The Prodigal Son

Qin Yu bluntly told Nan Que'er the news that Fan Bing had died from vomiting blood.

"real?"

Nan Que'er suddenly raised her voice.

"Absolutely true!"

Qin Yu gave an affirmative answer.

Where is his body?

Nan Que'er's breathing quickened as she eagerly pressed for more information.

"What, you want to desecrate a corpse?"

This woman doesn't seem like a good person!

"right!"

Nan Que'er gritted her teeth. "If I could, I would tear this beast to pieces!"

When Fan Bing was mentioned, a fierce glint appeared in Nan Que'er's eyes.

Like a ferocious beast that will devour anyone it chooses.

"Then you might be disappointed."

Qin Yu said helplessly, "According to the information I received, Fan Bing's body was taken away by the old woman beside him."

"Grandma Sang?" Nan Que'er's eyes flashed with a cold light.

"Yes, that's her!"

Qin Yu replied, "This information was obtained from the deserters around Fan Bing, so it should be correct."

Nan Que'er lowered her head, her delicate body trembling uncontrollably.

The scene of her parents leading their people in a desperate resistance, only to be ruthlessly slaughtered by Sangpo and Fanbing's henchmen, flashed through her mind again.

Whenever she thought of that scene, she wished she could tear Fan Bing to pieces.

After a long while, Nan Que'er composed herself, raised her head again, and said, "I'll give you a gift too!"

"Oh?"

Qin Yu became interested. "What? You met?"

"A kind reminder."

Nan Que'er said seriously, "Based on my understanding of Granny Sang, she will most likely assassinate you! She's a ninth-realm expert, so you need to be careful, and it's best not to be alone!"

"Assassinate me?"

Qin Yu's face darkened.

"right!"

Nan Que'er nodded. "Fan Bing and Granny Sang are like mother and son. You ruined Fan Bing's great cause of restoring his kingdom with your water attack. Given that old hag's temper, she'll most likely want to use your head as a sacrifice to Fan Bing!"

Hearing Nan Que'er's words, Qin Yu couldn't help but feel secretly depressed.

Screw him!

It's somewhat plausible that the Northern Qi sent someone to assassinate him.

But why would this old hag try to assassinate me?

The attack on the Holy Fire Cult was ordered by the female demon.

If you're so capable, go to the capital and assassinate the female demon!

Xu Wan glanced at Qin Yu, then quickly asked Nan Que'er, "Can you draw that old woman's appearance?"

Nan Que'er gently shook her head, "If I saw her, I could recognize her! But asking me to draw her appearance is really a bit difficult for me."

Hearing Nan Que'er's words, Xu Wan couldn't help but feel secretly disappointed.

"fine!"

Qin Yu regained his optimism and said nonchalantly, "Come on if you want! You're just here to get yourself killed."

A true warrior dares to face a bleak life and to confront the dripping blood.

Isn't it just an assassination?

It's not like I haven't been assassinated before!

He had three ninth-realm experts protecting him.

What's there to be afraid of!

"Don't act like nothing happened!"

Xu Wan glared at Qin Yu: "Even if you have experts protecting you, you still need to be careful! As the saying goes, it's not the thief you should fear, but the one who's eyeing you!"

Being targeted by a ninth-realm expert is not a good thing.

"Uh-huh."

Qin Yu nodded casually.

Afterwards, the two chatted with Nan Que'er for a while.

After leaving Nan Que'er, Qin Yu headed straight for the place where Gui San and Gui Si lived.

Now everyone knows they exist, and they no longer hide.

Seeing Qin Yu approaching, Gui Si's sharp gaze suddenly swept over him, "Haven't you had enough yet?"

As he spoke, Gui Si revealed his legs again.

"No, no!"

Qin Yu quickly stopped Gui Si, "I have something important to tell you!"

"What is it?"

Gui San picked up the conversation and looked at him with a questioning gaze.

Qin Yu chuckled, "I just got word that the old woman next to Fan Bing might try to assassinate me! I'm terrified of death, so you two have to protect me well! It'd be best to stay hidden like before and catch her off guard!"

A fierce glint flashed in Gui Si's eyes. "You think we're your lackeys, to be bossed around like this?"

"..."

Qin Yu remained silent.

Don't they have any professional ethics?

"Alright, we understand!"

Gui San waved his hand lightly, "You'd better get lost! Otherwise, we'll be itching to beat you up again!"

"Then you two should get some rest!"

