Chapter 1441: Scheming and Devious

Attack!

This time there was only one objective – gather all his power at one point and release it.

So without doubt, this punch was the strongest and most powerful that Qin Yu had released thus far.

His current powers were on par with a peak True Saint’s. Moreover, he had the five Divine Ways to enhance them. The power of his punch could be imagined.

Although the True Saint darkness puppet was strong, its armor kept getting hit by Qin Yu and was extremely weak.

Naturally, it was not able to withstand the intense power that came with his punch.

A loud explosion could be heard as the True Saint darkness puppet was thrown back. The armor broke into five parts and fell onto the ground. At the same time, the bottom half was also destroyed.

It was as if a bull had hit its body as it tumbled and broke.

A darkness puppet of the True Saint level, which also had the Light and Dark Body, had actually been destroyed by Qin Yu.

Although he was correct on the point that his opponent was not much different from a sitting duck, no one could ignore how powerful Qin Yu was.

But although he killed the True Saint darkness puppet, Qin Yu did not relax. In fact, he frowned harder and looked solemn.

The reason was simple. After the puppet was killed, the darkness energy in it was released and spread out.

But it did not just disappear, instead the energy was being absorbed by numerous other darkness puppets. Then, the auras of the darkness puppets grew stronger by one fold!

This was what was making Qin Yu frown. He did not look good as he had a bad feeling.

In order to test his assumption, he punched out. It was the same method of attacking but the darkness puppets in front of him could not be compared to the one he killed earlier. His reckless punch caused miserable cries to be heard as puppets were destroyed.

Qin Yu’s expression turned even more sour. Because the sight in front of him confirmed his suspicion – a black energy was released from the destroyed puppets and was being absorbed by the remaining ones.

It was like a game where the power increased the more you killed. As Qin Yu killed more darkness puppets, the overall power from them did not change. It only shifted from those that died to the ones still alive.

This meant that the more darkness puppets Qin Yu killed, the stronger the ones remaining became.

This could mean that when there were one or two left, their power would be even stronger than the True Saint darkness puppet from before.

The abilities of the Darkness Ruler to create puppets was a lot more intricate than he had thought. It even had a few hidden tricks.

Although Qin Yu would be able to eventually kill all of them…how much time would he take? And how much energy would he lose?

He might be able to get through this way but he could not take it. Otherwise, the Darkness Ruler’s plan would succeed.

If he could not take this way, then what should he do? Qin Yu felt his head hurt as he thought quickly. Soon, he had an idea.

Ultimately, darkness puppets were dead things and they specialized in a task. There would always be a way.

Although he had a Blood Jade Coffin and knew the Ghost Path cultivation method, he had not learned them, much less mastered them.

So this was not his forte.

He took out the Blood Jade Coffin. Even though he was not able to control this item belonging to the Ghost Path, he was still able to make use of it.

He needed to borrow its power for what he was going to do next.

He shook and two silhouettes flew out. It was Zhou and Lin Saint who Qin Yu had killed earlier.

After they were sucked into the Blood Jade Coffin, they lost their consciousness. However, it was as if their innate personalities were able to sense the hatred for Qin Yu.

As they gained their freedom now, they hollered and their eyes were red. They seemed to want to pounce and drag Qin Yu down with them.

“Hmph!”

Snorting, Qin Yu tightened his grip on the Blood Jade Coffin and the two Saints cried out miserably. Qin Yu did not show any fear as he lifted his finger, “Open the door to the Vanquished Nation!”

Although they had no consciousness, they were still able to understand Qin Yu’s order as he was the owner of the Blood Jade Coffin.

They flipped and reached out at the same time. They growled as if they were holding something as they pulled it.

Boom boom boom –

There was a low rumble and the vibration sounds spread outwards. A grey door appeared and was being pulled open by the souls of the two True Saints.

“Who dares to interrupt my sleep. I will take your miserable small souls as payment…” A domineering and sinister voice boomed out. He then paused, finally ‘seeing’ the people who opened the door to the Vanquished Nation.

Not much time had passed and he naturally still remembered. So the Sovereign of the Vanquished Nation, who was on par with a True Saint, suddenly felt a coldness wash over him and he shivered.

Qin Yu was expressionless as he went straight to the point, “Sovereign of the Vanquished Nation, sorry to disrupt you. I have a favor to ask. I hope you can lend me a hand and take all these puppets.”

He mentioned that he was asking a favor but he did not look the part at all. Instead, he seemed to be threatening coldly and it was evidently seeping through his words.

The Sovereign of the Vanquished Nation snorted. After all, he had his pride and authority as the Ruler of one world and was about to go against Qin Yu. However, he eventually just snorted and did not say more.

There was no choice. Ultimately, this world was ruled by strength and when Qin Yu jammed the Vanquished Nation’s door and prevented it from closing, the Sovereign still felt fear creep over him as he recalled it.

A favor it is. Perhaps he might even have a chance to build a relationship with Qin Yu and get something in return.

He could only comfort himself like this. The Sovereign coughed lightly and was about to agree when he felt his words got stuck in his throat.

This…this…

He had been startled by Qin Yu and frightened by what Qin Yu had in his hands. He had been concentrating so much that he did not notice what was strange. Now, he realized.

World of Darkness!

The Sovereign trembled and he could not say what he had planned to say.

Qin Yu frowned and sneered, “Why? Are you not willing to help me?”

He was being pushed against a wall and both sides were on fire. The Sovereign felt like crying.

