Rrrip——

In an instant, his clothes were shattered into tattered strips that scattered in every direction.

At the sight, Qin Yu swallowed hard in fear.

Heavens above!

Before setting out, he had specially put on a defensive immortal robe in case of emergencies, and this person had turned it into rags with a single move?

Thank goodness he’d listened to the system’s advice. Otherwise, the thing blown to pieces right now wouldn’t have been his defensive robe, but him.

A gust of sinister wind swept past. Qin Yu shivered, and his pretty face squeezed out an ingratiating smile. “Look, I’m no match for you anyway, so why don’t you just let me go…” Before he could finish, he felt an ice-cold hand caressing his bare back, and his scalp went numb. “What are you doing?!”

The person behind him pressed closer, resting his head in the crook of Qin Yu’s neck. “Isn’t it obvious? I’m touching you.”

Qin Yu squirmed uneasily. “No, wait, big brother, whatever I’ve got, you’ve got too. Why don’t you touch yourself instead?”

“That’s no fun.”

The man pulled the other end of the black silk band tied over Qin Yu’s eyes, then landed a slap on his backside. “Stop moving, or I’ll have my way with you first and kill you after.”

Qin Yu didn’t dare move again.

With his sight suddenly taken away, every other sense was magnified several times over. He could feel, all too clearly, that hand teasing and wandering over his body: his back, then his chest, then sliding down from above until it reached the waistband of his trousers.

In a panic, he clamped his legs together and struggled with all his might. “I’m warning you, my master is Immortal Lord Yazheng! If you dare do anything to me, he will never let you off!”

The man’s wandering hand paused. In the darkness, a spark of playful interest lit his beautiful fox-like eyes. Was this little swindler trying to threaten him with his own title?

“I’ve heard Immortal Lord Yazheng is cold and heartless, and never meddles in other people’s business. Are you sure he’d stand up for you?”

“Of course!”

Hmph. That damned pervert would never stand up for me, but do I have to let you know that?

Following the principle of “if bluffing doesn’t kill you, bluff until it does,” Qin Yu began listing, one thing after another, just how “good” Immortal Lord Yazheng was to him.

“My master may be cold and reserved, but he dotes on me, his disciple, more than anything. He gives me top-grade elixirs, excuses me from tedious lessons, and even stays by my side when I have nightmares… In short, my master is the ‘best’ to me in all the world!”

Listening to Qin Yu praise him to the heavens and back, a surge of impulse called excitement slowly ignited in Yu Lancheng’s scarlet, sinister eyes. He truly wanted to see what kind of face the little swindler would make upon learning that the man he’d been praising sky-high was right in front of him!

“Does Immortal Lord Yazheng really ‘dote’ on you that much?”

The faint thrill in that voice gave Qin Yu goosebumps all over. Why did the word “dote” sound so off coming from this man’s mouth?

Forget it. Escaping comes first.

“Of course. My master dotes on me so, so much.” Worried this man might take a drastic turn and destroy all evidence of his corpse, he quickly added, “As long as you let me go now, I swear on my soul I’ll never pursue this matter.”

What a little swindler, so good at playing people!

Yu Lancheng cupped his face, his tone both suggestive and thrilled. “But I want you to pursue it to the very end. I want to see with my own eyes how your good master ‘dotes’ on you.”

Qin Yu froze completely. Why didn’t this man ever play by the rules?

“Aren’t you afraid of Yaz… of my master?”

“Afraid? I’m terrified.”

Ha. Then at least act a little scared!

Qin Yu shut down entirely.

This man was absolutely his nemesis. Not even Yu Lancheng had ever frustrated him to the point of a heart attack like this!

Just destroy me already!

Yu Lancheng came around in front of him, nearly pressing his face against Qin Yu’s. “Your master doesn’t know what I look like yet. So he doesn’t go after the wrong person, why don’t you take a look at my face?”

He phrased it as a question, but he gave Qin Yu no chance to refuse. His long fingers brushed lightly, and the black silk wrapped around Qin Yu’s eyes snapped.

【Friendly reminder: This person’s cultivation has broken through to the Tribulation Transcendence stage. Host, please think carefully about whether to look at his face.】

The man’s voice and the system’s sounded almost at the same moment.

Qin Yu instantly caught the key detail in the system’s words. “Tribulation stage? Didn’t the book say only Immortal Lord Yazheng… Damn it! Right now, knock me out this instant!”

