Poof!
Lu Qingshan pulled out the "Black Blood" sword that had pierced through Ling Wu's body.
A bloody hole appeared in his chest.
Blood immediately spurted out and soon dyed Ling Wu's red feather clothes red.
He staggered and leaned on his spear to prevent his body from falling.
'Although Ling Wu's most proficient technique is Primordial Spirit attacks, which I completely countered, I still have the upper hand in terms of cultivation. This also shows that the power of the Ten Flower Realm is far beyond imagination.'
Lu Qingshan looked at the pale Ling Wu and thought to himself.
"I admit defeat." Ling Wu's body swayed. He looked at Lu Qingshan, who did not take advantage of the situation to pursue him, and said with difficulty, "Thank you for showing mercy."
If Lu Qingshan had not shown mercy just now, even if he did not die on the spot, his injuries would have been much more serious.
Therefore, although he was ridiculed by Lu Qingshan many times, compared to the Spirit King Manor's gnashing teeth, Ling Wu still chose to thank him.
In fact, the level of sarcasm before the battle made him a little angry, but it was definitely not to the point of becoming a mortal enemy.
Lu Qingshan nodded slightly and remained silent.
Of course, he was not so kind as to let the Demons cultivators go.
It was just that with his identity and purpose, it was not suitable to offend too many people.
The reason why he was so brutal before was firstly for the experience points, and secondly to create a contrast.
The more brutal the character he created, the more obvious the gratitude he would receive when he showed mercy.
Otherwise, others would only take it for granted — you just don't dare to kill me.
…
Lu Qingshan's consecutive victories until now already had the momentum of being unrivaled.
"Ling Wu is already one of the most outstanding young Demon Generals in the Royal City, but Qing Ge's combat strength has increased greatly, so Ling Wu can't face him at all!"
"If this continues, only the pure-blooded royal family and the few Heavenly Demons geniuses can suppress him." Below the Weapon Drill Stage, many people murmured.
A peerless figure.
This evaluation appeared in everyone's mind.
"However, will they take action?" Their minds were shaken. They thought like this, but they weren't sure.
Would a prodigy of this level really show his face in public and fight in the so-called Challenge Tournament? Was there really a need to determine a victor?
The possibility wasn't high.
Moreover, even if Qing Ge was defeated by these people, it was nothing.
It was like a person who claimed to be the top scholar, but in the end, he only got the top ten in the province. Although he didn't fulfill his promise, other people definitely didn't have the right to mock him.
'Green Spear' fought until now, the great momentum already formed. It was just too extraordinary.
At this point, everyone understood that even in the entire Burning Moon Realm, there were only a handful of people in the same generation who could rival Qing Ge.
"This Qing Ge is only an elementary level Devil General!" Someone thought of this and was especially shocked.
With the cultivation of an elementary level Devil General, he was able to crush one of the strongest Devil Generals.
With such a battle record, how could it not make people shudder?
In the crowd, Ying Mingyue's beautiful eyes flashed as she muttered to herself, "With his talent, he's only an elementary level Devil General because his bloodline limits him."
If Qing Ge was also a pureblood, with his talent in Battle Techniques, even a Royal prodigy wouldn't dare to be a hero in front of him.
.....
Lu Qingshan didn't look at these people anymore and prepared to leave.
"Qing Ge." Someone called out to him.
Lu Qingshan raised his head and looked in the direction of the voice.
Ying Mingyue.
Seeing Lu Qingshan looking at her, her body trembled slightly, and many thoughts appeared in her mind.
He was also a mixed-blood, and it was also very difficult for him, but he could already look down on his peers.
Moreover, he, who possessed such battle prowess, had actually given him enough face when he fought with him ….
Yes, in Ying Mingyue's opinion, the reason why she could exchange so many moves with Lu Qingshan in the Devil Lord's residence was because Lu Qingshan showed mercy.
After all, the strength that Lu Qingshan had displayed today was far too different from the strength that he had displayed that day. The disparity was simply too great.
"What's the matter?" Lu Qingshan looked at Ying Mingyue with a gentle gaze.
Under Lu Qingshan's gaze, Ying Mingyue stabilized her mind. She bit her lips and said softly, "You've been fighting for days and must be tired. Are you interested in drinking a cup of Dragon Blood Tea at my residence? “
Dragon Blood Tea was one of the specialties of the Royal City. The taste was long-lasting and had the miraculous effect of recovering energy. It was a tribute of the Royal Family.
