Eaves are dyed green, floating clouds like broken floss.
Along this one long street, Qin Guang King, descended from a god, approached his powerful opponent, Sun Yin, one step, one seal, marking the long street.
His long hair danced wildly like mad snakes, evil green eyes like growing wild grass.
This kind of terrifying power could desolate human hearts, give birth to decay, and make the will to die forever present.
All the people Qin Guang King killed committed suicide!
But Sun Yin remained unmoved, standing quietly in the center of the street, blocking with one palm, blocking out a heavy heaven.
Fan Wu Shu, representing the future of Li Country, hurried all the way here, pushed by the aftershock of violent power, swaying precariously on the rooftop edge by the street side.
And at the end of the long street, Bian Cheng King still pressed Chu Xu into the ground pit, his body like cast iron, not moving an inch.
He only said coldly: “It doesn’t concern you, don’t come looking for death.”
He didn’t know who he was saying it to, but Fan Wu Shu took it as directed at himself.
“Experts fighting in my country’s capital, how can I be deaf and blind as if nothing is happening? Today I come to watch the battle, even if I die, I must see what kind of divine beings these experts are!”
He flicked his robe sleeve, his body swaying but showing a graceful bearing: “Please continue!”
At that time, the long street had no scattered pedestrians; they had all scattered.
This long street, located in Yi Ning City, the capital of Li Country, had already been bombed to pieces, and each person held their ground.
The nearest city guard army was two street blocks away, lined up with soldiers, alertly deploying defenses.
Li Country’s royal palace was as quiet as if no one was there, like a sculpture.
After a series of perceptions over a long but actually very short silence, Sun Yin retracted his palm, letting it hang by his side: “Then let’s chat for a bit.”
He could not care about anything else, but he could not completely disregard the life of a so-called ‘Dao friend’.
Protectors of the Dao could die for their ideals.
But as Chu Xu said, unnecessary sacrifice should be avoided if possible.
As soon as Sun Yin’s words fell.
Chu Xu, who was being pressed into the ground, suddenly relaxed a breath, his tense body immediately went limp, only wanting to breathe in large gulps. But his breath was obstructed by the mask, and the hand on the mask, he could only stare straight at Bian Cheng King.
However, Bian Cheng King still didn’t move, his whole person silent as iron, again maintaining a sharp edge ready to explode. He only casually cut off Fan Wu Shu’s sense of hearing, not allowing him to hear, and Fan Wu Shu was also smart enough not to resist.
And Qin Guang King, who the previous moment was still attacking madly, showing a posture of fighting to the death, the next moment let his long hair hang down, his green eyes turned black, and he lightly wiped the corner of his mouth.
“Alright, we’ll chat slowly.” He had a smile on his face, looking composed: “Want a drink?”
It seemed he had never fought for his life and had never been injured.
Sun Yin ignored Fan Wu Shu and didn’t answer Qin Guang King, only saying to Bian Cheng King, who still hadn’t loosened his hand: “Do you think you’ll kill him first, or will I kill you first?”
Bian Cheng King didn’t believe Sun Yin would loosen his mouth to chat, he only believed that he was pressing down on the life of an Equal Country Protector of the Dao, and that a fragile peace had been reached under the threat of life and death.
His voice was icy cold: “Feel free to try.”
The atmosphere became solemn for a time.
Under this pressure, the broken stones were almost ground down again.
“Let me say one sentence!” Chu Xu said with great effort: “Gambling is a bad habit, lightly you lose money, heavily you ruin your family, everyone should avoid it!”
“Well said!” Qin Guang King clapped his hands in praise: “This brother has a noble character, exactly the talent Hell No Door needs. If you don’t make it in Equal Country someday, remember to contact me.”
Chu Xu eagerly said: “I also like the spirit of Hell No Door very much, how about I join now, please trouble this colleague to loosen your hand a bit.”
From beginning to end, Sun Yin didn’t have a single dialogue with Chu Xu, just like Qin Guang King and Bian Cheng King didn’t even exchange a glance. Two organizations, four people, a strange and dangerous tacit understanding existed.
Sun Yin still looked at Bian Cheng King: “I’m a little curious about your reliance.”
Bian Cheng King said indifferently: “You should know my sword energy is very strong, after I leave, it can still slaughter the entire You family. And Li Country is not far from Sword Pavilion. Before I came, I sent a wisp of sword energy to Tianmu Peak. Sword Pavilion master Si Yu An hates evil as an enemy, with a violent temperament, what do you think his reaction will be if he knows an Equal Country Protector of the Dao is here?”
Under Bian Cheng’s mask, this pair of eyes seemed emotionless, just like this looking at Sun Yin: “If you are willing to chat with Qin Guang King, you still have a quarter of an hour. If you are not willing, you still have a quarter of an hour.”
