Chapter 489: Chapter 301 I’m Coming to Kill You
"Mixing fish eyes with pearls, substituting one thing for another, what cunning! What tactics! If Qing Yu is not eliminated, he will surely become a major threat in the future," Lu Qifeng spoke gravely.
"Master..." Luo Yan started to say something but hesitated.
A teacher knows his disciple best, and with one glance at Luo Yan’s expression, Lu Qifeng knew what he intended to say.
"Are you worried about your master? Worried that your master will die at the hands of Qing Yu?"
"Master, now that the Impermanence Divine Constable has resigned and the Six Gates are busy selecting a new Divine Constable, is it really appropriate for you to leave at this time?" Luo Yan found an excuse to say.
Of course, he was naturally concerned about Lu Qifeng’s safety. Qing Yu was full of deceit, capable of thinking the unthinkable for ordinary people, and adept at employing surprising strategies. Even though Lu Qifeng was indeed a legitimate True Pill Realm master, unlike the substandard Meng Wuchang, it was still worrisome.
Lu Qifeng could see the pretense in Luo Yan’s concern and reassured him, "Set your mind at rest. No matter how full of cunning Qing Yu is, the gap in strength cannot be compensated by mere strategy. The difference between the True Pill Realm and the Divine Origin Realm is far greater than any previous realm gap.
"Moreover, what sets me apart from Meng Wuchang is that my Qinggong is unmatched in the world, and I also possess the ’Wind Listening Technique’ for detection; I will not fall into Qing Yu’s traps."
"Besides, the selection of the Divine Constable by the Six Gates, due to the interference of the Shadow King, has led to an indefinite delay in choosing the candidate. If I can completely eradicate the Azure Dragon Association and kill Qing Yu, this troublesome confidant, it can also add weight to Xihai’s cause, breaking the Shadow King’s calculations."
Lu Qifeng thought about the selection of the Divine Constable and also felt a bit of a headache.
This selection was originally well-plotted. The departure of the inadequate Divine Constable Meng Wuchang to Northern Zhou to assassinate Qing Yu, whether he succeeded or failed, a change was needed.
What was originally an internal matter of the Six Gates for a change of guard, unexpectedly the Shadow King had long placed his pawns within the Six Gates. At this moment of transition, he interfered and turned what was supposed to be a sure thing into uncertainty.
"This time going to Northern Zhou, it would be good if we can kill Qing Yu. If not, we must at least make the Shadow King shift his focus to Northern Zhou and stop clinging to the matter of the new Divine Constable," Lu Qifeng said.
"But Master, Qing Yu has abandoned the identity of Gong Ziyu and surely has already gone into hiding. Even if we go looking for him, we wouldn’t know where to start," Luo Yan said, confused.
Even before, when Dragon Tiger Mountain sought the help of the Fate Altar, they had not found Qing Yu. If he truly intended to hide, Luo Yan did not believe that they, master and disciple, could locate him.
"We don’t need to look for him. We just need to continue Impermanence’s method, and Qing Yu will show himself automatically."
"Impermanence once attempted to assassinate Feng Chaonan to force Qing Yu to appear. We can use this method as well, to assassinate the real supporter behind Qing Yu, forcing him to reveal himself."
A glint of murderous intent flashed in Lu Qifeng’s eyes, "Before Feng Chaonan died, he had called out the name of Ninth Prince Feng Jiu of Northern Zhou. Plus, the first Prince that Qing Yu had contact with was Feng Jiu. It’s very likely that this is the person Qing Yu truly supports. Kill him, and both Qing Yu’s schemes and the Shadow King’s schemes will collapse on their own."
This strategy was straightforward and brutal, a perfect copy of Meng Wuchang’s approach, but undeniably it was a crucial tactic.
The focus of Qing Yu and the Shadow King’s plans was on Feng Jiu. Without Feng Jiu, everything else was just empty talk. Especially now that it had reached the final stage, if Feng Jiu were killed, Qing Yu wouldn’t even be able to find a replacement.
