How can I have a heart of a demonic god in my body?!

Chapter 70: Chapter 0070 Qiu Xinxin

Facing the delay tactics of the Water Moon Sect, the Yunyue Sect was helpless.

Men who renege are despised, but when women renege, it seems to be a privilege.

“This Water Moon Sect, who knows what they are up to.”

“They are quite wary of Nephew Chen’s strength, aware they have no chance of winning, and so they are deliberately dragging things out…”

The higher-ranking elders of the Yunyue Sect expressed their worries.

After this battle, the Water Moon Sect will have a profound understanding of Yunyue Sect’s Meridian Passage Level strength and will certainly have corresponding countermeasures.

An hour later.

Sky Cloud Hall.

The Yunyue Sect Master’s face was aglow with happiness as he distributed rewards to several disciples.

“Winning a match will earn three thousand Grade Essence Stones and one jin (approximately 1.1 pounds) of iron meteorite. Even the defeated will be rewarded with one thousand Grade Essence Stones,”

smiled the Blue Robed Sect Master.

Inside the grand hall, there were also some high-ranking elders, including some True Disciples and elite disciples.

The elite disciples were very tempted by these rewards.

Especially, that one jin of iron meteorite!

Chen Yu won two matches, obtaining six thousand Grade Essence Stones and two jin of iron meteorites.

However,

what he received were not Grade Essence Stones but sixty pieces of lustrously colored genuine yuan stones.

Genuine yuan stones, one piece can be exchanged for one hundred Grade Essence Stones; within the sect, they are considered ‘large denomination’ currency, with high value and easy to carry.

Additionally, he received a token with a Herb Hall symbol on it.

Qiu Yue’er came next, obtaining three thousand Grade Essence Stones and one jin of iron meteorite, her mouth slightly pouting, as if it hadn’t met her expectations.

The remaining two.

Wan Dong and Shi Chuan, with faces of shame and reluctance, accepted the “consolation reward” of one thousand Grade Essence Stones.

“Go to the Herb Hall and exchange for ‘Clearing Qi Pills’.”

Chen Yu held the token, pleasantly satisfied.

According to the Master, the rarity of the Clearing Qi Pills was even higher than that of the Qi Storage Pills.

He had originally planned to trade the “Qi Storage Pills” even if he had to, just to get the “Clearing Qi Pills” in hand.

Unexpectedly. This tri-sect gambling battle brought him the opportunity.

He had just stepped out of the grand hall.

“Chen Yu!”

A familiar female voice came, not so polite.

Huh?

Chen Yu glanced over, first noticing the charming and beautiful Qiu Yue’er, her sparkling eyes holding a trace of reluctance.

“Junior Sister Qiu, are you looking for me?”

Chen Yu asked curiously.

This girl, as the granddaughter of an elder, had always been haughty and disdainful of interacting with Chen Yu.

“It’s me who’s looking for you.”

A melodious and pleasant female voice came from behind Qiu Yue’er.

Immediately,

a gorgeous form, slender and graceful, appeared before Chen Yu.

On closer look,

Chen Yu felt a moment of astonishment!

The woman wore a dress blue as the sky, her long hair draped over her shoulders, pristine; her tall and beautiful figure stood a head taller than Qiu Yue’er, evoking a sense of reverence, like the holy statue of a goddess.

Especially that delicate and gentle face, serene and transcendent, her skin as pure as driven snow.

Her features were exquisitely flawless, her beautiful eyes as clear as autumn water, lucid and bright, seemingly with a power that penetrates the soul, making one dare not look directly.

“Good heavens! It’s Qiu Xinxin!”

“Qiu Xinxin? The True Disciple known as the number one beauty of the inner gates?”

Several disciples from a distance gaped at the blue-gowned beauty, utterly infatuated.

“This is my sister, Qiu Xinxin.”

Qiu Yue’er huffed, seemingly discontented that Chen Yu took an extra glance at her sister.

“Oh, it’s Senior Sister Qiu, what can I do for you?”

