A month later, Su Ming returned to the Desolate Village in Qingzhou.
Ye Chuxue looked at him in surprise.
"You only left a few months ago. How did you come back so quickly?"
Su Ming did not choose to hide anything. He directly told her that this time, he had returned to kill someone.
"Kill someone? Brother, we are still being hunted by the Qingyun Sect. If you go around killing people so openly, is that really a good idea?"
Su Ming knew the concern in her heart, so he explained,
"Do not worry. This time, I am only going to the mortal world to kill one person, not to kill someone in the three great sects."
After hearing him say that, Ye Chuxue no longer objected. The wanted notices against them were much lighter in the mortal world.
Seven days later, he brought Ye Chuxue to the capital of the Qin Kingdom.
He remembered that in the previous simulation, Lin Qi had said that his father held the title of a non-imperial prince in the Qin Kingdom.
Following that clue, Su Ming quickly found the Lin Residence.
After entering the Lin Residence alone, he immediately found Lin Qi. Without a word, he sent out a strand of Sword Aura to kill him.
"How dare you!"
A man appeared in front of Lin Qi and blocked the strand of Taixu Sword Aura for him.
"Who are you? Why are you trying to kill my son?"
Su Ming frowned slightly at the sight. Through the Eye of Truth, he began inspecting the man's information.
[Lin Zhantian: Human]
[Cultivation: Initial Deity Transformation]
[Spiritual Root: High-Grade Fire Spiritual Root]
"Human?"
Looking at Lin Zhantian's information, Su Ming was slightly surprised.
He had not expected that in this small mortal world, not only was the King of Qin an Initial Deity Transformation Human, but even this non-imperial prince was one as well.
"You are an Awakener too?"
Lin Zhantian looked at Su Ming with a face full of vigilance. Among the Human cultivators at Nascent Soul Great Perfection in Qingzhou, he did not recognize Su Ming.
Su Ming nodded, then looked solemnly at Lin Qi, who had already been frightened senseless behind Lin Zhantian.
"Your son must die. Otherwise, he will become a great calamity in the future!"
After hearing Su Ming's words, Lin Zhantian turned back to look at his son, then looked suspiciously at Su Ming.
"My son has a Top-Grade Fire Spiritual Root. Once he breaks through to Foundation Establishment in the future, he will definitely Awaken. Are you trying to kill the future of the Human race?"
At those words, Su Ming narrowed his eyes.
He knew that no matter what he said next, Lin Zhantian would not believe him.
Facing Lin Zhantian, who was a full major realm above him, Su Ming had no confidence in defeating him.
But if all he had to do was kill Lin Qi, that was not too difficult.
At that thought, the corners of Su Ming's mouth rose slightly.
"If you do not believe me, then forget it. One day, you will regret it."
Su Ming shook his head helplessly, sighed, and turned to leave.
"Hmph! Do you think my Lin family is a place you can come and go from as you please? Since you came here to kill my son, then you should be prepared to be killed yourself."
In the next instant, Lin Zhantian appeared before Su Ming and reached out to grab his throat.
In Lin Zhantian's eyes, Su Ming was only a Nascent Soul cultivator. Even at Nascent Soul Great Perfection, he was still just a slightly larger ant to a Deity Transformation cultivator like him.
But reality slapped him hard in the face.
The Su Ming he thought he could seize at will vanished from right before his eyes for no apparent reason.
"You really think you can kill me?"
Su Ming's voice sounded from behind him. At that moment, Lin Zhantian suddenly realized something.
"No! Do not kill my son! I will let you leave!"
Lin Zhantian did not know how Su Ming had done it. He had clearly locked onto his aura just now.
Yet in a single instant, Su Ming's aura had disappeared, only to reappear beside Lin Qi.
"Let me leave? Do you really think I need your permission?"
Su Ming looked at him with a cold smile and raised his hand, sending a strand of Sword Aura into Lin Qi's glabella.
"No!"
