237 Vengeful
Xu Qing paused and glanced at the fruits on the ground.
When he saw the apples and noticed the few large apples inside. Xu Qing was very curious as to how the other party had placed so many things in his robe.
The white-robed Sea Corpse Race cultivator, who was originally retreating rapidly, paused for a moment. His headgear loosened a little. It didn’t reveal his face, but his hair hung down.
His gaze also landed on the fruits on the ground.
After that, the two of them lifted their heads at the same time and their gazes met in the air.
Xu Qing did not speak.
The white-robed cultivator was also silent.
At that moment, the ground suddenly trembled and the seawater outside the island churned. An earth-shattering explosion rang out in the distance, echoing in all directions like the roar of a god, causing the entire world to seem to stir up a violent wind.
There was also a purple light that was like a sea of light from afar that instantly spread over. Upon closer inspection, one could tell that the place where this light and the rumbling sound came from was none other than the islands of the merfolk race.
This was… the tide power of the Seven Blood Eyes’ array formation described in Xu Qing’s mission.
Under the cover of this sea of light, the teleportation restrictions from the Sea Corpse Race in the Pearl Islands were immediately suppressed, allowing the teleportation arrays on the islands to be effective.
At the next instant, as the sky was covered by purple, the teleportation array in the valley behind Xu Qing that had been adjusted by the Five Peaks’ disciples shone. The first batch of disciples standing inside instantly disappeared and were teleported away.
At the same time, similar teleportations were being carried out on many islands in the Pearl Islands.
Xu Qing saw this scene but didn’t care. He could also sense that the second batch of teleportation was being prepared in the valley behind him. It seemed like it would be carried out very soon.
However, at this moment, Xu Qing was more interested in this white-robed cultivator in front of him.
The instant his gaze met the white-robed cultivator’s, Xu Qing rushed out. In his Mystic Brilliance Form under the effect of the life lantern, his speed and power were astonishing. In the blink of an eye, he approached the white-robed cultivator. This time, he didn’t target the latter’s neck but his hair.
It was as though he was more interested in the hair of this Sea Corpse Race cultivator now.
The white-robed cultivator took a deep breath and the life fires in his body instantly erupted again, forming a terrifying air wave that spread out, dodging Xu Qing’s grab. He fought with Xu Qing again.
Rumbling sounds echoed through the sky. Xu Qing’s figure was so fast that the cultivators in the valley couldn’t see him clearly at all. Even the woman from the Second Peak who hadn’t teleported away couldn’t see his movements clearly. She could only barely see his afterimages.
The ground trembled and terrifying collision sounds occasionally rang out in the surroundings. This was enough to show how dangerous this battle was.
As for the white-robed cultivator, his attacks were also sharp. He fought Xu Qing fiercely outside the valley while protecting his hair.
He was indeed extraordinary. The Diamond Sect’s ancestor couldn’t match his speed at all or get a chance to attack.
Even the shadow was in the same situation. Compared to the white-robed cultivator, its speed was too slow.
Only Xu Qing was able to attack fiercely. His magic power swelled and he punched out with his right hand. He then immediately dodged to the side. After dodging the elbow of the white-robed cultivator, he lifted his knee and ruthlessly kicked the other party’s lower body.
The expression of the white-robed cultivator changed.
However, he was also a ruthless person. He slapped Xu Qing’s knee with one hand. At the same time, he opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of dense corpse poison at Xu Qing.
As soon as this poison appeared, Xu Qing’s entire body seemed to be about to corrode. However, his expression was as calm as ever. After his knee was blocked, he twisted his body and his left leg swept toward the white-robed cultivator like a whip. His target was the head.
The instant they dodged each other, Xu Qing performed a series of hand seals and waved his hand. Immediately, balls of black fire spread out from his entire body.
They formed fire palms that headed straight for the white-robed cultivator.
This white-robed cultivator’s breathing was hurried. Clearly, he had consumed a lot of energy in this intense battle.
