From the moment the Tiger Soul awakened, I became invincible.

Chapter 117 Qiongzhou Island, Liu Yan'er

Qin Wu was unaware of and unable to understand Zhao Longhu's thoughts. However, everyone has their own choices, so he could only express his respect.

"In that case, let's head back to Tianwu Mountain as soon as possible."

Qin Wu spoke directly.

He didn't care about Zhao Longhu's thoughts. As far as he was concerned, things here were over now, and the rest could be dealt with later.

He didn't have much of a relationship with Zhao Longhu, so even if Zhao Longhu willingly died at Liu Yan'er's hands, it wouldn't concern him.

However, after hearing his words, Zhao Longhu suddenly hesitated and said, "Liu Yan'er has most likely gone to the vicinity of Qiongzhou Island. It's not far from here. Do you have time to go there with me?"

Qin Wu shook his head and said, "Senior Brother Zhao, if you've already made up your mind, I wouldn't mind going with you. But you're still undecided. Even if we find her, what then?"

At this point, Qin Wu spoke up again:

"To put it bluntly, Liu Yan'er is trying to kill you today, and she has already caused a lot of trouble. Your indecisiveness will only embolden her."

This time it's you who's being threatened, but next time it might be Tianwu Mountain. What will you do then?

Qin Wu wouldn't mind going with him, but given Zhao Longhu's current intentions, he had no intention of going at all. After all, even if he went and saw Liu Yan'er, it would just be a waste of time.

Upon hearing Qin Wu's words, Zhao Longhu was stunned for a moment, a conflicted look flashing in his eyes.

He was an orphan since childhood and was adopted by Tianwu Mountain. He lived in Tianwu Mountain from a young age, but never formally became a disciple of the sect.

That's precisely why he possessed such strength at such a young age. Although he wasn't a disciple of Tianwu Mountain before, he received nurturing from its resources; Tianwu Mountain was undoubtedly his home. What Qin Wu said at this moment had indeed made him feel somewhat lost.

He himself was not afraid of death, but he could not allow Tianwu Mountain to be threatened because of him.

Liu Yan'er was born into the Three Yin Sect, a notorious demonic sect. Everyone in Qianzhou gritted their teeth when the Three Yin Sect was mentioned.

He had fallen in love with Liu Yan'er at first sight, and he had assumed that Liu Yan'er would feel the same way, but now it seemed that it was just wishful thinking on his part.

It's even possible that all of this was part of Liu Yan'er's plan; otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to set up such an exquisite trap, or even have the three villains of Qianzhou come to intercept and kill her.

If it weren't for Qin Wu, he would probably be a corpse by now. Under these circumstances, his mind became clearer.

"Junior Brother Qin, I still want to go see Liu Yan'er. I'll ask her what she thinks then, and at the same time, retrieve that Xuan Yin Pearl."

The Mysterious Yin Pearl has the effect of calming the mind and eyes, and stabilizing the spirit and soul. More importantly, it contains powerful energy that is of great help to cultivation. Once absorbed, it can help one break through quickly and has an excellent effect on opening the twelve acupoints.

However, the power contained in the Xuan Yin Pearl is too cold and yin, so it may have a significant impact on a person's body and will require gradual adjustment.

But compared to its breakthrough effect, this side effect is naturally insignificant. After retrieving the pearl, the Xuan Yin Pearl will serve as a token of gratitude for your companionship on this trip, Junior Brother.

Perhaps this can accelerate the opening of your twelve acupoints. I only hope that you will give me the opportunity to speak with her then. If she truly threatens Tianwu Mountain, I will show no mercy.

Upon hearing these words, Qin Wu was momentarily stunned. He looked at Zhao Longhu in surprise, not expecting Zhao Longhu to be so decisive.

At the same time, he realized that he seemed to have underestimated the importance of Tianwu Mountain in Zhao Longhu's heart. Moreover, the effects of the Xuan Yin Pearl truly tempted him.

Now, the only way for him to break through is through time and practice. But with the help of the Mysterious Yin Pearl, perhaps he could really increase the speed at which the twelve acupoints open.

With this lucrative offer, Qin Wu had no reason to refuse, so he immediately nodded and followed Zhao Longhu toward Qiongzhou Island.

