Chapter 259 Misdeeds Lead to Amnesty, The Three Fiends Secret Technique

The three immortals died on the spot, and the other immortals who were watching this scene were all dumbfounded and shocked.

They never expected that those three guys could die right at their doorstep, and that Yu Que would actually dare to kill them!
"What audacity!" many immortals murmured.

Before they could react further, a cold shout rang out on the sea.

"audacious in the extreme!"

The shout came from the direction of Zhenjun Island, and the voice was full of anger and killing intent.
"Anyone who dares to kill me is tired of living."

After a cold snort, a golden light, only a fraction slower than the shout, struck Yu Que head-on.

Yu Que stood on the sea, his expression suddenly changing.

He immediately dodged to the side.

When he narrowly avoided the golden light's attack, the golden light did indeed land on the Rakshasa whale ship beneath his feet.

Exclamations and cries of pain rang out from the whale ship.

On the whale ship, the formation set up by the Huangshan disciples could not even last half a breath under the impact of the golden light, and it burst on the spot like a bubble.

Because it had been tainted by malevolent energy, the entire whale ship was already in ruins, and now, under the bombardment of external forces, it has completely disintegrated.

"The true teachings! Help!"

Screams erupted, and the people on the boat tumbled into the sea like dumplings being dropped into boiling water.

Even Gong Dongxue and Princess Rakshasa, though they barely escaped falling into the sea, still showed obvious shock and fear on their faces.

The golden light that had shattered the whale ship in one strike did not disappear after its success. Instead, it pierced through the whale ship, hovered on the sea for a while, and then changed direction again, rushing towards them.

Gong Dongxue and the others turned pale and hurriedly mobilized their evil energy and various spells, intending to withstand the attack head-on.

Yu Que noticed their situation, his brows furrowed immediately, and he shouted sharply:

"You dare!"

Without hesitation, he flicked his sleeve, and the ancient treasure of Lingshan tumbled out, blocking the golden light.

A loud clang echoed across the sea!

Taking advantage of the moment when the golden light paused, Yu Que quickly pounced down, and another object rolled out of his hand. It landed on the sea surface and immediately grew larger, becoming a hundred feet long. It then stuffed Gong Dongxue, the Rakshasa Princess, and all the disciples and Rakshasa people who had fallen into the sea into it.

After it was installed, Yu Que's expression relaxed slightly.

Then his body flashed and appeared on top of the hundred-foot-tall behemoth, coldly staring at the golden light that was blocked by the ancient treasure of Mount Ling.

Upon closer inspection, he discovered that the golden light was actually a large golden arrow. After the second strike, its tail feathers continued to tremble, and tiny, tadpole-like blood-red runes were moving across its surface.

Click click click.

Just as Yu Que was observing, the fifth-grade ancient treasure he released could not withstand the impact of the golden arrow and made a cracking sound.

With a snap, the object was flung into the air and struck hard by the golden arrow, chipping off a piece and rendering it completely ineffective.

At that moment, a soft laugh came from the direction of Zhenjun Island:

"It seems that Bai Shanze's treasure was entrusted to the wrong person. It has fallen into such a state of disrepair not long after it fell into your hands."

Yu Que's eyelids twitched slightly. After examining the golden arrow a few more times, he waved his hand and collected the mountain-shaped ancient treasure and its fragments that had flown out.

He smiled calmly and said, "Isn't the thing called a treasure just something to avoid disasters and ward off misfortunes, and then throw away after you're done with it?"

On the contrary, Lord Tiance, you only fired arrows to save people after those three fellow Daoists had already died. It was far too late. Be careful not to discourage your subordinates.

He was mocking the man who secretly fired the arrow, implying that he waited until the person was dead before making his move.

On Zhenjun Island, Tiancejun sat cross-legged in the midst of the army formation, holding a large bow in his hand. With his eyes slightly closed, he released an arrow at Yu Que from a distance of a hundred miles.

With just one arrow, it broke through the Huangshan Formation and destroyed a fifth-grade ancient treasure. It is truly remarkable!
Through the military formation on the island, Tian Ce Jun heard Yu Que's mockery from a distance of a hundred miles. He couldn't help but tighten his grip on the great bow in his hand, and his angry expression reappeared on his face.

"Hmph! You're courting death, then I'll grant your wish!"

Tian Ce Jun reached out and shouted, "Bring me the arrows."

The eunuchs standing on either side quickly took a large, blood-red arrow with gold patterns from the weapon rack beside them.

