308: Chapter 308 Devouring Snake Man, Cruelly Killing Xue Lan
Qing Yue summoned her Dou Qi gauze garment, bit her lip, gripped her longsword tightly, and engaged the Snake-people leader in battle.
The Snake-people leader grinned hideously, brandished his trident, and as the two clashed, he slithered along the sand dunes.
Bang!
The lightning-fast exchange caused the Snake-people leader's pupils to constrict. The young girl's sword technique was fierce, and her pale cyan Dou Qi, like a wind dragon, carried her figure as she moved through the air.
"Your Majesty, Qing Yue's resilience is very strong. To be able to unleash such combat power is quite astonishing. The only thing she lacks is combat experience!"
Yan Xing said with a smile, looking at the beautiful figure fighting desperately, a gleam of light appearing in his eyes.
"This is all thanks to your careful guidance, you Dou Zong level expert!" Hun Tiandi praised upon hearing this.
"Old Yan, are you praising yourself in disguise?" Liu Ling, who was beside him, couldn't listen anymore and rolled his eyes.
"Old Liu, when it comes to the field of alchemy, I admit defeat, but in the field of combat, you still need to humbly ask me for advice!" Yan Xing said proudly.
Upon hearing this, Liu Ling rolled his eyes at him.
After Hun Tiandi taught Qing Yue the cultivation technique, it was Yan Xing who provided guidance on the side. With his strength as a nine-star Dou Zong, assisting Qing Yue in her cultivation was more than enough.
Previously, General Ye Wudi, the commander of the First Army, had rampaged all the way from Tianbei City in the Central Plains, and it was Yan Xing who had taught him.
He had considerable experience in cultivating young people.
Boom!
Watching the young girl fighting in the arena, Xue Lan and the many mercenaries were all dumbfounded.
Especially Xue Lan; as the battle progressed, her face became increasingly ugly. This young girl who had appeared was able to defeat the group of Snake-people experts.
Her clash with the Snake-people leader even proved one thing: it represented that person's return for revenge...
Previously, it was Xue Lan who had personally captured Qing Yue and sold her to the auction house. She did not believe that the other party would generously forgive her for such hatred.
Right now, once the Snake-people leader was defeated, it would be the death date for Xue Lan and the group of mercenaries.
"Meng Tian, in a moment, take the people from the mercenary group and leave quickly!" Xue Lan said indifferently.
"Why? Once this young girl defeats the Snake-people leader, we can leave the Tagor Desert and return to the Mo Tie Mercenary Group city!" Meng Tian said, somewhat puzzled.
"I captured this girl back then and sold her; do you think she will let us go..." Xue Lan's expression was indifferent as she turned her head to look at Meng Tian.
"I cannot leave..."
"No, if we go, we go together. Or, why not kill her to eliminate future trouble?" Meng Tian said viciously.
Bang!
A fierce glint appeared on the Snake-people leader's face. He gripped his trident, flicked his snake tail, and attacked Qing Yue furiously.
The trident weapon shimmered with a crimson light, clearly containing snake venom.
Qing Yue sneered. Having lived in the Tagor Desert all her life, how could she not understand the habits of the Snake-people Tribe?
"Wind Slash!"
She mobilized the Dou Qi within her body, pale cyan energy swirling around her. She spat out sword light, and sword Qi crisscrossed as she attacked the Snake-people leader.
The wind blades emitted a fierce aura as they struck down at the Snake-people leader.
At the critical moment, the Snake-people leader moved his snake tail, changing direction in an attempt to avoid the wind blades.
It was a pity that Qing Yue would not let him have his way. Her longsword pierced through the air, infused with powerful Dou Qi, and pinned his snake tail with a single strike.
Roar...
The Snake-people leader wailed in pain, struggling frantically, carving out a deep pit in the desert.
"If you dare to kill me, the Queen will not let you off!" the Snake-people leader threatened.
"Hmph, today you are fortunate enough to witness the manifestation of the divine eyes: Seven Luminaries Mystic Eyes!"
Qing Yue slowly closed her eyes, then suddenly opened them again. Beside her emerald green pupils, seven small black dots slowly emerged...
The seven black dots were clearly visible, forming a black vortex that slowly rotated. Her emerald green eyes turned pitch black like an abyss.
A mass of black light erupted from her eyes, suddenly surging out and enveloping the Snake-people leader.
