My White and Rich Beautiful CEO Wife-Chapter 273: Leave One Behind

"Half-Step Pill Holding?"

Qin Yu was also incredibly surprised.

Because his grandfather had said that even Huajin masters were now rare in today’s society, let alone those who had reached the Pill Holding level.

It seemed that the Xiangxi Corpse-Driving Clan really had some tricks up their sleeve, able to refine such a master.

"Humph, it seems that you are also half a step into Huajin, right? To reach such a cultivation level at a young age means breaking through to Huajin is just a matter of time. Unfortunately, you’re no match for our puppet!"

The man in the black robe glanced at Qin Yu and spoke with a cold tone.

"A puppet is just a puppet, it can’t compare to a living person!"

Although Qin Yu was shocked, he wasn’t scared and even felt a hint of excitement. It was like playing a game, getting bored of small monsters and finally encountering a BOSS— not only do they give high experience points, but they also drop great loot, right?

Engaging in a life-and-death struggle with such a high-level master would definitely benefit him greatly.

"If you seek death, we won’t stop you!"

The man in the black robe took out a very small flute from his sleeve and began to play it.

"Twee..."

As the shrill sound of the flute began to rise, the aura of the robed figure surged notably.

"Swish, swish..."

Waving his two arms, he took the initiative to launch an attack at Qin Yu.

"Jade Dragon Coiled Legs!"

After unlocking the power of his Dragon Spine, Qin Yu hadn’t yet used the lethal "Black Dragon Eighteen Palms." Originally, this practical fighting technique was banned by the military precisely because it was too deadly.

Now, using it against a combat puppet, Qin Yu felt no psychological burden at all.

His legs moved like a pair of scissors, twisting towards the ankles of the robed figure.

Just as he had said earlier, a puppet was just a puppet; it had no thought process, and its flexibility certainly couldn’t match that of a real Pill Holding master.

"Twee..."

Indeed, upon seeing Qin Yu attacking the puppet’s lower body, the man in the black robe immediately played his flute to control the puppet to change its tactics.

This meant that the puppet’s reaction speed was entirely dependent on the flute controlled by the man behind it.

"Dragon Coiling Around the Jade Pillar!"

Seeing the robed figure change tactics, Qin Yu immediately bounced up and stood, his fists heavily pounding towards the chest of the robed figure.

"Bang!"

Qin Yu, with more practical combat experience than most experts, didn’t give the man in the black robe enough time to change the puppet’s tactics with his flute.

In an instant, the chest of the robed puppet was solidly hit by Qin Yu’s fist.

"Damn... that’s hard?"

After successfully landing a hit, Qin Yu quickly retreated, but his expression became somewhat ugly. His fist felt as if it had struck steel when hitting the puppet.

It had numbed his arm with the impact.

However, he also made an important discovery, confirming his guess. It seemed as if he was battling with the robed figure, but in reality, he was competing against the man in black controlling him.

They controlled the puppet with flute sounds; their strength determined the puppet’s, and their weakness, likewise.

"Twee..."

The man in the black robe, having seen Qin Yu manage to land a hit on their puppet, felt a loss of face and the flute sound became even sharper.

"Swish, swish..."

In an instant, the robed puppet, as if injected with a stimulant, waved its arms and lunged at Qin Yu.

"Single Palm Pushing the Stele!"

Qin Yu spread his legs apart, adopting a horse stance, and pushed forward with his right palm, attacking the chest of the man in black.

"Thump, thump..."

Once again, the robed puppet was hit, but its powerful force also caused Qin Yu to keep retreating.

"Twee, twee..."

The sound of the flute from the man in black underwent another change, and the puppet twisted its head, lunging towards Miao Xian’er.

After struggling with Qin Yu for so long without being able to defeat him, the man in the black robe was losing patience. Their goal was to capture Miao Xian’er and take the 500-year-old ginseng from the Liu Family. Now that they had the ginseng, the only thing missing was Miao Xian’er.

