Chapter 708: Elder Yellowbeard

Translator: CKtalon Editor: CKtalon

Yuci had three avatars that were split off from his main body. Each one of them was extremely weak, with only the strength of a half-step mighty figure. Since they were sufficiently weak, the negative effects they had on the main body were sufficiently small.

And this time, Qin Yun’s attack had traveled far away through karma. Even though the might decreased drastically, it was enough to kill the three avatars.

Merit even descended upon Qin Yun.

“He’s dead.” Qin Yun said to his disciple, Bian Hanyu. “Let’s return.”

With that said, he took one step and disappeared from the Yellowbeard Great World with his disciple.

...

“Whoosh.”

A yellow-haired elder appeared in the hall of Yuci’s cave abode.

“Nicely done, Qin Yun. How dare you,” the yellow-haired elder muttered. “You crossed the void and came here to kill Yuci and left once you killed him! What a clean and straightforward kill! I asked him to spare Yuci... but he completely ignored me. Clearly, he doesn’t think anything of me. However, he can’t do a thing to me either. If he was strong enough, he would probably kill me as well.”

“Yellowbeard, you can’t even protect your subordinate?” A figure appeared out of thin air. He was none other than God King Zhurong.

The elder looked at Zhurong and said with a self-deprecating tone, “God King, you have strength at the half-step Heavenly Dao realm. That Qin Yun also has the strength of a half-step Heavenly Dao realm, but as for me... my strength is ultimately weaker. Furthermore, Qin Yun’s protective sword array is famous all over the realm. Even if I were to use all my strength, I wouldn’t be able to do a thing to him. What could I do to prevent him from killing Yuci?”

“Yes, his protective sword array is powerful.” Zhurong nodded.

“He only has 39 years left to his tribulation. Yet, he came here to kill Yuci. He truly abhors evil as the rumors go.” The elder chuckled oddly and said, “People like us who treat the Three Realms as a hunting ground where we hunt without any qualms are probably a sore sight to him. Besides, we have helped the Fiend Ancestor wreak havoc in the Three Realms numerous times.”

Zhurong laughed. “Your life-preservation skills make you unkillable under the Heavenly Dao realm. Although you can’t damage him at all, he can’t do a thing to you either.”

“His strength has grown a lot from when he first killed Daoist Wen.” The elder shook his head. “I tried to stop him by taking action in secret, but I failed.”

“Of course he’s stronger,” Zhurong said. “He has been to the spatial tide twice and, ignoring the treasures he obtained, his Intrinsic Flying Sword has become a Merit Cardinal treasure. His strength has naturally increased.”

“That’s right, a huge increase in strength.” The elder’s eyes looked gloomy.

“That’s why you should bear with it a little longer, Brother Yellowbeard,” whispered Zhurong. “Don’t forget the matter that you have agreed upon with me and the Fiend Ancestor. Now that we are at a critical juncture of this plan, you must not fight with Qin Yun who has little time left.”

Zhurong was truly afraid that this partner of his would fight Qin Yun out of embarrassment and anger.

After Qin Yun’s Intrinsic Flying Sword became a Merit Cardinal treasure, his strength turned even more unfathomable. Even Zhurong wasn’t confident in dealing with him, so he was afraid his partner would end up dying.

“Don’t worry. It will not affect the Fiend Ancestor’s grand plan,” said the elder.

“That’s good.” Zhurong nodded and left.

...

The moment Chaos Godfiend Yuci died, many mighty figures in the Three Realms sensed it.

The death of a mighty figure was enough to shock the Three Realms.

“It’s Sword Immortal Qin.”

“Sword Immortal Qin killed Yuci.”

“Sword Immortal Qin really abhors evil. Well killed!”

Some cheered at his actions while others reeled in panic.

“What do I do? Patriarch Yellowbeard is profoundly formidable. He should have been able to protect Brother Yuci, so how did he end up being killed?”

“That Sword Immortal Qin’s Intrinsic Flying Sword has become a Merit Cardinal treasure, making him stronger. Even Patriarch Yellowbeard can’t protect his subordinates any longer.”

“Will this Sword Immortal Qin continue his slaughter? Will he kill other mighty figures?”

“It’s possible. Sword Immortal Qin is well known for his ruthlessness. Back when he killed Skyfiends, he basically shook the world with their deaths.”

“Although Brother Yuci had heavy sins, there are about ten plus Chaos Godfiends with the same level of sins. Will the rest of them also be killed by Sword Immortal Qin?”

Mighty figures felt unease.

Back when Qin Yun killed Daoist Wen, he had also killed several mighty figures with immense sin. Back then, it was enough to scare the ones with enough sin or mighty figures who lacked a strong backer. Many of them ended up changing allegiances.

Back then, Patriarch Yellowbeard was a strong enough backer.

