Chapter 142: Extremely Ominous Abacus

  The man's companions. Upon hearing the sound, they all ran out, but he hesitated and thus hastened their death.

  Bang! Bang, bang!

  Every time the extremely evil old man moved his finger, a life would die in his hands.

  In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen lives were lost!

  The corpse looked as ugly as ever, its body blown apart, with a mist of blood hanging in the air.

  The guests at the Dong Cup Inn immediately boiled over, seeing this situation, each with a look of horror, as if they had seen a ghost, and they all flipped windows and jumped walls, ready to escape.

  The extremely gloomy old man said in a cold voice: "Want to leave?"

  With a flick of his sleeve, a continuous stream of white light shot out from his hand, as if the sleeve contained a miniature universe, suddenly releasing a massive amount of energy that destroyed heaven and earth, like a tidal wave crashing out.

  Boom!

  The entire Donglin Inn suddenly burst open with a loud bang.

  The entire Donglin Inn was suddenly reduced to ashes. It was as if it had suddenly withdrawn from this world, instantly turning into dust and smoke!

  The Donglin Inn's owner and employees, along with the guests, numbering at least a hundred people, were reduced to ashes in an instant.

  The extremely gloomy old man sneered and took big strides forward.

  "There is also an oil factory, the property of Donglin Qin's family, which is turning in the mind of the old man."

  Qin Wushuang was currently strolling with Liu's messenger and Wu Sheng in the martial arts arena when they suddenly changed their expressions at the same time, looking shocked towards the direction of Donglin Inn.

  The faces of the three people changed color almost simultaneously.

  "Let's take a look at the past!" Qin Wushuang took the lead on horseback.

  Liu's messenger and Wu Sheng exchanged a glance, then followed him together.

  In front of the Qin family's large oil workshop, an extremely gloomy old man had a somber expression, with his palm facing upwards. A ball of dark fire appeared in his palm, and as he lifted his arm, it directly splashed onto the oil workshop. The fire in his palm was transformed by the force of the splash into a boundless sea of flames that filled the sky and pressed down on everything.

  Boom!

  The Da Oil Factory was instantly engulfed in the flames, and soon became a sea of fire, burning fiercely. There were over a dozen workers inside the factory who were trapped by this sudden disaster, and they were burned to death amidst wails and screams that did not cease.

  "Hmph, the sea of flames is refining hell, this taste isn't bad either? If you want to blame someone, blame yourselves for being in Donglin Town, blame yourselves for being dogs of the Qin family!" The old man's tone was full of resentment and venom.

  Suddenly, his face turned cold, and a gleam of joy flashed in his eyes as he turned to look back.

  Qin Wushuang shot over, his golden eyes staring angrily at the extremely gloomy old man.

  Staring at the sea of flames and scorched earth, he asked in a hoarse voice: "Yin Lao Ren?"

  The old man's face was gloomy, and his cold eyes shot out: "Are you a member of the Qin family?"

  "You're extremely evil and cruel, Qin family's troublemaker! Why must you slaughter these innocent civilians?" Qin Wushuang's tone was filled with an uncontrollable rage.

  The person in charge of this large oil factory is Shui Bo, who has been a loyal servant to the Qin family for decades. He has always been loyal and dedicated, but Qin Wushuang's heart is filled with both pain and hatred.

  "Innocent?" The extremely gloomy old man said with a sinister tone, "If you're related to the Qin family, then you're not innocent. A member of the Qin family... My great disciple Lei Wuji has come to this place?

  Just then, Wu Sheng and Liu Shi arrived together.

  "Willow Envoy shouted loudly: "Extreme Yin Old Man, listen to me for a moment"

  Extremely gloomy, coldly smiling, sizing up the Martial Saint and Liu's messenger, he sneered: "Another two Pre-Heavenly? Good, just in time. With three Pre-Heavenly to accompany my big disciple in death, Wuji, you can go to the Yellow Springs now. You won't be lonely!"

