#23 - OK, I got it.

Just after leaving Qin Buyi's home, Xiuwen, with his neck stiff, questioned Lan Tianhe, "Uncle Lan, why didn't you let me continue speaking?"

"Idiot!" Lan Tianhe cursed inwardly, but a gentle smile appeared on his face as he said, "Xiuwen, that person is not easy to provoke. If a real fight breaks out, the outcome is hard to predict."

Xiuwen curled his lip, unimpressed, and said, "Uncle Lan, you are at the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul Realm, about to break through to the Deity Transformation Realm. Is that person stronger than you?"

"Alas!" Lan Tianhe sighed and said, "Xiuwen, this kind of person is very dangerous. Avoid provoking them if possible."

That's what he said, but what he was thinking was, "More than just stronger than me, when he looked at me, a bloody aura rushed towards me, like being stared at by a wild beast that devours anyone it sees."

"If we really fought, I would definitely be the one to die."

After hearing Lan Tianhe's words, Xiuwen thought disdainfully in his heart, "Dangerous? Humph, isn't it just because you old thing are afraid."

Thinking of the egg on the pile of spirit stones in Qin Buyi's room, Xiuwen's greed was like a hundred claws scratching his heart. He said to Lan Tianhe:

"Uncle Lan, did you see the egg in that person's room? A pet hatched with millions of spirit stones must be top-grade."

Lan Tianhe had just suppressed the greed in his heart, and when he heard Xiuwen mention it again, he said enviously, "If I could hatch such an egg as a pet, I would laugh in my sleep."

Recalling how Qin Buyi had grabbed his neck, Xiuwen said viciously, "I will call my father later and have him send someone to kill that person, torture him to death, and then scatter his ashes."

"Humph, whether it's family background or future prospects, that person can't compare to me. Why can he have such a top-grade pet?"

"Don't talk nonsense!" Lan Tianhe was frightened by Xiuwen's reckless words and stopped him in a cold sweat.

"I'll tell you why," Qin Buyi's icy voice came from in front of them.

"Clang!"

He drew out the Killing Life Blade and walked towards them step by step through the air.

After letting the two of them leave, Qin Buyi had been paying attention to them. If they had left peacefully, it would have been fine, but they just had to recklessly say they wanted to kill him.

Regarding potential dangers, Qin Buyi preferred to nip them in the bud.

When Lan Tianhe saw Qin Buyi appear, he wasn't surprised. On the contrary, it would have been surprising if Qin Buyi hadn't appeared.

"Idiot! It's already a rare thing that this kind of person would let you leave. You actually recklessly said you wanted to kill him."

"This distance, speaking without any concealment, with his cultivation, it's like speaking in his ear. Do you really think his cultivation is just for show?" Lan Tianhe cursed inwardly.

Lan Tianhe was completely helpless with Xiuwen, this idiot. A pig teammate was nothing more than this.

Looking at Qin Buyi, who was getting closer and closer with a murderous aura, Xiuwen panicked and quickly looked at Lan Tianhe.

Lan Tianhe protected Xiuwen behind him and smoothed things over, saying, "The child is young and frivolous, ignorant. Young Master, don't take it to heart."

Seeing Lan Tianhe standing up for him, Xiuwen felt as if he had taken a reassurance pill. Hiding behind Lan Tianhe, he said sternly:

"Do you know who my father is? If I get even a scratch, you definitely won't live to see tomorrow morning. If you know what's good for you, get out of the way."

After a pause, Xiuwen added, "If you offer that egg with both hands and cripple your own cultivation, I will spare your life and not pursue your offense of scaring this young master."

Qin Buyi said with interest, "Offering that egg with both hands and crippling my cultivation might not be enough. How about letting you kill me?"

Before Xiuwen could reply, Qin Buyi attacked the two of them with the Killing Life Blade in his hand.

"Killing Life · Annihilation!"

The crescent moon enveloped the two of them.

Lan Tianhe took out his weapon, a long spear, to resist most of the attacks.

"Clang!" "Clang!"

"Clang!..."

The crescent moon dissipated. With Lan Tianhe's full protection, Xiuwen was not harmed in any way.

"Puff!"

Lan Tianhe's face instantly turned pale, devoid of any blood, and he spat out a large mouthful of blood.

After returning from Falling Star Mountain Range, Qin Buyi hadn't had time to break through his cultivation, but with the amplification of the Heaven Desolate Body, his overall stats had already entered the Deity Transformation Realm.

Even Lan Tianhe, who was at the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul Realm, suffered extremely serious internal injuries after forcibly withstanding Qin Buyi's attack.

Qin Buyi hadn't used his full strength in that attack. He wanted to test the level of cultivators on Blue Star. Now it seemed that there was still a certain gap compared to that other world in Falling Star Mountain Range.

Seeing Qin Buyi about to launch another attack, Lan Tianhe took a deep look at Qin Buyi and said, "Does Young Master really want to kill him?"

Qin Buyi didn't expect Lan Tianhe to ask this. He didn't speak, but the gradually raised Killing Life Blade showed Qin Buyi's attitude.

