Celestial Dragon Sword Venerable-Chapter 100: Ruthless Lin Qingyu
Guan Tianya suddenly let out a cold laugh, a look of disdain on his face. He glanced at the surroundings, then at the massive Fiery Flame Lion Beast. Two searing streams of Flame Power suddenly erupted from his eyes.
PCHI—
The giant Fiery Flame Lion Beast immediately struggled and roared violently, but within a few breaths, it was reduced to ash.
It had been burned alive.
Its Essence, Qi, and Soul were all extracted by the power of the `Bloodthirsty Soul Refining Technique`.
’`Bloodthirsty Soul Refining Technique`!’
Ye Tianling’s pupils constricted slightly, and his heart couldn’t help but pound wildly.
’This Guan Tianya actually possesses such a malevolent cultivation technique?’
At the same time, Ye Tianling also felt a flicker of doubt. ’It seems there are quite a few cultivators who possess and can practice this `Bloodthirsty Soul Refining Technique`?’
’Was the technique leaked? Or is someone deliberately spreading this flawed cultivation technique to achieve some ulterior motive?’
As Ye Tianling was lost in thought, he saw Guan Tianya wave his hand with great satisfaction. Instantly, Ye Tianling and the others felt the world spin around them.
Guan Tianya was actually flying through the air with the group, using Sky Control, heading directly for the most dangerous place in the outer region of the Ten Thousand Beasts Demon Cave—the Abyssal Canyon.
After arriving, Guan Tianya immediately began setting up a Forbidden Array, trapping Ye Tianling, Lin Qingyu, and the four others inside.
Ye Tianling snorted coldly. "Guan Tianya, don’t bother with a desperate struggle. Before I was captured, I already sent a message with my Dragon Soul. My little sister, Long Tianyu, will be here soon. She has servants at the Nine Refining Sword Tribulation Realm and above! If you let me go, I won’t care if you use them for Absorption or refine them to death. I’ll even forget this whole thing ever happened!"
Of course, Ye Tianling knew these words were useless. He was only shouting like this to force Guan Tianya to act faster and lower his guard!
Sure enough, Guan Tianya immediately began to work even harder, expending his lifeblood and energy to set up the Forbidden Array.
After a full half-hour, he spat out a few mouthfuls of Essence Blood, and a hint of satisfaction finally appeared on his face.
"With this array, I can withstand half an hour of attacks from a Half-step Sword Ancestor Level expert! The Tianyu Saintess is indeed despairingly powerful! But before she gets in, I’ll have more than enough time to kill you and refine you all!"
"Besides, with this Forbidden Array’s Concealment ability, not even a trace of your auras can escape. Even if she gets here, she won’t be able to confirm that you’re inside!"
Guan Tianya was supremely confident.
As a former supreme expert of the Sword Tribulation Realm, he wouldn’t have survived the brutal Sword Tribulation after his failure in Crossing the Tribulation without a few trump cards up his sleeve.
Hearing this, Ye Tianling smiled. "Some people are always banking on a stroke of luck!"
Guan Tianya sneered, "Long Tianshu, are you talking about yourself? Aren’t you the one banking on a lucky break? Well then, let’s see who kills who!"
As he spoke, Guan Tianya’s gaze turned as cold as ice and locked onto Yang Qingyue and the other two women.
"You three. Will you obediently submit and serve as my Tripod Cauldrons, or must I subdue you and let you die in humiliation? Make your choice!"
Guan Tianya’s voice was sinister and merciless.
Judging by his malevolent and gloomy gaze, he wasn’t joking at all.
"Interesting."
Ye Tianling suddenly smiled.
Lin Qingyu seemed to be in deep thought. She had figured some things out and couldn’t help but rage, "Long Tianshu, you bastard! You deliberately revealed your identity to make Guan Tianya kill us! You’re using him to do your dirty work!"
Ye Tianling nodded. "You wanted to kill me. I told you to let me go, but you refused! Besides, it’s obvious this old geezer is bad news. You made a deal with a tiger, so you deserve to die!"
