Chapter 518 – The Strongest Momentum

Chapter 518 – The Strongest Momentum

Dawnperch Hotel had gone deathly silent. The manager’s hands trembled and his face was like dying embers. He never thought that what was originally a minor matter would develop to such a degree. He opened his mouth, wanting to say that Qin Yu should first release Young Master Qi and they could discuss matters afterwards. But, he was actually forced silent by Qin Yu’s momentum.

Qin Yu stared at the vicious look on Qi Yunshu’s face, a faint expression on his face. He didn’t have any intention of trying to obtain some information from this person. This sort of brainless degenerate was nothing more than a chess piece that someone had tossed onto the board in a probing move. Even if there were some clues, there wouldn’t be any harvests.

He suddenly felt irritated. Qin Yu had overcome the Black Demon Sect, experienced life or death situations in the small world, passed the hurdle of the City Lord Mansion’s investigation, and had even been frightened by two mysterious Calamity Immortals a few days ago. He had gone through so much trouble to arrive where he was today and was about to smoothly enter the Demonic Path, achieving a key step in his plan to take revenge.

So, why did trouble have to happen to him?

Couldn’t people be honest and peacefully live with each other?

The pupils of the three guards immediately shrank. They could feel the cold and callous aura surging from Qin Yu’s body. He actually had thoughts of killing!

“Your excellency, there is no need to be impulsive. Everything today is the fault of my family’s young master; if you can spare his life in benevolence the Qi Family will be deeply grateful!” A guard ran forward, quickly speaking.

Qi Yunshu didn’t think that Qin Yu would actually do anything to him. From birth he was accustomed to being lawless and reckless. He had always thought there were the heavens above and the earth below, and then he himself came in third.

“Brat, you are dead for sure! I guarantee you will die miserably!” Even if his neck was grabbed and it was incomparably difficult to speak and understand, he still spat out these ruthless words with a look of hatred on his face.

Qin Yu suddenly laughed. He was wavering, and now he was overjoyed that he had suddenly found an important reason to come to a smooth final decision.

“Lay down junior-apprentice brother Qi!” A cold and gloomy voice suddenly spoke up. A young cultivator with a slightly blue face suddenly appeared.

Qi Yunshu was ecstatic. “Senior-apprentice brother Ma!” His face filled with excitement, “Hurry and save me! Kill him!”

The complexions of the three guards darkened, feeling worried over the intelligence of their young master. You are still in the hands of another so how can you clamor around like that? Aren’t you afraid he will shake his hand and break your neck?

Ma Yuncong had a calm demeanor and carried himself with the elegance of an expert. He nodded and said, “Junior-apprentice brother, rest assured. As long as I am here, no one can move against you.”

Happiness filled him. He had finished setting the stage with his words. He coldly glanced at Qin Yu and a swift and fierce light flashed in his eyes.

During this period of time, his sect had been struggling for the Qi Family’s support. If he rescued Qi Yunshu, that was sure to be a great merit for him.

You brat, thank you for giving me such an opportunity!

Hum –

A sound wave that couldn’t be heard with one’s ears suddenly exploded through the air. Many people were dazed for a moment before their consciousness fell into darkness.

Although this darkness could only be maintained for an extremely short period of time before it vanished, it caused everyone in the inn to reveal panicked expressions.

“Curtain of Darkness!” A guest suddenly shouted out loud, instantly blowing up the crowd.

An old man who was watching for fun had his indifferent expression swept away, replaced with a dignified look instead. “At such a young age, he actually managed to cultivate the Soul Burial Sect’s supposedly sect-preserving supernatural art, the Curtain of Darkness. This is truly inconceivable.”

“No wonder he is so confident. So he was an expert from the Soul Burial Sect!”

“I heard that when the Curtain of Darkness is cultivated to the highest realm, one can cover a trillion lives and have their souls sink forever into darkness. They will be completely isolated from the outside world, becoming nothing but living corpses without a consciousness!”

“You and I are only suffering the shockwaves coming from this ability, that is why we were able to restore ourselves so quickly. If we were to face this attack directly, I fear we would spend the rest of our lives in bed.”

Everyone sighed with emotion and began to whisper amongst themselves. With the looks of awe directed his way, Ma Congyun’s waist became stiffer. His expression was filled with indifference, but also some pity and helplessness, as if he were silently saying: hey, why did you force me to do this?

