If Ling Yushi was lying and what happened at Celestial Wolf Mountain was fake, then all of the Ling Family members were traitors. If it was like that, even if Qin Lie was killed, it was deserved!
“Zzzt zzzt zzzt!”
Under everyone’s stares, an electric current suddenly began to concentrate and interweave around the sculpture held within Qin Lie’s raised left hand, forming a giant web of discharging lightning.
Upon flying into the web of lightning, the golden bird which had been condensed out of Du Heng’s spirit energy was hit by the discharging electric current and instantly dissipated into nothingness.
Not even waiting for Du Heng to react, Qin Lie, who had long since known it would be like this, suddenly appeared beside Du Heng, his right lightning-covered fist violently rumbled and shot towards Du Heng’s chest.
Du Heng’s face was full of shock as he hurriedly regathered spirit energy. He was only barely able to condense a small cluster of golden clouds atop his hand before having to turn and welcome Qin Lie’s fist.
“Boom!”
The sound of exploding thunder suddenly emanated over from the two colliding fists, causing everyone’s ears to ring.
The golden cloud atop Du Heng’s hand was immediately blown up by the lightning and dispersed into small, twinkling golden stars. The serene blue lightning became increasingly fierce and violent as it followed along Du Heng’s fist and twined around his arm. It was as if a blue electric snake had begun to spread around Du Heng’s entire body!
Furthermore, his body flew back, as if it had been hit by a charging armored chariot, with his feet in the air, unable to touch the ground.
“Thump!”
He was unable to control himself as he was forced all the way back, to the side of Du Fei’s stretcher. He fell bottom first onto the stretcher, knocking into the bruised Du Fei, and also caused him to shriek miserably.
“Th-this truly Qin Lie? Have my eyes gone blind?”
“I-I remember I used to curse at him for being a fool. I hope… I hope he didn’t hear me.”
“Heavens, is this the true Qin Lie?!”
As if it were their first time meeting him, all of the Ling Family members looked at Qin Lie as if they were looking at a monster.
Especially Ling Xuanxuan. As she gazed at Qin Lie, she nervously grinded her teeth with an extremely complex look in her eyes…
Ye Yangqiu also stared blankly for a moment. Clearly, he had also been shocked by Qin Lie as he finally began to truly consider Ling Yushi’s statements and felt that they might actually be true.
Under the rows of amazed gazes, Qin Lie didn’t stay his hand. Like a cruel and fierce beast which had gone mad, he continued chasing after Du Heng, seemingly wanting to take advantage of when Du Heng couldn’t gather spirit energy to kill him on the spot.
This violent, wild, overbearing, and crazed aura immediately astonished everyone and caused their expressions to all suddenly change.
Before Qin Lie had made his move, he had seemed delicate and pretty, his thin figure making him look as weak as a girl.
But as soon as he had launched an attack, he seemed to have turned into a fierce primitive beast. That kind of violent, crazed, fierce aura, along with the booming sounds of exploding thunder and lightning had so greatly contrasted with his weak first impression that everyone was thoroughly dumbfounded!
They couldn’t help but begin to doubt, doubt if the calm Qin Lie from before and the current violent Qin Lie were two different people.
“Little brute! You’re courting death!”
Seeing Qin Lie rush over, Du Jiaolan’s hair began to fly wildly. She wretchedly cried out as a purple colored halo began to flash around her body and was about to make a move to kill.
Upon seeing her stance, Ling Chengye cried out and rushed towards Du Jiaolan.
Du Haitian’s expression was insidious, his face cold, as he himself was also about to get involved.
Ling Yushi, Ling Xuanxuan, Ling Chengzhi, and the rest of the Ling Family members also began to cry out. The scene within the courtyard was almost out of control.
“All of you, stop!”
At this time, Ye Yangqiu’s ruthless ice-cold voice emanated. Like a ghost, he suddenly appeared beside Qin Lie and placed his hands on Qin Lie’s shoulders. Afterwards, he darkly gazed upon Du Haitian.
As soon as those hands were placed on him, Qin Lie felt as though a huge mountain was pressing down on him, that his feet were encased in lead. Unable to move, he could only give up on chasing Du Heng.
He looked at the skinny, middle-aged, and hunched figure next to Du Heng who wore the black robes of an artificer, his eyes frigid.
Qin Lie had been secretly hiding in the crowd earlier, quietly observing. He discovered that Du Jiaolan now had one more artificer and immediately determined that this artificer was definitely the one who had broken the formation Herb Mountain. Thus, he had felt extreme distaste towards the Du Family.
Later on, when he saw how the D
