Chapter 2585 Xuewu Qin Family

First update, asking for subscriptions and monthly tickets~~~

...

As soon as the opponent made a move, he immediately reacted... Instead of confronting head-on, he dodged, avoiding Hu Yiren's deadly attack, then seized the opportunity to pounce forward, using both hands to grab and immediately entangle Hu Yiren's arms!

"Hmm?"

Hu Yiren was also slightly taken aback, not expecting the Mercenary King, Ling Hu, to be prepared, making his seemingly sure-kill strike miss.

Bang bang bang~~

Hu Yiren quickly attacked again, with every punch and every palm strike being extremely fierce, trying to force the Mercenary King, Ling Hu, away... He noticed that over on Qingyuan's side, someone had taken a hit, and the injuries were serious. If he didn't provide support soon, it would be dangerous.

"Hehe, want to leave? You'll have to get past me first..."

The Mercenary King, Ling Hu, wasn't easy to deal with either. He didn't confront Hu Yiren forcefully; his counterattacks were soft, aiming mainly to stall Hu Yiren... Each time, he either grabbed or held him back, never giving Hu Yiren a chance to escape.

"Where do you think you're going?"

At this moment, Qin Fang also leaped out from that big pit, chasing after Elder Qingyuan, who was trying to escape in mid-air...

Even though his earlier strike almost killed Elder Qingyuan, a Great Grandmaster Level expert's protective Gang Qi was formidable, especially for someone like Elder Qingyuan, who was at the Great Grandmaster Level Peak, nearly reaching the Supreme Realm; that was quite abnormal.

"Damn..."

Seeing this scene, Hu Yiren's face turned livid with anger. With an immensely strong palm strike, he pushed back the Mercenary King, Ling Hu, trying to break away from this side... But before he could even take a step, the Mercenary King, Ling Hu, caught up with him again.

And each move he made was a deadly killer move. If Hu Yiren dared to underestimate even a little, the result would certainly be tragic... The Mercenary King, Ling Hu, who was also a Grandmaster-level Peak Expert, renowned for assassination, excelled in one-hit-kills; even someone as strong as Hu Yiren had to be cautious.

"Looking for death..."

But having his actions repeatedly thwarted by the Mercenary King, Ling Hu, Hu Yiren was thoroughly infuriated, his Gang Qi violently surging, and the fierce aura he emitted was intimidating... The violent energy aura around his body directly formed a powerful storm of Gang Qi.

This was a secret technique mastered only by those who had reached the Great Grandmaster Level Peak...

Though Qin Fang's strength had reached the level where he could easily defeat Grandmaster Level Peak experts, he didn't know such a secret technique... He simply didn't have enough Gang Qi to utilize it.

"This is useless to me..."

However, the Mercenary King, Ling Hu, was not easy to handle either. He coldly shouted, also shaking his protective Gang Qi, and similarly stirred up a layer of Gang Qi storm... His aim was not to kill the enemy but to gradually deplete Hu Yiren's Gang Qi.

The situation over on Qingyuan's side was dire; having taken another heavy hit from Qin Fang, he was not far from death... As long as he delayed here, Qin Fang could soon kill Elder Qingyuan, and once they regrouped, Hu Yiren would be in danger.

"Initially, I had doubts about calculating against you all, but... you actually planned to burn bridges, kill, and silence! Then don't blame me for being impolite!"

Thinking of this, the Mercenary King, Ling Hu, couldn't help but feel a bit angry.

He had been in the mercenary business for many years and had always valued reputation greatly...

As long as the employer honestly paid the commission, he would do his best to complete the task... But if the employer burned bridges like this, the Mercenary King, Ling Hu, wouldn't be polite!

There had been such employers in the past, but after he exterminated them, they practically stopped appearing, and the Mercenary King, Ling Hu, tried to use intermediary platforms for transactions...

This time, if not for the fact that Hu Yiren could not trade the elixir through an intermediary platform, and the task needed personal verification, he wouldn't have given the opponent such an opportunity... However, Qin Fang's defection saved his life.

With Hu Yiren's strength, he alone was already enough to threaten the life of the Mercenary King, Ling Hu. Adding in Elder Qingyuan, who wasn't much weaker, his chances of being killed were more than seventy or eighty percent.

"Damn! I'll tear you apart..."

Upon hearing the Mercenary King, Ling Hu's words, Hu Yiren's face turned extremely ugly, and he roared in anger.

In truth, at first, he hadn't really planned to burn bridges and kill to silence. It was just when he saw the Mercenary King, Ling Hu's pale face, seemingly heavily injured, that he was tempted.

That elixir was extremely precious, and even he had only one piece.

