When they saw that figure, the air seemed to have stopped flowing and time seemed to have stopped. Everyone stood rooted to the ground, dumbfounded.
"Shi, Shi Tou?"
Suddenly, Lin Yu let out a cry of surprise. Only then did many people regain their senses. That figure was Qin Shi wrapped in a black robe.
His black robe was still swaying in the wind.
Hearing this, Su Ming and the others were stunned. They immediately rubbed their eyes and when they saw that the figure did not disappear, they were sure that it was not a dream. They were overjoyed. "Shi Tou, it's really Shi Tou. He's not dead!
He's not dead! "
Hua Ling saw the teenager in black robes in the valley. She let out a light breath and relaxed. She said, "Do you always want others to worry for you?"
Qin Shi shrugged. "I'm fine."
"I know. If you're dead, I'll capture your soul even if I have to go to hell. Before you fulfill the 300 years promise you made with Luosha, your life is not yours." Hua Ling curled her lips.
Hearing this, Qin Shi laughed dryly. "What a cruel woman."
"How, how is that possible?"
Seeing that Qin Shi was fine, the Duanmu brothers widened their eyes like frightened rabbits. Their faces were filled with disbelief.
"Haha, Emperor Duanmu, are you disappointed?"
"Brat, don't be too full of yourself!"
Duanmu Hong cursed, and then he roared at Haoyue in the distance, "Haoyue, what are you standing there for? Quickly kill him!
Kill him! "
But unexpectedly, this time, no matter how much he shouted, Haoyue held the giant sword in his hand and stood motionless above the valley. He stared at Qin Shi for a long time. There was disbelief in his eyes, but more than that, there was an indescribable strangeness.
"That feeling just now, was it the sect's aura?"
Haoyue mumbled to himself. He then lifted his head slightly and looked at Qin Shi with a serious expression. "Are you a disciple of the Sword Sect?"
"Hmm?" Hearing this, Qin Shi revealed a surprised expression. "How did you know?"
"Just answer me yes or no!" Haoyue pressed.
Qin Shi's black eyes rotated when he saw how agitated he was. Soon after, he stared at the giant sword on Haoyue's back. Suddenly, he seemed to have understood something and nodded, "Yes."
Clang!
Inexplicably, Haoyue suddenly trembled as if he was greatly stimulated. Then, he suddenly took a step back and said to Qin Shi, "If that's the case, then I won't interfere in your matter."
"What?" Qin Shi was stunned, his face full of astonishment.
On the other hand, the distant Duanmu Hong was horrified when he heard this, and he roared furiously. "Haoyue, what did you say?
I saved your life. You promised me that if I'm in trouble one day, you'll protect me from death! "
"He's right. I've already saved you once. If you retreated just now, you wouldn't be in danger now. You're the one who's greedy, so you can't blame me."
Haoyue shook his head indifferently. Immediately, his voice became much darker and colder, "Moreover, if I remember correctly, you were the one who took the initiative to provoke him. It is only right and proper for him to seek revenge from you now."
"You …!"
Duanmu Hong was so angry that his face turned red, and his entire body was trembling. However, just as he was about to speak, Haoyue had already retreated to the periphery of the valley. This made him realize that it was useless for him to say anything else. He stomped his foot fiercely, "You ungrateful fellow!"
Qin Shi also looked at Haoyue with a deeper meaning in his eyes. Although his heart was filled with doubt, the most important thing right now was to kill the Duanmu brothers. For this reason, he suppressed all of his curiosity at the bottom of his heart and said inwardly, "I'll investigate it after this is over."
After that, he looked at Duanmu Hong who was cursing incessantly, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. Although the matter was slightly unexpected, it was the best outcome. After a short period of contact, he admired Haoyue. He was a sentimental and sincere person. If it was possible, he truly felt that Haoyue was a good friend.
"Then, Emperor Duanmu, let's settle the score. It's time for you to repay your debt." Qin Shi's eyes turned cold and a murderous aura shrouded the entire place.
All of a sudden, the stars in the night sky seemed to dim, and all the light gathered around Qin Shi. On the surface of his body, layers of golden Lin Clan appeared. After that, the Palace Armor, the Soul Hall Armor, the Tempered God Dharma Body, and several unparalleled martial arts gathered into one. Behind him, an illusory figure that looked like a bright moon appeared. From the illusory figure, a suction force that could resist gravity could be felt. It was the Chaotic Holy Spirit Body.
This time, Qin Shi really used his full strength. Even Haoyue, who was far away, frowned. "These are the two Sovereign Celestial Bodies of the Chaos Holy Spirit Body?"
