The moment Qin Yu stopped in his tracks, countless thoughts flashed through his mind. He intentionally revealed a look of fear and panic on his face, but it was quickly covered by calmness.
Qin Yu turned around slightly and looked directly at Lu Yuhan. Although she was wearing a white veil, Qin Yu could imagine the coldness on her breathtakingly beautiful face under the veil.
Lu Yuhan quietly looked at Qin Yu. Her lively eyes did not show any emotion, but in the depths of her pupils, there was a murderous intent, trembling, anticipation, and a hint of throbbing.
A woman's intuition was very frightening. Lu Yuhan recognized Qin Yu at first glance. Although she was curious about the injuries on Qin Yu's body, she was not surprised. In her opinion, it would be easy for Qin Yu to recover from his injuries.
When she recognized Qin Yu, Lu Yuhan was waiting for Qin Yu to speak. However, she did not expect that Qin Yu did not seem to recognize her.
Lu Yuhan, who was determined to end things, took the initiative to speak. However, when Qin Yu turned around, the calmness and steadiness on his face made Lu Yuhan's heart inexplicably tremble.
If Qin Yu's face was filled with doubt, it might mean that he did not recognize her. If Qin Yu's face was filled with fear and uneasiness, it would mean that he did not dare to recognize her. However, now … Qin Yu's face was calm, and he did not even bother to pretend. The meaning behind this was very clear. This made Lu Yuhan very uncomfortable.
Teng Shan looked at Lu Yuhan, then at Su Fan and Xiang Xiong. His body couldn't help but tremble. His mouth was slightly agape, but he couldn't bring himself to say anything.
Under Lu Yuhan's gaze, Qin Yu's expression was calm. His deep eyes met Lu Yuhan's gaze, as if he was looking at an unrelated person. He said calmly, "Qin Yu?
No! "
Listening to Qin Yu's calm voice, the beautiful face under the veil was stunned. Qin Yu's answer had already given Lu Yuhan an answer, and also indirectly told Lu Yuhan that if Qin Yu did not exist in this world, it meant that everything that had happened in the underground cave did not exist. After leaving the underground cave, the two had nothing to do with each other.
"Thank you for the information, fellow daoist."
Lu Yuhan said softly. This was the answer she wanted. It was great that Qin Yu could be like this, but … for some reason, Lu Yuhan felt inexplicably uncomfortable.
Then, Lu Yuhan said to Su Fan and Xiang Xiong, "Let's go back." After saying that, Lu Yuhan turned and left.
Xiang Xiong and Su Fan looked at each other, not knowing what Lu Yuhan's purpose was. Su Fan chased after her and asked, "Senior Sister Lu, there are thousands of outer sect disciples. Maybe that Qin Yu is among them. Why don't we continue to look?"
"No, maybe I made a mistake. Alright, I'm leaving." Lu Yuhan's tone returned to its usual coldness that kept people a thousand miles away.
Qin Yu watched as Lu Yuhan left quickly. He sighed in his heart. Although it looked like an ordinary conversation, only he and Lu Yuhan knew the meaning behind it. In some aspects, they were the same kind of people.
Maybe Qin Yu saw some fetters on Lu Yuhan, but Qin Yu didn't think that anything would happen between him and Lu Yuhan. In the underground cave, Qin Yu was sure of this. People who could persevere in despair like Lu Yuhan definitely wouldn't have their Dao heart easily wavered. This time, she probably wanted to end things and cut the Gordian knot.
Looking at the three figures gradually walking away, Qin Yu suddenly turned his head and asked, "Teng Shan, is there someone called Lu Yuhan among the top ten disciples?"
Teng Shan thought for a moment and shook his head. "No … Brother Chou, that was Su Fan. I don't think the other person is simple either. It's just that … I don't know who that Senior Sister is. She actually made Su Fan accompany her so carefully."
Qin Yu's eyes flickered and a thought appeared in his mind.
VIP … Could it be her?
