CHAPTER 419: CHAPTER 260: ARE YOU CRAZY? ARE YOU SICK OR SOMETHING? _2

"Xiao Tai..."

Qin Yang was about to speak when he sensed something wrong with "Qin Tian" before him.

At this moment, Qin Tian’s room was filled with the stench of blood, and the bloodstains on his clothes were still vividly red.

"Mr. Yang."

Wen Zhixing spoke, his complexion pale.

Qin Yang hurriedly stepped forward, grasped Wen Zhixing’s wrist, and while examining him, asked, "Xiao Tian, what happened to you?"

His tone was somewhat anxious.

It couldn’t be that Qin Tian had also encountered some trouble, could it?

Wait, that’s not right. Inside "Qin Tian’s" body, there seemed to be an extremely powerful force surging outward.

Qin Hao, on the other hand, had a glint in his eyes.

Qin Tian injured? What a great opportunity!

Because of the Fortune Divine Devil Skill, neither of them had discovered that Wen Zhixing’s cultivation had already reached the Genius Spirit Realm.

"It’s nothing, just a minor injury. I had some insights earlier and accidentally broke through in my Hundred Tribulations Ancient Skill."

Wen Zhixing casually wiped away the fresh blood lingering at the corner of his mouth and said with an expressionless face.

"You’ve cultivated this skill?"

Upon hearing this, Qin Yang breathed a sigh of relief, his gaze filled with surprise.

He was the one who had taken Qin Tian to the Hundred Tribulations Holy Land and had indeed given him this introductory cultivation skill. However, very few people actually practiced this skill.

"Hundred Tribulations Ancient Skill!"

Behind them, Qin Hao’s expression changed markedly upon hearing the name.

This was a cultivation skill only obtainable by those who joined the Hundred Tribulations Holy Land. He had never been to the Hundred Tribulations Holy Land, yet Qin Tian clearly had. It was already obvious whom Qin Yang favored.

"Xiao Tian, now is not the time for a breakthrough. Let me help you suppress it."

Realizing that "Qin Tian" was desperately trying to suppress his cultivation, Qin Hao quickly stepped forward and rapidly pressed specific points on "Qin Tian’s" body.

A powerful aura slowly entered Wen Zhixing’s body. This aura was cool and incredibly comforting.

Moreover, the location of each touch was meticulously chosen, as if arranging some kind of special array.

"Alright."

After a moment, Qin Hao withdrew his hands.

A pattern resembling the Yin Yang Pisces emerged on Wen Zhixing’s body, specks of light flickering in and out of existence.

"This is the Small Yin-Yang Cycle Formation Array. It can temporarily suppress the spiritual qi within your body," Qin Hao explained, letting out a long breath. Beads of sweat had formed on his forehead.

It was evident that setting up this array had been extremely difficult for him.

Meanwhile, the Spiritual Qi within Wen Zhixing’s body immediately began to normalize, and the turbulent flow of his blood and qi also started to calm down.

This Small Yin-Yang Cycle Formation Array could actually temporarily transform the power within his body into another, unknown form of energy. And this transformed energy seemed to lack any offensive power whatsoever.

Wen Zhixing’s eyes flickered. This array is somewhat similar to my Inborn Divine Ability. That means I could also use my Inborn Divine Ability to transform the power within my own body. What if I could transform someone else’s power...

Wen Zhixing suddenly had a new idea. If that were possible, wouldn’t I be invincible? I could directly nullify an opponent’s attack.

Unfortunately, now was not the time to experiment, and Wen Zhixing had to restrain his desire to try.

"Mr. Yang, what has happened?" Wen Zhixing asked, wanting to first understand the current situation.

Qin Yang sighed lightly, glanced at "Qin Tian," then said, "Xiao Tian, something’s gone wrong. We might end up trapped here..."

...

Soon, Wen Zhixing learned most of the news.

The Lin family hadn’t made a move yet, but a major power like them had already received word.

Qin Yang also told Wen Zhixing that he had placed Divine Soul Marks on Si Nanyan and another person.

"Mr. Yang, then we must leave this place quickly!" Wen Zhixing suddenly stood up, his eyes shining brightly, as if he were extremely agitated.

Exactly! He had just been wondering what excuse he could use to leave this place. And now, wasn’t the excuse delivered right to his doorstep?

"Xiao Tian, you don’t understand. This is the Heaven Sealing Earth Locking Array. Even with my cultivation, I can’t break through it," Qin Yang shook his head.

The Lin family has already taken action; how could they let us leave so easily?