He let out a low roar and performed a series of hand seals with one hand, pressing down on Xu Qing.
With this push, the void in front of him collapsed and rapidly spread toward Xu Qing.
Xu Qing’s expression changed and he instantly dodged.
However, as soon as he dodged, the white-robed cultivator suddenly sped up and appeared in front of him, pressing down fiercely.
Blood flowed out of the corner of Xu Qing’s mouth. After his body retreated by 300 meters, he sped up and got close again. Ten heavenly sabers manifested and landed fiercely.
The eyes of the white-robed cultivator narrowed. He couldn’t dodge in time and his body was blasted back by almost a kilometer. He spat out a mouthful of blood and rushed out again.
When they got close again, Xu Qing bent his knees and ruthlessly kicked the other party’s lower body again.
From what he sensed, the other party’s lower body was his weakness.
The white-robed cultivator cursed but his voice was drowned out by the rumbling.
Madness appeared in his eyes. This time, he actually didn’t block. Instead, he bent his knees and ruthlessly… collided with Xu Qing’s knee in the air.
Xu Qing finally grabbed the other party’s hair and ruthlessly pulled it off.
A muffled groan and a miserable cry rang out from the two of them.
The one who let out a muffled groan was Xu Qing while the miserable cry was let out by the white-robed cultivator. Although the sounds were different, the two of them retreated the same way. Their knees were bent unnaturally.
However, compared to Xu Qing, the knee of the white-robed cultivator caved in as well. Clearly, his injuries were even more serious and his forehead was sweating from the pain.
As Xu Qing retreated, his eyes flashed. In front of the white-robed cultivator, he lifted the hair in his right hand. With a slight sway, the hair turned into ashes and dissipated.
This scene was exactly the same as a certain scene in the past. However, it was only a strand of hair back then, and now, there was a handful.
After destroying the hair, Xu Qing was eager to continue fighting when an anxious voice rang out from behind him.
“Senior Brother, the tide is about to end. This is the last teleportation!”
Xu Qing’s eyes narrowed when he heard this. At that moment, a ball of black fire soared into the sky in the distance, as though it wanted to cover half of the sky.
Among the flames was the figure of the Sea Corpse Race. From afar, it looked like a dwarf. He was walking toward the Pearl Islands with his hands behind his back.
Wherever he passed, the seawater would split on its own, forming a large crack like a canyon. As he walked over, the seawater rapidly spread.
The entire Pearl Islands was trembling. The terrifying pressure caused the sky to change color and the wind and clouds to surge.
Xu Qing’s eyes narrowed and he retreated without any hesitation, instantly returning to the valley. At that moment, the second batch of teleportation had ended and the third batch was ready to be activated.
Everyone from the Seven Blood Eyes in the teleportation array was paying close attention to Xu Qing’s battle. They were anxiously waiting for the teleportation array to be activated and also waiting for Xu Qing to return.
Now that Xu Qing had appeared, the disciples of the Fifth Peak immediately activated the teleportation array without hesitation. With the help of the tide in the sky, the teleportation array instantly shone.
As for the white-robed cultivator outside the valley, he didn’t chase after Xu Qing.
He stared at Xu Qing who was standing in the teleportation array. The two of them looked at each other and saw a hint of strangeness in each other’s eyes.
At the next instant, their gazes were blocked by the light of the array. The teleportation started and everyone in the teleportation array, including Xu Qing, instantly disappeared.
After Xu Qing and the others left, the white-robed cultivator turned his head and looked at the sky. After discovering that the Sea Corpse Race’s Golden Core cultivator had gone to the other islands, he couldn’t help but grimace in pain.
He rubbed his knee and also touched his head that was missing a bunch of hair. He cursed inwardly.
“What’s going on? It’s only been a while since we last met. How did this kid become so powerful? It hurts.”
“This kid should have recognized me. He actually specially targeted my lower body and even pulled my hair. How despicable. He doesn’t respect his superior at all. Didn’t I just pull a strand of his hair last time!!”
