Her Royal Highness the Princess...
Qin Mingyue, the eldest princess of the Qin Kingdom, is a thirty-year-old Zifu Yuanman, an unparalleled cultivation genius, a world-famous figure, and unparalleled elegance.
At this time, Yang Zhen stood in front of Yang Zhen with an ordinary face.
The hot desert air seemed to suddenly freeze.
A wisp of murderous intent flashed away. Qin Yugui, or Qin Mingyue, looked down at the young man with a cold voice:
"What else do you know?"
"The Art of Planting Jade to Clear the Light, the Art of Concealing the Soul without Form," Yang Zhen said with a smile: "One hides the cultivation level, and the other changes the appearance. Qin Zhu, who was in the late stage of foundation building back then, was able to disguise himself as Yan Hongzhu, who was at the peak of Qi training. Today's Chang Princess, why can’t you dress up as an ordinary peak foundation-building person?”
"I'm curious about which of these two techniques, but I don't know which one, and the effect of avoiding the backlash of inner demons? Your Highness, Princess, can you clarify my doubts?"
Now that he is being stepped on, he can be said to be truly "under".
Qin Mingyue stared at the other party with her beautiful eyes, her face unruffled, and said after a moment:
"The Art of Concealing the Soul without Form. In our Great Qin Zhaowu Army, there is indeed a captain named Qin Yugui, and his cultivation level is also at the peak of foundation building."
"So that's it," Yang Zhen thought about it carefully, and her expression suddenly changed: "Could this person bear all the backlash from the inner demons?"
Qin Mingyue didn't answer with a cold face.
"I should have thought of it earlier," Yang Zhen lamented: "Qin Zhu is just a maid. If the eldest princess was not present in person, how could she have bothered a real ancestor like Qin Zhaowu to take the initiative to inquire about her deeds during the negotiations between the two countries? ?”
"Since you have guessed my identity, I won't lie to you anymore," Qin Mingyue said coldly: "For the sake of giving Qin Zhu a ride in the end, hand over the Earth Spirit Bead and I will keep your whole body. . If you have any last wishes, you can tell them and I will tell them to you, Yunxiao Sect."
Qin Mingyue finally no longer concealed her murderous intention towards Yang Zhen. Qin Zhu is her most valued subordinate, who has always been loyal and courageous in his duties. This young man killed Qin Zhu, and now he happened to fall into his own hands. Regardless of emotion or reason, she never let go of the other person's reasons.
Moreover, Yang Zhen's body could be used in exchange for Qin Zhu's body, which could be regarded as a settlement of cause and effect.
Yang Zhen's heart sank, and her face became extremely ugly.
He knew very well that the other party was definitely not threatening, but really wanted to kill him.
What should he do?
This is the first time since time travel that I have truly felt the threat of death. Compared with the last time in Langshan Secret Realm, facing the third-level monster monkey was even more desperate.
At least there was help from Yiyi back then.
What now?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help shouting loudly in his mind:
"Yiyi, Yiyi, wake up quickly, it's urgent!"
It was at this time that he truly regretted that he should have waited until Yiyi regained consciousness before crossing the river. With the little fairy grass by my side, I won't be as helpless as I am now.
"Yiyi, Yiyi——"
There was no reply, Xiao Xiancao was sleeping in a deep sleep.
…
"I have many unfulfilled wishes," Yang Zhen sighed: "The eldest princess is a wealthy and honorable person, so she must not be interested in hearing the last words of a mountain boy. Speaking of which, I have a few questions. I wonder if the eldest princess can explain them. Second, let me die and understand?"
Qin Mingyue's face remained expressionless, and she suddenly took out a fairy binding rope from the ring and tied Yang Zhen's limbs tightly.
With her meridians sealed and her limbs bound, coupled with the absolute suppression of her strength, she believed that no matter how cunning the other party was, no matter how unintended he was, he could only be at his mercy at this time.
"Speak!" The red lips opened slightly and uttered one word coldly.
In the past, I often tied people with fairy ropes, but I didn’t expect that before dying, I would also taste the feeling of binding people with fairy ropes. Yang Zhen smiled to herself and said:
"First, as far as I know, the Jade Tong Ming Technique can be regarded as an evil skill. It was because of this skill that Qin Zhu went crazy and died. The eldest princess, Jinzhi Jade Leaves, was willing to take extraordinary risks and come here in person What is the purpose of this small world in Panxi Mountain?"
