Chapter 146: Blood Harp Clues
"Bah, you can kill us or chop us up as you please! You can't get any information out of us!" The old man with black beard roared in a loud voice, looking as if he was ready to die.
"Okay, let's see who to kill first?" Qing Yi glanced at the three of them one by one, a sly look in his eyes. He noticed that the white-bearded old man's eyes were a little evasive, and he immediately had an idea in his mind: Okay, it's you!
"Let's take you. You are the eldest brother, so you take the lead. If you die first, you will still be the eldest brother in the next life!" Qing Yi smiled, then his eyes flashed, and he was about to take action.
Qingqing was standing next to Qingfeng, only able to utter a "Hey..." She was puzzled. Qingyi was so quick to act. This was in the street, with so many people watching. How could he kill someone in public? And he hadn't even asked anything yet?
But before she could say anything else, she saw that the old monster with white beard was even more anxious than her. His face turned pale in an instant and he shouted hurriedly: "Hero, hero, wait, wait!"
"Hmm?" Qing Yi saw this, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he withdrew his hand. He had deliberately frightened this white-bearded old man because he thought he was timid and cherished his life.
"It's that woman who wants to kill you!" The old monster with white beard gasped and said hurriedly.
"Which woman?" Qing Yi asked, a sharp light flashing in his eyes.
"Big brother!" The red-bearded monster and the black-bearded monster stopped the white-bearded monster at the same time. They were angry and anxious in their hearts. Why was the big brother so afraid of death that he confessed so quickly?
"My two dear brothers, we came here to kill people for the bounty. Now that we can't kill them and can't get the bounty, why bother risking our own lives?" The old monster with white beard rolled his eyes. He was very good at finding a way out for himself, and his words sounded very righteous.
"Yes, as long as you tell us who is the mastermind behind this, I will let you go!" Qing Yi's eyes turned, and he threw out the bait, trying to get the truth out of them.
"I will tell you if you promise to let us go." The old monster with white beard looked cautious, with a hint of suspicion in his eyes. It was obvious that he did not completely believe Qing Yi's words.
"Yes, I promise." Qing Yi responded casually, but he was secretly wondering in his heart why this old weird was so slow.
"He will guarantee it." The old monster with white beard didn't buy it and turned his gaze to Ye Qingyu, obviously trusting him more.
"Hmm? You think I can't make the decision?" Qing Yi was immediately indignant, his mind full of confusion. What was going on? Was he really that unreliable and untrustworthy? Why did all these people trust the quiet Xiao Ye and not him?
Upon hearing this, the old monster with white beard remained silent, just staring at Qing Yi, his eyes full of suspicion. He really didn't believe this seemingly cynical young man in front of him.
"..." Qing Yi was speechless for a while and could only look at Ye Qingyu helplessly.
"Okay, as long as you tell the truth, I will spare the lives of the three of you." Ye Qingyu said in a deep and powerful voice, with an unquestionable majesty.
The three Winter Monsters exchanged a glance, a hint of hesitation flashing in their eyes. Finally, the old man with the white beard spoke: "That woman is the Donglai Witch Bai Lingfeng."
"Bai Lingfeng? Who is that?" Qing Yi scratched his head, seemingly having no impression of the name.
Ye Qingyu was also thinking rapidly in his mind about who this person was. He didn't seem to know him, so why would he hire someone to kill him?
"You young people, you don't even know the Donglai Witch? I remember that she was also a famous figure in the martial arts world, but then she disappeared for some reason. A few days ago, we received a letter asking us to intercept and kill you!" The white-bearded monster couldn't help but say when he saw their confused faces.
"She is famous? Xiaoye, you may have heard of her?" Qing Yi didn't know much about the Central Plains martial arts world. He looked at Ye Qingyu again, hoping to get an answer from him.
Ye Qingyu shook his head. Seeing this, the old monster with the red beard couldn't help but laugh at him, "You kids are really ignorant. Haven't you heard of the magic flute and the blood harp?"
Ye Qingyu was shocked when she heard this and blurted out, "Magic Flute Blood Harp? Bai Lingfeng? So it's her?"
Qing Yi also remembered that when they had gone to Donglai Kingdom, they had come across a martial arts competition arena. At that time, there was a person named Li Wuxie who used a magic flute. Could it be that magic flute? Because the magic flute was poisonous and could not be touched by others, it was left to Qing Yi. Qing Yi did not want to use something that had been used by others, so he left it in the Demon Cult and did not carry it with him.
"Snow is blood, no trace should be filled with hatred, no demon will eventually become a demon." Ye Qingyu muttered to himself, a flash of understanding in his eyes. For many years, he had been determined to find the whereabouts of the blood harp he remembered, but he always gave up halfway. Unexpectedly, he stumbled upon a clue here.
"Haha, kid actually knew that?" The red-bearded monster couldn't help but look up to his opponent in white shirt. He didn't expect that this young man actually knew the secrets of the martial arts world.
"Where is she?" Ye Qingyu asked, his eyes full of inquiry.
"I don't know. If the letter and the keepsake hadn't been delivered this time, we wouldn't have known she was still alive. She hasn't shown up for decades." The white-bearded old monster spread his hands and said helplessly.
"Are you her subordinates? You haven't been in contact for decades. Why did she suddenly appear and ask you to kill people, and you did it so obediently?" Qing Yi frowned and asked with a puzzled look on his face.
"I... Alas, I owed her a favor when we were young, and she promised us a bounty..." The old monster with white beard regretted taking this task. Now think about it, if these people were easy to kill, why didn't Bai Lingfeng do it himself?
"Hehe, returning the favor? Or are you blinded by money?" Qing Yi couldn't help laughing, his eyes full of sarcasm.
The Three Winter Monsters were already martial arts masters, but now, having their acupuncture points blocked and surrounded by a crowd, they felt utterly humiliated. Qing Yi's ridicule only made them blush even more. Their reputation, built over decades of martial arts, was in tatters.
"You really don't know the whereabouts of Bai Lingfeng? If you know, please report it truthfully to us three seniors." Ye Qingyu said politely, with a humble and courteous attitude.
"Huh?" Qing Yi was puzzled. Why did Xiao Ye speak so politely? Even the three Sui Han monsters felt flattered. They widened their eyes and looked incredulous.
"I really don't know. She asked a little beggar to deliver the letter and the keepsake. But I think since she showed up, she must be nearby." The white-bearded old monster analyzed, with a hint of thought in his eyes.
"Well, Qingyi, help the three seniors to unlock the Xuedao." Ye Qingyu ordered, his voice calm and firm.