The system seemed to have been waiting for exactly that. In less than a second, Qin Yu’s head lolled to the side and he slipped into unconsciousness.

Seeing him pass out, all the excitement drained from Yu Lancheng’s handsome face. He pinched Qin Yu’s chin, leaving a flushed crescent-shaped mark there. “You faint right on time, every single time. Could you have some special fainting technique?”

His interest gone, Yu Lancheng flung the corpse off the nearby rack, laid Qin Yu on it instead, and, seeing him barely covered, kindly draped a white cloth over him.

“Forget it. I’ll let you off for today.”

……

Clang, clatter——

Qin Yu woke to the noise. When he opened his eyes, all he saw was white. He lay there dazed for a good while before his head cleared.

“What did that damned pervert do after I passed out?”

【He placed the host on the rack, covered you with a white cloth, and left.】

Damn it! Does he think I’m a corpse? He even covered me with a white sheet.

“Is that pervert still here?”

【Not at present.】

Good.

Looks like he’d survived yet another calamity safe and sound.

He got up from the rack and, finding himself barely covered, fashioned the white cloth into a simple garment and put it on. The whole time he was dressing, the chaotic din outside never stopped. He asked, “What’s going on out there?”

【Guided by his male-lead halo, Jiang Fu and the others found Qu’an Village. At daybreak, the village chief brought them to inspect the corpses, and for some reason the corpses suddenly woke up and attacked them in a frenzy.】

Bang——

Suddenly, a slender figure crashed through the door and tumbled inside.

Qin Yu turned to look and found that the one who’d fallen in was Liu Yunbai. Her blue-and-white robes were soaked through with blood, and her lovely face bore several new wounds.

Is the female lead’s face ruined now?

Heedless of her injuries, Liu Yunbai scrambled up and kept fighting the walking corpses. As she turned, she caught sight of Qin Yu not far away. A spark of desperate hope instantly lit her dimmed eyes. She opened her mouth but no sound came out; he could only faintly make out the words “Save me.”

Just then, two more walking corpses burst in from outside and lunged at her. With no way to split herself in two, she could only watch helplessly as they drew closer and closer.

Without time to analyze the situation, Qin Yu rushed over, kicked the two corpses back out, lopped off the heads of the two in front of her with the Four Beasts Token, and pulled Liu Yunbai aside to take cover.

“What happened? How did you get hurt this badly?” He wanted to take a healing pill out of his Sumeru ring for her, only to find that his consciousness couldn’t enter the ring at all.

“What’s going on? Why can’t I get into my Sumeru ring?”

【Host, hurry and save your mission!】

A red-robed walking corpse was trying to ambush Jiang Fu from behind, but Jiang Fu could barely handle the corpses in front of him and hadn’t noticed the danger at his back. Liu Yunbai noticed, though. She suddenly shoved Qin Yu away and shot forward like an arrow to shield Jiang Fu’s back.

Watching the red-robed corpse close in, she shut her eyes in despair.

In the end, I still couldn’t escape it.

It all happened too fast. Luckily, the system warned Qin Yu. He dashed over in an instant, pulled Liu Yunbai behind him, and swept his sword in a horizontal arc, cutting the red-robed corpse clean in half at the waist.

The law that walking corpses neither rot nor decay, never die and never rest, was like a sheet of torn paper before the Four Beasts Token, shattering at the slightest touch. Dark red blood sprayed out, and a putrid stench hit him full in the face. Caught off guard, Qin Yu inhaled a huge mouthful, and the nausea shot straight to his brain.

Blegh~

Qin Yu threw up last night’s dinner.

Only then did Jiang Fu realize he’d nearly been ambushed. Upon seeing Qin Yu, the first thing he thought to do was interrogate him: “Qin Yu, what are you doing here?”

Qin Yu paused mid-retch, his scrutinizing gaze sweeping Jiang Fu from head to toe.

Jiang Fu looked disheveled, but there wasn’t a single wound on him, while Liu Yunbai was injured all over. Considering how she had just used her own body to shield Jiang Fu from the red-robed corpse’s ambush, it was obvious where all her wounds had come from.

Thinking of Liu Yunbai’s fate in the book, Qin Yu couldn’t hold back his indignation and spat at Jiang Fu. “Jiang Fu, you don’t deserve her love!”
