The Villain Has Something to Say

Chapter 201. Slaughter the Residents in the Yun State! (ii)

When the Supreme Master of the Mo’s Family told him about the real Mo Qiu, Luo Jianqing’s face turned pale. He chewed his lower lip hard as if it were going to bleed.

How could the Mo’s Family not recognize their own bloodline? As long as Mo Qiu went back to the family, he would immediately receive the bloodline test, which could testify himself.

According to the real Mo Qiu, he set off to the Northern Waste Land at the late stage of Gold Core, but he was poverty-stricken, so he decided to go to his relatives for help in the Qin State. However, when he reached the Yun State, the real Mo Qiu was trapped in a vast densely-fogged forest.

The forest, more like a horrible ward, was so expansive that the real Mo Qiu was stuck in it for a decade.

When he finally got out, twelve years had passed since he left the family. He was extremely impoverished, so he hunted demons to make money all the way to the Qin State, during which he had also met his bond once or twice. With the instruments he obtained in that forest, he ultimately reached Nascent Soul and got to the Qin State.

Seeing the real Mo Qiu, Luo Jianqing held back all the questions he had wanted to ask.

The real Mo Qiu was brilliant indeed, but also intimidated. He was some kind of compliant to anyone.

But that was understandable for a man who grew up in the Northern Waste Land, where he could only live the life of a savage and poverty. When he was brought to a broader world, he had every reason to be cautious, timid and less agile.

Luo Jianqing had never doubted his best friend.

However, even if the fact was standing right in front of him, Luo Jianqing still couldn’t blame Mo Qiu on lying to him.

For him, Luo Jianqing only had endless sorrow and guilt. He had no position to blame Mo Qiu.

Having known the whole story, Luo Jianqing decided to make amends for the Mo’s Family. After all, this mistake made them lose face and misled them for so many years. That was actually not necessary, but somehow Luo Jianqing just wanted to do something for Mo Qiu, like...explaining what happened to the ones who cared about Mo Qiu.

After the misunderstanding with the Mo’s Family were solved, Luo Jianqing could finally talk with the cultivators of the Fiend Palace.

The reaction of Qin Guihe and Qi Luo were so obvious, and the Mo’s Family might have figured out that the fake Mo Qiu must have some kind of relationship with the Fiend Palace, or put it more clearly, he might well be a Fiend Cultivator. But the Mo’s Family didn’t ask, and the amends offered by Luo Jianqing were some sort of “hush money”.

Mo Qiu had died, so what he had done during his lifetime had become the past. Even if he was a Fiend Cultivator, Luo Jianqing wouldn’t see it as a shame. And he would show no leniency towards anyone who caught out on it and tried to stigmatize Mo Qiu.

He approached the cultivators of the Fiend Palace and looked down to the ground, “I failed to save him.”

These short five words made Qin Guihe’s eyes red. He stepped forward and asked, “Is he really...”

“Yes.” Luo Jianqing gave his brief but clear answer.

On the verge of tears, Qin Guihe closed his eyes and took a deep breath, holding back his choking voice. Then, Luo Jianqing began to communicate with Qi Luo.

Qi Luo calmly asked about the details of those critical moments. During this process, Qin Guihe had raised his sword and clamored to kill Jin Li furiously, but Qi Luo stopped him. After the inquiry, Qi Luo looked at Luo Jianqing and asked in a poised voice, “You feel sorry for him?”

Luo Jianqing fell into silence.

Qi Luo gazed at him for a long time and said, “You don’t have to. This is his own choice, and also his own will.”

Qin Guihe shouted aside, “It’s OK if he only sacrifices one life, but it’s about three million times of reincarnation...”

“Shut up!” Qi Luo yelled.

Qin Guihe immediately stopped talking. He slowly looked away with his shoulders trembling. Luo Jianqing couldn’t hear his voice, but he could see Qin Guihe’s trembling shoulders. At last, Qin Guihe turned around and strode away. He didn’t want other people to find him crying.

