Live-in Son-in-law

Chapter 1487: Escape

Tian Xie’s face looked extremely grim.

It’s not that he wanted to escape, but because the Evil Lord ordered him to.

"Master, I am not afraid of him at all."

The Evil Lord said solemnly, "This boy still has a trump card, he’s not that easy to provoke."

"Tian Xie, anyone who accomplishes great things must remain patient. Why risk your life in a situation where you know you can’t win? It’s not worth it at all."

"You have my assistance. As long as you find my incomplete body, I can make you soar to greatness."

"By then, forget Qin Yi, no one in the entire Primordial would be your match."

Tian Xie nodded heavily and said harshly:

"I will heed your advice, Master. By then, I will repay Qin Yi a hundredfold for the humiliation he gave me."

"Let him continue to be arrogant for a while, I’ll ensure he’ll neither live nor die by then."

The Evil Lord said, "It’s good that you think this way. Although your combat strength is temporarily not as good as Qin Yi’s, your cultivation is not inferior."

"The only difference between you and Qin Yi is that your combat experience isn’t as plentiful as his. This isn’t difficult to make up for."

"Although Qin Yi is very strong, he is overly arrogant. Such people are not difficult to deal with."

Tian Xie’s heart was full of malice, but he nodded and said, "I understand, Master. I won’t fight him desperately for now."

Qin Yi naturally noticed Tian Xie’s escape.

He flashed through the storm, watched Tian Xie speeding away, and sneered:

"No wonder you were unwilling to swear before, it seems you know that you are a loser."

"Tian Xie, in this sense, Qin has some admiration for you. People must have self-awareness."

"But you think I don’t exist, right? In front of Qin, you can’t just leave whenever you want."

Purple radiance swept across, wings flapped, causing deafening supersonic booms in the air.

Now Qin Yi’s speed, bolstered by the Phoenix Feathers, covers several kilometers with just one casual step.

"Tian Xie, stay here."

Qin Yi streaked across the sky like a meteor, rapidly closing the distance with Tian Xie.

At the same time, a flash of black light appeared in Qin Yi’s hand, and the Black Brick appeared in his grasp.

"Swish!"

The black light gleamed, piercing through the void, aiming at Tian Xie’s back.

Tian Xie’s back chilled, his fury boiling.

"Qin Yi, I disdain to argue with you. Don’t bully me too much; do you really think I’m afraid of you?"

Tian Xie felt oppressed, wanting to cough up blood.

He was the rightful heir to the Evil Lord, yet he was chased down in disgrace by Qin Yi, who had no guidance.

Tian Xie’s eyes were gloomy, filled with murderous intent, wishing to return and fight Qin Yi to the death.

"Tian Xie, remain calm; this is a provocation. If you get angry, you’ve fallen for it."

"I’ve always told you, as long as you stay alive, there’s hope. Staying alive is all that matters."

"I’ve endured endless years of silence, if I can wait, so can you, young as you are."

The Evil Lord spoke again.

If it were Qin Yi, he would surely suspect the Evil Lord’s intentions.

But Tian Xie trusted the Evil Lord deeply and followed his words without question.

"Master, I understand."

As Tian Xie spoke, his body suddenly shifted sideways with great force.

"Boom!"

The Black Brick struck air, shattering a large section of the mountain wall ahead.

"Tian Xie, are you so afraid of me?"

"Cowardly scum, just like the old ghost in your body. Daring to use Blood Demon Worms to trap me, yet not daring to face me."

"Tian Xie, who gave you the courage to provoke me like a stray dog?"

Qin Yi followed behind, wings flapping intensely, increasing his speed again and closing the distance with Tian Xie by a kilometer.

"Qin Yi, your life belongs to me. Eventually, you will die by my hand."

"It’s not fear but disdain to kill you."

"Qin Yi, cherish your life. I’ll come for it soon. Until we meet again."

Tian Xie roared, his voice full of unwillingness and frustration.

"Do vanquished foes dare speak of courage?"

"If you stop now, I will definitely kill you within three strikes."

Qin Yi sneered, his words dripping with disdain for Tian Xie.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, blood light exploded, more dazzling than the rising sun.

Qin Yi was furious, raised his hand, and delivered a palm strike, terrifying palm wind roaring like an Evil Dragon, sweeping out.

The palm wind dispersed the dazzling blood light, shattering a large section of the mountain wall.

Qin Yi’s face darkened.

Tian Xie still managed to escape.

The dazzling blood light just exploded was the Blood Escape Technique.

The Blood Escape Technique draws upon Essence Blood, inflicting significant harm to the body.

But Qin Yi wanted to kill Tian Xie, not just injure him.

Tian Xie’s talent was strong, comparable to him, a monster. However, he was young and arrogant, extremely vain, hence not difficult to deal with.

The real problem was the Evil Lord within him, the old ghost who had survived endless years with deep cunning.

Unless he is completely trapped, this old ghost will never take risks; any hint of danger will make him flee.

"Damn it."

Qin Yi cursed in anger.

Twice. Twice he let Tian Xie and the Evil Lord get away.

"Master, don’t be angry; he now harbors a shadow against you, which will accompany him always."

"When he faces you, his aura will already be inferior by three points. Next time, he won’t escape your grasp."

The Blood Flood Dragon comforted Qin Yi.

Qin Yi sighed slightly, chuckling bitterly, "I hope so."

If it were just Tian Xie, he wouldn’t worry.

But the Evil Lord, this old sly fox, is not easy to deal with.

Qin Yi returned to search for the Black Brick.

Earlier, in his bid to kill Tian Xie, he hadn’t bothered to recall the Black Brick and didn’t know where it had fallen.

This Black Brick is of unknown material but indestructible, a must-have tool for dealing with enemies; it can’t be lost.

What annoyed Qin Yi was that the Black Brick couldn’t establish a link with him; if released beyond the range covered by his Divine Thought, it was easy to lose.

Indeed, it’s as if bad luck follows good fortune.

Qin Yi returned to the wall struck by the Black Brick, searched all over but didn’t find it.

He came to the foot of the mountain, yet still found nothing.

The Divine Thought covering the surrounding kilometers didn’t reveal the brick’s shadow.

Could it be lost?

If it truly is lost, this is a significant loss. Failing to kill Tian Xie and losing an essential weapon for dealing with enemies, a true case of lost investment.

"Blood Flood Dragon, quickly find the Black Brick; this thing can’t be lost."

Qin Yi and the Blood Flood Dragon searched for over half an hour but still didn’t find the Black Brick’s shadow.

"Master, could someone have secretly picked it up?"

"Impossible."

Though the area exceeded his Divine Thought’s coverage earlier, coming and going only took a few minutes; who could have stolen his Black Brick in such a short time?

Moreover, who would be around here in this deserted wilderness at this early hour?

"The Black Brick hit this mountain wall; if it’s not here, it must’ve fallen to the base."

"Blood Flood Dragon, you search here; I’ll look at the mountain’s base."

"Yes, Master."

The two split up to search.

Qin Yi reached the mountain base, scanning every inch of land with Divine Thought but still didn’t find the Black Brick.

Could it really be lost?

Qin Yi felt desperate, this time the loss was immense.
