Chapter 669 - Xin Wujis Fury
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
With the Observant Finger Jade Plate, Qin Wushuang was rather not afraid to play hide and seek with Xin Wuji. Jiu Fang Yunfei, on the other hand, possessed good strength, but was much slower than Qin Wushuang in terms of foot speed.
Although Qin Wushuang had the Purple Cloud Ying Yang Wings, he could not fly within the prohibition. Instead he used them as a supporting tool, to help him travel at a faster speed than others.
However, to Qin Wushuang’s surprise, no matter how quickly they tried to break away from Xin Wuji, he was always glued behind them like a maggot to their bones.
Through the Observant Finger Jade Plate, Qin Wushuang realized clearly that Xin Wuji was able to follow them exactly with every direction they were going.
This situation made Qin Wushuang feel incredibly astonished. Could it be Xin Wuji also has a tool similar to the Observant Finger Jade Plate, or else, how could he be doing this?

Upon thinking of such a possibility, Qin Wushuang remained rather calm. He decided to try again as he said to Jiu Fang Yunfei, “Brother Jiu Fang, let’s do an experiment. You and I will go separately. After six hundred miles, let’s meet again. I want to see if this Xin Wuji is able to follow us.”
Jiu Fang Yunfei also found this strange, so he nodded in agreeance. “Then you better be careful.”
Qin Wushuang said with a smile, “Don’t worry, although this Xin Wuji is the son of the Heavenly Emperor, I have a way to deal with him. If he wants to compete with me on foot power, then I will compete with him.”
Since Qin Wushuang had the Purple Cloud Ying Yang Wings as his trump card, he was fearless against Xin Wuji when competing for speed. When competing for endurance, the more Qin Wushuang had no pressure.
Qin Wushuang was confident in the number of trump cards and tricks he had up his sleeve.
Initially from Lu Xianlou’s treasure cave abyss, he had acquired a total of six first-rate treasures. The Five Elemental Attributes Talisman was only one of them.
The Heart Illusion Mask had already showcased great effects and he could also refine the Sky Pilfered Pill at any time. For the remaining three pieces, he had yet to take much advantage of the Falling Ground Trace Seal and had never used any of the two remaining pieces.
One piece was the Great Golem Puppet, but for now Qin Wushuang would not have any use for it. The final piece was the Spiritual Power Pearl that could prove to be of great use in his current situation..
With this Spiritual Power Pearl, Qin Wushuang would not be worried of competing for endurance with Xin Wuji. Even if he were to keep consuming his Spiritual Qi, this Spiritual Power Pearl would supplement him.
With this Spiritual Power Pearl, how could Qin Wushuang fear racing with Xin Wuji? Currently, he just wanted to verify whether this Xin Wuji had truly grasped a sound method of tracking them or not.
If he did, then it would be extremely interesting. Both parties would restrain each other.
After he made up an approximate meeting place with Jiu Fang Yunfei, Qin Wushuang deliberately lured Xin Wuji to chase him in circles at the valley after their separation.
Exactly as he had expected, regardless of how Qin Wushuang fled, Xin Wuji was always right on his tail without any faulty turns. Now, Qin Wushuang could almost verify that certainly Xin Wuji must have something similar to the Observant Finger Jade Plate. Additionally, certainly he must have fallen into Xin Wuji’s trick at that cave entrance.
Currently, Xin Wuji was not as carefree as Qin Wushuang.
“Qin Wushuang, Qin Wushuang... How come every time it’s this kid coming out to ruin the plans?” Inwardly, Xin Wuji was extremely irritated.
Being the son of the Heavenly Emperor, he had been used to being in a superior position. Not to mention the younger generation of the Xuan Yuan Mound, not many others could match his level of superiority.
Even among the most exceptional disciples of the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gates, only a few could enter his eyes.
For example, Qin Taichong of the Qin Clan and Yun Zhongye of the Yun Clan, to name a couple.
However, these names could only enter his discerning eyes. Compared to Xin Wuji, they were still not quite on his level of superiority.
Amongst these people, Xin Wuji was the only one that was able to enter the peak of the Common Mysterious stage.
This sense of superiority that he had accumulated throughout his life had caused Xin Wuji to possess endless confidence. He would always feel a sense of superiority from the bottom of his heart when he faced an opponent from the young generation in the Xuan Yuan Mound.
However, at this moment, a ripple had appeared in Xin Wuji’s firm confidence! Something he was unwilling to admit, but he couldn’t help but feel it waiver.
Finally, among the young generation of the Xuan Yuan Mound, someone eligible to challenge his authority had appeared. Although he had not met this problem head on in the past, during the short battle of wits with Qin Wushuang, it caused him to fully recognize Qin Wushuang’s abilities and skills!
Perhaps, this Qin Wushuang would not form a fatal threat to him now, but how could Xin Wuji neglect it? Qin Wushuang was only twenty something and much younger than Xin Wuji. Per Qin Wushuang’s growth, he could clearly predict that he would certainly become his future sworn enemy!
Xin Wuji was able to gain his achievements today due to his firm mentality. After he had recognized the situation, he firmly believed that if he were not to take out Qin Wushuang today, he would surely become a major threat in the future!
Therefore, he was determined to kill Qin Wushuang at this Ten Thousand Flower Valley and pull out this mortal weed. He would never allow Qin Wushuang to continue his growth!
“This Qin Wushuang is the same as me and has entered the immortal leaf flying boat. Since I could not use my communication jade plate, certainly he can not use his. Even if I killed him today, it would be impossible for him to deliver the news. This is the best chance. Besides, after Qin Wushuang’s death, even if the rumors would work against me, without proof or evidence, what would the Qin Clan do to my Heavenly Emperor Gate?”