Qiongzhou Island wasn't far from where they were, and perhaps that was why Liu Yan'er was there. After all, it hadn't been long since Zhao Longhu had seen her. However, he didn't know why Liu Yan'er had gone to Qiongzhou Island. Then Zhao Longhu spoke:

"I had a heart-to-heart talk with Liu Yan'er before, and I thought that we had a great understanding of each other. So even though she was from the Sanyin Sect and I was a disciple of Tianwu Mountain, I regarded her as my only partner."

"I had a heart-to-heart talk with Liu Yan'er before, and I thought that we had a great understanding of each other. So even though she was from the Sanyin Sect and I was a disciple of Tianwu Mountain, I regarded her as my only partner."

During that time, we talked, and I learned some information from her: Liu Yan'er planned to do something on Qiongzhou Island. I heard it was a mission assigned by the Three Yin Sect, but I didn't know the specifics.

I had assumed she would leave the Three Yin Sect for my sake and never participate in the affairs of the Demonic Sect again. But now it seems I was perhaps overthinking things.

"I'm not sure if she's really on Qiongzhou Island now, but when she said that, she probably wasn't lying. And now is the time when she needs to break through. Qiongzhou Island is an extremely yin place, and the Xuan Yin Pearl is also extremely yin. The cultivation method that Liu Yan'er practices is an extremely yin method, so breaking through here would be most effective."

Zhao Longhu sighed. He had thought this was the beginning of their heart-to-heart talk, but it turned out to be the end. Everything that followed was actually a fabrication by Liu Yan'er to deceive him.

Most importantly, he still can't bring himself to deal with Liu Yan'er.

Thinking this, he glanced at Qin Wu. The reason Qin Wu was here was because he considered him a last resort. Even if he couldn't bring himself to act, as long as Qin Wu was still alive, he was certain Qin Wu could help him resolve this matter.

Because he could tell that Qin Wu was definitely not an indecisive person. If Liu Yan'er really posed a threat to their Tianwu Mountain, even if he couldn't bring himself to do it, he believed that Qin Wu would definitely be able to.

Qin Wu didn't fully understand his thoughts.

However, Qin Wu didn't care. Zhao Longhu was in charge of all the operations this time, and all he had to do was meet Liu Yan'er with Zhao Longhu.

However, there was one thing he and Zhao Longhu thought alike. For Qin Wu, he didn't actually care about the true nature of the relationship between Zhao Longhu and Liu Yan'er. Now that Qin Wu had joined Tianwu Mountain, he wouldn't allow it to decline under his leadership.

If that's the case, and if Liu Yan'er really poses a threat to Tianwu Mountain, he will not give Zhao Longhu any face and will definitely kill Liu Yan'er on the spot.

He wondered just how strong Liu Yan'er really was. However, judging from Zhao Longhu's situation, he knew that the two were probably not that far apart in strength; otherwise, they wouldn't have been qualified to have further contact.

Not long after, the two arrived at Qiongzhou Island.

After arriving at Qiongzhou Island, the two observed the situation there.

The local people are simple and honest, and the scenery is beautiful; it is clearly an excellent place for recuperation. However, Zhao Longhu was obviously in a very bad mood. Without any hesitation, after settling Qin Wu in, he went out to look for Liu Yan'er.

Meanwhile, on Qiongzhou Island, Liu Yan'er was sitting and drinking tea when suddenly someone ran up to her, knelt down, and said, "Holy Maiden, we have just received news that Zhao Longhu has arrived on Qiongzhou Island and seems to be looking for you."

Hearing this, Liu Yan'er was somewhat surprised. Then she looked up at the servant and said, "I really didn't expect him to come here. I thought our relationship would end here. I didn't expect him to be able to find us. It seems he's lucky to have escaped the pursuit of the Three Fiends of Qianzhou."

At this moment, Liu Yan'er was indeed somewhat surprised, after all, she had made thorough preparations and in her opinion, Zhao Longhu had no hope of survival.

After all, the Three Fiends of Qianzhou were all powerful figures who had already entered the True Qi Transformation Realm. Although these Three Fiends of Qianzhou were nothing more than ants to truly top-tier individuals, they were still considered experts and definitely not someone Zhao Longhu could handle. However, it now seemed that she had underestimated Zhao Longhu.