Now...

With only 39 years left to his tribulation, Qin Yun had started his killings again.

Across the Three Realms, the number of people who could protect these sinful mighty figures were few and far between! These sinful mighty figures were also feeling great unease. They acted quickly and immediately, five switched allegiance! Some swore to turn over a new leaf by becoming a Buddhist. Some entered the Tenebrous Fiend Abyss and others pledged allegiance to other mighty figures.

...

As there was worry elsewhere, the yellow-haired elder was drinking by himself. He was in a terrible mood since Qin Yun had basically killed someone under his nose.

“Patriarch.” A gray-robed monkey-mouthed Daoist walked in and bowed.

“What are you doing here?” The elder shot a glance at him.

“Patriarch, that Qin Yun killed Brother Yuci, completely disregarding you. I’m also furious,” the Daoist said in a deep voice. “Patriarch’s means are unique to the Three Realms. Who can do anything to you other than the Dao Ancestors and Buddhist Ancestor? Why should you suppress your anger? I believe that although Qin Yun is powerful, he still has family. Why don’t you kill a few of his family members and let him know that you should not be messed with?”

“Fool!”

The elder berated him in anger. “His family is either in a Small World, the Great Chang world, or in the Heavenly realm’s Mt. Lightning Roar. The Heavenly realm... is where even the Dao Ancestor can appear in his true form. You want me to court death?”

“No, not at all,” said the Daoist immediately. “I’m not trying to harm you, Patriarch! What I mean is that... Qin Yun still has weaknesses. His family members are his weaknesses. Find an appropriate opportunity and exact revenge on him.”

“To involve family in this is way too despicable.” The elder shook his head.

“Patriarch, this is returning an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.” The gray-robed Daoist’s eyes were filled with ferocity.

“You fool, scram,” berated the yellow-haired elder.

“Yes, yes!”

The gray-robed Daoist could only take his leave obediently.

As the yellow-haired elder continued drinking alone, he recalled the sequence of events. To have Qin Yun kill one of his strongest subordinates in his territory, it was indeed quite a humiliating act. Furthermore, this matter had spread throughout the Three Realms.

“What can I do?”

“He does has weaknesses and his soft spots, but I can’t just charge into the Heavenly realm to send myself to my death.” The elder shook his head when he suddenly froze. Gradually, his eyes lit up.

“I got it!”

The elder turned increasingly excited. “There’s no need to charge into the Heavenly realm to vent my anger! Besides... I might benefit greatly from it.”

“What a good idea.”

The more he thought about it, the happier the elder became.

******

Heavenly realm, Mt. Lightning Roar, Qin Manor.

“Master, thank you for avenging me.” Bian Hanyu knelt down and kowtowed in utmost gratitude.

“Alright, get up,” said Qin Yun. If Bian Hanyu’s enemy wasn’t ridiculously powerful, he could have left him as a motivational factor for her. However, Yuci was a pinnacle mighty figure! Even though Qin Yun was confident in his disciple... he was not going to assume she could become a mighty figure. If the enemy was too powerful, one so powerful it would leave Bian Hanyu in despair, even she would find revenge a joke. That would no longer be motivational but become a mental demon.

Furthermore, he only had 39 years left to his tribulation. Qin Yun had no way to keep protecting his disciple, so it was best to rid her of him early.

“Yes, Master.” Only then did Bian Hanyu get up.

“You can go to Misty Rain Tower,” said Qin Yun. “In it are the sword immortal manuals I created. You can read them as much as you want and can cultivate them. You should cultivate alone for a month. I will teach you more when you are finished.”

“Yes Master, I shall take my leave.” Bian Hanyu was now enlivened and filled with fighting spirit. She felt that her entire life was now different.

After Bian Hanyu left, Yi Xiao said with a smile, “Brother Yun, you sure are nice to this disciple of yours.”

“She’s my only disciple in the sword immortal lineage anyway,” said Qin Yun. “I have no idea how far her cultivation can go before my tribulation. Unfortunately, time is just too short and I’m unable to teach her for long.”

“Didn’t you say that back when the Dao Ancestor took you in as a disciple, he only taught you in the beginning, but the rest was all done by yourself?” Yi Xiao said. “In comparison, you have provided your disciples enough help.”

Qin Yun laughed. “That’s true. A master can recruit them, but at the end of the day, it depends on the disciples themselves.”

“Oh?”

Qin Yun suddenly frowned. “He actually dares come?”

“Who?” Yi Xiao asked.

“Elder Yellowbeard.” Qin Yun sneered. “However, it’s merely an avatar manifestation. Let’s go and take a look. Let’s see what this Elder Yellowbeard is up to.”

With that said, the couple walked out.

Somewhere on the mountaintop, the clouds ahead split apart as a yellow-haired elder’s illusory figure walked over.