Xin Wuji also had a set of his own plans.
Earlier, Xin Wuji had set up a small formation at the cave entrance. This formation did not possess any form of attack power, but once it was activated it would form an invisible tracking talisman and drop onto the person that had activated the formation. It was through this talisman that Xin Wuji could track Qin Wushuang.
The instant Qin Wushuang dashed out of that cave, Xin Wuji’s invisible talisman was attached to him. Without realizing, he had fallen into Xin Wuji’s trick.
Unless Qin Wushuang was an elite warrior of the Supreme Dao, it would be impossible for him to see through the tracking talisman under that situation.
Only, this tracking talisman was not as useful as the Observant Finger Jade Plate. The effectiveness of the tracking talisman would last longer than three to seven days.
Of course, Xin Wuji had possessed extreme confidence. He believed that with his skills for being at the peak of the Common Mysterious Stage, it would definitely not be some difficult thing to chase after Qin Wushuang.
However, the reality had made Xin Wuji feel extremely astonished. After chasing him for a while, he realized with wonder that Qin Wushuang seemed to be capable of keeping some distance with him.
Clearly, Xin Wuji still had not realized that Qin Wushuang could also lock onto his position. He thought to himself, “Qin Wushuang, this kid has been running away all this time. It seems he is also worried about that divine beast. Humph, I will just compete with you and see who is faster!”
Xin Wuji was extremely confident in his own strength. For anyone beneath the Supreme Dao Stage, Xin Wuji would not think of anyone else. Although this Qin Wushuang possessed supreme talent, compared to the peak of the Common Mysterious Stage, there was still a big difference. Or else, that Qin Wushuang would not have escaped in a rush!
Carried with such confidence, Xin Wuji increased his speed. He knew that Qin Wushuang was only a few hundred miles away from him. He could completely catch up to him with this small distance.
With this goal in mind, Xin Wuji had chased after him for almost half a day unconsciously. He felt most astonished because he realized that the distance between Qin Wushuang had not reduced.
For that Qin Wushuang, one did not know whether he was doing it intentionally or unintentionally for it seemed he was playing hide and seek. Per his actions of sometimes going to the east, sometimes going to the west, it made Xin Wuji puzzled.
The more Xin Wuji chased, the more he felt uneasy inwardly. The situation made someone as Xin Wuji, who possessed great confidence, to doubt himself.
“Could this Qin Wushuang truly be a devilish figure? Judging his strength, he is only at around the Perfect Void Martial Stage. How can he keep this distance and seem to know that I am chasing him? Could it be he is deliberately luring me to chase after him?”
Feeling overly suspicious, Xin Wuji was frustrated. Currently, he could not but help to miss his friends.
If Yan Qiansui and Lei Hong had not died and if Xin Wuwang was alive, the four of them could certainly encircle Qin Wushuang to kill him by joining hands.
Currently, Xin Wuji realized that regardless of how he urged his full force, it seemed that Qin Wushuang was always able to keep the same distance with him and would not allow him to shorten the distance!
Inwardly, Qin Wushuang was making similar plans. While he ran, he also considered how to kill this Xin Wuji with this opportunity.
With Xin Wuji’s death, surely the Heavenly Emperor Xin Clan would suffer greatly. This would work one hundred percent to the Qin Clan’s advantage. In terms of waiting for the Xin Clan to lash out their moves, it would be better to strike first.
“Surely this Xin Wuji would not reconcile to let me gain the divine fruit. He is tracking me because he wants to seize this fruit and kill me,” Qin Wushuang thought to himself. “Xin Wuji has a Supreme Dao weapon and is at the peak of the Common Mysterious Stage. With my current strength, even with one of the Supreme Dao Five Elemental Talisman and the Graceful Spiritual Bow, it would be difficult to kill Xin Wuji with one shot. To kill him, I must achieve a breakthrough. I will only have a chance if I summon the last two sealed spiritual beasts!”
In order to kill Xin Wuji, he must use all of his advantageous tools. Or else, it would truly be difficult to kill someone at the peak of the Common Mysterious Stage!
Even if he were to use all advantageous means, it would be very possible he would still not be able to kill Xin Wuji. After all, being the son of the Heavenly Emperor, Xin Wuji would surely have many tricks up his sleeve!
At the same time, Xin Wuji had not lacked Supreme Dao weapons!
The two of them chased after each other with deep worries. They started to play a chasing game at the Ten Thousand Flower Valley. For each several hundred miles, Qin Wushuang would regroup with Jiu Fang Yunfei. He would remind Jiu Fang Yunfei of which direction to go to avoid the Nine Change Celestial Tiger.
At least tens and thousands of martial artists had entered this Ten Thousand Flower Valley. After two day and two nights of chasing, the Nine Change Celestial Tiger had eaten more than one thousand martial artists.
The circumstance at the Ten Thousand Flower Valley was getting tougher day after day. Besides super martial artists such as Xin Wuji and Qin Wushuang, almost everyone was in danger.
At the same time when Qin Wushuang and Xin Wuji were chasing after each other, in some deep part of the Ten Thousand Flower Valley, a group of young female martial artists had gathered in secret. Apparently, these female martial artists were disciples of the Emei Daoist Sect. Little Can, in black clothing, was among the ranks.
Only, each of these female disciples had revealed a grim expression. Under the stern look of a girl in yellow, each of them held their breath and did not dare to utter a sound. For the time, this situation appeared extremely oppressive.
