Protagonist:
Yu Changsheng
Leng Xu sneered, "It's clearly your own stupidity. Those corpses on the ground are right there. You knew there was danger yet weren't careful. Who can you blame?"
Qi Liu San looked at Leng Xu with gritted teeth, his anger reaching its peak.
He knew this place was dangerous, but he never expected that a mere probe would bring a fatal calamity upon him.
"Then how come you're fine?"
Leng Xu raised an eyelid, gave him a sidelong glance, and said, "I said you're stupid to a remarkable degree. I'm fine, but aren't you also fine?"
Qi Liu San also reacted. Right, when the black lines pursued and killed several of his subordinates, they then vanished.
He had thought it was because he had distanced himself from the black tower's attack range that he managed to survive.
But judging by Leng Xu's situation, it was clearly not that simple.
"Do you know what's going on?" Qi Liu San asked.
Leng Xu looked at him as if looking at a fool.
"Saying you're stupid is flattering you. Even a three-year-old child is smarter than you."
Qi Liu San was thoroughly enraged. "You woman are simply bullying me too far."
Leng Xu laughed in disdain, beckoned with her hand, and Qian Lintian's puppet immediately approached.
"Want to make a move on me? Ask him if he agrees first!"
Qi Liu San immediately retreated vigilantly, simultaneously sizing up Qian Lintian. He quickly discovered something was wrong.
Qian Lintian's expression was wooden, his movements seemed somewhat stiff, and his body had almost no life force at all.
Qi Liu San quickly saw through the trick and exclaimed in surprise, "Unexpectedly this poisonous woman actually has such means. Good thing I didn't fall for your trap."
She coldly laughed, "Is that so? Look at your own hand again."
Qi Liu San was startled, raised his hand to observe carefully, but found nothing abnormal.
Just then he heard Leng Xu across from him burst into mocking laughter, the sound grating harshly on Qi Liu San's ears.
"See, you fell for it. You old fellow really are stupid to a remarkable degree."
Qi Liu San's face instantly flushed crimson. He had just said he wouldn't fall for it, then turned his head and got tricked. He had truly lost all face.
"Ugly woman, I see you really don't know what's good for you! Looking for death?"
Leng Xu said, "Do you really think I'm easy to bully?"
The two deadlocked for a while. In the end, Qi Liu San, because he had to face two alone and knew he would definitely suffer a loss, coldly hmphed and prepared to leave.
However, at this moment, several figures in the distance drew both their gazes simultaneously.
Unexpectedly, another group of people had arrived.
Qi Liu San shouted in a low voice, "Witch, later don't reveal the situation here. Let's see if they have any way to deal with it."
Leng Xu looked down on this old man even more. He suffered a huge loss himself, yet still wanted others to suffer to balance it out.
"Hmph! How I act doesn't require you to teach me!"
Leng Xu shook her round fan, waiting in place.
Qi Liu San looked at the corpses on the ground, directly swept his arm, and all that flesh and blood turned to powder, leaving no trace whatsoever.
Such a scene also made the hearts of Yu Changsheng and the others watching from afar tremble.
"Unexpectedly this old thing Qi Liu San is so ruthless. He doesn't even spare the corpses of his own people."
Hu Ruhai cursed darkly.
"What is this old thing trying to do?" Some people also couldn't understand Qi Liu San's behavior.
Wang Meng coldly hmphed, "What else can he do? Nothing more than not wanting the new arrivals to know what happened here. This person's thoughts are truly vicious."
The two subordinates of Qi Liu San in the team also felt their hearts turn cold watching this. The person they followed actually completely disregarded them.
"Hehe, now you know why I didn't let you go out earlier, right? This old thing isn't a good person at all!"
One of them also nodded, "I misjudged him. I actually joined his team back then. Pah, this old thing really isn't human!"
And that group of figures in the distance also slowly approached. Everyone saw their appearances clearly.
"Seems to be people from the Da Sheng Clan. No, seems there are others too."
The newcomers Yu Changsheng was also very familiar with. One of the leaders was precisely Da Sheng Meng Zhi. The other person Yu Changsheng didn't recognize.
He looked like he should also be from the Da Sheng Clan.
What surprised Yu Changsheng was that Lu Chengfeng, for some reason, was actually among them.
Seeing Lu Chengfeng, Qi Liu San was instantly overjoyed. A helper had finally arrived.
Looking at the others, they were all Da Sheng Clan people. His confidence surged instantly.
"Lu Chengfeng, come over here."
Lu Chengfeng, noticing Qi Liu San, stiffened slightly, but still walked over and stood silently behind Qi Liu San.
Wang Mie, watching from afar, asked in confusion, "Lu Chengfeng? How could he be so obedient to that old man?"
Yu Changsheng briefly explained the reason, which dispelled Wang Mie's confusion.
"Unexpectedly this Lu Chengfeng, a dignified Holy Son, has actually fallen to being someone else's servant. It's truly laughable."
