"Golden Elixir Stage, is that really so impressive? Who gave you the courage to act so arrogantly in front of me with just a mere Golden Elixir Stage?"

Qin Yi felt that he was qualified to boast a bit now, at least for the next ten minutes.

"You keep saying you want me dead, but who's the one actually dying now?"

Qin Yi stared at Xiahou Tai. He wasn't the type to talk too much and give the opponent a chance to counterattack.

After breaking Xiahou Tai's arms, he struck his palm on Xiahou Tai's forehead, smashing his head like a watermelon.

A so-called "Chosen One·Reversed" didn't die at the hands of the "Chosen One" Hua Yunfeng, but instead met his end early at Qin Yi's hands.

"You... you..."

Song Xianming was so terrified by the scene that his legs went weak.

One must know that Xiahou Tai was a dignified Golden Elixir Realm expert. In the entire Famous Sword Sect, among the younger generation, only Hua Yunfeng and him had reached the Golden Elixir Realm.

Other Golden Elixir Stage experts were basically at the elder level.

In terms of realm, Xiahou Tai was fully qualified to be an elder.

Yet such a master was killed on the spot by a new disciple from Emerald Bamboo Peak who had been there for less than a month.

"How could this... how could this happen..."

Song Xianming felt like he had seen a ghost and desperately tried to crawl away.

But the fear that penetrated his bones rendered his legs numb.

He could only drag his upper body, using his hands to crawl on the ground, trying to escape.

But how could Qin Yi let him get away?

"Come here."

With the power of the Elemental Infant Realm, Qin Yi grabbed Song Xianming from a distance.

"Didn't you want to kill me? Why do you only know how to run now?"

Qin Yi patted his face.

Song Xianming was trembling with fear, and a trickle of liquid flowed from his pants. "Don't kill me... I... I don't want that wretched woman anymore, I'll give her to you, all to you. I don't know anything, I won't say anything, please don't kill me... I beg you, don't kill me..."

Song Xianming knelt on the ground, kowtowing desperately.

Qin Yi looked at his submissive posture and sneered coldly in his heart.

As the saying goes, if you don't kill the snake, it will come back to bite you.

He always believed in one principle: don't make enemies, but if you do, it's a fight to the death.

Showing mercy and forgiving an opponent will only disgust you in the future and might even lead to regret.

Keeping an opponent alive has no benefits; killing them has no drawbacks. So why keep them?

"Xinran is my woman, do I need your permission? You can join Xiahou Tai."

Qin Yi raised his hand and struck down with a bang, shattering Song Xianming's head as well.

After killing the two, Qin Yi dragged their bodies together and searched them thoroughly.

There wasn't much of value on Song Xianming, but on Xiahou Tai, he found a black skull ring.

When he put the black skull ring on his finger, he immediately felt a dark energy lurking within it.

If he used his spiritual sense to probe the ring, he could see a skeleton sitting cross-legged inside.

The skeleton seemed to have some life left in it, and as soon as Qin Yi's spiritual sense entered, it sensed him.

It looked up and met his gaze, then let out a sinister laugh. "Rare, rare indeed, to have killed Xiahou Tai. Young man, you have potential. Since this ring has fallen into your hands, would you like to accept the inheritance of this Demon Lord?"

Demon Lord's inheritance!

It must be the Heavenly Demon Dao's teachings.

Theft is never good, try looking at [ pawread dot com ].

"Bah, Heavenly Demon Dao. If cultivating it makes me look like Xiahou Tai with those long nails, I don't want it."

Even if it's powerful, Qin Yi wasn't interested in such a path because it was simply too ugly.

He immediately took off the ring and crushed it with a snap.

After the ring shattered, a wail came from its space, and then a thick smoke emerged and quickly dissipated.

Without a doubt, the ring contained the remnant soul of the Demon Lord. Whoever obtained this ring and accepted its inheritance would become his emissary.

Preparing for his future resurrection.

As the Child of the System, how could Qin Yi be interested in a mere demonic inheritance?

Besides the ring, Xiahou Tai also had many spirit stones and pills. As someone who could rival Hua Yunfeng in the Famous Sword Sect, his resources were certainly abundant.

After taking these benefits, Qin Yi set the two bodies on fire.

Under the burning power of the Elemental Infant Realm, the two bodies quickly turned to ashes.

Xu Xinran, not wanting to be a burden, had run to the depths of the cave to hide in a secret place.

She hadn't seen what happened outside.

After resting for a while, Qin Yi went in to find her.

Xu Xinran followed him out, trembling, but no longer saw any trace of Xiahou Tai or Song Xianming.

"Husband... where are they?"

Qin Yi didn't deceive her and pointed to the ashes on the ground. "Look, that's their ashes."

Xu Xinran was startled and stared in disbelief for a long time. "Husband... did you... did you do this?"

"Yes, thanks to your kiss, which gave me strength again, so I could explode."

Xu Xinran gave a bitter smile.

The first time Qin Yi said this, she believed him.

But the second time, and especially after killing someone as powerful as Xiahou Tai, even a woman in love would sense something unusual.

"Husband, your realm must be very high, right?"

Seeing her expression turn to disappointment, Qin Yi immediately embraced her. "No matter how high my realm is, you are my woman. No matter what happens in the future, I will never abandon you."

Saying this, he gave her all the spoils he found on Xiahou Tai.

Except for a storage pouch that he kept for himself, he gave her everything else.

Xu Xinran was stunned to receive a pile of pills and spirit stones. "Husband... you're giving all this to me?"

"Of course, I said that from now on, I'll provide all the resources you need for cultivation. After all, you're my woman."

Xu Xinran's eyes reddened. These resources were no small amount.

For a disciple like her, even working hard in the sect for ten years wouldn't earn her these resources.

Among the pills were Great Return Pills, Qi Gathering Pills, and Foundation Establishment Pills.

And they were all in bottles.

With these resources, she wouldn't have to worry even if she didn't take on any missions.

In modern terms, these were equivalent to luxury houses and sports cars.

When a man gives a woman luxury houses and sports cars right after getting together, it's impossible for her not to be moved.
