"You …" Qiu Chuer was furious, but she quickly calmed down. Even though she'd been poisoned, it didn't mean that she'd lost her memories. She knew that Qin Shi had done it unintentionally. She pursed her lips and said, "Why did you save me earlier?
If you didn't detoxify me, you could've taken me. Moreover, you would've had a sufficient reason to do so. "
Qin Shi was puzzled, "Why do I have to take you?"
"You …" Qiu Chuer was stunned, and her anger was ignited a little more.
Qin Shi's indifference caused her to become even more furious. She believed that she was extremely beautiful. However, she had rarely revealed her true appearance to others over the years. Even so, every time she removed her cloak and revealed her face, countless men would be willing to kneel before her. She possessed a natural beauty that was not inferior to Mu Xiaoyi. Moreover, she possessed a figure that was so perfect that it was comparable to Chen Yan's.
However, all of this didn't seem to be the slightest bit tempting to the man before her.
Qin Shi said, "Don't misunderstand. I just feel that if men rely on their lower bodies to think, then how are they any different from animals in the forest?"
Qiu Chuer was slightly dazed when she heard this, and a strange expression suddenly appeared in her eyes.
For some unknown reason, she actually felt a unique attraction from Qin Shi at this moment.
Qin Shi naturally didn't know what Qiu Chuer was thinking, and he didn't want to have anything to do with this woman. Since he'd confirmed that the woman captured by the Demon King Palace wasn't Chen Yan, Qin Shi heaved a sigh of relief. This proved that those who'd died weren't Lu Peng, Li Shu, and the others. After that, Qin Shi turned around with the intention of leaving. However, Qiu Chuer pursed her lips and suddenly said, "You mistook me for Chen Yan, right?"
Qin Shi was stunned, but he didn't conceal it and nodded.
Qiu Chuer asked curiously, "If it was Chen Yan earlier, would you have taken advantage of the situation?"
Qin Shi shook his head in amusement. Although his feelings for Chen Yan were extremely complicated, he wouldn't have taken advantage of her either.
Firstly, he didn't want to be a vile person. As for the second reason … if he wanted to have a relationship with Chen Yan, why did he have to wait until she was poisoned with the Love Poison?
When he thought up to here, Qin Shi couldn't help but laugh bitterly. It would be more accurate if it was Chen Yan who would take advantage of the situation, right?
Qiu Chuer hesitated for a moment before she said, "If it's Chen Yan, then you do indeed need to save her. However, it's not here."
"Hmm?" Qin Shi suddenly frowned and stopped. "What do you mean?"
Qiu Chuer sighed, "You must have noticed that the three young masters of the Demon King Palace are not here, right?"
Qin Shi nodded. He didn't see the Demon King Palace's Third Young Master.
"Previously, the Demon King Palace occupied this canyon for the sake of Dongxuan Ling, but Dongxuan Ling fell into Chen Yan's hands. If I'm not wrong, this should have something to do with you. At that time, Chen Yan broke through to the World Realm and heavily injured the Demon King Palace's Third Young Master, Yao Er. Then, she used the World of Reincarnation to create an illusion and escaped with Lu Peng and the others. However, when the Demon Marten broke through the illusion, she was enraged and led the Demon King Palace's main force to pursue Chen Yan with the other two young masters."
Qin Shi's eyes sank abruptly. Meanwhile, he suddenly recalled that a disciple from the Demon King's Palace had indeed mentioned the matter of a mad woman heavily injuring Yao Misery, but he'd never imagined that it would actually be Chen Yan who did it.
However, the more it was so, the more anxious Qin Shi became. Although Chen Yan had broken through to the World Realm as promised, it was extremely difficult for her to fight against three initial World Realm cultivators on her own.
Moreover, the Demon King Palace's Third Young Master could hold his own against Ah Biao. Chen Yan and the others were definitely not a match for him.
Although the World of Reincarnation was powerful, it would be difficult for it to work a second time.
“
"Where are they?" Qin Shi's voice rose by a few decibels.
Qiu Chuer could clearly sense the worry in Qin Shi's voice. She did not know why, but she felt a little envious.
Qiu Chuer hesitated for a moment, before pointing, "They're heading towards the middle profound region."
"The middle profound region?" Qin Shi suddenly recalled the instructions he had given him before he left. Chen Yan's goal was to wait for him.
Qin Shi clenched his fists tightly as he looked towards the middle profound region.
"You have to wait for me."
This time, it was really Chen Yan. It was absolutely true.
Without any hesitation, Qin Shi rapidly rose into the air. With a thunderous momentum, he quickly stepped on the air, wildly rushing towards the middle Xuan region, leaving Luo Ye far behind. Luo Ye seemed to have lost track of Qin Shi even before he exited the canyon. He involuntarily shook his head on a shattered boulder, "This fellow … when he's angry, he's really frightening."
"There's no need for us to follow. The result is already obvious. The Demon King Palace has touched his reverse scale, and the Deep Sea Genesis reservoir has come to an end."
Qiu Chuer also smiled. "Compared to your Mad King Palace, he seems more like a madman."
Luo Ye had no choice but to nod in agreement. Soon after, the two's gazes changed slightly.
"Hehe, this time, the outer layer's results will definitely make those old fellows from the inner three thousand stomp their feet, right?
With his personality, he'll definitely enter the middle profound region, and he'll definitely stir up a storm there. "
Qiu Chuer suddenly fell silent. Soon after, she said in a soft but expectant voice, "I just didn't expect that he would ultimately become the pride of the outer layer."
