"As the developer of the Dual-Handed Technique, you should be aware of the problems with the Eight Extraordinary Techniques. I cannot use this ability right now."

Qu Tong took a deep breath, pondered for a moment, and then said, "I have a way to solve this problem."

As soon as she finished speaking, a deep laugh came from the other end of the phone: "Heh, you think you can solve it? If you could solve this problem, there wouldn't be such a thing as the Celestial Master's Decree."

"The Eight Extraordinary Techniques should never have appeared! If we delve any deeper, we will all be sinners. Can't you see that?"

Upon hearing this, Qu Tong's eyes gleamed even brighter.

She gritted her teeth and said, "Gu Qiting, you want me to give up?!"

"Impossible! I must avenge myself on those who hunted us down back then, even if it means becoming a sinner for all time!!"

Chapter 233 Qu Tong

The laughter on the other end of the phone suddenly stopped, seemingly stunned by Qu Tong's cold and resolute words.

For a moment, only silence lingered between the two.

After a long silence, the other person finally spoke, their voice revealing a deep sense of helplessness:

“Duanmu Ying, I know you harbor deep hatred, but some things are indeed beyond our control.”

"The Eight Extraordinary Techniques are derived from the power of demons. If we continue to indulge in them, it will only lead to greater disasters."

Qu Tong's lips curled into a cold smile, her eyes flashing with disdain: "Disaster? Hmph, so what? When they were hunting us down and driving us into a corner, did they ever think about the retribution they would face today?"

"I'm just giving them a taste of their own medicine. If you're scared, then leave. I won't stop you."

She paused, a hint of coldness in her voice: "Also, don't call me by that name anymore! Duanmu Ying is dead. I am Qu Tong now."

The other person seemed to sigh softly, their voice carrying a hint of weariness:

"Qu Tong, you have really changed. You used to have the world in your heart and were determined to cure all diseases in the world. But now you are driven by hatred and have embarked on this path of no return."

"A road of no return?" Qu Tong sneered.

"So what? Do you know how I've survived all these years?"

"Every time I close my eyes, all I see are the faces of those pursuers, the beastly faces of the Lü family! I wish I could tear them to pieces and grind their bones to dust!"

Her voice revealed deep hatred and endless exhaustion:

"You want me to give up? Hmph, I can't do it. No matter what, I will make them pay for what happened back then!"

Silence fell again on the other end of the phone, and one could almost feel Qu Tong's deep-seated hatred and determination.

After a long while, the other person said softly, "Since that's the case, then you'd better take care of yourself. But I hope you understand that some things, once done, cannot be undone. Take care of yourself."

After saying this, the other person fell silent again.

After a long while, his leisurely voice came again: "Ever since the Luo Tian Grand Ceremony began, I have found that I can no longer see the future."

Immediately afterwards, the phone went dead, severing the fragile connection between the two.

Qu Tong's hand holding the phone trembled slightly, her heart filled with a turbulent mix of emotions that she could not calm down.

She knew the other person was right.

But for her, turning back is no longer an option.

Hatred burned like a raging fire, driving her further and further down this path filled with bloodshed and revenge.

"No matter what, I will make those people pay the price for what happened back then!"

Qu Tong made a vow in her heart again, and the firm light in her eyes shone brighter than ever before.

She seemed to have already seen the end of her revenge, where she found the liberation and peace she had longed for.

Suddenly, the image of a girl flashed through her mind, a figure that was both so familiar and so distant.

Qu Tong's lips curled up slightly, revealing a complex smile:

"Gu Jiting, Gu Jiting, you pride yourself on being able to see through everything, but you probably never imagined the inside story of how Feng Baobao was created back then, did you?"

She gently shook her head, as if mocking the world's fickleness and absurdity:

"That child, she is the devil. All the secrets are hidden within her, and all the pieces of the puzzle have already been put together."

Then, a hint of respect and complexity flashed in Qu Tong's eyes: "Wugensheng, as expected of Wugensheng. If he hadn't discovered the trick, the demon would have been reborn in another body long ago. Shenmingling, amazing!"

She took a deep breath, her eyes gleaming with a burning light: "Back then, Wugensheng only stole three pieces of the puzzle: the Qi Body Source Flow, the Dual-Hand Technique, and the Great Luo Cave Observation. As long as I get my hands on the key to the Qi Body Source Flow, everything will be over!"

Suddenly, as if she remembered something important, a sense of unease welled up inside her.

She stood up, went outside, and called her subordinates, her voice filled with unprecedented urgency: "Send more men! We must rescue Ma Hongxian!"

After giving her orders to her subordinates, she silently prayed, "The cultivation furnace isn't finished yet; he can't die, otherwise how can I seize the demon's power?"

After making all these arrangements, Qu Tong's heart finally calmed down a little.

All her years of patience, all her dormancy and waiting, were for the sake of cultivating the body furnace and the source of Qi.

