At that mont.
Upstairs in the small inn.
Han Qingying looked at the shabby sofa, the mottled walls, and the sanitary napkins stained with water, and sat on the edge of the bed with a frown, feeling uncomfortable all over.
She was born into a great family, pampered from childhood, and had never stayed in such a poor environnt.
She planned to just make do and get through the night, and then go to Han Bing's villa the next day to take a good bath and get so sleep.
A few minutes later.
Tap tap....
Very light footsteps ca from outside the window.
Han Qingying had already concealed all her breath, only her eyes narrowed slightly.
Imdiately afterward, a shadowy figure with a covered face flashed and appeared in the room, saying in a deep voice, "Yan Mingyu, you tried to hide, but I still found you. Tonight, I will cut open your face to make Qin Yu, that bastard, die of heartache!"
As soon as the masked person finished speaking, his wrist flicked, and he produced a sharp dagger, slashing towards Han Qingying's face.
"What does this an, this person's target is Yan Mingyu?"
After a mont of confusion, Han Qingying swiftly drew her Soft Sword from her hand with a swoosh.
At once, a beam of sword light charged directly at the chest of the masked person.
"You're not Yan Mingyu?"
The masked person's voice was sowhat indignant as he hastily retreated.
"Who I am is none of your business, creeping around furtively, definitely up to no good!"
Han Qingying had been frustrated lately with no outlet for her anger. Seeing that the man in black seed to have decent skills, she imdiately unleashed her sword light, bringing out her full fighting strength.
"Channel-Opening Realm!"
The masked person's voice showed so surprise when he saw that Han Qingying's moves targeted his vital points. With a wave of his hands, a swirling mass of air with a suction force appeared in front of his chest.
Indeed, it was Helian Wudi's Formless Divine Skill.
Under normal circumstances, his usage of the Formless Divine Skill could clash head-on with an opponent in the later stages of Pill Holding.
But Han Qingying was too strong. She was not only in the Channel-Opening Realm but also wielded a weapon.
As the battle progressed, Helian Wudi's Formless Divine Skill couldn't manifest its full power.
Puchi....
After only briefly resisting Han Qingying's sword light, his defense was breached, and a wound deep enough to reveal bone appeared on his chest.
"Who exactly are you?"
Helian Wudi was gripped by fear. At his level and status, he was even more reluctant to risk his life than the average person.
While retreating towards the window, he angrily demanded an answer.
"My na, you're not worthy to know!"
The Soft Sword in Han Qingying's hand kept transforming, releasing sharp sword qi that swept towards Helian Wudi.
His Formless Divine Skill was powerful indeed, but being only at the mid-stage of Pill Holding, he could not possibly be an opponent for Han Qingying, who was in the Channel-Opening Realm.
In an oversight, his shoulder and arm were struck by two more swords, blood continuously spurting out.
"Good, very good... I indeed underestimated this youngster. There will be another ti!"
Helian Wudi gritted his teeth and, after throwing a powerful punch, the air in the room churned violently.
If he didn't run now, he might end up staying here this evening.
"Hmph...is that all!"
Han Qingying snorted coldly. Since the target was not herself, she couldn't be bothered to chase. Alone as she was, she genuinely feared encountering those two Dual Cultivation experts from Blissful Hall.
After sheathing her Soft Sword, she stood by the window for a mont. Helian Wudi was already running towards the other end of the alley, holding his chest.
"Damn, I almost capsized in the gutter!"
After running for a while and seeing that Han Qingying did not pursue, Helian Wudi finally breathed a sigh of relief. He took out a healing pill from his bosom, popped it into his mouth, and with his face covering removed, his expression was dark enough to drip water.
"Helian Wudi, it's really you!"
He had only just reached the entrance of the alley when a tall figure appeared.
"Qin Yu, you clever little bastard, you tricked into your trap!"
Helian Wudi stared at Qin Yu with a chilling gaze.
"I never got any relics from Li Jiutian. Why are you so persistent, chasing all the way to Jinling?"
Qin Yu spoke as he walked into the alley.
He truly hadn't expected that the person hiding in the shadows was Helian Wudi. His target had been the relics of Li Jiutian, so why would he attack the woman by his side?
Even if he faced him head-on, he wasn't his opponent, was he?
"Let's set aside the matter of Li Jiutian's relics for now. Tell , did Wu i tip you off in advance that night at the Fengyun Manor?"
Helian Wudi asked in a low voice.
"Why don't you reflect on why Wu i would betray you?"
Qin Yu did not deny it and realized in his heart why Helian Wudi had kept pursuing him to Jinling; it was most likely related to Wu i's death.
That is to say, Helian Wudi still cared about Wu i, so he attacked the woman beside Qin Yu, wanting him to also experience the pain of losing a loved one.
"It's not your place to point fingers at my actions. Now that we have t, only one of us will leave here standing!"
Helian Wudi had also realized that Qin Yu's intelligence was not below his own, and continuing to target his won could likely lead to more traps waiting for him.
It would be better to kill this youngster tonight and avenge Wu i.
"I have the sa idea!"
Qin Yu loosened up his wrists and walked toward Helian Wudi.
After breaking through the Pill Holding stage, he could distinctly feel that his cultivation was progressing slowly, and only through battles of life and death could he enhance and refine his cultivation.
Moreover, without getting rid of Helian Wudi, he wouldn't be able to concentrate on dealing with the two Dual Cultivation experts from the Blissful Hall.
"Co on, defeated foe!"
Helian Wudi, despite being injured, was still very confident in his own abilities.
But he did not underestimate his opponent, as he waved his hands, his Protective True Qi enveloping his entire body, and he got into a starting stance, a faint spinning flow of qi appearing before him.
"Heartbreak Technique!"
Qin Yu didn't hesitate, stepping forward in a swift motion and unleashing the Seven Injuries Fist. With Helian Wudi already injured, this was the best opportunity to finish him off.
Bang...
Soon, Qin Yu's punch felt as though it hit a spider web, as if all his strength was being absorbed.
He knew that in the next second, the force he had unleashed would rebound back at him.
This was the marvel of Helian Wudi's Formless Divine Skill.
So, after throwing that punch, Qin Yu pointed his toes and flipped over Helian Wudi's head.
Boom...
Helian Wudi pushed with both hands, and the rebounding force whipped up a wild airflow in the alley, lifting so trash into the air.
Being injured, his combat effectiveness was definitely reduced, at best only as strong as soone at the early stage of Pill Holding, roughly equal to Qin Yu.
"Co again!"
Helian Wudi turned around, and Qin Yu had just landed, pulling and pushing with his hands, the force generated by the Formless Divine Skill enveloped him like a fishing net.
Asura Finger!
This ti, Qin Yu didn't hold back at all and simply flicked his finger.
Whoosh...
Helian Wudi felt a fierce surge of True Qi, like an arrow released from a bowstring, instantly colliding with the gusts of his own force.
Continuously tearing through his defenses, it was about to strike his forehead.
"Block it for !"
Helian Wudi's face reddened as he continuously circulated his True Qi to strengthen his defense.
Bang...
Even then, he felt as if his forehead had been struck with a hamr, and he tumbled backward.
A line of blood trickled down from his brow.
"Helian Wudi, you've lost!"
Qin Yu let out a sigh of relief and walked toward Helian Wudi.
Boom...
But at that mont, an unexpected change occurred.
Another figure with a covered face jumped down from the surrounding wall and threw a punch at Qin Yu's back.