Da Sheng Meng Zhi said, "Qi Liu San, why are you here?"
Qi Liu San said, "How come? You can be here, so why can't I be here?"
Da Sheng Meng Zhi asked, "What did you discover here?"
Qi Liu San directly shook his head: "Nothing was discovered."
"Nothing was discovered?"
Da Sheng Meng Zhi looked around in all directions, also discovering nothing abnormal, only the Hei Ta looked very suspicious.
"Who is that woman beside you?"
Da Sheng Meng Zhi's gaze scanned up and down Leng Xu's body without any restraint, his eyes seeming to want to swallow her whole.
Such a bewitching woman was truly rare; encountering one in a place like this, it was inevitable that some thoughts would arise in a person's heart.
Qi Liu San laughed hee-hee: "I don't know her either; we ran into each other here by chance. If you're interested, you can go ask her yourself."
Da Sheng Meng Zhi's eyes lit up; so she had nothing to do with Qi Liu San.
He immediately stepped forward, arriving not far from Leng Xu, and cupped his fists: "I am Da Sheng Meng Zhi of the Da Sheng Clan's main lineage. May I ask how the young lady is addressed?"
Leng Xu's complexion was bashful; she lowered her head, covered her mouth, and laughed softly, her appearance bewitching yet carrying a trace of pitiful charm, making Da Sheng Meng Zhi's heart burn even hotter.
"This young lady's name is Leng Xu."
"Leng Xu, good name, good name."
Da Sheng Meng Zhi nodded repeatedly, liking her even more.
Qi Liu San at the side felt a chill in his heart seeing this, and became even more vigilant toward this woman.
He had figured it out; this woman was absolutely no ordinary woman, not easy to deal with.
Yu Changsheng and Wang Mie in the distance, who knew Leng Xu's true nature, felt even more pity for Da Sheng Meng Zhi.
"I wonder what understanding Miss Leng has of this place?"
Leng Xu spoke mournfully: "Several of my companions died here; I beseech Young Master to avenge me."
"Died here."
Da Sheng Meng Zhi instantly surged with righteousness, his gaze also turning cold and stern: "Who killed them?"
"They were killed by the Hei Ta."
"Killed by the Hei Ta? Where are their corpses?"
Leng Xu pointed at Qi Liu San: "Their corpses were all destroyed by this old man. I originally wanted to find a chance to bury them. Who would have thought this old man is truly unreasonable; not only did he destroy the corpses of his own several subordinates, he also destroyed my companions' corpses. I also dared to be angry but not speak out."
"I beseech Young Master to decide for me!"
Hearing this, Qi Liu San was instantly shocked pale; this demoness really sold him out at the first moment.
At this moment he also secretly regretted why he did such a thing earlier, instead harming himself.
"You demoness, what nonsense are you spouting?"
"Da Sheng Meng Zhi, don't believe her words!"
Da Sheng Meng Zhi frowned; he wasn't a fool. Qi Liu San's intense reaction obviously already explained that he had a guilty conscience.
"Should I believe your words? Qi Liu San, I still know your character."
"Miss Leng, you say this guy destroyed the corpses; why would he do that."
"The forbidden restriction on the Hei Ta is very dangerous. My people were killed by that restriction. He did it precisely to make you all go send yourselves to your deaths, that's why he deliberately destroyed the corpses."
Da Sheng Meng Zhi instantly flew into a great rage; he didn't expect Qi Liu San to be actually so insidious.
"Qi Liu San, you are so vicious!"
"To actually use such methods against your own people."
Qi Liu San retreated repeatedly; at this time he also had no way to explain himself.
"How would I know the people coming were you? You misunderstood. I didn't intentionally mean to do this to you."
Da Sheng Meng Zhi coldly laughed repeatedly: "Put that way, you also admit you did this."
Qi Liu San hatefully looked at Leng Xu; if not for him, he wouldn't have ended up in such a situation. At this moment he truly, genuinely experienced how terrifying this woman was.
"You're ruthless. Let's go!"
Qi Liu San shouted at Lu Chengfeng behind him, and the two prepared to leave.
Where would Da Sheng Meng Zhi give him this chance? He directly shouted at the people behind him: "Catch them!"
Those few people originally didn't have any good feelings toward Qi Liu San either. Hearing Da Sheng Meng Zhi shout, everyone swarmed forward, surrounding and blocking the two.
Leng Xu watched this, pursed her lips and smiled, watching the two groups of people kill each other.
Qi Liu San ran quickly, looking back from time to time, only to see pursuers getting closer and closer, and angrily cursed: "Da Sheng Meng Zhi, you idiot, you don't even know you're being used."
Hearing these words, Da Sheng Meng Zhi grew even more furious. Qi Liu San actually dared to scold him; no matter what, he absolutely could not let this person go.
A faint purple talisman suddenly appeared in his hand, and he directly threw it out.