“Is it easy for me? That big plan requires a high-level corpse heart of the Sea Corpse Race. I can only exchange this thing with the contribution points of the Sea Corpse Race. I spent a huge price to pretend to be a perfect Sea Corpse Race cultivator.”
“I originally planned to come over to scare him and take some pill furnaces back to earn some contribution points, and also beat him up a little. I only wanted to take a photo of it as a memento as a revenge for the poisoning in the passage on the merfolk island, but how the heck did it come to this.”
“It hurts!” The white-robed cultivator waved his right arm that had collapsed by half. It was unknown what method he used but his arm actually grew back.
After that, his breathing became hurried and he recovered after a long time. As he cursed, he limped to the place where the fruits were scattered.
At that moment, most of the fruits had been destroyed under the attacks of the two people earlier. Only half of an apple was still there. He picked it up with heartache and took a bite after looking around.
However, at the next instant, his eyes widened and he quickly spat it out.
“The apple has poison!”
The white-robed cultivator cursed and thought to himself that this couldn’t continue. As a leader, he couldn’t lose face. In the future, he had to find an opportunity to undo another seal and teach that kid a lesson. He had to maintain his dignity at all times.
Although he still couldn’t withstand undoing another seal, he felt that he had to regain his face. With this thought in mind, he left.
At the same time, on Mire Island, the figures of Xu Qing and the others appeared as a teleportation array flashed. As soon as they walked out, Xu Qing could sense that the atmosphere in the frontline command center was very tense. Figures kept moving past in the sky.
The flames of war in the distance were intense. Everyone was even busier than before. At that moment, as soon as they teleported out, more than half of them cupped their fists at Xu Qing and bade farewell.
The life fire woman from the Second Peak was the same. After exchanging voice transmission contact with Xu Qing, she left in a hurry.
Gu Muqing was the same. Before she left, she bid farewell to Xu Qing. Xu Qing also returned the jade slip that controlled the forbidden pill to her. Before they had left, he had already activated the forbidden pill.
“Senior Brother Xu, my group’s mission hasn’t been completed. We have to go to another place to finish a forbidden pill. I heard from Master that our Seven Blood Eyes has been preparing for this war for many years and we will definitely win. There will be some larger movements next. Senior Brother, you have to be careful.”
Gu Muqing spoke softly with a hesitant expression. She suddenly moved closer to Xu Qing and spoke in an extremely low voice.
“I’m a core disciple, so I must complete some missions. However, Senior Brother, you actually don’t have to do this, especially… regarding the missions of the seven guarding islands of the Sea Corpse Race. Senior Brother, you must not accept them…”
With that, Gu Muqing bowed to Xu Qing and quickly left.
Xu Qing fell into deep thought and took out his mission token to take a look. His rescue mission had already been displayed as completed and more missions were constantly refreshing.
Xu Qing’s gaze swept over, and the image of the white-robed cultivator he had fought with earlier appeared in his mind. Although the other party was from the Sea Corpse Race no matter how he looked at it and the corpse poison also matched the characteristics of the Sea Corpse Race, Xu Qing felt a sense of familiarity after attacking a few times.
He was familiar with the other party’s gaze and some of his movements. This was especially so for the apples.
“How did the captain become a member of the Sea Corpse Race? Could it be that he has taken a fancy to something in the Sea Corpse Race, so he used some unknown method to disguise himself as a member of the Sea Corpse Race?”
“Of course, it’s also possible that he was unlucky and was killed by the Sea Corpse Race and transformed into a Sea Corpse Race member.”
If it was anyone else, Xu Qing would feel that the second possibility was more likely. However, if it was the captain, he felt that the first possibility was more in line with the other party’s crazy personality.
“However, with the captain’s petty nature, he will definitely be indignant. His cultivation is unfathomable. Perhaps he will find an opportunity to get back at me. I have to open my magic apertures faster!”
Xu Qing revealed a serious expression.