"Rings." Qin Mingyue said bluntly: "The hundreds of rings in the underground palace, not to mention the high-grade spiritual stones inside and the rings themselves, are just the talismans, formation disks, pills, exercises, and even spells collected in them. Utensils, classics, etc., many of which have been lost now.”
"That's a priceless gift."
"Why does the eldest princess know so clearly about the things in the underground palace?" Yang Zhen said in surprise.
Perhaps in Qin Mingyue's eyes, Yang Zhen could no longer escape her grasp, so she did not hide it and told the truth:
"I have an ancestor from the Qin Kingdom who escaped from this underground palace. Ever since I heard that the demon clan had exposed Panxi Mountain to the public, I stopped practicing just for this trip to the small world."
Someone once escaped from that underground palace!
Yang Zhen instantly thought of the three lost golden elixir level rings and understood in her heart. The senior who escaped back then was probably one of the three golden elixirs.
I don’t know what happened in the underground palace, forcing them to kill each other, and finally a few escaped. Also, since this man was leaving, why didn't he take away the rings all over the floor?
Over the years, everything has been buried underground. I wonder if the ancestor of Qin left any records to answer these questions.
No, there is another insider, that little stick!
"I also have a question," Qin Mingyue asked: "Your Yunxiao Sect has been in and out of Panxi Mountain several times. Why didn't you open the underground palace until now?"
Yang Zhen had already gotten the answer to this question from Zixue.
In his guess, Zixue is probably also a descendant of the Yang family. The family has been keeping this secret until a peerless genius like her sister emerged, who cultivated to the Nascent Soul and gained absolute strength, then ordered her sister to come and open the underground palace.
This is the most reasonable guess.
From this perspective, most of those rings should belong to Zixue.
Of course, that's assuming he escapes this disaster.
"What's so strange about this," Yang Zhen said nonchalantly: "It took hundreds of years for our Yunxiao Sect to know the secrets of the underground palace. Otherwise, why would we keep it until now?"
"I think so." Qin Mingyue nodded in agreement.
Seeing that the atmosphere was not as tense as before, Yang Zhen seemed to see a chance of survival and continued to ask:
"The eldest princess must have found the location of the Earth Spirit Pearl due to the guidance of the little stick in the stone house. Excuse me, eldest princess, which senior brother here is the hostage? Qin Mingzhen or Yan Shijun?"
"Nephew Yan." Qin Mingyue replied, then asked: "Where are you? Zhao Yue'er?"
Yang Zhen sighed and nodded heavily.
This was expected by Qin Mingyue. Since Xiaobangzi has captured Qin Mingzhen as a hostage, it is impossible for Yang Zhen to not leave one of them behind. It's just that at that time, under the power of the stick, it was inconvenient to ask.
"Those rings..." Her expression suddenly changed: "Are they at Zhao Yue'er's place?"
Hundreds of rings, whether it's Yang Zhen in front of her or Zixue going to the southeast, would be inconvenient to carry, but Zhao Yue'er holds them very reasonably.
If so, those rings...
Yang Zhen had been paying attention to her expression, and seeing her deep in thought, she quickly said:
"Eldest Princess, I have no prejudice against your country. Although Qin Zhu's death was related to me, at that time, everyone was their own master, and I was just fulfilling my responsibility. The eldest princess is smart and brave, and treats the people below I hope you can understand the difficulties."
"His Highness needs the Earth Spirit Bead for the same purpose as me, which is to redeem people. Why don't you and I go together and negotiate with the stick to release both hostages? Wouldn't everyone be happy? I think the little stick has the same purpose. Treasure, what does it do with the hostage?”
"As for the ring, it will be divided equally between the two parties. You take away the skills, pills, talismans and other items, and we want the spirit stone and the ring itself, how about it?"
He said it very sincerely, and the thoughts inside were half true and half false. Of course, Zixue's real purpose is the water of chaos, which he will never say.
Qin Mingyue would never even mention this thing.