The talisman suddenly ignited in mid-air, emitting a gloomy purple fire, rapidly spreading in the air, blowing toward Qi Liu San.
The flames quickly spread across the surrounding ground, trapping Qi Liu San in the center.
"Da Sheng Meng Zhi, I fuck your eldest young master, using Purple Nether Fire to deal with me, isn't that too excessive?"
"That Purple Nether Fire is the Da Sheng Clan main lineage's unique skill. You actually use it against your own people!"
Da Sheng Meng Zhi coldly laughed: "Own people? Relying on you, a foreign clan's running dog, you're also worthy of being my Da Sheng Clan's own people."
Both hands fiercely grabbed, and that purple fire became like giant hands grabbing toward Qi Liu San.
Two flame giant hands grabbed from left and right.
Qi Liu San cursed secretly, threw out a small jade bead, which exploded in mid-air, scattering into a sheet of ice crystal water droplets, blocking the flame giant hands.
But those water droplets only delayed the giant hands for a moment, then they continued grabbing toward Qi Liu San.
This Purple Nether Fire truly lives up to being the Da Sheng Clan's unique skill; its power is extraordinary.
Qi Liu San also had a headache, only able to continue retreating and fleeing.
That pair of giant hands fiercely clapped, stirring up a burst of flames on the ground. Qi Liu San barely dodged, but still got stained with some flames.
The clothes on his body instantly ignited and burned.
These flames seemed to have no temperature, like cold ice, emitting a gloomy cold Qi.
Burning on his body caused no damage whatsoever, but Qi Liu San knew clearly enough.
What this Purple Nether Fire burns is his physical body's foundation; in a short time nothing may be visible.
But given time, it would not only hollow out his magic power, but even hollow out the very foundation of his physical body, until he turned into a desiccated corpse.
This is the most terrifying aspect of the Purple Nether Fire.
Qi Liu San immediately cast a spell to disperse it; this Purple Nether Fire can only be slowly dispersed by borrowing magic power — ordinary means cannot extinguish it at all.
Yet in the midst of battle, how much time could there be for him to disperse the flames?
Qi Liu San could only shout: "Bastard, why don't you hurry up and save me!"
Lu Chengfeng gritted his teeth in hatred, but constrained by that Contract, he could only hurriedly launch an attack at Da Sheng Meng Zhi.
Seeing this, Da Sheng Meng Zhi raised his left hand, separating out a portion of the Purple Nether Fire to block Lu Chengfeng.
The remaining half of the Purple Nether Fire continued chasing and killing Qi Liu San.
It was precisely that missing portion of Purple Nether Fire that revealed a gap, letting Qi Liu San immediately see hope.
With a toss of his hand, he directly hurled out a small crystal sphere, which fell into the flames.
"Explode for me!"
That crystal sphere instantly erupted within the Purple Nether Fire, blasting open a not-large cavity.
Letting Qi Liu San immediately rush through.
Da Sheng Meng Zhi cursed darkly, "Damn it."
Fortunately at this moment the several people behind him also caught up, several of them directly attacking Lu Chengfeng.
The rest continued chasing and killing Qi Liu San.
Qi Liu San was so angry his teeth itched, and could only keep throwing crystal spheres to explode behind him.
These crystal spheres are extremely troublesome to refine; each one consumes a large amount of materials.
They are his life-saving items; with every one thrown out, his heart bled.
But at this critical moment of life and death he could not care about that much, even Lu Chengfeng he couldn't be bothered with anymore, only thinking of fleeing for his life.
And Lu Chengfeng soon also fell into a bitter struggle.
His whole body's skin and flesh split open with many wounds, atop which burned a stretch of Purple Nether Fire.
If not for his physical body having already been cultivated to a terrifying degree, he would likely have been slain long ago.
But that Purple Nether Fire was continuously burning his magic power and stamina, and Lu Chengfeng also realized something was wrong.
Looking again at Qi Liu San, he had already run far away.
This guy also knew that fighting head-on was courting death, and directly surrendered.
And on the other side, Qi Liu San had also already run far away.
Da Sheng Meng Zhi cursing up a storm arrived before Lu Chengfeng and directly gave him a slap.
"You damn plaything, I originally thought since you were Qi Liu San's man I'd take you in, and brought you here."
"Result: you turned traitor first, truly damnable!"
Having lost Qi Liu San in the chase, Da Sheng Meng Zhi was furious beyond measure, pouring all his rage onto Lu Chengfeng.
After a round of punching and kicking, Lu Chengfeng was already beaten covered in wounds, gasping his last breath.
Only then did Leng Xu walk over with measured, leisurely steps, looking teasingly at Lu Chengfeng on the ground.
"Young Master, why get so enraged? Venting your anger on an unrelated person?"
Da Sheng Meng Zhi said hatefully: "Miss does not know, this guy originally got lost here, I encountered him and only then kindly brought him here." (Chapter End)
