God-Slaying Blade

Chen Guo'er's almond-shaped eyes snapped open: "What...what did you give me to eat?"

Qin Jue shook the blue pill bottle in his hand and smiled, "There was only one spirit-grade antidote pill, which I've already fed to you. If I get poisoned later, you'll have to help me detoxify."

Chen Guo'er exclaimed in surprise, "So, you're not going to kill me?"

Qin Jue retorted irritably, "Do you also think I'm a serial killer? You haven't offended me. Just because you might expose that I killed Feng Yaoran, do you think I'd kill you? If I did that, how would I be any different from the Feng family?"

Chen Guo'er's bright eyes flashed, and she said, "I knew it, you're a good person! I... I'll refine the medicinal power first!"

"Hurry up, you look so red. Even a man who isn't poisoned would be driven mad by your appearance." Qin Jue chuckled, then turned and walked towards the middle room.

Chen Guo'er glanced at Qin Jue's retreating figure and chuckled to herself, "Why didn't this guy unleash his beastly nature? If it were him, perhaps... I wouldn't be so opposed to it."

Qin Jue had not forgotten the time he saved Duanmu Li.

That day and night of torment was unbearable for anyone.

This kind of thing is enjoyable once or twice.

For a man, being subjected to this repeatedly is nothing short of torture...

"I wonder how she is now, whether she has escaped the pursuit of the Dongfang family." Qin Jue couldn't help but mutter to himself as he thought of Duanmu Li.

He had no feelings for Duanmu Li, and they weren't even that familiar with each other.

That's why I left back then.

Setting the timeframe for six months was also intended to allow Duanmu Li time to calm down before making a decision.

Now that he has found a high-grade antidote pill in Feng Yaoran's storage ring, he naturally will not take advantage of someone in distress.

Inside the room, Qin Jue's gaze swept across the room.

The room was very simple, with almost nothing inside.

Even if they did exist, they were probably taken by the Feng family who came a century ago.

Qin Jue turned around and looked into the other two rooms, but found nothing there either.

"This should be the residence of the master of the secret realm, but unfortunately, nothing was left behind." Qin Jue was somewhat disappointed.

"I'm leaving now. Once you're cured of the poison, you can leave on your own," Qin Jue said to Chen Guo'er, seeing that he hadn't gained anything.

Chen Guo'er was taken aback: "You just left like that?"

Qin Jue raised an eyebrow: "Didn't you take the antidote? You don't need me anymore."

Chen Guo'er's pretty face flushed red, and she said angrily, "Who wants to use you to cure the poison? What I mean is, can't we go together?"

Qin Jue shook his head and said, "Going with you would be tantamount to telling the Feng family that Feng Yaoran died at my hands. I don't want to confront the Feng family directly unless absolutely necessary. So, you figure out how to deal with the Feng family yourself, just don't betray me."

Chen Guo'er said irritably, "Don't worry, you saved me, how could I possibly betray you? But if you leave on your own, what if... what if the poison really takes effect outside? This poison is extremely insidious; it's almost undetectable before it takes effect."

Qin Jue couldn't help but smile: "What, if I were really poisoned, would you cure me?"

Chen Guo'er's face flushed as she said, "You saved me, I... I'll consider this repaying your kindness."

Qin Jue smiled and said, "It's enough that you have the intention. I should be fine."

Upon discovering the Fierce Desire Flower, Qin Jue immediately held his breath and used the power of the Earth Core Golden Flame to burn away the exotic fragrance he had inhaled.

Afterwards, he secretly used his spiritual power to form a thin barrier on his body.

"Xiao Jue, go back to the main room."

Suddenly, Qin Jue heard Liu Qingxue's voice.

Qin Jue raised an eyebrow, turned around without making a sound, and walked into the house.

Chen Guo'er was taken aback, not understanding why Qin Jue had come into the house again.

However, the poison in her body had not been completely neutralized, so she had to suppress her curiosity and continue the detoxification process.

"Slightly cut along the left side of this futon on the ground," Liu Qingxue transmitted her voice.

puff-

With a slight slash of the God-Slaying Blade, a thin crack appeared on the gray futon on the ground.

"Storage ring!"

Qin Jue's eyes lit up.

Hidden inside the prayer mat was a storage ring!

"Heh. There really is something there. I felt like the gaps around this cushion had been tampered with, and I didn't expect there to be something hidden inside," Liu Qingxue said with a smile.

Qin Jue took out his storage ring and said in a low voice, "Sister Qingxue is so thoughtful; I didn't notice it at all."

"That's because your attention was all on that woman's sweaty neck," Liu Qingxue teased.

"Really not!" Qin Jue said dejectedly.

"Hehe, if there's nothing there, then forget it. Why are you still getting angry inside? If there really was something, the Feng family would have taken it a hundred years ago." Chen Guo'er's voice came from outside.

Qin Jue's face twitched: "Go and properly cure your poison."

Chen Guo'er smiled and said, "How about I give you all the spoils I gained from this trip to the secret realm, as a way of repaying you?"

Qin Jue raised an eyebrow, turned around and walked out of the house. He came up to Chen Guo'er and extended his hand, saying, "Then I won't be polite."

Chen Guo'er's eyes widened in surprise: "You...you really want to?"

Qin Jue laughed and said, "Why shouldn't I take it? If you wait until next time to repay me, who knows when that will be? It's more practical to take some rare and precious materials now."

"Fine, take it all! Let me tell you, you're short-sighted. My favors are far more valuable than these things." Chen Guo'er waved her hand angrily, moving out dozens of spiritual herbs and several rare and precious plants.

Qin Jue waved his hand, collecting all the spiritual materials scattered on the ground, and said with a smile, "Yes, Chen Guo'er's innocence is not just about this, so you still owe me a favor. Next time we meet, remember to prepare an even more valuable gift."

Chen Guo'er: "..."

"How could there be such a shameless person in this world!"

Amidst Chen Guo'er's inner turmoil, Qin Jue enveloped himself in spiritual power, pierced through the barrier, and vanished before Chen Guo'er's eyes.

outside.

Da Bai and Zhao Qingmeng had already started a fire and were grilling meat.

"Xiao Jue, you're out. What's going on inside?" Zhao Qingmeng asked with a smile.

Qin Jue laughed and said, "The situation inside is quite chaotic, so you don't need to go in."

Zhao Qingmeng was taken aback; the situation seemed rather chaotic.

While helping to flip the grilled meat, Qin Jue told Zhao Qingmeng what had happened inside.

Zhao Qingmeng's face turned deathly pale: "You killed Feng Yaoran? The Feng family must be going crazy!"

Qin Jue said calmly, "I didn't originally intend to kill him, but since he wanted to kill me, I had no choice but to send him on his way. Sister-in-law, remember this: there's no need to show mercy to someone who wants to kill you. If you spare him, he'll only think you're too afraid to kill him. Once he's safe, he'll most likely retaliate even more fiercely! In that case, it's better to just kill him and cut off the trouble!"

Zhao Qingmeng rubbed her forehead and said, "But that's the Feng family. Not only do they have a deep foundation, but they also have considerable influence in the court."

Qin Jue lowered his eyes, a hint of coldness in them: "Anyone who dares to provoke me will die! The Feng family is no exception!"

Nobody comes looking for death, so who's going to offer him a sacrifice?

From the moment he gained the approval of the God-Slaying Blade and accepted the inheritance of the Blade-Cutting Technique, he knew that his life would inevitably involve killing!
