Refining the Mountains and Rivers

Chapter 1150: I Don’t Believe

Elder Ao Fa felt as if he was watching an interesting and splendid drama, even if the dialogue of this drama was dry and short.

But whether it was exciting or not depended on the contents. A solemn Abyssal True King was forced to lower his head by a mere Demon Commander realm junior and required to work for a hundred years.

Alright. Even if this boy Qin Yu was freakishly abnormal and couldn’t be judged by common sense, he was still a Demon Commander.

Throughout the countless years he had roamed the abyss, let alone seeing this sort of thing, he had never even heard about it. It was simply unbelievable.

This was certainly a great and wonderful show!

Once news of this spread, King Mystery would lose any face he had left. The entire Nether Royal Bloodline would be dragged through the mud with him.

As time passed, there was eventually nothing to be gained. But Elder Ao Fa’s mentality and excitement of watching from the sides didn’t last long. He felt Qin Yu’s eyes fall on him and his heart chilled. He immediately raised his vigilance.

Just what was this boy planning on doing?

He never thought that a dignified Abyssal True King would reveal such an attitude just because of a look from a junior…it was too disgraceful!

Qin Yu said, “Elder Ao Fa, can you keep today’s matter a secret?”

Ao Fa was startled. He immediately thought of a possibility. He said, “Of course. I guarantee that I will not tell anyone.”

Qin Yu waved his hand, “I don’t believe that.”

Ao Fa: …

You bastard, if you don’t believe me then what are you asking for? Are you deliberately playing with me?

Qin Yu turned his head, “King Mystery, do you believe him? After all, I need time.”

King Mystery remained silent.

This silence now represented his stance, because he understood what Qin Yu was saying.

The Shadow of Betrayal had been destroyed, but a fragment remained in his body. In normal circumstances there was only a very low chance that it would be detected by the abyss’ will…but what if someone reported him?

The Abyssal Demon Dragon Clan had the approval of the abyss’ will. It wouldn’t be difficult to spin up a story or something. Perhaps they could even obtain a reward from the abyss’ will.

This was an extremely simple matter. Even when King Mystery thought about it, if he swapped positions with them, even he would be moved.

Of course, there was another hidden reason that wasn’t easy to talk about. That was…why was he the only one who was unlucky?

You are an Abyssal True King, and I am too.

Since I fell into the pit, dragging someone down with me would definitely be better…at the very least, I can make this old demon dragon Ao Fa shut up so that he never speaks about this shameful matter.

Qin Yu looked away. He said, “Elder Ao Fa, see for yourself. It seems that even King Mystery doesn’t believe you.”

Elder Ao Fa’s face paled and his eyes darkened. He roared, “Qin Yu, don’t forget that I complied with our contract today and came here to help you! And you are repaying graciousness with enmity!”

Qin Yu said, “You gave me a contract because someone give you enough benefits. This was a transaction, so I don’t owe you anything.” As he spoke, he suddenly pointed a finger upwards. An invisible aura was instantly released, pouring into the ancestral land.

Although the ancestral land was still broken and not completely repaired, at this moment it regained a bit of its imprisoning ability.

If one didn’t reach the peak, not even an Abyssal True King could instantly destroy it. In other words, this old demon dragon Ao Fa could forget about slipping away. This short delay was enough for King Mystery to block him.

Ao Fa roared in rage, his face stiff. He glared at Qin Yu, an ominous light glowing in his eyes. This hateful young bastard!

He had been secretly gathering his strength so that he could break out of the ancestral land and immediately escape. But before he could make his move, Qin Yu cut off his escape route.

This was smart and straightforward. Consider yourself ruthless enough!

Not in the mood to continue acting, Elder Ao Fa coldly said, “Tell me, what do you want?” He looked at the silent King Mystery and said, “But let me warn you in advance, don’t try and propose any impossible requests. If push comes to shove I will fight. You won’t necessarily be able to keep me here.”

Qin Yu said, “Of course I believe that senior possesses such great strength. But I also believe that you understand that if I were to join together with King Mystery, there is a chance that we can kill you.”

Elder Ao Fa was silent. This was because he knew that Qin Yu wasn’t speaking incorrectly.

Qin Yu smiled. “So my request is…I hope that you can give me a contract…the same contract as before.”

Ao Fa’s complexion instantly turned ugly. When he looked at Qin Yu’s smiling face he gnashed his teeth and almost grinded them to nubs. He wanted to tear Qin Yu to pieces and swallow him up.

This little bastard, he had given him a contract before and ended up in such a situation. If he gave him another one, what would happen then? He might get played to death!

“No…”

Just as he spoke he was interrupted. Qin Yu earnestly said, “Elder Ao Fa, I am speaking the truth. Please reconsider and don’t make things awkward for me…if I could choose, I really don’t want to become enemies with a formidable existence like you.”

Was this speaking highly of him?

What a joke!

Ao Fa wished he could slam down his palm and crush Qin Yu to pieces. This brat was clearly threatening him.

Finally, Ao Fa chose to agree.

Because of the signing of the contract, it was tacitly agreed that he would not harm Qin Yu, even if that meant not leaking out any information. Otherwise, he would suffer a backlash from the contract.