Chen Yu was puzzled.

He and Qiu Yue’er were not close, let alone this exquisitely beautiful top beauty of the inner gates.

However,

her facial features and poise were indeed a pleasant sight. Not just her figure and looks, but also her serene and gentle charm was something most men favored in their hearts.

“It is like this. I heard that Junior Brother Chen acquired two jin of iron meteorite, and it so happens that I urgently need good materials for Artifact Refining to refine a precious weapon.”

Qiu Xinxin smiled, her elegance blooming like a freshly opened lotus.

That moment of splendor left people breathless. Nearby disciples had their eyes wide open.

“Senior Sister Qiu smiles very beautifully, truly befitting the first beauty of the inner gates…”

Chen Yu, captivated and heart racing, unconsciously praised.

The beauty before him, in terms of appearance and temperament, was basically the highest among all the female disciples of Yunyue Sect whom Chen Yu had seen.

Mu Xueqing and Qiu Yue’er were also beautiful, but due to their age, they still appeared youthful.

Whereas Qiu Xinxin, at seventeen or eighteen, was at the purest and most beautiful age for a girl to blossom.

“You playboy!”

Qiu Yue’er scolded with a voice full of anger, stepping in front of Chen Yu as if worried he had ulterior motives.

“That was a compliment! Don’t you understand what that means?”

Chen Yu was speechless.

To receive such reproach for praising a beauty seemed absurd.

“Hmm! You surely harbor improper thoughts towards my sister.”

Qiu Yue’er said indignantly.

“Qiu Yue’er, don’t be rude…”

Qiu Xinxin quickly intervened and blushed slightly when she received Chen Yu’s compliment.

Indeed.

Chen Yu had been open and respectful in his admiration, his gaze clear, without a hint of sacrilege, and his words of praise were not excessive.

“Alright then! I ask you, are you willing to trade those two jin of iron meteorite?”

Qiu Yue’er asked scornfully.

“Iron meteorite? I am sorry…”

Chen Yu showed the Xuan Heavy Sword hanging at his side.

His intention was clear.

The iron meteorite, I need it for weapon refinement as well.

This was not an excuse by Chen Yu.

His Xuan Heavy Sword was originally a failed attempt at forging a mid-grade magic weapon. If he added some precious materials, it might well be improved a grade in the future.

“Stingy! If you want to chase my sister, you can’t even part with that much.”

Qiu Yue’er sneered disdainfully.

Chase your sister?

Chen Yu retorted irritably, “Just because I spare your sister an extra glance, you think I want to chase her. How many times have you looked at me? Are you planning to chase after me?”

“You… you’re twisting words and forcing logic!”

Qiu Yue’er’s pretty face flushed red with anger, and her inner energy surged, almost leading her to take action.

Whoosh!

Chen Yu’s figure swayed, and he moved from his spot, laughing out loud: “I’m leaving.”

If I can’t handle provocation, can’t I at least evade it?

These two sisters were the elder’s granddaughters; one of them was even a True Disciple, the number one beauty among the inner disciples.

Experience told Chen Yu that such women were trouble.

Not to mention from afar, Mu Xueqing from before was one example, didn’t she bring Chen Yu a lot of trouble?

“So, this is the Chen Yu you spoke of, the one who turned the tide in today’s bet? This man is indeed quite intriguing, seemingly avoiding us at all costs.”

Qiu Xinxin smiled gracefully as she watched Chen Yu’s retreating figure.

“Hmph! He’s nothing but brute strength and thick skin. Wait until the day after tomorrow’s bet with the Water Moon Sect, he’ll definitely be targeted. Let’s see how he maintains his glory then.”

Qiu Yue’er pouted.

…

Herb Hall.

Inside a hall fragrant with medicinal herbs.

Chen Yu handed over an amulet to a gaunt elder.

“Mmm, with this amulet, you may receive a Clearing Qi Pill.”

The gaunt elder nodded in approval.

Soon after.

The elder retrieved a brown jade bottle, inside which a greenish and transparent elixir shimmered faintly, its surface exuding a layer of light-colored ripples.