Qiu Chuer clenched her fists, and a cool breeze suddenly blew her fine black hair. At the same time, it stirred up her heart that had been sealed for twenty years.
...
After leaving the canyon, Qin Shi made a beeline for the middle profound region.
Along the way, there were always some disciples from the inner three thousand that did not have eyes. However, all of them were turned into charcoal by Qin Shi's lightning.
At the place where the eastern profound region and middle profound region connected, a natural barrier that separated heaven and earth was erected from the bottom of the island, connecting to the surface of the earth that had been pinched up. This barrier was the boundary that allowed one to enter the middle profound region, and only those with a rank one hundred Spirit Tablet could enter. Of course, there would always be those who wished to be lucky, or those who were unconvinced and wanted to challenge the boundary. However, anyone with a Spirit Tablet lower than rank one hundred would die on the spot if they touched the boundary, even if it was just the tiniest bit.
After countless previous examples, no one dared to touch the boundary's dignity.
At this time, several frail figures were surrounded by a group of people within the boundary.
The figure was led by a woman with an impressive figure. She was undoubtedly Chen Yan, who had just broken through to the World realm. Behind her were Lu Peng and a few others, and the ones surrounding them were naturally the disciples of the Demon King Palace. The three at the front were extremely pompous, embroidered robes wrapped around their bodies. However, one of them was currently in a rather sorry state. Even now, his eyes were a little hollow, and his forehead was dripping with sweat.
Li Rui clenched his teeth and said, "Demon marten, don't go too far. I told you that these people are under the protection of my Sky Emperor Palace. Do you want to go against my Sky Emperor Palace?"
The leading demon marten sneered, "Haha, Li Rui, if I remember correctly, you're just an abandoned pawn of the Sky Emperor Palace, right?
You're a natural trash who exhausted so many of the Sky Emperor Palace's resources, but you haven't even grasped the threshold of the World realm. If your father wasn't the current palace master of the Sky Emperor Palace, do you think you'd still be alive now?
If you really are under the protection of the Sky Emperor Palace, I can consider letting them go. But you, Li Rui, don't deserve it. "
"You …" Li Rui's eyes turned cold, but he was speechless. His position in the Sky Emperor Palace was indeed not high.
All these years, he had been like a parasite in the Sky Emperor Palace. He might be able to scare the outer disciples, but he wasn't much of a threat to the three thousand inner disciples.
Li Rui clenched his fists so hard that they creaked.
"Brother, don't listen to his nonsense. Others may not know you, but we do. Although your strength has been improving slowly, you've been wholeheartedly running around for the Sky Emperor Palace. We believe that you'll prove yourself to the world sooner or later," said the two disciples who followed Li Rui.
Li Rui smiled bitterly. "Prove?
What's there to prove?
I'm just an abandoned pawn, but no matter what, I must protect them before that guy arrives. Although I'm not essential to the Sky Emperor Palace, if the Sky Emperor Palace can gain his support, it will definitely be able to dominate the three thousand inner disciples again. My father will also not be bullied because of me. "
At this time, the Demonic Marten's gaze fell on Chen Yan's delicate body.
"What a natural beauty, but it's a pity that your heart is a bit too vicious. However, it's a good time to plant the Love Poison in you. I'll help you poison it. Moreover, since you've already absorbed the Dongxuan Spirit, the only way for me to obtain it is through dual cultivation." The Demonic Marten paused for a moment, then said, "Do it. Apart from that woman, don't leave anyone alive."
"Who dares to touch my sister-in-law?!" Lu Peng took a step forward in anger.
But suddenly, Chen Yan stopped him.
Chen Yan's eyes narrowed, and a cold glint flickered in her eyes.
"Sister-in-law …"
"We're no match for them. If there's an opportunity later, you guys should run first. I'll hold them off."
"How can I do that?
I promised Big Brother that I'd take good care of you! "
"Silly brat, since you call me sister-in-law, your big brother will protect us when he's around. If he's not around, I'll naturally be the one protecting you."
Chen Yan laughed. At this moment, she clenched her fists tightly. She had already made a firm resolution in her heart. She knew that the Nether Three Thousand Poison of Love could affect anything outside of the Deep Sea Source Pool, but she would never allow the Demon Monarch Palace to poison her. She, Chen Yan, was Qin Shi's woman in this life, and her ghost in death.
She would rather die than be humiliated.
"What a stubborn woman." The Demonic Marten sneered, as if he had seen through Chen Yan's intentions. Soon after, he signaled Yao Yu with a glance.
Yao Yu chuckled and stepped forward. Purple will-o '-the-wisp burned on his palm, and he pounced towards Chen Yan like a ferocious wolf.
Chen Yan clenched her fists tightly, and suddenly took a deep breath. "Qin Shi … even if I die, I won't let anyone humiliate me. I'm your woman, and even if I die, I will protect your little brothers. I only hope that you remember that in this life … there's a woman called Chen Yan who has given her heart and soul to you, and loved you."
"Reincarnation: World!"
Soon after, her beautiful eyes changed, and a strange color began to surge in her own world.
"That damned illusion again?" Yao Yu was taken aback. Soon after, she smiled and said, "Unfortunately, it's useless against me."
"Hehe, so do you think it'll work?"
Suddenly, a grand voice resounded in the sky above Chen Yan, and it descended like a thunderclap.
A black robe descended at this moment. Qin Shi's expression was as cold as ice as Qin Shi's palm ignited with a ten-thousand-foot tall golden flame.
