Marry the Demon Sect Girl with No Bride Price-Chapter 91: Hunting Qin Gengyun

One incense stick later.

Qin Gengyun walked out of the Pill Talisman Tower, with about 3200 Spirit Stones left in the Spirit Crystal in his arms.

He did not buy any magical combat secret manual.

A thousand Spirit Stones for one book, the price indeed makes people click their tongues.

However, it wasn’t that Tong Jinjin was trying to overcharge him.

Like Fourth Grade Spirit Pills, combat-type secret manuals are also controlled by the Three Great Sects and can only be learned by becoming an Outer Sect disciple.

The sale of combat-type secret manuals is like selling forbidden goods, and only a powerful force like the Pill Talisman Tower dare to do it.

Even so, it must be done secretly.

Therefore, a thousand Spirit Stones for one secret manual is not unreasonable.

It’s just that Qin Gengyun has no experience in combat and doesn’t know which technique suits him, so he plans to go home and discuss it with his wife.

Qiu Zhihe once stayed in a cultivation sect, so she must know something about magical combat. Consulting her opinion before deciding on which secret manual to buy seems more prudent.

However, if he buys the secret manual, he will also need to buy Spirit Marrow for cultivation, and with less than a thousand Spirit Stones left, his plans to buy a house and Flying Sword will have to be postponed.

Thinking about this, Qin Gengyun walked into a narrow alley, a shortcut leading to Narrow Rain Lane.

It was already 7 p.m., and dusk was approaching, so it was better to head home early.

Suddenly, eerie black light surrounded him, engulfing him.

"A barrier?"

Qin Gengyun’s expression changed.

This must be an imprisoning-type array that forms a barrier, trapping someone within unless the array creator is killed, or your cultivation far exceeds the array creator, you cannot escape.

However, this array requires a lot of Spirit Marrow, a hefty price.

Who would go to such lengths to trap me?

It was Qin Gengyun’s first time encountering such a situation. He felt a bit nervous but remained calm on the surface and said aloud:

"Which Taoist friend is this, is there perhaps a misunderstanding? Could you show yourself for a discussion?"

He did not immediately release Spiritual Power to show his Qi Cultivation Fifth-Layer cultivation as the situation was unclear, and it was best to remain cautious.

His fingers trembled slightly, suppressing his instinctive anxiety while trying to keep a clear mind.

After a moment, a shadow slowly emerged from the darkness, and Qin Gengyun’s pupils constricted:

"Zhou Kun!"

Zhou Kun coldly snorted, "Only Qi Cultivation Fourth-Layer, yet you don’t call me senior! Such impudence, you deserve to die!"

Qin Gengyun’s mind raced, recalling Qiu Zhihe’s words:

"In magical combat, there’s no dignity, no morality; when the enemy dies and you survive, that’s the only truth."

The cold words seemed to echo in his ears, but they made Qin Gengyun’s wildly beating heart gradually calm down.

The next moment, he feigned a terrified appearance, his voice feigned trembling:

"Senior Zhou, there’s no animosity between us, what do you mean by this?"

As he spoke, he cautiously reached out with his Divine Sense.

He was now at Qi Cultivation Fifth-Layer, and the length of his Divine Sense had increased to four zhang. Qin Gengyun had read in array books that the range of this kind of low-level imprisoning array wouldn’t be too large.

At most four or five zhang.

Zhou Kun had ill intentions, and Qin Gengyun did not know if he had more tricks up his sleeve. To know oneself and the enemy is the only way to escape danger.

"No animosity? Heh, hahaha!"

Zhou Kun suddenly burst into wild laughter:

"You stole my woman and humiliated me publicly in the night market; either one is enough for me to kill you ten times! How dare you say there’s no animosity between us?"

Qin Gengyun directed his Divine Sense far around Zhou Kun, who indeed didn’t notice. While directing his Divine Sense to probe the surroundings, he continued to feign terror:

"Senior Zhou, it’s a misunderstanding! That day, I happened to be delivering goods to Taoist Friend Mo, and, I hadn’t heard that Taoist Friend Mo had formed a Dao companion with anyone. She should have no connection with you, right?"

