Chapter 680B – I Won’t Die

Chapter 680B – I Won’t Die

The night was cool and serene. The skies were covered in thick clouds, blocking out the bright moonlight. It was so dark that it was difficult for a person to even see their fingers in front of their face. After moving stones for a day and undergoing a massive celebratory feast, all of the villagers were drained of strength and the village was unusually peaceful.

In this auspicious atmosphere, Qin Yu brought Big Pig and walked out of the Zhou Family home. He looked up at the vast and boundless mountain range, a cold light gleaming in his eyes.

Tonight, he had to do something that was completely unlike tonight’s peaceful atmosphere.

The blood-eye ink snake vowed that it would kill Qin Yu to cleanse its shame. But, it didn’t know that Qin Yu had already decided to stamp out the great snake and prevent any future troubles from popping up. He couldn’t allow the great snake to recover and return to the village to cause trouble. If it did, not only would his status be exposed but this entire village would suffer total annihilation.

Since Qin Yu had decided to kill it, it was best to take its life while it was down. Thus, he didn’t delay even a single day before going back into the mountains.

Under the shroud of darkness, the mountains were completely different from in the daytime. The monsters and evil creatures were freed of their imprisonment and could walk wherever they pleased. Besides incomparably formidable cultivators, no one dared to traverse these mountains at night.

So, not long after leaving the village, Qin Yu and Big Pig were locked onto by several cold pairs of eyes. A yin chill wove together in the darkness and the rank smell of blood filled the air.

Finally, a hungry black-spotted leopard couldn’t help it anymore and took the lead. Its powerful hind legs crushed the ground and it shot forth like an arrow, biting down at Qin Yu’s neck.

Big Pig squinted his eyes and watched on, like a true expert that didn’t deign to take action. He thought, what a bunch of trash. You dare to attack Qin Yu? That is no different from courting death!

When it came to Qin Yu who had restored his cultivation, Big Pig was confident that he could sweep away this entire mountain range with a casual flick of his finger.

But when the leopard came closer and closer and Qin Yu still hadn’t moved, Big Pig’s eyes widened. He looked at Qin Yu in a daze.

Shit, don’t tell me that your cultivation hasn’t been restored yet! Although a mighty Pig Lord like me is heroic, brave, and also incomparably strong, I can’t beat up this pack of beasts!

With his body shaking, Big Pig cried out loud and rushed forward. Although he personally wanted to choke Qin Yu to death, he couldn’t watch on helplessly as Qin Yu was torn to shreds on the scene, otherwise they would both die together.

But the expected collision didn’t occur. The threatening leopard fell down from the air and plopped to the ground, all of its aura gone.

What happened?

Big Pig was stunned. Could it be that this leopard was killed by his incomparably handsome good looks and dashing demeanor? I truly am fierce!

Buzz –

Buzz –

A deep thundering rumble came from above and even space seemed to tremble. Big Pig looked up and then cursed out loud before running away.

From behind, there were the pitiful screams and roars of monster beasts echoing in the air. Big Pig turned to see the swarm of ants flying over them like endless locusts. Wherever they went, monster beasts would die and not even their bones would be left behind. Even the leopard was cleanly eaten up.

Qin Yu waved his hand. The ant swarm howled towards him and slowly revolved around him.

Big Pig’s face was as pale as ash. Where did this terrifying swarm of ants come from? This brat Qin Yu, how many hidden cards did he still have in his hands?

Qin Yu turned his hand and took out a shattered scale. This was left behind from last night when the blood-eye ink snake was wounded. He said in a low voice, “Find this big snake and kill it as fast as possible!”

Buzz –

The sounds of beating wings filled the air and the ant swarm shot into the skies, soaring into the distant mountains. With the abilities of the purpleback bluewing ants, as long as they knew the aura of the blood-eye ink snake then there would be nowhere left for it to run.

Qin Yu gave Big Pig a kick, ordering it to lay down. Then, he sat on Big Pig and waited with closed eyes. The monster beasts here had just been slaughtered and the aura of the purpleback bluewing ants had yet to disperse. There wouldn’t be any monster beasts that dared to come near here.

Soon, one could hear thunderous sounds from within the mountains. From far away, one could hear the shocked and angered roars of the blood-eye ink snake. But soon these roars became increasingly filled with fear and horror, and they gradually died down until they completely vanished.

Big Pig trembled. Without a doubt, that powerful otherworldly great snake had died without even its bones left behind!

