Looking at the empty box, Yang Dingtian's first thought was that Qin City was behind this. They weren't willing to hand over the Yin Yang Reincarnation Crystals.
But thinking about it, it was impossible because he hadn't handed over his lightning-type mystic talisman, Nameless' human-skinned mask, and the Hidden Sect's sword, not to mention the fake Whirling Tribulation Sword Technique.
And seeing that the box was empty, the hair on Qin Huaiyu's neck stood on end. He took a deep breath, and then a burst of mystic energy exploded from his body.
Neither of them were ordinary people. They didn't yell or blame each other.
After a few minutes, the two of them looked at each other.
"This secret room is Qin City's most important secret room, right?
If I'm not wrong, it's about a hundred feet underground.
It's a few miles underground. It's like a maze with countless forks. If you didn't lead the way, I wouldn't have been able to find the right way. "Yang Dingtian said.
Qin Huaiyu nodded.
"Also, there are at least a hundred traps along the way. I'm afraid even a grandmaster-level expert can't block these traps." Yang Dingtian said.
Qin Huaiyu nodded again.
"Also, there's a grandmaster-level expert guarding this secret room at all times." Yang Dingtian said.
Qin Huaiyu nodded again.
"And the box containing the Yin Yang Reincarnation Crystals has a total of nine layers. Each layer is made of black diamond plated with bloody black gold. Unless it's the sword in my hand, this box is completely invulnerable.
Also, this box is cast several feet underground. "Yang Dingtian said.
Qin Huaiyu nodded again.
"But the grandmaster-level expert guarding it is still here. He didn't notice anything strange at all.
And these boxes aren't damaged at all, but the Yin Yang Reincarnation Crystals inside have been taken away. "Yang Dingtian said.
Qin Huaiyu nodded again.
Then, he licked his lips and said, "I'll report to Father immediately."
Then, Qin Huaiyu left with Yang Dingtian and reported to Qin Wanchou as quickly as possible.
…
Qin Wanchou listened to Qin Huaiyu expressionlessly. Then, the muscles on his face twitched.
"Father, what should we do?
Should we immediately put the city under martial law? "Qin Huaiyu asked.
"Martial law?
What are you trying to do?
Even if Dugu Xiao is standing in front of you right now, what can you do? "
Qin Wanchou said, "Don't do anything, and don't tell anyone. Just pretend that nothing happened."
"Then, then let's just forget about it?
Is he going to steal our Yin Yang Samsara Crystals for nothing? "Qin Huaiyu asked.
"Wrong, it's not stolen, it's snatched," Qin Wanchou said. "Don't use the word 'thief' on Dugu Xiao."
"Then, then our Qin City is too weak," Qin Huaiyu said.
"Don't worry, he'll give me an explanation," Qin Wanchou said. "Furthermore, this is also your fault.
Back in the Dongli Grassland, you guys abandoned Dugu Fengwu and ran away. Even if he snatched the Yin Yang Reincarnation Crystal, it would be a slight punishment to Qin City! "
"Sigh …" Following that, Qin Wanchou sighed and said, "Yang Dingtian, you don't have to give me your lightning-attribute mystic talisman, Hidden Sect's treasured sword, and that sword art.
Once the Yin Yang Samsara Crystals are in your hands, you can give them to me. "
Yang Dingtian shook his head and said, "There's no need. I'll give them to Senior Brother Qin now."
"Senior Brother Qin, come with me to get the items," Yang Dingtian said.
Qin Huaiyu was slightly startled and said, "Brother, you don't have to do this."
"Dugu Xiao took the Yin Yang Samsara Crystals because of me. It doesn't have much to do with you guys."
Yang Dingtian said, "I'm also hoping to express to you guys that I'm now in a marriage alliance with Qin City. Regardless of whether I'm willing or not, I'll definitely abide by certain agreements.
Even if I have to fall out with you guys in the future, I'll still tell you. "
Qin Huaiyu glanced at his father and nodded forcefully, "I know."
Then, Qin Huaiyu followed Yang Dingtian to get the items.
At this moment, Qin Wanchou suddenly said, "Yang Dingtian, even if you're so magnanimous, when Qin Qi attacks Qianye, you'll still be on the verge of death.
However, when Qin Qiqi returns to the Northwest Continent in the future and makes a move on you, I won't stop her. You must be clear about this.
However, I can guarantee that I won't do anything myself. "
"I understand," Yang Dingtian said. "Since I'm supporting Senior Brother Qin, I'll naturally be Qin Qiqi's enemy."
