Chapter 1343: The Secret of the Golden Tokens

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

No matter what, Lu Zhou had to use his infinity-grade weapon to take down Meng Mingshi.

Meng Mingshi was twisted, extreme, and insane. He was capable of any act as long as his goal was achieved.

Although the others had no idea about what had happened in the Meng Residence, based on Mingshi Yin’s attitude, even if they did not know the details, they had a vague idea of how bad it must have been. After all, Mingshi Yin and Meng Mingshi were related. One could only imagine what kind of acts Meng Mingshi had committed to make Mingshi Yin hate him so much.

Mingshi Yin was still smacking his Birth Palace, trying to force Meng Mingshi’s life heart out. He was terrified and helpless. He did not possess Meng Mingshi’s ruthlessness when Meng Mingshi was about to die; he could not gouge the life heart out. He sat down limply, feeling nauseous.

“Ding! Destroyed one Birth Chart. Reward: 1,500 merit points.”

The notification rang ten times consecutively.

“Ding! Killed a target. Reward: 2,000 merit points. Domain bonus: 1,000 merit points.”

The four elders of Mount Li who were drenched in blood watched as the ice sculpture crashed to the ground. They looked at ‘the emperor of Great Qin’, not knowing what to think.

Finally, Cui Mingguang, who had sat up with great difficulty, lamented, “Why is it Meng Mingshi? Why?”

The four elders of Mount Li had lost all will to fight. The person they had been loyal to for the longest time turned out to be an impostor. He was not the emperor of Great Qin, but Meng Mingshi, who killed the real emperor of Great Qin! Was there anything more disgusting than this? They found it difficult to accept this fact. All of them stared at the air with lifeless eyes.

Madam Qi turned to look at the four elders of Mount Li and said, “The emperor of Great Qin has long passed away. Your loyalty toward him is commendable. Unfortunately, you were loyal to the wrong person…”

“Madam Qi, you… you clearly know the truth! Why didn’t you speak up earlier?” Cui Mingguang asked.

“The country can’t be without a ruler for even a day. After the battle on Mount Xiao, the world was in turmoil and was in urgent need of stability. Moreover, even if I had spoken up, would anyone believe me?” Madam Qi said helplessly, “He could even dispose of everyone in the Meng clan to keep his secret…”

“Then, why didn’t he kill you?” Cui Mingguang asked.

Madam Qi gazed into the distance with a pained expression on her face. “That’s because I’m the only one who knows the secret of the golden tokens. The first day he returned from the battle on Mount Xiao, I already knew he was an impostor. However, I could only endure it.” She sighed before she continued to say, “On one hand, he wanted to kill me to silence me. On the other hand, he wanted to know the secret of the golden tokens. He tried various means to threaten me into telling him the secret of the golden tokens. He sent someone to poison me until I was bedridden…”

Fear rose in Zhao Yu’s heart as he listened to his mothers’ words. After all, he had rebuked Meng Mingshi several times in the past. After all, as the emperor’s son, he was afforded the privilege to be a little unrestrained. Now that he thought about it, there were countless chances for Meng Mingshi to kill him.

“What’s the secret of the golden tokens?” Lu Zhou asked as he turned to look at Madam Qi.

Madam Qi said, “They hide a treasure map…”

“Where are the other three golden tokens?” Lu Zhou asked.

Madam Qi pointed at the Mystic Tranquility Hall and said, “Apart from this palace, I really can’t think of anywhere else he might have kept them…”

Lu Zhou nodded and waved his hand.

Kong Wen and his two brothers flew out and began to search the hall. There were three areas inside and outside the hall, but they did not miss searching a single corner.

Meanwhile, Qin Renyue walked forward and surveyed the scene of destruction. He shook his head and sighed. “Back then, General Meng was considered a top talent of his generation. Why did he choose to tread on this path?”

“The human heart is difficult to understand or predict,” Lu Zhou said.

“That’s true. No matter how the dynasty changes, no matter how much time passes, since time immemorial, human hearts are the hardest to grasp,” Qin Renyue said with a sigh.

At this moment, a voice rang from the sky.

“Are both of you okay?”

Everyone looked up and saw Fan Zhong flying over. He hurriedly landed in front of Lu Zhou and Qin Renyue and greeted them. “Brother Qin, Brother Lu…”

Qin Renyue furrowed his brows. “You really came at the right time…”

Fan Zhong revealed an embarrassed expression as he said, “To be honest, I arrived earlier. However, I couldn’t enter because of the Ultimate Formation. I apologize for that. If I may ask, what happened?”