Now that both goals are within her sight and within reach, she naturally doesn't want any unexpected events to occur.

However, she thought again that if something went wrong, it wouldn't really matter.

Her ultimate goal is revenge, and as long as she can achieve that goal, the process is not important.

If things truly reach a point where all hope seems lost, she will not hesitate to revive the demons and perish together with the entire world.

Anyway, she had long been tired of this world full of pain and hatred, and death was a relief for her.

However, Qu Tong also knew clearly that the joy of taking revenge with her own hands would be far greater than the joy of dying together.

Therefore, she would not choose to take that step unless absolutely necessary.

Simply put, she has gone mad, but not completely insane.

At this very moment, Xingliu's plan was still proceeding in an orderly manner.

After finding Xingliu and Chen Duo, Fu Rong and the others immediately took action to kidnap them in exchange for Ma Hongxian.

However, the harsh reality was that they were easily defeated by the Starflow.

Before they could even make a move, Xingliu froze them in place, unable to move.

Fu Rong looked at the handsome man in front of her with mixed feelings, and deep down she felt an urge to fall in love again.

However, when she thought of the mountain of bills and Chen Duo nestled beside Xingliu, she immediately dismissed the idea.

After all, all the boyfriends she had dated were scumbags, which made her extremely wary of dating.

Unlike Fu Rong, who is capable of having wild thoughts, Zhao Guizhen is different.

He was sweating profusely as he looked at Xingliu, especially when he sensed the intense killing intent emanating from Xingliu.

He had been arrogant and looked down on the temporary workers, but he never expected to be defeated in a single encounter.

What terrified him even more was that, for some reason, Xingliu seemed to harbor a particular murderous intent towards him.

This feeling made him feel as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, as if he were being watched by the Grim Reaper.

He forced a smile, trying to ease the suffocatingly tense atmosphere:

"I don't know where I have offended you, sir. If there is any misunderstanding, please enlighten me."

Chapter 234 Rant

Xingliu smiled slightly and shook his head gently, as if denying some of Zhao Guizhen's conjecture.

This relieved Zhao Guizhen slightly, as he thought that Xingliu didn't really harbor any hostility towards him.

However, Xingliu's next words plunged him into an icy abyss.

"Actually, there's no particular reason. I just find what you've been doing displeasing. And killing you is a piece of cake for me."

Xingliu said it casually, his tone as if he were talking about a trivial matter.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Guizhen's pupils suddenly contracted, and a surge of unease welled up within him, almost overwhelming him.

He wanted to beg for mercy, but to his horror he found that he didn't even have the strength to open his mouth, as if he were imprisoned by an invisible force.

Immediately afterwards, the world before his eyes suddenly blurred, as if he had been forcibly pulled into a terrifying hell by some force.

Thus, following Wang Bing, Zhao Guizhen also experienced the joy of the eighteenth level.

Soon, his eyes became empty and lifeless, and the breath of life quickly dissipated.

With his death, the evil cultivation technique he practiced, "Seven Fiends Gathering Body," was naturally dispelled.

The souls of the seven children drifted out of Zhao Guizhen's body.

As soon as they appeared, they angrily rushed towards Zhao Guizhen's corpse, trying to avenge themselves.

However, they are only in a spirit state and cannot have any impact on the real world.

After several attempts, they reluctantly gave up.

The souls of these children turned to the star, bowing in gratitude.

Although they could not express it in words, their eyes were filled with gratitude and respect.

Then, they began to gradually dissipate.

With a gentle wave of his hand, Xingliu revealed the rules of reincarnation.

Through his power, these children will be reborn into a better life and live a happy life.

All these wondrous and sacred scenes unfold silently at the level of the soul, and are naturally invisible and intangible to the mortal eyes of this world.

Fu Rong and the others only saw Zhao Guizhen's body suddenly stiffen and fall down, his life force vanishing instantly, but they didn't understand why.

But all of this was like a bucket of cold water poured over their heads, instantly cooling them down as they were initially filled with enthusiasm and ready to bravely rescue Ma Hongxian.

As Xingliu's gaze slowly turned to them, they unconsciously lowered their heads, avoiding those eyes that seemed to see through everything.

Xingliu chuckled and said, "Everyone, don't be nervous. This is a society governed by law. I won't do anything to you."

Upon hearing this, Fu Rong couldn't help but think to herself: If you said it again while looking at Zhao Guizhen's corpse, I would believe you.

However, on the surface, she nodded repeatedly in agreement with Xingliu's words, indicating that she believed him without a doubt.

Xingliu seemed to read their minds and continued, "Zhao Guizhen had always been in poor health, so his sudden death was to be expected. Do I look like I'm about to do something?"

Fu Rong thought about it and realized that it was true; Xing Liu hadn't touched Zhao Guizhen at all from beginning to end.

So she started to wonder if she was overthinking things... what a load of rubbish.
