Chapter 27: The Bloodstone Ancestor
"Right, send the Heart Devouring Powder to harass that dog for a bit. Hehe, must eliminate him before the Middle Grade Spirit Stone is depleted." Ye Qing instructed the powder in the Qing Ye world with his divine sense: "Powder, go, sneak attack that dog!"
Fen'er quietly left the Qingye world, shaking her head and squatting at Ye Qing's feet to rub against him, how embarrassing, that Bloodstone King was also a bit too ugly!
Ye Qing, in order to cover for Fen Er, casually grabbed a handful of low-grade flame talismans and wind blade talismans and threw them over. Fen Er took advantage of the opportunity, immediately stuck a light yellow flame talisman on herself, and shot onto the body of the Bloodstone Great King. With a slight dip of her head, she drilled inside.
The Bloodstone Emperor felt a sudden numbness at the back of his neck, but he didn't pay attention to it, thinking that some bold and presumptuous mosquito was disturbing him.
Fen'er entered the body of Bloodstone Dàwáng, her past experience of sneak attacks told herself that destroying the enemy's meridians must be swift, the higher the cultivation of the enemy, the shorter the time to discover and force out one's own.
The pink worm had quietly crawled to the vicinity of the Bloodstone King's heart meridian, opened its small mouth and began to frantically bite and chew. The Bloodstone King's entire energy was focused on commanding the Symbolic Treasure, his mind fixed on quickly beheading the yellow-skinned monkey to avenge his own disfigurement and blindness. Suddenly, he felt an intense pain in his heart, and thus divided out a strand of divine sense to investigate, discovering that there was an extremely small pink insect treating his heart as a feast. The Bloodstone King's single eye widened, and he immediately divided out 20% of his spiritual energy to envelop the audacious little creature, slowly pulling it out of his body.
Ye Qing took one look at the Bloodstone Emperor's expression and knew that Fen'er had succeeded, of course he wouldn't let go of this great opportunity in front of him. He immediately went crazy absorbing the spiritual energy from the two mid-grade spirit stones which weren't much left, those two blocks of mid-grade spirit stones finally turned into a pile of powder.
Ye Qing threw out another low-grade talisman, then wielded the black, heavy-looking knife sheath hammer, opening up his Shape-Shifting Technique to deceive and get close to the Bloodstone Great King's side, where he smashed down with a flurry of powerful blows.
The Bloodstone Emperor had just forced the powder out of his body and was about to destroy it when a flurry of hammer shadows suddenly came crashing down. The Bloodstone Emperor frantically used his arms to block several times, instantly followed by several sharp, ear-piercing cracking sounds. The Bloodstone Emperor secretly regretted that he had been so careless as not to even release a protective aura shield, and was not only ambushed by the opponent's spiritual insect, but also beaten to a pulp with just brute force.
Ye Qing's unbridled and lawless attack, the Bloodstone King's body had at least a dozen broken bones, finally kneeling to the ground. Ye Qing lightly tossed out a mid-grade Wind Blade Symbol, "Ka Cha" sound, the Bloodstone King's ugly head was finally beheaded, "Dong" sound, fell to the ground, the ugly blood hole on his neck, instantly spouting several meters high of hot blood.
Ye Qing's spiritual power was almost exhausted at this time, and his whole body went soft, causing him to slump to the ground. The Kitchen God Treasure Knife, now freed from its spirit, returned to its scabbard and burrowed into Ye Qing's dantian to warm and nourish itself. All around, the broken walls and rubble still floated in mid-air, along with a single, restored green symbol that shone brightly.
Ye Qing waved his hand and the kitchen knife talisman flew into his hand. He casually tossed it into the Green Leaf World.
At this time, Ni Jinyou and the only young man with a fox-fur waistband still alive on the scene were both stunned. There was such a fierce duel in the world, and today they finally witnessed it. The young man with the fox-fur waistband had already put life and death aside, as if this wonderful fight had given him some enlightenment. Although he was just a first-level Qi-refining cultivator, he couldn't understand much, but after all, he had gained some insight, that kind of "hearing the Tao in the morning and dying in the evening" feeling.
Ye Qing looked at the young man with a fox-fur wrapped around his waist coldly and said, "Your master is dead, shouldn't you be avenging him?"
The young man with the fox fur wrapped around his waist suddenly knelt down on both knees, gave Ye Qing three loud kowtows and said: "Benefactor, please accept my three bows. I, Tie Mu, once swore an oath that whoever can help me kill this evil person who ruined my wife's reputation will be my benefactor!"
Actually, Ye Qing had already started to look at this young man favourably when he heard him called Tie Mu, and surprisingly there really were people with the surname Tie, originally thinking that Tie Niu's surname was something he had randomly come up with.
Of course, this alone is not enough to make Ye Qing trust him. Just as Tie Mu was knocking his head and calling out for mercy, the fan system had already sent over two fan points. Moreover, Tie Mu's fan orb was so pure that it seemed his heart should be very good, quite suitable for entering the Divine-level Trash King Fan System.
Ye Qing said enthusiastically: "Tie Mu brothers, get up quickly, let me introduce you, that is my friend Nie Jinyou, you first hug and recognize each other, I need to meditate to recover my spiritual power now, you just guard the law for me!"
Among the yellow sand-surrounded broken walls and ruins, there were three people sitting cross-legged, with only two of them having their eyes open.
