Chapter 0489: Starlight Stone

Zuo Jinfei looked at Qin Yun and laughed heartily, "Since you’re pretending to be Qin Yun, I’ll keep my earlier promise. Once I encounter Qin Yun, I will make him kneel and beg for mercy!"

The other members of the Nine Sun Sect stepped back nervously.

"So, you're Qin Yun, right? Will you get on your knees and beg for mercy yourself, or should I force you to?" Zuo Jinfei clenched his fists, looking at Qin Yun with a cold smile.

"You’d better make me kneel! Because I want to see how exactly you plan to do it," Qin Yun slowly stood up, looking at Zuo Jinfei as he spoke.

The others also stood up and hid to the side, afraid the fight would get out of hand.

Zuo Jinfei clenched his fist in anger and said to the people around, "Everyone, sit down and continue drinking! I don’t even need to fight someone like you. I can make him kneel with just one hand!"

"Which hand are you going to use?" Qin Yun asked with a faint smile, showing no fear at all.

Xu Xinxin quickly came over, tugging at Qin Yun’s sleeve to leave, not wanting to see him bullied, "Uncle, let's go quickly!"

Zuo Jinfei glared angrily at Xu Xinxin, raised his right hand, and shouted, "I’ll use the same hand that kills this girl to make you kneel!"

After saying this, his furious palm unleashed a violent aura, sending a chilling gust of wind, swiftly striking towards Xu Xinxin's face.

Qin Yun was also furious in his heart, and his move was even faster. With one hand, he grabbed Zuo Jinfei's descending palm, channeling a powerful surge of mixed Yuan Dao Force!

Zuo Jinfei's arm was instantly struck by the formidable mixed Yuan Dao Force, shattering it into pieces, sending a spray of blood into the air!

The bloody mist, carrying a metallic scent, spread around and slowly faded from view.

"Ah—"

Zuo Jinfei screamed in pain, his arm utterly destroyed, still held in Qin Yun's grasp.

"Didn't you say you were going to make me kneel?" Qin Yun sneered, yanking hard, ripping the arm clean off.

Zuo Jinfei let out another scream!

The members of the Nine Sun Sect were stunned by this scene, standing frozen, unsure of what to do.

They naturally wanted to help Zuo Jinfei, but seeing Qin Yun's strength, they realized he was not someone they could easily deal with.

"You... you really are Qin Yun? Die!" Zuo Jinfei, veins popping in rage, roared as he released the Crocodile Armor Man.

The Crocodile Armor Man was a puppet, as strong as a Spirit Martial Realm expert.

Standing two meters tall, covered in black crocodile skin armor, its armor looked impenetrable.

Xu Xinxin was also frightened, her body trembling in fear as she hid behind Qin Yun.

Seeing the Crocodile Armor Man appear, the crowd panicked, scrambling out the windows, fearing they might get caught in the crossfire.

"Qin Yun, get on your knees and beg for mercy now, the Crocodile Armor Man will surely kill you!"

"Get on your knees, you bastard! If the Crocodile Armor Man starts fighting, this whole town could be leveled. Don’t drag others down with you!"

"The Crocodile Armor Man will grind Qin Yun into paste. This is a Crocodile Armor Man as strong as a Spirit Martial Realm expert!"

The crowd shouted in unison.

Zuo Jinfei, fuming with anger, yelled, "Qin Yun, you've severed my arm... Now, not only will I make you kneel, but I will also eat you alive! Kneeling and begging for mercy won't save you now. Prepare to die!"

He controlled the Crocodile Armor Man to charge at Qin Yun!

Qin Yun frowned, unleashed Jushensha, and focused his mental energy to strike every part of the Crocodile Armor Man.

When dealing with puppets like this, mental energy attacks are the most effective.

Everyone was filled with anticipation, watching the Crocodile Armor Man charge forward, as they all believed that Qin Yun would soon be torn apart by this Crocodile Armor Man!

However, just as the Crocodile Armor Man reached Qin Yun, it suddenly stopped moving!

At the moment the Crocodile Armor Man stopped, Qin Yun pulled out a Dao Artifact black blade and fiercely slashed at the Crocodile Armor Man, not using any martial techniques, just powerful slashes!

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

The large blade slashed, emitting a howl like that of a forest!

The Crocodile Armor Man, despite its formidable defense, was chopped into pieces by Qin Yun as if it were mere wood!

"Master Zuo, go after that girl now!" the black-clothed rogue suddenly shouted.

Zuo Jinfei reacted, glanced at the shocked Xu Xinxin next to Qin Yun, and threw a fierce punch through the air, unleashing a powerful Dao Force!

Qin Yun casually waved his hand, dispersing the Dao Force, and then hurled a small flying knife at Zuo Jinfei!

With a sharp whoosh, the flying knife sliced through the air and struck Zuo Jinfei's head, piercing it cleanly!

Subsequently, under Qin Yun's control, the flying knife also flew towards the black-clothed rogue.

The black-clothed rogue's head also had a hole, killed by the flying knife!

The flying knife returned to Qin Yun's hand, not stained with any blood, looking very clean, still gleaming with a cold light.

Zuo Jinfei, who claimed to be able to kill a Spirit Martial Realm expert, was dead, and his Platinum Martial Spirit was also extracted by Qin Yun.

After dispatching Zuo Jinfei, Qin Yun simply sat back down and continued eating, as though nothing had occurred.

Everyone stared at him, utterly shocked!

The charming woman whispered, "You... are you truly Qin Yun?"

