Xuanmen Prodigal Son

Chapter 83: Struggle, dead end

Views:

Somewhere in the Wilderness Mountains.

"Teacher, your plan... can it really work?" Qin Yun spat out a mouthful of blood and said to Bai Lao in his spiritual consciousness.

“… This is our last chance to turn the tables! If we don’t do this, we will all die here!”

"But... Teacher, you are so seriously injured. If the other party catches up with you quickly..."

“Hmph! You really underestimate me. When I was at my peak, I could kill even the most powerful cultivator! Although I am already at the end of my strength and my soul is badly damaged, I am temporarily unable to help you conceal your aura and evade tracking... But! I can still create a false image and disturb the enemy’s pursuit!” Old Bai’s voice sounded, “Enough to delay until the plan succeeds!”

Qin Yun took a deep breath and kept moving forward, but he was a little hesitant: "Teacher... really... do you have to do this?"

It's no wonder Qin Yun hesitated. It was because the 'method' that Bai Lao mentioned was too unbearable...

"What? Do you think it's hard? Or are you still unable to let go of that woman named Qin Jiaojiao?" Old Bai sneered, "Don't forget that she was in the hands of that prodigal son for so many days! And the Purple Marquis's Mansion... humph, there are so many beautiful maids. I'm afraid that prodigal son didn't even let Mu Liuling go, so how could he let go of the beautiful woman he got? Maybe it was this woman who leaked the secret, which led to our master and disciple being controlled by that prodigal son everywhere, and ended up like this!"

Qin Yun's face darkened when he heard this. Although what Old Bai said sounded nice, as a member of the Divine Marquis family, he had some bottom line, regardless of his mentality. But what Old Bai wanted him to do was so unbearable...

If he really did that, putting aside other things, the oaths, agreements, and vows he had made to Qin Jiaojiao... would become a joke! His indiscriminate accusations against Qin Jiaojiao that day would become a great irony!

Although it was over, Qin Jiaojiao had been Qin Yun's obsession for more than ten years, and it was already deeply rooted. How could he let it go just like that? In fact, Qin Yun had thought more than once that when he completely defeated Chu Tianxiao and embarked on the road to dominance, he could use the proud attitude of a winner to save this relationship and let Qin Jiaojiao return to his side with a promise... However, if he did what Bai Lao said today and did such an unbearable thing... Then even if he really defeated Chu Tianxiao in the future, he would no longer have the face to see this sister who had given so much for him!

Absolutely... shameless!

For a moment, Qin Yun fell into a violent struggle, but Bai Lao's voice never stopped, and every word was full of temptation.

"If you want to achieve the goal of being a king, you can kill your closest relatives. So what if you abandon a woman who is unfaithful to you?"

"Love is just an obstacle on your road to dominance!"

"Women are nothing but playthings! True love? There is no such thing in the world! Give up your fantasies!"

"She was the one who betrayed you first, why are you still insisting?"

"My little disciple, don't forget how desperate our situation is. It's a matter of life and death. How can you be so hypocritical?"

Qin Yun's footsteps unconsciously stopped as he heard the sound. He half-knelt on the ground with a thud. Countless voices and countless ideas clashed in his mind...

After an unknown amount of time, Qin Yun felt as if a heavy string in his heart had been broken. His expression became ferocious for a moment, and then a firm look gradually emerged on his face: "Teacher... I understand!"

"On the road to becoming a king, I will do whatever it takes! As long as I can rise, as long as I can soar, as long as I can avenge and kill the whole family of that loser! I, Qin Yun... am willing to pay any price, even if it means falling into depravity!"

“Hahahahahaha…”

Hearing this, Bai Lao was overjoyed: Success... Finally success! Thanks to that prodigal son, my little disciple suffered a series of blows. Otherwise, I would not be able to break his defense so easily at this moment...

The final result is only one step away!

As long as we survive this most dangerous "special period"... the "unparalleled weapon" will be in my hands!

When he thought that a certain 'unparalleled weapon' was about to be born in his hands, Bai Lao almost couldn't suppress the ecstasy in his heart, but soon he regained his composure and comforted Qin Yun.

"My little disciple, just think it through. Don't worry, when you rise, you can have as many women as Qin Jiaojiao as you want! Even... if you don't forget our old love, I can give her a seat. Don't forget that you have great fortune, how can you have only one woman!"

