Chapter 542: Chapter 531: Danger, A Deadly Struggle
At this mont, so people had already boarded this wooden boat.
When these two people ca up, many faces showed a look of disdain.
Qin An followed the gaze of these people and saw the true faces of these two.
He saw the Alliance Hierarch and Zhang Tianyi walking up with grim expressions and slowly sitting down in the corner of the wooden boat.
The people around the wooden boat were all friends of the Dragon Palace, and the Dragon Palace had given them many benefits.
And the so-called benefits were the pills refined by Qin An.
In other words, they had also been exploited quite a bit by the Alchemy Master Alliance.
Because of this, they showed such disdain.
And the fact that these two boarded the boat naturally caught the attention of Princess Long San and Long Tianxing.
The two were about to step forward and let Qin An disembark first, but the dragon demon steering the boat was unaware of this. With a push of the bamboo pole in his hand, the boat turned into a stream of light and disappeared at the end of the water.
At this mont, Princess Long San and Long Tianxing exchanged a glance, both seeing the urgency in each other’s eyes.
"This is not good, they must be targeting Qin An, though I can’t figure out their exact purpose."
Princess Long San said solemnly.
Long Tianxing gritted his teeth and said, "Should we report to the Old Dragon King imdiately and have that wooden boat stopped?
Princess Long San shook her head and said, "It can’t be stopped. The wooden boats in the Dragon Palace are made with special secret techniques and have cost us a fortune. Even if Father intervenes, he won’t be able to stop it."
As these words were spoken, Long Tianxing’s expression beca even more grim.
Princess Long San sighed deeply, "I hope Qin An has divine protection, but if the Alchemy Master Alliance is indeed targeting Qin An, I fear they have prepared thoroughly. Now, we can only hope Qin An will be alright."
The wooden boat couldn’t be stopped, and now Qin An had already left with it.
They understood in their hearts that perhaps everything could only be left to fate now.
Long Tianxing gritted his teeth and said, "Let’s go back first, Princess. Now that the birthday celebration is over, we still have many things to wrap up."
Princess Long San, hearing these words, didn’t say any more and then left this place with Long Tianxing.
The wooden boat transford into a stream of light, the scenery around it rapidly receding.
Qin An only felt that familiar dizziness return, but it was only for a very short ti before it disappeared completely.
He found himself beside a river.
Beside the river, the sound of birds singing and the scent of flowers filled the air, with lush trees and vegetation.
As the wooden boat slowly steadied, so people began to disembark one after another.
Qin An’s gaze stopped on the Alliance Hierarch and Zhang Tianyi.
The two seed as if they hadn’t seen Qin An, disembarking the boat by themselves.
After pondering briefly, Qin An followed them off the boat, determined his direction, and headed towards the Evil Extermination Bureau.
As for those two just now, Qin An remained cautious, but since they hadn’t caused any trouble, he couldn’t figure out what they were planning.
However, now in the deserted countryside, Qin An didn’t linger much. He focused his Void Essence to the extre, maximizing his Body Technique, and beca a series of shadows, rushing forward.
At this ti, not far behind Qin An, the Alliance Hierarch and Zhang Tianyi, after consuming a large amount of pills, were quietly following him at a speed no less than his.
Their faces were grim, but there was a subtle murderous aura flowing around them.
"Keep up, don’t lose him, this is a once-in-a-lifeti opportunity," Zhang Tianyi said in a cold tone.
The Alliance Hierarch nodded, "I’ve already inford Yu Tian and Qingxuan, and they’re swiftly bringing people over. With the combined strength of the three parties, he will undoubtedly die."
Not long ago, Zhang Tianyi went to the Qingxuan Bird Clan, found Qingxuan, and disclosed all information about Qin An to the Qingxuan Bird Clan.
When Zhang Tianyi was about to leave, Yu Tian from the Seven-Colored Fish Sect also ca looking for him.
Upon learning that the Seven-Colored Fish Sect also had a grudge with Qin An, Zhang Tianyi quickly ford an alliance with the two demons.
Subsequently, the Alliance Hierarch learned from various sources about the Dragon Palace’s invitation to Qin An.
