Chapter 188: Chapter 178: Lianyu’s Secret
In the deep cave, Elder Monkey’s voice pierced like an ice spike, sending chills down one’s spine.
Even if it was just a re shadow, it was ultimately a strong figure at the Pulse Condensation Realm, and its aura was naturally incomparable to the Gui Cang Realm.
Qin An was stared at by the chilling expression, but he was indifferent to the cold gaze, his lips curled into a mocking smile: "Ends of the Earth?"
"With just your residual shadow, what can you do to ?"
Elder Monkey’s aura suddenly paused, his overwhelming presence completely restrained: "If you are willing to release her, I could ask the Hall Master to revoke the kill order, allowing you to roam freely in Lingzhou."
"Heh." Upon hearing this, Qin An’s lips slightly raised: "First threats, then enticent, the Demon Hall and I have long been mortal adversaries. Such crude tricks, better reserved for coaxing a three-year-old child."
Elder Monkey’s eyes grew ever more sinister: "You will die very miserably."
Qin An raised his Cold Star, the blade reflecting a grim smile: "But right now, I’m living well."
The two sides were already sworn enemies; if such trivial matters could cause the Demon Hall to lift their warrant against him, then they wouldn’t be called the Demon Hall.
It’s nothing more than a common tactic of threats and enticents, sothing Qin An had seen many tis.
If he could make the enemy uncomfortable, he himself felt content.
It has been proven that this woman nad Lianyu must have vital importance to the Demon Hall.
In that case, she certainly couldn’t be left to the Demon Hall.
The atmosphere in the cave seed to freeze.
Elder Monkey took several deep breaths, his shadow gradually faded, eventually transforming into a resentful low growl: "Just wait, today’s incident will certainly cost you your life."
He was a clever person; otherwise, he wouldn’t be the Demon Hall’s strategist.
In the instant of exchanging with Qin An, he knew Qin An would never let Lianyu go.
Further conversation would only be self-humiliation.
"How many tis has it been?"
Before Elder Monkey’s shadow vanished, he mused: "Qin An has repeatedly disrupted my plans; it seems eliminating him must be placed as the top priority."
With that thought, Elder Monkey’s shadow completely disappeared.
After Elder Monkey’s figure vanished, Qin An wiped his forehead, discovering a thin layer of sweat on his palm.
Even a re shadow still exerted intense pressure.
This kind of seasoned Pulse Condensation Realm figure was not just any ordinary Pulse Condensation Realm that could be compared.
"When I break through the realm, I will definitely personally sever this old monkey’s head."
Qin An gazed into the void, thinking to himself.
At this mont, Lianyu, who was subdued by Qin An, suddenly moaned softly, slowly waking up.
The seductive charm on her had vanished quite a bit, and she had regained her consciousness.
Yet, the inadvertent allure in her eyes was enough to ensnare any man into a state of infatuation.
Qin An spoke lightly: "If you leave Huaiyun County, what will happen to your flower boat?"
Lianyu’s face bore a look of bewildernt.
She knew nothing of what had happened before.
But as soon as Qin An asked this question, Lianyu imdiately understood.
"The flower boat is my essence; I cannot leave it for too long. But if you want to take
away, I can sail the flower boat away."
Every word Lianyu spoke was extrely cautious, fearing any mistake would incite Qin An’s fury.
Earlier, Qin An’s terrifying slash that killed the Fox Demon had already instilled boundless fear within her.
Qin An rubbed the handle of Cold Star, pondering slightly, then said: "After tonight, then sail your flower boat with
to Lingzhou."
Lingzhou had many waterways, so sailing the flower boat indeed allowed proximity to Lingzhou.
Originally, Qin An’s plan was to subdue Lianyu, then settle her in Huaiyun County, waiting for the state officer to co and clean up.
This could save him quite a bit of ti.
But this matter was related to Elder Monkey, and judging by the situation, it was very significant.
Given its importance, Qin An naturally had to take her to Lingzhou and leave her to Yang Quanfeng and the others for handling.
If clues could be found, dealing a heavy blow to the Demon Hall, it would naturally be sothing Qin An was pleased to see.
"This young lady obeys."
Lianyu agreed softly, not daring to show any dissent.
Qin An nodded slightly, grabbing Lianyu by the neck, heading out of the cave.
...
The Demon Hall.
At the edge of the cliff, the moon and stars were sparse.
