Chapter 596: Unexpected

Chapter 596: Chapter 596: Unexpected

Qin Bancheng was struggling internally. The promise Tang Yue’er made on behalf of Qin Chuan to meet any two conditions was very tempting to him.

However, he also deeply feared the mysterious powerful enemy, who, after all, was a genuine mid-stage Sovereign Realm powerhouse and was very likely to come from the Imperial Family or sects.

Thinking of this, he finally made up his mind, looked at Tang Yue’er, and said, "Miss Tang, I apologize, but my cultivation is too low, and I am not qualified to intervene in battles between Sovereign Realm powerhouses."

After speaking, he went and stood to the side, choosing not to help either party.

Tang Yue’er’s complexion instantly turned deathly pale. Without Qin Bancheng’s help, who could save Qin Chuan?

Suddenly, with a resolute expression, she declared, "Even if I die today, I will die before you lay a hand on Big Brother Qin!"

As her voice fell, the aura of a mid-stage King Realm Martial Artist burst forth from her.

Even though the opponent was a severely injured Sovereign Realm mid-stage powerhouse, he was not someone she, a mere mid-stage King Realm Martial Artist, could stop.

"Hmm?"

The mysterious strong enemy felt the aura that erupted from Tang Yue’er and was somewhat shocked.

When did the young people of the secular world become so monstrously talented?

What shocked him was that the aura emanating from Tang Yue’er was rapidly climbing, nearing the later stage of the King Realm.

Tang Yue’er’s long hair fluttered, and her stunning face appeared as if veiled with a pallid mask, with pain etched upon her features.

"Celestial Yin Energy!"

The mysterious strong enemy exclaimed in surprise, "You actually possess the Celestial Yin Meridian! Isn’t the Celestial Yin Meridian considered a disabled constitution? How did you cultivate to the King Realm?"

Hearing the mysterious strong enemy’s words, Qin Bancheng was equally startled.

As a powerful Martial Artist from the Ancient Martial World, he had naturally heard of the Celestial Yin Meridian, a constitution deemed as a disabled one.

Now, a young woman bearing such a constitution had actually cultivated to the mid-stage of the King Realm, clearly having found a special cultivation technique suitable for those with the Celestial Yin Meridian.

A cultivation technique that could enable someone considered disabled to cultivate was unquestionably heaven-defying.

"Burn for me!"

Tang Yue’er suddenly shouted, exerting all her strength to activate the Yin Dan within her, a surge of dense Celestial Yin Energy burst forth from her body.

And the aura emanating from her escalated in a straight line, reaching the later stage of the King Realm in an instant, and yet it didn’t stop there; her aura continued to climb, pressing towards the peak of the King Realm.

The mysterious strong enemy thought, "If this woman truly breaks through to the Emperor Realm, I’m afraid I would fall at the hands of a woman from the secular world."

With that thought, his gaze turned icy, and he charged directly towards Tang Yue’er.

Despite his severe injuries, he was after all a mid-stage Sovereign Realm powerhouse, still possessing strength comparable to that of the Initial Emperor Realm.

In almost an instant, he reached Tang Yue’er and slammed a palm down towards her.

"Ah!"

Tang Yue’er let out a roar of anger, fighting back with all her might with a palm.

"Boom!"

The moment their palms collided, it was like a nuclear explosion, with terrifying power sweeping out in all directions.

Tang Yue’er was sent flying backward, spitting out blood, while the mysterious strong enemy was also knocked back a step. Though it was only one step, it further aggravated his already severe injuries.

Qin Bancheng had a serious look on his face. From the clash between Tang Yue’er and the mysterious powerhouse, he had figured out that the mysterious enemy could only match the strength of the Initial Emperor Realm at most now.

If he made a move, the mysterious strong enemy would surely perish!

He suddenly considered whether to kill the mysterious strong enemy. If he did, even if it meant saving Qin Chuan and Tang Yue’er’s lives, given what he knew about Qin Chuan, surely Qin Chuan would remember these life-saving graces, right?