Thus, they planned to go to the Dragon Palace with Zhang Tianyi, pretending to celebrate the Dragon King’s birthday.
In truth, it was to track Qin An, find his location, and report the information to Yu Tian and Qingxuan.
Now, their plan was more than half complete, and the reason they were hanging back was to wait for the arrival of Qingxuan and Yu Tian.
The sky was extraordinarily clear, the bright sun bringing a bit of warmth to the cold winter.
At this ti, Qin An was quickly racing forward.
But at this mont, he sensed sothing unusual.
Two intense pressures descended from the sky, causing him to stop abruptly.
Along with the intense pressure, two figures appeared swiftly.
These two figures exuded a terrifying pressure, landing steadily in front of Qin An.
Qin An raised an eyebrow, "Two Elent Transformation Realm demons, interesting."
As soon as he finished this sentence, there was the sound of footsteps from behind.
He turned around and saw the Alliance Hierarch and Zhang Tianyi blocking his rear.
"And two masters at Shattering Void Realm Perfection, indeed impressive. It seems today I’m bound to die."
The Alliance Hierarch and Zhang Tianyi didn’t speak.
Yu Tian squinted and said, "I have one question. Did the catfish demon and my brother Yu Jiu die by your hand?"
"You’re from the Seven-Colored Fish Sect, I see. I won’t deny or pretend; those two demons did indeed die by my hand. They died rather miserably at the ti."
Yu Tian was not provoked by Qin An’s words and nodded, "Then grudges have their root, and debts have their owner."
Qingxuan stepped forward, "Is my brother Qingyu’s death related to you?"
Qin An shook his head, "He died at the hands of the Silver Dao Marshal. However, he tried to unleash a violent wind which I completely thwarted. If you view this as a grudge, feel free to make a move against ."
Qingxuan sneered, "My brother went in search of the heart of the violent wind with a death wish. He intended to perish together with his target. Since you thwarted his plan to die together, you naturally have a grudge with the Qingxuan Bird Clan."
The two spoke back and forth, seemingly passing a death sentence on Qin An.
Qin An turned to look at the Alliance Hierarch and Zhang Tianyi, "And you two? Do you wish to settle our grudges today as well?"
The Alliance Hierarch sighed, "Mr. Qin, I had no intention of offending the Evil Extermination Bureau, but your actions have gone too far. The profit from the pills is not sothing you can share in. You should just wield the knife for the Evil Extermination Bureau."
Zhang Tianyi sneered, "Why waste words with him? If he’s dared to ddle in our profits, then let the Copper Dao Marshal die."
Qin An listened to the words of these four people and nodded, "It seems the depths of Tianyun Dao are beyond my imagination. Even I cannot avoid falling into a trap. Alright, today since you want to make a move against , let’s see whether it’s you or
who will die."
As Qin An drew his blade, Yu Tian’s face showed a sardonic expression.
"A re Void Shattering Realm little thing, attempting to survive in front of two Elent Transformation Realm fiends, is utterly laughable."
Qing Xuan stepped forward, the gale around him resembling sharp knives: "If you take your own life now, everything would still be in ti, and you wouldn’t have to suffer."
But before he finished his words, Qin An had already unleashed Cold Star.
The Nine-Colored Void Essence could be seen wrapping around Cold Star at an observable speed.
Qin An raised his hand and displayed the might of Three Blades Unite.
But when Three Blades Unite converged and slashed at the gale, it was effortlessly neutralized.
Qing Xuan shook his head regretfully and said, "What a pity, this move is indeed formidable. However, if you were to use it at the Elent Transformation Realm, I would have so apprehension. But you’re rely at the Void Shattering Realm, so I’m completely unafraid."
Qin An looked at the Three Blades Unification Secret Skill being easily neutralized and suddenly said, "I see, it seems I’m still a bit short of reaching the Elent Transformation Realm, but it doesn’t matter."
"What do you an by it doesn’t matter?" Yu Tian transford into an afterimage, appearing in front of Qin An, his palm overflowing with terrifying water flow.
