God-Slaying Blade

"Okay, turn around now!"

After a moment, Qin Jue chuckled softly.

Chen Guo'er's face twitched slightly as she asked, "Can I just leave?"

"No, we need to talk," Qin Jue said.

Now that the owner of Crescent Moon Mountain knows about the ginseng that grows on the ground, he naturally has to find it. Otherwise, it will be stolen sooner or later.

Chen Guo'er looked helpless and had no choice but to carefully turn around.

When she saw Qin Jue again, her eyes widened in surprise. She hadn't expected that this villain, dressed in clothes, would actually look somewhat respectable...

"What else do you want to talk about?" Chen Guo'er asked, gripping the sword in her hand tightly.

Although she knew she was no match for the young man in front of her, she was prepared to fight him to the death if he dared to make any unreasonable demands.

Qin Jue smiled faintly: "Didn't Feng Wuji tell you that this Crescent Moon Mountain has an owner?"

Chen Guo'er was taken aback and said, "I don't know, Feng Wuji didn't say! Besides, he originally planned to have the people from Fengxia Manor come with me, but I wanted to explore on my own, so they didn't come."

Qin Jue said calmly, "I have some disagreements with Feng Wuji. He probably wants you to trespass on my private property and die by my hand, so he can send the news to the Weaving Heaven Sword Sect, and your sect will definitely come looking for trouble with me because of it. Tsk tsk, this guy is really a bad thing."

Chen Guo'er's eyes widened in shock, her face turned pale with anger, and she gritted her teeth, saying, "Does Feng Wuji really think that way?"

Qin Jue sneered, "That's obvious. In Fengzhou, who doesn't know I'm a ruthless killer, merciless under my blade? You trespassed on my private territory, violating my taboo. Under normal circumstances, even if you don't die, you'll be badly injured. So, if we bump into each other, there will inevitably be unpleasantness between us. Whether you live or die, I'll have a grudge against the Weaving Heaven Sword Sect. But you're lucky; we met under a misunderstanding, so I didn't really intend to kill you. If we had met while fighting over the spirit ginseng, I certainly wouldn't have shown any mercy."

Chen Guo'er's lips twitched.

She was bathing in the lake and someone saw her. Is that considered lucky?

"That bastard Feng Wuji! No wonder I didn't think he was a good person the first time I saw him! I never thought he would dare to scheme against me like this!" Chen Guo'er said angrily.

Although Qin Jue's words made her a little unhappy, at this moment, the person she hated the most was Feng Wuji.

If Feng Wuji hadn't concealed from her that this was an owner's mountain, even if she knew there were walking spirit ginseng here, she, a proud disciple of the Weaving Heaven Sword Sect, would never have dared to sneak into someone else's mountain to steal things.

Right now, she not only almost ruined her innocence and reputation, but also has to bear the stigma of stealing other people's spiritual materials...

Qin Jue nodded and said, "You're quite good at judging people. Feng Wuji's reputation in Fengzhou is already terrible. You can find out just by asking around."

If Feng Wuji were here, he would feel so wronged that he would want to cry!

He admitted he wasn't a good person, but this time, he really didn't intend to scheme against anyone! He just wanted to please Chen Guo'er, so he told her about the living ginseng in Crescent Moon Mountain!

Qin Jue had only bought Crescent Moon Mountain half a month ago; news of this kind, lacking any special value, would never even reach Feng Wuji's ears...

Of course, Qin Jue didn't care whether Feng Wuji was intentionally scheming or not. As long as he could make Chen Guo'er and Feng Wuji unhappy, he would be happy.

Chen Guo'er's eyes flickered slightly as she said, "Since you've guessed that Feng Wuji was plotting against us, then we shouldn't have any more grudges between us. Don't you agree?"

Qin Jue laughed and said, "Of course. If I had a grudge against you, you would be lying stiffly on the ground right now. I never bother to waste words with people I really want to kill."

Chen Guo'er felt a surge of frustration. Did this guy really think she, a Grandmaster, had no strength at all?

"When do you plan to let me go?" Chen Guo'er asked.

Qin Jue laughed and said, "Although I am the master of Crescent Moon Mountain, I myself did not know that Crescent Moon Mountain had the Earth-borne Spirit Ginseng. Since you know, then tell me the specific form and approximate location of this Earth-borne Spirit Ginseng."

Chen Guo'er was stunned: "You didn't even know that yourself?"

Qin Jue shook his head and said, "If I had known, I would have picked them long ago."

Chen Guo'er's face darkened as she said, "That Feng Wuji! He even lied to me about the Earth Spirit Ginseng! When I get back to Fengxia Manor, I'll definitely settle the score with him!"

Qin Jue smiled faintly: "Feng Wuji is very cunning. If you go to him directly to settle accounts, he will know that he has offended you. Do you think he will let you go back to the Weaving Heaven Sword Sect alive? Although you have the cultivation of a Grandmaster, Fengzhou is not the territory of your Weaving Heaven Sword Sect. With the power of the Feng family, they are more than capable of intercepting you on your way back."

Chen Guo'er's eyes widened in surprise: "He dares to ambush me?"

"Heh. If he doesn't kill you, he might be in big trouble. Why wouldn't he dare to kill you? Since you're acquainted with Feng Yuanxi, don't you know that the Feng family also has a remarkable background? Even if the news of killing you gets out, it will only cause some trouble for Fengxia Manor. Do you think the Zhitian Sword Sect would really kill Feng Wuji for you?" Qin Jue said with a playful tone.

Chen Guo'er took a deep breath.

Although she was a prodigy of her sect, the Feng family was indeed deeply involved.

She wasn't sure if the sect would completely break ties with the Feng family for the sake of someone who was already dead.

"If you really want revenge, find an opportunity to teach him a lesson secretly. If you make a scene, you'll be the one who suffers," Qin Jue suggested.

Chen Guo'er stared blankly at Qin Jue. She hadn't expected that someone she had just met could be so considerate of her!

When she looked at Qin Jue again, he was no longer a hypocrite; he was truly a great person.

"Let's go, take me to find the Earth Spirit Ginseng. If we really find it, I'll treat you to grilled fish," Qin Jue said with a smile.

Chen Guo'er said helplessly, "What if we can't find it?"

"If we can't find it, so be it. What else can we do? I can't just plant you in the ground as a spiritual ginseng," Qin Jue teased.

Chen Guo'er said angrily, "You're not a good person either."

"That's natural. In many people's eyes, I'm almost like a devil," Qin Jue said with a faint smile.

Chen Guo'er asked in surprise, "Why is that?"

"Because I've truly killed countless people. In less than a month since I returned to Fengzhou City, seven Grandmasters have already died at my hands," Qin Jue said with a slight smile.

Chen Guo'er's pupils contracted, and she exclaimed in horror, "You...you actually killed so many Grandmasters! Why did you kill them?"

Qin Jue smiled faintly, "Go ask Feng Yuanxi when you get back! The Feng family knows a lot about me. I'm quite curious about you, though. Didn't you come looking for the Earth Spirit Ginseng? Why are you taking a bath in my bathhouse?"

Chen Guo'er's lips twitched again, and two red clouds rose on her face.

Since this mountain belongs to this person, it's normal that this person must often bathe in the lake and treats this clear lake as their private bathhouse.

Unaware of her surroundings, she not only wandered into someone's bathhouse but also mistakenly believed that the person was trying to take advantage of her...

Chen Guo'er couldn't help but feel a little ashamed.

"Then you can't laugh at me when I tell you!" Chen Guo'er said, her face flushed slightly.

Qin Jue laughed and said, "Okay, I promise I won't laugh."
