Immortal God of War

Chapter 667 - 638: An Old Acquaintance_2

Initially, he just couldn’t figure it out. But after careful pondering, he understood.

WHOOSH!

At that moment, Qin Feiyang appeared out of thin air.

The pungent smell of blood immediately rushed towards Dong Zhengyang and his group.

"Huh?"

They were taken aback.

And when they saw Wu Yan and Xui Yang, their scalps couldn’t help but tingle.

Lu Xingchen smirked. "Do you still think he has masochistic tendencies now?"

"Masochistic tendencies?"

"I’d say he’s more of a sadist," Dong Zhengyang said, shaking his head with a bitter smile.

Dongfang Wuheng and Murong Xiong exchanged a look, a trace of lingering fear in their eyes.

Luckily, they hadn’t said much back then; otherwise, their fate might have been the same as Wu Yan and Xui Yang’s.

After emerging, Qin Feiyang wordlessly dragged Wu Yan and Xui Yang straight towards the Bridge of Helplessness.

"What is he trying to do?"

Dong Zhengyang’s group, as well as the people from Feng Province and Yu State, watched him in confusion.

They watched Qin Feiyang walk to the edge of the bridge, scanning the vast black ocean below the Bridge of Helplessness.

Suddenly, he lifted Wu Yan and Xui Yang and threw them forcefully.

THUD!

The two plunged into the ocean, sending up splashes of water.

The ocean’s corrosive power was indeed terrifying. Neither of them even had a chance to scream before they were completely disintegrated, leaving not even bones behind!

Witnessing this, everyone present trembled.

On one hand, they were shocked by the ocean’s corrosive power.

On the other, they were terrified by Qin Feiyang’s ruthless methods.

The people from Feng Province and Yu State, in particular, couldn’t fathom how those two had offended Qin Feiyang to provoke such a brutal response.

"Alright now."

"The nuisances have been dealt with."

"Have you all rested well? If so, let’s set off."

Qin Feiyang casually clapped his hands, turned, and looked at Dong Zhengyang and the others, asking.

"More or less," Dong Zhengyang said, getting up.

Lu Xingchen, Dongfang Wuheng, Murong Xiong, Shen Long, and Jian Wei also rose to their feet one after another.

Qin Feiyang nodded, looked at the woman from Feng Province, and smiled. "Miss, until we meet again."

The woman sighed. "Are you really not going to travel with us?"

Qin Feiyang smiled faintly. "This was a group decision. My apologies."

The woman smiled helplessly. "Well then, I wish you a safe journey."

"Thank you."

Qin Feiyang cupped his hands in thanks, then turned and strode towards the Bridge of Helplessness.

Ren Wushuang and the others quickly followed Qin Feiyang.

BOOM!

But at that very moment, a powerful aura suddenly erupted.

"Huh?"

Qin Feiyang was startled and turned to look.

It turned out the aura originated from the blue-haired young man.

"Elder Brother Ling has broken through!"

"Now the strength of our Yu State has increased by a large margin!"

The few people surrounding the blue-haired young man immediately exclaimed in joyous surprise.

"Elder Brother Ling?" Qin Feiyang raised an eyebrow.

The Wolf King on his shoulder transmitted, "Is there a problem?"

"No problem," Qin Feiyang transmitted back. "I just suddenly remembered someone."

"Who?" the Wolf King asked via voice transmission.

WHOOSH!

Suddenly, the blue-haired young man opened his eyes, and two dazzling beams of light shot out from them.

When Qin Feiyang saw the young man’s eyes, his gaze trembled slightly.

The man’s eyes were, astonishingly, also sky blue!

Sky-blue hair...

Sky-blue eyes...

And his surname...

How could there be such a coincidence in this world?!

Meanwhile, the blue-haired young man stood up, cupped his hands towards everyone around him, and said with a smile, "Thank you all for protecting me these past few days."

As he spoke, his aura rapidly receded.

"Why are you still being so polite with us?"

"Exactly. If it weren’t for you, Elder Brother Ling, protecting us, we never would have made it here."

"If anyone should be thanking someone, it should be us thanking you," the people from Yu State said with laughter.

The blue-haired young man smiled, then turned to Qin Feiyang. "I was in the process of breaking through earlier and didn’t greet Brother Qin in time. I hope Brother Qin can overlook this."

However, Qin Feiyang seemed not to have heard. He was sizing up the blue-haired young man, apparently lost in thought.

The blue-haired young man was momentarily taken aback, then smiled again. "I’ve long heard of Brother Qin’s great name. To finally meet you in person is truly my fortune of three lifetimes."

But Qin Feiyang still didn’t answer.

"What’s going on?"

Ren Wushuang and the others exchanged glances, their eyes full of doubt.

