Seeing Yang Qi stop and not continue, Wei Ming couldn't help but feel relieved.
"It's not me who wants to kill you, it's Peng Ying. I can swear a martial arts oath. It was not me who sent Peng Ying to attack you before." Wei Ming looked at Yang Qi and continued, "And it was Peng Ying who instigated me to attack you this time. He said that you were carrying the Yu Emperor Order, so I attacked you. The others were also contacted by Peng Ying."
Faced with a life-and-death situation, Wei Ming sold out Peng Ying without hesitation!
"Um?"
Hearing this, Yang Qi's eyes couldn't help but focus. He originally thought that Wei Ming was the mastermind behind everything, but now it seems that this is not the case!
He and Peng Ying had no grudges, so why did Peng Ying want to kill him? And he even used a treasure that was as powerful as a half-step king
“Oh no!”
When Peng Ying heard Wei Ming's words, his expression changed drastically.
He never expected that Yang Qi would break through at this time and completely crush Wei Ming, forcing Wei Ming to betray him in order to save his life. Yang Qi, who was able to crush Wei Ming, was not someone he could resist.
Therefore, after hearing this, Peng Ying immediately thought of escaping. However, at this moment, he found that he had lost control of the battle formation and was directly imprisoned in the battle formation.
Peng Ying looked at his companions and shouted, "What do you want to do?"
"Peng Ying, you were the one in charge of all this, so naturally you should take the responsibility now!" said a man in the middle stage of eight-star martial arts master calmly.
That’s right, they can indeed fight to the death with Chu Hong and others, but Yang Qi has the strength to easily crush Wei Ming. Even if they really fight to the death, they will die in the end!
Unless it is absolutely necessary, no one would be willing to fight to the death. Peng Ying, the instigator, was naturally abandoned by everyone!
"you… "
Peng Ying opened his mouth, his face full of despair. He knew that he was finished!
Wei Ming looked at Yang Qi and spoke again, "Yang Qi, I can swear a martial arts oath that I will never take the initiative to provoke you again in the secret realm!"
Yang Qi pondered for a moment, and finally nodded and said, "Okay, as long as you swear a martial arts oath, I can let you go!"
Chu Hong and others could risk their lives for him, so how could Yang Qi ignore their lives for his own grudges? Since Wei Ming had already surrendered and Chu Hong and others' lives could be saved, he didn't want to continue to tangle with Wei Ming. And most importantly, he really wanted to know why Peng Ying attacked him!
Phew~
After hearing Yang Qi's words, Wei Ming immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately made a martial arts oath that he would not take the initiative to attack Yang Qi again.
As Wei Ming made a martial arts oath, Yang Qi also made a martial arts oath, and then the other practitioners in Wei Ming's team made martial arts oaths. Obviously, Wei Ming was also worried that Yang Qi would not keep his word. However, he was a villain in vain. In Yang Qi's heart, the lives of Chu Hong and others were much more important than his, Wei Ming!
"Yang Qi, due to our martial arts oath, we cannot take direct action against Peng Ying. You have to do it yourself!" Wei Ming glanced at Yang Qi.
Yang Qi nodded, and with a flash of his body, he came to the imprisoned Peng Ying and said in a deep voice, "You and I are strangers. Why do you want to kill me?"
"I'm not the one who wants to kill you. I'm just following orders." Peng Ying was a bachelor and had no intention of hiding anything, so he spoke directly.
At this moment, Wei Ming on the side started to explain, "The sect that Peng Ying belongs to is a killer organization."
Killer organization
Yang Qi was stunned. There were also killer organizations in Zichen Continent, and some of them even gave birth to powerful warriors at the King of Martial Arts level. The cultivation world where Wei Ming was located was much more powerful than the Zichen Continent, so it was not surprising that disciples from the killer organization entered the secret realm.
"Who wants to kill me?" Yang Qi asked in a deep voice.
Peng Ying heard this, but shook his head and smiled bitterly, "I don't know who it is, but the reward he offered is a Dzi Bead of Faith."
Believe in Dzi beads
Yang Qi raised his eyebrows. The Beads of Faith are treasures of the Church of Light, which can help practitioners increase their chances of breaking through to the Martial King realm. Could it be that the Church of Light is behind this
"As a killer, how could you reveal your employer's information so easily?" Yang Qi raised his eyebrows and looked at Peng Ying coldly.
Killer organizations usually protect their employer's information and will not disclose it even if the mission fails. Now that Peng Ying said it so directly, Yang Qi became a little suspicious.
Hearing Yang Qi's words, Peng Ying smiled bitterly, and then continued, "In fact, for this assassination mission, I was only responsible for the execution. Your situation and even the treasures used to kill you were all provided by the other party. This kind of mission is not recognized by the assassin organization."
"Is there such a thing?"
Yang Qi was stunned when he heard Peng Ying's words. No wonder Peng Ying could easily tell the details of the task. It turned out that this kind of task was not recognized at all.
"There are indeed similar rules." Wei Ming nodded on the side.
The Church of Light!
Yang Qi's eyes focused. If the Church of Light wanted to deal with him, there was no need to conceal it deliberately. After all, let alone Yang Qi, even the Tianjian Sect could not compare to the Church of Light. Behind the other side was a powerful warrior at the Martial Emperor level!
Yang Qi looked at Peng Ying and asked in a deep voice, "Are you sure that the other party is from the Church of Light?"
"No." Peng Ying smiled bitterly and shook his head, and continued, "The other party is a strong man in the Martial King Realm. I can't sense his energy fluctuations at all."
Yang Qi was stunned for a moment, but soon he was relieved. The other party took out a treasure with the combat power of a half-step Martial King, and it was also able to avoid the rules of the secret realm. It would be strange if Peng Ying, an eight-star Martial Lord, could detect it.
Although he couldn't be 100% sure that it was the Church of Light, but the only ones who had a grudge against him and were willing to use such a treasure to kill him could only be the Church of Light!
Although Wu Zhou Academy has a strong foundation, it is impossible to use a treasure like the Bead of Faith to find someone to kill him. After all, Wu Zhou Academy is not owned by Wu Xingkong alone. If there is such a treasure that can increase the impact of the King of Martial Arts, I am afraid that the royal family of the Great Zhou Empire would have used it to cultivate practitioners of their own lineage. Don't forget that although Wu Xingkong also has the surname Wu, he is not a member of the royal family of the Great Zhou!
Yang Qi looked at Peng Ying and said coldly, "Hand over the treasure you got in the secret realm, and I can let you go."
Phew~
Peng Ying couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this. He thought he was dead this time, but he didn't expect Yang Qi to not kill him. He naturally didn't dare to hesitate and quickly handed over the treasures he got in the secret realm, and then left with Wei Ming and his group.
Looking at Peng Ying and the others leaving, Shi Xiu couldn't help but ask, "Junior Brother Yang, are you just going to let him go like this?"
"He is just a killer. With my current strength, it is easy to kill him, but killing him is meaningless." Yang Qi said calmly.
Peng Ying was just doing the work for money, but the real mastermind behind this was the Church of Light. And judging from the fact that the other party approached Peng Ying this time, it was probably the headquarters of the Church of Light that took action! (To be continued)
