Chapter 1969 - 1973: Colluding with the Demon Clan?

"Leng Yu, Leng Yu..."

Qin Tian brought Leng Yu into a dense forest. At this moment, he was already certain he had shaken off all pursuers.

However, after putting Leng Yu down, he discovered that she was already in a semi-conscious state.

After feeding her a few Elixirs, Qin Tian infused True Qi, letting it circulate through all of Leng Yu’s meridians. Strands of black gas were forced out by Qin Tian.

"These people actually used poison!"

Looking at Leng Yu, who was still not lucid, Qin Tian’s expression was extremely ugly.

He could now basically confirm that Leng Yu had been subjected to the Soul Capturing Technique or some kind of Enchanting Technique by the Forbidden Army, and then they had used a virulent Poison to control her body.

Leng Yu had suffered immense torment and abuse!

He checked her breathing; Leng Yu still had a faint breath left. However, Qin Tian had no idea what Poison the Forbidden Army had used on her. Even after probing with his True Qi, he was at a loss where to start, which made him anxious.

"The Forbidden Army people are pretty ruthless! Damn it!"

In his panic, Qin Tian once again covered Leng Yu’s entire body with True Qi. After running a full Circulation with all his strength, he felt he had done his best, but the Leng Yu in front of him, apart from looking a bit better in complexion due to the support of True Qi, showed no other change at all.

Huff!

Qin Tian took a deep breath. He racked his brains and still couldn’t think of any way to wake Leng Yu.

Not only that, through the black Poisonous Gas he had forced out of Leng Yu’s body, Qin Tian also discovered something unusual.

This black gas did not seem like the mere miasma of Poison evaporating. It was more like some strange True Qi that had mutated and then been poured into Leng Yu’s body, making her unable to control herself.

"This True Qi..."

Qin Tian carefully sensed this black gas, his brows knitting together—

This gas was not like the True Qi of ordinary Human Clan!

It was more like some bizarre True Qi of the Demon Clan!

Qin Tian had not interacted with many from the Demon Clan, but he had just exchanged blows with the Blood Sea Demon King and knew well the abnormal differences between Demon Clan True Qi and Human Clan True Qi.

"Could it be there are Demon Clan inside the Forbidden Army?"

Qin Tian’s expression turned grave. There had always been rumors that in the Imperial City, someone was colluding with mysterious and powerful Demon Clan experts. Now it seemed that rumor was actually true!

If it was the Forbidden Army, then on that side it could only be the Fourth Prince!

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

At dusk, a gust of wind howled over, and Qin Tian’s expression instantly tightened!

Someone was approaching!

"Who is it? Since you’ve come, come out!"

Qin Tian had already spread out his Divine Sense earlier, yet when his Divine Sense sensed someone approaching, that person, in the blink of an eye, was already less than ten meters from him!

And it wasn’t just one person.

"Heh heh, your cultivation is indeed not bad. You can even sense our Divine Movement Technique. You should be a peak Great Immortal Realm expert, right?"

An old man’s voice came from behind a large tree not far away. Then an old man wearing a black hooded robe walked out. On his left and right within ten meters, two other black-robed figures stepped out together with him.

The three of them walked without the slightest sound, drifting all the way to stand before Qin Tian and Leng Yu.

Qin Tian shielded Leng Yu behind him. Looking at these three, he sent his Divine Sense probing over, but unexpectedly, these three were extremely vigilant and directly bounced his Divine Sense back.

"No need to probe our bottom line. Speak—your identity."

The old man in the black robe had his face hidden. Under that pitch-black robe, only a pair of eyes shone with a terror-inducing light as they fixed on Qin Tian. "With your cultivation and strength, your status in the Dragon Clan shouldn’t be low, right?"

"Heh heh, don’t be in such a hurry to question me. If you want me to answer you, you have to first answer me: how did you find this place?"

Qin Tian was very curious. He had been certain earlier that he had completely shaken off all pursuers.

Yet he and Leng Yu had only stopped for a little over an hour, and these three had already found them.

"With your intelligence, you shouldn’t be asking such low-IQ questions."

Unexpectedly, the old man started to play coy.

However, the old man’s words did make Qin Tian carefully recall the entire process. Logically, he had left no traces at all... unless they had—

Already planted some kind of trackable mark or scent on Leng Yu!

Qin Tian turned to look at Leng Yu, and suddenly, realization struck him!

"Hahaha... You three are from the Demon Clan, aren’t you?"

Qin Tian’s gaze was like a hawk’s as it locked onto them.

The three said nothing.

Qin Tian said, "You really are vicious, actually planting Demonic Qi on a woman!"

"Hahaha, so what? A traitor who gets caught—death is the only final outcome. At least her life has been extended."

The old man stared at Qin Tian. "But if you want to bring her back to life, I’m afraid you’re overestimating yourself."

Qin Tian fixed his gaze on this old man. Since the other party had tacitly admitted to planting Demonic Qi, then these three had to be Demon Clan!

Moreover, they should know exactly what Poison Leng Yu had been afflicted with!

"I can’t save her—but you can, right?"

As Qin Tian spoke, he stepped towards them, his voice growing cold. "Since you’re here, then spit out the method!"

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

Qin Tian’s True Qi pressure crashed directly down on the three of them!

However, the True Qi pressure of these three was not weak either, and it actually formed a stalemate with Qin Tian’s!

"Heh heh, senior, this guy is really interesting. He actually thinks he alone can use True Qi pressure to suppress the three of us!" The young black-clothed man beside the black-robed old man spoke up.

"Young man, you probably don’t know who we are!"

The other Black-clothed Man also opened his mouth. He had just started to announce their background when the black-robed old man stopped him. "Don’t waste words with him. Take him down first, then talk!"

The black-robed old man shot a meaningful glance at his two companions. The two Black-clothed Men immediately nodded and stepped forward. Two streams of True Qi spread out, instantly sealing off Qin Tian’s left and right escape routes!

"Iron-faced Dragon King, is it? Let me tell you this: in this world, the only one who can bring your companion back to life is our Dharma King. Heh heh, if you surrender now, we can help you plead with the Dharma King to save your companion. If you remain stubborn, your end will be the same as hers!"

The middle-aged black-robed man gave Qin Tian a cold smile, waiting for his response.

Qin Tian pressed his lips together slightly. "You want me to surrender? Call your Dharma King here, and I might consider it."

"I told you to stop babbling and stop leaking our information! Hurry up and finish him off!"

The black-robed old man was clearly very displeased that the middle-aged man had exposed information, and he urged them on at once.

The two Black-clothed Men immediately fell silent. The next moment, they both roared, their figures turning into black smoke as they twined toward Qin Tian!