The people from Feng Province and Yu State were also bewildered.

However, a closer look would reveal that the expressions of four individuals were somewhat unnatural.

One of them was the blue-haired young man from Yu State.

Another was also from Yu State—the woman who had conversed with Qin Feiyang earlier.

The remaining two were from Feng Province.

One was the formidable woman who had overpowered Wan Chou.

The other was also a woman of ordinary appearance, but the aura she exuded was comparable to that of the formidable woman.

Clearly, she was also a Three-Star War Ancestor!

The fact that Three-Star War Ancestors from both major provinces revealed such expressions was certainly food for thought.

AHEM!

The blue-haired young man coughed, looked at Qin Feiyang again, and asked doubtfully, "Brother Qin, is there a problem?"

Qin Feiyang finally snapped back to reality, shaking his head and smiling. "It’s nothing. Seeing Brother Ling just reminded me of an old acquaintance."

Upon hearing this, the expressions of the blue-haired young man and the three women froze for an instant but quickly returned to normal.

The blue-haired young man chuckled. "It is my honor to remind Brother Qin of an old acquaintance. May I ask who Brother Qin was reminded of?"

"A deceased person."

Qin Feiyang lowered his head, a reminiscent look in his eyes. He sighed deeply, then looked up at the blue-haired young man and smiled. "Let’s not dwell on it. We’ll be going now."

The blue-haired young man cupped his hands with a smile. "I look forward to our next meeting, Brother Qin."

Qin Feiyang gave a faint smile and turned to look towards the Bridge of Helplessness.

The Wolf King glanced at the blue-haired young man and transmitted, "Xiao Qinzi, who were you thinking of just now?"

"Ling Yunfei," Qin Feiyang transmitted back.

The Wolf King’s gaze also flickered, and he looked again at the blue-haired young man.

Indeed, aside from his appearance, he was quite similar to Ling Yunfei.

However, Ling Yunfei’s death was an undeniable fact; it was impossible for him to reappear before them.

The Wolf King patted Qin Feiyang’s head reassuringly. "The dead cannot be resurrected. Don’t overthink it."

Qin Feiyang nodded, took a deep breath, and then unhesitatingly stepped onto the Bridge of Helplessness.

Ren Wushuang walked beside him, while Lu Xingchen and the others followed in sequence behind them, cautiously advancing.

Only when the group had vanished into the blood mist did the blue-haired young man and the others retract their gazes.

The woman from Feng Province transmitted, "Fortunately, he didn’t agree to travel with us. Otherwise, given enough time, he might indeed have uncovered our identities."

The blue-haired young man transmitted back, "Therefore, we must be even more cautious when facing him in the future."

The three women nodded imperceptibly.

"Let’s go too!"

The blue-haired young man waved his hand, and their large group surged onto the Bridge of Helplessness.

「Time passed swiftly.」

「Three days passed.」

The Bridge of Helplessness was deathly silent.

Qin Feiyang and his party didn’t know how far they had traveled.

However, their journey had been uneventful so far, which surprised them.

They even began to wonder if, like the Ghost Gate, the Bridge of Helplessness required an unconventional approach to reveal its end.

「Another three days passed.」

The group finally couldn’t help but stop.

Dongfang Wuheng frowned. "Isn’t this a little too quiet?"

Dong Zhengyang said gravely, "’When things are abnormally calm, something is amiss.’ Perhaps we’ve unknowingly walked into a dead end."

"You mean, we might be walking in circles?" Murong Xiong asked in surprise.

"That’s a possibility," Dong Zhengyang said.

"Huh!"

Ren Wushuang suddenly exclaimed, looking ahead in surprise.

"What is it?"

The others looked at her in confusion.

Ren Wushuang pointed ahead. "Look over there, do you see that? Is there something there?"

"Hm?"

Qin Feiyang and the others were startled, then followed her gaze. But apart from the blood mist, they saw nothing.

Lu Xingchen chuckled. "Wushuang, are you hallucinating?"

"Am I?" Ren Wushuang murmured, staring intently at the spot, her delicate brows knitted tightly.

Suddenly, she cried out, "Look! It appeared again!"

"Huh?"

Qin Feiyang and the others looked again, and this time, their eyes widened in astonishment.

Within the blood mist ahead, there was indeed a blurry shadow!

The group exchanged glances and immediately sped towards it.

Ten breaths later, they clearly saw the shadow’s true form—it was a stone gate.

More accurately, it was just a stone doorframe, with no actual door.

The doorframe, entirely black and over three meters high, stood upon the Bridge of Helplessness, exuding an icy and mysterious aura.

A moment later, the group halted five meters away, looking up at the doorframe, their faces filled with bewilderment.
