The Sixteenth Pursuit

  Chu Jiu Yin's idea was good, but the result was not as expected, because he underestimated the greed of human hearts. Those who dared to have designs on the Qilin clan at this time were extremely bold, so how could they retreat due to Chu Jiu Yin's small threat?

  In the face of Candle Nine's threat, not only did these people not retreat, but instead it stirred up their murderous intentions. What's the big deal about one person dying? They're not Kunpeng, and when they decided to take down the Qilin clan, they had already put their heads on the line. Everyone was thinking of staking their lives on this gamble.

  In fact, the ones who dared to challenge the Qilin clan's dominance were numerous gangs. The Kunpeng and the person killed by Jiuyin in the past were just lone rangers, not worth mentioning. The real big shots are those hidden gangs, they are the main force.

  These gangs may not be a match for the Qilin clan, but they are different for a lone swordsman like Shang Yijin. These people had already made contact before taking action, and after seeing Shang Yijin's actions, they quickly reached a consensus: kill!

  These people had thought of all sorts of situations before the Kirin clan's mastermind, and they also had arrangements for the situation where Jiu Yin stole the treasure.

  Suddenly someone in the crowd shouted loudly: "Little thief, leave your treasure behind! How dare you provoke the master of the Qilin clan, Zhao? You don't know how to live!"

  The man spoke and rushed towards Zhu Jiu Yin to kill him. As soon as his voice came out, he quickly attracted the attention of the Qilin clan on the battlefield. The people of the Qilin clan charged towards Zhu Jiu Yin with their lives, while the bastard who had just shouted hid behind the crowd.

  They are obviously trying to use the Qilin clan's hands to deal with Xuanjiu Yinyang, and when both sides have suffered a double loss, they will clean up the remaining mess.

  When he saw that happen, Chu Jiu Yin suddenly understood that he had been schemed against by others, and those who were behind the scenes manipulating the Qilin Clan's treasury were actually his own people.

  To know that on this battlefield, there are not only three tribes, but also countless scattered cultivators, all of whom want to take advantage of the war to make a fortune. When they heard that someone had stolen the treasure trove of the Qilin tribe, it was naturally an unprecedented frenzy, and they rushed towards Zhu Jiuyin in a frenzy.

  In an instant, the situation spiralled out of control, exceeding Chu Jiu Yin's expectations. Faced with the thousands, tens of thousands of people surging towards him, Chu Jiu Yin hated that scoundrel to his very bones.

  Jiuyin also wanted to learn from Kunpeng's swift escape, but under the current circumstances, he simply couldn't do it because the people rushing up were just too many, not giving him a chance to activate his divine powers.

  Under such circumstances, Jiu Yin can only evade and escape. If he engages in a head-on battle, even if he can kill hundreds or thousands of people, he will ultimately exhaust himself to death here. Therefore, he needs to lure these bastards out of the battlefield, only then can he have a glimmer of hope for survival.

  Fortunately, Jiu Yin's body was strong and his escape speed was very fast. He also saw the opportunity early, so he didn't let these bastards surround him. At this time, a strange phenomenon appeared on the battlefield: Jiu Yin was running in front, and behind him was a large group of people chasing after him.

  Those greedy ones shouted from behind the candle nine yin: "Young man, stop quickly and hand over the treasure, I'll spare your life!"

  Upon hearing these shameless words, Zhu Jiu's heart was filled with extraordinary anger, and he couldn't help but curse loudly: "You're truly a group of things that don't know life or death! If you'd stayed on the battlefield and not come out, I wouldn't have dared to do anything to you, after all, I had to consider the power of the three clans. You bastards dare to chase me far away from the battlefield? There's only one path for you - death! I'll use your blood to intimidate the world!"

  The battlefield of the three clans' decisive battle was vast, but with Zhu Jiu Yin's cultivation, he could escape from the battlefield in just a few breaths. Although his actions had attracted many people's attention, only some ordinary masters were paying attention to him. The top masters did not notice Zhu Jiu Yin, a Mahayana Golden Immortal, and in their eyes, he was nothing more than a slightly larger ant.

