Refining the Mountains and Rivers

Qin Yu frowned deeply, looking slightly indignant.

He was gone!

Close Saint was someone who had lived for many years and had numerous tricks. Qin Yu was ninety percent sure he would be able to get rid of Close Saint. He never thought that being caught unprepared would allow Close Saint to disappear out of sight.

It was always better to thoroughly destroy enemies. Especially those who were extremely powerful and lost severely to you before, as they would have hatred built up within them.

If not, there would be a lot of trouble!

And now, Qin Yu was impatient and annoyed.

Stone Pagoda coughed, “Master, you don’t have to be like this. As they say, good situations may turn bad and bad situations may have good endings…no one can predict everything that happens.

“Since Close Saint has escaped, so be it. The heavens are not willing to let him die now. Perhaps it is because he is not done contributing. Maybe the next time you meet him, he will give you a surprise.”

This explanation…fine, it was good!

Close Saint had already been fleeced once. If it happened once more, Qin Yu would not even need to do anything and Close Saint might explode in anger.

Fine. Let him escape then. There was no point in thinking further. What if Stone Pagoda was right?

Taking a deep breath and letting it out, Qin Yu turned back, looking hesitant.

If he wanted to get rid of Soft Peach, this was the best opportunity. Should he go?

He only hesitated for a second before making a decision. He turned and went in the opposite direction.

Although Soft Peach seemed like a friend, strictly speaking, she was just an avatar. Once Peachy was involved, they were bound to fight.

Moreover, there was a high possibility that the item in the Mountain of Flames was the Ruler’s inheritance. What would they do if they found it together? Qin Yu would definitely not give it to Soft Peach and likewise for her.

So since he had the opportunity to leave, it would be better to split early and they would both rely on their skills.

The darkness faded like water flowing away and eventually reentered Soft Peach’s body. She opened her eyes. They were completely white. She looked in the direction that Qin Yu had left in.

The both of them were a distance apart yet it felt as if she could feel his movements…if it were true, it would be truly scary!

All of a sudden, Second Personality spoke, “This is the man you chose. Isn’t he too heartless?”

There was silence, as if listening to something. Second Personality continued, “Can you endure this?”

Another silence before continuing, “Believe me, he won’t stand on your side.” A pause before the last sentence. “If he still persists, I will kill him.”

Second Personality then closed her eyes. After a few moments, the eyes opened once more. Soft Peach’s conscience returned and gained full control of the body.

She was panting and her face was pale. She muttered, “You are right but I still want to try. What if I succeed?”
