<h4>Chapter 1228 – True Saint Arrives</h4>


    …


    Hu –


    Hu –


    With great heaving gasps of breath, Qin Yu’splexion was pale. Only by personally experiencing it could someone understand how impressive the title of Saint yer was and also how dangerous it was to obtain it.


    If he hadn’t grasped the Light and Dark Body, Old Turtle’s help, and if his body and soul also weren’t strong enough, it would have been impossible for him to seed. There would have been nothing waiting for him but death!


    The looks aimed at him from around the hall were filled with awe and amazement…and within their depths, also some greed.


    Everything was within Qin Yu’s perception, but he didn’t pay attention to them. His only thought was – what should he do now?


    Although Lian Yi personally said that neither side would pursue each other even if someone died, would the Schrtree Saint really care about this? Perhaps things wouldn’t be so simple! And if the Schrtree Saint did try to do something, would the Dragon Saintpletely flip the tables with a True Saint to protect him?


    Without considering this, it was undoubtedly an extremely stupid decision to hand over his life and death to someone else, especially in this current situation.


    So following this, Qin Yu’s first thought was to immediately leave the East Sea!


    After killing Lian Yi, he made this decision without hesitation…Qin Yu’s response was fast, but as he was preparing to talk to Peachy and also hurry to take the wooden box away, the space within the hall suddenly shook.


    This wasn’t true shaking. Rather, it was a type of strong distortion that existed within one’s senses. Each distortion was flooded with a terrifying feeling.


    Roars immediately echoed through the hall!


    “Schrtree Saint, do you want to provoke a war with the East Sea?” The anger was so overwhelming that everyone could hear it in the Dragon Saint’s voice.


    To be a True Saint that reached the other shore, putting aside talent and luck, just a thick skin and ck heart wasn’t enough. This old dragon was smart enough to leave ordinary people a thousand miles behind in his dust.


    When the Schrtree Saint suddenly dragged him into another battlefield, he clearly understood why he did that.


    Damn it, that scoundrel, that bastard!


    He couldn’t be any more satisfied with that boy Qin Yu and hadpletely taken a liking for him. Even if it required not hesitating to ruin his rtionship with the Spring Master, he had to make sure Qin Yu stayed at the East Sea.


    But if Lian Yi killed him, everything would be for nothing. All his dreams of the East Sea having two True Saints and dominating the world would fade away.


    Boy, don’t die, you cannot die!


    Shua –


    Behind the crystal wall, the giant dragon eyes widened. They swept across the hall and couldn’t help but shine with joy. This boy Qin Yu was in an incredibly distressed situation, but he still had his arms and legs. He was far from dying.


    He was alive, he was still alive!


    Hahaha!


    Wonderful! Too great!


    Although the Dragon Saint had prayed that Qin Yu would survive, the truth was that he knew this chance wasn’t too high. First, it was due to his understanding of the Schrtree Saint. That old thing was known to only show his ws when he knew for sure he would grasp his prey. Since he created an opportunity for Lian Yi, he had to be confident his son could finish the job.


    The second reason was because he had seen Lian Yi’s strength with his own eyes.


    Lian Yi’s Saint’s path was unobstructed. By taking another step forward, he could cross into the Sea of Bitterness and be a Saint. Even if that boy Qin Yu possessed tyrannical strength and had numerous cards, it was all useless in the face of a Saint.


    Mm? That’s right, how did Qin Yu survive?


    The atmosphere in the hall was clearly wrong. It was too peaceful…too quiet…when the juniors in the hall looked at Qin Yu, their eyes were wide with panic and shock.


    Although they werecking in experiences, the juniors in this hall came from prominent backgrounds and were notmon cultivators. They could be considered somewhat knowledgeable, so why would they have such an appearance?


    Then, the Dragon Saint discovered that someone was missing from the hall. Where was Lian Yi? Why was he not here? Had he been chased away by Qin Yu?


    This…didn’t seem likely. That junior Lian Yi’s path to bing a Saint was unobstructed and he could be a Saint with just a thought. Did Qin Yu have such methods to force him out?


    That wasn’t right!


    The Dragon Saint’s eyes widened. He felt an aura in the hall that hadn’t yet fully dispersed.


    A Saint’s might…


    It was Lian Yi. He had indeed taken that final step and crossed into the Sea of Bitterness. But, that aura was already starting to fade away. It had lost its foundation, bing driftweed that would soonpletely vanish from existence.


    And the only way to make a Saint’s aurapletely vanish from existence was to kill them.


    In other words, Lian Yi had been killed!


    The moment this thought appeared, the Dragon Saint looked at Qin Yu, as if he detected something extraordinary.


    This was the vor of a Saint yer!


    As the firm-willed Dragon Saint looked at Qin Yu, even he was at a loss for words.


    Although he had refreshed his understanding of Qin Yu many times already and determined that this junior was one of the powerhouses with the greatest potential he had ever seen throughout the years, Qin Yu’s performance still far exceeded his expectations.


    As a True Saint who reached the other shore, he naturally knew the power of the Saint’s path and thus knew that while it was easy to say Saint yer, it was actually unfathomably difficult to achieve it.


    But Qin Yu had seeded!


    “This boy, he really defies the heavens…” The Dragon Saint murmured in his heart. But, hisplexion was dignified.


    Because the Schrtree Saint was here.


    In other words, Qin Yu had killed Lian Yi, who had just be a Saint, in front of his father.


    This was just…!