… …
After leaving Qin Wanchou's room, Qin Huaiyu didn't have anything.
After arriving at the Yang Estate, he brought Qin Huaiyu to the main hall and said, "Senior Brother, wait here for a moment. I'll go in and get something."
"Alright," Qin Huaiyu said.
Yang Dingtian walked into the inner room and pretended to rummage through the cabinets, but in reality, he took out a box from his interspatial ring.
Carrying the box out, Yang Dingtian said with a smile in front of Qin Huaiyu, "I hope that after I open this box, it won't be a slip of paper."
Qin Huaiyu said with a smile, "Then don't open it, I'll take the box away."
Qin Huaiyu's meaning was very clear. Even if it was an empty box, Qin Huaiyu would think that there were thunder talismans and swords inside.
"That won't do," Yang Dingtian said.
Then, he opened the box.
The items inside were still there. He had always kept them in his interspatial ring. Even immortals couldn't take them away.
"This is the ancient sword of the Hidden Sect." Yang Dingtian handed over the sword.
Then, he took out a small box and opened it. Inside was a transparent blue jade talisman. There was a faint electric current flashing.
Seeing this jade talisman, Qin Huaiyu couldn't help but breathe heavily.
This was an extremely rare item. Even if Qin City was the richest in the world, they didn't have this.
"This is a thunder talisman." Yang Dingtian put the jade talisman back into the box and handed it over.
"This is Nameless's human skin mask."
"This scroll is about the experience of counterfeiting the Swaying Calamity Crossing Sword. There are about ten to twenty thousand words. It clearly states how to make the special effects of the Hidden Sect's sword technique.
However, this is all for show. Don't use it to fight. It wastes your profound qi and has no lethality.
It can only be used to scare people. "Yang Dingtian said with a smile and handed over the booklet.
All the items were handed over.
After Qin Huaiyu took the items, he bowed deeply and said, "Brother, I can't thank you enough.
In the future, I will let you see clearly. If I really open my heart, I, Qin Huaiyu, will not let you down. "
Then, Qin Huaiyu said, "This thing is too precious. I have to immediately take it and hide it in the treasury. I will take my leave first.
As for Duan Ruyan, I will come to you next time. "
"See you in the afternoon." Yang Dingtian said.
Then, Qin Huaiyu turned and left.
… ….
Yang Dingtian sat on the chair and closed his eyes, thinking about Dugu Xiao's note.
The huge surprise he mentioned?
What was going on?
Could it be that the scales on Dugu Aoshuang's face were healed?
It shouldn't be that. To Yang Dingtian, this wasn't considered a huge surprise at all.
However, if he wanted to take back this Yin Yang Reincarnation Crystal, he would probably have to make a trip to the Temple of Blood.
Moreover, he originally wanted to head in that direction because the mystic vein essence that Master said was in the extreme north and had to pass through the Temple of Blood.
The reason why Dongfang Bingling asked him to go together was because they had to pass through the heart of the Evil ways. It was simply too dangerous.
However, if Dugu Xiao wanted to kill him, he would have done so long ago.
There probably wouldn't be any danger to his life this time.
Moreover, even if Dugu Xiao wanted to kill Yang Dingtian, he could do it anywhere and didn't need to go to the Temple of Blood at all.
However, Yang Dingtian couldn't think of that so-called huge surprise no matter how hard he racked his brains.
Immediately after, Yang Dingtian recalled that when he went to meet Qin Wanchou, he had already sent someone to send Qin Jiaojiao to his Yang Residence. Because from today onwards, she would be a member of the Yang Clan and wouldn't be able to stay in the Qin Palace.
Why didn't he see Qin Jiaojiao after entering the Qin Residence?
Right at this moment, he seemed to have heard Qin Jiaojiao's voice.
She was extremely terrified and her voice was trembling.
Instantly, Yang Dingtian opened his eyes abruptly.
He saw Qin Jiaojiao as expected. Qin Jiaojiao who was in extreme fear.
Apart from Qin Jiaojiao, there was another person — a handsome, confident, and unrestrained middle-aged man.
The great demon of the Temple of Blood, one of the leaders of the Evil ways, and one of the few remaining grandmasters in the world, Dugu Xiao.
He was sitting opposite Yang Dingtian while Qin Jiaojiao stood in front of him and kept trembling. She even felt like she was about to pee in her pants.
Her entire face was completely pale and colorless.
At this moment, Dugu Xiao was playing with something in his hand.