He did not dare offend Qin Yu, especially now that Qin Yu had obtained this item from the Ghost Path as well as these two True Saint souls. He could open the door to the Vanquished Nation anytime…but he could not do this favour either!

Why? The West Desolate backed the World of Darkness. This was a genuinely big player, and he was a small player. If he offended them, he would die.

“Qin Yu, it is not that I do not want to help. But the World of Darkness has too strong a backing and I do not dare to offend!” The Sovereign could not be bothered about maintaining his reputation anymore as he looked stressed as he asked. His life was so difficult!

Qin Yu raised his brows and a coldness emitted from him. Do you not believe that I will enter the Vanquished Nation now and teach you a lesson!

As he was about to put pressure on the Sovereign, a soft breath blew into his ear. A warm voice soon followed, “Since he does not dare to do anything, why don’t I help you.”

The Sovereign looked as if he had come across something horrifying. He did not care about Qin Yu as he waved his sleeve, forcing the two Saint souls back and closing the door to the Vanquished Nation shut with a ‘bam’.

That was not the end, silver chains appeared and wrapped around the door to the Vanquished Nation, locking it tightly. It blocked out all auras between the World of Darkness and the Vanquished Nation.

Crack –

Crack –

Cracking sounds could be heard as cracks appeared over the door that was wrapped in silver chains. Soon, it cracked and disappeared.

Qin Yu frowned slightly as his pupils shrunk and he turned to the side. A pair of beautiful eyes appeared to be smiling at him.

Seeing him look over, the pair of eyes winked and a voice sounded, “Hi, this is the first time we are meeting. Let’s introduce ourselves.”

Qin Yu’s mouth twitched. He knew that the one that caused the Sovereign to back off and run with his tail between his legs was this one.

A mysterious existence hidden in space time!

Didn’t Stone Pagoda mention that these strange and mysterious beings liked to sign agreements with everyone the most? Why was this one so free? It felt like it had been closely watching Qin Yu’s movements.

This sensation of being watched…was really uncomfortable. He felt goosebumps.

But since it was here, Qin Yu could only suppress the apprehension he felt and said lowly, “Mysterious being from space time, I did not call for you.”

This had to be stated clearly in case he entered an agreement in the confusion. He might be set up again.

He could not really see what it looked like but an appearance floated into his mind. It had a cute face with a nose that was currently turned up in dissatisfaction.

“This Sovereign of the Vanquished Nation is too impolite. He actually ran so quickly as if he saw a ghost. He clearly forgot that he himself is an evil ghost. Despicable! If I see him again, I will teach him a lesson…” It looked at Qin Yu and sighed lightly, “I am not some despicable beast; you don’t have to be scared.”

Qin Yu did not say anything as he continued staring.

It looked slightly offended, “Fine, fine, I admit that you did not summon me and I am the one that came here by myself. Initially, I just wanted to get some small payment from you. After all, I came from so far away and it is not easy for me to be here. I did not know that you were so petty.”

As Qin Yu heard this, his heart softened. And soon, he felt a shiver run down his spine. These hidden beings from space time were strange and scary. He had clearly felt apprehensive and alarmed by it yet it was able to charm him.

Steeling his face, Qin Yu waved his hand expressionlessly, “If there is nothing else, please leave. I will deal with the problems here myself.”

It blinked and looked satisfied. Its emotions changed so drastically, it was hard to follow, “Qin Yu ah, are you sure you can handle it? I can tell you that it is not easy to kill these puppets. Moreover, there is something going on in that palace that even I cannot see clearly. If you continue to delay, things will not look good.”

Qin Yu’s expression changed slightly as he looked gloomy. He looked at the pair of eyes and took a deep breath, “Mysterious being from space time, I want to set a deal with you. What will it take for you to help me deal with these puppets?”

Being decisive was probably Qin Yu’s strong point.

Of course, what pushed him to make this decision was that his instinct told him this mysterious being was not lying.

Pak –

It did not have hands, yet the sound of fingers snapping could be heard. The eyes smiled, “I knew you were smart. Leave these puppets to me; this is a small matter.”

It paused before continuing, “As for the price, I haven’t thought about it yet. I will just remember the favor for now.”

Qin Yu shook his head, “It is best to state things clearly when dealing with a mysterious being like yourself.” Thinking about it, he said lowly, “I will offer a strong soul to you as payment.”

The being appeared indifferent as it said, “Fine, let’s do as you say. I am not anxious.”

Qin Yu chuckled bitterly internally. Like I will believe you. I almost got tricked previously. I bet that there is a one month deadline too. I have to remember this.

At this time, Stone Pagoda’s faint voice could be heard, “Master, this time you only have half a month…”

Qin Yu fumed as he heard this and almost expressed it. He gritted his teeth as he grumbled internally, “How can they change the timing as they wish? This time it is half a month, next time, it might just give me one day. How will I deal with it?”

Stone Pagoda coughed awkwardly, “Not really…changing things just on one side has a limit…hmmm, I never thought that the time limit could be played with…this being’s origin is a lot stronger than I thought…Master you have to be careful. You cannot fail the agreement…”

Qin Yu was so angry he felt like pulling Stone Pagoda out and pressing him to the ground. You bastard, why didn’t you say anything earlier!

It seemed like Stone Pagoda expected Qin Yu’s anger. As soon as he finished speaking, he hid back inside.

At a time like this, it was not time to pursue this matter. Qin Yu could only suppress his anger. He looked at the being that seemed confused yet young and inexperienced. It was so scheming and devious!