Moreover, more than half of the Princes had been killed by Qing Yu, with the remaining ones already taken into the Imperial Palace by Feng Tianming.
After hearing his master’s plan, Luo Yan’s taut nerves finally found some relief.
At least under the current circumstances, there appeared to be no danger to his master’s life on this trip to Northern Zhou.
If this mission could succeed, it would not only resolve the menace of Northern Zhou but also settle the selection of a new Divine Constable for the Six Gates once and for all, breaking the Shadow King’s conspiracy and incidentally sweeping away the moles the Shadow King had planted within the Six Gates.
Thinking this way, the mission was akin to killing three birds with one stone and absolutely imperative.
...
While master and disciple conversed in the restaurant, a white shadow flashed across the sky up above.

"——"
Just as the White Phoenix was about to raise its neck and crow long, Qing Yu forcefully suppressed it with the Power of Thought.
After refining the blood qi from the meat relics, there was still quite a bit of the Dragon and Tiger Pill bestowed by Zhang Xuanji left over. Qing Yu would from time to time feed a pill to the White Phoenix, hoping it could develop once more, transforming from a large bird into a giant one.
Now, it seemed like the Dragon and Tiger Pill had quite a beneficial effect on the White Phoenix. But this also came with a small side effect.
That being, the overly energetic White Phoenix would crow like a rooster from time to time, particularly when it was flying to its heart’s content.
"Is that where Lu Qifeng is currently located?"
Qing Yu looked down at the prefecture town below, which appeared as small as the palm of a hand.
In this town, the inn that seemed unremarkable at first was now so eye-catching.
That was where the Chasing Wind Divine Constable, Lu Qifeng, resided.
"Lu Qifeng is also now aware that Shadow King has left a covert hand within the Six Gates. At the very moment when the Six Gates are selecting new Divine Constables, Lu Qifeng has quietly departed. Who does he think he can deceive?" Qing Yu silently observed the inn, sneering inwardly.
In reality, Lu Qifeng also understood that others could not be kept in the dark about his whereabouts, and he had even prepared for the eventuality of someone from the Shadow King Sect coming to stop him.
However, he wouldn’t have expected that it wasn’t someone from the Shadow King Sect coming to intercept him, but Qing Yu himself coming to assassinate him.
Lu Qifeng would never have thought that in these past few months, whether it was the true or false Gong Ziyu, both should have disappeared from the human list.
The Qing Yu that he had always believed would become a great hidden danger in the future had now become a fatal calamity.
The Thought rippled, and under Qing Yu’s directions, the White Phoenix slowly began to lower its altitude.
After descending to an adequate height, Qing Yu ordered the White Phoenix to stop.
"This is close enough."
True Qi suddenly burst forth from the major acupoints around his body, entwining with the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, the Circulating Eight Forces rapidly cycling through, the eight forces transforming into sixty-four, further dividing into one hundred and twenty-eight, ceaselessly evolving.
Heavenly Endless Treasure.
After advancing to the True Pill Realm and also mastering the Dao Heart Devil Planting Great Method for absorbing Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, the time it took Qing Yu to cast Heavenly Endless Treasure was now remarkably short.
Leaping into space, Qing Yu’s hands seemed to grasp the Heavenly Vault itself as he abruptly pulled downward.
With this gesture, the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi above him was drawn by the Circulating Eight Forces, resembling a raging flood, as the Primordial Qi Column thunderously descended, heading straight for the inn in Linchuan Prefecture.
It was like an instant, and yet it felt as if a thousand years had passed.
Heavenly Endless Treasure struck the ground.
"Boom——"
The inn collapsed in a moment, and the people inside didn’t have the chance to scream before the exploding Primordial Qi reduced them to ashes without leaving a single bone behind.
The powerful shockwave swept through, collapsing nearby houses, lifting pedestrians into the air, while horrifying cracks spread across the streets.
"Lu Qifeng, I’ve come to kill you!"
