Chapter 449 - I Don't Go Back On My Words

Shang Qing and his other two Qi Practitioners were stunned. They stared at the eight shining divine herbs in Zhong Yue’s secret realms as well as the little white carrot beside him that was also a divine herb!

There was a total of nine divine herbs!

All this time they spent hunting for the divine herbs… and here is a man who had nine!

But this was the Returning Ruins, there was no laws, no rules, no restrictions. The only law that was followed here was the law of the jungle. The strong deserved the best while the weak could only blame themselves for their weakness!

Along the way, the three of them worked together and took down many Qi Practitioners, most of whom were poor like beggars. On the other hand, the demon Qi Practitioner they just killed had three divine herbs on him. He was already their wealthiest victim.

But now, Zhong Yue just blinded their eyes with the sight of nine divine herbs!

Shang Qing’s face turned solemn, and one of the Qi Practitioner’s breath grew heavier, and he whispered softly, “Mister Shang Qing, we…”

While another Qi Practitioner in his prime ages smiled and said, “If he had nothing, we could have still let him go and gone after him once he acquired divine herbs. But now, since he has nine of them already, it is more than enough for us to rob him now!’

Shang Qing was still hesitating, and he whispered lowly, “This is not one or two, but nine divine herbs…”

The two Qi Practitioners were puzzled, but anyhow, the younger Qi Practitioner stepped forward and said laughingly, “I know you are a friend of our mister, leave your divine herbs on the ground, and you may leave safely!”

“No rush, I still have divine weapons.” Zhong Yue smiled.

The Kui Long Divine Drum, Golden Peng Sword, and the Xuan Yin Hundred Demon Banners all flew out as he said, “These three divine weapons, are senior martial brothers not interested in them?”

The eyes of the two Qi Practitioners widened even further, and their breaths turned to heavy pants. They exchanged a look and saw the same greed in each other’s eyes.

Shang Qing had the divine weapon, it was given to him by his mother Sheng Zhen God. But they weren’t strong enough to be given such weapons. Even the divine weapon and demon divine weapon they had was plundered from the demon expert they had just killed, Shang Qing might not still be willing to give it to them.

However, if they could take down Zhong Yue and steal his divine weapons, then there would be no reason for Shang Qing to not distribute one to them each.

The divine weapons are the most valuable treasures a Qi Practitioner could ever hope to obtain!

“Mister!” Now, even the middle-age Qi Practitioner was pleading.

Shang Qing was still hesitating. Nine divine herbs, it really scared him a lot. If Zhong Yue had one or two divine herbs, he would have already taken action!

But nine divine herbs…

Just how many Kun Lun and A’thoer Qi Practitioners has he killed to get so many?

The hesitating Shang Qing raised his brows as he thought, He has divine demons weapons, which means he had to have killed at least one demon Qi Practitioner. Then there is the Kui Long Divine Drum which belonged to the young god of Kui Long Celestial Race, Kui Longzi. This means that he’s also killed Kui Longzi…

The other two Qi Practitioners couldn’t hold themselves back any longer, and the young Qi Practitioner stepped forward and raised his hand toward Husan Weng. He smiled as he said, “Since you are so cooperative, planning to offer your divine weapons to us. Then we shall gladly accept them…”

The huge carrot attacked back, it shouted in rage, “How dare you touch me? Do you not know who I am? Why don’t you go around and ask in Returning Ruins, who doesn’t know me Husan Weng…”

Boom——

The young Qi Practitioner spurted out a mouth of blood and was sent flying back, crashing back on the ground. Sounds of bones cracking could be heard, and by the sounds alone, Zhong Yue had determined that at least three rib bones were broken!

The middle-age Qi Practitioner was shocked, he surged out his soul weapon and said frigidly, “How dare you fight back, you bastard!”

“I didn’t.” Zhong Yue smiled and answered placidly.

He said, “I’ve just shown you the nine divine herbs and three divine weapons I have, but never once did I say that I would give it to you. I’m guessing that the three of you have gotten quite a harvest from others as well? Why don’t you all take them out and show me as well, sounds good?”

