The Strongest Mythical Emperor
Chapter 94: He is Not a Good Guy

Chapter 94: Chapter 94: He is Not a Good Guy

"Bald donkey! Who the hell are you?"

Gongsun Tu, clutching his endlessly bleeding right shoulder, asked icily, the murderous intent in his eyes almost solidifying into substance.

Fa Hai, with his eyes closed, replied indifferently, "Who I am is not important. What matters is that you will not be leaving today. A heart turned towards evil is more vicious than any demon or specter!"

When he heard that Gongsun Tu had slaughtered a hundred monks in the Foundation Establishment realm in a single night, he had already wanted to take action, but since Qin Jun had dispatched Cangjun Wolf, it wasn’t his place to intercede. Now that he saw Cangjun Wolf defeated, it was only natural for him to intervene. Although he detested demons, he knew how to prioritize.

Even if he didn’t step in, Evening Star, Daji, and Roaring Sky Dog would have come to save Cangjun Wolf.

He might as well grant a favor by acting in accordance with Qin Jun’s wishes, to dispel any grudges Qin Jun might hold against him.

Gongsun Tu’s eyes were blood red. Although he was furious, he knew he was far from being Fa Hai’s match. Anxiously and angrily, he thought, "How could such a strong person appear? The information provided by An Xiao was inaccurate, and moreover, Qin Yu’s figure is nowhere to be seen."

"Amitabha..."

With that utterance, Fa Hai raised his hand and delivered a palm strike, with golden spiritual energy bursting forth like a fountain, aimed directly at Gongsun Tu. The twenty-odd meters between them was nothing to Fa Hai. In the blink of an eye, the golden spiritual energy hit Gongsun Tu, the entire process too swift for anyone to react.

Pfft—

Gongsun Tu was sent flying backward, vomiting blood, his bones shattered instantly as if he were a kite with its string cut, flung nearly a hundred meters away. The sight left everyone dumbstruck.

This was not a battle between equals!

After a brief silence, the remaining thieves hastily retreated in terror.

"Boss Gongsun is dead!"

"Run for it!"

"Saving your own life is what matters, forget about Boss Gongsun!"

"Mama mia! That old monk is too terrifying!"

The bandits, who had been eyeing their prey greedily, scattered like the tide and soon disappeared behind the sand dunes, leaving Ye Xuan and the other four struggling to come to terms with what had happened.

Jia Xun looked at Fa Hai with a complex expression. Fa Hai’s quick defeat by Evening Star had left him with an unclear understanding of Fa Hai’s true strength. Now, with Gongsun Tu as a reference, he realized the terror of this old monk.

Comparing them, Evening Star indeed deserved his status as a great immortal!

But what he admired the most was still Qin Jun. To have rallied so many powerful individuals to his side, Qin Jun’s skill and influence were beyond imagination, certainly surpassing that of the Qian Emperor, and perhaps even that of Emperor Taizu!

One’s own strength could be derived from talent and time; Qin Jun had talent, only time was missing.

But to earn the allegiance of the strong required personal charisma!

"Thank you, elder, for taking action!"

Ye Xuan quickly thanked Fa Hai, and the other four, including Zhu Yanqing, acted very respectfully.

To defeat a Golden Elixir realm expert in mere seconds, Fa Hai’s strength had to be at least at the Ascending Mortal Realm!

In response to their expressions of gratitude, Fa Hai simply shook his head and smiled, then closed his eyes and continued to chant scriptures. He hadn’t dismounted at all through the encounter, while Gongsun Tu’s fate hung in the balance.

Just then, Qin Jun suddenly ran out from the carriage, urgently asking, "Monk, did you kill him?"

He had planned to take action when Gongsun Tu was utterly exhausted from battle, but he hadn’t expected Fa Hai to be so zealous.

Opening his eyes, Fa Hai shook his head and said, "A monk does not commit the sin of killing. I have merely crippled him."

Qin Jun breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Fa Hai even more approvingly. Then he took out the Desert Eagle and ran towards where Gongsun Tu had fallen.

What was he planning to do?

Ye Xuan and the other four exchanged glances. From Qin Jun’s question, it was clear he didn’t wish for Gongsun Tu to die.

