CHAPTER 1204: CHAPTER 1204: STRANGLING FUTURE FOES! (SECOND UPDATE)

The seductive woman still wanted to argue, pretending not to know what Ye Qiu was talking about, but when Ye Qiu’s two fingers gradually tightened, she finally surrendered.

"What did you do to Pom? Why did he become like that!" the woman voiced her grievance.

Ye Qiu released his fingers, no longer restraining her, and said slowly, "Are you here to avenge him?"

"That’s right, you turned the man I love most into that state, I want to kill you, the culprit." As she spoke, she raised her long leg and chopped down fiercely.

Swish.

Even though she was wearing high heels, her movements were still swift, accurate, and ruthless; a vertical chop like a long knife cutting firewood, descending directly.

This kick missed its mark, the high heel directly pressed into the ground, creating a pit; if that high heel had really hit, it would have been truly tragic.

The seductive woman’s actions were nimble, turning around for another attack, her long leg transforming into a weapon once more.

Ye Qiu dodged left and right, occasionally glimpsing boundless scenery.

The seductive woman, failing to hit Ye Qiu several times, sped up her attacks, and for a time, countless leg shadows flashed wildly. Ye Qiu, quick in eye and hand, grabbed her ankle. The woman ceased her attack, sensing Ye Qiu’s grip was like pliers. Seeing Ye Qiu’s eyes, she knew that any further movement would lead to Ye Qiu breaking her leg without hesitation.

Ye Qiu leaned close to the woman’s face and said lightly, "First of all, I have no grudge against him; it wasn’t me who sought trouble with him, but him who came after me, claiming he wanted to kill me."

"Secondly, I didn’t kill him, which is already showing mercy."

"I don’t hit women, nor do I enjoy killing women. So, hurry up and leave before I change my mind. Never appear before me again, or next time, I won’t regard you as a woman."

Having said that, Ye Qiu released her ankle, turned, and walked away.

The seductive woman was about to step forward to continue attacking Ye Qiu, but suddenly stopped, her eyes struggling for a moment. She bit her lip and watched Ye Qiu disappear, ultimately not going after him.

"God won’t forgive you!"

...

For Ye Qiu, the vengeful woman coming after him was merely a minor episode; he didn’t take it to heart.

The next day, with the location provided by the Purple Gold Mouse, Ye Qiu and his team quickly headed to a place where sealed beings might exist.

The four arrived in a mountain area.

In a stone grotto, they discovered a dozen or so sealed beings lying in crystal coffins.

Without the slightest hesitation, Ye Qiu destroyed them immediately, giving these sealed beings no chance to awaken.

Ye Qiu spared the crystal coffins; Qin Feng said they’re treasures, beneficial to martial artists. Ordinary people sleeping on them could prolong their lives, while martial artists could use them to aid in their practice.

The Purple Gold Mouse was envious, wanting a crystal coffin, saying that after he dies, it would be nice to be buried in one.

"Until we’ve found all the sealed beings, I won’t allow you to die," said Ye Qiu.

The Purple Gold Mouse looked helpless, lamenting a bleak future.

Despite his chatterbox nature, the Purple Gold Mouse was quite a source of joy in the group, especially with his curious attitude towards everything, making the other three want to keep their distance.

To Ye Qiu, the Purple Gold Mouse was like a "Mr. Know-It-All," curious about everything.

With the first accurate discovery of sealed beings, Ye Qiu and his team repeatedly found and destroyed them under the precise guidance of the tomb-raiding expert, the Purple Gold Mouse.

In just over ten days, they discovered over thirty sealed beings, all of whom never awakened and remained in eternal slumber.

Qin Feng remarked, "What we’ve found so far are ordinary sealed beings; their powers aren’t significant, and none of them are Protectors. Even if they awake in the future, they won’t pose a big threat to us, but the Saint Heirs and Saintesses are different."

Qin Feng’s implication was clear: Just searching for ordinary sealed beings won’t have much effect on the future; they must prioritize killing the powerful Saint Heirs and Saintesses.

This task could only fall to the Purple Gold Mouse, who was pitifully obliged to rack his brains to find the sealed locations of the Saint Heirs and Saintesses.

Ye Qiu inquired about Ge Tian’s destined encounter’s timeline; Qin Feng said it would be roughly six months before sealed beings start waking up one after another.

Finding the sealed locations of the Saint Heirs and Saintesses, time was pressing.

Ye Qiu didn’t stay at the Goddess Villa; he headed to the Dragon Group Base to ask Old Rascal for help in locating them.

Ye Zi had returned to the Dragon Group Base a few days back; now Ye Zi was the group leader, managing the Dragon Group admirably with Old Rascal and Mei Huiling’s support.

Ye Qiu’s return sparked enthusiasm in many. Though he no longer held the group leader position, Ye Qiu would always be their boss in the hearts of the many Dragon Group members.

Meeting familiar faces like Mu Zhige, Lin Wurou, and Li Xiaohu again felt like a century had passed. Now the three are old members of the Dragon Group, taking on managerial roles under the group leader, leading new recruits.

After chatting a bit with them, Ye Qiu noticed all three had made significant progress in their abilities. Though they hadn’t reached the Mythic Realm, they had entered the Legendary Realm.

This was in no small part thanks to the pills Ye Qiu had left behind. When Ye Qiu chose to return to the ancient land for revenge, he left a lot of pills to encourage the Dragon Group members to train. As old members of the Dragon Group, Mu Zhige, Lin Wurou, and others not only trained themselves but also guided newcomers. As a reward for their efforts, Old Rascal and Mei Huiling decided to give each a pill.

This provided a huge surprise for the three, who had been stuck at the True Qi Realm for a long time, propelling them to break through and reach the Legendary Realm.

As their powers grew, so did the Dragon Group’s silent strength increase.

After the brief reunion, Ye Qiu went to Old Rascal and Mei Huiling’s office. Seeing Ye Qiu standing there in perfect condition, Old Rascal knew Ye Qiu had avenged his blood feud and felt happy for him.

Ye Qiu didn’t mention much about the ancient land since there were no more opponents there.

However, regarding Earth’s impending calamity, Ye Qiu revealed everything, saying in about half a year, chaos would erupt on Earth, with numerous masters emerging.

Old Rascal and Mei Huiling were taken aback by this news.

While the story sounded incredible, Old Rascal and Mei Huiling, being martial artists themselves, understood that once a martial artist’s power reached a certain level, they indeed resembled godlike figures. To seal their bodies and live to the present wasn’t too extraordinary.

"I hope with the Dragon Group’s assistance, we can kill more sealed beings now so that we’ll have fewer enemies in the future. I’ll send some information about ordinary sealed beings back to the Dragon Group, with Sanshun and Qin Feng joining forces; there should be no mistakes," Ye Qiu expressed his thoughts, which was also his primary reason for coming to the Dragon Group.

Realizing the gravity of the situation, Old Rascal and Mei Huiling knew they couldn’t let sealed beings awaken and decided to support Ye Qiu, joining forces to eliminate those who hadn’t awakened.

After leaving the Dragon Group, Ye Qiu didn’t stop and headed straight for the Capital City.
