CHAPTER 584: CHAPTER 584: NONE OF YOU CAN LEAVE

Qin Yi looked at Mo Buwen with cold eyes, then turned to Nan Zaixu in the distance and said indifferently, "Do you think I’m capable of killing him?"

"Qin Yi, if you kill him, there will be dire consequences. I advise you not to act recklessly. Some people are not to be provoked." Nan Zaixu admonished.

Qin Yi’s lips curled slightly upward. "Nan Zaixu, you are indeed very shrewd. This sounds like you’re trying to save Mo Buwen, but in reality, you’re just trying to provoke me into killing him for you, right?"

Nan Zaixu’s expression changed slightly, and he shouted angrily, "You’re talking nonsense. Mo Buwen and I have no grudges. Why would I want to harm him? Qin Yi, stop sowing discord here. I advise you to release young Mo quickly to avoid bringing great disaster upon yourself."

Qin Yi let out a disdainful laugh, eyes filled with mockery, and said sarcastically, "You people really epitomize the idiom ’hypocritical to the core.’ Plots and schemes fill your heads. From just now, you’ve been clamoring to join forces against me, yet you’ve done nothing but make empty threats."

"Nan Zaixu, you want to use me to kill Mo Buwen. This way, you’d have one less competitor, deal a blow to the Mo family, and the Mo family would only seek me to avenge Mo Buwen. Your gain would be the greatest with the least effort, killing three birds with one stone — quite the scheme."

As he spoke, Qin Yi’s gaze suddenly turned cold. "But what I want to say is that such a brainless scheme is better kept hidden to avoid embarrassment. Because, without your verbal provocation, just by Mo Buwen crossing my bottom line, he’s destined to die. However, after killing Mo Buwen, you’ll be the next to die."

Nan Zaixu’s face abruptly changed, his gaze sullen, glaring firmly at Qin Yi.

Qin Yi’s gaze remained indifferent, a faint laugh escaping his lips, before lowering his head to look at the miserable Mo Buwen. "In your next life, be smarter."

With those words, he formed a seal with one hand. The void trembled, and a massive purple handprint crashed down, cracking the ground and sweeping sand and dust.

For a long time, the dust finally settled.

Everyone wore expressions of shock, their scalps tingling. Mo Buwen had been smashed into a pulp, undeniably dead... Qin Yi had indeed killed Mo Buwen.

A hint of horror flashed in Nan Zaixu’s eyes. Although he truly wanted to use Qin Yi to eliminate Nan Zaixu, he was also worried about Qin Yi’s fear of the forces behind Mo Buwen. But now it seemed he had overestimated; Qin Yi showed no fear when killing Mo Buwen.

Qin Yi looked up at Nan Zaixu.

Nan Zaixu instinctively shivered. If Qin Yi dared to kill Mo Buwen, he would surely dare to kill him too.

Whoosh!

Nan Zaixu suddenly soared into the sky, ascending into the air.

"Qin Yi, you killed Mo Buwen, offending the Mo family. You’re going to die horribly. Today, I’ll let you be arrogant. In the future, I want to see how you evade the Mo family’s chase, running like a dog without a home, hahahaha..." Nan Zaixu roared insanely with laughter as he flew up into the sky.

This basin is surrounded by sheer cliffs, smooth as mirrors, difficult even for birds to land. But these can stop Qi Refiners below the Nascent Soul Realm; they can’t stop a Nascent Soul Realm Qi Refiner who can fly, like Nan Zaixu trying to escape.

Sha Wuqiu and the others looked at Qin Yi mockingly. Even if they couldn’t defeat Qin Yi, if they wanted to escape, Qin Yi could only watch helplessly. If a Nascent Soul Realm expert wants to flee, few can stop them.

"Qin Yi brother, you’re so handsome." The Flower Demon tilted her small head, innocent and sincere, praising him, "You’re so good-looking and your cultivation is so high; you’re truly exceptional."

Qin Yi slightly narrowed his eyes, looking at the Flower Demon with a not-quite-smiling expression. Indifferently, he said, "Baihua Valley, Baihua Pavilion, Flower Demon."

The bright smile on Flower Demon’s little face froze briefly, a sinister look flashed in her eyes. She wondered how Qin Yi knew her identity?

"Qin Yi brother, you’re amazing. How did you know that I’m from Baihua Pavilion?" The Flower Demon asked like a curious little girl, her face bearing a sweet smile, tilting her head.

"No rush, I’ll tell you a story later," Qin Yi said with a smile. He then looked up at the sky.

Boom!

A loud explosion echoed from above as Nan Zaixu came crashing down from mid-air, creating a large pit in the ground with fractures spreading out.

Everyone was shocked! They looked at Nan Zaixu in confusion. A strong Nascent Soul Realm practitioner, even with a shoulder shattered by Qin Yi, shouldn’t be unable to fly or inexplicably fall from midair, should he? And face first, it looked painful.

Only Qin Yi’s lips held a slight upward curve.

"Qin Yi, I will tear you limb from limb..." Nan Zaixu howled madly, struggling to sit up, with glaring blood stains at the corner of his mouth.

"Brother Nan, what happened?" The Flower Demon asked curiously.

Since everyone’s attention was on Qin Yi earlier, they didn’t notice what happened to Nan Zaixu, how he suddenly fell from midair.

Nan Zaixu spoke deeply, "There’s a restriction in the air."

A restriction?

Everyone’s faces changed abruptly.

It seems Qin Yi had anticipated they would try to escape from the air, so he set up a restriction beforehand in the sky.

The Flower Demon raised her hand lightly, and a boulder the size of a basketball shot like a cannonball towards the sky.

Bang!

When the rock reached a hundred meters in the air, a purple barrier suddenly appeared, rippling as it instantly reduced the rock to powder. The barrier then retracted, as if it never existed.

A sudden chilling feeling rose uncontrollably in everyone’s hearts; was Qin Yi planning to kill them all?

Qin Yi’s gaze was indifferent, devoid of any emotion. "I said before, none of you will leave."

"Qin Yi brother, you see, I haven’t harmed you. Let me go, okay? I promise I won’t be your enemy in the future. Just let me go, please, Qin Yi brother..." The Flower Demon pleaded like a little sister pampering her brother, blinking her innocent big eyes, looking pitifully at Qin Yi.

She already sensed danger. From the moment Qin Yi killed Mo Buwen, she knew she must find a way to leave here, otherwise, she might really die here.

Usually, an ordinary man, facing such a plea from an innocent-looking girl like the Flower Demon, would surely agree. However, Qin Yi’s eyes were full of teasingly playfulness, "No rush, earlier I said I’d tell you a story. It’s not too late to hit the road after you hear it."

A poisonous look flashed in the Flower Demon’s eyes. Qin Yi’s "not too late to hit the road" — was he referring to the road out, or the road to Hell?

A momentary venom flashed in the Flower Demon’s eyes, instantly replaced by an innocent appearance, her ability to change facial expressions unmatched, tilting her head, blinking her big eyes. "Qin Yi brother, what story are you going to tell me? Whatever Qin Yi brother tells, I love to listen to."

Qin Yi’s lips curled faintly upward. "Legend has it that forty years ago, a young genius girl emerged from Baihua Pavilion of Baihua Valley. At eighteen, she successfully entered the Nascent Soul Stage. An eighteen-year-old at the Nascent Soul Stage, rare throughout history. This event shocked the entire Longxia Qi Refinement lineage."
