Chapter 1054: Chapter 1054: Seeing Ghosts!
"And what if he decides to keep all the loot for himself after killing Su Chengyu?"
The Golden Core cultivator was clearly a bit anxious, and the person in the black robe looked at him with a cold, mocking smile.
"What, afraid that you have come all this way for nothing, that you’ll end up empty-handed?"
"Your subordinate wouldn’t dare!"
"Hmph!"
With a cold snort, the person in the black robe couldn’t be bothered to quibble with this fellow and said calmly,
"This hot potato is not something just anyone can handle. I may have reservations about dealing with Su Chengyu, but a Nascent Soul from the Liuli Country doesn’t concern me in the slightest."
Ever since Hua Yingrong asked about the strength of Su Chengyu, the person in the black robe had thought of this.
The reason why he told Hua Yingrong about Su Chengyu without any reservations was that he wasn’t at all worried about Hua Yingrong being greedy; on the contrary, he hoped the greedier he was, the better. That way, Hua Yingrong would help him deal with Su Chengyu with all his might.
There is indeed a significant difference between the middle stage and the early stage of the Nascent Soul, at least Hua Yingrong didn’t seem to be at much of a disadvantage for now, merely looking a bit flustered in response.
"My lord, could this Hua Yingrong be a match for Su Chengyu? He doesn’t seem much better than Zhu Xie."
"There’s a chance, but it really depends on how many cards he still has hidden."
Hua Yingrong’s name did carry some small fame in Xia Country, in fact.
A nobody who suddenly achieved enlightenment and embarked on the path of cultivation in the dwindling Liuli Country.
He used his acquaintance with the Real Black Dragon to mutual advantage, after marrying into the Dragon Carp clan of the Hua family, he usurped the position of Family Head. Then, in just a few decades, he managed to cultivate to the fourth level of the Nascent Soul Realm, which would be considered a genius wherever he went.
Though reaching this realm was the result of consuming countless elixirs from the Dragon Carp clan.
But on the path of cultivation, how many cultivators do not need the aid of elixirs?
In the mind of the person in the black robe, there was only one.
Ye Qingci.
That peerless woman was undoubtedly the most dazzling new star of the Demon Slayer Department.
Many even believe that, if not for Ye Qingci’s unique cultivation technique, her natural talent could possibly surpass even that of Long Xuan, who stood out alone, or at least she could recreate the glory of the twin stars of the Demon Slayer Department of the past.
Compared to geniuses like Ye Qingci and Long Xuan, Hua Yingrong is indeed quite inferior, but facing a Su Chengyu who hasn’t grown up yet, Hua Yingrong might still stand a chance. That’s why the person in the black robe has been waiting and observing.
He would absolutely not act unless it was absolutely necessary.
But should that moment come, even at the risk of exposing himself, he would have to kill Su Chengyu.
That was the mission given to him by Longzhan.
Watching the resolute look in the eyes of the person in the black robe beside him, the Golden Core cultivator felt a chill run down his spine.
With his cultivation level, he naturally couldn’t guess what the person in the black robe was thinking at the moment.
He only knew he was worried that he would once again be used as a disposable pawn.
Facing Su Chengyu, he was very clear that as a Golden Core cultivator like himself, he had no chance of resisting at all.
However, just as the Golden Core cultivator was thinking this, the person in the black robe suddenly noticed something; his eyebrows furrowed, "Jin Xin."
"At your service."
The Golden Core Realm cultivator really wanted to pretend he hadn’t heard, but when facing the person in the black robe, he didn’t dare to make any move at all.
"What are you nervous about? I indeed don’t care about your lives, but I wouldn’t send you to your deaths for nothing."
Noticing the Golden Core cultivator’s discomfort, the man in the black robe spoke somewhat displeased.
The Golden Core cultivator didn’t respond, but he utterly scorned the remark in his heart.
After all, in the previous battle, Zhu Xie was clearly no match for Su Chengyu!
If he hadn’t fled quickly, all those who took part in the ambush would have died on the spot at Su Chengyu’s hands.
"It’s our honor to work for you, sir."
Although Jin Xin had many complaints in his heart, not a single flaw showed in his words.
The man in the black robe, who saw through this but remained silent, suddenly glanced into the distance and said softly, "Among those who surrounded the Hua family, there’s a human cultivator. Go capture her and bring her here."
At this moment, the man in the black robe’s gaze was fixed on Yu Yanshu, who held her wide sleeves.
Following the man in the black robe’s line of sight, Jin Xin quickly also spotted Yu Yanshu, who was moving alone amidst several Martial Kings.
With the aid of her wide sleeves, Yu Yanshu’s strength had already taken a significant leap, and now facing the Martial Kings, she already possessed the ability to remain invincible.
Noticing Yu Yanshu was merely a Foundation Establishment cultivator, Jin Xin asked in puzzlement, "Sir, why have me take action against this little girl? She’s just in the late stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm, isn’t she?"
"Why? Do you have shit for brains just like Zhu Xie? Among all those attacking the Hua family, only this woman and Su Chengyu are humans. Doesn’t that explain enough?"
The man in the black robe spoke irritably, inwardly doubting whether bringing these four people to Liuli Country was a mistake from the start.
Instantly understanding, Jin Xin immediately prepared to set out, and only then did the man in the black robe let out a sigh of relief.
At least they weren’t complete idiots.
"Don’t disappoint me again."
"Rest assured, sir!"
Hearing the black-robed man’s final instruction, Jin Xin nodded emphatically in agreement and then quickly flew towards Yu Yanshu on his sword.
As he charged into the midst of the Hua family, several Martial Kings sensed Jin Xin’s presence and instinctively surrounded this unexpected cultivator, evidently worried that he had come as backup to help Yu Yanshu.
However, facing the Martial Kings closing in on him, Jin Xin’s eyes narrowed, and with a quick flick of his large hand, he bellowed, "Back off!"
The horsetail whisk in his hand suddenly elongated in mid-air and lashed out in all directions, sweeping the surrounding enemies away like the body of a white serpent.
Jin Xin, whose target was not the Hua family members, didn’t deliver a fatal blow. He didn’t want to provoke unnecessary trouble or attract unforeseen complications.
After clearing the crowd, Jin Xin’s gaze instantly fixed on Yu Yanshu as he swung his horsetail whisk forcefully at her.
Although the strike wasn’t lethal, it was enough to gravely wound a Foundation Establishment cultivator, leaving Yu Yanshu barely alive.
Jin Xin watched Yu Yanshu with a cold smile.
You, Su Chengyu, are formidable, but surely your disciple is no match for me, right?
Let your disciple pay this debt on your behalf!
However, just as Jin Xin was scheming in his mind, brilliant multicolored radiance suddenly appeared around Yu Yanshu. Recognizing the familiar radiance, Jin Xin’s heart sank.
Jin Xin vividly remembered that it was this sudden appearance of the Five-Colored Divine Light that had caused him and his companion to suffer one death and one injury, without even coming close to Su Chengyu!
Jin Xin could have never anticipated that, upon attacking a different target, he would be met with the same Five-Colored Divine Light!
Damn it, must be seeing ghosts!
