Chapter 340: “I Want to Go Down With You!
Thinking about how hard Nangong Mian had worked these past three years, Nangong Yan felt deeply distressed.
Quan Quan was right; A-Mian had suffered a lot over these three years.
“Alright,” Nangong Yan said, “I won’t leave. I’ll wait for A-Mian to come back and apologize to him.”
Now that everything had been explained, Huang Quan looked at him and asked, “Second Brother, can you show me that fragment?”
Hearing this, Nangong Yan nodded. “Sure.”
But just as he agreed, another voice sounded in his mind: “Nangong Yan, you cannot give it to her! If you do, I’ll never be able to get it back!”
Without hesitation, Nangong Yan took out a box from his storage space.
“The thing inside releases a strong death aura,” he said. “Only by keeping it in this box can it be isolated.”
Huang Quan looked at the box and said, “That fragment was originally kept in a box like this, inside the forbidden area of the Ling Clan, wasn’t it?”
“Yes,” Nangong Yan nodded, a bit surprised. “Quan Quan, how do you know?”
Huang Quan replied, “The material of this box is very special. It’s not something just anyone could find.”
“Ah! No! Nangong Yan, take it back! You must not give it to her!”
The man in Nangong Yan’s mind was genuinely panicking. The death aura on Di Qin was so strong, yet Huang Quan could come into contact with him without any problems. This showed that she wasn’t afraid of death aura. If she wasn’t afraid, then once the fragment reached her hands, how could he ever get it back?
While the man was throwing a fit in Nangong Yan’s mind, Huang Quan had already opened the box.
The moment it was opened, a dense death aura began to emanate.
Because of his connection with the man, Nangong Yan could see it. Seeing the death aura, he frowned and said, “Quan Quan, prolonged exposure to death aura can make you sick.”
Huang Quan replied, “I know, Second Brother. But I’ll be fine, don’t worry.”
“Exactly,” the man added in Nangong Yan’s mind, “You don’t need to worry about your sister. The death aura on Di Qin is even denser than this, and you saw how she had no problems being around him, right?”
The voice continued, “Your sister is a freak!”
“Say that one more time,” Nangong Yan’s cold voice sounded.
Hearing the coldness in Nangong Yan’s voice, the man fell silent.
Their communication was all happening in their minds, so those outside were unaware of it. They only saw Nangong Yan suddenly darkening his expression. However, everyone’s attention was focused on the contents of the box, so no one asked further.
Inside the box was a fragment about the thickness of a thumb, identical to the one Huang Quan had previously obtained from Ku Yue. It was a piece of the King of Hell’s Order.
How peculiar.
Ku Yue had obtained his piece in the Netherworld Wilderness, and this one was from the Ling Clan’s forbidden grounds. It seemed that these fragments existed both in the human world and the Netherworld.
“Second Brother, I must confess, I also have a piece like this,” Huang Quan said. “The death aura it releases is useful to me. I want to discuss with him to see if he can give me this fragment.”
“If he agrees, as a token of gratitude, I’ll find a way to create a body for him,” Huang Quan continued. “It just takes some time to get the right body.”
Upon hearing this, everyone didn’t think much of it. They assumed Huang Quan was looking for a recently deceased corpse for him, not realizing that Huang Quan could actually create a body.
“He agreed,” Nangong Yan said. “Without Di Qin’s blood, we can’t make the Soul Searcher. This piece is useless to him and might even cause harm to others if mishandled. Since it’s useful to you, Quan Quan, take it.”
“Ah! No!”
The man in Nangong Yan’s mind screamed again: “Nangong Yan, I want to go down with you!”
Chapter 341: “He Will Die Early”
Huang Quan’s mouth twitched. It was clear that Second Brother hadn’t communicated with that person properly.
“Second Brother, I’ll handle it myself,” Huang Quan said firmly.
Seeing her insistence, Nangong Yan finally relented. “Alright.”
He then closed his eyes. When he transferred control of his body to the man, Nangong Yan’s voice, filled with coldness, echoed in his mind. “My sister respects you greatly and wants to speak with you personally. If you dare to call her a freak again, I guarantee you’ll be thrown out.”
The man replied, “…Alright, understood.”
When Nangong Yan opened his eyes again, his demeanor had changed.
Huang Quan looked at the man, first returning the box to him and then repeating her terms.
The man asked, “Why should I trust you?”
Huang Quan answered, “I can forcibly remove you from my Second Brother’s body.”
The man shuddered, feeling as though his entire soul was in agony.
“It’s not good for you to keep occupying my Second Brother’s body. I can find a place for you, so even if you don’t have this fragment, you won’t disappear.”
The man glanced at Huang Quan and then at Di Qin, remaining silent.
He couldn’t defeat Di Qin, nor could he defeat Huang Quan.
Although Nangong Yan forbade him from calling his sister a freak, she was indeed one!
Who wouldn’t be afraid of death aura?
Huang Quan wasn’t merely putting on a brave face; she genuinely wasn’t afraid. He could see that.
With a formidable enemy outside and a vigilant presence within, he knew if he didn’t comply, he might be forcibly removed and have the fragment snatched from him, leading to his ultimate demise.
After envisioning a series of scenarios, the man finally compromised. “Tell me where it is first.”
“In a separate space,” Huang Quan replied. “This space is isolated from the outside and won’t expose you. You can rest assured.”
Though, she would need to make a significant sacrifice…
The man said, “I need to see it first.”
“Then come out of my Second Brother’s body,” Huang Quan countered.
The man frowned. “I promised your Second Brother I would help him find his parents and elder brother. I haven’t found them yet.”
“If I come out now, it would be breaking my word.”
Huang Quan said, “If you don’t come out, you can’t search for them either.”
“The Soul Searcher is unrealistic,” Huang Quan explained. “Your idea of using this fragment as the core to create the Soul Searcher is idealistic, but you might not know how special this fragment is. You won’t succeed.”
What a joke!
The fragments of the King of Hell’s decree aren’t something that can just be forged!
Even with a bowl of heart’s blood, it would be impossible to succeed!
“I’ll handle the search for his parents and elder brother,” Huang Quan said. “I’ll find a way to locate them.”
“And staying inside my Second Brother’s body like this is really harmful to him,” Huang Quan continued. “Even pure-blooded spirit clan members can’t fully resist death aura. How could my Second Brother, who only has half spirit clan blood, withstand it?”
“Even though my mother’s bloodline is very high and Second Brother inherited a high spirit clan bloodline, it’s still not enough to endure your relentless torment year after year.”
“You know best how my Second Brother’s body is faring since you’re inside him. Have you noticed?” Huang Quan said. “His soul has been tainted by death aura.”
“Once the soul is tainted by death aura, it will gradually be eroded, and he will die early.”
Nangong Yan’s body did indeed show some issues, but the man hadn’t realized it had become so severe.
As Nangong Yan’s mother’s brother, though not biologically, he was still closely related. He never intended to harm anyone, let alone kill Nangong Yan.
Thinking this over, the man said, “I agree.”
