Chapter 1257: Old Turtle’s Caution and Discretion

…

The stone pagoda never imagined that its current reaction was being monitored by some sinister fellow.

Ever since Old Turtle established himself as having a ‘tall and great’ image within Qin Yu’s mind, he resolved himself to be servile towards Qin Yu and be in awe of him every day.

This not only required strength and effort, but also that he possessed the guaranteed top spot in Qin Yu’s heart.

After experiencing the rules trial field, Old Turtle felt that this stone pagoda fellow had a tiny chance of possibly attacking his status.

Of course, this chance was small to the point of being negligible. Even so, he couldn’t allow it. This was what people meant when they guarded against all possibilities by nipping them in the bud.

To be careful and discreet were the greatest virtues of Old Turtle. The reason he was able to survive until today could be attributed to these two characteristics. Otherwise, did everyone really think that when he was back in the abyss, the abyss’ will hadn’t made other attempts to erase him?

Haha, that was just being naïve!

But even the careful and discreet him had been seen through, and now he had come to the vast brightness world. Although he had been separated from the abyss’ will, these virtues of his never vanished.

So Old Turtle thought that he could start a small broadcast.

As a result, Qin Yu soon sensed the cheering of the stone pagoda, transmitted to him from far, far away.

His lips twitched and a cold sneer flashed in his lights. Okay, you stone pagoda, I’ll remember this!

And there was also that bastard Old Turtle. At such a time, he looked at his master beaten to the point of spitting blood but he was still in the mood to think such thoughts? It was just preposterous!

I’ll also remember this!

But now was not the time to settle these accounts. He first had to put this fellow to work.

Qin Yu lightly coughed and said in his mind, “As a shadow of the abyss, you shouldn’t be watching with indifference as your master is beaten to the point of vomiting blood, right? And that’s also a great loss of face!”

Old Turtle earnestly contemplated for a moment and thought that these words were reasonable. No matter how he put it, this Qin Yu fellow was his master.

It was said that when beating someone’s master, you should look at their shadow. These bastards were far too disrespectful. After all, he was the shadow of the abyss.

Hum hum, they were lucky this was the vast brightness. If they were back in the abyss, he could simply raise a hand and pinch a finger to turn these scoundrels into goo.

Still, it wasn’t difficult to deal with these people.

“Master, if it’s a critical moment then I will still help, but the loss in strength would be considerable and you would need to find a way to restore it.” Old Turtle spoke like pale clouds and light wind, his tone calm and showing the demeanor of a great expert.

It was just that there was still some emptiness in his tone and some uneasiness in his heart. Compared to before, the meaning of his words had taken another step forward.

If Qin Yu…

“There’s no problem. I’ll definitely make up for it.” Qin Yu readily agreed.

Old Turtle relaxed. He felt that in his contest with Qin Yu, he had taken the upper hand.

Sure enough, striking while the iron was hot was the best decision. He really was too intelligent, too witty, too capable!

If things continued like this, how could he not subdue Qin Yu? At that time, he would have a master in name only.

Hehe, he himself would be the true master of the house!

“Cough…how about this, I will work with master and deal with these people first.”

Qin Yu smiled and nodded, but his heart was like the deep cold winter, diving into the deepest part of his bones.

Give you face…mm? Perhaps I can change things around.

Faintly, Qin Yu had some grasp of Old Turtle’s mentality.

If it was like this, he might as well use this method to make him work even harder in the future.

Qin Yu listened to him on the surface, praising Old Turtle and putting him on a high pedestal. When he became impatient later and pounded him into the mud, the taste of that was sure to be wonderful.

After thinking about this a few times, Qin Yu’s smile brightened.

Across from him, the crowd of Saint circle cultivators watched as the bloodied and distressed Qin Yu crazily laughed to himself. They felt a cold wind shoot up their backs and out of their heads.

They feared this fellow was a lunatic. At the very least he was a pervert. From the look of things, he was completely bipolar!

Damn it. This type of person was the most difficult to deal with. If they kept pushing him to the edge, who knew if he would try and drag them all into the grave with him?

Thinking like this, the people that encircled Qin Yu paused and began to quietly step back.

After all, at least on the surface, it seemed that Qin Yu had reached his limit.

They never imagined that just after Qin Yu’s last cackling laugh, a shadow that came from the abyss and reflected on of the most terrifying things in the world had decided to take action to consolidate his status in Qin Yu’s heart once again.

Stone pagoda? Hum hum, that fellow had fallen into a trap and didn’t even know it. What qualifications did that thing have to compete with him? From now on, Qin Yu would listen to him alone!