"I never claimed to be an imposter; you just didn't believe me!" Qin Yun smiled, then let Xu Xinxin sit down, saying, "Xinxin, continue eating!"

Xu Xinxin had been scared too, but having weathered many storms, she quickly regained her composure.

"Qin Yun, you should leave quickly! Zuo Jinfei's Nine Sun Sect is nearby, and if the news gets back, the people from the Nine Sun Sect will surely come, and among them are many Ninth Layer Martial Path experts!" the charming woman said.

Qin Yun knew that the Nine Sun Sect had likely established a base within the ancient garden.

Xu Xinxin murmured, "Brother Yun, let's leave! It's my treat, so it's okay to waste it."

Qin Yun nodded, "Alright, let's skip the rest."

After saying that, he walked over, gathered Zuo Jinfei's body, and declared, "We'll return Zuo Jinfei's corpse to the Nine Sun Sect!"

The charming woman thought Qin Yun was leaving, but his words left her stunned.

Xu Xinxin frowned slightly, "Brother Yun, are you sure about this?"

"I was a bit too forceful earlier and ended up killing him. I feel somewhat guilty, so returning his body is the least I can do." Qin Yun smiled, gently patting Xu Xinxin's head.

Looking at the charming woman with a shocked expression, he asked, "Miss, could you take me to the Golden Sun Sect? I'll give you ten thousand purple crystal coins as a reward!"

Although this charming woman was a disciple of the Golden Sun Sect, she truly admired Qin Yun.

Having heard various legends about Qin Yun before, she had always admired him. Now, seeing him in person, he was indeed as impressive as the legends said!

"Alright!" The charming woman nodded and then turned to walk toward the door.

Xu Xinxin also settled the bill, spending nearly two hundred thousand purple crystal coins.

Qian Chao from the Strange Patterns Hall had been watching all along, not daring to say much, as he could sense Qin Yun's terrifying Primordial Dao Force. Such power was beyond his ability to handle. He could only use a communication talisman to contact other powerful members of the Strange Patterns Hall, urging them to send reinforcements quickly.

The other disciples of the Golden Sun Sect didn't dare to say a word! Zuo Jinfei, who was stronger than them, had died so miserably. And he was killed by Qin Yun, who seemed to be chatting and laughing casually.

Their cultivation was only at the Third Layer of the Martial Path, and they stood no chance against Qin Yun!

Even though their sect was very powerful in the Nine Wastelands, they were utterly terrified in the face of Qin Yun's overwhelming strength, not daring to make a sound!

The Golden Sun Sect was indeed very close to the town, and it took just over half an hour to reach it. The charming woman leading Qin Yun was named Qiu Yu, a disciple of the Fire Sun Sect.

Many curious onlookers followed behind, wanting to see how Qin Yun would return Zuo Jinfei's body to the Golden Sun Sect!

The Golden Sun Sect, temporarily built within the Ancient Garden, was quite simple, just a small manor. However, it was considered a powerful force in this area!

At the entrance of the Golden Sun Sect stood several elders at the Ninth Layer of the Martial Path. They seemed to have received the message that Zuo Jinfei had been killed.

And the one who killed Zuo Jinfei was none other than Qin Yun, a prominent figure in Wuhuang!

Soon, several elders from the Strange Patterns Hall arrived, all at the Ninth Layer of the Martial Path.

These Ninth Layer Martial Path warriors had been here for a long time, suppressing their cultivation. Otherwise, if they stepped into the Spiritual Martial Realm, they would have to leave.

Thus, the Ninth Layer Martial Path warriors in the Ancient Garden were still quite powerful.

The elders of the Golden Sun Sect coldly said, "So you really are Qin Yun! I never expected you to enter the Ancient Garden! Outside, you've killed many of our Golden Sun Sect's outstanding disciples!"

"Now, you've killed another one of our disciples, and you still have the audacity to bring the body back!"

Qin Yun took out Zuo Jinfei's body and threw it on the ground, saying, "He tried to kill me first!"

It was clear to everyone that Qin Yun wasn't here to return the body but to provoke the Golden Sun Sect!

The elders of the Golden Sun Sect, seeing the body on the ground, were furious but didn't dare to act rashly, as they were waiting for reinforcements from other sects.

Qian Chao from the Strange Patterns Hall suddenly stepped forward and said to Xu Xinxin, "Little girl, the stone you sold me has a problem. It's not a true royal-grade spiritual material! I want a refund!"

"Ah... but, but I only have one million purple crystal coins left!" Xu Xinxin was surprised, glancing at Qin Yun and then whispering.

The elders of the Golden Sun Sect, seeing the Strange Patterns Hall getting involved, nodded in satisfaction.

"What if I prove that this stone is a royal-grade spiritual material?" Qin Yun sneered.

"If you can really prove it, then the stone is yours, and I won't ask for the purple crystal coins back!" An elder from the Strange Patterns Hall walked over and sneered, "This stone can absorb human blood, but it's just a low-quality Star-Speckled Stone, not a Shining Star Stone!"

Qin Yun took the stone and said, "The Shining Star Stone has great hardness and is difficult to melt. It's an excellent material for crafting small, sharp weapons. When combined with Imperial Bone Steel, its hardness can rival that of a mystical weapon!"

"Exactly! We don't have the strength to refine a royal-grade spiritual artifact, so we can't prove it!" The elder sneered.

"You can't refine it, but I can!" Qin Yun smiled, taking out the Heavenly Lion Subduing Dragon Cauldron, and said, "I'll refine this stone into a royal-grade spiritual artifact right now, proving that it's a true Shining Star Stone!"
