Chapter 3997 Can we talk now?
Until the end, Qin Cheng stood there, unable to move.
Elder Jing, standing five meters away from Qin Cheng, pointed his sword directly at Qin Cheng's neck with an indifferent look on his face.
"This thing is called the soul-locking rope. It is difficult to break free even if you are in the second stage of the Tribulation. I advise you not to struggle."
"Elder, I just saved you. It's not good for you to repay kindness with enmity for the sake of the spiritual stone." Qin Cheng stared at Elder Jing and said with a smile.
"We were fighting side by side before, but now you are planning to tie me up. Isn't this appropriate?"
"Young and I are playing tricks on each other. With just a few spiritual stones, I won't have evil intentions." Elder Jing's eyes narrowed slightly.
"Tell me the truth, who are you."
"Who am I? Elder Jing, did you hurt your eyes in the battle, or did you dislike me in the past, so you plan to take the opportunity to take revenge? Of course I am Qiu Zuo." Qin Cheng's heart trembled, but he said casually.
"Pooh!"
Elder Jing sneered.
"Do you think that because I support Gu Shuyan in the Star Palace and don't know Qiu Zuo, you think you can pretend to be him?"
"Let me tell you, this son Qiu Zuo was brought back to the Star Palace by me. Even his cultivation enlightenment was taught by me. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is half of my disciple."
"But because I know him so well, I know that this son is not suitable for vigorous training, let alone inheriting the position of the Lord of the Star Palace. I remember this bastard's behavior, methods and strength clearly, how can I not see Qiu Zuo?
"
Qin Cheng raised his eyebrows.
Sure enough, there was still an oversight.
The information I got from some Star Palace disciples and hearsay was still not accurate enough.
Who would have thought that Elder Jing's displeasure with Qiu Zuo was not because he was close to Gu Shuyan, but because he knew Qiu Zuo too well.
"Elder Jing, people can change. I was frustrated at Enlightenment Mountain and reflected on it for a few days, so I became enlightened." Qin Cheng continued to stall for time.
"Nature is easy to change but hard to change. That guy Qiu Zuo is greedy, short-sighted, shallow, and likes to do things by any means. Could it be that after a few days of reflection, all his temperament has changed?"
Elder Jing looked indifferent.
"With his ability, he can't see the problem with this monster bear at all, let alone take the risk to resolve the conflict in this way. My patience is limited, stop talking nonsense to me, who are you and who sent you?
Did you sneak in? If you don't say anything, you will suffer."
When he saw that the other party was sure that he was not the one, Qin Cheng stopped covering up.
"You are right, I am indeed not Qiu Zuo."
Although he had expected it, when Qin Cheng actually said these words, Elder Jing could not help but shrink his pupils.
Someone actually infiltrated into their Mingzhou monks and gathered a team of more than a dozen people, but the others didn't know it at all.
"But it doesn't matter who I am. Even if I am not Qiu Zuo, as long as it is beneficial to Mingzhou and saves your life, isn't it a good thing?"
"You are not qualified to negotiate these conditions with me. If you reveal your true colors and then take out what you have gained before, I will consider sparing you." Elder Jing said arrogantly.
"It seems that under this situation, I can't communicate with you normally?"
"As a prisoner, you are not worthy of communicating with me." Elder Jing snorted coldly.
Qin Cheng shook his head and smiled instead.
"Then why not, let's talk in another way."
Having said this, Qin Cheng suddenly began to tense up, the spiritual energy all over his body surged violently, and the soul-locking rope became tighter and tighter.
"Idiot, if you continue like this, you will only kill yourself." Elder Jing sneered.
However, Qin Cheng only had a smile on his face.
Bang!
What shocked Elder Jing next was that when the soul-locking rope was compressed to the extreme, Qin Cheng's body actually exploded.
No flesh and blood spattered out, Qin Cheng's body actually turned into a piece of black material. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be poisonous insects the size of sesame seeds.
"wrong!"
Elder Jing was stunned for a moment, then his mind tensed instantly, his pupils shrank, and the sword in his hand swept towards the back and the sky.
In the previous battle between Qin Cheng and the iron-eating beast, it could never be the condensed body of the poisonous insect. This also shows that Qin Cheng had already predicted that he would take action, and then moved his figure to another position.
A swish sound.
And under the sweeping sweep, several incoming objects were instantly chopped apart by Elder Jing.
However, these things were some kind of pills. After they were broken into pieces, they turned into black energy and spread out.
"Elder Jing, your response was very quick, but unfortunately it was just a little late."
Qin Cheng's figure slowly appeared from behind, holding a black pill crushed into powder in his hand.
The next moment, Elder Jing only felt that his whole body was weak, as if his strength had been drained away. The sword in his hand fell to the ground involuntarily, and then his knees could not support him and he collapsed directly on the ground.
"You, you actually poisoned me."
Elder Jing was dizzy, panting, frightened and angry, and he couldn't stand up.
"Actually, there are many ways, but I think it's best to solve the problem without fighting."
Qin Cheng also smiled and sat opposite Elder Jing.
Elder Jing's face was solemn and his body was shaking continuously, as if he was making some kind of effort.
"I advise you to stop struggling. After this poison elixir takes effect, the more you use your spiritual energy, the deeper the poison will erode and the weaker you will be."
"Now, I think I am qualified to communicate with you normally."
"you!"
Listening to these familiar words, Elder Jing almost vomited blood.
Qin Cheng returned everything he said before.
And he tried to force the poison out, but as Qin Cheng said, the poison could not be resolved at all.
This made Elder Jing despair. He blamed himself for not being careful enough. He thought that Qincheng was only in the Tribulation Realm and had been completely controlled, so he neglected to take precautions.
"You are so calculating. You are indeed quite capable. I admit defeat. You can kill me now."
Taking a deep breath, Elder Jing's breath disappeared from his body and he gave up resistance.
"Do you think I will kill you?" Qin Cheng raised his eyebrows.
"Isn't it possible?" Elder Jing sneered.
"Now that your secret is known to me, and the caves are sealed, after you kill me, you can blame those two demon bears. Zheng Ling and the others will not suspect it at all, and then you can continue to pretend to be Qiu Zuo.
, to snare my monk from Mingzhou."
"But let me tell you, if you do such a sinister thing, you will suffer backlash sooner or later. When Palace Master Hong and others find out, you will definitely die."
Elder Jing raised his chin.
"But I didn't want to kill you, I wanted to spare your life." Qin Cheng shook his head.
"Spare me?" Elder Jing was stunned for a moment, then laughed again.
"good!"
Speaking of this, his eyes revealed a look of determination, and he suddenly bit his teeth.
Bang!
Qin Cheng's eyelids twitched, his eyesight was quick, and his hands were quick. A burst of spiritual energy hit Elder Jing's cheek, and a black pill spurted out from his mouth.
