Chapter 933 - 933 919 Slaying Longhun

Chapter 933: Chapter 919: Slaying Longhun Chapter 933: Chapter 919: Slaying Longhun Shi Xueqin could hardly accept it, saying, “How is that possible!”

“Yes, had I not seen it with my own eyes, I would also think it impossible. But that very day, I saw Longhun murder your father and then my father. It all happened right before my eyes.”

Ling Li continued, “Longhun is ruthless and relentless in pursuit of his goals, stooping to any means necessary. It’s precisely because he didn’t want your father getting in his way. As long as your father was alive, he could never become the leader of the Dragon Slaying Clan or do whatever he wanted.

So, killing your father became a matter of course. Then he simply blamed the disaster on the people from the Demon Domain, claiming they killed your father, which rallied everyone to seek vengeance against the Dragon Slaying Clan. This is the real truth of the matter. I know it’s hard for you to accept, and frankly, I can’t accept it either.”

Shi Xueqin cried bitterly. No wonder Longhun had once said that if he had killed her father, what would she do?

“I didn’t want to drag you into this, but I had no other choice. I’ve prepared everything—only, I didn’t know how to lure Longhun out. He set out to slaughter Fang Ziren’s men today.”

Ling Li went on, “He will definitely come out to save you. It’s our only chance to take him down. Once we kill this devil, this chief culprit, everything will return to deserved peace, and all will be well.”

Shi Xueqin looked up at the sky, feeling foolish. Why hadn’t Longhun gone ahead and killed her as well? It might as well have been all the same to her. Now she knew why they had captured her; it was to kill Longhun.

Su Zhanze said, “Well then, perhaps we should leave the rest of what needs to be said for later. I’ve already sent a message to Longhun. I don’t know whether he’ll come alone or bring people with him, but girl, please cooperate with us for now, even if it’s a bit uncomfortable for you.”

He looked towards Ling Li.

Fearing that Shi Xueqin might lose control in a bit, Su Zhanze said, “Let’s bind her up. I don’t want any accidents. If anything goes wrong and Longhun escapes, I believe none of you would want that. It’s a rare opportunity that, if lost, we can’t know when we’ll have another chance. You all know how cunning Longhun is; catching him off guard once is already quite difficult.

To expect him to slip up a second time is sheer folly. Stay alert. I’ll make him hand over the Heavenly Pearl first, then we will deal with him.”

Upon hearing this, Ling Li nodded. He had long been contemplating taking revenge for his father but had never found the opportunity. He wouldn’t miss this one. To Shi Xueqin, he said, “Qiner, if you still don’t believe it, you can ask him personally later. But we have to capture him first, and I believe he won’t dare deny it.”

Shi Xueqin had been dumbfounded, only now, half a year later, coming to know the true facts of the matter, learning who had killed her father. She couldn’t face it, feeling like a fool. Yet why, why did he have to do this to her, causing her such anguish?

On one side was her own father, on the other, the man she cared for. No, she must take revenge for her father; she must. But could she bring herself to do it?

One hour passed, and Longhun said he would come in one hour, but he still hadn’t arrived, puzzling the Slaughter Saint.

Then a subordinate rushed over and said, “The Young Master won’t come.”

“What, what exactly happened?” The Slaughter Saint, still uneasy, said, “Jing Po, I’ll leave this matter to you. I need to go back to check.”

“I might not be able to hold them off.”

“Just hang in there; I’ll come back quickly with the Young Master.”

Back at the tent, there was no sign of Longhun, only a subordinate. He asked, “Where’s the Young Master?”

The lackey reported, “This morning, Shi Xueqin was captured by a man in black. The Young Master went to rescue Miss Qin.”

“Why didn’t the Young Master inform us of this matter?” Slaughter Saint was puzzled, adding, “Wasn’t Shi Xueqin under your protection? How could she have been captured?”

“That man’s martial arts were very high. The Young Master suspects it’s quite possibly Su Zhanze.”

“What! Su Zhanze captured Shi Xueqin?”

“It’s just a suspicion.”

“Why didn’t you follow the Young Master?” Slaughter Saint reasoned that if Su Zhanze had captured Shi Xueqin, it surely was an act against the Young Master, and knowing the danger he faced, if something happened to the Young Master, it would be disastrous.

“The man who captured Shi Xueqin said only he can go there, otherwise Miss Qin will lose her life. But don’t worry, the seven mysterious protectors have already followed him.”

The Slaughter Saint knew the importance of Longhun; he couldn’t afford any mistakes. If something happened to Longhun, the Dragon Slaying Clan would indeed be without a leader. He had never really liked Su Zhanze, suspecting him of not truly allying with the Dragon Slaying Clan, joining only with ulterior motives. And now it seemed his suspicions were confirmed. If he wasn’t mistaken, Su Zhanze’s goal was probably to kill Longhun.

So how could he not be anxious? He asked, “Do you know where he went?”

Only then did the subordinate remember the note and quickly found the message on the table.

After a glance, Slaughter Saint hurried to call for people.