Lu Qingshan was startled, and then he laughed heartily. "It's hard to refuse!"
Under everyone's gazes, "Qing Ge" and his future wife, Ying Mingyue, left together.
One had a beautiful face and a graceful figure, while the other was valiant and extraordinary. They were really a golden couple.
Ling Wu, on the other hand, left gloomily.
"That's ridiculous. As expected of the Demon Venerable Shi Wu. Such eyesight … He actually found such a good husband for his concubine's daughter!" someone exclaimed.
.....
Grandblaze Demon Master's residence.
"Father, I've asked the person in charge of the Blood God Ridge. They said that Second Brother left the Blood God Ridge yesterday and returned to the Royal City," a young man around 30 years old said respectfully to the Grandblaze Demon Master.
He was the eldest son of the Grandblaze Demon Master, an Eighth Grade Devil Cultivator, Ying Jie.
"He left yesterday, but he hasn't returned yet …" The Grandblaze Demon Master's face was shrouded in shadows and couldn't be seen clearly.
However, from his gloomy voice, one could tell that he wasn't in a good mood.
"Did something happen?" Ying Lie made the most reasonable judgment.
"It can't be." Ying Jie couldn't believe this possibility. His eyes shook. "The road from the Royal City to the Blood God Ridge has been cleared countless times. It's extremely safe. There aren't any powerful Devil Beasts."
"It might not be a Devil Beast. It could be a human." Ying Lie's eyes darkened.
"Who dares to attack us in the Burning Moon Domain?" Ying Jie said in a hoarse voice.
In the Burning Moon Domain, the Soldier Devil Bloodline was respected. In addition, there were very few pure-blooded Soldier Devils. Therefore, every pure-blooded Soldier Devil had a supreme status.
Once something happened to a pure-blooded Soldier Devil, no matter which bloodline the Soldier Devil belonged to, they had to help investigate and take revenge.
This was the unspoken rule of the Burning Moon Domain.
The dignity of the Soldier Devils couldn't be insulted!
This was also why the Shi Wu bloodline could still survive even though the Shi Wu Demon Venerable was about to die.
The Soldier Devil Bloodline was their protective talisman.
Putting aside the internal conflicts, the Soldier Devil Clan stood on the same side when it came to external conflicts.
The Soldier Devil Bloodline flowed in their bodies. Any Demons who coveted the resources of the Shi Wu bloodline could compete with them and suppress them. However, they were absolutely not allowed to kill them.
Otherwise, they would be standing on the opposite side of the Soldier Devil Clan.
It was also this tacit understanding that allowed the Soldier Devil Clan's status to remain unshakable even though they were few in number.
"That's true, but we can't take anything for granted. There have been cases of pure-blooded Soldier Devils being assassinated in history."
Ying Lie's dignified face remained calm. He said lightly, "Send someone to investigate the situation."
"Yes, father." Ying Jie trembled and said respectfully, "Then I'll take my leave."
"Okay." Ying Lie waved his hand and replied softly.
After Ying Jie left, Ying Lie frowned slightly and rubbed his forehead.
Although the investigation result was not out yet, he had an inexplicable intuition that something must have happened to Ying Jun.
.....
In the Mingyue Mansion.
Wisps of tea fragrance drifted out, refreshing one's soul. Just by smelling it, one would feel light and nimble.
Lu Qingshan looked at the tea in the cup with a strange look in his eyes.
The tea was scarlet like blood, but it was not dirty. Instead, it was crystal clear like a gem.
Wisps of mist floated in the tea. It was hazy and dreamy, containing a strange power.
This was the Dragon Blood Tea.
Lu Qingshan took a sip of the Dragon Blood Tea. His mouth was full of fragrance. Then the world suddenly became hazy, and his mind became extremely empty.
Because he was in the Demon Domain, the tiredness caused by his high concentration faded away at this moment.
Because of the Dragon Blood Tea, his state of mind became much more peaceful, and his divinity became clear.
"Good tea." Lu Qingshan felt as if he had rested for a long time. His body and mind were refreshed. He squinted his eyes and praised.