The middle-age Qi Practitioner’s face changed drastically, he chided, “You…”

“I am robbing you,” Zhong Yue interrupted him and finished the sentence. He said apologetically to Shang Qing, “Brother Shang Qing, I’m sorry, but please take your treasures out now. I’m in a hurry.”

Shang Qing’s hesitation was quickly wiped away, and he laughed in reply, “Senior Martial Brother Zhong, you really are a unique man. I’ve three men, and you are only one. Do you think you can win against us?”

“No. In my eyes, there is you and you only.”

Zhong Yue reached out and clenched on the Golden Peng Sword, the Kui Long Divine Drum flew out and revolved behind within his light wheels. He said placidly, “The two of them are just weaklings I can kill with a swing of my arm. They are already dead men walking, but if you hand your treasures over now, you may still live. Else, death will also be your end.”

“Presumptuous!”

The middle-age Qi Practitioner turned gloomy, just as he was going to step out, Shang Qing stopped raised a hand and stopped the Qi Practitioner. Shang Qing then bowed down and said laughingly, “Senior Martial Brother Zhong, I’m sorry for disturbing you, I hope we can have your forgiveness…”

Seeing Shang Qing conceding to Zhong Yue, the other two Qi Practitioners were stunned. They knew very well of Shang Qing’s arrogant and self-conceited personality. Although he always seemed like a perfect gentleman, deep down, he had always viewed himself as superior to everyone else around him. Yet… he was bowing to this man and seeking his forgiveness.

A slit emerged on Zhong Yue’s forehead and widened as he activated out the divine third eye just when Shang Qing was coming up from the bow, and his hands came out of his sleeves. Shang Qing saw Zhong Yue’s divine eye emerging, and he dared not to continue taking his bow out.

He maintained his body stance, curling his body at the waist and retreating back slowly just like that, all the while, laughing, “I’m sorry, we never intended to offend you.”

He took tens of steps back, and as soon as he thought that he was far enough from Zhong Yue, he had then straightened his body and grabbed the other two Qi Practitioners with one hand each while shooting out at the drop of a hat.

“What a strong guy…” Zhong Yue’s face was solemn as he watched them disappear from his sight.

Shang Qing speed and movement patterns carried a strange rhythm. His movements were flawless to the point that Zhong Yue was unable to a chance to strike. And if Zhong Yue had attacked recklessly, he would be able to block it easily and retaliate with a counterattack.

For even Zhong Yue to be unable to discern any flaws... one could tell how magnificent Shang Qing’s skills were.

Shang Qing brought the two Qi Practitioners away from Zhong Yue at a great speed. Suddenly, a loud laughter came rushing into his ears, saying, “Brother Shang Qing, what a surprise to also see you here!”

Shang Qing raised his head up, and his eyes brightened up and saw a horse-faced young man with two Tian Si Qi Practitioners strode toward them. He then smiled and replied, “Brother Shaojun! I heard that Ma Wang God has taken in two Kun Peng magnates, where are they?”

The horse-faced young man’s name was Ma Shaojun, a disciple of the Ma Wang God and also a young god, he replied, “We’ve gone our separate ways. Peng Qianqiu and Peng Jinyi are heading toward the Peaches of Immortality.”

The middle-aged Qi Practitioner couldn’t hold himself and said, “Senior Martial Brother Shaojun, there is a fortune in front of us. We’ve just met with a man, he had nine divine herbs and three divine weapons. My mister was worried about his followers’ safety, so we let him go. But if Senior Martial Brother Shaojun can cooperate with our mister, we will be able to capture him easily!”

“Nine divine herbs and three divine weapons? Is he like a divine shopkeeper or something?”

Ma Shaojun was shocked, he turned to Shang Qing, and the latter nodded at him. Rays flashed across Ma Shaojun’s eyes and he laughed, “It’s a wise choice you’ve made to not act rashly. Only an outstanding expert can acquired nine divine herbs in such a lawless place like Returning Ruins. Brother Shang Qing can never protect the two of you while battling with such an opponent at the same time! However, my junior martial brothers and I can work together with the three of you, that way, there will be no dangers anymore. Where is this man at?”