"Hmph, he’s no good person either!" Yang Lan snorted coldly, and although Zong Yan, Murong Xuan, and Zhu Yanqing didn’t speak, they shared the same sentiment.

Gongsun Tu committed countless evil deeds, and his crimes are inexcusable. Qin Jun actually wanted to keep him alive, which definitely does not suggest he’s a good sort either.

Jia Xun couldn’t help frowning, also unable to understand Qin Jun’s intentions.

Bang—

At that moment, a gunshot rang out. They saw Qin Jun fire at Gongsun Tu, who had already passed out at a distance.

"Ding! Killing a Golden Elixir Realm cultivator has granted you 2102 experience points!"

Thrilling!

That was a direct two thousand experience points!

Qin Jun’s face broke into a smile. However, the nine-layered Golden Elixir Realm cultivator Xiahou En had given him ten thousand experience points; combining this with the experience points he had received earlier, one could deduce that the experience points for the energy refining realm were between one and one hundred and that for the Foundation Establishment were between one hundred and one thousand, while for the Golden Elixir Realm it was between one thousand and ten thousand.

While Qin Jun pondered this, Jia Xun revealed a smile. Ye Xuan, Murong Xuan, and Zong Yan showed puzzled faces, and Yang Lan’s face was constantly blushing, a sensation of being contradicted that was truly unpleasant.

On the contrary, Zhu Yanqing stared at Qin Jun with a hard-to-read, peculiar gaze.

Returning to the team and feeling everyone’s eyes on him, Qin Jun touched his cheek and then asked in confusion, "Is there something on my face?"

"Your Highness, you are so mighty that everyone is looking at you," Qin Yun timely flattered. Ever since Qin Yu perished abruptly, this lad had been scheming ways to ingratiate himself with Qin Jun.

"I see." Qin Jun realized and then walked past Ye Xuan with his head held high, much to Yang Lan’s grinding teeth.

This guy is such an egotist!

She so wanted to hit him!

Alas, with Fa Hai present, Yang Lan dared not make a move, and as for what Qin Yun said, she was unwilling to believe a single word about Qin Jun having the Golden Elixir Realm cultivation.

"Send someone to search Gongsun Tu’s body," Jia Xun ordered the captain of the guards. It was no coincidence that they had come across a Golden Elixir Realm thief.

After all, a strong practitioner of the Golden Elixir Realm would be treated as an honored guest wherever they went; how could they possibly become outlaws?

Ye Xuan and the other four shared the same view, discussing in low voices.

Soon, the guards who went to check Gongsun Tu’s body swiftly returned with a letter. After handing it over to Jia Xun, he looked it over carefully and his face suddenly changed dramatically.

"Grandmaster Jia, what does it say on there?" Qin Yun asked curiously.

Ignoring him, Jia Xun quickly ran up to Qin Jun, who was preparing to board the carriage.

"Your Highness King Yue, you must look at this letter," Jia Xun said anxiously, and Qin Jun accepted the letter with suspicion and started to read it.

Qin Yun felt quite hurt. They were both princes; why was the gap between them so large?

However, he sensibly did not approach. By now, his reverence for Qin Jun had even surpassed that for his own emperor father.

Ye Xuan and the rest could tell that this team actually revolved around Qin Jun, making the prince Qin Yun seem insignificant.

"That guy is simply no good, yet he still holds such prestige!" Yang Lan couldn’t comprehend it.

Zhu Yanqing cast a glance at her and said flatly, "He’s stronger than you and holds a higher status. If he’s no good, then what about you?"

She was quite put off by Yang Lan’s delicate demeanor. Throughout the journey, Yang Lan had always relied on her status as a woman, getting Murong Xuan and Zong Yan to take care of her. If it weren’t for Zhu Yanqing being there, Ye Xuan and the others would probably have been ensnared by her a long time ago.

"You!"

Yang Lan was so angry that her body trembled, and she involuntarily looked towards her teammates. However, Ye Xuan and the others appeared to be looking in other directions, as if they hadn’t heard the dispute.

Compared to Yang Lan, Ye Xuan and the others cared more about Zhu Yanqing, not only because of her looks but also because of her status within the sect.