Qin Yu immediately took off running.

I'll definitely have to ask the old man where he found these two; they have terrible tempers!

Just as Qin Yu was secretly complaining, Xu Wan approached him again, "I just thought of a way that might turn the tables..."

Xu Wan then told Qin Yu her solution.

After hearing Xu Wan's words, Qin Yu couldn't help but look at her with a strange expression.

Xu Wan felt extremely uncomfortable under Qin Yu's gaze, and glared back fiercely, "What are you looking at? If you don't like it, just pretend I didn't say anything!"

Qin Yu looked Xu Wan up and down, a mischievous grin on his face, and asked, "So, you're not trying to hit on me, are you?"

"Pick you up? What do you mean?" Xu Wan was confused.

"You're just trying to seduce me!"

Qin Yu had barely finished speaking when Xu Wan kicked him...

……

Yanshan.

The stronghold of the Holy Fire Cult.

When Granny Sang brought Zhao Yi's body back to the Holy Fire Cult's stronghold, she only saw corpses scattered all over the ground.

None of Nan Que'er's clansmen have disappeared.

Seeing the scene before her, Sangpo was filled with rage.

It's obvious that Nan Que'er betrayed the location of their lair and led the experts of Da Ning to massacre them and rescue her people!

"You bitch!"

Enraged, Granny Sang slammed her palm heavily against a large tree beside her.

boom!

The power of the sangpo penetrated the trunk of the tree, and the tree snapped in two.

We shouldn't have spared that little bitch's life in the first place!

Just as Granny Sang was breathing heavily with anger, one of Fan Bing's personal guards ran over quickly, "Granny Sang, we've found out!"

Granny Sang shuddered, her face frosty as she demanded, "Who?"

"It's a man named Qin Yu!"

The guard gritted his teeth and replied, "I've heard that this man is the grandson of Duke Qin Fumeng of Wei, and he holds a gold medal bestowed by the Emperor of Ningguo. Many people call him the Holy Envoy! He's also the commander-in-chief of the enemy army, and he led his troops yesterday..."

"etc!"

Granny Sang abruptly interrupted him, "You're saying the person who came up with the water attack plan is Qin Fumeng's grandson?"

"right!"

The guard nodded emphatically.

Upon receiving an affirmative answer, Sangpo immediately frowned.

She had heard of Qin Yu!

Didn't Zhao Yi want to use Zhao Luan to kill Qin Fumeng, so that Qin Fumeng would hate Zhao Luan?

Isn't Qin Yu a good-for-nothing who only knows how to eat, drink, gamble, and whore?

How could he possibly have come up with a plan to attack with water?

He even became a holy envoy?

"Was there a mistake in the query?"

Granny Sang glanced coldly at the guards, "Or perhaps someone else came up with the water-based poison scheme, and it was attributed to him?"

"this……"

The guard was speechless. After a moment's hesitation, he said cautiously, "This is information we obtained from the Chenzhou garrison. Moreover, if the water attack and poison plan wasn't Qin Yu's idea, Zhao Luan probably wouldn't have let him take command."

"That makes sense!"

A cold glint flashed in Granny Sang's eyes. "Since that good-for-nothing Zhao Yi didn't take this little beast's life, then leave him to me!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Granny Sang suddenly struck the guard's face without warning.

This sudden turn of events completely terrified the other guards.

The group stared blankly at Granny Sang, completely bewildered as to why she had killed this person.

They even forgot to run away.

"This old woman is afraid you might betray us and let the traitors know where the Crown Prince is buried!"

Granny Sang looked at them expressionlessly, "You all go to the underworld to keep the Crown Prince company! After this old woman has fulfilled the Crown Prince's wish, I will also go to the underworld to keep him company!"

To be buried alive with one's spouse!

Hearing what Granny Sang said, the group finally realized what was going on.

Just as they were about to escape, Granny Sang appeared in a flash.

bang bang bang...

Granny Sang unleashed several consecutive palm strikes, killing them all instantly.

Sangpo numbly glanced at the corpse on the ground, picked up Fan Bing's body, and slowly walked towards the altar in the center of the Holy Fire Sect's stronghold.

They have completely lost hope of restoring their country!

Traitors are most likely to appear at times like these!

Now, she trusts no one but herself!

The location of the Crown Prince's burial place must never be revealed to anyone else!

Otherwise, if someone were to rebel for wealth and glory, even after the Crown Prince's death, there would be no peace!