Zhou Kun’s laughter ceased, his expression extremely cold:

"Do you think I don’t know? I already forced that Huang Xun to confess, and he revealed everything. You and Mo Xiaolan had an affair long ago. She feared my anger towards you, so she left Yunling Town!"

"Tell me, where did Mo Xiaolan go? I can let you die a little less painfully!"

"What?!" Qin Gengyun was stunned.

Mo Xiaolan wasn’t she supposed to go to Zhenyang City for business and come back in half a year?

The thought flickered, and he understood.

Zhou Kun’s words must be true. Mo Xiaolan, afraid of implicating him, quietly left Yunling Town.

To not make him worry, she had Huang Xun and Landlord Lin keep this from him.

But Mo Xiaolan had lived in Yunling Town for so long; all her connections and foundations were here.

Suddenly leaving, where could she go?

Starting over in a strange place, how difficult must it be?

Mo Xiaolan... why are you so foolish!

For a moment, Qin Gengyun’s heart was filled with mixed emotions, surprise, heartache, regret...

But now faced with crisis, he could not be distracted, continuing to feign fear:

"Senior Zhou, don’t listen to others’ nonsense, I really don’t know where Taoist Friend Mo has gone."

As he spoke, he "tremblingly" took out the One Sword Talisman.

"Senior Zhou, feuds should be resolved rather than created. Why trouble a small cultivator of Qi Cultivation Third-Layer over such trivial matters?"

Seeing him take out the One Sword Talisman, Zhou Kun wasn’t afraid at all, and laughed again heartily:

"Qin Gengyun, you’re quite crafty, even now trying to hide your cultivation, but unfortunately, someone has already informed me of your details, you’ve reached Qi Cultivation Fourth-Layer, correct?"

Qin Gengyun’s face turned pale, his body trembling even more violently:

"Who told you? Don’t come closer!"

He held the One Sword Talisman, looking desperate and exhausted.

His Divine Sense had already reached the edge of the barrier, and about two zhang behind Zhou Kun, a short and stout figure stood.

There’s another person!

The Divine Sense was nearing its limit, Qin Gengyun continued to act while striving to extend his Divine Sense further.

Zhou Kun watched Qin Gengyun’s fear with enjoyment, laughing loudly:

"I’m not afraid to tell you, I went to the Northern Wilderness and obtained a Spirit-Banning Talisman, which not only forms a barrier but also nullifies Third Grade or lower Attack Talismans within it."

Qin Gengyun’s face changed, this time it was halfway genuine.

He had heard of the Spirit-Banning Talisman and tried to activate the One Sword Talisman, but it indeed had no response.

Zhou Kun’s voice rang out again, full of mockery and glee:

"Don’t worry, I won’t let you die quickly, I will cripple your cultivation, break your limbs, and someone will come to slowly torment you."

"Senior Zhou, your cultivation is profound, why trouble a mere Loose Cultivator like me?"

Qin Gengyun continued to feign fear and pleading, his mind becoming clearer.

Once when drinking with Mo Xiaolan, he heard her say that the Spirit-Banning Talisman is different from ordinary talisman papers, to maintain the barrier, someone must continuously inject Spiritual Power into it.

No wonder Zhou Kun brought another person along, it must be the one maintaining the barrier with Spiritual Power.

His Divine Sense slowly probed forward, and as expected, he saw the person hiding at the edge of the barrier, emitting a faint light, continuously injecting Spiritual Power into a talisman paper pasted on the wall.

And that person’s face gradually became clear.

Yang Fengshan!

"Hahaha," Zhou Kun’s laughter was sharp, filled with the enjoyment of toying with prey and cruelty:

"Qin, do you know why you will die? It’s not because of Mo Xiaolan, but because you lack reverence for the strong, that’s the path to death!"

Saying so, Zhou Kun exuded the pressure of Qi Cultivation Fifth-Layer, raising his palm and striking towards Qin Gengyun!
