Chapter 657: 214 Death of Jiang Baiyu, Return of Fairy Fengling_1
The price he paid in this fight was enormous. He used tons of fourth-grade inferior talismans as if they were free, consuming more than half. The storage is alarmingly low, so he’ll have to replenish it once things settle down.
However, with the capture of Qin Kexin and others, the gains were also significant.
Periodically inferior magic weapons alone, he gained as many as nine, with six more in their embryonic form.
He amassed innumerable resources, especially those related to formations.
It’s enough for his use in the fourth-grade Array Master stage.
This gain, when converted into Spirit Stones, should be worth more than ten million mid-grade Spirit Stones!
“Having made my move and killed so many from Zhiyue Pavilion and Zhaixing Tower before, the grudge is formally established now. Plus, these two know my true strength, so they cannot be spared.”
“However…”
“Now that these people have fallen, Zhiyue Pavilion and Zhaixing Tower will likely send someone to investigate.”
And how can I exclude myself from this matter? Or hide my true strength?
With an extremely calm demeanor, Su Yu pondered. The immediate concern was not to spare these two before him, and next, he must force everyone from Dayue Palace to enter the Luoyue League secret realm. They can’t be let out in the short run.
This way, no one would know that he was the one pulling the strings behind the deaths of people from Zhiyue Pavilion and Zhaixing Tower. It also wouldn’t let them know of his true strength.
Lastly, he needed to find a scapegoat for the incident and address the issue of Zhiyue Pavilion and Zhaixing Tower potentially sending someone to investigate.
Only by resolving all these matters could he rest easy.
“It’s not enough just to ensure my safety. I must find a way to cause trouble for Zhiyue Pavilion and Zhaixing Tower.” Su Yu thought about the Marker Talisman he left behind previously. But how should he use this Marker Talisman? He needed to think it through.
Previously, he intended to bring back Qin Kexin and Li Zhong, who were in the late Nascent Soul stage, to the Immortal Palace. Then, he would hand over the Marker Talisman, letting the Immortal Palace cause trouble for Zhiyue Pavilion and Zhaixing Tower.
But, reflecting on it now, doing so seemed inappropriate.
Doing so would completely expose his background.
All of his years of effort would be in vain.
He might even draw the attention of many in the Immortal Palace.
That would be unacceptable.
“Therefore, I can’t inform the Immortal Palace about this. As for the people from Zhiyue Pavilion and Zhaixing Tower…what people? I haven’t seen anyone.” Su Yu raised the Green Moon Sword, about to kill Qin Kexin and Li Zhong. As his murderous intent became evident, Fourth Elder Li Zhong from Zhaixing Tower immediately knelt before him.
Trembling with fear, Li Zhong pleaded, “Elder Su, please don’t kill me. I’m willing to serve you. I swear, I’m willing to swear a Dao oath!”
Su Yu squinted his eyes, smirking at Qin Kexin.
Although the Elder from Zhiyue Pavilion shouldn’t be young, at least more than five or six hundred years old. Nascent Soul Realm peak cultivators could live up to a thousand years. Plus, with rejuvenation techniques, their appearance would not change much.
Therefore, Qin Kexin looks like a woman in her twenties.
However, presently, Qin Kexin was in a horrible state, covered in blood with numerous gashes from a sword. She was severely injured by the Black Riled-up Warrior’s sword domain.
Su Yu didn’t say a word, gradually approaching Qin Kexin with the Green Moon Sword in his hand.
Always defiant, this woman must have a hard kneecap to match.
As Su Yu approached Qin Kexin at that moment when the killing intent reached its peak, her delicate body trembled. She couldn’t help but bow her head, stammering, “I…I am willing to surrender!”
Seeing her, Su Yu sneered, “Surrender? Are you implying that if I ask you to kill the people from Zhiyue Pavilion, you would be willing?”
Qin Kexin’s eyes widened in anger at Su Yu.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
Caught in Su Yu’s bone-chilling murderous intent, and recalling Su Yu’s daunting strength and capability she witnessed earlier, Qin Kexin could not hold back. She wanted to live.
Once, Zhiyue Pavilion had to bow to the pressure to survive in the face of the Wanxian Palace.
They only bowed to the Wanxian Palace instead of an individual, though.
Now, facing another life-and-death crisis, Qin Kexin’s instinct to live trumped her loyalty to Zhiyue Pavilion.
With tear-filled eyes, Qin Kexin once again lowered her head, whispering, “I will follow Dao fellow’s…”
Su Yu abruptly interrupted, “Call me master! If you are opting to surrender, to serve me, from today onwards, call me master!”
Qin Kexin glared at Su Yu. Under his coercion, she yielded once more, gritting her teeth and reluctantly said, “I am obedient to my master’s command! Only the master’s orders do I follow!”
“Hahaha.”
Su Yu laughed heartily, leaving the cave while still restraining Qin Kexin and Li Zhong.
He found this rather amusing, deciding to spare their lives.
He could come and tame them whenever he had some free time.
Until they become utterly submissive, or until he could control their lives and deaths, he would then use them as his tools.
He wasn’t interested or used to being called master, but he needed to break the self-esteem of this Elder of Zhiyue Pavilion, Qin Kexin. This way, there was a possibility to genuinely tame this 8th-level Nascent Soul realm elder and fourth-grade superior Array Master to serve him.
Over time, her compromise once will lead to many more until there’s only obedience left.
Of course, there’s a prerequisite. He must have the strength to control her life and death!
Otherwise, the one who would die could be him.
And having control over Qin Kexin and Li Zhong might help him deal with Zhiyue Pavilion and Zhaixing Tower in the future.
That is the main reason for sparing their lives.
Leaving the cave.
Su Yu started arranging for Dayue Palace to move into the Luoyue League secret realm completely. Those who witnessed the previous fight must also enter the Luoyue League secret realm and are not allowed to leave.
