Refining the Mountains and Rivers-Chapter 1798 – Bounty

Capital of Great Qin, Xianyang!

There was a wide plain of ruins and many were dead or injured. 

The ground was still sinking in and the skies were breaking. Large cracks appeared on its surface, creating multiple fragments. 

Emperor Qin was in the Imperial Palace. 

All of a sudden, space shifted and the national advisor walked out. His expression changed and he cried, “Your Majesty!” Emperor Qin in front of him had many lines of wrinkles stretched across his forehead. He had grown old very quickly. 

“What happened?” 

Emperor Qin calmly said, “It is alright. Just some backlash. She suffered much greater injuries than me.” 

The national advisor’s eyes narrowed, “She attacked?” 

Emperor Qin nodded, “Like I expected, she knows some things and it was a pity that I could not capture her.” His eyes flashed, “I have already ruined the hidden card in Qin Yu’s hands. Give my orders. Anyone who kills Qin Yu will receive territory of the empire and the title of king!” 

The national advisor frowned, “Your Majesty, this…” 

Emperor Qin waved his hand, “I have already made my decision. You don’t have to say anything else.” 

Qin Yu must die! 

Feature’s appearance made him feel incredibly threatened. It was not related to strength but it was more related to karma. Qin Yu’s appearance seemed like a precursor to the end of his Great Qin. 

“Yes.” The national advisor bowed. 

In one day, the news had spread across all of the Central Desolate. 

Gifted territory of the empire! 

Crowned as a king! 

This was an enticement that had never been presented before. Killing Qin Yu might be hard but finding his whereabouts was only a question of luck. 

Sentiments were flaring up in the Central Desolate. 

At this moment, Qin Yu was still lying in the clouds and talking to Feature. 

He told her everything in detail without missing out anything that happened after they parted. 

It felt like Feature was not absent after he told her everything. It was like for all these years, they had not been separated. 

Feature was very patient and she did not cut Qin Yu off during his endless and very detailed description. However, there was an end to the past and after he talked about becoming a True King in the Bounded Void Space and how he went to the capital of the Qin Empire, Xianyang, he stopped. 

“Your experiences are very exciting and enriching.” Feature critiqued. “The only pity is that there isn’t any personal excitement. Qin Yu, you have already gotten to such a high cultivation realm. Furthermore, you have a good appearance. Why are you treating your body like it is jade? 

“People don’t live only for cultivation and you have to respect your bodily needs. You should also return favors to the world and make yourself happy. You have to correct this; don’t live life like an ascetic. It is not good for your body.” 

Qin Yu fell silent. 

Feature was also silent. 

“How long has it been?” 

“A day.” 

“I want to bring you to see someone.” 

“Qin Seven?” 

“Mm.” 

Feature stood up, “Then let’s go.” 

Shoosh – 

She waved her sleeve and the two people immediately disappeared. 

In the next moment, the space near Sky Cow City started to crumble apart. 

Bull Dingtian, who was currently at the Bull Family residence in the city wearing a serious expression, suddenly perked up. He suppressed the hesitant feelings he felt and gritted his teeth as he stepped out. Then, he appeared in front of Feature and Qin Yu. 

“Bull Dingtian greets My Lord.” 

He bowed and his eyes scanned Qin Yu. There was a bitter look in his eyes. 

Qin Yu said, “Senior Bull, don’t worry. I am only here to see Seven. I will not bring trouble to Sky Cow City.” 

Bull Dingtian could rest at ease slightly but he did not dare to let his guard down. He had seen what happened in Xianyang personally. 

If something like that happened again, the Bull Family would be finished! 

He side-glanced at Feature carefully and then spoke in a respectful manner, “My Lord, Sect Master Qin, please wait. I will bring her over quickly.”

He turned to leave. A few moments later, one more person arrived here. It was Qin Seven. 

“Brother!” 

Her eyes widened and she was filled with glee. 

Qin Yu smiled and pulled her over, “Come over. Let me introduce to you, this is Sister Feature…my good friend.” 

Feature rolled her eyes at him, “Don’t listen to your brother. Back then, I almost became your sister-in-law but he was a coward and missed his chance. Now, he is regretting it.” 

Qin Seven’s eyes widened as she stared at Feature. This was the first time she saw a woman being so brazen in front of her brother. 

Qin Yu laughed bitterly and he awkwardly rubbed his nose. As she observed this reaction, Qin Seven’s eyes brightened, “Greetings to Sister Feature.” 

She bowed sincerely. 

Feature nodded and smiled, “Good girl. You are very sweet, I will give you a candy.” She really took out a candy. 

Qin Yu’s expression changed slightly but before he could say anything, Feature’s gaze stopped him. 

“Open your mouth.” 

Qin Seven ate the sweet and smiled, “It is really sweet!” 

Instantly, Feature grew much warmer and the two stuck together and chit-chatted. 

Qin Yu was silent. 