After killing Lin Qi, Su Ming did not linger. He used the Great Void Technique and immediately left the Lin Residence.
After arriving outside, Su Ming took Ye Chuxue and ran back toward the Desolate Village.
Behind them came Lin Zhantian's furious roar, though Su Ming found it strange that the man had not chased after them.
Seven days later, they returned to the Desolate Village once more.
Su Ming did not plan to return directly to the Sword Pavilion.
Now that the matter had been handled, he had to begin the next simulation as quickly as possible.
He had already delayed several days in order to kill Lin Qi.
Su Ming told Ye Chuxue that she would go with him to Youzhou the next day, then went into the house by himself.
"Start simulation!"
[Drawing random talent!]
[Congratulations! You obtained the white talent: Swordsmanship Mastery!]
[Swordsmanship Mastery: Increases the cultivation efficiency of sword techniques by fifty percent!]
[After obtaining Swordsmanship Mastery, you did not feel disappointed just because it was a white talent.]
[On the contrary, with the enhancement of Sword Dao Supreme, the boost brought by Swordsmanship Mastery was exceptionally considerable.]
[The next day, you brought Ye Chuxue onto the road to Youzhou.]
[A month later, you returned to the Sword Pavilion.]
[When Lin Tian saw that you had suddenly brought back a beautiful woman, he was instantly dumbfounded.]
["No way! Little Junior Brother, you said you went back to Qingzhou for something important. So the important matter was picking up girls?"]
["Senior Brother, do not talk nonsense. Chuxue's physique is very special."]
[After that, you explained to Lin Tian about Ye Chuxue's Taiyin Body.]
["Damn! A Taiyin Body? As long as that kind of physique does not die young, she will definitely ascend to the Immortal World in the future!"]
[Having just arrived, Ye Chuxue blushed slightly after hearing Lin Tian's praise and looked somewhat embarrassed.]
[After settling Ye Chuxue in, you informed Lin Tian of your next plan.]
["What? You want to go to the Pill Sect to find Fifth Senior Sister?"]
[You knew Lin Tian would try to stop you, so you revealed your identity as a Fourth-Grade Alchemist.]
[After learning that you were actually a Fourth-Grade Alchemist, Lin Tian's face was filled with nothing but shock, and he no longer tried to stop you from going to the Pill Sect.]
[The next day, you set out alone for Alchemy City.]
[This time, after arriving in Alchemy City, you did not intend to take the examination. Instead, you planned to wait for an opportunity to meet Gu Xinyue directly.]
[After waiting for ten days, the Pill Sect examination finally began, and as you wished, you saw Gu Xinyue.]
[After exchanging a glance with her, you turned and left.]
[That night, Gu Xinyue came to your residence.]
["So you are the Little Junior Brother who joined the Sword Pavilion not long ago?"]
[As she spoke, Gu Xinyue walked to the table and sat down directly across from you.]
["Senior Sister, I need your help!"]
["Oh? But your Senior Sister happens to have important matters to attend to at the moment, so I cannot leave the Pill Sect for now."]
[You naturally knew why Gu Xinyue wanted to remain in the Pill Sect, so you directly took out the Void-Breaking Pill that Gu Xinyue had given you in the previous simulation.]
[At the time, she had refined one batch and produced exactly two Void-Breaking Pills, so she gave the extra one to you, since you were the one who had stolen the spiritual herb back.]
[When Gu Xinyue saw the Void-Breaking Pill in your hand, her eyes widened and her mouth opened slightly.]
["A Void-Breaking Pill! Little Junior Brother, where did you get a Void-Breaking Pill?"]
[You did not explain where the Void-Breaking Pill had come from. Instead, you directly handed it over to her.]
["Senior Sister, I know why you are staying in the Pill Sect. Now that there is already a Void-Breaking Pill, is there still any need for you to remain here?"]
[At this moment, Gu Xinyue put away the smile on her face and began looking at you seriously.]