Chu Xu emphasized again: “Gambling harms yourself and others!”
Sun Yin stared at him for a while, finally turning his head back to look at Qin Guang King, who never wore a mask.
Qin Guang King smiled again and issued an invitation: “Drink a little?”
“What did you tell them?” Sun Yin asked.
“It was him, not them, who found me alone. Age, gender, cultivation, all not detailed. But very strong, the kind that can crush me even without showing his true body.” Qin Guang King said very seriously: “He asked me if You Que is really dead, I said I don’t know. I said I can only confirm that I really killed You Que, but I can’t guarantee that his suspicion is definitely wrong.”
“Anything else?” Sun Yin’s tone was flat.
“He also asked me about the slaughter of the entire You family, I said I don’t know, we just left after killing.” Qin Guang King shrugged his shoulders: “You know, my life is completely in his hands, it’s impossible to lie to him, at most it’s just this degree.”
“Only this?” Sun Yin asked.
Qin Guang King said: “Right, he also asked about your cultivation. I said it’s not quite peak God Descend, trying to break through to Cave True during the fight, but we killed him very timely.”
Sun Yin gazed into Qin Guang King’s eyes, found no panic in them, and finally said: “Let go of Chu Xu, we’ll leave.”
Bian Cheng King’s attitude was always cold and hard: “You leave first, he will quickly follow.”
Sun Yin didn’t turn back, only looked at Qin Guang King.
And Qin Guang King said with a smile: “I can’t be his master, but I personally think his words have a little bit of truth in them — you have the right to regret, we don’t.”
“These words are very real, making it hard for me to refute.” Sun Yin said: “I appreciate your organization more and more, I really want to see what the other Yama Kings are like.”
Qin Guang King smiled broadly: “Some of the Ten Yama Kings are now in Wei Country, some in Jing Country, some in front of you, and some you absolutely don’t know where… As the leader, I can only say, it’s indeed worth appreciating.”
Sun Yin looked at him deeply, then prepared to leave: “Given the special nature of your profession, I won’t say see you again.”
“Eh, wait.” Qin Guang King fumbled in his sleeve for a while, took out a black name card with blood lines, and flew it in front of Sun Yin: “I’ll leave you an address, you can find me next time you do business. I believe you’ve already seen our professionalism.”
Sun Yin didn’t reach out to take it: “We want to kill people, we are used to killing ourselves.”
Qin Guang King’s smile didn’t change: “As the saying goes, those who hear the Dao have a before and after, those with skills have specialties. You, as a person with ideals, should focus your energy on more meaningful things.”
“I think he’s right.” Chu Xu, who was being pressed down and couldn’t move, cheered enthusiastically.
Sun Yin finally looked at his Dao friend who was buried in the ground, accepted the name card that was suspended in front of him, and strode forward.
Qin Guang King slightly turned his body, politely making way.
The two passed each other, and three steps later, Sun Yin’s body had already disappeared.
Fan Wu Shu stood on the rooftop ridge, not speaking, and not trying to regain his sense of hearing to hear anything.
The four people who fought chaotically in the capital of Li Country today, except for Chu Xu who might be in doubt, each of the others had the ability to destroy this small country alone.
This was reality.
He indeed had not bad courage, but after Sun Yin left and the danger was removed, he instead felt fear from the bottom of his heart, feeling a huge emptiness. Like this once prosperous long street, now scarred.
“Hey!”
Hell No Door’s Qin Guang King’s voice woke him up.
He lowered his head and looked down, only to see Qin Guang King on the long street, his handsome face slightly raised, and a black blood-embroidered name card flying towards his eyes.
He just didn’t know why, he heard the other side say: “If you have business, you can contact me.”
Fan Wu Shu lightly picked up the name card, not speaking. Of course, he had no plans to contact him.
And Qin Guang King had already stepped away, shouting to Bian Cheng King: “Let’s go!”
Long hair floated, steps composed, stepping over broken stones, passing by flags, gradually going far.
Bian Cheng King’s hand slowly moved away from Chu Xu’s face, then slowly stood up, just like this, wearing a cold mask and black robe, walking towards the distant sunset.
During this process, Chu Xu remained motionless — the gap between them was embodied in an instant. There was really no need to struggle.
Until he could no longer hear footsteps and his vision was only a narrow circle of orange-red sunset glow.
He then flipped out of the human-shaped stone pit.
Turning his head, he saw Fan Wu Shu on the rooftop ridge just looking at him.
He subconsciously shrank his head in embarrassment, reaching out to touch his mask… Uh, the mask was still there.
“What are you looking at!” He straightened his spine, fiercely snapped back at the impolite person from Li Country, then glared at him again, slightly looking in a direction, and flew away in the opposite direction from Hell No Door’s Yama Kings.
