Refining the Mountains and Rivers

Chapter 1547 – Swallowing the Crow

Well, he was no god, but he was successful in showing his might.

For example, Zhou Dafu, who was the only person Qin Yu admired in terms of acting skills, had a very entertaining reaction.

He was full of wondrous awe, but at the same time, shock, astonishment, disbelief and extreme fear could be seen on his face as well.

Come to think of it, he was probably wondering how he dared to scheme against the terrifying General Jinwu, feeling that he must have been tired of living to do such a thing.

Then, he looked like he was in deep despair.

Simply, since General Jinwu was basically invincible, Zhou Dafu’s plan had become a joke and there would only be death waiting for him at the end.

Qin Yu was not in the mood to care about Zhou Dafu’s mood right now, so he said without turning his head, “If any of you dare to move, I will kill him on the spot.”

The furious members of the Golden Crow Tribe were instantly rooted to the ground. They gritted their teeth in anger, but they did not dare to take another step forward.

Turning around to sit down, Qin Yu glanced at the treehouse, thinking, ‘Whatever your motive is, it’s time to reveal it now.’

Rourou moved her legs and floated down the treehouse, landing next to the big hole in the ground. She looked at Golden Crow who had been knocked down inside, her eyes sparkling.

“Hey. I know you’re not dead yet, you can take a breather.”

Golden Crow opened his eyes and looked at the face in front of him. Still, his eyes were full of heat and intoxication. “I’ve lost. I will give you anything you want.”

Rourou clapped her hands and laughed, “That’s right, men should stay true to their words!” She reached out with her hand and held his, “Then I won’t stand on ceremony anymore, I’ll take it myself.”

“Ah!”

Golden Crow roared in pain. His whole body tensed instantly, and then his limbs seemed like they were caught by an invisible force that pulled on them ferociously.

Crackling sounds rang out, and they came from Golden Crow’s body. It was not clear whether it was the sound of bones that were being broken or flesh that was being torn.

But obviously, this was not a pleasant feeling.

Pain and fear finally overwhelmed the desire in his heart, and he was now furious. “What are you trying to do?!”

Rourou gave him a strange look, “I’m taking what I want.”

She thought in her heart, ‘You promised to give me whatever I wanted, so why are you still asking so many questions? How incredulous.’

Hong –

The flame burst out from his body, and Golden Crow’s clothes were instantly burned to ashes.

Rourou glanced at him, her face showing a bit of contempt. She thought to herself, ‘This man is really like the wax head of a silver gun. He looks good, but isn’t useful. His appearance is rather handsome, but he does not have as much potential as that brat Qin Yu.’

Inexplicably, Qin Yu suddenly felt a lot of unease and he raised his head to look at Rourou. Even though her back was facing him now, his intuition told him that she must have her reasons for doing this.

“Save me! Kill them, kill them all!” Golden Crow howled mournfully.

The red blood vessels on all his limbs started to bulge, as if burning magma really flowed in them.

Slowly, these blood vessels converged towards the heart.

“Kill them!”

“Save our Elder!”

The warriors of the Golden Crow Tribe roared. The temperature between the heavens and earth soared wildly at this moment.

The flames that soared upwards dyed half of the sky as red as blood.

Qin Yu frowned, but he did not get up. He only looked at the opposite side.

The next moment, these warriors whose eyes were full of ferocity and fire suddenly showed fear. They could feel a terrifying oppression weighing down on them. Their hearts started to tremble and the power in their bodies gradually dissipated.

Pu-tong –

Pu-tong –

The warriors slumped to the ground one after another.

This scene made everyone in the camp, who had just regained their composure, fall into a long silence again.

The gazes converged on Qin Yu one after another, and they were mixed with endless shock and disbelief.

Defeating Golden Crow with one hand showed how tyrannical General Jinwu was, but they never expected to witness yet another scene that made their hearts tremble.

As mentioned numerous times previously, sight was one of the most powerless things in the world. However, with just a look, General Jinwu was able to suppress all the warriors from the Golden Crow Tribe.

Did they believe that such a thing had happened?

But there was no doubt that they had seen this happen with their own eyes; they could not help but believe it.

Rourou continued to retrieve what she wanted.

That’s right, although Qin Yu did not know what exactly she was trying to do, he could roughly guess what her motive was.

As the Barbarian King, he had a responsibility to protect his subjects, but this did not include rebels and traitors.

Since Golden Crow started it, there was nothing more to say.

Of course, the more important reason was that Golden Crow had sought death himself. Qin Yu was ready to let him live, but he insisted on provoking Rourou.

Now, Qin Yu could only let Rourou do as she wished, and he could only keep silent.

Again, it was Golden Crow’s own fault!

Golden Crow had fallen into a miserable state. It was to the point where he was now half-conscious. Blood oozed out ceaselessly from all seven orifices, but in the next moment, it evaporated cleanly because of all the flames around him.

As the ‘magma’ flowed from his limbs to his heart, right when Qin Yu was thinking that a tragic scene would happen in the next moment, Rourou suddenly turned, rolled her eyes, and gave Qin Yu a look that said, ‘Why are you looking at me like that? Do I look like a cruel person to you?’