To obtain that drop of Azure Heart, Hu Yiren paid a huge price... Besides this elixir, he also had to give Elder Qingyuan substantial benefits to reach their cooperation.

However, realizing that he could save the elixir if he eliminated the Mercenary King, Ling Hu, Hu Yiren was naturally very happy... So, he seized the opportunity and struck boldly.

Unfortunately, this strike backfired...

First, Qin Fang and the Mercenary King, Ling Hu, were partners, setting this trap for the two of them.

Second, the Mercenary King, Ling Hu, had already been on guard... This crisis awareness was a must for any mercenary, and it applied to everyone. But Hu Yiren foolishly ran into it, hitting the muzzle, and the last bit of guilt the Mercenary King, Ling Hu, had disappeared.

"Die..."

At that moment, Qin Fang soared into the air, shouted angrily, and then unleashed his strength completely, striking heavily at Elder Qingyuan...

"No..."

Even though the palm energy hadn't reached yet, Elder Qingyuan seemed to realize something, his old face twisted in horror, screaming mournfully. At this moment, he was extremely unwilling, and his heart was filled with regret.

Unfortunately, it's too late to regret now...

Bang~~~

Qin Fang's palm, violent to the extreme, slammed onto Elder Qingyuan's chest... That raging energy aura not only instantly destroyed Elder Qingyuan's pitiful protective Gang Qi but also directly shattered his heart meridian.

"Ah..."

A piercing scream echoed... Elder Qingyuan's shriveled body swiftly flew downward from mid-air!

Once the heart meridian is severed, even a deity can't save him!

He couldn't finish even the last shred of sound in his life, abruptly silenced... His body heavily crashed onto the ground, creating a particularly deep crater and kicking up a strong dust storm.

"No..."

This scene naturally caught Hu Yiren's eyes, and he shouted bitterly.

But alas, the die is cast; even if he shouted until his throat broke, it was pointless... Elder Qingyuan had already died at Qin Fang's hands.

"I want you dead..."

Hu Yiren seemed to be struck in a critical spot, going berserk, and the aura around him suddenly turned even more bizarre and unpredictable!

Buzz~~

Energy aura exploded, even Ling Hu the Mercenary King, whose strength was not weaker than his, was shaken off directly. Then, with a flash, Hu Yiren appeared in front of Qin Fang at a speed like lightning.

"Damn..."

The sudden turn of events startled Ling Hu the Mercenary King... If Hu Yiren had burst out like this earlier, he wouldn't have been able to stop him at all.

"No problem, he's just been possessed..."

Although Hu Yiren came quickly, Qin Fang wasn't easy to deal with either. With the Traceless Snow Stepping Technique, his form instantly turned ethereal and illusory, evading Hu Yiren and calmly speaking.

After reaching Great Grandmaster Level, Qin Fang's Traceless Snow Stepping Technique became even more formidable...

Though it couldn't yet match Li Wuhua's Shift Position Technique in short distances and almost unbeatable speed, it was clearly superior to Hu Yiren's Light Body Technique.

Meanwhile...

"Mere possession, what can it do to me?"

Qin Fang shouted coldly, and simultaneously a dense blood aura immediately oscillated from his body, slowly permeating his skin and faintly revealing strange demon patterns.

"Blood Martial Secret Tome..."

Seeing the blood aura rising from Qin Fang, Hu Yiren paused and then exclaimed in horror, "You are... you are a remnant of the Qin Family!"

As a member of the Hu Family, one of the four great clans of the Blood Demon Sect, Hu Yiren's status was quite high, and he was very familiar with the legends of the Blood Martial Secret Tome of the Qin Family... He had even participated in the siege against the Qin Family's experts decades ago.

The fierceness of that battle is still vivid in Hu Yiren's memory today.

However, he never imagined he'd merely try to seize a drop of Azure Heart, randomly targeting a Kunlun disciple, only to encounter an extraordinarily persistent tough opponent. Not only was his companion Elder Qingyuan killed, but he also ran into someone from the Xuewu Qin Family.

"Hmm..."

Qin Fang sneered, "Now you realize? Such a pity... too late!"

Regarding the blood feud between the Blood Demon Sect and the Qin Family, Qin Fang had already learned from his father Qin Tiannan...

Although the Hu Family wasn't Qin Fang's primary enemy, they were accomplices, especially since the death of Qin Fang's grandfather Qin Siyuan was deeply connected to the Hu Family, so he was all the more unwilling to spare Hu Yiren.

"Don't expect to escape from here, you have no chance..."

Qin Fang had already noticed that Hu Yiren, upon realizing his origins from the Xuewu Qin Family, lost his will to fight. Even though possessed, with his cultivation extremely high, he lacked the courage to battle further! (To be continued.
