Chapter 228 Cut Off One’s Heart and Die without Worry!
"I lost……"
Qi Wuyou lay on his back, his body covered with dense sword marks, his eyes were empty, and he rarely begged for mercy.
"I underestimated the heroes of the world!"
He struggled to get up, his eyes were bitter, but there was no trace of unwillingness.
Whether it was in terms of ingenuity or combat prowess, Qi Wuyou's pride as a young master from an aristocratic family was crushed by Lin Bei, a casual cultivator.
First he became a laughing stock, and now he lost to a being he despised. Qi Wuyou was worried about life and death and had no idea of living anymore.
Looking at the lifeless Qi Wuyou, Lin Bei's eyes remained calm and he walked towards him.
However, before he could get close, Qi Wuyou stretched out his hand to stop him and said, "Wait a minute!"
"Do you have any tricks up your sleeve?"
Lin Bei's eyes became wary, but he was not afraid in his heart.
Facing Qi Wuyou, who had basically lost his combat power, Lin Bei only had some minor injuries, and was still being slowly repaired and treated by the spiritual ginseng essence. Most of his combat power was still retained, which was enough to deal with any crisis!
"Trick?"
Qi Wuyou smiled bitterly and sighed, but shook his head. Instead, a hint of arrogance appeared on his face: "I will take my own life!"
After saying that, the remaining energy and blood in his body suddenly rushed towards his heart!
Boom!
Qi Wuyou's body trembled, his pupils widened, but there was a look of relief on his face.
puff!
With a mouthful of scarlet blood spraying into the air, Qi Wuyou threw his head back and fell heavily.
"I thought you were just a complete noble idiot, but I didn't expect you would have the courage to face your final death!"
Lin Bei walked to Qi Wuyou and stood in front of him. He checked and found that Qi Wuyou was indeed dead.
Qi Wuyou still had a proud expression until his death, maintaining the dignity of his noble family.
This also made Lin Bei take a high look at him.
Originally, he thought Qi Wuyou was a idiot, but with a casual plan, he was beaten and humiliated by the Bai family and became a laughing stock in the world.
Although his strength was somewhat beyond Lin Bei's expectations, with the power of his bloodline, he still failed to show the strength to enter the Hidden Dragon List.
Its strength can only temporarily compete with the ninth level of Dragon Vein.
If Lin Bei were to comment, he would still inevitably have the blood of a martial saint, but it would end up being wasted.
What really caught Lin Bei's eyes was the courage to cut off one's heart before death and face death calmly!
Perhaps, only this courage is the most rare and valuable thing in Qi Wuyou!
Lin Bei thought as he fumbled for some items from his body.
"Is this... a storage ring?"
Lin Bei didn't find many valuable things, but he asked him to find a ring on Qi Wuyou's finger.
He could easily tell that this ring was a storage ring.
"This thing won't leave any tracking means..."
Lin Bei frowned in thought, wrapped the ring with a handkerchief, and took it off Qi Wuyou's finger to prevent it from contaminating his skin.
"It can't be opened! Maybe there is a way to identify the owner by dripping blood..."
After trying it for a while, Lin Bei shook his head.
The storage ring was an unexpected gain, it was worth a lot of money, and there was no telling how many valuable things were hidden in it.
But as the young prince of Prince Qi's palace, he has too much power behind him. It is estimated that at least a grand master is in charge.
Lin Bei thought about it and decided not to rely on brute force for the time being, but to forcefully break open the storage ring.
If this thing really has any tracking method, then he will probably be stained with the mark and be hunted down by Prince Qi's Mansion.
It is still necessary to be cautious!
Wrapping it in a handkerchief, Lin Bei stuffed it into his arms.
He glanced at the dead Qi Wuyou, and the sword in his hand slid hard on the ground.
Stab——
Sparks flew everywhere, instantly igniting the ground covered with alcohol.
The light blue flames were like a tide, swallowing up in all directions, wrapping the sawdust furniture mixed with wine, and in the blink of an eye they turned into red flames, burning blazingly!
Lin Bei walked out of the flames, as if he had just completed a sinful killing.
Looking back, he saw thick smoke billowing behind him, mixed with blazing flames, rising into the sky, licking the black sky.
Lin Bei did not stop, his figure disappeared into the night and headed into the distance.
When he was completely far away, he heard noisy voices one after another, mixed in with the messy and rapid footsteps, rushing to the scene of the crime.
In the house, a maid who was drugged by Lin Bei was the first to be awakened by the flames. When she saw the scene of flames rising into the sky, her pretty face turned pale and she screamed: "She's gone!"
As she screamed, the sound of "water flowing" began to resound, echoing in the silent night.
Then, the people who came to put out the fire began their busy fire-fighting work.
…
Lin Bei wandered around the city, found an abandoned house, and dug a deep hole under an old locust tree.
Then, he took out the storage ring wrapped in a handkerchief from his arms, buried it in it, filled it with soil, and covered the traces with fallen leaves.
"Done!"
Lin Bei clapped his hands and showed a satisfied smile: "In this way, it will not be tracked. When the limelight passes, if it has not been discovered, I will just dig it out."
Lin Bei didn't know if killing Qi Wuyou would leave any mark, but he didn't feel any strange way.
When he killed Qi Wuyou, he didn't know that the opponent was a disciple of a family with the power of blood. His knowledge of Qi Wuyou's palace was limited to the prince's palace. He had a high status and had many master-level combat powers.
When Qi Wuyou revealed the power of his bloodline, Lin Bei could no longer retreat and had to kill him.
At that time, he didn't care whether there would be any tracking marks or aura contaminating him after Qi Wuyou's death.
Anyway, if you don't kill him, you will definitely offend Prince Qi's Mansion, but if you kill him, you may be able to avoid it.
However, at the moment, Lin Bei did not notice that he was contaminated with abnormal aura or brand, so when faced with this storage ring that might carry aura brand, there was no need to break it.
It is irrational to try with a gambling mentality.
Excessive greed can sometimes cost you your life.
Lin Bei took another look at this place, kept the location in his mind, and then returned to the residence arranged for him by the Nangong family in the dark.
…
The next day, the news that the young prince of Prince Qi's mansion was buried in a sea of fire spread throughout Linjiang County.
"Hey, have you heard that the young prince of Prince Qi's Mansion was burned to death!"
"I've heard it for a long time. Rumors are just rumors. The young prince of Qi Palace, a master of the eighth level of Dragon Vein Realm, was actually burned to death by fire! It's so false!"
"It's really unbelievable. Although the flames are fierce, as an eighth-level Dragon Vein warrior, as long as he is not surrounded by a sea of fire, he should be able to escape easily."
"That's not necessarily true. I heard that the young prince of Qi Palace went to Bai's house yesterday and returned home seriously injured! Maybe he was seriously injured and couldn't move, so he died in the sea of fire."
"It's interesting. I was beaten and driven out by the Bai family yesterday, and died in a sea of fire that night. Don't you think there are many coincidences?"
"Shh, you're risking your life by riding a horse! Are we allowed to comment on the Bai family's affairs?"
"That's right. Just keep your voice down and change the topic. Everyone is well aware of this matter."
…
The teahouse and wine shop were full of diners as always, talking about the big and small things that had happened recently.
The most eye-catching thing was Qi Wuyou's death.
Yesterday, Qi Wuyou went to the Bai family. No one knew what he was doing there. They only knew that he was driven out in a panic, with injuries on his body, and even his guards were dead.
Immediately afterwards, a fire broke out in the house where Qi Wuyou lived that night.
Qi Wuyou himself even died in the sea of fire.
The coincidence made everyone smile with unknown meaning.