    The Dragon Saint knew that Qin Yu wasn’t to me for killing Lian Yi, and the majority of the me actuallyy on Lian Yi for bringing this upon himself.


    Although this was true, would the Schrtree Saint ept this exnation? As a ck-hearted schemer, would the ruthless old schrtree let Qin Yu off? That was simply impossible! Moreover, ording to what the Dragon Saint knew, while Lian Yi was highly favored by the old schrtree, there were actually other secrets behind it.


    Bang –


    A terrifying aura instantly arrived, covering the entire hall. It shrouded everyone and pressed down on them like a massive mountain, leaving them unable to breathe.


    “Were you the one that killed my son?” The ordinary-looking middle-aged cultivator said. His eyebrows were furrowed together and his eyes were puzzled and sharp.


    Peachy’s figure flickered and she stood in front of Qin Yu. She bowed and said, “I greet the Schrtree Saint! Today’s battle was provoked by Lian Yi first. Moreover, he made it clear with Qin Yu that no one would pursue their life and death. I ask the Schrtree Saint to please investigate this further.”


    In fact, everyone was well aware that the Schrtree Saint had been in the hall from the very start. There was nothing to investigate.


    But Peachy still said these words. Saints still needed to care about face, especially so for True Saints.


    No matter what happened in the future, she would ce these words in front of the Schrtree Saint to try and preserve Qin Yu’s life.


    But things progressed beyond their expectations. The Schrtree Saint looked at her, the piercing ice-cold gaze within his eyes shrinking her heart.


    Hou –


    With a deep dragon roar, a figure emerged from the crystal wall. He was tall and strong, wearing a golden dragon robe. Every move he made exuded confidence and disdain.


    “Schrtree Saint, this is the East Sea, not your Western Mountain!” The Dragon Saint’s eyes were callous and a terrifying aura shook his surroundings.


    The Schrtree Saint said without expression, “You want to shelter him?”


    The Dragon Saint lightly said, “Yes.”


    The Schrtree Saint looked at him and suddenly said, “Your main body is too far away from the East Sea.”


    The Dragon Saint’splexion changed. “Peachy, take Qin Yu and flee!” He lifted a hand and pressed forward. A spatial barrier appeared, imprisoning the Schrtree Saint’s aura.


    The Schrtree Saint didn’t resist. His eyes only became colder, “It’s toote.” Just as the Schrtree Saint’s voice fell, the middle-aged cultivator he temporarily resided in was torn apart.


    A momentter, the skies above the boundless East Sea were smashed to pieces. A vast and ancient schrtree appeared. It was astonishinglyrge, so great that its crown spread out and seemed to support the heavens with its swaying branches.


    Today, the Schrtree Saint’s main body had arrived at the East Sea!


    The East Sea was a sea, but it was also a world. This world was where the Dragon Saint achieved enlightenment and became a Saint, thus it was also protected by his Great Dao. So when Peachy opened a spatial door from the peach garden, she didn’t directlye here and first went to Dragini’s residence. This was to indicate her respect towards the Dragon Saint.


    The moment the Schrtree Saint’s main body tore through space and descended into the East Sea, it touched the Dragon Saint’s Great Dao aura field. A dragon’s cry passed through space and time to resound in the air. Above the endless East Sea, the phantom of a giant dragon appeared.


    This was a genuine giant dragon. Its body was partially hidden in the fog, as if it were a 10,000 mile long wall!


    Shua –


    The great dragon opened both eyes, locking onto the sky-reaching schrtree. Its voice was low and deep, as if it touched the rhythm of the world. “Schrtree Saint, what is the meaning of this?”


    With the dragon’s roar, the entire East Sea seethed and boiled. Sea water rose into the air, condensing into innumerable water dragons.


    The water dragons soared up, their numbers incalcble. They intertwined around the ancient schrtree and formed a barrier of water dragons.


    A face appeared on the ancient schrtree. Its eyes looked at the great dragon and its lips moved, creating sounds like thunderps that echoed through the East Sea, “I have no intention of bing enemies with the Dragon Saint, but my son Lian Yi cannot die for nothing. As his father, I must seek blood vengeance on his behalf!”


    The great dragon’s voice deepened, “Schrtree Saint, is this your choice?”


    The face on the ancient schrtree closed its eyes, “My apologies.”


    Bang –


    The branches instantly erupted, smashing apart the seal made from countless water dragons.


    Inside the Dragon Pce, Peachy grabbed ahold of Qin Yu. She turned her hand and took out a peach blossom, touching it.


    Hum –


    Space surged as ripples appeared. But they were extremely stagnant and dyed, far less smooth than they were at the Profound Vision World.


    Qin Yu had seen this once before. A wooden door woven from countless peach tree branches forcibly made its way into the world.


    Without hesitation, Peachy pulled Qin Yu and shoved open the door.


    But at this moment a repulsive force erupted from the door, followed by a scream of pain. The spatial fluctuations were smoothed out and the wooden door shattered instantly before being swallowed up by space.


    It had been so close. If the two hadn’t been pushed away, they would likely have suffered the same fate as the wooden door.


    Qin Yu’splexion changed and his eyes darkened. He discovered that things were much more serious than he first imagined. With the Schrtree Saint’s cultivation, even if this ce was the East Sea, everything was within his perception. It was simply impossible for him to not know that Peachy was with him.


    But looking at his actions just now, he had no scruples at all. As if…killing Peachy was one of his goals all along!


    In the hall, the Dragon Saint’splexion paled. “The two of you, don’t go out!”


    He stepped forward and vanished from sight.