When the first ray of dawn gently sprinkled on the three people's faces, Ye Qing suddenly opened his eyes, and the spiritual power in his body had recovered as before. The desert morning was even more like a morning.
Three people walked out of the ruined Loulan Inn, and Ye Qing unceremoniously brought all the camels and goods outside into the Green Leaf World.
Tie Mu was stunned, his eyes wide with amazement at Ye Qing's concession, which had now reached the point of worship. But Ye Qing didn't explain, and Tie Mu wouldn't be foolish enough to ask questions.
Ye Qing was very satisfied with Tie Mu's wit and calmly said: "What are your plans now, Brother Tie Mu?"
Tie Mu said somewhat dazedly: "Since I was humiliated and left home, I made up my mind to pretend to be friendly with the Bloodstone King that scoundrel. My life goal is to find an opportunity to kill him. Now that my great revenge has been avenged, for a moment, I also lost direction in life! Right, this time I followed that evil person, I received an invitation from the Skull Association, and accompanied that evil person to a blind date."
"Blind date? Who's the girl?" Ye Qing raised an eyebrow and asked.
"Miss Wang Mengxian, they say is the daughter of the Skull Union leader," said Tie Mu with a snort. "Rumor has it that she's been betrothed to the Bloodstone King since childhood, but I reckon it's just to curry favor with Old Man Bloodstone!"
Ye Qing suddenly said: "Bloodstone Ancestor? Not good, we immediately retreat, quickly!"
Ye Qing casually knocked out Nie Jinyou and Tie Mu, threw them into the Green Leaf World, and then set fire to the Loulan Inn. Then, he took out the Kitchen God Treasure Knife and flew wildly towards the depths of the desert.
After a whiff of fragrance, a middle-aged scholar with a pale face and no beard floated gently down onto the ruins of the Loulan Inn. His heart was filled with doubts - how could the once prosperous Loulan Inn have become so dilapidated? Had something happened to Young Master? If so, as his personal bodyguard, he would be unable to escape blame.
That middle-aged scholar couldn't help but secretly regret it, if he hadn't gone to see the Desert Flower with ulterior motives, perhaps he would have caught up with the young master long ago.
The middle-aged scholar, with some pain, took out a restoration talisman, steeled himself, and recited the incantation. Very quickly, the scene from before appeared in front of him. When he saw that Tiemu had mistaken someone else for his master, and that young man casually set fire to something, turning two living people into nothingness, the middle-aged scholar was already certain that Young Master was in trouble.
He immediately followed Ye Qing's direction of disappearance, turned into a white light, and flew away quickly. After flashing a few times at the horizon, he disappeared without a trace.
Two hours later, the middle-aged scholar finally let out a sigh of relief. The divine mark he had placed on Tie Mu's body could now be sensed, but what puzzled him was why he hadn't discovered it earlier when he was chasing after him, and yet suddenly detected it now, with the target being behind him to his side.
The middle-aged scholar was also a decisive person, things that couldn't be figured out would immediately be decided not to think about anymore, and instead he would immediately fly back, this time he must first catch the traitor Tie Mu.
Soon, the middle-aged scholar flew over a small sand dune, where three young men were sitting and resting below.
Those three people were naturally Ye Qing and the others. Tiemu suddenly stood up and said, "Blood General, the young master who humiliated my wife has already been killed by me. You can now take my head to collect your reward!"
"Ha! You think you can? Blood Ancestor is currently in seclusion, and he has sworn an oath that he will not come out until he reaches the middle stage of Building Foundation. But once he comes out, no one will be able to claim the reward, because we'll all be dead for killing his only direct grandson!"
Tie Mu murmured: "Blood General, what should we do then?"
Xue Tongguan smiled cruelly and said: "This matter is simple, as long as we say that the Bloodstone King is not dead, our lives will be temporarily safe!"
Tie Mu shook his head and said: "I don't understand, the Bloodstone Emperor is already dead and can't die again!"
A pair of cold eyes stared cruelly at Ye Qing, "Now our lives are tied to this kid's, what's your name? It's hard for you to have achieved the seventh layer of Qi training at such a young age!"
Ye Qing is now extremely nervous, wondering what kind of evil he has committed. On this day on earth, he encountered so many cultivators, and this white-faced scholar, Blood General, had a terrifying cultivation of 13 layers of Qi Refining. However, Ye Qing estimated that he must have consumed the Divine Tear Dan to achieve such a terrifying cultivation. He then said: "I am Ye Qing, please enlighten me, senior!"
Tie Mu was still puzzled and shook his head, but Xue Zongguan didn't bother to explain further. Instead, he looked at Ye Qing with a profound gaze and said: "Don't try to flatter me, it's useless. I only managed to reach the 13th layer of Qi Refining because I consumed the Divine Tear Dan, which allowed me to tap into my future potential. You can call me Blood Brother or Blood General, but now you must agree to two things for me, otherwise, you can go die!"
Yeh Ching saw that he did not immediately intend to fight with him, so he said even more respectfully: "Elder brother please speak, whatever Yeh can do, he will certainly not decline!"
Xue Zongtang coldly smiled: "It's difficult! The first thing, before tomorrow's sunrise, reach the cultivation of Qi Refining 8th layer. The second thing, disguise yourself as Young Master and attend the Skull Union's wedding!"
Ye Qing heard that these two things, his heart became even more determined, for others, it's as difficult as climbing to heaven to advance one level in a day, but for himself, who had already reached the seventh layer of Qi Refining and was fully accomplished, it wasn't entirely impossible!
