172: Kill the Emperor Wu and collect all five Qilin jade pendants
“You’re spewing nonsense!”
Upon hearing this, the Martial Emperor’s face immediately flushed red as he angrily retorted, “You were the one who approached me, claiming you had a way to help me subdue Yu Da Ren. After I agreed, I promised you a batch of Venerable-tier spiritual materials to help you Break through to the Martial Emperor realm. Now you’re slandering me!”
At this point, the Martial Emperor looked at Yu Xiu, raised three fingers, and declared loudly, “Yu Da Ren, this humble one swears to the heavens that everything I just said is true. If there is even a hint of falsehood, I am willing to have my strength regress, be plagued by bad luck, and have my descendants suffer a miserable end!”
As soon as these words were spoken,
Everyone present gasped.
Such an oath was indeed vicious.
Ever since the Martial Dao era began, humans had become increasingly cautious about making oaths.
Even Vicious Beasts could speak, so who knew if there were true immortals in the heavens above.
Now, a Martial Emperor dared to make such a venomous oath, which showed some guts.
“I, I…”
The old man from the Administration Bureau never expected that the Martial Emperor, to save his life, would use such a method to prove his innocence.
For a moment, he opened his mouth, wanting to make an oath, but he dared not speak.
“Yu Xiu, I am a person in charge of the Administration Bureau. If you dare to kill me, the higher-ups will definitely not let you off. This is a provocation to the Cabinet, a provocation to Huaxia’s highest authority. Once you dare to do this, you will forever be a traitor to the entire nation!”
Seeing his situation was critical, the old man from the Administration Bureau could only bring up the Cabinet to threaten him.
“A traitor to the Huaxia nation?”
Yu Xiu snorted coldly, “If killing a worm that harms the Huaxia people means becoming a traitor to the nation, then I must consider whether this nation is still a nation.”
At this point, Yu Xiu immediately mobilized the Source of Qi within his body, transforming it into a sharp sword. With a wave of his hand, a purple blade instantly flew out.
In the blink of an eye,
A bloodline appeared on the neck of the old man from the Administration Bureau. Sensing his life draining away, the old man’s face showed an expression of disbelief and terror. “Help, help…”
He desperately opened his mouth, trying to call for help, but blood continuously gushed out, preventing him from uttering a complete sentence.
“You go too!”
Yu Xiu turned to look at the other three. The purple blade struck again, and the same scene reappeared; the three died on the spot.
“Yu Da Ren, spare my life!”
At this moment, the Martial Emperor was already terrified, his face pale, kowtowing incessantly.
“Hand over the kirin jade pendant!”
Yu Xiu’s voice was very soft, but it was like an imperial decree. The Martial Emperor hastily took out his Storage Ring, unlinked his identity, and offered it to Yu Xiu with both hands.
“Yu Da Ren, the kirin jade pendant is in the Storage Ring. All other items are offerings from this humble one to you.”
Yu Xiu looked up, activated his Mind Power Master ability, and the Storage Ring flew into his hand out of thin air.
He then bound his identity and took out a blue kirin jade pendant from the Storage Ring.
“Only one?”
When Yu Xiu put the blue kirin jade pendant into his Storage Ring, something very strange suddenly happened.
The three kirin jade pendants suddenly pieced together and emitted a three-colored light.
Purple, Ink, and blue.
As Yu Xiu wondered, he noticed that a young man from a Secret Realm City not far away also emitted a faint white halo. Although it was very faint, Yu Xiu could keenly perceive it.
At the same time, a red halo appeared on another person on the other side.
Yu Xiu guessed that this was likely the induction between the kirin jade pendants, which would only happen when the three kirin jade pendants were pieced together.
“This humble one only has one. As for the others, this humble one does not know.”
The Martial Emperor looked at the young people behind him but ultimately shook his head.
After all, those young people also had their own Families behind them. Although the Martial Emperor knew that they must have kirin jade pendants, he did not want to offend them completely.
Once offended, it would be many Families united, and his Family could not afford to offend them.
However, he wasn't exactly lying.
He indeed didn't know who had them; he only knew that these people had them.
“You, hand over the kirin jade pendant.”
Yu Xiu looked at the young man with the white halo, his tone cold, and commanded.
“I don’t have a kirin jade pendant.”
“I don’t want to say it a second time.”
Yu Xiu guessed that the white kirin jade pendant was in the other party’s Storage Ring. Although he could snatch it, he wouldn’t be able to open the Storage Ring after snatching it.
This was not like the Storage Rings in those Xuanhuan novels, where erasing the Soul imprint would suffice.
This was a software issue.
If forced open, it would self-destruct.
“I really don’t…”
Before the young man could finish his sentence, Yu Xiu suddenly looked up, activated his Mind Power Master ability, and pinched the young man’s neck from a distance, lifting him into the air.
“Think carefully before speaking.”
“If you don’t hand over the white kirin jade pendant in three seconds, you will die.”
When the young man heard Yu Xiu mention the white kirin jade pendant, his face instantly changed dramatically, and he turned to look at another young man in the crowd.
You betrayed me!
The meaning in the young man’s eyes was self-evident.
And that young man also looked puzzled.
But he didn’t dare to ask.
Because Yu Xiu was present.
“I’ll hand it over!”
The young man guessed he had been betrayed. Rather than losing his life, it was better to hand it over decisively.
“Why bother!”
When the young man struggled and took out the white kirin jade pendant from his Storage Ring, Yu Xiu snorted coldly and threw the other party away.
The white kirin jade pendant, however, flew rapidly toward him.
Everyone present,
Seeing the white kirin jade pendant floating overhead, their eyes burned with desire, but no one dared to snatch it.
It had now been confirmed that Yu Xiu’s strength surpassed the Martial Emperor realm.
Slaughtering Martial Emperors was like slaughtering dogs.
Moreover, his methods were mysterious and unfathomable.
No one dared to provoke him.
“Indeed.”
When the white kirin jade pendant was placed into the Storage Ring and pieced together with the other three kirin jade pendants again, Yu Xiu already had a guess in his heart.
At this moment,
His gaze once again fell on another person, “And you, hand it over too!”
“The red kirin jade pendant.”
As Yu Xiu spoke the color of the jade pendant, that person immediately deflated and dared not resist in the slightest, obediently taking it out.
He had witnessed the fate of the previous young man, who nearly lost his life but ultimately handed over the kirin jade pendant.
Rather than that, it was better to suffer less physical pain and hand it over obediently.
As the red kirin jade pendant was placed into the Storage Ring, it automatically pieced together again.
Yu Xiu now possessed five kirin jade pendants.
The purple kirin jade pendant given by Old Master Chu, his own ink kirin jade pendant, and the blue kirin jade pendant given by the Martial Emperor.
Then there were the two snatched kirin jade pendants, the white and the red.
Now there were still four kirin jade pendants outside. After Yu Xiu learned of the effect of the pieced-together kirin jade pendants,
His gaze swept around.
However, at a glance, no other traces of kirin jade pendants appeared.
Despite this, Yu Xiu was not disappointed. He believed that those who possessed kirin jade pendants would definitely enter the Qilin Relic.
Otherwise, when the Qilin Relic closed again, the kirin jade pendant would also disappear. Losing an Opportunity for nothing, he believed no one would be so foolish.
“Spare me…”
At this moment, Yu Xiu turned to look at the Martial Emperor. The other party also sensed the purple streak approaching. In his terror, as soon as he cried out, his head flew off.
After doing all this, Yu Xiu turned and walked toward the Huaxia University camp.
There was still some time until the moon rose, so he could only wait patiently.