Then she said, "Ignore him. I have things to do. I can deal with him after I finish my work."

When she said this, Liu Yan'er showed no emotion whatsoever, because in her heart, Zhao Longhu was merely someone she could use. She had indeed had feelings for Zhao Longhu for a time before, but so what?

For the Demonic Sect, emotions are the least important thing.

She had done similar things more than once before. It was because of these repeated experiences that she was able to possess the ability to open almost all twelve acupoints at such a young age.

However, because she suffered some injuries in her early years, her foundation was somewhat lacking, resulting in damage to her roots. But now that she has obtained the Profound Yin Pearl, with this Profound Yin Pearl, she will be able to fully enter the True Qi Transformation Realm in a short time.

At that time, no one in the entire Three Yin Sect will be able to compare with her, and she will definitely be able to secure the position of the sole Holy Maiden, instead of being one of the three candidates for Holy Maiden, with two others competing with her.

Upon hearing this, the servant nodded and turned to leave. However, he was unaware that Zhao Longhu knew him far more than he had imagined.

Although the two had not known each other for long, Zhao Longhu already had a lot of ideas about him, so he was very familiar with his every move.

Just as he hadn't expected Zhao Longhu to appear on Qiongzhou Island, it didn't take long for Zhao Longhu to find the location of the Three Yin Sect.

After all, although Liu Yan'er acted discreetly this time, she didn't pay too much attention to it, which is why she gave him this opportunity.

However, Liu Yan'er didn't care about these things, which is why things have developed the way they have now.

Two days later, Qin Wu had already been on Qiongzhou Island for two days. During these two days, he had been honing his skills. Although the time was short, he could be considered to have made some progress.

During this time, his strength improved somewhat. At the same time, he also learned that Zhao Longhu had already made some gains. Zhao Longhu walked in and said:

"Junior Brother Qin, I have found Liu Yan'er's location, but there are a lot of people there, so I can't find a way to contact her for the time being."

"If we charge in head-on, those people from the Three Yin Sect will definitely stop us, and they won't give me and Liu Yan'er a chance to make contact."

"Moreover, Liu Yan'er would never have any intention of contacting me."

Zhao Longhu's expression held a hint of helplessness, and he sighed with a touch of resignation:

"So, Senior Brother Zhao, you also knew that Liu Yan'er would never have any contact with you."

Qin Wu's words made Zhao Longhu look somewhat embarrassed.

Then Qin Wu spoke up again, saying, "In that case, what are your plans, Senior Brother Zhao?"

Since Zhao Longhu came to see him, he must have made some decisions; he couldn't have just come to tell him this.

Then Zhao Longhu spoke up:

"I hope you, Junior Brother Qin, can give me an opportunity. It doesn't need to be long, just the time it takes to drink a cup of tea will suffice. Once I'm certain of Liu Yan'er's feelings, if she has truly caused an impact on Longhu Mountain, I will absolutely not give her any chance."

Zhao Longhu then briefly explained his plan.

"There are quite a few disciples of the Three Yin Sect here, but their strength is probably not very strong. At least I didn't sense any powerful individuals among them who could project their true energy. As long as you create some chaos, Junior Brother, I can take advantage of the chaos to find Liu Yan'er and have a chat with her."

Upon hearing this, Qin Wu's expression calmed down somewhat, and he said, "Senior Brother Zhao, you should know that those disciples of the Three Yin Sect are not easy to deal with. If I get into a conflict with them, I'm afraid many people will die."

Zhao Longhu's expression remained unchanged, and he said, "That's natural. Most of the people in the Three Yin Sect are wicked and deserve to be killed."

If it weren't for Liu Yan'er, I would have certainly killed these villains of the Three Yin Sect without mercy.

Even now, the only exception is Liu Yan'er; there are no others.

That's good.

A faint smile curved Qin Wu's lips. He had been worried that Zhao Longhu wouldn't be able to bring himself to do it. But now it seemed that his only problem was being bewitched by Liu Yan'er; as for other aspects, he truly hadn't.

If that's the case, then things become much easier. It's just murder, isn't it?

This is something he excels at.

Thinking of this, a cold glint appeared in his eyes.

Liu Yan'er knew nothing about any of this.

The next morning, the two arrived at the Three Yin Sect's headquarters.