She frowned slightly: "What should I do along the way? I put you in the spirit beast bag?"
Yang Zhen was secretly happy in her heart, but she smiled bitterly on the outside: "It has to be like this."
"Is the ring really with Zhao Yue'er?" Qin Mingyue continued to ask.
Yang Zhen remained silent. Sometimes not answering is more effective.
Sure enough, Qin Mingyue didn't ask again, as if she was thinking.
"Shall we leave now?" she suddenly asked again.
"It's up to you." Yang Zhen said calmly, feeling even more happy.
He looked at the other person with sincere and eager eyes.
Suddenly, he seemed to feel that there was a hint of coldness and a hint of ridicule in the woman's eyes.
A wisp of green flame ignited from the woman's palm, and then with a flick of her hand, it floated to the boy's chest and began to burn.
Yang Zhen couldn't help but groan, shocked and angry:
"Princess, if you feel that my proposal is too much, you can refuse it. Why do you have to humiliate me?"
"Yang Zhen," Qin Mingyue said with a cold tone:
"Your Excellency is so willing to go with me, but you don't know where the Earth Spirit Pearl is?"
Yang Zhen was startled, and then suddenly realized what mistake she had made.
This is clearly telling the other party that the Earth Spirit Pearl is on his body!
Qin Mingyue's logic is very clear:
——If the Earth Spirit Bead is not with you, your proposal is just perfunctory and deceptive. Why should I be polite to you?
——If the Earth Spirit Bead is with you, I can take it myself, so why should I discuss it with you?
Judging from Yang Zhen's words, it is more likely to be the latter!
Sure enough, the woman continued to say: "The earth spirit bead is a spiritual thing between heaven and earth, invulnerable to water and fire. The green flames in this palace cannot destroy it at all. Master Yang, if you hand it over honestly now, I can still keep it." Please be kind to me, otherwise——"
"Don't blame me for being ruthless! If you don't believe me when this green flame burns you to ashes, you won't be able to find the Earth Spirit Pearl!"
…
There was only one cluster of green flames, and the fire was weak, like a candle in the wind.
However, the pain it caused far exceeded that of refining the flames!
Not just the burning of the body, but also the burning of the soul!
Yang Zhen's face twitched and she was sweating like rain.
His teeth were clenched tightly, if not for this, he was afraid that he would be unable to help crying and roaring.
A pair of eyes stared at the other party angrily like awls.
That ruthless woman.
Qin Mingyue looked at him with dull eyes, as if what was burning in front of her was not a person, but a pile of dry firewood.
She deliberately controlled the intensity of the flames in order to prolong the burning time and force the other party to hand it over voluntarily.
Yang Zhen knew that even if he handed it over, he would eventually die.
In this case, why should he hand it over?
Even if only the small bluestone is left after being burned, he won't hand it over!
The young man secretly felt cruel——
Damn thief, if I don’t die, I will take revenge one day!
He once again called Yiyi loudly in the sea of consciousness, but there was still no response.
Instead, it was at this time that the stone chain in his hand caught the other person's attention.
Qin Mingyue reached out and made a move, and the stone chain instantly separated from Yang Zhen's wrist and fell into the woman's hand.
"What is this?" she asked.
Yang Zhen's face was soaked with sweat, as if she had been fished out of water. She gritted her teeth and replied, "Zhao Yue, Yue'er also has a string on her hand."
"Oh, it turns out to be a token of love!" Qin Mingyue suddenly realized, holding it in her hand to examine it curiously.
"Colorful Gang Stone?" She whispered while injecting a wisp of spiritual energy.
The colorful Gang Stone itself is not a spiritual material, does not contain any spiritual energy, and will not absorb spiritual energy. This ray of spiritual energy did not provoke any reaction.
Qin Mingyue frowned slightly and used her fingers hard, crushing a colorful stone into pieces.
Yang Zhen's eyelids twitched and she secretly screamed.
Fortunately, at this time, he had been burning in the green flames, with a ferocious face and a rapid heartbeat, so this expression did not attract Qin Mingyue's attention.
She must not be allowed to try again!
"Stop!" Yang Zhen took the risk and yelled:
"Qin Mingyue, it is true that a scholar should be killed but not humiliated! If you want to kill me, just do it. Why destroy what Yue'er gave me!"
