CHAPTER 604: CHAPTER 604: DRAGON DIVES INTO THE SEA

Sha Ming slightly nodded: "Brother Piao is right. We are still within the array arranged by Qin Yi. Once I break the formation, we will guard the exit."

Bang!

A storm swept through.

Shao Ming forcefully broke the great array with a palm strike, and the three of them darted towards the valley entrance like lightning.

However, half an hour later, Sha Ming suddenly stopped.

"Big brother, what is it?"

Sha Ming’s face was gloomy as he pointed down: "Look there."

Sha Chen looked down; he had been focused on the front and had not noticed the ground. It turned out that there were three corpses lying on the ground, which were the bodies of Sha Lei, Sha Bao, and Sha Muji, killed by Qin Yi’s sneak attack.

Piao Yunfeng looked puzzled: "Before entering, I only saw many women’s corpses at the valley entrance, no others. Where did these three corpses come from?"

Sha Ming’s facial muscles kept twitching: "These are the bodies of my three brothers."

Piao Yunfeng was startled and exclaimed: "Could it be that we’ve been walking further into the valley all this time?"

Sha Ming’s teeth ground loudly, his old face livid, and he nodded slightly.

"Looks like we’ve been tricked by Qin Yi again. Big brother broke the array, but we probably fell into another great array, which caused us to lose our direction and head deeper into the valley," Sha Chen said angrily.

Sha Ming’s face was full of murderous intent: "Qin Yi is meticulous and has calculated our every move. This child is dangerous; if not removed, all the nations are at risk."

"Qin Yi might have already escaped the valley by now. Can we still catch up?" Piao Yunfeng said seriously.

Sha Ming said sternly: "Whether we can chase or not, we must try. As long as there is a sliver of a chance, we must kill this person."

"Sha Chen, we can’t leave our brothers’ bodies exposed. Bury them here first. Later, we will move them to the clan’s cemetery, so they can rest in peace."

Sha Chen nodded, descended from mid-air, and blasted three large pits into the ground to bury the bodies of Sha Bao and the others.

At this moment, outside the valley, Qin Yi was also standing in front of a new grave.

This grave was much larger than usual because it contained the women he had saved, who were ultimately killed by Sha Ming.

"You were innocent and probably never harmed anyone. Unfortunately, heaven is blind, letting you fall into the hands of beasts, ending your lives. I, Qin Yi, am in a dire situation and have no time to build graves for you individually. I can only bury you together. May you find companionship on your journey in the underworld, so you won’t be lonely."

"In the end, I couldn’t save you, and I am ashamed. But I promise you, one day I will kill Sha Ming and Sha Chen to avenge your spirits in heaven."

"In this world, being weak is a mistake. I hope in your next life, you will be reborn strong and never suffer such unjust deaths again. Rest in peace!"

Qin Yi slightly bowed and sighed for the tragic fate of these women.

Then, Qin Yi soared into the sky, transforming into a stream of light heading towards Longxia.

...

...

Two days later, Qin Yi finally set foot on the territory of Longxia.

"It feels reassuring to be on my own land." Qin Yi murmured, turning to look towards Wolf Country, his eyes cold: "Wolf Country, wait for this young master to return. By then, your Qi Refiner lineage will pile bodies like mountains, and blood will flow for miles."

With these words, Qin Yi soared once again, disappearing like a stream of light.

What Qin Yi didn’t know was that two hours after he left, Sha Ming and the others actually caught up.

"Big brother, ahead is Longxia," Sha Chen said angrily.

The three stabilized their figures, all with grim and terrifying faces.

"In the end, he managed to escape. Releasing a tiger back to the mountain and a hidden dragon into the sea, the consequences are unthinkable." Sha Ming said in a deep voice.

The three looked towards Longxia, their eyes shining with cold light, remaining silent for a long time.

This time, the nations suffered too much. Qin Yi alone severed the Qi Cultivation lineage of many nations. Even three centenarians like them were killed, and they were played around.

All three felt a suffocating frustration stuck in their chests, very uncomfortable.

"This child’s cultivation, his tactics, unmatched in the world. Among the prodigies of many nations, none can rival him. He is only in his twenties, and when he grows further, the nations may never find peace again."

Piao Yunfeng looked at Sha Ming: "Brother Sha, what plans do you have? I will fully cooperate. This child must be eliminated, no matter the cost."

Sha Ming’s eyes were sinister: "There are few young ones of note left. In the future, for decades, it’s hard for the Qi Refinement lineage of the nations to recover. That’s why we old fellows must make the effort."

"Speak your mind, Brother Sha," Piao Yunfeng said.

Sha Ming said in a deep voice: "When I return, I plan to persuade the surviving old friends of the nations to restart the Lopshen Mountain War."

Piao Yunfeng’s eyes widened, full of shock.

Sha Ming said: "All the prodigies of the nations have been killed, and the Qi Refiner lineage can’t hope to avenge the defeat of past years within decades. The young can’t be relied upon, so while we old-timers still live, we must act and wash away that shame."

Piao Yunfeng’s eyes flickered; he had a thought he didn’t voice, which was that Sha Ming only thought of washing away the shame but didn’t consider what if they lost?

"Brother Piao, even if it’s just to kill Qin Yi, we must launch another Lopshen Mountain War. As long as Qin Yi lives, the prodigies of the nations and the entire Qi Refiner lineage may never rise again."

Piao Yunfeng’s eyes hardened. Sha Ming was right; Qin Yi was too terrifying and must be eliminated.

"Alright, once I return, I’ll make some arrangements and then persuade those still-living old friends."

Sha Ming nodded slightly, his voice grim: "Longxia, this time we will not repeat the past mistakes."

...

...

Qin Yi had no idea that Sha Ming and the others relentlessly pursued him all the way to the border. Nor did he know that to kill him, they would join forces with the strong of the nations and launch another Lopshen Mountain War.

He raced ahead, heading straight for Xuanwu Mountain.

However, midway, a figure flew towards him.

"Qin Yi?"

The newcomer was Xuanwu, looking surprised to see Qin Yi.

"Old Xuanwu, where are you going?" Meeting Xuanwu here, Qin Yi was equally surprised.

Xuanwu frowned: "You ask where I’m going? Naturally, to save you. Xiahou Jun and those youngsters told me you were trapped by the Sha Family Five Tigers in Wolf Country, and your life was in danger, urging me to save you. Why are you here?"

Qin Yi rolled his eyes: "What’s the matter? Are you disappointed to see me here?"

"Honestly, a bit. I wanted to see you, this foul-mouthed boy, in a dire situation with no escape from heaven or earth."

Qin Yi was speechless, silently cursing in his heart: Xuanwu, you old bastard.

"No escape from heaven or earth? You might never see that in this lifetime because it won’t happen to me. If there’s no way up to heaven, I’ll carve one out. If there’s no door to go underground, I’ll push open the gates of Yama Palace myself and have some tea with King Yan."

Xuanwu stared at Qin Yi in a daze and finally came to his senses after a long while, full of disdain: "Stop bragging so much; even cattle need a sex life."

Qin Yi’s lips twitched a bit: "You sure know how to converse, speaking loudly without being vulgar."
