Chapter 485: This Item And I Are Destined For Each Other
“What kind of saber intent is this? Vicious, ruthless, bloodthirsty. Only a saber that had slaughtered thousands, no, tens of thousands of people could produce such an aura. Could it be... the Slaughterer of Ten Thousand? That’s Zhou Hengshan’s Strange Artifact, and Zhou Hengshan happens to be a Grandmaster. Did he take a hit from Zhou Hengshan?”
“Besides that, there’s a cold, yin energy that reminds me of the Black Sky Divine Palm. It’s the signature martial art of the Black Sky Divine Palace, and it can only be learned by a true disciple. If I remember correctly, Zhou Hengshan has a subordinate who’s a member of the Black Sky Divine Palace.”
“If I remember correctly, this guy is the Patrolman of Luo Shui. The Hidden Dragon Meet is being held in Tian Yong right now, and there’s a high chance he was a participant. The Hengshan Army is Tian Yong’s main military force, so that’s a match. Did he really provoke Zhou Hengshan?”
“Hmm, knowing how good this guy is at drawing trouble, it’s definitely not out of the realm of possibility. I wonder what happened to him? Whatever it was, it must be so bad that even my ridiculous encounter with the Earthly Sovereign’s Coffin looks paltry in comparison. That makes me feel so much better.”
Yi Pin indulged in schadenfreude for a moment before sighing, “Still, to survive Zhou Hengshan as a late-stage Spirit Purifier... youngsters these days are seriously something.”
Ye Qing had no idea that a certain Taoist had almost figured out the whole truth after he drove out a sliver of Zhou Hengshan’s saber intent and the Black Sky Divine Palm’s palm force from his body. He was too busy healing his broken body after all. After the successful attempt, he opened his mouth and inhaled the second wisp of Profound Yellow Qi into his stomach as well.
The possibilities were endless when the Profound Yellow Qi resided in one’s stomach. As vast, thick energy began circulating inside his body once more, the vicious, gloomy energies writhing inside the room were destroyed, and Ye Qing shone like a yellow sun.

Bang!
About two hours later, the door was suddenly flung open by a brawny, violent-looking man. The first thing he did was to yell at Yi Pin, “Where is your Profound Yellow Qi, Taoist?!”
Then, he noticed that there was a second person inside the room, and he was shining like a mini sun. His eyes bulged with surprise as he questioned, “What the hell’s going on here? Where is the Profound Yellow Qi?”
Cowering at a corner, Yi Pin didn’t hesitate to put Ye Qing in harm’s way immediately. “What else? I got robbed. If you want the Profound Yellow Qi, then go get him. I’ve got nothing for you.”
I don’t have your Profound Yellow Qi~
And I ain’t giving you my life~
If you want the Profound Yellow Qi~
Then go fuck up the guy who fucked me over~
Whatever happens next is between you~ and him~
“I did?” Ye Qing glanced at the lifeless Han Meng. “Are you sure?”
“I’m not talking about him, I’m talking about his patron!”
Yi Pin explained as quickly as he could, “This guy is a servant of the Earthly Sovereign Hall’s descendant I told you before, Yue Juejiang. He’s here to collect the Profound Yellow Qi for him.”
In Yi Pin’s imagination, Ye Qing was supposed to reveal the fact that he was a Half-Step Spirit Master and scare off Han Meng. When Han Meng brought the news back to his master, Yue Juejiang, Sun Xuanzhen and Huo Linglong would have no choice but to accept this because fighting Ye Qing wasn’t worth the two wisps of Profound Yellow Qi.
This was also why he didn’t stop Ye Qing from refining the Profound Yellow Qi earlier. The stronger Ye Qing was, the safer he would be.
However, Ye Qing went off script and killed Han Meng right from the get go. Now, they had made an enemy of Yue Juejiang.
This was not the plan, dammit!
“He’s the collector?” Ye Qing’s eyes suddenly lit up. “Does that mean he has a lot of Profound Yellow Qi with him right now?”
Yi Pin’s heart skipped a beat. Did I make another mistake?
Ye Qing looked Han Meng up and down a couple times before setting his gaze on a bright yellow calabash on the man’s waist. He grabbed it while asking, “Is this it?”
The bright yellow calabash was barely big enough to fit on a person’s palm, but it was surprisingly heavy. Before Yi Pin could say anything, Ye Qing uncorked the calabash and caused a stream of thick yellow qi to gush out of the opening. The entire room was dyed dark yellow in just the blink of an eye.
“Oh my, five wisps of Profound Yellow Qi?!”
Ye Qing’s eyes shone even brighter than before.
“What are you planning, brother?” Yi Pin gulped.
“Nothing? I just think that these Profound Yellow Qi and I are destined for each other,” Ye Qing replied matter-of-factly.
“Are you seriously going to rob Yue Juejiang?!” Yi Pin exclaimed in shock and horror. Think thrice before you act, brother! Don’t let your greed overcome your good senses!
“Who are you calling a robber? Like I said, these Profound Yellow Qi and I are destined for each other. If that’s not true, then why would they set foot on my doorstep of their own accord?” Ye Qing argued.
Yi Pin: “...” It’s bad enough that you killed the guy and looted his stuff, now you’re going to call it destiny as well? You really are the most shameless person in the world.