In everyone’s eyes, it seemed that this person really did have some famous background and wasn’t taking advantage of his strength to act recklessly. Even if there was a reason for the incident, how could he bear it?

Many young girls looked at Ma Congyun, their eyes sparkling. As long as Little Ma wanted, he could enjoy a free service tonight between their warm bed sheets.

This continued until a cultivator cautiously said, “It looks like Young Master Qi is still being held?” There was a sudden silence all around. Ma Congyun was forced to draw back from the enjoyable atmosphere of attention. He looked towards the man who spoke with a dissatisfied expression. His Curtain of Darkness had already reached small success. As long as a person was struck by him, there was no way they could free themselves.

What was this fellow looking at?

Mm…he really hadn’t let go…could it be that this was the physical memory of his body? Yes…that had to be the reason.

Ma Congyun lightly coughed. “Junior-apprentice brother, you can free yourself now.”

Qi Yunshu’s face nearly turned purple upon hearing this. He cursed in his heart. You bastard, why don’t you come and try it yourself? This hand is like it’s cast from iron, it won’t move at all!

Ma Congyun felt that something was wrong. He took a deep breath and was about to step forward, when a calm voice sounded out from behind him. “Apprentice nephew Ma, step back. You are not a match for this little friend.”

A man walked forwards. His robes were half black and half white, his shoes were half black and half white, and even his hair was half black and half white. Although he had a strange appearance, when one looked at him they couldn’t help but feel a sense of peace in their heart, as if they were seeing some close friend or relative. At this time, this person faintly smiled, his voice calm and temperate. “Little friend, how about letting him go first?”

Qin Yu was silent.

The man’s smile didn’t change. “Today was only a misunderstanding. Everything can be discussed as soon as you let him go. Also…”

“What did you say?” Qin Yu interrupted him.

Daoist Blackwhite paused for a moment. Then he said, “I said that as long as you let him go, we can discuss…”

He was interrupted again.

“Can you repeat that?”

Daoist Blackwhite’s smile became even warmer. “I asked you to let him go.”

Qin Yu nodded. “My apologies, but I was distracted a moment ago so I didn’t hear you clearly.” What he said next was like a strike to the face. “Why should I?”

First he was apologizing and then he suddenly transitioned to this. Was this alright?

Daoist Blackwhite believed that he was skilled in keeping his calm, but right now he was still angered to the point where his eyes twitched and blue veins started popping up on his forehead. If it weren’t for him caring about his status, he would have already started cursing out loud.

He glanced over meaningfully. But, the normally obedient and well-behaved apprentice nephew Ma was actually in an absent-minded state as if he had lost his soul. There was only one thought ringing through his head: he’s fine…he’s completely fine…nothing happened to him…how could he be fine…

Cursing Ma Congyun for being trash, Daoist Blackwhite could only settle things himself. “Little friend, haven’t you heard the saying that anyone can make mistakes, and it is best to forgive them when possible? In this world, there are always people you cannot provoke. Young Master Qi has a valued status. If something happens to him, I fear you won’t be able to leave Heavenly Demon City. Do you want to take things this far?”

Qi Yunshu’s brain lacked oxygen and he started seeing stars. But, he still insisted on speaking out loud, “Elder Blackwhite…don’t talk nonsense with him…kill him…”

The three guards had black lines on their foreheads once more. At this moment, they discovered that as everyone else was looking at their young master, their eyes seemed to be full of pity and concern, as one might look at a child with intellectual disabilities.

This intelligence…

Daoist Blackwhite cursed inwardly. If I had confidence that I could kill him without injuring you, do you think I would still let a brat like you keep on chirping!?

Ma Congyun was already proficient in displaying the Curtain of Darkness. If this boy was completely fine after receiving the attack, it meant that his soul was either tyrannically strong or he had some treasure on his body.

He wasn’t someone who was easy to deal with!

The key point was that he had already come forward today so he had to deal with this matter correctly. Otherwise, let alone being on good terms with the Qi Family, both sides would probably completely break things off.

As Daoist Blackwhite was worried, Qin Yu suddenly said, “I will give you one more chance. As long as Blackwhite can try and suppress me the same way that your apprentice nephew did, I will cup my hands together and let this person go.”

Daoist Blackwhite was too busy to think about the infuriating way Qin Yu had referred to him. He said with joy, “Truly?”

Qin Yu nodded, “Of course.”