Under the compression of the water flow, a palm imprint ford and pressed toward Qin An’s head.
"Do you know you’re about to die, so you’re just talking nonsense here?"
The palm wind was fierce, and as it was about to land on Qin An’s head, Qin An’s expression remained calm.
He did not utter a single word, simply staring at the palm imprint descending.
Until the palm imprint landed on his forehead, Qin An suddenly spoke.
"I’ve taken note of this grudge today. Neither the Colored Fish Sect nor the Qing Xuan Bird Clan should expect to escape."
With these words, the palm imprint ford by the water flow had already landed on Qin An’s head.
Yet in the next mont, Qin An’s body turned into a cloud of ashes.
Yu Tian watched Qin An turn to ashes under his hand and frowned.
Qing Xuan stepped forward and said, "All grievances are now settled. I don’t wish to remain here much longer. My friends, I’m taking my leave."
The Alliance Hierarch and Zhang Tianyi relaxed.
Seeing Qin An turn to ashes with their own eyes let the stone in their hearts fall completely.
Yu Tian remained silent.
At this mont, Qing Xuan frowned and asked, "Have you discovered sothing else?"
He was a creature of the sky, inherently unrelated to the creatures of the water.
If not for Qin An, they would never have joined forces.
Thus, Qing Xuan’s tone was slightly cold.
Yu Tian snapped back to reality and shook his head, "Nothing, he’s indeed dead."
He knew clearly that his palm just now had indeed ground Qin An and everything he was in into ashes.
Dead beyond dead.
Yet a thought flickered in Yu Tian’s mind.
Would such a genius really die so simply?
But this thought was fleeting, quickly dismissed.
Given such desperate circumstances, no matter the extraordinary talent, life could not escape.
Yu Tian said, "Then, I’m leaving too."
He was originally a sea creature, here to complete the Colored Fish Sect’s task, and incidentally to avenge his brother.
Now that the task was completed, he wouldn’t return to the Colored Fish Sect for now but planned to wander among various waters.
Therefore, he didn’t wish to linger here.
Soon, Qing Xuan and Yu Tian each left.
The Alliance Hierarch and Zhang Tianyi exchanged a glance, able to see a trace of horror in each other’s eyes.
"Qin An is dead, we can resu our grand plan for alchemy." Zhang Tianyi laughed heartily.
The Alliance Hierarch hesitated, "But what if Princess Long San sees us board the ship, will it be dangerous? After all, she knows about our enmity with Qin An?"
"With him dead, there’s no evidence." Zhang Tianyi shook his head, "We just firmly deny it, right?"
"Alright, let’s go back to celebrate a bit, then discuss how to raise pill prices for a big profit."
"Right, don’t sell to the Dragon Palace, no matter the price."
The Alliance Hierarch dismissed his worries, nodded, and said, "Indeed, no matter the price, we don’t sell. Let’s go back and celebrate a bit."
The two no longer lingered and headed toward Tianyun Dao.
...
At this mont, while everyone believed Qin An was surely dead, a hundred miles from the scene, a figure gradually coalesced.
Qin An looked at the dim substitute needle and shook his head slightly, "The dangers of Tianyun Dao are deeper than I imagined. Luckily, I have the substitute needle. But I also know who truly wants to make a move against ."
"Next, none of these people can escape."
After determining his direction, he activated his body technique again, his figure darting toward Tianyun Dao at ghostly speed.
Ti passed.
Gradually, the sky turned to afternoon.
As Qin An returned to the Evil Extermination Bureau, he headed straight to Lord Zhu’s courtyard.
At this mont, Lord Zhu was reviewing today’s reports. Upon sensing footsteps, she looked up in surprise and asked.
"What brings you here?"
She knew Qin An’s character well.
Normally, he wouldn’t co to her place.
Thus, Qin An’s purpose in coming here intrigued Lord Zhu.
With a fierce stride like a tiger, Qin An approached Lord Zhu, his eyes suddenly sharp like knives: "Lord Zhu, if soone makes a move against , provoking the Evil Extermination Bureau’s dignity, what cri should be charged?"