Fan Wu Shu didn’t say a word. Until various experts, generals, and the city guard army slowly approached, surrounding the heavily scarred long street, surrounding it airtight… He then turned around and left.
This prodigal son, who returned with nothing, once again shook his folded fan without moving.
Furthermore, Chu Xu left Li Country alone, followed secret contact, and flew all the way to a high mountain, landing on the mountaintop.
Sun Yin, wearing a tiger head mask, stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the clouds and mist.
“It’s not far from Sword Pavilion here.” Chu Xu looked left and right, feeling a little scared.
Sun Yin didn’t turn back: “They said a wisp of sword energy disturbed Tianmu Peak, did you really believe it? What kind of proper organization is Hell No Door? Wouldn’t Si Yu An kill them?”
“Mutual destruction is also possible.” Chu Xu still had lingering fears: “I think they are quite mad.”
Sun Yin rarely nodded: “They are quite mad. This Bian Cheng King is not simple, couldn’t you find his real identity?”
Chu Xu shook his head: “Not a single clue, he has made too few moves. And when he fought with me, he was also very cautious, not revealing any foundation—”
“Hmm?” Sun Yin interrupted: “Is it that he didn’t reveal any foundation, or that he fundamentally didn’t use any hand?”
“Look at you!” Chu Xu said in embarrassment: “How can we chat like this?”
Sun Yin said quite seriously: “I saw his sword technique, it doesn’t belong to any major sect now, instead it has a bit of Steal Heaven Mansion’s Hide Heaven Secret flavor. But Steal Heaven Mansion shouldn’t raise such a sword guest.”
Chu Xu also thought carefully: “I just discovered a detail, this Bian Cheng King deliberately protected Fan Wu Shu’s life. He and Fan Wu Shu should have a good relationship, at least they are acquaintances, otherwise, as an assassin, there’s no need to care about Fan Wu Shu’s life and death… Could it be Zhong Li Yan from Offer Valley? That is a true heavenly proud figure, also Fan Wu Shu’s good friend, and his temperament is also very bad.”
“This can indeed be a clue…” Sun Yin pondered: “But this is not an important matter, there’s no need for the organization to spend too much energy on this, when we have leisure, we can just verify it casually.”
Chu Xu said not very convinced: “Hey. He pressed me on the ground and smashed me, if I don’t meet him again, I must press him back.”
Sun Yin said indifferently: “In a situation that doesn’t affect the organization’s big cause… As long as you can press him down.”
“I’ll sneak attack! I’ll call Zhou Chen, Wu Si, and them to sneak attack together!” Chu Xu shouted, annoyed and ashamed: “I want to see how fierce this Zhong Li surnamed person is!”
On the perilous peak, human voices gradually faded, suddenly leaving no trace.
Just like the hurry of Equal Country’s Protectors of the Dao.
The two Yama Kings of Hell No Door, who didn’t show their faces much, also hurried away.
Although Li Country is small, located in the eastern part of the South Domain, it may have quite a few strong sects. The nearest is Sword Pavilion, a little further away is Evening Drum Academy, and even further south is the Confucian Holy Land, Book Mountain! Besides the Blood River Sect suppressing Calamity Water, the Three Punishments Palace is most fond of ‘managing idle matters’.
Don’t look at the Li Country court being silent during their chaotic battle, in the dark, they had probably sent who knows how many protest letters — this is always the way for small countries to survive.
Leaving Li Country’s border, walking straight towards the northwest direction.
The wind howled, unable to stop Qin Guang King’s words: “How did you come?”
“On the way.” Bian Cheng King said coldly.
“How was the task completed?” Qin Guang King asked again.
“Did you go kill or did I go kill?”
“You did.”
“Then don’t waste words.”
Qin Guang King shrugged again and asked: “Speaking of which, before coming to Li Country, did you really release a wisp of sword energy to provoke Tianmu Peak?”
Bian Cheng King looked at him coldly: “What do you think of my mental state?”
“Not bad.” Qin Guang King said.
“Then I won’t seek death.” Bian Cheng King said coldly: “Si Yu An is very narrow-minded. If I really sent a wisp of sword energy to kill past, he would definitely chase the sword energy and kill over, and he wouldn’t stop until he eradicated the entire Hell No Door.”
“A True Monarch is still so narrow-minded?” Qin Guang King was a little surprised: “Are you very familiar with him?”
“Generally.” Bian Cheng King said faintly: “We have opposed each other sharply, and we have also traveled together with swords.”
Qin Guang King let out an ‘oh’.
He walked with big strides in the wind, fumbling in his bosom, finding a half-deflated paper box, opening the lid, the Zen face crisps inside were actually not broken.
He handed it to Bian Cheng King: “Eat some?”
Bian Cheng King was even too lazy to give him a glance: “Don’t bother.”