  It was also because these people underestimated Jiu Yin that they allowed Jiu Yin to escape this disaster, which is also a testament to Jiu Yin's good fortune.

  Those who were chasing Candle Nine didn't notice the small trick he had hidden, and those who were plotting against him also didn't realize that they themselves were getting farther and farther away from the battlefield.

  Perhaps some people noticed it, but on the contrary, they thought that this would make their chances of getting the treasure even greater, and under the temptation of greed, they lost their vigilance.

  After gradually moving away from the battlefield, Chu Jiu Yin's footsteps finally slowed down. Soon, this group of shameless people surrounded him. For these shameless people, Chu Jiu Yin would naturally not show mercy. With a thought, his body emitted endless killing intent. The killing intent was so strong that it changed the color of the sky, and the destructive forces wrapped around him, making him look like a demon god descending upon the world from afar.

  "Only listen," Candle Nine said coldly, "Destruction descends upon the world, opening up heaven and earth!"

  As the ninth drink fell, a destructive aura gathered in his hand, transforming into a black giant axe. The moment the axe was formed, it turned into a flash of lightning that struck down at this group of shameless people. As the axe fell, an endless stream of destructive aura poured down like a torrential rain, and in an instant, all these pursuers were engulfed by this endless destruction.

  These people who came to kill Zhu Jiu Yin under the temptation of interests did not think that Zhu Jiu Yin would turn around and deal such a ruthless hand, in their eyes they only thought that Zhu Jiu Yin had already become a loser, unfortunately they were wrong, and it was a big mistake. Under just one encounter, these unprepared and shameless people died or were injured in large numbers, under the destructive aura, those with slightly weaker cultivation were killed until their souls flew away.

  Those dark and sinister bastards couldn't help but take a cold breath when they saw this situation, although they had seen Candle Nine Yin's great battle with Kun Peng and had an understanding of his cultivation. However, they never thought that Candle Nine Yin would be so formidable, nor did they think that he would be so ruthless and leave no room for retreat, killing thousands of people with a single strike. Although they were prepared, at this moment, a thought arose in their hearts: could they really kill this evil god and snatch the treasure from his hands?

  Under the blow, those demons and monsters that followed behind also felt a chill in their hearts. For a time, no one dared to take another step forward, nor did anyone dare to utter any more arrogant words to ask Candle Nine Yin to hand over the treasure of the Qilin clan. The blow from Candle Nine Yin was so powerful that it intimidated all the evil spirits, what kind of majesty and killing intent was this?

  Seeing no one dared to step forward, Zhu Jiu Yin coldly snorted and said: "You bastards aren't trying to snatch the treasure from me? How come no one dares to step forward now? You have such little guts yet dare to come looking for trouble with me. Truly ignorant of your own mortality! Since you've all come today, then stay behind. It's fitting that I eliminate evil demons like you and carry out justice on behalf of the heavens, killing you bastards to give the multitude of lives in the Hong Huang a chance at survival!"

  As soon as Jiǔ Yīn's words came out, they immediately ignited the anger of this group of people. If it were to be said that these shameless rascals had to face Jiǔ Yīn alone, not one of them would have dared to step forward. But now the situation was different - they had a crowd, and as the saying goes, "with many people comes great strength". They could mutually bolster each other's courage.

  Just then, someone in the crowd shouted: "Don't be afraid, everyone! This son of a bitch is alone, but we have tens of thousands of people. Let's work together to wipe out this arrogant bastard and divide the treasure equally!"

  As soon as he finished speaking, the crowd immediately came to their senses from their previous shock, and they all thought to themselves: "Yes! What do we have to be afraid of? This bastard is alone, while we are tens of thousands times more than him. Killing him would be as easy as turning over one's hand!"

  However, what they didn't know was that there was a person in the crowd who had been arranged by someone to create trouble for Candle Nine at critical moments. When Candle Nine had settled those scattered warriors, this person would reignite everyone's greed, letting them follow their intentions and fight Candle Nine to the death.