Lu Zhou glanced at Fan Zhong and said, “There’s nothing for you here. You can leave now.”

Fan Zhong was not here when needed and only came when everything was over. Lu Zhou would not befriend this kind of person.

Fan Zhong said, “Brother Lu, I…”

Yu Shangrong turned around and interjected with a smile, “There’s no need to say anything else. My master has already spoken. Please.”

“…”

Fan Zhong felt extremely embarrassed. After thinking about it for a moment, he cupped his fists at Lu Zhou and the others before he sighed and turned to leave.

As Qin Renyue looked at Fan Zhong’s retreating back, he said, “From now on, the Qin clan will have nothing to do with the Fan clan.”

The 49 swordsmen bowed and said in unison, “Understood.”

…

Meanwhile, Fan Zhong was filled with regret. Alas, it was too late. He could only leave, embarrassed. From today onward, the Fan clan could only be suppressed by the Qin clan in every manner.

…

At this time, Little Yuan’er rushed to Lu Zhou’s side and asked anxiously, “Master, what about Fourth Senior Brother?”

Lu Zhou looked over and saw Mingshi Yin was still smacking his Birth Palace. He called out, “Old Fourth…”

As though he did not hear Lu Zhou, Mingshi Yin continued smacking his Birth Palace in frustration. He wanted to gouge the life heart but lacked the ruthlessness to do so. He raised his hand and hesitated a few times; he did not have the courage to dig the life heart out. He was so frustrated that he began to pound his chest and stomp his feet.

Lu Zhou raised his voice. “Mingshi Yin.”

Ming Shiyin was shocked and stopped what he was doing immediately. He looked at Lu Zhou. “M-master?”

Lu Zhou looked at Mingshi Yin’s Birth Palace and the place where the life heart was embedded as he asked, “Do you really loathe this life heart?”

Mingshi Yin nodded.

“I can remove it for a price…”

Mingshi Yin hesitated when he heard there was a price.

Qin Renyue chimed in, “In my opinion, you should keep the life heart. Consider it as compensation from Meng Mingshi. Think about it. The more you act like this, the happier he’d be. You’re the only one left from the Meng clan. I believe your other family members would like to see you live well…”

After Qin Renyue finished speaking, he glanced at Meng Mingshi’s corpse. He wanted to say something but decided against it in the end.

Right and wrong were no longer important. At this moment, the feelings of the person involved should take priority.

Moreover, Qin Renyue was not a member of the Meng clan. He did not think he had the right to judge other people’s family affairs. It was enough to advise others to be magnanimous without interfering in their affairs.

Yu Zhenghai moved to stand next to Mingshi Yin and patted Mingshi Yin’s shoulder as he said, “You can be a little more shameless in this instance…”

Mingshi Yin looked at his hands and his Birth Palace before he said, “The problem is… I haven’t sprouted my eleventh leaf yet!”

Qin Renyue said with a smile, “Since the life heart was forcefully embedded, it won’t be activated so soon. You still have time to take it out or sprout your leaf…”

Lu Zhou now had three of Meng Mingshi’s life hearts. This time, the second super Reduction Card did not trigger the double life heart effect. He really felt like throwing up when he thought about this minor loss. After a moment, he no longer dwelled on it. He could not let his emotions control him.

Yu Shangrong said, “Think about it first. Once you’ve made up your mind, you can speak to master.”

After listening to his Eldest Senior Brother and Second Senior Brother, Mingshi Yin gradually calmed down. His anger and hatred gradually subsided.

Many things had faded away with time. If it were not necessary, he would not have come to the green lotus domain again. He had no wish to return to the Meng Residence as well. Whether it was Meng Mingshi or the emperor of Great Qin, they had nothing to do with him.

When Lu Zhou saw Mingshi Yin in a daze, he said, “Bring him away.”

“Yes.”

Yu Zhenghai supported Mingshi Yin.

From afar, Whitzard spat out a white light orb that shot into Mingshi Yin. It healed all of Mingshi Yin’s injuries immediately.

Qin Renyue was skilled in healing. Among the four Venerable Masters, he was the best at healing. Even then, he could not help but exclaim in admiration when he saw Whitzard’s power.

At this moment, Kong Wen ran out of the Mystic Tranquility Hall, shouting, “Pavilion Master, I found them!”