Qin Yu didn't think too much about it. No matter who she was, she had nothing to do with him anymore. Then, Qin Yu walked away with Teng Shan following behind him.
Not long after, Qin Yu brought Teng Shan to find one of the deacons of the outer sect disciples, Deacon Wang.
Deacon Wang was about 40 years old. He had an average appearance and his face was full of bean-sized moles. His cultivation was at the early stage of the Heaven Tempering Realm. When Teng Shan saw Deacon Wang, he was ordering people around. His old face full of moles was filled with arrogance.
When he saw Teng Shan, Deacon Wang was stunned at first. Then, he said arrogantly, "Teng Shan, what are you doing here instead of melting the essence wood?
If you can't complete the mission, you can pack up and leave. "
Qin Yu glanced at Deacon Wang and didn't say anything. Instead, he turned to look at Teng Shan.
Teng Shan took a deep breath and looked at Deacon Wang fearfully. Then, he looked at Qin Yu. His eyes were filled with uneasiness. However, under Qin Yu's gaze, Teng Shan remembered what Qin Yu had told him. He puffed out his chest and said, "Deacon Wang, I want to participate in the contest in a month's time. Also, why is my daily mission three times that of the others?"
"Oh?
Teng Shan, I think you've eaten a bear's heart and leopard's guts today.
If it wasn't for your late grandfather, you would have been kicked out of the Hundred Refinements Ancient Sect. You still want to participate in the contest?
You must be dreaming. "Deacon Wang was so angry that he laughed and shouted coldly.
"Deacon Wang, why can't I participate in the contest?
The rules of the Hundred Refinements Ancient Sect state that any outer court disciple has the right to participate in the contest. Could it be that Deacon Wang dares to ignore the rules of the sect? "
Teng Shan said angrily. He was almost shouting at the end of his sentence. Ever since Deacon Wang said that, his fighting spirit had been extinguished.
Deacon Wang was stunned. He didn't expect that Teng Shan, who had always been submissive, would dare to challenge him today. He was so angry that he laughed and said, "Sect rules?
Among the outer court disciples, I am the sect rules!
From today onwards, you, Teng Shan, are no longer an outer court disciple of the Hundred Refinements Ancient Sect. Pack up and get lost! "
Teng Shan's eyes seemed as if they were about to spit fire. His body, which was not tall and sturdy, trembled violently. His innocent and pure eyes were actually suffused with a vicious aura. His eyes even contained a trace of killing intent.
When Qin Yu saw this, he couldn't help but feel gratified. The reason why he brought Teng Shan here was to provoke Teng Shan into rebelling. Otherwise, even if Teng Shan became an official disciple of the Hundred Refinements Ancient Sect in the future, he wouldn't be able to stand out.
Deacon Wang's heart skipped a beat when he felt the killing intent in Teng Shan's eyes. He had always bullied the weak and feared the strong. In his heart, Teng Shan was a weak person. Now that Teng Shan suddenly became strong, Deacon Wang panicked.
However, when he thought about Teng Shan's cultivation, Deacon Wang straightened his back. Just as he was about to scold Teng Shan, a terrifying aura suddenly enveloped him.
"Boom!"
At this moment, Deacon Wang's eyes widened. He felt as if the entire world was pressuring him. The fatal danger caused Deacon Wang's body to tremble. He glanced at Qin Yu from the corner of his eyes and looked at Teng Shan in fear. He shouted, "Wait, Teng Shan … let's talk nicely … If you want to participate in the contest … just participate …"
Teng Shan's expression froze and he whispered, "Are you serious?
What about my daily mission? "
"Yes, yes … Before the contest … You … You don't have to do it anymore …" Deacon Wang said in fear. Being enveloped by the aura, Deacon Wang felt as if he had one foot in the door of death. How could he still be as arrogant and proud as before?
Teng Shan's face was filled with joy. He didn't expect Deacon Wang to agree. He turned his head and looked at Qin Yu, who had a cold expression on his face.
