Chapter 683 - Unexpectedly Smooth
Even though Big Pig was filled with indignation and resentment, there was nowhere for him to vent it. He pranced over to Qi Shengtian’s corpse and ransacked everything he could. When there was nothing left but a pair of undergarments and he felt a bit more comfortable, he finally decided to stop.
Qin Yu allowed this fellow to do as he pleased; he found it hard to show any sort of post-mortem high-mindedness towards Qi Shengtian. Just as he was about to call Big Pig over to leave, his eyes suddenly shrank.
He quickly hurried over and flipped Qi Shengtian’s corpse. As expected, the part of the corpse that touched the ground was beginning to show signs of decay.
The thick flesh and blood goo hadn’t yet dyed the ground red. Rather, it seemed to be eaten up cleanly by some great mouth underneath.
Qin Yu looked at the ground below and his eyebrows furrowed together. He had personally watched as the blood-red tentacles were thoroughly disintegrated in the darkness. But this sight could only mean…that it hadn’t truly died yet!
Even though it hadn’t died it must surely have used up a great deal of strength. Otherwise it was impossible for it to watch helplessly as Qin Yu took away the blood flame fruits.
Qin Yu’s eyes flashed repeatedly. He finally kicked Big Pig and said, “I’m going to give you a chance to get rich. Take a good smell of the ground below and see if any treasure is hidden here.”
Big Pig shook his head again and again, giving Qin Yu a look as if asking if everyone thought he was an idiot. Big Pig had a clear understanding of how terrifying those blood-red tentacles were.
Qin Yu shook his head, “I never thought you would still be so smart.”
Big Pig humphed out loud, revealing a spirited and valorous expression. What ridiculous nonsense, as the mighty king of the pig race, he was impossibly fierce and intelligent!
Qin Yu’s complexion darkened. “If you don’t want to do things the easy way then we can only do things the hard way. Hurry up and search underground.”
Big Pig was left stunned. It seemed he had forgotten that he had become Qin Yu’s blood-raised beast. Facing this order, he had no ability to resist it.
This is tyranny! This is dictatorship over the life of a pig! I protest! I seriously protest!
But if protesting was useful then this world would have long been peaceful and harmonious. Why would there be so many grudges and gratitude, arguments between what is right or wrong?
While Big Pig carried a hundred refusals in his heart, he still put his nose to the ground and started sniffing. This was because it was Qin Yu’s official order and his instincts left him unable to play any tricks. He could only pray that there was nothing below.
But reality was often contrary to expectations. After careful investigation, Big Pig ‘smelled’ a different aura. It smelled of blood but was actually…fragrant.
These were two clearly opposite auras that even stood in conflict with each other. But, they fused together, becoming even more enticing.
Beyond his control, Big Pig began to drool. Then it flowed like a river, splashing down onto the ground.
Awo –
With an excited roar, Big Pig threw himself into the ground. His two tusks stabbed into the earth, swinging around like shovels as he wildly dug down.
Qin Yu discovered something wasn’t right but he didn’t stop anything. He watched as an incredibly deep hole was dug out in an amazingly short period of time.
Moments later, a sharp, panic-filled scream echoed out from the hole. Big Pig flew out, his black steel needle-like fur covered in patches of red that looked like paint.
But if one looked carefully, they would discover that this red color constantly wriggled about, trying to drill into Big Pig’s body.
Unfortunately this pig’s black fur had been tempered multiple times and had even gone through the baptism of the spatial black hole. It had long since become as thick and powerful as a city wall. Even though the strange red liquid wriggled about for a long time it still couldn’t corrode through the fur’s defenses.
Qin Yu thought that things really were as he expected. He shouted out loud, “Stop!”
A formidable suppression that came from the bloodline level caused Big Pig to immediately lose all strength. He plopped to the ground, gasping for breath.
“Master, save me! Master, save me!”
Qin Yu’s lips twitched. He quickly shouted, “You idiot, have you not discovered that it can’t harm you at all!?”
Big Pig was overcome for a moment. Then, as soon as he realized that this was indeed true, he was immediately invigorated as he shouted, “Little thing, do you bully anyone you see? Do you not know how thick the iron of the gate is!?”
Big Pig wildly shook his body with a roll. As he did, the thick red color came rolling off him. It didn’t sink into the soil but quickly converged into one whole.
Then, this thing that seemed like fruit jello flew towards Qi Shengtian’s corpse. Before it could get far, it was crushed by Big Pig’s hoof. Big Pig ginned and said, “Little thing, after harming this pig grandfather and causing me to lose face, don’t think things will end so easily!”
He opened his mouth, about to bite down.
“Close your mouth.” Qin Yu lightly said.
Big Pig’s mouth was less than an inch away from the ‘fruit jello’. He stiffened for a moment and looked up with great difficulty, “Master…I…was too excited…this thing…I’ll hand it over to you…”
Wuwuwu…why must my life be so painstaking. This time it came right near my mouth, I was just this close to eating it!
After being flung to the ground, the ‘fruit jello’ quickly lost its vitality. As if the very air itself was poison, it soon died.
But its death meant that one aspect of the dangerous aura was gone. The smell of blood disappeared, leaving behind only that enticing fragrance.
Qin Yu faintly smiled. “Put it away. We’ll study it again in the future.”
This thing was definitely connected to the terrifying blood-red tentacles from before. Until he could discern exactly what it was, it was impossible to eat it no matter how fragrant it smelled.