Qin Yu’s mouth twitched, thinking, ‘If it were someone else, that would be hard to say, but if it’s you, doing something like this doesn’t really seem like a big deal’.

In the end, Golden Crow was not cut into pieces alive.

Rourou stretched out her finger and flicked it against his red-hot heart that was like a piece of iron.

Pi-pa –

Pi-pa –

Countless soft cracking sounds came from the surface of Golden Crow’s naked body, and countless cracks appeared on him. Looking down, through every crack, trembling red flesh could be seen that looked soft and delicious like jelly.

The half-conscious Golden Crow suddenly opened his eyes and his body twitched continuously.

Starting from his heart, a thick line of fire extended upwards, through his chest and throat, reaching the tip of his nose and between his eyebrows.

Here, the line of fire divided into two and they passed through each eye on both sides.

Golden Crow started to twitch even more.

This feeling was probably like gouging out one’s eyeballs and then throwing magma into the sockets. It was hard to imagine.

Qin Yu thought that he was rather well-informed, and it was rather accurate to say that he was numb to killings and death as far as this was concerned.

However, it was the first time he was witnessing such a cruel method of killing someone. If Golden Crow had a choice, he would probably take the initiative to slit his own neck first.

Qin Yu was speechless when he thought about Rourou rolling her eyes at him just now and could not help but think, ‘Why don’t you just slit his neck and be done with all this bother.’

Within the camp, the smugglers who had once again regained their composure were attracted by the screams. When they saw the state that Golden Crow was in, they trembled and fell into sluggishness again.

Lady Rourou…was so terrifying as well?

Of them all, Zhou Xiaoshan was the most shocked about Rourou. He clutched his chest and fell to the ground with a ‘plonk’.

Maybe this was the sound of his dreams being shattered!

It turned out that the little fairy could also kill. In fact, her method of killing was so cruel that it was hard for people to accept.

Golden Crow finally stopped twitching, and the ‘magma’ that filled both his eye sockets had hardened into some kind of jade-like solid.

Rourou nodded with satisfaction. She stretched out her hand and the two eyeballs flew out and landed on it.

Just at the moment when the eyeballs were separated from his body, Golden Crow seemed to be drained of all his power and instantly turned into a pool of mud.

“Well, all I wanted was your eyes. Now we’re even.”

Qin Yu frowned suddenly, a hint of vigilance growing in his heart. The next moment, a cry came out from Golden Crow’s body.

One that was full of anger and violence!

A golden crow flew out of Golden Crow’s body. This sentence sounds strange, but because of the scene in front of them, no one found this amusing at all.

This was because the golden crow was very large. Its wingspan was easily hundreds of meters, and it was like a real sun had descended upon the camp, releasing flames of extinction!

At this moment, the air instantly boiled and turned into invisible magma.

Hualala –

Soft rustling sounds could be heard as the branches of the two big trees scrambled to where Rourou was. They interweaved with each other and formed a thick layer of shade, isolating her from all the heat outside.

Their leaves were radiating light at this moment, like they were pieces of green jade. Under the golden crow’s flames, they became greener and greener.

Obviously, these two trees were not just there to serve Rourou, they were unusual in and of themselves.

Hualala –

Another layer of shade formed on top of Qin Yu’s head. Even though the thickness of this shade could not be compared to Rourou’s, his surroundings instantly became cooler.

What extraordinary trees!

The golden crow screamed angrily, its wings flapping and hovering in the sky. Its eyes were fixated on Rourou as if it was feeling some kind of threat coming from her.

There was a hint of hesitation in its huge eyes, and the golden crow slapped its wings violently, causing an endless sea of fire to pour out.

In the next moment, its huge body soared into the sky!

It turned out that this earth-shattering blow was not intended to kill the enemy. Instead, it was so that it could take the opportunity to escape.

Qin Yu looked at the huge golden crow with a hint of sympathy in his eyes.

Even though you have good senses and are decisive, since you have already come, how can Rourou let you escape alive?

At this time, Qin Yu confirmed that from the beginning, Rourou had been after this golden crow.

She had gone through a complicated and cruel method to extract Golden Crow’s eyes, and it was probably to lure this golden crow out.

Even though the golden crow that was rushing into the sky and trying to escape was not in its original body…Rourou still had a way to stop it from escaping.

In fact, Rourou’s method was very simple. She threw out a bead, or more precisely, it was one of Golden Crow’s eyeballs.

She raised her hand and pointed a finger at the surface of the bead. With a ‘ka-cha’ sound, cracks appeared on the bead before it shattered completely.

In the sky, the golden crow that had flown far away suddenly let out a miserable scream. The next moment, its enormous body exploded into fine powder like fireworks.

The powder fell to the ground like a huge firestorm.

Rourou nodded in satisfaction, took out another bead, and pointed at it again.

This time, the bead did not shatter. Instead, it became something like a black hole.

A powerful swallowing power erupted from it and spread in all directions, completely devouring the firestorm that was descending from the sky.

A scream of anger rang out from the bead, and a golden crow phantom that had shrunk by countless times flew around wildly in the bead.

But the bead was like a world of its own, and it was also like an unbreakable cage. No matter how frantically the golden crow flapped its wings, it could not escape from it.

Rourou lifted the bead, looked at it, and swallowed it in one gulp.
