Chapter 1368: Addicted to Killing
Chapter 1368: Addicted to Killing
When the third prince received the message, he could not help but grit his teeth and cursed his brother. How dare he touch my people. I will not let you go!
As for why he did not reply after receiving the message, it was simple. Because the special item that he was using to receive messages in Bounded Zero Place was currently being played with by that woman. She was looking at Li Quanji with interest.
An explanation is necessary at this point. The inner and outer areas of Bounded Zero Place were sealed and it was difficult to send messages. It required a special item to do so.
“West Desolate Third Prince, I never thought you had such a noble status. Won’t I be in big trouble for what I am doing to you right now?”
The woman frowned as she looked torn. She seemed to mutter to herself, “I hate trouble the most.”
Li Quanji’s heart almost stopped. Sister, what do you mean by this? Don’t joke! Although I look very strong, my heart is very weak. I cannot take any emotional attacks.
He coughed dryly before forcing a smile, “No, definitely not. It is my biggest honor to know such a beautiful woman. I am extremely heartened and do not dare to feel any dissatisfaction at all.”
The woman looked at him, “You used the word dare very well. But never mind. Even if there is trouble, it is something for the future so we can talk about it later.”
She flipped her hand and kept the messaging item. She spoke, “Lead the way. I heard about the Bounded Zero Place before and I shall now have a look under your lead. Perhaps I will have other things to gain…after all, I am bored and have nothing to do.”
“Ah, you want to go to Bounded Zero Place. Sure, no problem!” Li Quanji nodded rapidly as his eyes glowed.
He will not dare to say anything about the other areas of the fragmented world but Bounded Zero Place is the West Desolate’s territory. As long as they entered, he would be able to find a way to escape.
The woman suddenly spoke, “If I said that I was just joking and I don’t want to go to Bounded Zero Place, would you be very disappointed?”
Li Quanji laughed bitterly, “Whether we go or not is your decision. I have no opinions.” However, he was cursing her in his heart. What a bitch. You better not let me catch you in the future, or I will make you regret it for eternity!
Piak –
With a loud crisp sound, Li Quanji flew out, a red handprint on his face. The five True Saints’ expressions changed. However, they merely stepped forwards one step before stopping.
Because after flying out due to that slap, Li Quanji was pulled back once more. Although there were five clean and delicate fingers around his neck which looked like it should have felt good, they knew clearly what kind of explosive power those beautiful fingers could produce. The two that exploded before this had died under those hands.
The woman was calm, “One day I may become other people’s bitch, but definitely not yours. So don’t ever have such thoughts again in the future or I will make you suffer.”
She put some pressure in those five fingers and Li Quanji’s face bloomed red and he frantically nodded.
Bom –
He was thrown on the ground as the woman stood up, “Let’s go.”
“Yes.”
Li Four Seasons stood back up, smacking the dirt off himself as he turned, “What are you all waiting for, hurry.”
He pretended that nothing had happened but the five red fingerprints were still imprinted on his neck.
The third prince of the West Desolate, who the king favored, was being humiliated but could pretend as if nothing happened…just this point showed that his temperament was not bad.
Of course, the five True Saints knew that the third prince was utterly furious. A dagger hidden within a smile. That sentence was probably describing how the third prince looked like now.
……
Qin Yu was killing people.
More accurately, he was intentionally hunting down the cultivators from that clan as a powerful cultivator from the World of Darkness who could control the Fire of Eternal Night.
He was very successful. Every cultivator screamed that the West Desolate would pay the price before they died.
This was part of Qin Yu’s plan. He would kill cultivators from that clan while he was ‘recuperating’ to reduce their strength as well as create more hate between them.
But as he conducted the massacre, Qin Yu quickly realized that he became addicted.
That’s right. He was addicted to killing.
It was mentioned before that Qin Yu did not mind and did not fear killing others, but he did not like becoming someone whose hands were covered with blood.
But there had been a change as he faced that group. With everyone he killed, he had a sense of enjoyment and his spirits rose. It felt like a burden was lifted and the emotions suppressing him had been thoroughly released.
Kill!
Kill!
Kill!
They deserved to die. All of them deserved to die!
In this state, Qin Yu was extremely dangerous and ruthless. This resulted in severe damage and deaths to that group. They really suffered greatly. It was not as simple as being revived by that group’s secret treasure after dying – these people all had to be placed in the Life Spring and go through a long recovery period before they could be reborn again.
But as mentioned, when they were reborn, they were not exactly their complete self.
To that group, this was equivalent to death.
……
After two of their members met with that fate, they had yet to discover any clues about their opponent, and now he was after them again.
And this time, he did not stop at just two. In a very short time, the number increased drastically. The person was like a crazy killing machine out on a massacre. Moreover, he was extremely brutal and every cultivator he attacked had to be sent to the Life Spring.
The Rites Master was extremely furious as he requested for all the strongest cultivators in the clan to do all they could to catch the killer.