The waning moon was like a hook, shining on Elder Monkey’s hunched figure.
Elder Monkey bent over the battered human woman, gasping heavily.
The human woman was already unconscious, without a single intact spot on her body.
Beside him, led by the Tiger Demon, many demon creatures hung their heads, silent as cicadas in a cold winter, not daring to spare another glance.
After a long ti, the unconscious human woman let out a wretched scream, her life force gradually dissipating.
Elder Monkey opened his mouth, revealing a mouthful of fangs, his head swelling in the wind.
He gulped the human woman down, his expression still extrely gloomy.
The cold wind swept through, making the Tiger Demon and all other demon beings shiver.
The Tiger Demon understood in his heart that anyone who could make Elder Monkey so angry was certainly not a simple character.
They were rely subordinates, not daring to utter a word, only waiting for Elder Monkey to gradually calm down.
Elder Monkey took several deep breaths, picked up the wine pot on the table, and suddenly smashed it on the ground.
"Bang!"
The ground showed a deep pit, and the wine pot shattered on impact.
A demon creature quickly ca forward, handing Elder Monkey a new wine pot.
Elder Monkey raised his hand again, smashing the wine pot on the ground.
After more than a dozen tis, the ground was already covered with fragnts of wine pots.
It was only then that Elder Monkey gradually cald down.
"Qin! An!"
The na was pronounced with grinding intensity.
Elder Monkey’s shriveled claws dug deep into the rock wall: "Multiple tis you have ruined my plans, this ti you caused
significant losses!"
"I will surely kill you!"
The Tiger Demon was slightly taken aback, not expecting that Qin An was the one who made Elder Monkey so angry.
He scratched his head and stepped forward.
"Elder, if Qin An isn’t eliminated, it’s nothing but harm for us in the Demon Hall, perhaps we should eliminate him first."
Elder Monkey’s gaze swept over the Tiger Demon, speaking coldly: "Place eliminating him as the top priority!"
"Imdiately inform the entire Demon Hall, whoever can take Qin An’s head will be rewarded with a Geocore Crystal!"
The Tiger Demon widened his eyes, a trace of greed appearing.
The demons in the martial world all said that whoever could take Qin An’s head would receive significant rewards from Elder Monkey.
But rumors remained rumors; without Elder Monkey’s personal confirmation, many demons rely watched the scene.
Now that Elder Monkey said it personally, even offering a Geocore Crystal as an incentive.
I’m afraid quite a few demonic creatures might be stirred into action.
After all, even the Demonic Hall doesn’t have many earth vein crystals.
The Tiger Demon pondered whether he should give it a try himself.
At this mont, Elder Monkey slowly stood up and walked down the cliff.
The Tiger Demon snapped out of his thoughts and respectfully asked, "Elder, where are you heading? Do you need
to accompany you?"
Elder Monkey turned his head, his tone incredibly stern, "The grand plan has been thwarted. I am going to the Hall Master to confess and accept punishnt."
The Tiger Demon stood in a daze until Elder Monkey disappeared behind the cliff before he reacted.
Beside him, a small demon involuntarily said, "Even Elder Monkey has to confess, what exactly did Qin An do?"
The Tiger Demon slapped the small demon’s face, "Say no more, ask no more, or you won’t live long."
The small demon was startled and dared not speak further.
Soon, the cliff returned to normal, with only the cold wind constantly blowing.
...
Lingzhou, Evil Extermination Bureau.
In the room where Yang Quanfeng was located.
Qin An had already co out from inside.
As for Yang Quanfeng and the nine Jinzhou lieutenants, they were currently surrounding Lianyu asking questions.
After returning to the Evil Extermination Bureau, he brought Lianyu here.
The flower boat was anchored by the river not far north of Lingzhou, and all the won onboard were taken by the Evil Extermination Bureau.
As for the outco, the Evil Extermination Bureau had its own set of procedures to handle it.
By this ti, night had fallen, and Qin An didn’t stay long in Yang Quanfeng’s courtyard.
Once there’s news, soone will naturally inform him.
Although today’s battle wasn’t thrilling, it was sowhat tiring, so it’s better to return early to rest.
After returning to his room, Qin An lit the oil lamp on the table.
Under the light of the lamp, he took out an earth vein crystal from his bosom, channeling True Qi into it.
As the True Qi transitioned, the earth vein crystal turned into mist and rged into his body.
