Chapter 390

　　Qin Yun heard the person inside the cauldron yell with fear and sneered coldly, “I never expected that you, an assassin, would be so afraid of death! Not at all!”

　　“Are you going to burn me? If I die, your life will not be easy!” the man shouted.

　　“You’re still threatening me now?” Qin Yun laughed. “I don’t even know who you are. Why should I be afraid of you? If you want me to be afraid of you, then tell me where you came from!”

　　He really wanted to know why this assassin wanted to kill him!

　　Although the other party’s stealth skills were very high, he didn’t seem like a professional killer.

　　“Are you asking about my background?” That person laughed sinisterly, “Even if I told you, you wouldn’t know. If you knew, it would definitely scare you to death!”

　　Qin Yun thought for a moment and said slowly, “I believe you should know that I am Qin Yun. I am now a disciple of the Nine Extinction Gate. My aptitude is not bad. Are you related to the force that massacred the disciples of the Nine Extinction Profound Gate back then? Back then, that power specially killed the outstanding disciples of the Nine Extinction Profound Gate!”

　　“The Nine Extinction Gate will never rise again!” That person smiled sinisterly, “You guessed right, the reason we specially killed the Nine Extinction Gate’s elite disciples is to cut off your roots!”

　　“Qin Yun, you are so outstanding and you are also a disciple of the Nine Extinction Gate. Therefore, in our eyes, you are destined to be dead!”

　　Qin Yun never expected that his guess was right!

　　This assassin truly came from that mysterious force!

　　What he did not understand was that his whereabouts could also be considered very secretive and only Sect Leader Wei Zhongzheng and Hong Mengshu knew of his whereabouts.

　　It was impossible for the sect master to deal with him in such a way and Hong Mengshu would not want to kill him.

　　“Who are you people? You must have a name!” Qin Yun asked again, “If I were truly afraid, I wouldn’t have burned you to death!”

　　That person sneered, “All you need to know is that the king level sects will have to submit to us. We are the only Emperor level power in the Northern Region!”

　　Qin Yun was slightly taken aback. An Emperor powerhouse was above king level power.

　　In the Desolate land, once a force was on the verge of becoming Emperor level, they would inevitably encounter the wrath of many king level entities, unless there was a powerful force that could resist them.

　　Right now, there was actually an Emperor level power in the Martial Desolate Northern Region. Moreover, it was very mysterious!

　　Qin Yun immediately thought of Totem Pavilion!

　　Hong Mengshu had also said before that their Hong Wu Country would pay tribute to Totem Pavilion!

　　“Are you from Totem Pavilion?” Qin Yun asked indifferently.

　　“You….You know a lot!” That person’s surprised voice came from inside the cauldron.

　　Qin Yun frowned. To think that the force that was going to deal with the Nine Extinction Gate would be Totem Pavilion!

　　In this way, he could also guess the reason behind Totem pavilion’s attack on the Nine Extinction Gate!

　　Perhaps, back then when the Nine Extinction Gate was about to become a king level sect, they refused to give in to the Totem Pavilion. Hence, the headmasters and elders of the Nine Extinction Gate, as well as their outstanding disciples, were all slain.

　　The Totem Pavilion was extremely powerful. However, they were hidden in the shadows and many people did not even know of their existence. This was the most frightening aspect of them.

　　“Very powerful, you scared me!” Qin Yun sighed and said, “How did you know where I was?”

　　“Your headmaster went to register and participate in the pill competition. Then, I followed him back to the Inscription Palace!” That person laughed out loud, “I have to say, this old man is very vigilant. He also noticed that something was amiss, so he pretended to have you deliver a letter for him and told you to leave Hongwu Royal City!”

　　When Qin Yun heard this, he was alarmed. “You have been in that suite all along?”

　　“That’s right! I entered with Wei Zhongzheng, but he doesn’t know!” That person laughed proudly, “He thought that our Totem Pavilion’s target was him. He also knew that he wouldn’t be able to leave Hong Wu Royal City, so he sent you away.”

　　“He was worried that you would know too much, so he didn’t tell you the truth. He only wanted you to quickly leave the Hong Wu Royal City! He was afraid that you would go all out to avenge him, so he didn’t say anything to you!”

　　Qin Yun took a deep breath as he suddenly thought of many things!

　　Hong Yan acknowledged the Fire King’s Sect Master as his master and at the same time, he asked Hong Yan to invite Qin Yun to join the celebration!

　　This way, the Totem Pavilion would have the opportunity to lay their hands on him.

　　The Totem Pavilion’s goal had originally been to get him. This was because Totem Pavilion didn’t know that Wei Zhongzheng had recovered so quickly.

　　“Hong Yan this brat!!! He must have told the Fire King Sect’s sect master about him knowing me and the sect master has a good relationship with your Totem Pavilion. So, he set up this trap to deal with me, right?” After Qin Yun understood what was going on, he asked angrily.

　　That person said, “You’re very smart and your talent in the Martial Dao and in the inscriptions are all extraordinary. If you are allowed to grow, then the Nine Extinction Profound Gate will definitely rise again! The threat you have brought to us is much greater than that old man Wei Zhongzheng!”

　　Qin Yun felt that the Martial King Hong Ying might have known about his Inherent skill in the inscriptions. However, he had never colluded with Totem Tower to harm him. After all, he had saved Hong Mengshu before.

　　As for Hong Yan, he probably did not know that his own master was secretly serving Totem Pavilion.

　　Qin Yun asked again, “That is to say, all of you have many experts at this celebratory feast?”