The Clan Leader agreed, but time was needed to send the cultivators to Bounded Zero Place. Before that, they could only send a message into Bounded Zero Place and request for all the clan members to retreat and stay together to minimize the number of deaths and injuries.
It was not only to reduce the number of clan members dying. More importantly, the capacity of the Life Spring was not unlimited. If the number of clan members dying continued to increase rapidly, it would surpass how many the Life Spring could take.
At that time, the entire clan would have to endure the terrifying draw from the Life Spring…that feeling once appeared many years back. But all those that experienced it and still lived till today would never want to go through that a second time.
“Is this the upheaval that has been rumored that our clan will have to face?” The Clan Leader asked slowly, his eyes lit up, “Or maybe, there are some hidden dangers left from what the Rites Master did. But now that I am the clan leader, I will do my best to protect the clan. It doesn’t matter who you are, I will find you and kill you. I will resolve everything!”
……
With the command passed down through the clan, the group that had been frantically chasing rogue cultivators were now running back as fast as possible. They were unable to hide the shock and anger they felt.
This was the first time. Definitely the first time that they had been hunted as one of the strongest groups in Bounded Zero Place.
They heard that numerous clan members had already been severely injured or killed and many of them were sent to the Life Spring. It would take many years before they could awaken.
But none of them wanted to ever enter the Life Spring!
Damn it! Who is the one attacking? Other than those from our own clan, who else could match up to us?
Could it be that the one attacking is from our clan? No, it cannot be! Our clan’s numbers are determined by the heavens. There cannot be more or less unless our clan falls into ruin.
They had to find the killer. If they could not get rid of this person and find out the cause, their clan would never be at peace!
On the small world fragment, Number 327’s face turned ashen because the fury in his heart was burning stronger and stronger and now his fingers were shaking.
Who was it? Who dares to kill my clan and conduct such a massacre! For so many years, their group had never suffered such a huge damage. Moreover, he was the senior in the fragmented area now.
Although the command from the clan did not express any dissatisfaction against him and only instructed the clan members to return and wait for stronger cultivators to enter the fragmented area, this had happened when he was in charge. He would be related to this and no one would care that this had nothing to do with him.
This meant that Number 327 would lose a lot of points and the support he had from the clan would reduce.
Number 418 spoke lowly, “Number 327, what you should do now is to remain calm. Now, the only thing we can do is gather all our members and not give the killer another chance to strike. We have to prevent more deaths. When the strong cultivators from the clan arrive, they will have a way to find the person. We can try to make up for it then.”
Taking a deep breath, Number 327 nodded heavily, “I will find him, I will definitely find him!”
……
“Master, you have to stop. If not, all the effort you put in earlier will be wasted.” Stone Pagoda grumbled loudly. However, he had seen similar things happen multiple times and there was no way to wake Qin Yu.
Because right at this moment, it was like he was possessed. His eyes were blood red and a murderous aura rolled off of him.
In the beginning, Stone Pagoda had felt good when Qin Yu killed the cultivators from that clan. Stone Pagoda’s joy had matched Qin Yu’s then.
So he chose to remain silent. He even provided support when he saw Qin Yu attack to help kill the cultivators more thoroughly.
Of course, to make them suffer more as well.
But now, the situation had changed. The cultivators from that clan were retreating rapidly as if they had noticed something. The number of them on the outside was becoming lesser and lesser.
They had to stop killing or their plan could not continue. Although it was not that there was no more use for it, their initial goal for killing had been achieved.
Moreover, after witnessing the moment when Li Zhouyi called upon the Eye of Eternal Night, Stone Pagoda was afraid that Qin Yu would suffer a similar fate when that clan retaliated.
“Master, stop! Hurry and wake up!”
Qin Yu’s eyes were blood red and he looked crazy and ruthless. He looked up and took a deep breath as if he smelled something left in the air. His lips curled up in a sneer, “I’ve found you.”
Woosh –
He took a big step and moved at a terrifying speed. He disappeared in an instant.
A moment later, he appeared once again like a huge rock dropping from the sky. He stood and blocked two members from that clan. He punched, “Die!”
“Run!”
“Hurry!”
The two cultivators turned and ran. They had received the message and knew that their opponent was too strong. But even if they wanted to run, it was too late. An enormous energy surged from behind them. It rolled towards them like a huge wave!
Bom –
A huge explosion could be heard. The unlucky one got thrown into the air. His body was like an overly-ripe persimmon that exploded in the air.
His flesh and bones tore into numerous pieces and poured down along with his blood. In the next second, the blood gathered together. However, the blood that had just gathered then burst open. It continued to reform and explode four more times before stopping.
The remaining blood, which was less than thirty percent of the original amount, then formed together and disappeared into the air.
“Monster, you monster!” The surviving cultivator was absolutely horrified by what he just witnessed. He slammed a hand to his forehead.
He would rather kill himself than be killed by Qin Yu.
Boom –
At that moment, a horrifying energy fell and surrounded him. Qin Yu’s eyes were bloodshot. He walked over with a menacing smile, “Even if you die, you have to die by my hands!”