However, he kept his word. He said that he wouldn't interfere. From the beginning to the end, he didn't interfere.
"Damn it!"
Under the pressure of Qin Shi, the Duanmu Brothers' faces changed. They were shocked. "How did his strength increase again?"
"Could it be that he didn't use his full strength just now?"
Seeing this, even Lin Yu and the others were shocked. "What a terrifying fluctuation."
"This kid, how is it that he's able to become stronger every time?"
"God knows. He's a mystery. How many times has it been since he returned to the Hundred Tides Realm? He can break through his limits every time. It's terrifying!"
The Chi Yan Brothers smiled bitterly. But in their smiles, they felt relieved. From the moment Qin Shi used his full strength, they seemed to see the dawn of victory.
"Brother, what should we do next?" Duanmu Yun said, gritting her teeth.
Duanmu Hong's eyes darkened. "I didn't expect that Haoyue would suddenly change sides at this critical moment. Now we can't rely on him. We can only rely on ourselves. This kid's strength suddenly increased. He must have used some secret skill. Let's find a way to delay him. Once any secret skill reaches its limit, he will definitely experience a period of weakness. That will be the best time to kill him!"
Duanmu Yun hesitated for a moment when he heard this. Truthfully speaking, he had already lost his will to fight. Qin Shi was truly too powerful. However, they had no way out now, so they could only nod and say, "Alright!"
"Let's do it!"
The two of them glanced at each other, and once again displayed their Heart Like One.
But in that short moment, Qin Shi stood still and shook his head. "It's useless. I've said that the cooperation between you two is useless against me."
As he finished speaking, he spread out his five fingers, and the wild thunder roared out from the night sky, piercing through the clouds.
Swoosh!
In the next instant, the lightning that shook the sky split into two under Qin Shi's black robe. Two afterimages flashed out and headed straight for the Duanmu brothers, who were closing in on him.
Bang!
A clear sound rang out. No one could clearly see what had happened. They only saw the Duanmu Brothers, who had originally taken the initiative to attack, suddenly stop in their galloping movements. They were dumbfounded as they stood rooted to the ground.
When the shadows reappeared, they had merged into one. Qin Shi stood a hundred meters behind the Duanmu Brothers. He turned around and looked at their numb backs. He shook his head and said, "From the moment the two of you decided to attack Chi Yan, the Mountain Gaze has already fallen."
Poof!
Suddenly, just as he finished speaking, the night sky was dyed red. Poof! Poof! Poof!
The wounds were so deep that their bones could be seen. The wounds almost took their lives. Duanmu Yun was the worst. She fell straight into the valley. Although Duanmu Hong did not faint, he turned around in shock and stared at Qin Shi. "You, you … How is this possible?!"
He could not believe it. Although the two of them had been defeated in the previous battle with Qin Shi, they had at least been able to fight him to a stalemate. This time, however, they had been defeated so thoroughly that they did not even have time to recover from their shock. It was over in just one move.
Was this Qin Shi's true strength?
Duanmu Hong regretted attacking Chi Yan. Suddenly, he raised his head and said, "Haha, hahaha, we've all been deceived. You're not someone we can deal with at all. It's the same for Sheng Feng. Laughable, truly laughable. We've been used!"
"Go down there and atone for your sins."
Qin Shi shook his head silently. Then, he extended his hand and pierced Duanmu Hong's chest, causing the last of Duanmu Hong's life to fade away.
Haoyue seemed to have expected this. He looked at Duanmu Hong who had fallen into the valley and shook his head. "You should not have provoked him."
Everything happened too quickly. It was so fast that Lin Yu and the others did not have the time to react. After a long time, they finally gulped and said, "Is it really over this time?"
After a while, Chi Yan's side cheered loudly. The Duanmu brothers had been killed. This meant that the assassination plan had completely come to an end. Moreover, it had been completed very smoothly.
When Qin Shi heard the commotion below, the corners of his lips curled into a faint smile. Then, he waved his hand and took Duanmu Hong's Space Ring.
He poured his Psychic Energy into it. When he saw the various treasures piled up into a mountain, Qin Shi could not help but laugh. He thought to himself, "Haha, an emperor level Space Ring is indeed like a mountain of gold. Just the amount of spiritual stones here is probably enough to rival the Qin sect's treasury."
"Hmm?"
However, amidst his excitement, his black eyes suddenly landed on a scroll. When he saw the words on the scroll, even his breathing could not help but quicken. He said excitedly, "This is the Duanmu Secret Technique: Dual Slaughter of Boiling Flames?"