If the people who set up the array formation today were ranked in order of who hated Qin Yu the most, then Flatrock and Dragon Peak would definitely be at the top of the list.

The logic was simple. The two of them were the ones that brought Qin Yu here and they were also the ones that nominated him to become their scapegoat.

And this was the result.

If they didn’t kill him, then let alone retaliation from the Peach Garden, everyone who participated in this incident today would never let them off.

In addition…White Phoenix was too strong. Breath after breath of endless cold air came from his mouth, making them all want to pee their pants.

So from the very start, the two of them chose to target Qin Yu.

It couldn’t help but be said that these two apprentice brothers had similar mentalities. For instance, they both chose to retreat when the situation looked bad.

Everyone had retreated, but not as completely as these two did. The two of them ran to the outermost edge in a single bound.

What caused them to make such a decision was firstly Qin Yu’s strange and bizarre laugh. And secondly…this surname Qin fellow, there was absolutely a problem with his identity!

It had to be known that he had walked the path of the Dragon Mountain Holy Land to come here to the Lost Garden. And yet today he had saved the Peach Garden’s White Phoenix. Wasn’t the discrepancy obvious?

This was a person of unknown origin who could fool even Half-Saint Dragon Mountain. Every piece of evidence pointed to him having some unfathomable plot here. What could they do aside from running?

In fact, these two people were extremely smart. At least, everything they thought was more or less right. But no matter how far back they went, they couldn’t stop Qin Yu. And Qin Yu had made up his mind to kill the two of them first.

The reason was also simple. They knew too much about him and they had the highest chance of guessing some things correctly.

For instance, he was surnamed Qin. For instance, he saved White Phoenix. For instance, he followed the Dragon Mountain Holy Land to come here to the Lost Garden…although the chances of them guessing the truth weren’t that high, he was actually cautious and discreet just like Old Turtle.

Behind the crowd, Flatrock’s eyes suddenly flew open and his heart shrank. He felt some sort of terrifying aura movement, one so deep and vast that it was almost tangible.

A moment later, without him doing anything, he froze in place.

Puff –

A bloody hole appeared on his forehead with a hollow sound. It passed through his skull on both ends, bringing a splatter of red and white in its wake.

He muttered twice as thick red blood gushed out from his mouth. Then, his corpse plopped down, his aura completely gone.

Qin Yu withdrew his hand, a calm expression on his face. He sighed inwardly. He had finally been forced to reveal a bit more. Although the path of space wasn’t as rare as the Light and Dark Body, there weren’t many juniors within the Saint circles who had truly comprehended it.

Don’t think the path of space is cabbage just because the big brother and second brother of the Peach Garden had learned it. The two of them had been recognized as valiant existences by the Spring Master who had a chance of rushing to the Ruler boundary.

Looking at the entire vast brightness world, they belonged to the peak-most existences amongst the juniors.

Discreet. He had to remain discreet. He couldn’t reveal any more.

After all, if his status was exposed, the Western Mountain’s Nine Heads would never give up on him. Facing someone who could stand toe to toe with his elder senior-apprentice brother, he had no confidence in winning at all.

At that time, he might be forced to use all his hidden cards…at that time, he really would be in for suffering.

Light and Dark Body!

The paths of space and time!

Forgetting all else, just these things were enough to make anyone go crazy.

At that time, the ultimate goal of the Lost Garden might be switched from seeking the source of life to hunting down Qin Yu.

After all, the things on his body were a fatal enticement even to Saints!

Even if Qin Yu had good luck and managed to survive and flee the Lost Garden, all that awaited him was endless coveting from all directions. Not even his reputation as the Peach Garden’s son-in-law would be able to save him.

Just thinking about the consequences left him in a cold sweat!

Slow down. He had to slow down.

Exposing the Space Laws was his bottom line. The Time Laws, the Light and Dark Body…unless it was a life or death moment, he absolutely could not reveal anything else.

“Ahhh!”

A sharp scream broke the silence. Dragon Peak turned his head and ran, his face twisted. His shouts woke everyone up, and the eyes of the people were full of fear as they looked at Qin Yu.

Just now, with a single flick of a finger, space and twisted and Flatrock had died.

The Space Laws were easy to accept. After all, while no one here controlled them, they had heard about them so much that their ears were full of it.

But why was Qin Yu able to kill Flatrock with a flick of the finger? The Space Laws were fierce, but not fierce to such a degree!

There had to be something else there, something they didn’t know about. And this was what had truly led to Flatrock’s untimely death.