Meanwhile, Bull Dingtian wore a heavy expression. After pondering, he said, “Sect Master Qin, I will head back first. Please come and find me before you leave.” 

He cupped his hands together and took his leave. 

Qin Seven had fallen asleep. She slept on the grass patch wearing a peaceful expression. 

The disorder that sucked at her life force continuously was now gone. 

Qin Yu spoke in a deep voice, “You should not have…” 

Feature glared at him, “Shut up, what should I not have done? At most I will leave half a day earlier, but Seven does not have to suffer.

“What kind of brother are you?” 

Qin Yu smiled bitterly, “I didn’t think of that…” 

“I know!” Feature cut him off and rolled her eyes at him, “Do you think that I am fooled so easily?” 

Qin Yu was silent for a long while, “How much longer before you leave?” 

Feature said, “Not long.”

There was silence in the room. 

The blades of grass swayed in the gentle breeze, but in this situation, they seemed to be lonelier and sadder. 

“Can you not leave?” Qin Yu finally asked, breaking the silence.

Feature sighed, “I don’t have a choice. I am not the main lead and I can only be the supporting actress.” She turned her body sideways to Qin Yu and looked at him, “Truthfully speaking, after I leave this time, I will truly not return. Will you miss me?” 

Qin Yu was silent. 

She sighed, “I am sad. You are so heartless.” She lifted a hand and caressed Qin Yu’s face, “I am really going to go. Are you sure that you are not going to look at me some more?” 

Qin Yu turned and hugged her. 

“That’s more like it!” 

Feature pressed against his chest and wiggled a bit before she found a comfortable position where she could close her eyes and smiled. 

Her entire body rapidly became more illusionary. Just like back then in the abyss, she dispersed like a shadow. 

Qin Yu tried very hard but he could not hold back his tears. 

His tears dripped on Feature’s face. Her long eyebrows shook slightly before she opened her eyes, “Don’t cry. Remember, I am her.

“We will meet again eventually.”

She disappeared. 

This time, the loneliness overshadowed him. Feature came and then she was gone again. It was a hurried greeting and goodbye. 

Meet again eventually…meet again… 

Qin Yu took a deep breath in before sighing out loud. He rubbed his eyebrows, “White Feifei!” 

Woosh –

Her body flashed and she bowed respectfully, “My Lord.”

Qin Yu flipped his palm over, revealed the Eternal Heart, and said, “Before you refine it, I have a few things to say.” 

He lifted his hand and pressed a finger on the Eternal Heart, “Wake up!” 

Buzz – 

The gold markings on the surface of it started to blink. Bright spots of gold started to move through the heart. 

After some silence, there was a dissatisfied voice, “Qin Yu, you are really annoying. I have already given myself to you, just let her refine me. Why must you wake me up?” 

It was annoyed, “Don’t you know that this is very cruel? This is the second time you’re forcing me to kill myself. Do you think I won’t change my mind?” 

Qin Yu said simply, “You can change your mind.” 

Eternal Heart jumped and it grew even more unsatisfied, “No! Hurry up and stop delaying!” 

White Feifei’s eyes were wide and she looked at Qin Yu and the Eternal Heart in his hands in disbelief. 

If she was not sure that the Eternal Heart was real, White Feifei would truly be suspicious of whether Qin Yu put on an act. How could it not struggle at all? 

She did not understand! 

Qin Yu said, “Answer my question. Otherwise, I guarantee you that White Feifei will not be refining you.” 

Eternal Heart shouted, “You are going too overboard! You actually dared to threaten me.” 

Boom –

Boom –

It beat furiously and a powerful aura leaked out. 

Qin Yu remained expressionless, “You can try.” 

After a brief moment of silence, Eternal Heart gritted its teeth, “You are vicious. Shoot your question!” 

Qin Yu said, “You are so cooperative?” 

“I have lived long enough and I can’t even die.” 

“Answer my question seriously. Otherwise, I will throw you to Xianyang. Emperor Qin will be very happy to regain what he lost.” 

Eternal Heart was at a loss for words.

“Qin bastard, listen up. The answer is that there is no answer; I also do not know why.

“When we first met, I wanted to strangle you, but when I heard your name, I thought I deserved to be taken by you. That it would be wrong for me to resist.

“Are you happy with this answer?” 

Qin Yu frowned. 

To other people, this might seem like an absurd answer that could not be trusted. However, Qin Yu thought of what Blue Dragon’s soul told him in the Starry Heavenly World. 

It had been waiting for Qin Yu’s arrival. When it encountered Qin Yu back then, Blue Dragon’s soul had directly merged into Qin Yu and it made him the new heaven and earth spirit of fate. 

There was no way to explain it but these were the facts. It was also the reason why Qin Yu started to suspect his own identity. 

It was possible that Eternal Heart had met the same situation. 

“You have been waiting for someone’s arrival and…I am that person!” 

Eternal Heart was silent. 

Sometimes, silence itself was the answer. 

Qin Yu released his hand, “White Feifei, it is yours.” 