Qin Chuan, after all, is an alchemist capable of concocting top-tier elixirs, and his martial talents are extremely outstanding. As long as he does not die, his place among the pinnacles of the Ancient Martial World will undoubtedly be assured.

If he saves Qin Chuan’s life now, it’s as if he’s making an early investment.

However, the mysterious strong opponent’s background is evidently not small; if he gets killed by him, will the forces behind the mysterious opponent come looking for him?

What he can be certain of is that the forces behind the mysterious strong opponent will definitely seek the truth, and it would be very easy for them to trace it back to Qin Chuan.

What if Qin Chuan seeks revenge out of gratitude, pushing all of the mysterious opponent’s pressure onto him? What should he do then?

By then, he fears that the entire Qin Royal Family would have to accompany the mysterious strong opponent into death alongside him.

He is optimistic about Qin Chuan’s future, so he wants to save Qin Chuan. Yet he fears the forces behind the mysterious strong opponent.

The more he thinks, the more he struggles internally.

At this moment, Tang Yue’er has blood at the corner of her mouth, her complexion is pale to the extreme, and she is almost shivering as she struggles to stand up.

Yet she still hasn’t given up on the idea of stopping the mysterious strong opponent, continuing to crazily stimulate the Yin Dan, with Celestial Yin Energy surging out wildly, and her momentum continually rising. However, upon reaching the King Realm Peak bottleneck, she can no longer advance even half a step.

She knows that only by possessing a cultivation comparable to the Emperor Initial Stage Realm might she be able to stop the mysterious strong opponent.

However, if she wants to have a cultivation comparable to the Emperor Initial Stage Realm, she must completely burn her Yin Dan.

For her at this moment, the Yin Dan is as important as a heart; once the Yin Dan completely vanishes, she too will entirely fall.

She looks over at Qin Chuan, who is sitting cross-legged not far away, her face full of reluctance and pain. She knows how much suffering this man has been through since childhood, finally leaving that hellish nightmare behind for merely a decade of tranquil life. Yet now, he has been targeted by people from the Ancient Martial World.

Suddenly, Tang Yue’er looks towards Qin Chuan and says tenderly, "My life was originally given by you. Today, I will use my life to exchange for your lifelong peace!"

After speaking, her face reveals a devastatingly beautiful smile, yet fresh blood seeps from the corner of her mouth, making the smile terribly poignant.

"Burn! Burn completely!"

Tang Yue’er suddenly opens her arms, allowing the Yin Dan within her body to burn wildly.

"Boom!"

Her momentum soars abruptly, approaching the level of the Emperor Initial Stage Realm.

The mysterious strong opponent’s heart is full of shock, unable to understand how a woman with a crippled body could have cultivated to the King Realm Mid-stage, and now she has even forcibly raised her strength to the brink of the Emperor Initial Stage Realm.

Once Tang Yue’er gains strength comparable to the Emperor Initial Stage Realm, he would be doomed.

Although he can still display strength comparable to the Emperor Initial Stage Realm, isn’t he also just barely hanging on?

"Kill!"

The mysterious strong opponent lets out a loud shout and charges towards Tang Yue’er once more.

Qin Bancheng clenches his fists tightly, suppressing the urge to intervene, and ultimately still chooses to remain neutral.

Tang Yue’er bites her red lips tightly, just a little short of attaining a strength comparable to the Emperor Initial Stage Realm, but still, she fails.

Watching as the mysterious strong opponent charges at her again, she gathers all her strength into her right fist and swings it forward fiercely.

With this strike, she exhausts all her strength. If this does not inflict severe damage on the mysterious strong opponent, what will happen to Big Brother Qin?

Even though she might perish in the next second, her greatest concern is still for Qin Chuan.

"Pfft!"

Just as the mysterious strong opponent’s palm is about to land on Tang Yue’er, a hand suddenly pierces through his body.

"Thud!"

At the same time, Tang Yue’er’s punch, with all her might, also hits the chest of the mysterious strong opponent.

The mysterious strong opponent struggles to turn his head, only to see a young woman’s face staring at him coldly, the indifference in her eyes revealing a terrifying murderous intent.
