Chapter 707 Heavenly Curse!
Continue.
Qin Feng also repeated this phrase in his mind.
A golden giant statue emitting a dazzling light immediately appeared in his mind!
It was unclear.
But majestic and solemn!
Quickly.
The golden statue disappeared, and Qin Feng slowly opened his eyes, everything remained calm as if nothing had happened.
But Qin Feng knew that from now on, Xingluo Peak, this precious land, was his.
Yu Xing'er's regret would be useless.
Because there was the "Heavenly Curse."
There are many things in this world that cannot be clearly explained or understood.
Such as the Heavenly Curse.
The Heavenly Curse, its origins are unknown, but once an oath is taken under it, it cannot be violated, otherwise one would suffer the "Heavenly Punishment."
Qin Feng once heard from a retired monk in Dragon and Tiger Village that someone once defied the Heavenly Curse.
And transferred a Cave Mansion to someone else for a huge sum of money.
Later, relying on his powerful strength, he tried to forcefully reclaim the Cave Mansion.
But during his violent attempt, his blood flowed backward into his brain, causing him to bleed from all seven orifices and die.
This is the Heavenly Punishment!
Of course.
There are more than just this kind of Heavenly Punishment, for example, there are others like the thunderstrike.
The cost of the Heavenly Curse is also very high.
Generally only super sects possess it, and it is said that to craft a "Heavenly Curse" talisman requires a lot of energy.
This Heavenly Curse.
Was also preserved by Xingluo Peak in the past.
"Alright, from today onwards, this place is ours," Qin Feng pointed at a huge rock carved with the words "Xingluo Peak" and said, "Change those three words to 'Heavenly King Palace' later!"
After speaking, he thought for a moment and said: "Or maybe 'Heavenly King Palace of Qinling Branch'!"
"..."
Upon hearing this, Zhi Ziyang from Xingluo Peak felt embarrassed.
Xingluo Peak, a treasure land developed over decades, is one of the best environments among the three major sects of Qinling; and now, to be renamed as some "Branch" of something unheard of like the Heavenly King Palace, isn't this place worthy of being the headquarters...
"Right!"
Suddenly Zhi Ziyang remembered that he was so eager to sign the contract that he forgot to collect the payment, and hurriedly said, "Young Master Qin, how would you like to settle the payment? With Spirit Stones?"
"Oh, I don't have any Spirit Stones."
Qin Feng spread his hands.
Zhi Ziyang was stunned immediately, his heart felt like it was struck, and he said, "You, you aren't planning on defaulting, are you!!"
He was internally regretful.
The contract of the "Heavenly Curse" had already taken effect, even if the other party didn't pay, Xingluo Peak was his now, what to do?
He blamed himself for being too hasty and careless!!
"Cough cough, don't be agitated," Qin Feng said embarrassingly, "I said I don't have Spirit Stones, but I didn't say I don't have anything else for you."
Hearing this, Zhi Ziyang finally breathed a sigh of relief.
His forehead was already sweating profusely, and his clothes were drenched with cold sweat.
"Would this work?"
Qin Feng took out some Spiritual Energy Gems from the Nayu Ring.
Seeing the gems, Zhi Ziyang's eyes immediately lit up in astonishment: "This, this is... perfect!!"
He was not foolish.
Naturally, he knew that the power contained within these Spiritual Energy Gems was more than ten times that of ordinary Spirit Stones!
"How many do you need?"
Qin Feng asked.
"This, this..."
Zhi Ziyang was afraid to ask for too much, as the other party might not agree. After all, they had already signed the "Heavenly Curse" contract. And since this treasure was so valuable, he figured the other party would definitely not want to part with it. He wondered if he should ask for just a little less?
He hesitated.
He carefully stretched out five fingers and said, "Fifty?"
"Uh..."
This number surprised Qin Feng.
He had planned to give seventy or eighty, but the other party had asked for fifty.
Thinking that Qin Feng was reluctant, Zhi Ziyang quickly changed his tone: "Forty, just forty will do!!"
"Uh..."
Qin Feng was embarrassed and seeing how nervous Zhi was, he also felt sympathy. He immediately took out fifty and stuffed them into Zhi's arms, saying, "Here, take fifty."
...
For a moment.
Zhi Ziyang was moved almost to tears.
That was ten more than he had asked for—it was practically life-saving money!
"Thank you, Young Master Qin, thank you, Young Master Qin..."
Zhi Ziyang expressed his gratitude.
Having received this "huge sum," Zhi Ziyang then said, "So, please wait here for a moment. I will go back and inform our Young Master, and then leave Xingluo Peak."
Having said that,
He dashed towards the waterfall...
Inside a spacious room,
Dozens of people were frowning and sighing heavily.
Yu Xing'er sat to one side, her eyes red and swollen, obviously having cried frequently during this period.
The current plight of Xingluo Peak was indeed more than a twenty-year-old girl could bear, especially since her family had been killed by the Supreme Sect.
The tens of people here were also the higher-ups of Xingluo Peak.
Aside from Yu Xing'er, there were three elders, twelve protectors, and some people from the affiliated halls.
As for the others, there were over a hundred waiting outside.
Though these hundred-plus people were all above Grandmaster level, facing the Supreme Sect was like using a cup of water to put out a cart on fire.
One of the elders, currently displeased, said, "In my opinion, what revenge are we talking about? We should just pack up and leave! Fighting the Supreme Sect is like hitting a stone with an egg! With our level of cultivation, we could totally go to the Northwest Tian Mountain, Northeast Changbai Mountain, Shu Mountain, Kunlun, and so on, to join some major sects, rather than waiting here to die!"
"That won't do!"
Yu Xing'er immediately said, "The vengeance for the extermination of Xingluo Peak must be avenged!"
"The Young Master, it's not that we refuse to avenge, but we simply can't!" the elder said displeased, "I really don't understand what the point is in lingering here, letting you go to the Mortal World to gather money and recruit troops, only to come back defeated without achieving anything!"
Elder Hua Qing, sitting beside Yu Xing'er, frowned and said, "What do you mean? Didn't I say that we found someone who could help? We just need to patiently wait!"
Elder Hua Qing was the Sixth Grade Grandmaster who had previously confronted Qin Feng at Longshan.
"Hah, finding help in the Mortal World, saying they can help Xingluo Peak? You're really doing enough. Ask yourself, can the person you found truly help?"
Elder Hong Bu coldly said.
...
Elder Hua Qing couldn't help but furrow his brow tightly.
The current situation of Xingluo Peak was so dire that not even an immortal could help.
Of course, he didn't believe that Qin Feng could be of any assistance.
And a month had passed without any sign of him.
The reason they had been waiting here, lingering here, was for the Young Master, Yu Xing'er.
Yu had suffered too much and couldn't be left without hope.
Thus, they kept deceiving her, claiming they found a heroic figure outside who would help Xingluo Peak seek revenge and wanted her to recover from her emotional trauma over this month before telling her the truth.
Now, that month had already passed.
But she still hadn't recovered.
At this moment, Yu Xing'er's beautiful eyes looked towards Elder Hua Qing, asking, "Grandpa Hua Qing, you didn't lie to me, did you?"
