God-Slaying Blade

Leng Yuqiu and Yu Cheng felt a chill run down their spines!

Even if they expel Leng Xuanting from the sect, the Lingshan Sect will still have to bear the responsibility.

They rarely try to reason, and they've actually run into someone who's completely unreasonable!

"Young friend Qin, what you're saying doesn't make much sense," Leng Yuqiu said with a wry smile.

Qin Jue said indifferently, "It's because you're not sincere! If Leng Xuanting were in the Lingshan Sect, I could kill him at any time if he caused trouble! Now that you've expelled them, you've only made him more unrestrained and he won't have any worries anymore! This has undoubtedly made things worse for me."

"If you can't cripple Leng Xuanting, there's no need for you to put on airs in front of me. Though I'm young, I'm not someone to be trifled with! You can leave now, but next time, whether you can leave me alive depends on your performance."

Even though Leng Yuqiu and Yu Cheng had prepared to be humble and subservient when they arrived, their anger still surged as they faced the arrogant Qin Jue.

Both men clenched their fists, and the veins on their necks bulged like black earthworms.

"Alright! We will do our best to find Leng Xuanting and give you a satisfactory explanation!" Leng Yuqiu finally suppressed her anger and said through gritted teeth.

Yu Cheng's eyes flickered slightly, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "Young friend Qin, we acknowledge Leng Fenghua's mistake, and we have prepared a small gift as an apology. We just wonder if we can take back the exotic beasts our sect keeps?"

As Yu Cheng spoke, he waved his right hand, and several boxes fell to the ground.

He then opened the boxes one by one in front of Qin Jue.

The sight was dazzling, with each box radiating a precious and splendid glow.

On their way here, Yu Cheng and Leng Yuqiu both saw the ten giant beasts waiting in the corner of the front yard.

Aside from White Wolf, Yu Cheng was very familiar with the other nine heads.

Qin Jue glanced at the contents of the boxes; they were indeed quite valuable, worth at least a million spirit stones.

He asked calmly, "So, are these a small token of your apology, or ransom prepared for those strange beasts?"

Yu Cheng choked, then coughed lightly and said, "Naturally, it's a small gift to apologize."

Qin Jue nodded and said, "In that case, I'll accept the things. But those strange beasts are my spoils of war, and you can't take them with you. Just consider them as dead, like those elders."

Yu Cheng's face twitched, but he could only sulk inwardly.

Leng Yuqiu took a deep breath, clasped her hands in a fist and said, "Then we'll take our leave. Yu Cheng, let's go."

As soon as Leng Yuqiu finished speaking, she turned and walked out.

He didn't want to stay here a moment longer.

If he didn't leave soon, he feared his frail body would be scorched by the rage burning within him...

Yu Cheng clasped his hands in a gesture of respect and left with a dark expression.

Only after leaving Fengzhou City did Yu Cheng finally burst into curses: "Elder, that Qin Jue is utterly despicable! We two personally went to apologize, but he still treated us the same way. He clearly doesn't respect us at all!"

Leng Yuqiu narrowed her cold eyes and said, "That's because he has enough confidence to easily crush us. This Qin Jue is arrogant, but he's also truly strong! Although he hasn't revealed the slightest bit of his aura, I can feel an invisible sense of pressure just by him standing in front of me! This kid is probably about to break through to the Spirit Realm!"

Yu Cheng's pupils contracted, and he exclaimed in surprise, "He's already this strong now, if he were to enter the Spirit Realm, wouldn't his strength be even more terrifying?"

Leng Yuqiu said in a low voice, "Therefore, when we get back, we must make a proper appearance and arrange as many people as possible to find Leng Xuanting's whereabouts!"

"Just for show?" Yu Cheng asked in surprise.

Leng Yuqiu snorted, "We can't afford to offend Qin Jue, but do you think Leng Xuanting, who has just experienced the pain of losing his son, is so easy to deal with? People go crazy when they're in dire straits."