　　“Originally, we only wanted to kill you, but now… You and Wei Zhongzheng must both die! Especially Wei Zhongzheng. He cannot leave Hong Wu Royal City!” That person laughed loudly and said, “Now, do you know that you’re scared? In order to deal with Wei Zhongzheng, we can get the Fire King Sect’s Sect Master to cooperate with us!”

　　After Qin Yun calmed down, he asked calmly, “Then, do you feel that I dare to kill you?”

　　That person said confidently: “Of course not! Since you know how powerful our Totem Pavilion is, if you still dare to kill me, then you will be chased down by the most outstanding assassins from Totem Pavilion!”

　　Qin Yun also knew that if a great power were to kill a person, the killer they sent out would be dead. Then, the killer they sent out would be even stronger!

　　“How many experts are there in the entire Hong Wu Royal City? How strong are they?” Qin Yun asked.

　　“They are all at the peak of the Xuan Martial Realm. It’s more than enough to deal with this old man Wei Zhongzheng. If we can’t, there’s still the Fire King Sect’s Sect Leader!”

　　Qin Yun clenched his fists tightly. The Fire King Sect’s sect head was a Martial King!

　　“The pill competition is secretly being handled by our Totem Pavilion! As soon as Wei Zhongzheng registered, we knew about it. We then swapped out the guards of the four gates with people from Totem Pavilion.” That man laughed complacently and said: “Do you know how powerful our Totem Pavilion is now? Even Wei Zhongzheng himself does not hold any hope of survival. Prepare to die!”

　　Qin Yun’s anger reached its peak as his voice turned ice-cold “Do you think this beast oil is enough to burn you to death?”

　　“You really want to kill me?” When the person heard Qin Yun’s tone, he immediately turned terrified.

　　“Why do you people always feel that you can kill others but others cannot kill you?” Qin Yun said with a sneer, “If the beast oil isn’t enough, I still have more!”

　　“You…. if you really kill me, that will only increase the strength of Totem pavilion in dealing with your Nine Extinction Gate!” the man shouted.

　　“Looks like your position in Totem Pavilion is not low! Quick, tell me, what is your position? Only someone with a high position would be so afraid of death!” Qin Yun laughed. “Looking at your arrogance, you don’t seem like an assassin!”

　　That man coldly snorted, “You saw how high my position was in Totem Pavilion and you still dare to kill me? I’m not afraid to tell you that in Totem Pavilion, besides those Martial Kings, the strongest is the thirty-six Hall Masters at the peak of the Xuan Martial Realm and I … am the son of one of the hall masters!”

　　In the Totem Pavilion, there were thirty-six people at the peak of the Xuan Martial Realm.

　　This enormous power had always been unknown and only a few people knew of it! Just the thought of it was terrifying!

　　“Thank you so much for letting me know so much!” After saying that, Qin Yun injected the flames into the Dragon Suppressing Cauldron.

　　“You really want to kill me!!! Ahhh!!Ahhh!!Ahhhh…” The person inside let out cries of incomparable fear and pain.

　　Qin Yun said coldly, “What’s wrong? with your Totem Pavilion killing my Nine Extinction Gate’s people, regardless of whether I kill you or not, Totem Pavilion will not let me off.”

　　“Since that’s the case, why should I let you go?”

　　“You will regret it!!” The painful screams were filled with anger.

　　“No matter what, I will not regret killing the person who tried to kill me!” Qin Yun touched the cauldron with a heavy heart.

　　Because he didn’t know what would happen in the end if he killed this person!

　　That person continued to scream miserably. After all, his cultivation was not considered too low. He would not be able to burn him within a short period of time. This was also the most painful thing because he would only die after being burned by the beast oil for a period of time.

　　Although Qin Yun did not have the power of the Xuan Martial Realm to activate the Dragon Suppression Cauldron, the cauldron was very strong.

　　Without a certain level of strength, those trapped within the cauldron would never be able to leave.

　　Moments later, Qin Yun inspected the cauldron and was surprised to discover that the person was not dead.

　　“Your defensive magical equipment is pretty good, it actually helped you endure for so long!” Qin Yun said in surprise.

　　“You…You will die a horrible death!” The person was not dead yet and he shouted angrily.

　　“The one who will die a horrible death is you!” As Qin Yun spoke, he poured more beast oil into the bottle.

　　“Ahh!!!”

　　The man screamed again, in pain.

　　Qin Yun observed the inside and noticed that when the beast oil was burning, the flame in the center was suffused with black gas!

　　“Black flames! If the Fire Martial Spirit is black, then so is the flames!” He was secretly amazed.

　　Of course, when the meat was burning, there would only be traces of black flames in the center and the outside would be a normal fiery-red color.

　　Two hours later, that person’s defensive magical equipment was finally burnt to the ground.

　　Without a defensive magic treasure, his flesh and blood body was unable to withstand the intense flames. However, he was only able to burn the man down a few times, causing him to be unable to shout out.

　　Qin Yun hurriedly opened the lid and removed the person inside.

　　The man’s body was charred black and it was impossible to see his appearance but he was still alive and could still moan in a low voice.

　　“The reason you were able to follow the Sect Leader into the room without him noticing is because your Martial Spirit is a little strange, right?” Qin Yun placed his hand on the person’s dantian and began extracting his martial spirit.

　　“AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH……Refining….Soul….!” the man cried out in pain.

　　Qin Yun said with a smile, “You didn’t think of that, right? I hope your martial spirit is good enough to give me a surprise. Most of the martial spirits I extracted from others were trash! You are from Totem Pavilion. You shouldn’t disappoint me!”