  The old man's tone was full of evil spirit, accompanied by a flickering gaze. This extremely sinister old man would obviously erupt at any moment, Qin Wushuang and Wu Sheng were both concentrating to meet him.

  The willow messenger suddenly shouted: "Extreme Yin, before you make a move, you'd better figure out who I am!"

  "What's with your identity? Extremely gloomy and eerie smile. "What's special about your identity?"

  The Wu Sheng lord drank and said: "This is the Liu envoy, the front envoy of Xing Luo Hall. Ji Yin old monster, although your Ji Yin sect is overbearing, do you dare to disobey the will of Xing Luo Hall?"

  "Star Luo Hall? The old man's eyes widened in surprise as he sized up the messenger from head to toe, his voice firm as he asked: "Are you really a messenger from Star Luo Hall?"

  "Take it for granted! Extremely gloomy, I'm not clear what kind of feud you have with the Qin family. But before you take action, it's better to wait a bit. A few days ago, I've already sent a letter back to Xingluo Hall. The masters of the five halls will surely send someone to personally come and judge your right and wrong."

  The reputation of Xing Luo Hall is something that even the Extreme Yin Old Man cannot afford to ignore. Upon hearing these words, the Extreme Yin Old Man's face was overcast with a mixture of emotions, clearly lost in thought.

  It has to be admitted that any of the masters of Xingluo Temple who come are not something that Jiuyin Old Man can resist. They all have enough strength to destroy Jiuyin Old Man.

  The strength of Xīng Luó Diàn is not just the existence of the five great hall masters, but a comprehensive and overall crushing strength.

  In the Grand Luo Empire, whoever offends the Star Luo Temple will be courting their own destruction. This includes even the extremely powerful old men, with no exceptions whatsoever.

  "Is the master of Xingluo Hall personally coming to this poor and remote place? Liu, the messenger. I'm curious, what's the reason for this? Could it be that the Donglin Qin family has a relationship with your Xingluo Hall?"

  Liu's messenger shook his head in fear: "This Wu Shuang Hou is the champion of the Daluo Empire's Martial Arts Competition, and he is the talent designated by our Xingluo Temple. The five temple masters sent me this time to pick him up. If you don't understand, your brother Ping Lie was killed by others because his skills were not refined, that's self-destruction. If you persist in being ignorant and provoke the temple masters, I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to escape disaster!"

  The extremely gloomy old man's face sank: "Can't escape a calamity? Just relying on these few threatening sentences, I, the Old Ancestor, will risk offending the Star Luo Temple and send you to your death today!"

  The messenger's face changed, and he shouted: "Ji Yin, you are obstinately ignorant, and you will bring destruction upon yourself. Moreover, the several hundred people of the Ji Yin Sect will all be annihilated!"

  The extremely gloomy old man was annoyed in his heart, but he had to repeatedly think and weigh the pros and cons. If he were to take action today, even if he killed these three people, the entire Extreme Yin Sect would likely be destroyed in an instant.

  He is extremely cunning and can escape abroad, defecting to other empires. With his skills, it's easy to find a new backer. Defecting to a major power would definitely not be a problem for him.

  But in the extremely gloomy sect, there were still his six favorite disciples. Among the seven pre-heavenly disciples, apart from Li Wuji, there were also six others that he had to consider as factors.

  Once he kills and flees today, he will inevitably be unable to take care of those six children.

  But as Liu's envoy had said earlier, he had already sent a letter back to the Star Luo Palace. This was an extremely sinister move on his part, and it would not be difficult to investigate and find out.

  In that case, he wanted to take six congenital disciples back to the Extreme Yin Mountain. It was simply impossible.

  Weighing the pros and cons, killing these three people would mean sacrificing six of his own disciples. This was a decision he still had to consider carefully. He struggled to suppress the anger burning in his heart.