"Heaven Sealing Earth Locking Array? Mr. Yang, don’t worry. I have a Spiritual Treasure that can break this array." Wen Zhixing laughed, and with a flip of his right hand, a milky-white pearl appeared in his palm, emanating a faint light.

After so much time, the Barrier Breaking Pearl had finally accumulated enough energy to be used once more. However, the energy within was clearly not fully restored.

"This is... a Spiritual Treasure—the Barrier Breaking Pearl!" Qin Yang’s eyes narrowed slightly, then widened.

It was actually the Barrier Breaking Pearl! This was indeed a rare treasure. Rumor had it that the Barrier Breaking Pearl could break through all array prohibitions and space barriers. The only drawback was that after one use, it took a very long time to slowly recover its energy. If not for this limitation, the Barrier Breaking Pearl might well have been one of the top-tier Spiritual Treasures.

Seeing Wen Zhixing actually possessed such a treasure, Qin Hao’s fists clenched once more.

Damn it! He didn’t even have such a treasure, yet Qin Tian did!

"The energy accumulated in this Barrier Breaking Pearl seems a bit insufficient. It might not be enough to break open the grand array..." Qin Yang, however, still hesitated.

Actually, if it was just about breaking a small corner of the grand array, it shouldn’t be a big problem with the help of this Barrier Breaking Pearl. But he still had other concerns. If they left now, what would the Lu Family think? What if it confirmed that they were the murderers?

"Alternatively, let’s go find Lin Baichuan now. With me present, the Lin family should give some face to the Purple Cloud Divine Sect," Qin Yang pondered for a moment, then suggested.

"Mr. Yang, we have to leave," Wen Zhixing said, understanding Qin Yang’s hesitation. He then gritted his teeth and declared, "I killed Lu Shangxing. If we don’t leave, I will die."

"What!"

As soon as these words were spoken, both Qin Yang and Qin Hao were stunned.

What? You killed Lu Shangxing? When did you kill him? Their eyes went wide. Hold on, are you mistaken?

"It’s true. I was the one who killed him," Wen Zhixing said calmly, then reactivated the array method to shield his aura.

Then, under their shocked gazes, he tossed Lu Shangxing’s corpse out from his Universe Belt.

Qin Yang: "..."

Qin Hao: "..."

Madman!

Looking at the headless corpse before them, the corners of their mouths twitched slightly.

For the first time, the two of them truly sensed the madness of "Qin Tian."

In the past, rumors in the outside world claimed Qin Tian had some unhinged traits, but to those within their circle, it seemed manageable. At most, he was considered to have the brash temperament of an adolescent.

But now, both of them had changed their minds.

Damn it! Qin Tian was truly audacious! How could he actually kill Lu Shangxing?

"Quick, put it away!" Qin Yang was in no mood to ask "Qin Tian" what had happened; his mind was solely focused on how to escape.

The next moment, his gaze turned to Qin Hao. "Xiao Hao, you and Xiao Tian are brothers. I don’t usually care about your rivalry, but this is not the time for you to kick him while he’s down. This matter could even endanger our lives."

Qin Yang’s expression was extremely serious. This was no joking matter. If Qin Hao lost his senses now, it wouldn’t just be Qin Tian who died. All three of them might not make it out. This could even plunge the relationship between the Purple Cloud Divine Sect and the Lu Family to an absolute low.

"I understand," Qin Hao nodded, his face somber.

This was indeed a great opportunity to get rid of Qin Tian, but it would also put him at great risk.

Compared to the incredibly tense pair, Wen Zhixing was much calmer. He methodically put away Lu Shangxing’s corpse, then said righteously, "Mr. Yang, Big Brother, I didn’t expect the Lin family to react so quickly. It seems I’ve dragged you into this. How about I leave alone first, and you two stay here? You can just disassociate yourselves from this matter."

"Xiao Tian, you..."

Upon hearing this, Qin Yang and Qin Hao looked at "Qin Tian" with an extremely unfamiliar gaze.

What was going on? This didn’t sound like something Qin Tian would say. But his words were as good as unsaid. If Qin Tian left, they wouldn’t be able to escape involvement either.

Qin Yang pondered for a moment, then finally said decisively, "Forget it. If we’re leaving, we leave together. As long as we’re not caught, the Lin family, wary of the Purple Cloud Divine Sect’s power, will have to let the matter rest to keep the peace."

"I’ll follow Mr. Yang’s arrangements," Wen Zhixing nodded.

Very good. This way, the Qin Family and the Purple Cloud Divine Sect were likely to be embroiled in a serious conflict. He just wondered who would win. Wen Zhixing had already planned to spread the news of "Qin Tian" killing Lu Shangxing far and wide.