“Good! Then I will also use the Curtain of Darkness. I ask for your guidance!” With his words, he already indicated that he regarded Qin Yu as a cultivator on the same level.

Since they were both on the same level, then it was reasonable for him to attack with all his strength.

One couldn’t help but acknowledge that an old fox was an old fox. With a few words, he was able to play such tricks.

The people in Dawnperch Hotel all had strange complexions. This was because Qin Yu’s decision gave off a feeling that he wanted to take this chance to step down and release this person so that they could all reconcile.

This was completely different from the picture he painted with his words before. What happened to his cold indifference and fearlessness of power?

Didn’t he just put on a performance that indicated he wasn’t afraid of killing? So why was he acting like this now?

Tsk tsk. This person didn’t care about face at all. Everyone began to look at him with disdain.

As for how he would step down?

How could things be that simple? As long as Daoist Blackwhite attacked and shook him a couple times, Qin Yu could take this chance to vomit out some blood and say that he was really fierce and they would meet each other in the future. With that, both sides could withdraw.

Daoist Blackwhite was also thinking this in his heart. He looked deeply at Qin Yu, indicating that he understood and that there was no need to worry.

Hehe, brat, do you know where my name of Daoist Blackwhite came from? Clothes, shoes, hair, none of that matters. Being white on the outside and black on the inside, that is the truly profound boundary I have reached.

Today, if you don’t die, how can I be on good terms with the Qi Family? Hoho, just die in peace.

Hum –

There was an invisible hum once more. When people heard this, they felt a brief daze before they recovered. Of course, this wasn’t because Daoist Blackwhite’s Curtain of Darkness was weak, but because he was fully concentrating his power into a single point and only a small amount of its aura was leaking out. As a result, it was even more terrifying.

Qin Yu froze.

Everyone had expressions on their faces as if they had expected this. Now, it was time for Qin Yu to spit out blood. This acting skill was still far from being able to fool them.

But what a pity, while the melon-eating crowd was able to guess what happened at the start, they didn’t anticipate what followed next.

Within Qin Yu’s soul space, the purple moon and Meimei were busily competing for ‘food’. A shivering mass of black mist was immediately divided up.

Qin Yu said, “Is that enough?”

Meimei beamed with joy. “Not bad, not bad, it’s indeed delicious.”

The purple moon’s brilliance dimmed down to its original state. It maintained a cold and lofty posture. Even though it didn’t respond, from its appearance it should be satisfied.

Hu –

His consciousness returned to his body. Qin Yu opened his mouth and slowly said, “The Soul Burial Sect’s Curtain of Darkness lives up to its reputation.” He was speaking truthfully. There wasn't much food that that brat Meimei and the purple moon would both take a liking to.

Daoist Blackwhite’s mind shook but he quickly concealed his disappointment. This boy was actually completely fine. His lips twitched and he barely squeezed out a smile, trying to put on an expression that indicated Qin Yu wasn’t bad at all. “I feel deep admiration towards your strength. Then today…”

Crack –

A clear sound spread out and the entire Dawnperch Hotel fell deathly silent. Everyone’s eyes widened with panic and bewilderment as if they saw a ghost. They looked at Qin Yu and the corpse in his hands which had a neck bent at a ridiculous angle.

Qi Yunshu’s blood-filled eyes were wide. There wasn’t much panic in them, only disbelief, as if he were saying ‘how do you dare kill me?’ before he died. But, Qin Yu did kill him, and this surpassed everyone’s expectations.

If it weren’t for those two vaunted residents in his soul space clamoring for more food, he would have done this long ago. Since there was no need to wait any longer, why continue wasting his time?

Killing this person would surely bring about trouble. At the very least, he would thoroughly offend this so-called Qi Family.

But Qin Yu had his own reasons. Qi Yunshu had come here today in order to draw him out. This could not be unrelated to the demon blood crystal.

Qin Yu had no evidence, but he didn’t need evidence for this, because he would make his own proof. So he killed this person. He would use Qi Yunshu’s death as a warning to everyone that wanted to take advantage of him. He would tell them all that he wasn’t some tofu they could move around. If they wanted to act against him, they would need to be prepared to die.

Perhaps this might be a little impulsive, but Qin Yu had to display his strongest momentum. Because once he flinched, all those sharks around him would reach for a yard after taking an inch.

Once the matter of the demon blood crystal was detected by others, that was when Qin Yu would welcome true destruction.
