Night Without End-Chapter 1049 - 487: Back in the Jianghu

The Thunder King Bird stirred up strong winds from afar, letting out a long, resonant cry.

The suspicious figure was alarmed, retreating swiftly and disappearing into the thick night fog.

Qin Ming didn’t want to fight in Shuangshu Village; now that he was far away, he could unleash his strength freely. He manipulated the fierce gusts of wind, flying at great speed a dozen feet above the ground.

"Hmm?" The black-clad middle-aged man ahead whipped around abruptly, mainly due to the tumultuous gusts that surged like thunder, fiercely agitating him, causing panic.

He was a master of the Fourth Realm; despite some physical issues in this current climate, he was still extraordinarily formidable without severe illness.

Yet now, the person behind him controlled winds so frightful that he couldn’t maintain his balance and was nearly overthrown.

"Black Wind!" He gasped, knowing this type of wind could disperse one’s spirit, trained to high levels it would become the legendary wind disaster.

He retaliated immediately when he saw the person hovering in the night sky, riding the fierce gusts, was Qin Ming. Instantly, his pupils contracted slightly.

Clearly, he recognized Qin Ming.

"I don’t care who you are, overreach too far, and your hand will be severed!" Qin Ming said in a low voice, sensing the other’s panic, clearly not from a just background.

The man in black unfurled a small silver flag, enlarging rapidly in the wind, rushing into the night sky, emitting overlapping ripples.

Qin Ming himself remained unmoved, as the roaring wind intensified multiplicatively, then, in the mid-air a dozen meters above, the glowing silver treasure banner tore apart with a ripping sound by the fierce gust.

Then the storm surged, dust and stones from the ground flew, like blades cutting through, slicing open the desolate landscape with gaps a foot wide everywhere.

The man screamed miserably as one arm severed and fell to the ground, then was thrown flying before crashing to the earth.

He was incredulous, a dignified Fourth Realm expert, being so easily subdued against a mere Third Realm youngster’s intelligence reports.

This overturned his understanding as the opponent stood aloof in mid-air, not even using rumored Hunyuan Force, yet crushed him completely.

Considering himself formidable, he couldn’t endure even a single move before being oppressed by the black fierce gust, immobilized on the ground with unstoppable blood from the severed arm. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

"Please, hold! I bear no ill will, coming openly, I have something to say." The black-clad middle-aged man cried painfully.

"For a long time I haven’t appeared, do you truly think I am absent?" Qin Ming said coldly as he descended from mid-air to the ground, sensing the other’s hostility.

Facing such a two-faced person, he couldn’t be bothered with idle words, the fierce gusts caused the other’s spirit to dim, blown out of the body, dissipating continually.

"Speak, where are you from, what is your purpose in Shuangshu Village?" Qin Ming interrogated.

"Ah!" The black-clad man’s consciousness spiritual light was about to completely explode, his spiritual field like candle flames in the wind, about to extinguish, overwhelming him with fear.

In an instant, various intense emotions surged forth, which Qin Ming resonated easily and clearly.

The black-clad man’s only purpose in coming to Shuangshu Village was to ascertain if Qin Ming had returned.

Some forces were exceedingly "attentive" to Qin Ming, aiming to keep track of his movements.

Over the past two years, whether secluded in the deep mountains or traveling far to the Outer Domain, Qin Ming vanished from the sight of "concerned people," yet related parties never "forgot" him.

"Originally, I intended to remain low-key, but you prefer to give ’resonance,’ difficult." Qin Ming’s voice was deep.

He heard recently some Earth Immortals struck, but their bodies couldn’t withstand such consequences, culminating in death.

This indicated the great environment was shifting dramatically, many experts forced to hibernate.

"If we could strike half a year later, perhaps it would be even more secure." Qin Ming mused.

He gazed down at the man, the storm raging, immediate cries of terror from the ground: "No, Brother Qin, don’t kill me, let’s talk."

"You hold no more value." Qin Ming replied calmly.

The black fierce gust roared, as if numerous Black Gold Flying Swords crossed over, quickly shredding the man’s body, extinguishing his consciousness spiritual light alongside.

Subsequently, Qin Ming waved his long sleeve, and the ground’s cracks were smoothed in the furious wind, restoring it to its original state.

The talking sparrow’s gemstone-like eyes widened, its bird face awash with shock, exclaimed: "After not seeing for some time, the Mountain Master grows increasingly unfathomable, from start to finish never touched the foe, yet suppressed him into the ground, dying in humiliation!"

The Thunder King Bird was also dumbfounded, indeed in jest the masts and boats vanished in smoke, Qin Ming from start to finish stood with folded arms, while slaying the enemy yet remaining transcendently detached.

"Uncle Qin!" The Red Squirrel, after a series of events, no longer dared to be defiant, already submissive, its six eyes glowing across three heads.

Qin Ming asked: "You all should have some acquaintance with the High Level Abnormalities deep within Black and White Mountain, right?"

He knew that over the past two years, these three mutant creatures before him had been secluded in Black and White Mountain for cultivation.

"Mountain Master, if you have any tasks, just give the orders!" The talking sparrow lifted its three heads, patting its chest with wings as it spoke.

Qin Ming said: "Relay a message to the Dog...umm, to that Sword Immortal in the Forbidden Land, saying some people intend harm to Shuangshu Village and may endanger Granny Liu, now even abducting one of the Holy Son’s companions."

Regarding that dog, he was admittedly wary, unwilling to contact it directly.

He had thoroughly investigated and understood the true origins of the Dog Sword Immortal, was indeed once a generation’s Beast God, regarded as a peerless fierce demon, and possessing a narrow mind.
