"Qiu Ji Zhuo is dead?"
"That brat killed Qiu Ji Zhuo?"
When the two figures of Qin Yichen turned into two small black spots and disappeared at the end of the sky, the onlookers below slowly recovered from the previous shock.
Many people could not help but suck in a breath of cold air as they looked at the lifeless corpse.
This was especially true for the powerhouse who pointed out that Qin Yichen had taken away the Fallen Life Flower. His entire body was drenched in sweat as if he had just walked through the gates of death.
Who would have thought that Qin Yichen would be so powerful as to kill a core disciple of the sect?
Moreover, he had done it in front of everyone!
The so-called core disciples were the future pillars of a sect, a force, and the future of the sect.
Killing a core disciple was tantamount to challenging the authority of the sect.
Yi Jian, Mu Xuan, and Xue Xiong Dao secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, many people had witnessed this scene. Otherwise, the three of them would have been the most suspicious.
"Who … Who are they?"
The three of them were trying to guess the background of Lan Xinyu and Qin Yichen.
Based on the strength that Lan Xinyu and Qin Yichen had displayed, there was no doubt that they were a level higher than them.
It would be impossible for such a person to not have any background at all.
"Let's go. Let the Dark North Sect deal with this matter."
Yi Jian muttered. He was no longer as high-spirited as he was before.
He used to think that he was not inferior to anyone. However, when he saw the two people who were obviously younger than him but stronger than him, the pride that he had once held in his heart disappeared.
How could the current him be arrogant?
Mu Xuan and Xue Xiong Dao were the same as him.
After the three of them left, the onlookers also left one after another. Only the core disciples of the Dark North Sect stood there looking at Qiu Ji Zhuo's corpse with a gloomy expression.
This was no longer just about Qiu Ji Zhuo.
The other party had killed a core disciple of the Dark North Sect in front of so many people. If the Dark North Sect did not respond at all, how would the other forces view the Dark North Sect?
"Report this to the elders immediately. This matter … is not something that we can handle."
At least they were aware of their own limitations.
Qiu Jizhuo was definitely an outstanding existence among the core disciples.
Even Qiu Ji Zhuo, who was stronger than them, had been killed. Even if they gave chase, their fates would not be any better than Qiu Ji Zhuo's.
…
Qin Yichen was well aware of the storm that would follow if he killed Qiu Ji Zhuo.
However, he was not worried.
Wasn't Lan Xinyu by his side?
As a Celestial Warrior, Lan Xinyu must have an extraordinary background. As long as she revealed her identity, no one would dare to cause trouble for her.
"Why did you kill people?"
After they stopped, the first thing that Lan Xinyu said to Qin Yichen stunned him.
"Shouldn't he be killed?"
Faced with her questioning tone, Qin Yichen looked at her speechlessly. "Big sister, they want to kill us, okay?"
"He doesn't have that ability. We just need to teach him a lesson and make him back off."
Lan Xinyu continued to speak in a methodical manner.
"…"
Qin Yichen was speechless.
Wasn't he doing the right thing?
However, Lan Xinyu's actions were indeed very strange. Qiu Ji Zhuo had insulted her before this, but she did not kill him.
"Now that things have come to this, there's no turning back …"
Lan Xinyu sighed softly. Just as Qin Yichen thought that she was going to reveal her background, she looked at Qin Yichen with a complicated expression and said faintly, "I shouldn't have appeared here in the first place, and I shouldn't have disturbed the peace of this area. You … should also pretend that you've never seen me."
This was also why she had intentionally avoided everyone's gaze when she was doing things.
When he heard this, Qin Yichen understood that she would not reveal her identity.
However, could some things really be treated as if they had never happened?
Qin Yichen's expression turned strange as he looked at his clothes on Lan Xinyu's delicate body.
"Hmph!"
As if sensing his gaze, Lan Xinyu realized that something was wrong with her body. She immediately huffed softly and turned around. However, her beautiful face was flushed red.
Although she had tried her best to control it, those images still surfaced in her mind and disturbed her calm heart.
"I'm leaving, you … take care of yourself!"
With her back facing Qin Yichen, Lan Xinyu calmed herself down and left behind a few simple words. Then, she shot into the sky and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"F * ck …"
She left without even a word of thanks. Qin Yichen was in a bad mood.
But very quickly, his mood became even worse ….
This was because he thought of something.
If he were to pretend that Lan Xinyu had never appeared, wouldn't that mean that she wouldn't take responsibility for Qiu Ji Zhuo's matter?
Qin Yichen wanted to cry but no tears came out.
What was this? He had done her a favor, but she had left him in such a mess.
Although his strength had increased greatly after obtaining the Taotie Martial Soul, he was not so arrogant as to think that he could fight against a colossus like the Dark North Sect.
Qin Yichen felt that it would be better if he didn't do such a good thing in the future.
…
Jade Cloud City.
It was an unremarkable small city.
However, in his previous life, Qin Yichen met the people of the Gongshu clan in this small city and came into contact with the Gongshu clan.
However, this time, he had been in Jade Cloud City for four days, but he still had no clue.
Moreover, even if he wanted to ask the people around him for some information, he didn't know where to start.
After the Gongshu Clan went into seclusion, even the powerful foreign tribes couldn't find any traces of them, let alone ordinary people.
Melodious music came from downstairs of the inn. Qin Yichen couldn't help but close his eyes and immerse himself in the music. At this moment, he felt extremely relaxed.
"Ha …"
Just as he narrowed his eyes and enjoyed this moment of peace, the music downstairs stopped abruptly. Then, there was a commotion, causing Qin Yichen to frown.
"Old fart, it's her fortune that my young master has taken a liking to her. If you continue to nag, I'll break your bones!"
Qin Yichen walked downstairs and heard these words. He scanned the hall and saw a greasy-haired man with a few vicious servants surrounding an old man in his seventies and a young girl.
The old man was holding an erhu in his hand, and the young girl had a bamboo zither in front of her.
It was obvious that the music was played by the two of them, but it was interrupted.
