheng, said with a respectful expression."

His fellow disciples were not angry that their senior brother was being so obsequious and ingratiating; on the contrary, they thought he was very responsible.

Even at a time like this, they still have the courage to stand up. If it were them, they wouldn't even have the courage to look that Senior Sister Qin in the eye.

Qin Qin stopped playing the zither, slowly put on her blindfold, and said calmly, "It's alright. After all, I'm not someone who kills innocent people indiscriminately. You've come here to find some kind of treasure, haven't you?"

Zhuge Zheng cupped his hands and said, "The treasures in Supreme Yin Lake are what Senior Sister Qin has her eye on; we dare not covet them."

Qin Qin smiled gently, "So, you know what treasures are in this lake?"

The members of the Thousand Mechanisms Sect were taken aback. Could it be that this person hadn't come for the Supreme Yin Stone in the lake?

Despite his doubts, Zhuge Zheng still shared what he knew. "Reporting to Senior Sister Qin, if our detection is correct, there are Supreme Yin Stone in this Supreme Yin Lake, and after so many years, these Supreme Yin Stone must be engraved with the Supreme Yin Power Supreme Yin Dao Runes."

Qin Qin's eyes lit up upon hearing this; the Supreme Yin Power was one of the two powers she cultivated.

Master is right, these guys from the Great Evolution Holy Land are here to deliver treasures to me.

She parted her teeth slightly and said, "I see. You want to enter this Supreme Yin Lake to collect Supreme Yin Stone?"

Upon hearing this, the members of the Thousand Mechanisms Sect were initially delighted, but then a thought flashed through their minds.

Could this Senior Sister Qin be trying to fish? After all, the wooden sign says, "Anyone who enters Supreme Yin Lake will die."

Qin Qin immediately saw through everyone's thoughts and said with a smile, "Don't worry, we don't have any blood feud between us. As long as you retrieve all the corpses from the lake, I will give you a chance to enter the lake to search for the Supreme Yin Stone. However, you must give me half of what you get."

Is this really true?

Zhuge Zheng blurted it out unconsciously.

The people behind him looked at Qin Qin with strange eyes. What was this woman's background? How could she have survived the massacre of the Great Evolution Holy Land and still join the Dao-Seeking Academy?

"Of course, if I wanted to kill you, why would I need to waste words?" Qin Qin said unhurriedly, as if she were talking about a trivial matter.

"Senior Sister Qin is right. In that case, let's begin. I hope Senior Sister Qin will keep her word."

As Zhuge Zheng spoke, he turned his gaze to his junior brothers behind him.

"This operation is entirely voluntary. If anyone is unwilling, you may leave the valley now."

The group exchanged glances, but no one spoke first.

Finally, he said to his Junior Brother Hou, "Senior brother, please include me."

Junior Sister Lan gritted her teeth. "Senior Brother, I'm going too."

"Alright, everyone else will come with me into the water in a bit. You should take all the storage bags and weapons from the cultivators of the Great Evolution Holy Land and other forces and hand them over to that Senior Sister Qin."

Zhuge Zheng quickly assigned the tasks.

"Promise!"

After everyone responded, the members of the Thousand Mechanisms Sect began to go into the water to retrieve the bodies.

Meanwhile, Great Void Secret Realm.

At the Great Evolution Holy Land's headquarters, all the elders and the head of the Dark Hall were meditating in a tent, with one hundred soul lamps placed in front of them.

Bang bang bang...

A sound like a soul lamp exploding rang out.

Everyone suddenly opened their eyes and looked closely, only to find that more than a dozen soul lamps had shattered at the same time.

Upon seeing this, the leader of the Dark Hall's face darkened. "What exactly happened? Why have all the disciples of my Great Evolution Holy Land perished in such a short time?"

An elder said, "Perhaps someone discovered a treasure and clashed with other forces. I wonder which brat was leading the team; they've lost so many people in such a short time."

Although the surrounding elders did not speak, they nodded slightly in response.

Every time the Great Void Secret Realm opens, even holy lands suffer losses; under normal circumstances, a loss of one-third is considered normal.

This time, however, the loss of more than a dozen disciples made everyone feel uneasy, and an ominous premonition lingered in their hearts.

"Senior Sister Qin, these are your spoils."

Junior Sister Lan carefully placed a pile of storage bags and storage rings a few feet in front of Qin Qin.

Qin Qin glanced at the pile of things and said calmly, "Choose some weapons for your fellow disciples, one for each of them."

"This... isn't that a bit inappropriate?"

Junior Sister Lan never expected such a benefit; it seems this Senior Sister Qin isn't as vicious as she'd imagined.

Qin Qin said, "I said choose, so you choose. If you don't want it, then leave."

"I choose, I choose."

Junior Sister Lan began selecting ten weapons according to the needs of her fellow disciples, then respectfully said, "Senior Sister Qin, you're such a kind person!"

"Um."

Qin Qin responded calmly, but for some reason, she felt a little strange when she heard the words "great person".

While the members of the Thousand Mechanisms Sect were searching for the Supreme Yin Stone, Qin Qin used her divine sense to erase the residual divine sense on each of the storage bags and storage rings.

Looking at the contents of the container, a slight smile involuntarily crept onto her lips.

These guys are really a bunch of treasure hunters, saving me the trouble of searching for treasures one by one.

Time passed by, minute by minute.

Three days and three nights later, Zhuge Zheng carried a crystal-clear Supreme Yin Stone, about the size of a wooden stake, emanating a strong chill, from the lake onto the pavilion.

In order not to leave a bad impression on the person in front of him, he even used his magic to evaporate the moisture from his body.

"Senior Sister Qin, we have discovered a Supreme Yin Stone with nine Dao Resonance in the lake. Please accept it."

"Just leave it there." Qin Qin's tone was completely flat, as if it were just an ordinary stone.

"Promise."

Zhuge Zheng dared not speak again, but thought to himself: This Senior Sister Qin is indeed a prodigy from the Dao-Seeking Academy. She can be so calm about such a treasure as the Supreme Yin Stone.

It's a pity they weren't strong enough, otherwise they could have taken over the Supreme Yin Spirit Vein in the lake.

"Enough," Zhuge Zheng, "One cannot be ungrateful." After putting down the Supreme Yin Stone, he turned and left.

After everyone had left, Qin Qin calmly stored the Supreme Yin Stone in her storage ring and continued cultivating, hoping to wait for the others from the Great Evolution Holy Land to come and deliver the treasure...