Ying Mingyue was also holding a jade cup and sipping tea.
She opened her mouth. Her cherry lips were bright red, as if she wanted to say something. But after opening her mouth several times, she closed her mouth in the end.
"Are you really going to ask me to drink tea today?" Lu Qingshan said unhurriedly.
"Why? Can't I?" After being asked by Lu Qingshan, for some reason, Ying Mingyue unconsciously swallowed back the words she wanted to say. She raised her head and said stubbornly.
"Of course you can." Lu Qingshan did not mind. "Miss Mingyue asked me to drink tea. It is an honor."
"My face is not as good as Ying Jun's." Ying Mingyue restrained herself and said calmly.
However, everyone could sense the sourness in his words.
"What are you talking about? How can my face be compared to my future wife?" Lu Qingshan said with a smile.
Ying Mingyue's body trembled. She knew that Lu Qingshan had seen through her intentions. Her ears turned slightly red.
But she still refused to admit defeat. "It is just a fake couple. I don't care about that."
She forced herself to explain. "It is just that you promised to cooperate with me and borrow my Blood Spirit Crystals. Then you will help me deal with Great Blaze Demon Master in the future. But you went to see Ying Jun. I am worried that you will not keep your promise, so …"
"Oh, is that so." Lu Qingshan put down the teacup. He paused for a moment and suddenly said, "Ying Jun's condition was not to lend me the Blood Spirit Crystals, but to give them to me directly. And the amount is far more than three."
Ying Mingyue's body shook.
Sure enough …
She clenched her teeth and pretended to be calm. "He is really generous. I can't afford this condition."
She felt a chill in her heart. She was somewhat desperate.
Compared to Great Blaze Demon Master, she had no advantage.
It was reasonable that "Qing Ge" chose Great Blaze Demon Master.
But knowing this in her heart did not mean that she could accept it calmly.
Ying Mingyue's eyes turned slightly red at this time.
"However," Lu Qingshan continued at this time, "I rejected him."
"Ah?!"
This sudden change caught Ying Mingyue off guard.
She opened her mouth wide, revealing her snow-white teeth. She stared at Lu Qingshan in a daze.
"You rejected his condition?" She was a bit absent-minded.
"Why?"
Lu Qingshan nodded affirmatively. "His condition was good, but first come, first served. He came late. I have already reached an agreement with you. Naturally, I can't go back on my word."
"Besides, I am your future husband. Naturally, I have to stand on your side." He lied shamelessly.
Ying Mingyue was stunned. Her mood was extremely complicated.
She found it hard to believe that Lu Qingshan would reject such a huge temptation.
Putting herself in his shoes, she believed that if she were Lu Qingshan, she would definitely not reject such a condition.
After all, he had no grudges with Great Blaze Demon Master.
The grudges were between her and Great Blaze Demon Master.
Is it because of me?
Ying Mingyue guessed. But she quickly rejected this idea.
"Qing Ge" had no feelings for her.
She did not think that she was so charming.
She was not narcissistic.
Besides, with "Qing Ge's" means, what kind of beauty couldn't he get?
Didn't you see that since yesterday, there was a saying in the Royal City that "Ying Mingyue really picked up a great bargain by marrying such a person"?
So, "Qing Ge" rejected Ying Jun purely because of his personal principles?
Ying Mingyue kept thinking and guessing in her heart.
If that was really the case, a husband with peerless talent, excellent temperament, and who could keep his promises and adhere to his own principles, it seemed that she had really profited from this?
Even though Qing Ge wasn't very handsome, in terms of these aspects, he was outstanding and extraordinary, an outstanding holy light.
These thoughts suddenly appeared in Ying Mingyue's mind.
What am I thinking? Why am I thinking about this?
She suddenly reacted and hurriedly dispelled the messy thoughts in her mind.
Lu Qingshan picked up his teacup again and sipped the Dragon Blood Tea. He looked at Ying Mingyue's changing expression in silence.
The atmosphere was a bit strange.
At this moment, hurried footsteps suddenly sounded.
A maid with a horn on her head barged in with a panicked look on her face.
"What's the matter?" Ying Mingyue came back to her senses and saw that the maid's expression was not right, so she hurriedly asked.
