Chapter 0078 Snatched

Qin Yun had never seen Heavy Spirit Jade before, but he had heard of it.

This was an extremely precious mineral. It was said that a piece of Heavy Spirit Jade the size of a thumb would gradually increase in weight if continuously heated, eventually weighing dozens of pounds.

The higher the quality of the flame used to heat it, the heavier and harder the Heavy Spirit Jade would become!

Soon, Yang Shiyue also found a piece of Heavy Spirit Jade. Since it was for refining artifacts, she gave it to Qin Yun.

This large black stone had been completely shattered by them, yielding a total of three pieces of Heavy Spirit Jade.

"The next one is this rock!" Qin Yun smiled as he looked at another massive stone, full of anticipation. He swung his forging hammer and shattered it with one strike, revealing two red glows inside.

At that moment, both Qin Yun and Yang Shiyue felt a terrifying aura surge toward them, causing the ground to tremble!

A powerful wave of internal energy rushed over!

Yang Shiyue's expression changed, and she quickly threw herself at Qin Yun, pushing him away to safety.

"It's Master Wei!" Qin Yun was shocked and furious.

Master Wei and his group had arrived and attacked them, indicating that the two red glows from within the stone must be something incredibly valuable.

After Yang Shiyue got up, she immediately rushed toward Master Wei.

Qin Yun hurriedly dashed towards the two red minerals.

Wei Xuankun, Yan Yun, and several other youths also charged over, unleashing waves of internal energy at Qin Yun.

Qin Yun had no choice but to retreat and dodge; if hit, he would be severely injured or even killed.

"Haha, Void Spirit Stone! What a big piece!" Wei Xuankun picked up a square stone glowing red and laughed loudly.

"I got one too!" The young man beside him also laughed triumphantly. He was the Third Prince of the Tian Qi Empire, accompanied by several powerful elders.

Among this group, the strongest was General Yuan, who was at the Seventh Level of Martial Body.

With Yang Shiyue absent, Qin Yun did not dare to approach. He could only clench his fists and watch as they took the two Void Spirit Stones.

Especially Wei Xuankun and Yan Yun, who were particularly excited because they had stolen something valuable from Qin Yun. Seeing his anger, they were elated.

"Kun Brother, Qin Yun is alone now. Should we..." Yan Yun whispered, her beautiful face filled with malice.

Qin Yun possessed many valuable items, including the blueprint for the Giant Spirit King Hammer and a storage spirit artifact.

This tempted many people, making them consider robbing him.

Seeing the greed and viciousness on Wei Xuankun's group's faces, Qin Yun clenched his teeth tightly...

Just then, Master Wei's urgent shout came from afar: "Quickly withdraw!"

Wei Xuankun and the others suddenly remembered that Yang Shiyue had a terrifying Moon Martial Soul, whose power was unfathomable!

They had taken the Void Spirit Stones, and Yang Shiyue had seen it. If they harmed Qin Yun further, she would surely seek revenge at any cost, assuming she survived.

Wei Xuankun and the others fled, splitting into two groups with the Third Prince of Tian Qi.

After they left, Qin Yun glanced over at Yang Shiyue, who was still battling Master Wei.

Master Wei was a Runes Master with numerous spirit artifacts and talismans, making him difficult to defeat.

"Wei Xuankun, you'll pay for this! I will get my revenge!" Qin Yun ran out of the large crater, following the direction Wei Xuankun's group had taken, searching for any traces they left behind.

Void Spirit Stone was essential for crafting spatial storage spirit artifacts. It was very rare; adding just a little bit, combined with spatial runes, could create a storage spirit artifact.

Wei Xuankun and the Third Prince of Tian Qi had taken two large pieces, which Qin Yun and Yang Shiyue had discovered first, making them rightfully theirs!

Qin Yun secretly tracked Wei Xuankun's group, leaving secret marks along the way.

These marks were agreed upon with Yang Shiyue to help them find each other if separated.

His tracking skills were strong, learned from Ding Tianchun, and Wei Xuankun's group had not bothered to erase their tracks when leaving.

...

Late at night, Qin Yun tracked them to an open area where Wei Xuankun's group had set up tents. There were more than ten of them in total.

Surrounding the open area were tall trees, and Qin Yun hid among them.

He observed carefully. Among the group were Wei Xuankun, Yan Yun, General Yuan, and his daughter Yuan Yanying. The rest were students closely associated with Wei Xuankun, all at the Fifth Level of Martial Body.

Qin Yun was most wary of General Yuan, who was at the Seventh Level of Martial Body and battle-hardened, making him a formidable opponent.

Having perfected the Profound Sun Art, he could control his internal energy to the point where he could breathe through his pores without making any sound, keeping his body temperature consistent with the surroundings.

Even highly sensitive beasts would have difficulty detecting his presence.

He waited patiently in the trees near the edge of the clearing.

Suddenly, someone emerged from one of the tents—it was Wei Xuankun!

Yan Yun followed him out.

Wei Xuankun approached General Yuan's tent, spoke a few words, and then General Yuan emerged, joining Wei Xuankun and Yan Yun as they walked into the dark, quiet forest.

They were heading straight toward Qin Yun!

Wei Xuankun and the others entered the forest, stopping about fifty meters away from Qin Yun.

Qin Yun focused his mind and listened to their conversation.

It was deep into the night, very quiet. Although he was dozens of meters away, he could still hear Wei Xuankun's voice.

"General Yuan, Yuan Yanying's fiancé is Qin Tianyi, but ever since he was injured by Qin Yun, I haven't seen him at Hualing Martial Arts Academy. He must be completely crippled by now!" Wei Xuankun said in a low voice.

"It's all because of that little bastard Qin Yun!" General Yuan growled angrily.

Hearing this, Qin Yun couldn't help but feel a surge of anger. When Grand Tutor had cured Yuan Yanying's strange illness, General Yuan had been immensely grateful. Now, he was cursing him like this.

Wei Xuankun chuckled sinisterly. "There is a way for her not to marry Qin Tianyi!"

General Yuan was startled and glanced at Yan Yun beside him before hurriedly asking, "What way?"

"By making Yuan Yanying my concubine!" Wei Xuankun's words sent a shock through Qin Yun, who was listening from afar.

Yan Yun was right there, yet he dared to say it out loud. It seemed he had already received Yan Yun's consent, indicating something suspicious was going on.

General Yuan's strength was far too weak compared to those aristocratic families. While Yuan Yanying had decent talent, she didn't match up to Yan Yun. The Yuan family had no real leverage to attract Wei Xuankun and Yan Yun's attention.

"Why is that?" General Yuan asked, puzzled and looking at Yan Yun in surprise.

"This is my father's idea. With his support, even the Empress can't object, especially since Qin Tianyi has already been crippled."

Wei Xuankun suddenly lowered his voice and continued, "The main reason is that my father has just obtained a unique cultivation technique that only young men can practice. It involves combining Yin and Yang energies, requiring the practitioner to join with a young woman who has cultivated inner essence! Since Yuan Yanying is still a maiden, she is perfect for practicing with me. Not only will it benefit me, but she will also rapidly improve her cultivation."

Yan Yun, standing beside him, also whispered with a smile, "After practicing with Kun, I broke through to the Fifth Level of Martial Body!"
