#92 - The crying Qing Qian, the snorting Hong Lian
Hearing the soft voice, Qin Buyi wasn't too surprised, thinking, "As expected, she's not dead."
Qingqian, wielding her scarlet long sword, attacked Qin Buyi from behind.
The expression on her face was extremely complex, filled with anger, fear, lingering dread, and shock...
Just now, what had she witnessed!
The entire Falling Star Mountain Range had vanished before her eyes—vanished, not destroyed.
It disappeared without a trace, as if someone had forcibly erased it from this world.
If she hadn't used a secret technique of the Nine-Tailed Clan that came at a great cost, she would have been erased along with the Falling Star Mountain Range.
Qingqian suddenly felt that seeking revenge on Qin Buyi was a mistake, considering his utterly ruthless actions.
Qin Buyi turned to look at Qingqian, pretending to use the Annihilation Blade Technique, and shouted:
"Slaughter·Annihilation!"
"Whoosh!"
Qingqian, like a frightened bird, didn't bother attacking and quickly fled into the distance.
After a few breaths, Qingqian didn't feel any attack waves behind her. She stopped and turned around.
She saw Qin Buyi looking at her with a teasing expression.
Qingqian was both angry and furious, and she softly shouted, "Qin Buyi, you are shameless!"
Qin Buyi: "Slaughter·Soul Scattering!"
Qingqian stood still, without dodging or avoiding, saying, "To borrow a phrase you once said, the same trick won't work on me!"
The Slaughter Blade, which was tens of feet long, quickly shrank to the size of a palm.
Qin Buyi's divine sense and the death aura of the Nether Domain surged into the Slaughter Blade.
The Slaughter Blade, half golden and half dark, shot towards Qingqian.
In the blink of an eye, it arrived before Qingqian, and she didn't have time to react.
The Slaughter Blade pierced into Qingqian's sea of consciousness. Qingqian froze for a moment and cursed, "Damn it! You're serious!"
Qin Buyi pointed to the ruins of the now-vanished Falling Star Mountain Range and said, "I wasn't playing with you from the beginning. I really want to kill you."
Qingqian was speechless for a long time. She suddenly felt that what Qin Buyi said made a lot of sense.
Without any hesitation, Qingqian quickly controlled her scarlet long sword to defend.
"Heaven Desolate Sword Art·Divine Defense!"
A tremendous force came from within Qingqian's sea of consciousness, firmly holding the Slaughter Blade in place.
Facing the same move, the Slaughter Blade this time was blessed with the death aura of the Nether Domain.
The blade struggled to pierce forward.
Seeing that the Slaughter Blade was about to break through her defense, Qingqian felt a little panicked.
She only had Divine Defense to resist the divine sense attack of the Slaughter Blade.
Other methods had virtually no effect against divine sense attacks.
"Clang!"
The Slaughter Blade let out a blade cry, struggling to pierce through the defense of Qingqian's sea of consciousness.
"Pfft!"
The Slaughter Blade, freed from its restraints, was like a wild horse that had been let loose.
It continuously attacked within Qingqian's sea of consciousness...
"Boom!" "Boom!"
"Boom!"...
Qingqian's ears felt like cannons were being fired, with continuous booming sounds.
Qingqian's sea of consciousness quickly became like a spider web, riddled with holes.
Qingqian gritted her teeth, not caring about anything else. The sea of consciousness was one of the most important things for a cultivator.
Once broken, it would have a huge impact on the cultivator.
"Nine-Tailed Secret Technique·Tail Severance!"
A phantom of a nine-tailed white fox rose behind Qingqian.
The difference was that this nine-tailed white fox only had eight tails.
"Crack!"
A soft sound came, and the nine-tailed white fox lost another tail from its eight tails.
Qingqian appeared very far away from Qin Buyi, like a golden cicada shedding its shell.
A fluffy white tail and a palm-sized Slaughter Blade were left in Qingqian's original position.