White Feifei did not really understand the conversation between Qin Yu and Eternal Heart but this was not important. Right now, she only had eyes for Eternal Heart. When they merged, her powers would surge. 

White Feifei had seen her ‘weakness’ during the battle in Xianyang! Being by Qin Yu’s side came with its dangers. Something might happen in a moment of carelessness. 

Back then, she thought that Longevity Species were immortal but the corpse of the great beast was there. She had even ‘crossed’ time. A Longevity Species may by immortal, but facts proved that an iron law could be broken too. 

White Feifei did not want to die. 

Therefore, she urgently wanted to grow stronger. 

“Thank you My Lord!” 

She stretched her arm forward and grabbed the Eternal Heart. White Feifei sucked in a deep breath before pushing the Eternal Heart into her chest. Her five fingers stretched fully across the highest point of her plump breast that was white and pure. 

The Eternal Heart merged into her body without any accidents. 

Boom –

A powerful energy surged out of her body. 

Qin Yu formed a thought and the Mountains and Rivers Sword flew forward. Sword aura instantly hardened the surrounding space and captured White Feifei’s aura in an enclosed area. 

Although he had not seen the great battle between Feature and Emperor Qin, Feature’s disappearance explained everything. 

Emperor Qin must really want to find and kill him. 

Qin Yu would not give him that chance. He would live and survive till the day that he could reunite with her. 

I am her… 

But who is she? 

Qin Yu thought of Rourou and then the Ruler, the two strongest women beside him. 

The little blue lamp may know something but it was a pity that he kept his mouth tightly shut and he did not reveal anything. 

Right now, he was pretending to be dead, like a corpse. It was virtually impossible to get an answer from him. 

Sighing deeply, Qin Yu suppressed his thoughts. 

White Feifei started to transform. The skirt she wore grew exquisite and her skin became smoother and whiter. She seemed like a perfect beauty. 

The only problem was that her skirt was too small and it revealed too much. She was truly testing the boundaries of ‘nudity’. 

Shoosh – 

Her eyes flew open, revealing her gleeful expression. She bowed respectfully, “Thank you My Lord!” 

The Eternal Heart had successfully merged with her. 

White Feifei knew that all of this was because of Qin Yu. If it was just her, it would not have been that easy to merge with the Eternal Heart. 

She may even have encountered grave danger. 

After a Longevity Species’ remnant body was suppressed for too long, every piece would have its own will. The Eternal heart was obviously the strongest part of her remnant body. 

Even though White Feifei had already integrated her heart into her body, she was not confident that she would have won against the fight that could have been put up by Eternal Heart. 

Yet, she had succeeded directly. With two hearts, the rest of her remnant body parts would not have a chance to fight against her to gain master control. 

This was the reason for her joy and respect. 

Qin Yu said, “Congratulations.” 

White Feifei answered, “My Lord was helping me.” 

Qin Yu nodded, “Stay here and look after Seven. I will return quickly.” He stepped out and arrived at Sky Cow City. 

This was obviously an important monitoring site for the Qin Empire, but as long as Emperor Qin did not descend personally, no one would discover him. 

However, since he promised it, he would not bring more trouble to Bull Family. Qin Yu showed himself briefly before turning to leave. 

Very soon, Bull Dingtian caught up to him. He cupped his hands together, “Thank you Sect Master Qin.” 

Qin Yu replied, “No, I have to thank Senior Bull for taking care of Seven for me.” 

Bull Dingtian shook his head, “As long as her identity is not exposed, she will be fine living in the Bull Family.” He waved his sleeve and sealed the area, “Sect Master Qin, I asked you over today because I have something for you to see.” 

He took out a jade slip. The numerous markings on it started to light up and it looked like layers of large webs were sealing what was inside the jade slip. 

Despite that, the jade slip was shaking slightly. With every shake, there would be another marking on its surface. 

The markings were fine and concentrated together. 

Even with the seal, it was not going to be easy to preserve the jade slip as it was. 

Qin Yu took the jade slip and looked at it carefully. 

Bull Dingtian said, “This is the recording of the battle in Xianyang that happened not too long ago. I thought you should have a look.” 

Qin Yu channeled his divine sense into it. A few moments later, there was a sharp snapping sound as the jade slip snapped into pieces. 

Bull Dingtian’s expression changed. 

Qin Yu retrieved his sword and cupped his hands together, “Thank you Senior Bull, the recording is really helpful to me. Don’t worry, I will cut off the aura connections and Emperor Qin will not notice.” 

Bull Dingtian smiled wryly, “That is good.” 

The Bull Family could not provoke Emperor Qin!  

After some hesitation, he said, “That Lord…” 

Qin Yu answered, “She left.” 

Bull Dingtian nodded without thinking over it too much. After all, it was very normal for such a powerful existence not to remain in this world.

“Sect Master Qin, you have to be careful. Emperor Qin placed a bounty on you. Now, everyone is looking for you!” 

Qin Yu calmly said, “Then let them come.”