Turning his head to look at Xiuwen, Lan Tianhe sighed and didn't say anything. With a flash, he stood outside Qin Buyi's attack range and said, "Everything is his own fault. Young Master, please do as you wish."

After this series of actions, Xiuwen, who had been hiding behind Lan Tianhe, was completely stunned, looking at Qin Buyi, who was gradually approaching like the Grim Reaper.

Xiuwen shouted in a terrified voice, "Uncle Lan, save me! You can't ignore me! You and my father are good friends! You can't just watch me die!"

Lan Tianhe kept his eyes on his nose and his nose on his heart, pretending not to hear anything. Hearing Xiuwen's words, he couldn't help but think:

"Good friends? Bullshit good friends. You brainless idiot, now you know to be afraid? Don't you think it's too late? It's not worth it for me to risk my life for you, you idiot."

When he fought with Qin Buyi, those powers that exceeded the Nascent Soul Realm were truly unforgettable for him.

Looking at the indifferent Lan Tianhe, Xiuwen was completely desperate. With a handful of snot and tears, he begged Qin Buyi:

"Don't... don't kill me! My father is the president of the Cultivator Association! I can give you a lot of money, beauties, status, anything you want!"

"Okay, I understand," Qin Buyi said softly.

"Killing Life · Massacre!"

Lan Tianhe simply closed his eyes, and even chose a cemetery for Xiuwen in his mind.

"You dare to kill me! My father won't let..." Xiuwen hadn't finished speaking.

"Chī!"

His head fell to the ground. Xiuwen's headless corpse fell from the sky. Lan Tianhe quickly caught the corpse and head, and said in a negotiating tone:

"Young Master, I have to take his body away, otherwise it will be even harder for me to explain to his father."

Qin Buyi waved his hand without speaking and turned to fly towards his home.

Seeing that Qin Buyi had no objection to him taking Xiuwen's body, Lan Tianhe shouted loudly to Qin Buyi who was leaving:

"Young Master, you've caused trouble! Leave S City quickly! The revenge from the Cultivator Association might cost you your life!"

"Thanks for the reminder," Qin Buyi's voice came from below.

Lan Tianhe stood there for a long time. Seeing that Qin Buyi didn't seem to have any intention of leaving, he smiled bitterly for a long time and said, "Truly, a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers."

Looking at Xiuwen's corpse in front of him, the corners of his mouth were even more bitter, and his tone was full of helplessness:

"This is a big trouble. If Wu Laogui knows that his youngest son died in S City, he will turn S City upside down. What a headache."

After returning to the S City branch of the Cultivator Association, Lan Tianhe reported the matter as soon as possible.

Kyoto Cultivator Association Headquarters.

"Bang!" A loud noise.

A mahogany table instantly shattered into countless pieces and exploded around. Everyone in the conference room was silent and dared not speak.

"Investigate for me! I want to know all his information!"

"Within three days, I want to see the head of the murderer who killed my son!"

An old man wearing a Taoist robe, who was quite immortal-like, was now roaring like an enraged lion.

This person was Wu Hou, Wu Xiuwen's father, a Void Refinement Realm expert.

"Yes!" The subordinate replied.

In less than the time it takes to brew a cup of tea, a file marked "Top Secret" appeared before Wu Hou's eyes.

"Top Secret?" Wu Hou was a little surprised.

Opening the file:

Name: Qin Buyi.

Level: Top Secret.

......

The file recorded in detail Qin Buyi's family background and everything he had done from childhood to adulthood.

"Entered China's highest institution at the age of eighteen, dropped out in his third year, studied human anatomy, poisons, and firearms."

"Became the most dangerous killer in Southeast Asia in just two years, nicknamed: Night Yama."...

After finishing the file, Wu Hou murmured, "I didn't expect him to be connected to that incident back then..."

"And just three months ago, he was just an ordinary person without any cultivation. In just three months, he actually broke through to the Nascent Soul Realm."

Thinking of this, Wu Hou's eyes lit up, and the greed that appeared in his heart could no longer be erased.

"Fortuitous encounter, earth-shattering fortuitous encounter. A fortuitous encounter that can allow an ordinary person to break through to the Nascent Soul Realm in just three months. If I get it, then..."

Thinking of this, Wu Hou's breathing gradually became rapid. After a while, he instructed, "Pass it down. Let Wu Zai go to S City, capture the brat who killed Xiuwen alive, and bring him back."

"Yes!" Wu Kui, who was deeply trusted by Wu Hou and was responsible for helping Wu Hou handle daily affairs, replied.

"My son died in S City. Lan Tianhe is to blame. Tell Wu Zai, if possible, bring back Lan Tianhe's head as well," Wu Hou said with a hateful tone.

"President, you can't!" Wu Kui said.

"Hmm?" Wu Hou squinted his eyes and looked at Wu Kui.

Wu Kui broke out in a cold sweat and said stubbornly, "If Lan Tianhe dies, the Lan family will definitely start a war with my Wu family. It's not worth the loss."

After pondering for a while, Wu Hou said to Wu Kui, "Then do as you said. Let's spare Lan Tianhe's dog life for now."

"Three days is too long. Let Wu Zai set off immediately to S City. I want to see that brat appear before me before sunrise tomorrow."