Rays flashed across Shang Qing’s eyes as well, and he smiled in reply, “Not far from here, just behind of us. However, I ask for your pardon as I have no ill-intentions of not working with Brother Shaojun, but that he is a friend of mine. We’ve met before, and I can’t have possibly killed him for his treasures. I can’t join with Brother Shaojun in this. I’m sorry for that and I wish you luck. If you will, please excuse us!”

As he finished saying, Shang Qing then turned and left with his two followers.

Ma Shaojun watched as they left, rays flashed across his eyes, and he looked toward the direction where Zhong Yue was at. He strode forward in firm steps and sneered coldly as he said, “Cowards. They are afraid of him, but we aren’t!”

The two Tian Si Qi Practitioners then quickly followed behind.

It wasn’t too far before Shang Qing stopped moving and the middle-aged Qi Practitioner finally had a chance to ask, “Why didn’t mister join hands with Senior Martial Brother Shaojun?”

“What is in it for us?”

Shang Qing sneered coldly, he said, “An alliance formed has to split every penny among the allies. But … if I let Ma Shaojun fight Zhong Yue, no matter if either any one of the parties won or both suffered great damages, I will still be able to snatch the end prize from them all. Be it Ma Shaojun or Zhong Yue, their treasures will all be mine!”

The two Qi Practitioners were stunned, they then praised, “Mister, praise your intelligence!”

Shang Qing turned, and they went back the same path as they came, he was saying placidly, “When the mantis is stalking at the cicada, it would be oblivious of the oriole behind it. Now, we shall turn back and nicely play the role of oriole. We shall claim all the goods for our own use!”

The three of them quickly rushed back, they could hear the sounds of weapon clashings and hollers of cultivators coming from the battlefield, growing louder in their ears as they drew nearer. Shang Qing was overjoyed, he thought in his heart, They did clashed! Ma Shaojun, Zhong Yue, both of you are too naive to ever fight with me!

Then, the three of them saw a sky-piercing ray coming from the back of a mountain. Then, there were the godly totem patterns moving around.

Dong, dong, dong——

There was the sounds of drum thrumming and also neighs of horses and clattering voices as the horse herd started galloping on the field. Clearly, Zhong Yue and Ma Shaojun have clashed together.

From the sounds created from the clashing of skills and divine weapons, Shang Qing could tell that Zhong Yue and Ma Shaojun have fought all their might right from the start. Their attacks were fierce and violent as both attempted to kill the other one in strong force.

Their prowesses are really strong! But the stronger the fight, the more severe their injuries would be and the faster they will die!

Shang Qing and his followers hiked the mountain and reached the other side. They looked forward and met right with a soul trembling scene — Zhong Yue was in the form of a human-headed snake, he clenched the Golden Peng Sword and pointed the sword tip on Ma Shaojun’s throat on the ground. While a loud thundering noise crashed within Zhong Yue’s light wheels and Ma Shaojun was shattered into pieces!

Shang Qing was shocked, his heart shuddered and it was this moment, Zhong Yue’s divine third eye opened. A flash of godly ray flitted out thrusting at him!

Shang Qing quickly put his hands out from the sleeves and held a divine mirror in front of him. The godly ray shot on the divine mirror and was reflected back at Zhong Yue!

Zhong Yue let out a raging roar, the Kui Long Divine Drum flew out and he swung his snake tail out with incredible force. The divine drum was struck, and a loud booming noise was created, breaking the godly rays into three parts and shot them back at Shang Qing!

Dong——

The Kui Long Divine Drum was also shot out and rammed on the divine mirror, pushing it down and caused Shang Qing to take a few steps back to unload the impact force but was unharmed. While his two followers were not that fortunate as him, they were struck by the godly rays and blasted into two clouds of blood mist!

The Kui Long Divine Drum then flew flew revolving back to Zhong Yue and entered the Yuan Shen secret realms behind him. Zhong Yue raised his head and looked at Shang Qing, he then said in his usual calm tone, “Brother Shang Qing, I just said they are dead men. So how can I go back on my words? Now, I’ve killed them right in front of you, because I want to let you know something you would be wise to remember — that I am a man of my word.”