“Thank you, senior.”

Chen Yu was overjoyed to receive the elixir.

Before leaving.

The gaunt elder added, “Be careful in the day after tomorrow’s bet. The Water Moon Sect will definitely target you.”

Chen Yu was taken aback. Had this elder watched today’s bet?

“May I ask senior, in what ways will the Water Moon Sect target me?”

Chen Yu inquired.

“Hehe, how should I know specifically? To target you, naturally means to hit where you’re weakest. You should consider what your weaknesses might be.”

The elder said with a smile.

Upon hearing this.

Chen Yu’s heart skipped a beat, and he quickly thanked the man. While he seemed to have not directly answered, he had indeed pointed out the direction.

“Weakness?”

Chen Yu pondered thoughtfully.

His greatest strengths were his power and defense, but in terms of speed and movement technique, he didn’t have any obvious deficiencies.

But suddenly.

Chen Yu remembered that during the outer disciples’ competition, he almost fell prey to Nangong Li’s two spiritual secret techniques.

…

Returning to his dwelling.

Chen Yu didn’t think further; he sat down cross-legged and directly consumed the “Clearing Qi Pill.”

The violent energy and some impurities in his body were already an unstable factor.

Once the Clearing Qi Pill was ingested.

A cool and calming flow spread from his stomach, quieting Chen Yu’s mind mysteriously. His inner Yunyue energy stirred at first, and then settled down.

That mysterious medicinal power was spreading little by little, integrating into his meridians, permeating his flesh and blood.

“The Clearing Qi Pill needs ten days to a fortnight to take full effect, dispelling the evil energy and purifying the meridians… ”

Chen Yu wore a smile.

Hum!

Suddenly, there surged a familiar “suction” from the region of his heart. The elixir’s restorative essence was absorbed at an astonishing rate, swiftly integrating with his body’s meridians.

“That was fast!”

Chen Yu was shocked. All he could do was control his Yunyue energy and embrace the potent medicinal effect.

In less than an hour.

Chen Yu’s flesh and meridians, including his entire inner energy, had been “cleansed” by that medicinal flow.

Drip, drip!

Threads of filthy, dark droplets trickled down, exuding an odor of corrupted blood, from Chen Yu’s body.

These dark droplets were expelled from within his body.

In the end.

The droplets settled in front of him, forming a “tainted blood sphere,” radiating an astonishingly sinister energy and solidifying into a thumb-sized “tainted blood pearl.”

“That’s way too fast!”

Chen Yu exclaimed in amazement. The result that usually took ten days to a fortnight to achieve was absorbed in just one day, and the outcome was remarkably good.

Under the “suction” of the mysterious heart, there was almost no chance for the medicinal effect to dissipate.

In that moment.

Chen Yu felt completely refreshed; his meridians were full of vitality and resilience. His inner Yunyue energy was even purer, possibly surpassing the average Late-stage Meridian Passage.

Whoosh, boom!

Chen Yu swung his fist, sending Qi tumbling as if he unleashed a python-shaped, faint black cloud in midair.

The Evil Qi became even purer and more domineering!

This Clearing Qi Pill’s effect was probably more than twice as effective as for the average person.

“What is this thing?”

Chen Yu picked up the solidified “tainted blood pearl” from the ground.

Upon touching it, he felt a chilling sinister energy that made him shiver with fear and palpitation.

Ordinarily.

Even if others had the same opportunity as Chen Yu to obtain a blood pool and took a Clearing Qi Pill, they wouldn’t be able to produce such a “tainted blood pearl.”

Because for others, the pill would take ten days to a fortnight to show its miraculous effects, with the evil energy dissipating very slowly throughout the process.

Due to the mysterious heart, Chen Yu forced the pill’s effects to the maximum within half an hour, achieving results far surpassing others.

This coincidental result led to the formation of this frighteningly tainted blood pearl.

Chen Yu felt the pearl was no ordinary object and securely stored it away.