"Before Qin Zhu died, I still treated him with courtesy. Your Qin country, with the dignity of your highness, is not as good as a mountain boy like me?"
"I bother!"
Qin Mingyue was stunned, and the finger that was touching the second one slowly retracted, her face was gloomy, and she threw the stone chain back.
"Forget it, let him go with you."
The stone chain was thrown on Yang Zhen's chest, right next to Qing Yan.
Although the colorful stones are hard, they are only mortal objects after all. Under the burning of the green flames, the nearest one gradually turns into a pile of powder.
The flames began to roll towards the small bluestone next to it.
Yang Zhen became more and more anxious, shouting in her heart: "Yiyi, Yiyi——"
"Brother, are you burning the little bluestone?" In my mind, the little thing's murmur was heard.
"Oh, what a rich earth spirit! Where did you get this earth spirit bead?" Immediately, the little fairy grass exclaimed in surprise.
Yiyi woke up!
She was awakened by the burning of Qing Yan.
Yang Zhen was overjoyed.
"Yiyi, brother, I'm in big trouble." Yang Zhen quickly sent a thought and briefly described what happened.
Xiao Xiancao woke up immediately: "What a hateful woman! Brother, let's beat her to death!"
However, the Zi Mansion at its peak was not something that this person could deal with.
However, after this period of deep sleep, Yiyi, whose spiritual consciousness has greatly increased in strength, has two abilities that have been greatly improved.
First, she can hide in the bluestone space and send lightning outwards, unlike before, where she had to expose a bud outside the bluestone.
The same is true for spiritual communication with Yang Zhen.
In this way, she no longer has to worry about being noticed by the monks above Zi Mansion.
Secondly, with the improvement of her spiritual consciousness, not only the power of her lightning has greatly increased, the effect of her strongest blow has reached the level of Zifu's early stage, but the chance of hitting the opponent has also been greatly increased.
She told Yang Zhen about these two changes in herself.
"Brother, as long as you take him by surprise, Yiyi will definitely be able to hit this bad woman!"
Yang Zhen was even more happy, and in a flash of thought, she had thought of a way to survive in death.
"Wake up Youyou quickly!" he ordered.
…
The green flames on the young boy's chest had gradually burned into a wound as big as the mouth of a bowl. Even the dense white bones inside had turned red in the flames, which looked very scary.
Yang Zhen's pain can be imagined.
His upper and lower teeth were full of blood, which filled the corners of his mouth. Coupled with his twisted and graceful face, he looked like a handsome young man, but now he looked like a demon from hell.
Yang Zhen couldn't bear it anymore and yelled:
"Qin Mingyue, even if I turn into a ghost, I won't let you go!"
"You, the Qin State, are all a bunch of despicable and shameless people!"
"Don't think that Qin Yugui is your maid and just because you are kind to her, you can ruin someone else's path!"
"Sooner or later, she will kill you!"
Qin Mingyue listened without saying a word, her face gradually turning pale.
The scope of Yang Zhen's curses became wider and wider, from the people around her to Qin Zhaowu, to the Emperor of Qin, to the Supreme Patriarch of the Qin Kingdom, he cursed them one by one, pointing their fingers at the heavens and the earth, and cursed them to the point of darkness. .
At first it was coherent, but then the words became more chaotic and bolder.
Qin Mingyue finally became angry.
"Presumptuous!" She pulled out a long whip and swung it hard at the young man.
The pain caused by this whip was far greater than the divine whip Yang Zhen endured in Junguan. Because he had trained his body to a hundred-refined body, every time he was whipped, he brought up a cloud of flesh and blood, bursting out like firecrackers.
Yang Zhen was in agony, but she continued to curse.
"You want to die, but I want you to live a life worse than death!" Qin Mingyue became angry and hit the young man with a long whip like a gust of wind and rain.
It's now!
Suddenly, a purple thunder as thick as an arm appeared in the clear sky, with a wisp of dark red light streaks, and struck the woman fiercely!
At the same time, a black figure suddenly appeared from Yang Zhen's body, a dagger shining with grass-green light, piercing Qin Mingyue's throat...