Qi Luo made her obeisance to Luo Jianqing and then also left.

Luo Jianqing asked with a loud, hoarse voice, “Who is he!”

Qi Luo stopped and turned to Luo Jianqing, asking with a strange look, “You really don’t know?”

Luo Jianqing was baffled.

Qi Luo carefully examined Luo Jianqing, whose beautiful face was full of upset. She gave a light sigh and said softly, “Then you don’t have to know anymore. It’s better for you.”

After that, She turned out and left with a tint of steely determination.

Luo Jianqing stood there for a long time and finally dragged away by Yu Qingzi and other cultivators.

Yu Qingzi didn’t ask him anything about Mo Qiu all the way. Whether or not Mo Qiu was a liar or Fiend Cultivator didn’t matter at all. He had died, and that couldn’t not be changed.

The death and identification of Mo Qiu were a huge blow to Luo Jianqing. However, he couldn’t be indulged in it. Soon, he entered the Northern Land of Arctic with Sir Yu Qingzi. Their primary mission was to find Sir Huo Mingzi, and the second mission was trying to contact Xuan Lingzi who was trapped in the Ku Mountain.

Luo Jianqing felt much more relieved with Sir Yu Qingzi, who had always cared for and loved him. Currently, despite the intense situation, Yu Qingzi still protected Luo Jianqing single-handedly. Luo Jianqing had witnessed the collapse of the Ku Mountain, so without the protection of Sir Yu Qingzi, he might well have been besieged and constantly pursued by other clans or sects, which would remind his of that horrible disaster for tens of thousands of times.

When they entered the Northern Land of Arctic, Yu Qingzi sighed with emotion, “Even I may not have the determination as firm as Xuan Lingzi.”

Luo Jianqing asked with confusion, “Determination?”

Yu Qingzi smiled and nodded, “Exactly, determination. At the critical moment, Xuan Lingzi could smack you away, so he must deeply care about you. Jianqing, don’t be worried. He is a powerful man who had left his footprints on three of the four dangerous places on the Xuan Tian Continent, and he had been to the Northern Land of Arctic before, so he wouldn’t get pinched this time.”

Luo Jianqing didn’t respond.

Sir Yu Qingzi continued, “Anyway, the most important message you bring back is not the collapse of the Ku Mountain, but the ambition of demons. You are still very young, not aware of the true power of that Jin Li. That man is much more powerful than Guang Lingzi. No, maybe even Sir Hao Xingzi could be beaten by him.”

Luo Jianqing was suddenly baffled.

In the Tai Hua Mountain, Xuan Lingzi was certainly the top of the top, followed by Sir Hao Xingzi and Guang Lingzi. The former had cultivated for over two thousand years, mastering the unmatched skill of the Cang Shuang Peak, Qing Yun Sword. The latter, on the other hand, was extraordinarily brilliant, who had eliminated two Earth-Level demon exalts equivalent to the middle stage of Da Sheng Period.

Besides the fallen Lady Feng Si, among all the ten cultivators who had finished the late stage of Da Sheng Period, Hao Xingzi could rank top five, and Guang Lingzi could rank top seven.

Was Jin Li really so powerful?

Yu Qingzi said, “Jin Li is the last dragon in the world. As the only mythical creature, he has been blessed with natural gift and great talent. It took him only six thousand years to reach the Earth Level, and very close to the Heaven Level. Over a thousand years ago, your Supreme Master and the Fiend Exalt set a trap and took away his demon pill. Since then, his power had waned dramatically. It’s said that even his mentality and appearance were affected. Now he may be not as powerful as Yin Ji, one of the Four Grand Demon Exalts.

Luo Jianqing felt shocked, “I don’t know he is such a powerful man.”

Yu Qingzi said with profound resignation, “So, it was quite incredible for you to escape from him. I’m literally surprised. But Jianqing, you are lucky enough. If Jin Li’s mind were not disordered, you wouldn’t have had the chance to survive.”

Luo Jianqing fell into silence. He didn’t want talk about it anymore.