"...Yes." Qin Yun gritted his teeth and spoke without hesitation, "Teacher, I saw that woman before and she seemed to have fallen into a dense forest, but now it has been so long, she should..."

“Don’t worry. If she is hit head-on by the Blood Wing King’s ultimate move, even if she is a strong person in the upper realm of Soul Enlightenment and has the life-saving trump card given by her master, she will definitely suffer heavy damage! She can’t get far!” Bai Lao’s soul covered the surrounding area. “There are only two caves around that can barely hide people. One of them is too small. Let’s go to the other one!”

"But before that... we still have to go to our previous shelter and get the spare Sumeru Ring."

Qin Yun nodded: "Well, the teacher is still cautious, otherwise I'm afraid I won't even have the capital to turn the tables..."

"… Hehe, a cunning rabbit has three burrows. I have been in the vast land of China for so many years and have been in danger countless times. With so many experiences and lessons, how could I not have some tricks up my sleeve?"

"But little disciple, you have to hurry up!"

"...Yes." Qin Yun heard the voice and immediately followed Bai Lao's instructions. He used his body skills and shuttled through the nearby woods like a cheetah. He didn't know how many branches he stepped on and broke before he found the cave where he had rested before. He took out an orange Xumi Ring from it, and then used his body skills again, getting closer and closer to a natural cave.

"This is it!" Bai Lao's voice sounded immediately, but with a hint of joy, "My little disciple! You are so lucky! This woman... seems to be healing with some kind of secret method of tortoise breathing, and she knows nothing about what is happening in the outside world! Now is a good time to implement the plan..."

The corners of Qin Yun's mouth twitched slightly, and a trace of struggle inevitably appeared on his face, but soon, recalling the nightmare-like oppression from Chu Tianxiao, he gritted his teeth, his will became firm again, and he jumped into the cave.

Bai Lao's voice sounded: "Little disciple, go up and heal her first."

Qin Yun nodded and walked forward. He saw a stone bed carved out by a sword in the cave. Although it was not very neat, it was still usable. A graceful figure was lying on the stone bed, with eyes closed and eyebrows furrowed. Her expression was full of pain, and beads of sweat dripped from her forehead, soaking her clothes.

"Gurgle..."

Being able to become the saint of the fifth-grade sect Mengling Sect, she is naturally incomparable to ordinary women in the mortal world. It doesn't seem so from a distance, but when Qin Yun looked closely at the beautiful woman lying on the stone bed, he couldn't help swallowing his saliva. For a moment, he actually felt a sense of inferiority...

If it was him in the past, he would not have such thoughts, which shows that Chu Tianxiao's successive blows have made him lose a lot of confidence...

"My little disciple, what are you still hesitating about?"

Hearing this, Qin Yun's expression cleared up. He gritted his teeth, walked forward, lifted Xu Qingya's head, then took out a healing pill from the Xumi Ring and fed it to her.

"Alas... What a pity, this elixir has not been refined yet. Taking it rashly will greatly damage your future growth potential. Otherwise, my little disciple, you can take it yourself, so why would you bother with so much trouble..." Old Bai sighed and said, "Wait a moment, let the medicinal properties take effect."

Qin Yun nodded and stood aside waiting. After a while, Xu Qingya's frown eased a little, and Bai Lao's voice sounded at this time.

"Very good. At least in the short term, this woman will not die from her injuries."

"Next... My little disciple, take out the red jade bottle from the Sumeru Ring."

Qin Yun's eyes flashed with a look of struggle, he gritted his teeth, did as he was told, opened it, and saw a pink pill rolling in the jade bottle. He knew what it was after just one sniff, but he couldn't remember the specific name. And this medicine seemed to be a little unusual...

"This is the Mantis Spring Pill!"

After these words fell, Qin Yun's expression changed drastically, and Bai Lao's laughter rang out: "Hey, go ahead, little disciple!"

"That prodigal thought he had us trapped in a dead end and could kill us at any time. Little did he know that I could set up a real dead end for him with a counterattack!"

Qin Yun's face twitched one last time, and then the shadow of Qin Jiaojiao in his mind shattered into countless pieces! He held his head and shouted angrily, and before he could react, he walked straight forward, stuffed the pill into Xu Qingya's mouth, and forced her to swallow it!