Covered by this pitch-black, eerie light, that massive body trembled violently, and the power within his body began to weaken, as if it were being devoured by something.
"What have you done? You devil..."
The Snake-people leader sensed the power within him disappearing and looked at Qing Yue in terror.
"So this is the true use of the Seven Luminaries Mystic Eyes?" Qing Yue felt the surging power within her body and was shocked in her heart.
This was the first time the power of the divine eyes had been revealed, and it was actually this terrifying.
Devouring the power of the snake-like magical beast and turning it into her own—in just a short moment, all of the Snake-people leader's power belonged to Qing Yue.
"Taiqing Gale Technique, circulate for me!"
She drove the cultivation technique within her body, refining this pure power, and as it traveled along the cultivation path, the Dou Qi within her body strengthened.
Her cultivation, which had originally been stable at the Dou Ling level, surged again.
Soaring from the one-star Dou Ling level to three-star Dou Ling, this progress was too terrifying. The terrifying nature of the divine eyes began here.
It far exceeded the years of hard cultivation of others. If word got out that Qing Yue possessed such an ability, I fear there would be no place for her to hide on the Fighting Qi Continent.
Therefore, anyone who had seen the great power of these eyes must die.
While Qing Yue was refining the power, the Snake-people leader lost his life force and perished in the Tagor Desert.
When she finished circulating her Qi, Qing Yue slowly closed her eyes. When she opened them again, the pitch-black light in her eyes had disappeared, returning to their original emerald green.
Deep in the depths of her eyes, seven black dots were rotating, as deep as an abyss.
"Now, should we settle some of the hatred between us?"
Suddenly, Qing Yue turned around sharply, her cold eyes fixed on Xue Lan. Because of her anger, the longsword in her hand was trembling and humming rapidly.
But they had already witnessed Qing Yue's brutal battle earlier.
"Huu, it was I who decided to sell you back then. I am willing to bear the consequences alone, so please let the people of my mercenary group go. Consider it my plea!"
Xue Lan took a deep breath, slowly walked forward, and looked at the murderous Qing Yue.
This was the best way to preserve the brothers of the mercenary group.
"Sister Xue, let's attack together and kill her!" The people from the Mo Tie Mercenary Group behind her looked at Qing Yue angrily, intending to wield their weapons and attack.
"Shut up!" Xue Lan roared, turning around abruptly.
"This doesn't follow the rules. Back then, when I begged you not to sell me, why didn't you agree?"
Qing Yue's eyes flashed with red light. The baleful aura gathered from just killing the Snake-people made the scorching desert surroundings turn cold.
Xue Lan looked as if she was ready to be captured without a fight.
"Wind Blade Vortex!" Qing Yue would not show mercy. If the Young Master hadn't bought her back then, the fate awaiting her would have been an endless hell.
Therefore, Qing Yue struck out with hatred. Her Dou Qi surged, turning into sword Qi that rotated around her body, forming a sword Qi storm.
It enveloped Xue Lan, rotating at high speed, and the sharp wind blades sliced at Xue Lan's skin.
Ah...
Xue Lan wailed in pain, her screams shrill. Her blood turned into a flowing blood mist, her flesh disintegrated, and a cloud of bloody mist emitted a stench of blood.
It drifted with the wind.
A quarter of an hour later, only white bones remained of Xue Lan's body, which lay sprawled in the desert.
This was Qing Yue intentionally torturing her, venting the resentment and anger in her heart. This kind of eerie method stunned the members of the mercenary group present.
"Sister Xue... I will kill you to avenge Sister Xue!"
"Don't be impulsive. Xue Lan gave her life to buy us a glimmer of survival; it must not be in vain!"
Meng Tian rebuked angrily. Right now, taking the people from the mercenary group and surviving was what truly had meaning.
"Get lost!" After killing Xue Lan, Qing Yue felt empty inside. This slaughter had too great an impact on her.
"Hurry and leave!" Meng Tian beckoned. With a flip of his palm, he gathered Xue Lan's white bones and fled into the distance.
"Sigh, she is soft-hearted after all..."
After the people from the Mo Tie Mercenary Group left, Hun Tiandi slowly stood up, looked at the dazed Qing Yue, and spoke helplessly.
"Slaughter is simply a cruel thing for a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl, but when walking the continent, slaughter is unavoidable!"
Yan Xing sighed.