The ant swarm returned triumphantly with almost no losses or damage. Qin Yu used his thoughts to praise them. At the same time, he obtained all of the treasures that the ant swarm had dug out from the snake’s dwelling. There was more than he imagined, and they were also of good quality.

After spending some time appraising everything, Qin Yu smiled. He took out several things and kept them with him, giving the rest to the ant swarm to look after. Once these treasures were digested, he should be able to restore some of his body’s strength.

The next day, a villager said that deep at night, he could hear the loud cries of a snake.

If it was one person it might just be a dream, but if everyone said the same thing it was clearly real.

Thus, a legend was eventually born. It was said that a great monster beast wanted to cause trouble and desired to attack Wali Village. But, it was eventually suppressed by the mountain god. This story would spread down through generation after generation in this land.

After relieving this hidden danger and also harvesting a great number of treasures, Qin Yu was in a good mood. Before he left his room, he took the medicinal herb on the table with him.

This medicinal herb was called ash line grass. Because of the companion spirit grass, it had also received the light of the little blue lamp for three nights, and its appearance had undergone an immense change.

The light gray stem and leaves now had faint silver textures appearing on them. They were like meridians, extending all the way to the roots and emitting a light fragrance that invigorated the spirits.

This ash line grass already surpassed the category of a top medicinal herb and was now a spiritual item that could benefit a cultivator. Moreover, because it had absorbed a massive amount of the little blue lamp’s light, it had an extremely potent effect.

Breakfast had been served at the dining table. When Qin Yu took out the ash line grass, A’li was left stunned. She cried, “Where did you find that?”

Qin Yu had a blank expression. “On the edge of the grazing pasture; I accidentally found it when I was getting water. I thought it was similar to the medicinal herbs I ate before so I conveniently plucked it. Is there something wrong?”

Accidentally discovered…conveniently plucked…

A’li had no idea what she should say. Perhaps people in other villages might not know the value of this ash line grass, but everyone in Wali Village knew about it.

More than a hundred years ago, a villager had once picked up such a treasure. By relying on this ash line grass, not only was the entire family able to leave the mountains, but their two sons were received as disciples by immortals.

In the rumors it was said that the immortals stated that whoever could find this type of ash line grass could be received as a disciple.

With this ash line grass, A’li could immediately realize her dreams of leaving the mountains and becoming the disciple of immortals. Her face flushed red with excitement.

“A’li, you cannot want something so precious!” The old man suddenly said.

The light in A’li’s eyes faded away. She took a deep breath and said, “Grandfather is right. Qin Yu, since you found this ash line grass it is yours. With it, you can change your own destiny and have a bright future!”

The old man had a gratified expression. He shouted at Qin Yu, “Hurry and put that away! Don’t you understand the truth of not exposing your wealth? In two days, I will accompany you to Kun City. Something so good like this can only be sold for its appropriate price in such cities.”

Qin Yu shook his head. “I have eaten many of A’li’s ash line grass so it’s natural for me to compensate her with this. And there is no need to worry old sir, because I already know its value. But, I think these mountains are good and I have no intention of leaving for the time being, unless you want me to continue staying here and eating and sleeping for free.”

A’li looked up, her face full of disbelief. He…he actually…

The old man had a serious look. “Young Qin, it’s better for you to put that away and make a decision later.”

Qin Yu lifted A’li’s hand and gave her the ash line grass. “A’li, starting from today this is yours. You can deal with it however you like.

“I’m full now. It’s about time for me to herd the sheep. Old sir, when I return I hope that I can taste your secret collection of tea!”

The old man’s lips quivered. He drew in a deep breath and said, “Good…good…I will prepare the tea and wait for you to return.”

Qin Yu smiled and quickly herded the sheep away.

A’li looked at his back and then at the ash line grass in her hands, her expression complex.

The old granny hugged her and started to cry. But, her face was full of smiles. Her granddaughter’s wish could finally be achieved!

The old man said, “A’li, no matter what type of person you become in the future, you must always remember that it is all given to you by this young man Qin Yu!”

After a short pause, he stood up. “A’li, come with me to my room. There is something you must agree to before you can use this ash line grass.”

After leaving the village, Qin Yu’s mood was even more wonderful having solved another problem. He flung his whip with a loud crack. “Everything is developing in a good direction and it will become even better in the future. I won’t die…I definitely won’t…”

Beneath the bright sun, his lips curved up in a smile. Within his dark and profound eyes, what was hidden there was an unshakeable faith!