"Miss, something happened!" The maid glanced at Lu Qingshan and knew that since Miss asked directly, it meant that there was no need to be afraid of him. She hurriedly reported, "Ying Jun is dead!"
"Ah?!" Ying Mingyue subconsciously exclaimed. She was shocked by this shocking news.
She hurriedly turned to look at "Qing Ge" and saw that he also had an expression of disbelief.
"How did he die? When I saw him yesterday, he was still alive and kicking. How did he suddenly die? "Lu Qingshan asked" anxiously ".
.....
"Father, Second Brother died in the region three thousand miles away from the Royal City." In the main hall, Ying Jie's eyes moved slightly as he reported the details to Ying Lie.
"That is the only way to return to Jianluo Royal City from the Blood God Ridge.
Someone must have known that Second Brother was coming back from there and ambushed him in advance to kill him. "
"Near that region, we found fragments of Second Brother's Battleship. It seems that it was directly shattered by a sharp object.
The attacker was extremely arrogant and had no intention of erasing the traces. They let the fragments of the Battleship scatter around as if they were not afraid of being discovered by us. "Ying Jie methodically explained the details.
"Of course, it could also be that the situation was urgent and the attacker did not have time to clean up the battlefield."
Ying Lie's eyes moved slightly as he asked, "When did Jun 'er get attacked?"
"The people of the Corpse Devil Clan have investigated the area. The remnant aura shows that Second Brother should have been attacked yesterday."
"Yesterday …" Ying Lie frowned slightly. He thought of something and asked, "Does it have anything to do with that son-in-law? He left the city with Jun 'er yesterday, but in the end, he came back alone. The situation is not right. "
Grand Blaze Demonic Master immediately thought of the strange situation that happened yesterday.
"I thought so too, but I've asked the people at Blood God Ridge.
According to them, Qing Ge and Second Brother seemed to have had an argument yesterday. They saw Qing Ge steering the Battleship and leaving first.
Then, after some time, Second Brother left the Blood God Ridge. "
"The two left at different times," Ying Jie said.
Why did Lu Qingshan directly fall out with Ying Jun and leave?
It was to create such a situation.
Ying Jie continued, "Moreover, at the time of Second Brother's attack … Qing Ge had already returned to the Royal City and accepted Ling Wu's challenge. Everyone in the city knows about this. It can't be faked."
This was Lu Qingshan's most important alibi.
"What about the subordinates he brought?" Ying Lie asked, "Were his subordinates in the Royal City at that time?"
"Yes. Since Qing Ge came to Jianluo City, he has been restricting his subordinates and not letting them out easily.
So, his subordinates did not even leave the mansion, let alone the city, "Ying Jie said with certainty.
"He just came here. Other than the subordinates he brought, he should have no one else to command," Ying Lie murmured.
"Besides, Jun 'er's strength is extraordinary. If he could kill him without a sound, the person who did it must not be simple …
Whether it's the time or the strength, it doesn't match. It seems that Qing Ge has nothing to do with it. "
Ying Jie nodded. His face was filled with anger. He said in a low voice, "Then who did it to Second Brother?"
"Investigate." Grand Lie Demon Master waved his hand. "Mobilize your men and investigate the situation. Don't miss any information.
I'll immediately inform the Royal Family and ask them to send people to assist in the investigation. "
"Boom!"
Ying Lie was furious. A terrifying pressure filled the entire hall. "How long has it been since something like this happened?
In the Burning Moon Domain, someone actually dares to attack a pure-blooded member of the Soldier Demon Clan. How dare he attack my son? Where did he get the courage from?! "
He was furious.
"Yes, Father," Ying Jie said angrily, clenching his fists.
The pure-blooded Soldier Demon Clan being killed was the Soldier Demon Clan's reverse scale. It was an act of rebellion against one's superiors.
"Wait." Seeing his eldest son turning to leave, Ying Lie's eyes flashed and he called out, "Wait."
"Is there anything else, Father?" Ying Jie asked, puzzled.
"Why don't we call Qing Ge over and interrogate him?" Ying Lie said.
"Ah?" Ying Jie was puzzled.
This matter obviously had nothing to do with Qing Ge. Why was he doing this?
"Just do as I say." Ying Lie did not explain.
There was indeed no reason. It was just an inexplicable feeling.
He felt that there was something fishy about this matter. It had something to do with Qing Ge.