Yang Qingyun said angrily, "Long Tianshu, you are of the noble Dragon Race, with a distinguished and elegant bearing. Why must you be so shameless and despicable? Why frame us like this? If you had just revealed your identity, how could we possibly have treated you as an enemy? If you were looking for a cultivation partner, or even a temporary female companion, just ask Qingyue, Qingyu, and Qingxi. Would they have been unwilling? Why did you have to resort to such lewd and indecent acts?"
Hearing this, Zhou Qinghao couldn’t help but nod, strongly agreeing with this view. 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶
"I truly wouldn’t have refused!"
Yang Qingyue said softly after a moment of thought.
"I would have been very willing, too!"
Lin Qingyu stated her position directly and affirmatively.
"I would not have been willing!"
Lin Qingxi said faintly, but her tone was just as firm.
Her answer, contrary to expectations, made Yang Qingyue and the others stare in surprise.
Ye Tianling sneered. "Frame you? I was just passing by and happened to see Lin Qingyu relieving herself, so I took a look. And for that, she was ready to kill me. Then you all captured me. I revealed my identity later, but it only led to this. You’re cooperating with a vicious old bastard like him; you were bound to be schemed against and murdered sooner or later. My appearance just sped up the process!"
"And now you’re not uniting against him, but blaming me instead? How utterly ridiculous!"
Ye Tianling’s words made the six of them blush, leaving them speechless.
Lin Qingyu wanted to argue, but she couldn’t bring herself to talk about the ’attack’ on her ’pride.’ ’Considering the wild and untamable nature of the Dragon Race,’ she thought, ’from ’Long Tianshu’s’ perspective, maybe he wasn’t really in the wrong after all.’
"My patience is limited. You three little wenches, what have you decided?"
Guan Tianya’s expression was sinister. The fact that two of the three women were actually willing to become ’Long Tianshu’s’ cultivation partners made him feel a mix of jealousy, envy, and rage.
"In your dreams, you old bastard!"
Lin Qingyu shouted coldly.
Relying on her Guardian Foundation of Death, she wasn’t particularly afraid.
Yang Qingyue, however, hesitated. "I... I’ll think about it."
As she spoke, she suddenly gave Lin Qingxi a cryptic look.
Lin Qingxi pursed her lips slightly and gave a gentle nod.
Guan Tianya’s aura began to grow frenzied and malevolent, and he was becoming irritable.
The immense exertion from forcibly setting up the great Forbidden Array had taken a heavy toll, aggravating the injuries from his Sword Tribulation. He couldn’t wait any longer.
At that moment, Lin Qingxi suddenly burned a strand of her Lifebound Sword Soul. A blinding golden light shot toward the sky.
PUFF—
An opening was instantly torn in the Forbidden Array.
WHOOSH—
Yang Qingyue immediately transformed into a stream of flowing light and flew out.
But at that very moment, Lin Qingyu manifested a Blood-Colored Crescent Moon and dealt Yang Qingyue a fatal blow.
PCHI—
Yang Qingyue shuddered. Her life-saving Guardian Power erupted like a giant wheel of light, shooting out to blast Lin Qingyu.
Lin Qingyu’s own life-saving guardian ability activated and suddenly exploded outward, revealing an even more terrifying Blood-Colored Crescent Moon.
The crescent moon, like a wheel of light, carried a twofold Death Guardian Power as it violently flung Lin Qingyu away.
Her speed was so fast that not even Ye Tianling’s Soul Talent could perceive it.
Lin Qingyu had escaped.
Yang Qingyue, completely drained of strength and her guardian ability shattered, fell from the sky.
Her face was deathly pale, blood streaming from all seven of her orifices. She was already half-crippled.
As for Lin Qingxi, her face was ashen, and a large amount of blood trickled from the corner of her mouth. Her own trump card had been completely exhausted. Not only had her battle power plummeted, but her realm had even dropped by a level, falling from the Sword Soul Second Heaven to the Sword Spirit First Heaven Realm.