This arrow was several sizes larger than the previous golden arrow, about the thickness of an adult's wrist, and there were streaks of blood-red light swirling around it.

When it was moved, even the slightest movement caused a series of ghostly wails to erupt around it. The eunuchs carrying the arrows were terrified, their faces turning deathly pale.

But when Lord Tiance nocked the blood-stained arrow onto the great bow, preparing to draw the bow and release it, a shout came from below the stage:
"Report! The old general has given orders."

Tian Cejun frowned. He paused, pretended not to know, and continued to draw his bow.

Whoohoo!
In the vast military camp, the winds of war gathered and the military spirit swept through in an instant.

Just then, an aged voice rang out, and a powerful pressure descended from the sky, landing above the military camp and instantly suppressing the strange phenomena that had arisen within.

"Heavenly Book, that's enough."

Those three dared to besiege the returning ship, and lost their lives in the fierce battle. They were simply outmatched and had only themselves to blame.

Why bother getting involved with those three guys and ruining your relationships with your colleagues?

The direction from which the sound came was none other than the location of the Zhenhai Army; it was the voice of the old Zhenhai General.

Faced with the old general's personal intervention, Tian Ce Jun could no longer pretend not to know.

He could only slowly draw back the bowstring, remove the blood-stained arrow from the bow, and then bow in the direction of the old general.

"Yes, I humbly accept my order!"

The old general of Zhenhai let out a laugh:
"What's with all this talk about obeying orders? You're a general, and so am I."

"I am very pleased that you are willing to listen to this old man's ramblings."

After a verbal commendation, the oppressive aura that had been pressing down on the Tian Ce Army receded like a tide, disappearing completely in a moment.

The eunuchs and guards around Tian Ce Jun were finally able to breathe again and gasped for air.

As for Tian Ce Jun himself, his expression was unusually calm, revealing no trace of joy, anger, sorrow, or happiness.

The man simply tossed aside the blood-stained arrow and the great bow, then walked into his tent without showing any sign of distress.

However, his act of throwing the bow already revealed the turmoil in his heart.

It should be known that this great bow, along with the three large arrows in gold, red, and black, were ancient treasures that the Heavenly Emperor received from the Imperial Preceptor.

It has been refined and worshipped using the methods of the immortals of today. In addition to the bow and arrow itself being extraordinary, it can also absorb incense and military energy, gather the power of ten thousand troops, and shoot people's heads from thousands of miles away, which is called "Heavenly Punishment".

After acquiring this item, Tian Ce Jun had already used it to kill a fifth-rank Refining Qi Immortal, and he only used the Blood Arrow from the three arrows, not the Black Arrow. Therefore, he cherished this bow and arrow very much. Normally, if any servants or eunuchs neglected the bow and arrow, he would scold or even kill them, unlike now, when he would simply leave the bow and arrow lying on the table.

At the same time, on the other side.

Yu Que stood on the Rakshasa-headed ship, ready and waiting for Tian Ce Jun's next move.

But no matter how long he waited, he didn't receive any countermeasures from the other side. Instead, several warships sailed over, and after signaling with friendly flags, they carefully approached Yu Que and took back the volatile golden arrow.

The other party also respectfully invited Yu Que to board the ship, and said:

"The misunderstanding between Yu Zhenchuan and General Tiance has been cleared up by the old general."

Those three guys just now attacked their colleague and lost in their duel with Master Yu. They deserve to die. Master Yu, please come to the island.

As for the merits and achievements of these three men, all have been transferred to Yu Zhenchuan's name, and the old general will bestow further rewards upon them.

Upon hearing this, Yu Que's calm expression was shattered, and he appeared quite taken aback for a moment.

He truly never imagined that he, who had committed murder and arson, would not only be blameless but also meritorious.

However, it is clear that the inside story of this matter is not as simple as the sergeant who came to visit described.

"We'll deal with whatever comes our way, let's just go to the island and take a look," Yu Que thought to himself.

He said, "Lead the way."

The soldiers bowed and said, "Yes, sir!"

Then, led by the strategists, Yu Que boarded the Rakshasa-headed boat and slowly arrived at the Zhenjun Island ferry.

Upon arriving at the ferry crossing, he did not tie the lead boat to the dock, but instead attempted to continue by boat to the island to visit the old general.

Only after the soldiers' urgent persuasion did he abandon this highly disrespectful plan.

However, Yu Que still did not completely heed the advice of the others. After disembarking, he did not release Gong Dongxue and the others, but instead reached out and grabbed them.

The Rakshasa-headed ship then spun around and shrank to the size of an infant's head, hovering beside him.

