Chapter 497 - 280: Forgot!
When Prince Xue spoke these words, there was a pitiful expression on her face.
She was exceedingly beautiful, and when she adopted such a demeanor, it would make any man feel compassionate.
But Chu Qing’s face showed no fluctuation.
He casually tossed aside Luo Wushuang’s head and said softly:
"You dare to appear before me again, relying on the nearly immortal and eternal trait of the Blood Demon Scripture.
"As long as blood and energy are not exhausted, life persists.
"You think I can’t kill you..."
"How could I entertain such thoughts when my good brother’s martial arts are world-renowned?"
Prince Xue rubbed her arm, which had just been reattached, and spoke softly:
"However, your sister has one thing to say to advise you.
"Though you possess unmatched martial arts, the deep roots of the Celestial Evil Cult are far beyond your imagination.
"Your sister is merely the most ordinary among the Twelve Saint Kings in the Celestial Evil Cult... But, brother, do you know, while the Twelve Saint Kings hold esteemed positions, they are not the master fighters in our cult.
"The Seven Secrets, Three Treasures, and Six Mystic Sects are only practiced for self-preservation.
"Therefore, sister advises you to stop your reckless actions before it’s too late, or else, if you truly provoke our cult’s wrath,
"I’m afraid your life and death will no longer be in your hands."
"Then I do want to know, who exactly are the master fighters you speak of?"
Chu Qing softly opened his mouth:
"The Celestial Evil Sect Leader?"
"The Sect Leader’s martial arts have long transcended the mundane; even the Three Emperors and Five Sovereigns cannot compare.
"But, brother, with your current skills, it’s not worth the Sect Leader personally dealing with you..."
Prince Xue smiled and said:
"Though, brother, you’re a bit too eager to probe my words.
"Today’s weather is quite nice, and the evening scenery should be unique; how about we meet after dusk and have a prolonged conversation? Whatever you wish to know, your sister will tell you, how about that?"
"Prince Xue’s schemes are numerous; I trust not a single word you say."
Although Chu Qing said he didn’t believe, there’s something strange in his heart.
The Celestial Evil Sect Leader is too mysterious; although the Twelve Saint Kings and he have had some contact, there’s no real understanding of this enigmatic leader.
But to claim that the Celestial Evil Sect Leader’s martial arts surpass even the Three Emperors and Five Sovereigns.
Chu Qing doesn’t believe...
If this person’s martial arts were truly that advanced, why engage in such deceitful acts?
Acting with dignity and reigning over the world, who could withstand?
"I wished to offer my heart to the bright moon... but alas, the bright moon illuminates the ditch."
Prince Xue sighed lightly:
"Sister always thinks of brother, yet brother does not appreciate it.
"I’ve thought it through; if brother desires, simply hand over that item, and I’ll plead with the Sect Leader to allow you into the cult. When the major task is achieved, you’ll have the chance to be beneath one but above thousands.
"Why insist on heading towards that dead end?"
"My future, whether life or death, doesn’t concern you.
"But today, you must die here."
Just as these words were spoken, a series of explosions erupted three zhangs away from the two, forming a circle, enclosing them together.
Though the two were engaged in conversation, their energies constantly clashed.
Until now, Prince Xue groaned, conceding defeat.
Looking again at Chu Qing’s gaze, disbelief deepened.
Previously she felt, in this short absence, Chu Qing’s martial arts once again made tremendous progress.
However, not as direct as this moment.
From that fortress, they fought and scrambled over a hundred miles, with energy clashes not being infrequent, and they were evenly matched. But now, within such a short time, she was already defeated?
Indeed, if this person cannot join the Celestial Evil Cult, then by any means necessary, he must be killed.
Prince Xue understands clearly that Chu Qing’s energy has now fully enveloped her, the next inevitable strike will be earth-shattering.
She can then use this opportunity to escape and flee thousand miles.
This time she’s made up her mind, not stopping for anything...
In reality, today’s timing wasn’t optimal either.
Prince Xue enters Taiheng Sect to seek the clues of the Nine Treasures.
And also for Chu Qing.
Regardless of Taiheng Sect’s internal changes, Prince Xue doesn’t care.
The core reason she came today was dissatisfaction.
Her doings for her, Enlightenment and Xingzhi, were all dead.
Especially Xingzhi... No one knows better than her what Xingzhi was going to do that day.
And to find Xingzhi in such circumstances and kill him, it’s only possible to be Chu Qing.
This is essentially a game, a game Prince Xue wishes to play with Chu Qing.
But undoubtedly, Prince Xue ruined it.
The dissatisfaction suddenly peaked.
That’s why she came today; her purpose was to commit mass murder among the crowd, using Jianghu People’s life to see if it could coerce Chu Qing into handing over that item.
Otherwise, at least speak this matter out, so Chu Qing becomes a public enemy.
But after recognizing Luo Wushuang as the disciple of Martial Emperor Li Juechen, she conceived the idea of sneaking an attack on Chu Qing while he engaged with Luo Wushuang.
Unexpectedly, not only did it fail, but she nearly got herself trapped.
Now realizing she’s no match for Chu Qing, all other thoughts are abandoned, and with a ruthless determination, she only thinks of fleeing thousand miles away, hoping for the next confrontation with Chu Qing.
Chu Qing’s voice also resounds at this moment:
"Blood Demon Scripture is based on blood and energy, as long as blood and energy remain, life does not cease.