  "Thinking to himself: 'Now even the Star Luo Temple has come out to protect this little brat, I want to kill him today. With the entire Extreme Yin Sect at my disposal, how can he possibly escape unscathed? This little brat admitted to killing my great disciple, his death sentence is a certainty. However, today is not the day. Wait until the old ancestor returns to the Extreme Yin Sect and sends out several trusted disciples, then I will come back and kill off the entire Qin family. After that, the old ancestor can just walk away with a clear conscience and go join the Tianchi Empire. Even if the Star Luo Temple tries to intervene, what can they do to the old ancestor?'

  With this thought in mind, the Extreme Yin Old Ancestor smiled strangely, his face full of insincere laughter, and said: 'You are indeed worthy of being a representative from the Star Luo Temple, good courage, good spirit. I deeply admire you! Since it is the Star Luo Temple that has come out to protect him, I can give them some face. However, since that little brat killed my great disciple, he must make some amends.'"

  He's using retreat as an advance. He plans to steady his opponent first and let them have no suspicions.

  In this way, he can easily transfer six trusted disciples without being monitored.

  Once the transfer is complete, it's his turn to slaughter the entire Qin family!

  Qin Wushuang coldly snorted: "What compensation? You killed so many of the Qin family's servants and destroyed so many of the Qin family's foundations. What kind of compensation can you offer?"

  The extremely cold old man sneered and said: "These foolish villagers, how can they compare to my innate disciples?"

  This overbearing attitude made Qin Wusuo extremely displeased, and he had already decided to kill this extremely evil old man in his heart. However, he also knew that with his current strength, there was still a huge gap between him and the extremely evil old man. Wanting to take revenge today would not be easy!

  Liu's envoy naturally wouldn't allow their contradictions to escalate, so he hastily intervened and said: "Extreme Yin. Wu Shuang Hou, I have a proposal here, would you like to hear it?"

  "You speak." The extremely gloomy old man said with a sinister smile.

  "The grudges between you are nothing but small frictions. Now both sides have suffered losses. As the saying goes, 'it's better to resolve grievances than to create new ones.' This matter of right and wrong, I suggest you two come with me to Xing Luo Hall immediately. In front of the five hall masters, explain your positions clearly. Turn hostility into friendship. Even if this grudge cannot be resolved, how to take revenge, how to settle accounts, we must establish some rules, and not use innocent people as targets for slaughter."

  This idea, seemingly fair, actually favors Qin Wushuang. After all, given Qin Wushuang's current strength, the gap with the Old Man of the Gene is huge. He doesn't have the power to kill someone close to the Extreme Yin Old Man.

  The extremely gloomy old man didn't seem to catch the underlying meaning, but he also didn't expose it, as he already had his own plans. He naturally didn't mind humoring and responding perfunctorily, saying with a false smile, "Since the master of the Five Great Halls has stepped out, I suppose I can give him some face. Envoy Liu, let's consider this settled."

  "Unmatched Marquis, what is your opinion?" asked Liu Shi.

  Qin Wushuang naturally wouldn't believe that the eccentric and ferocious Extreme Yin Old Man would be so easy to talk to. This matter must still have its twists and turns, but if they could lure the Extreme Yin Old Man out of the Baiyue Kingdom, it would be a good thing nonetheless. For now, he nodded slightly: "The Envoy's words are reasonable, Wushuang doesn't dare disobey!"

  The extremely gloomy old man suddenly smiled and said: "Since that's the case, I'll return to the Dahua Empire first. Envoy Liu, let's meet at Xingluo Hall!"

  Liu's envoy replied: "Good, good."

  The extremely gloomy old man's body was like a gust of wind. He turned around and disappeared into thin air, as if he had suddenly evaporated into wisps of smoke and vanished.

  They came and went like the wind, mysterious and unpredictable. The three initial Lingwu practitioners' tense strings suddenly relaxed, and the pressure was instantly relieved. This extremely yin old man's intimidation was too strong.

  They were so strong that even when answering, they didn't dare relax their vigilance at all.