After the vast earth vein power surged in, it imdiately began refining Qin An’s sixth main ridian.
"Just two more, and I can safely enhance the Heart thod and enter the Pulse Condensation Realm."
After experiencing the purer True Qi, Qin An thought to himself, "But there’s no rush tonight, I should rest for a while."
He had already figured out the location of the other two earth veins through the array, though neither had fully transford into earth vein crystals, Qin An could wait a little longer.
It was already very late and Qin An needed to conserve enough energy.
The enmity with the Demonic Hall deepened, they might stop at nothing to deal with him.
If he fell into a trap due to a slight lack of energy, Qin An would feel it was a real loss.
Thinking of this, Qin An lay down on the bed, clutched the Cold Star, and gradually fell asleep.
...
The next day.
When the first rays of morning sunlight shone in, Qin An was awakened by a knock at the door.
"Who is it?"
Qin An grasped the Cold Star in reverse, stood up, and asked.
Outside the door, the voice of an Internal Affairs Departnt state official sounded.
"Lord, Mr. Yang has investigated the background of that Pseudo-God."
Qin An nodded slightly, "I am aware, you may withdraw."
Qin An had never been disappointed with the efficiency of the Evil Extermination Bureau.
He was now being called to the residence concerning the clues about Lianyu.
The Internal Affairs Departnt state official dared not slacken in the slightest and quickly left Qin An’s room.
Qin An washed up briefly, changed into clean black clothes, and stepped out with the Cold Star hanging at his waist, heading towards Yang Quanfeng’s location.
...
Yang Quanfeng’s courtyard.
At this mont, the nine Jinzhou lieutenants looked solemn as they waited in the courtyard.
Lianyu kept her head down, only daring to stare at the ground, not saying a word.
After coming to the Evil Extermination Bureau last night, a Jinzhou lieutenant kept guard over her.
She learned that the Jinzhou lieutenant watching her was nad Wan Ziqing, although she was a woman, her presence was extrely cold.
Although Lianyu ca from a family, it was not an illustrious family, and she had never seen such a display.
Being able to sit calmly now was already not easy.
She knew these prestigious Jinzhou lieutenants were waiting for soone, probably that mountain patrol officer.
Whenever she thought of that officer, Lianyu couldn’t help but shiver.
Unlike the Jinzhou lieutenants who adhered to so rules, the mountain patrol officer, who kills without crossing, was the nesis of all demons and Pseudo-Gods.
If it wasn’t for having clues about the Demonic Hall, she feared that last night her head would have been taken by that officer.
While she felt fortunate, the fear was greater.
A sound of footsteps ca.
The nine Jinzhou lieutenants, with Yang Quanfeng in the lead, quickly turned to look at the entrance of the courtyard.
Qin An entered leisurely, with the Cold Star at his waist, finding a place to sit by himself.
His actions, though simple, drew the attention of the Jinzhou lieutenants.
Especially Lianyu, who thought she had adapted, began to tremble violently again as if she couldn’t stop like a sieve when Qin An walked in.
Qin An took a sip of tea, raised his eyes, and asked, "What are the clues?"
He did not beat around the bush and went straight to the topic.
Knowing the clues, if they were useful, naturally, there would be further plans.
If they were useless, he would set off imdiately to find the next earth vein.
Yang Quanfeng nodded slightly, knowing Qin An wasn’t one to waste ti, he pointed to Lianyu, and slowly said, "This woman, although now a Pseudo-God, is also a Pure Yin Enchantnt Body."
Qin An frowned and asked, "What is a Pure Yin Enchantnt Body?"
It was the first ti he had heard of this term, and even from browsing through miscellaneous books from the Confidential Library, he had never co across it.
Yang Quanfeng tapped the table with his finger, "A virginal woman born in a yin year, month, day, and ti, can beco a Pure Yin Enchantnt Body with the aid of an Evil Qi Secret Skill."
Qin An nodded slightly, "That indeed is rare."
Not to ntion anything else, the circumstance of the birth alone is extrely difficult to control.
Yang Quanfeng continued, "The Pure Yin Enchantnt Body is especially favored by demonic creatures, and rging with such a body can elevate bloodlines and offer supre pleasures."
"The Demonic Hall created such a physique, surely they have a purpose."
"Last night, we deliberated carefully and finally concluded on one possibility."
At this point, Yang Quanfeng’s gaze beca serious.
"This woman might be a gift for a certain demon."