They were tired of wasting time with Qin Yu—catching Miao Xian’er meant completing their mission, and there was no need to complicate matters unnecessarily.

"Ah..."

Miao Xian’er’s most powerful Golden Silkworm Gu couldn’t deal with the black-robed monster. Seeing it pouncing towards her, she let out a cry of alarm and turned to run.

Without the enhancement of gu poison, her combat power was almost zero.

"Monster, don’t bully a girl!"

Qin Yu chased after from behind.

But he had no weapons, and the body of the black-robed monster was extremely hard, like it was made of diamond; even if he managed to land one or two punches, it was akin to tickling.

So, the black-robed monster pursued Miao Xian’er, Qin Yu pursued the black-robed monster, and at the edge of the cliff, there were two black-robed people playing flutes.

This scene was as bizarre as it could get.

"Bang...."

The black-robed monster’s speed was definitely much faster than Miao Xian’er’s.

After running less than ten meters, he reached behind Miao Xian’er and grabbed her shoulders.

However, Qin Yu also got behind the black-robed monster and viciously kicked at the back of its knees.

The black-robed monster’s body finally swayed, and the powerful inertia made Miao Xian’er’s petite body suddenly fly out and crash into the bare rocks.

"Ah...."

Miao Xian’er cried out in pain, a trickle of blood seeping from her hairline.

"Wu wu...."

Seeing Miao Xian’er injured, Ghost Granny became extremely agitated.

"Crack.... Crack...."

As she forcefully stretched her body, she grew a few inches taller and, astonishingly, snapped the ropes binding her.

"Miss!"

Ghost Granny, in the ultimate form of Xingyi Quan, pulled the gag from her mouth and ran towards Miao Xian’er.

"Chirp chirp...."

The two black-robed individuals also started to panic. Qin Yu was already a bit troublesome to deal with, and with Ghost Granny joining in, their puppet might not necessarily be the match.

They had no choice but to blow their flutes desperately, instructing the puppet to block Ghost Granny.

"Get lost!"

Ghost Granny, mad with fury, didn’t care about the black-robed monster’s attacks, clenched her fist, and charged into the black-robed monster.

However, driven by the sound of the flute, the black-robed monster’s combat power continued to surge.

It grabbed Ghost Granny’s arm in one motion and flung her forcefully, sending Ghost Granny flying into the rocks as well.

Nevertheless, she was a Huajin master, and her physical condition was much stronger than Miao Xian’er’s.

"Cough cough...."

After a few violent coughs, wiping the blood from the corner of her mouth, she charged towards the black-robed monster again.

"Swoosh...."

The black-robed monster waved its hands, and ten fingers penetrated Ghost Granny’s shoulders.

"Qin Yu, take the miss and run!"

Ghost Granny’s face showed a pained expression as she tightly grasped the black-robed monster’s arms, clearly intending to sacrifice herself in exchange for Miao Xian’er’s chance to live.

"You take Xian’er and go, I’ll handle this monster!"

Qin Yu knew that today someone had to stay behind; otherwise, given the black-robed monster’s combat power, all three of them would die here.

He didn’t want to go to Miaojiang in the first place, so he might as well stay and face the black-robed monster, letting Miao Xian’er and Ghost Granny escape. This could also count as compensation for taking away Miao Xian’er’s first time.

"Qin... Qin Yu...."

Miao Xian’er was severely injured in the head, blood constantly seeping out, weakly calling out before fainting.

"Quick, take Xian’er and go!"

Qin Yu, from behind, clutched the black-robed monster’s neck tightly, temporarily immobilizing it.

"Okay, be careful yourself!"

Ghost Granny gritted her teeth, turned around, and ran towards the Jeep Wrangler nearby, carrying Miao Xian’er.

"Chirp chirp...."

The black-robed people became frantic, blowing the flute even more crazily; the puppet also became anxious.

Reversing its grip on Qin Yu’s arms, it executed a shoulder throw, slamming Qin Yu hard onto the ground.