Qin Buyi reached out and recalled the Slaughter Blade, which returned to its original size of tens of feet in his hand.
Looking at the fluffy white tail, Qin Buyi said, "So this is the method you used to escape just now."
Qingqian ignored Qin Buyi, glaring at him angrily.
Seeing that Qingqian was ignoring him, Qin Buyi stopped talking and was about to launch another attack on Qingqian with the Slaughter Blade.
Suddenly, Qingqian squatted down on the spot, hugging her knees with both hands, burying her head in her knees, and said with a cry in her voice, "Qin Buyi, you little thief, you almost killed me just now, you know!"
Qin Buyi stopped his attack, looking at Qingqian with a puzzled expression, and tentatively asked, "What act are you putting on now?"
Qingqian: "Qin Buyi, what ability do you have besides bullying women! Can't your emotional intelligence be a little higher? Did cultivation make you stupid?"
Qin Buyi said blankly, "You were the one who said you wanted to kill me first. Of course, I have to kill you. I can't let you really kill me, right?"
"I was just saying that to scare you and make you return my things to me. Who would have thought you would be so strong in combat! And so terrifying."
The more Qingqian spoke, the more aggrieved she felt, her eyes were red, and tears streamed down her face.
Pointing to the ruins of the vanished Falling Star Mountain Range below, she gestured, "Such a large Falling Star Mountain Range, you destroyed it with one slash."
"My Nine-Tailed Fox Clan only grows one tail every thousand years, and two of them were used as substitutes for death under your two guaranteed-kill attacks."
"If it weren't for the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan's talent, I would have died in your hands twice already. Are you even human!!!"
Seeing Qingqian crying pitifully, Qin Buyi stood there, not knowing what to say. Both sides fell into silence.
Looking at the dignified Fox Demon Empress of the Falling Star Mountain Range, whose cultivation had reached the Tribulation Transcendence Realm, in this state in front of him.
Qin Buyi felt that if this scene were seen by others, no one would believe it if it spread.
Qin Buyi racked his brains trying to figure out how to make Qingqian stop crying, but he couldn't come up with any good ideas, so he could only stammer, "Hey! Qingqian, are you still fighting!"
Hearing Qin Buyi say this, Qingqian cried even more severely, saying, "Fight, fight your big head! Is your mind filled with fighting all day long?"
Hearing Qingqian say she wasn't fighting, Qin Buyi stopped using the Law Manifestation of Heaven and Earth. His figure quickly returned to its normal state, and the Slaughter Blade also returned to its normal state at the same time.
"Then what do you want to do?" Qin Buyi asked.
Qingqian didn't speak, crying alone in the distance like a bullied weak woman.
Qin Buyi tentatively said, "How about I return your things to you, and you stop crying."
As soon as he finished speaking, Qingqian stood up with tears on her face.
Qin Buyi thought Qingqian had agreed, but before he could speak, Qingqian flew away into the distance at an extremely fast speed.
Her voice remained in Qin Buyi's ears: "I will retrieve my things myself. You keep them safe for me first. I will really kill you next time we meet. Be prepared."
"Finally, Qin Buyi, remember, you killed me twice. You owe me two lives!"
After hearing Qingqian's words, Qin Buyi felt a little inexplicable. He stood there, watching Qingqian disappear from his sight, and said in confusion:
"Inexplicable. This time, you took the initiative to find me and said you wanted to kill me, and then you said you didn't really want to kill me."
"She just left like that, and even said there would be a next time."
Qin Buyi raised the Slaughter Blade in his hand and said to the Slaughter Blade, "Red Lotus, do you think this woman is inexplicable?"
The Slaughter Blade vibrated slightly, and Red Lotus's cold snort rang in Qin Buyi's ears.
Listening to Red Lotus's cold snort, Qin Buyi felt that Red Lotus's mood didn't seem very good.
Like a monk scratching his head, Qin Buyi murmured, "What's going on today?"