It was a round ball that was half black and half white.
Two types of energy were constantly circulating.
This thing was about the size of a fist and looked extremely mysterious. It was like a small planet with the scenery inside constantly changing.
The moment this thing appeared, Yang Dingtian felt that the surrounding Mystic Qi seemed to have become much purer.
This was the treasure of heaven and earth that heaven and earth spent 10,000 years to condense, the Yin Yang Reincarnation Crystal.
Even if Cloud Heaven City was sold ten times over, they still wouldn't be able to afford the Yin Yang Reincarnation Crystal.
Even if Ground Fissure City spent 1,500 miles of territory, hundreds of ships, billions of gold coins, and thousands of flying cavalry to obtain the Yin Yang Reincarnation Crystal.
Yang Dingtian went forward and bowed deeply. "Yang Dingtian greets Senior Dugu."
"En …" Dugu Xiao said, "You saw the note I left behind?"
"Yes," Yang Dingtian said.
"Actually, when I came to Qin City to take this thing, Qin Wanchou felt it," Dugu Xiao said. "But he didn't stop me. Do you know what that means?"
"I know."
Yang Dingtian: "Between Grandmasters, unless it's a life and death battle, they won't fall out with each other."
"En, since you know this, you're more or less the same as an expert."
Dugu Xiao said, "After I took this Yin Yang Reincarnation Crystal, I came to your house and even slept in your house last night."
Then, Dugu Xiao's gaze landed on Qin Jiaojiao. "But just now, perhaps your newlywed wife thought I was someone to you and pointed at me and called me an old fart. Let me say something, you'll probably be beaten by Yang Dingtian in the future like this.
In the end, she slapped me. If I hadn't dodged quickly, I'm afraid I would have been hit.
I've never been slapped in my entire life. "
When he said this, Qin Jiaojiao was so scared that she almost collapsed to the ground.
Yang Dingtian was also shocked. Who was this Qin Jiaojiao? She even dared to slap a super demon like Dugu Xiao?
"In the Dongli grassland, Qin Huaiyu abandoned Feng Wu at a critical moment and she almost died there. I came to Qin City this time to settle the score. Now that Qin Wanchou's daughter has come to provoke me, what do you think I should do?" Dugu Xiao said.
Yang Dingtian: "Qin Jiaojiao is young and doesn't know anything. You're a Grandmaster, you mustn't lower yourself to her level."
"No, I'm a petty person."
Dugu Xiao said, "So, I plan to skin this woman alive to vent the hatred in my heart."
"Ah …" Qin Jiaojiao cried out and was about to faint.
Then, Dugu Xiao said, "Yang Dingtian, my left hand has the Yin Yang Reincarnation Crystal and my right hand has Qin Jiaojiao.
Make a choice, do you want the Yin Yang Reincarnation Crystal or Qin Jiaojiao?
If you want the Reincarnation Crystal, I'll give it to you now and skin Qin Jiaojiao on the spot.
If you want Qin Jiaojiao, I'll take this Reincarnation Crystal. "
With that, Dugu Xie placed his palm on top of Qin Jiaojiao's head, his fingernails gently scratching her head as he said lazily, "Dig your fingernails into her scalp and tear it apart. You'll be able to peel off her skin completely and she'll still be alive. She'll be bloody and will jump around and scream."
Qin Jiaojiao fell to the ground in despair. Her beautiful eyes turned white as she collapsed to the ground.
In her opinion, she was definitely dead. Yang Dingtian would definitely choose the Yin Yang Reincarnation Crystal.
Moreover, even if Qin Jiaojiao died in Dugu Xiao's hands, Qin Wanchou wouldn't take revenge for her.
Yang Dingtian was speechless. He smiled and said, "I choose Qin Jiaojiao."
He didn't even have any suspense. After Dugu Xiao said that, Yang Dingtian pointed at Qin Jiaojiao.
Qin Jiaojiao, who was almost unconscious, opened her eyes and looked at Yang Dingtian in disbelief.
"You really choose Qin Jiaojiao?" Dugu Xiao said, "Then I'll crush this Yin Yang Reincarnation Crystal!"
"Ah?!"
Yang Dingtian exclaimed. "Senior, didn't you say that I have to make a trip to the Temple of Blood to get the Reincarnation Crystal?
You didn't say to destroy the Reincarnation Crystal? "
"I changed my mind. Can't I?