The accompanying soldiers and the nearby immortals were astonished upon seeing this, realizing that Yu Que's treasure was no ordinary item.

"First, he possesses powerful true fire capable of burning three immortals to death in one go, and then he has such a miraculous hidden weapon... This true disciple of Huangshan should not be underestimated!"

"Tsk tsk, with so many tricks up his sleeve, no wonder he dares to defy Lord Tiance."

When the soldiers saw that Yu Que had turned the huge warship into a tiny skull, they hesitated to speak, but then stopped arguing and chose to lead the way silently.

Before long, Yu Que passed through the Tian Ce Army's camp and arrived at the Zhen Hai Army's location.

After being relayed through layers of reports, he arrived at a simple tent, led by a young general, and saw the ruler of Zhenjun Island—the Great General Zhenhai.

The other person was casually sitting on the bed with their legs propped up, and a chessboard was placed on the bed.

Yu Que bowed respectfully, saying, "This humble student, Yu Que, greets the Great General."

The old general's hair was gray, but his face was not withered at all. Instead, he had a youthful appearance despite his white hair. He was also easygoing and waved to Yu Que.

The opponent glanced at the remaining gap, then continued staring at the chessboard, saying:

"It's nothing. I called you over to see what kind of young man you are and to give you some support."

The old general sighed, threw the chess piece in his hand onto the board, and said:
"It's only been half a year, and the little guys on the island have either been scared out of their wits or have been too wise. They've managed to make the island's thousands of troops seem vibrant, but in reality, they're like a stagnant pool. What a pity."

Upon hearing the old general's words, Yu Que's mind raced, and he vaguely sensed that the general's words were directed at Lord Tiance...

"Could it be that this person's relationship with Tian Ce Jun is not as amicable as rumored?" Yu Que suddenly realized. "That's right. One of them is old and frail, while the other is young. The old general hasn't retired yet, but the young general has already taken the stage. It's inevitable that there will be some friction."

However, after thinking about it carefully, he immediately realized that even if the two people had some friction, it didn't necessarily mean they would "fight to the death".

Once someone dares to interfere, they often become a tool for veterans to train and discipline younger players. Afterwards, they might even take the initiative to discard the tool in order to appease the younger players.

Thinking about all this, Yu Que felt that he should never have returned to Zhenjun Island.

He couldn't be bothered with the dirty business on Zhenjun Island.

as predicted.

Just as he had guessed, the old general nodded secretly, then looked up at Yu Que with a gentle smile on his face:

"You're a good kid. You've caused quite a stir on both of your trips to the island."

Such soldiers possess true fighting spirit!

The other party praised Yu Que, and then said to the young guard beside him:

“Give the Huangshan Army a banner, so that they will no longer be subject to the military orders on the island, and can also establish their own army in times of war.”

The young guard immediately responded, "Yes, sir."

Soon, a golden banner appeared in front of Yu Que, bearing the words "Huangshan". It was filled with dragon energy and was actually a magic weapon that could be used as the core of a formation to enhance the strength of the soldiers when they formed a formation.

Of course, more importantly, with this banner, unless it is taken away, Yu Que can enter and leave Zhenjun Island on his own without having to report to anyone.

He doesn't need to obey the orders of the Tian Ce Army; he can simply find an excuse to refuse to participate in the so-called island-wide exercises.

Yu Que's eyes lit up with eagerness, and he immediately wanted to take the item.

But he held back and didn't reach out.

Although this item is good, the fact that General Zhenhai gave it to him clearly shows that he wanted to give him a boost, to make the Huangshan Army and the Tiance Army compete, or more accurately, he hoped to provoke the Tiance Army and make the Huangshan Army a stumbling block.

Once Yu Que accepts the offer, it means he has agreed to the matter.

Although he was not afraid of Tian Ce Jun and his subordinates, for him, the better way to deal with the situation was to get out of the vortex rather than to get involved and confront them head-on.

"What, you don't even like this gift?"

The old general shook his head and chuckled when he saw that Yu Que had not accepted the military banner.

The other party must have seen through Yu Que's concerns, because he clapped his hands again, and soon another guard brought a booklet and presented it to Yu Que.

The old general said:

"Since you have taken the credit from those three men, you can exchange it for various supplies and cultivation techniques in the army."

This book, "The True Secret of the Three Killings and Calamity Qi," is something I found for you; it's the most suitable thing for you right now.

Do you dare accept?

Upon hearing this, Yu Que's eyelids twitched, and his gaze became fixed on the thin booklet, his desire growing stronger.