Yu Cheng let out a low sigh: "The Supreme Elder is absolutely right. If we really take advantage of Leng Xuanting's misfortune now, I'm afraid he will be the first to retaliate against our sect."

"That's right, so just make a show of it. What we need to do now is play it safe and avoid offending anyone!" Leng Yuqiu narrowed her yellowish eyes, thinking to herself, "Hopefully, the Lingshan Sect's search will make Leng Xuanting more anxious. That way, he'll definitely stop hesitating! If he succeeds, I can try it myself! As long as I can step into the Spirit Realm, why would I care about the status of the Lingshan Sect's Supreme Elder!"

……

Inside the Qin residence.

Qin Jue accepted the apology gift from the Lingshan Sect, a smile playing on his lips.

"Now, we have more resources to break through to the Spirit Realm."

"Whether Leng Yuqiu is truly sensible or just feigning weakness, at least for the time being, the Ling Shan Sect shouldn't bother me anymore. This gives me ample time to break through to the next realm!"

After considering his options, Qin Jue called Hong Tiehu and Han tide to his side.

"I have to go out for a few days tomorrow morning. If anyone comes, refuse them on the grounds that I am in seclusion. If anyone causes trouble, deal with them carefully. If you can't handle it, try to delay it until I return and then deal with it," Qin Jue instructed.

"Yes!" the two replied respectfully, without asking any further questions.

The next morning, Qin Jue put Da Bai into his spirit beast bag and left the Qin residence alone.

When one is in seclusion to break through to a higher realm, it is most important not to be disturbed. Nowadays, the Qin family is being watched secretly by many forces, so staying in the Qin family to break through is not safe enough.

Although Hong Tiehu and Han tide were both trustworthy people, Qin Jue still did not tell them his true purpose for leaving.

Crescent Moon Mountain.

A tall, slender figure climbed the mountain.

The figure gradually became clearer; it was Qin Jue.

Crescent Moon Mountain was also the place he chose to break through.

This place is more than 60 miles from the city and is quite remote. Moreover, the city lord's mansion has already announced that Crescent Moon Mountain is now the private property of the Qin family. Given Qin Jue's current reputation, ordinary people would never dare to set foot on the Qin family's private property.

When Qin Jue arrived at the mountainside, he first burned paper money for his parents and elders, knelt down and kowtowed, and then built a simple shed five miles away from the cemetery.

During the five years he spent away from home, he had already mastered the skill of building sheds.

Qin Jue released Da Bai, stroked its head and chuckled, "Da Bai, I'll have to trouble you to protect me during my breakthrough."

"Waaah—"

Big White let out a soft whimper, affectionately raised its head, and rubbed against Qin Jue's palm.

Qin Jue, with his Grandmaster cultivation, subdued the spirit beast Da Bai not through force, but through luck, or perhaps through a moment of compassion.

Two years ago, on a snowy day, Qin Jue happened to encounter a giant black python that had coiled around a white wolf.

At that time, the white wolf was already on the verge of death from being strangled by the black python, with blood dripping from the corner of its mouth. It was no longer able to tear at the snake's body. However, when it saw Qin Jue hiding in the shadows, ready to reap the benefits, its eyes sent out a signal for help.

At that moment, Qin Jue actually understood its eyes.

After a slight hesitation, Qin Jue seized the moment when the black python was not paying attention and severed its head with a single stroke, saving the dying white wolf.

White Wolf was also grateful, and after being rescued, he stayed by Qin Jue's side.

Two months later, under Qin Jue's meticulous care, White Wolf not only recovered from his injuries but also broke through to the Spirit Realm!

After breaking through, the White Wolf voluntarily handed over the Demon Soul Seal, wanting to sign a soul contract with Qin Jue!

Qin Jue, of course, didn't stand on ceremony. From then on, the man and the wolf became lifelong partners!