He gave a kick to the listless Big Pig, “Let’s go!”
The loud sounds of battle had a high chance of attracting attention. Since he had already obtained the benefits he wanted in coming here, it was best to leave as soon as possible. ‘Fearing changes that came late’ wasn’t just an expression. Through the countless years, innumerable previous generations had paid their life and blood to discover the truth behind this.
After cleaning up the scene a little, Qin Yu quickly started to walk out from the valley. He soon saw the female cultivator who was stranded in the array formation before.
It was just that her current condition was much worse than expected. Her body was covered in cuts, and blood nearly soaked her clothes.
Qin Yu soon realized why she was in such a pitiful state. After Qi Shengtian died, the power he thrust into the female cultivator’s body dispersed, leaving her unable to withstand the impact of magic power.
He rubbed his nose. Considering all things, he had some degree of responsibility in this matter.
But the one who plotted against this female cultivator wasn’t him, nor was he the one who brought her into this deathtrap of a natural array formation. He had no need to provoke unnecessary troubles for himself.
Moreover, Qin Yu couldn’t expose his current status. It would be best for him if no one knew he came to this mountain valley today.
As a human, one needed to have a bottom line. But, she was neither friend nor family and Qin Yu didn’t want to place himself in a needlessly dangerous situation. He closed his eyes and when he opened them again he continued to walk out from the valley once more, as if he never saw this female cultivator who was on the verge of death.
But then Big Pug suddenly stopped. His eyes stared tightly at the female cultivator within the array formation and he said, “Master, as a great monster on the verge of evolution, I am filled with curiosity towards human females. Since she is about to die soon, how about letting me take her out so I can study the differences between the women of my pig race and the women of humanity. I ask master to consent!”
Qin Yu’s eyes flashed as he looked at the female cultivator. He nodded and said, “Alright.”
“I praise you, my most benevolent master!” Big Pig impatiently rushed into the array formation like a bolt of black lightning. The heaven and earth spiritual strength here had already been exhausted, so even though a few attacks rained down on his body, there wasn’t any pain at all.
Hehehehe, little young beauty, this pig grandfather is here!
Mu Xuan had used up all her strength and because she had lost too much blood, her field of vision flashed black. So when she suddenly saw a wild pig rushing towards her with such a wretched gaze in its eyes, a horrifying thought appeared in her mind and she fainted.
Big Pig was stunned. Looking at the fainted Mu Xuan, 10,000 horses rampaged through his heart.
Hey, what is the meaning of this? Just what is the meaning of this? After seeing the handsome and heroic king of the pig race, you were actually scared to the point of fainting?
Are you saying that I am a clown? Or I am so ugly that I am scary? Haha…hahaha….let alone anyone else, I especially cannot endure this!
“Save her. What are you waiting for?” Qin Yu’s voice sounded out.
Big Pig clenched his teeth. He had business to take care of right now. He couldn’t expose himself. In the future, he would train this little girl well so that she would become his most supportive and loyal maid!
Placing Mu Xuan on his back, Big Pig hopped back out. With an impatient expression he said, “Master, please wait a moment. I will be fast!”
Although these words were a great loss of face, when it came to one’s own interests, what was the use of face?
“Hold on.” Qin Yu reached out a hand and smiled, saying, “This isn’t a good place to stay around in. Let’s bring her out first.”
Big Pig couldn’t oppose this logic. He could only hollowly laugh and commend his master’s wisdom.
Buzz –
As they left the mountain valley the ant swarm came and picked up the two people and one pig, rapidly flying away.
Because the process of obtaining the blood flame fruits was unexpectedly smooth, Qin Yu had a great deal of time left over. After the ant swarm flew a relatively safe distance away, they landed back down.
“Master, do you need to inspect the blood flame fruits? I will take them out right now. Don’t worry, I understand the rules. I will take this woman away immediately. You have no need to worry, I will be waiting for you outside.”
Outside a cave entrance, Big Pig had a very understanding and sensible expression.
Qin Yu faintly smiled. “Is that so? It looks like you are very thirsty, but all you thirst for is this woman’s body, right? If so, then you shouldn’t be interested in the items on her body. Just leave them to me.”
Big Pig: …
What are you doing! Qin Yu, what are you doing!?
Can we please follow the script just once? Why must you be like this every time! Every time you must seize the food from the pig’s mouth. This is the third time! The third time! Do you really think I won’t go crazy!?
Qin Yu squinted his eyes and stared at the raging Big Pig. He said, “What, do you have an opinion?”
“I do…” Big Pig erupted in anger. But when he saw Qin Yu’s eyes, it was like a bucket of cold water was tossed over him. His voice fell and he quietly said, “…I have no opinion! Master, you are the greatest! Do whatever you want to do; I will follow your will.”
Qin Yu nodded in satisfaction, “Then take off the things on her body.”
Without any refusal, even though Big Pig was in great inner anguish, he calmly took off her magic tools and placed them on the ground. Ring, pearl ornament, necklace…
When he took off the bracelet that seemed to flow with starlight, Qin Yu discovered that Big Pig’s hooves were trembling and his lips were twitching.
This was it! Without giving Big Pig a chance to do anything, Qin Yu bent over and took the bracelet away. He lightly said, “This thing is a bit interesting.”
He indeed discovered that Big Pig’s expression was like dying embers. Big Pig stiffly nodded.
Qin Yu’s happiness was even greater. He looked earnestly at this bracelet. Just what was so unusual about it that it could arouse Big Pig’s interest?