I'm unhappy with your hypocritical appearance. Can't I? "
Dugu Xiao said, "I'll give you another chance to choose now. Do you want the Reincarnation Crystal or Qin Jiaojiao?"
With that, he held the Reincarnation Crystal in one hand and grabbed Qin Jiaojiao's head with the other.
This time, Yang Dingtian was really in a difficult situation.
This was the Reincarnation Crystal, and he paid an incomparable price to obtain it.
Even if he didn't build the Mystic Qi Condensation Purification Array himself, he could exchange it for countless benefits by transferring it to the South Sea Ning Clan, Earth Splitting City, or Cloud Sky Pavilion.
As for this Qin Jiaojiao, he married her completely out of helplessness. He really didn't like her and hated her instead.
Frowning hard, Yang Dingtian gritted his teeth and said, "I'd better choose Qin Jiaojiao."
Qin Jiaojiao suddenly trembled as if she had forgotten her fear. She looked at Yang Dingtian in disbelief.
She really didn't expect that Yang Dingtian would really choose her!
This wasn't an act now. This great demon before her would really crush the Yin Yang Reincarnation Crystal.
"Alright, this is your choice." Dugu Xiao sneered and then squeezed with his left hand.
"Puchi …" Instantly, the Yin Yang Reincarnation Crystal in his hand shattered completely. Countless fragments and powder splattered everywhere.
"No …" Yang Dingtian's heart ached so much that he screamed and immediately fell back to his seat.
Looking at the Yin Yang Reincarnation Crystal that had turned into powder, he really wanted to cry.
This thing had an immeasurable effect on him reviving Cloud Sky City.
Moreover, this one was crushed. Who knew how many years it would be before the next Yin Yang Reincarnation Crystal was dug out?
"See, you regret it now," Dugu Xiao said. "This is the consequence of pretending to be righteous.
You people from the Tiandō League are too hypocritical. Our Evil ways are so real and straightforward. We kill and destroy as we wish. We're not hypocritical at all. How unruly are we? "
Yang Dingtian smiled helplessly. "My heart hurts so much, but I don't regret it. If a person's thoughts aren't restrained and they can do whatever they want, then what's the difference between them and a beast?"
Dugu Xiao sneered, expressing his disdain.
Then, Yang Dingtian looked at Dugu Xiao, and said, "Even if it's you, aren't you also restrained by many things? How can you be truly unruly?
Otherwise, you wouldn't have appeared here today.
Otherwise, that day at the Temple of Blood, you would have killed me with a palm strike. "
Dugu Xiao instantly fell silent. He stared at Yang Dingtian and said coldly, "Now, I really regret not killing you with a palm strike back then. Otherwise, I wouldn't be in such a passive position today."
Then, he took out a jade ball from his sleeve. It looked exactly the same as the one just now, except that it was more mysterious and lively.
Very obviously, the one that Dugu Xiao had crushed earlier was a fake. This was the real Yin Yang Reincarnation Crystal.
Of course, he wouldn't specially make a fake Reincarnation Crystal for Yang Dingtian to put on a show in such a short period of time. He had made this fake long ago. Originally, he was going to replace the real one in Qin City's treasure vault.
However, he simply took the Reincarnation Crystal and couldn't be bothered to replace it. He even left behind a note.
"Remember, hurry to the Temple of Blood within five days. Otherwise, I will crush this Yin Yang Reincarnation Crystal immediately. This time, I will not put on a show with you.
If you don't make it in five days, not only will I crush this thing, but I will also go to Cloud Heaven City and kill all your relatives. I mean what I say, "Dugu Xiao said coldly," Yang Dingtian, don't force me to kill your entire family. "
Then, as if he had teleported, he quickly disappeared.
Yang Dingtian chased after him and shouted, "Senior, you have to tell me why you are going to the Temple of Blood, right?"
"Dugu Fengwu is about to die. She is waiting for you to save her!" Dugu Xiao said coldly, his tone filled with rage.
Then, Dugu Xiao instantly vanished without a trace.
"What?
Dugu Fengwu is about to die?
How can that be?
It can't be, right? "Yang Dingtian was instantly stunned.
However, this Dugu Xiao wasn't a gentleman. The words that he said might not be true.
At this moment, Qin Jiaojiao, who was on the ground, suddenly said coldly, "Yang Dingtian, you are such a hypocrite. Don't think that I will be deceived by you. Don't think that I will change my opinion of you."
Yang Dingtian looked at Qin Jiaojiao, who was paralyzed on the ground, and said, "Stupid woman, you are so scared that you peed your pants!"