King Mystery’s interests were the same as Qin Yu’s. This guaranteed that he wouldn’t reveal anything…this young bastard, he had planned things out meticulously enough!

Qin Yu received the contract and bowed, “Goodbye, Senior Ao Fa!”

“Humph!” With a flick of his sleeves, Ao Fa shattered space. When he was about to step in, Qin Yu’s voice sounded out once again, “Feature gave me something before she left, saying that it might be useful to you. Please consider this as my apology.”

Pa –

Ao Fa reached out a hand and grabbed a demon crystal. After determining there was no threat, he probed it with his divine sense. He was immediately taken aback.

He took a deep breath and looked at Qin Yu. Then without further delay, he stepped into the spatial crack.

Shua –

Ao Fa’s aura vanished.

King Mystery wanted to know what was in the demon crystal that Qin Yu gave Ao Fa for the old demon dragon to reveal such a shocked expression.

He looked at Qin Yu. He originally thought this boy would give a little explanation, but he didn’t end up doing so.

“Senior King Mystery, before we leave, there are still some preparations to be done…after all, I still need senior to help me act out a play.”

…

The entirety of Adversity Peak City fell into a deathly silence. Countless eyes widened. They bulged like fish deprived of oxygen, all of them with sluggish faces.

Because the vortex in the heavens suddenly broke apart.

That’s right, without warning, it popped like a bubble and vanished from existence.

Such a matter had never happened in the records of the Nightmare Clan. No one knew what was going on.

But without a doubt…

A massive accident must have happened. They urgently wanted to know what kind of impact this accident would have, and what changes it would bring to the Nightmare Clan.

However, all they could do right now was wait.

At this moment, in the skies above Adversity Peak City, space was destroyed. A figure appeared and stepped out.

It was the Demon Dragon Clan Elder Ao Fa!

How could it be him?

The Ancient King Patriarch, New King Patriarch, and Red Fringe all changed their complexions. They subconsciously took a step forward.

Before they could speak, Ao Fa coldly said, “The new Nightmare King has been born. He is right behind!”

As he spoke he stepped forward and tore apart space once more, vanishing from sight.

The new King was born? Who was it? Just what happened inside the ancestral land?

The curiosity was like a hundred fingernails scratching at their brains. If that old demon dragon Ao Fa wasn’t so strong and had such a formidable background, they would have pushed him down and pressed him for answers.

But now, their only choice was to continue waiting.

But this impatient and anxious waiting didn’t last long. The skies shattered and another figure emerged.

It was blurry at first but soon condensed into reality. Cloud Boundless widened his eyes, joy etched on his face as he laughed out loud.

Qin Yu, it was Qin Yu!

His laughter echoed throughout the entirety of Adversity Peak City.

In Bluetile Courtyard, Cloud Mist heard Cloud Boundless’ laughter and immediately relaxed. A smile spread across her pale face.

He won!

Qin Yu stepped out from the shattered space. That’s right, he was the only one. He looked down at the Ancient King Patriarch, Old King Patriarch, and Red Fringe. After pausing on them for a moment, he smiled.

“Patriarchs, is there any objection to me winning the throne?”

A pressure released from his body. The three Nameless True Kings who were mentioned by name immediately changed their complexions.

The pressure of an Abyssal True King wasn’t wrong, and this aura was indeed the pure aura of the Nightmare King. But for some reason, when they looked at Qin Yu they felt something was strange.

The Old King Patriarch’s eyes flashed. He was the first to step forward. “The head of the Nightmare Clan’s Cloud Family greets my King!”

No matter what happened, Qin Yu represented the Old King’s Lineage in finally capturing the throne. This was the best result for them.

Red Fringe was the second to bow, her eyes bright and brilliant as she looked at Qin Yu. “Red Fringe greets my King!”

The Ancient King Patriarch gently sighed, but he knew that the situation didn’t accommodate him. He followed the other two and respectfully bowed.

“I greet my King!”

Then, all of the demons in Adversity Peak City kneeled down.

Bang –

From the vast and endless heavens, an aura suddenly descended. It was mighty and majestic as it poured into Qin Yu’s body. His black robes calmly fluttered in the wind as a formidable aura erupted. The pressure and aura of an Abyssal True King swept out in all directions.

This came from the approval of the abyss’ will. It integrated into the aura within Qin Yu’s body. This was the source strength of the abyss and represented the confirmation of his status as the Nightmare King.

No accidents occurred!

Qin Yu’s heart felt slightly relieved. He looked down at the bowing leaders of the Old King’s Lineage, Ancient King’s Lineage, and New Faction. He lightly said, “I know that you three are urgently curious and puzzled about what happened. Follow me to Bluetile Courtyard. I shall explain what happened and will not conceal anything.”

Not concealing anything was certainly a lie.

But since Qin Yu hoped to grasp the status of the Nightmare King, he had to find a way to resolve the suspicions of these three old demons.

Otherwise, this fake and shoddy Nightmare King wouldn’t be able to suppress three Nameless True Kings. With one accident the entire carriage would flip over.
