Chapter 912: Chapter 48: Calling in Favors Everywhere, One Year Later, Attaining a Top-level Dharma Body!
Initially, the musicians were not without the strength to fight back, but now they were all sealed, and without instruments in hand, how could they possibly fend off these soldiers like wolves and tigers?
Seeing that she was about to be violated, Qin Qingqiu plucked the string with her thumb, and a flame burst from her fingertip along the zither string.
She didn’t intend to kill the enemy but to self-immolate.
Because she couldn’t defeat the man, she didn’t want her dead body to be dishonored.
"Self-combustion with no fire from the Burning Sky Song? Hahaha, can you burn?" The Green Armor General’s right foot was as quick as a shadow, instantly kicking the guzheng away, followed by another kick, directly stepping on Qin Qingqiu’s abdomen.
This step extinguished the flame and also extinguished Qin Qingqiu’s hope.
She was powerless to resist.
However, after waiting for a moment, the barbarian general did not act further.
The cries behind her had also somehow disappeared.
Qin Qingqiu looked up to see a large dark hole on the forehead of the barbarian general.
Threads of thunder light spread from the wound.
"Thud~"
The barbarian general, at the pinnacle of the fifth rank, fell heavily to the ground.
As the barbarian general fell, he exposed a man dressed in a Silver Moon Robe and wearing a bamboo hat.
This man held a pen in one hand and a board in the other. After writing a few strokes, he held the pen in his mouth and took out a mirror to look at himself.
"Qin Qingqiu of Yulong County? The Qin family of Nanlong, does your ancestor have a Heavenly Demon Zither?"
Qin Qingqiu stood up from the ground somewhat bewildered, not autonomously, but lifted by a gust of wind.
"Yes, that’s me. May I ask who you are, sir?" Qin Qingqiu finally realized she had been saved, and hope returned to her eyes.
"Minister of Agriculture Official Zhao Xing, a native of Nanyang County in Dayuan Prefecture, happened to pass by here."
Zhao Xing took off his bamboo hat and placed it at his chest, bowing slightly.
While speaking, he casually killed a still crawling, not quite dead barbarian general on the ground.
Elegant, truly elegant.
In Qin Qingqiu’s mind, she couldn’t forget that handsome face anymore.
She instinctively patted her clothes and blessed him, "Mr. Zhao, I am Qin Qingqiu, indeed. My ancestor had a Heavenly Demon Zither, but it has been lost and unknown..."
"Miss Qin, don’t be nervous," Zhao Xing smiled, "The rebels of Yulong County have all been dealt with by me, you can take them north to find a way to live."
In Zhao Xing’s eyes, the Fortune Pillar of Qin Qingqiu now had its black aura dissipated, turning into a light red.
The fortune lay to the north, so Zhao Xing advised her to seek survival in that direction.
"I have prepared a Flying Boat for you all, oh, do you know how to fly a Blood Shadow Flying Boat?" Zhao Xing asked.
"Yes, I know. I have a strong will to survive so I can fly any model!" Qin Qingqiu exclaimed ardently.
"That’s good. Surviving a great calamity is indeed an accumulation of virtue from ancestors," Zhao Xing smiled. "If Miss Qin escapes, you should visit home often and pay respects to your ancestors."
"Wha-what?" Qin Qingqiu didn’t understand why the conversation suddenly turned to mysticism.
"Oh, yes, okay."
"There might be pursuit coming, so I won’t speak much with you," Zhao Xing extended his hand, and the Flying Boat outside slowly descended, "Miss Qin, please take them and leave quickly."
"Yes." Qin Qingqiu immediately called her sisters to board the ship and flew north as instructed by Zhao Xing.
Watching the Flying Boat depart, Zhao Xing couldn’t help but smile slightly: "The Morning Bell and Evening Drum Heavenly Demon Zither, one of the three divine artifacts of musicians, has already been obtained."
Calculating with fingers, he found many people rushing towards here, so his clone also quickly left.
...
In Tiancang County, within a Marquis Mansion.
"Jump! Jump faster!"
A youth in Chinese Clothing, holding a whip, shouted excitedly.
A mountain of knives stood before him, with flames burning around.
"Sir, spare us!"
In the knife mountain and sea of fire, dancers continuously died.
"How can you be spared?" the young man in Chinese Clothing sneered, "It is said that the Knife Mountain Dance and Sea of Fire Dance are compulsory subjects for seventh-grade dancers, dancing it can make the enemy trapped in knife mountains and seas of fire."
"Or are you just a bunch of useless eaters? Hm?"
"The money you earn is tens of times more than mine, how can you be so lazy?"
"But, but sir... we are musicians!"
"I don’t care, you all deserve to die! Dance for me!"
The young man in Chinese Clothing swung his whip, and each swing made the sea of fire even hotter.
Seeing that these people were about to die in the Yellow Spring, suddenly.
"Hoo~"
All the flames suddenly extinguished, and the knife mountain instantly collapsed.
"Who!"
The young man in Chinese Clothing sensed something was wrong, tossed his fire whip, and quickly fled towards the rockery.
"Pfft~"
The Heavenly Thunder Finger pierced through him.
Zhao Xing’s silhouette appeared among the survivors, beginning to inquire.
"Do you have a dancer named Lin Yichen here?"
"Yes, an outsider."
"Oh? Is that so, he’s just registered for three months?"
"Great, where is he?"
"Locked in the dungeon?"
"Okay, wait here briefly."
Zhao Xing immediately tunneled into the ground to start searching the dungeon.
Sure enough, in one of the cells, he found the person he was looking for.
In the cell, a man was dancing gracefully.
Although he wore a prison uniform and the surroundings were filthy.
Zhao Xing still felt his dance was full of beauty, as if Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi were all dancing.
The Primordial Energy usable in this dungeon was scarce, Zhao Xing checked carefully and found Lin Yichen had nearly broken through a window of the sealed array.
When Zhao Xing appeared, hearing his footsteps, Lin Yichen immediately stopped and returned everything to its original state around him.
"Sizzle sizzle sizzle~"
Zhao Xing appeared at the cell door, lightly pointing, shattering the array lock.
"Who are you?" Lin Yichen curiously looked at Zhao Xing.