Longhun arrived, and Su Zhanze, confirming there was no one following behind Longhun, felt somewhat relieved and stepped out.

“No need to hide your face anymore, Su Zhanze. Take off that black cloth strip,” Longhun said.

“Knowing doesn’t change anything,” Su Zhanze removed the black cloth strip.

“I knew you couldn’t possibly sincerely join us.”

“And yet you accepted me.”

“Wanted to see just what you’d play at.”

“Hand over the Heavenly Pearl.”

“I haven’t seen Shi Xueqin yet, I need to know if she’s safe.”

With a palm strike, the door was blasted open, and inside sat Shi Xueqin, bound and held captive by two people.

Seeing Shi Xueqin still alive, Longhun called out, “Girl, don’t be scared, I’m here to save you.”

At that moment, Shi Xueqin was extremely conflicted, he was the murderer of her father, yet he had come alone to rescue her, risking danger. She was at a loss whether to be moved or to hate him—the man she liked, who had killed her father.

Su Zhanze shouted, “Stop dawdling, and throw the Heavenly Pearl over.”

He knew the power of the Heavenly Pearl; without its help, taking down Longhun shouldn’t be a big problem.

“Hurry up, or I’ll have them kill the girl.”

Longhun chuckled and said, “Using a girl as a hostage doesn’t seem very manly, does it?”

“Heh, and you’re not using my wife and my mother to blackmail me? Hand over the Heavenly Pearl quickly, or I’ll have them kill her.”

“Fine, the Heavenly Pearl is yours, don’t be rash.” Longhun took out the Heavenly Pearl from his chest and tossed it over; Su Zhanze caught it and saw that it was indeed the Heavenly Pearl.

“How about it? Can you let her go now?” Longhun asked.

“Heh, you think you can still leave here alive today? Dream on.”

“Is that so?” Longhun guessed the captor of Shi Xueqin was Su Zhanze; he also figured that Su Zhanze must want to kill him if he wanted the Heavenly Pearl.

“Yes, tomorrow will be the anniversary of your death as well as the day I clear my name.” With that, he leapt forward and released a Green Dragon to attack Longhun.

Longhun materialized a Light Wave, blocking the Green Dragon.

With a release, a wave of energy swallowed the Green Dragon and then came a bolt of lightning.

Su Zhanze immediately released a bolt of lightning, catching the energy that was sent his way.

The earth shook with a thunderous boom.

Su Zhanze, taken aback, exclaimed, “You dare to fight back? You two, kill that girl!”

Yet no sooner had he spoken than several mysterious people stormed into the hut.

These seven mysterious individuals were not the sort that ordinary people encountered, even those who followed Longhun were unaware of their existence. Their sole mission was to protect Longhun’s safety; even Su Zhanze, after tailing Longhun for several days, was unaware of these seven mysterious figures.

While Su Zhanze and Longhun were locked in combat, these mysterious people infiltrated the scene and swiftly rescued Shi Xueqin.

Seeing this, Su Zhanze tried to extract a surge of energy from the Heavenly Pearl to kill Su Zhanze.

But something unexpected happened; suddenly, the Heavenly Pearl seemed to malfunction. Indeed, while it was still the Heavenly Pearl, Longhun had tampered with it before handing it over, leaving a trace of demonic aura behind. In order to use the Heavenly Pearl, one must first remove the evil energy, but it was impossible to do so in a short amount of time.

“Since I guessed it was you and knew you wanted the Heavenly Pearl back, I knew you planned to kill me. Knowing you wanted me dead, I wasn’t about to let you use the Heavenly Pearl’s energy against me. It seems you really thought I was a fool.”

A palm strike lashed out towards Su Zhanze, who quickly retrieved the malfunctioned Heavenly Pearl and used the Swift Movement Technique to evade Longhun’s deadly move.

Shua shua shua…

Suddenly, seven or eight people appeared, among them Ling Li and the four great experts: Green Dragon, White Dragon, Yellow Dragon, and Purple Dragon.

The four experts each conjured a dragon and set them upon Longhun, who was taken aback. Having spent time on Slaughter Island, how could he not recognize the four great experts?

In haste, he materialized a Light Wave, blocking the four dragons.

“Ling Li, how did this guy team up with Su Zhanze, and why are there four great experts from Slaughter Island?” Longhun assessed the situation.

While Longhun was engaged with the four great experts, Ling Li, seizing the opportunity, leapt into the air and executed a Falling Leaf Returns to the Root move, sending a phantom sword striking down at Longhun from above.

Longhun promptly released a Dark Beast, which fended off the four great experts and intercepted Ling Li’s phantom sword.

The phantom sword struck Longhun’s Energy Barrier.

Su Zhanze took a leap, shouting, “Tampering with the Heavenly Pearl and guessing my intentions won’t save you today, you are surely going to die.” He turned into a bolt of lightning, rushing forward explosively.

Taking advantage of Longhun’s tussle with Ling Li, a flash of lightning struck with a thunderous roar, hitting Longhun’s Energy Barrier and sending him flying through the air.
