Chapter 134: Death of Qian Xunji
"Qian Xunji."
Just as he was about to advance on Bibi Dong, a sudden voice made the smile on his face freeze. It had been years since anyone had dared to call him by his name.
Qian Xunji's attention was drawn away. Bibi Dong took the opportunity to try and escape, but he snorted coldly, striking her on the back of the neck with a chop. She felt her vision go black and her body go limp, tears overflowing as she lost consciousness. In that final moment of despair, the person she thought of was not Yu Xiaogang, but Qin Xuan.
Qian Xunji burst through the door, his spirit power rising to its peak as he scanned the chamber. "It's you?" he said, staring as the secret room's iron door slowly opened, and a figure holding a sword appeared in his sight. Blood dripped from the sword's tip.
"You seem quite surprised," the figure said, stepping out of the darkness to reveal a flawless, handsome face.
"Where is the Second High Priest? Didn't she come with you?" Qian Xunji asked, looking around with apprehension.
"I came for the Holy Maiden," Qin Xuan said in a deep voice.
Hearing this, Qian Xunji burst into laughter. "It seems she didn't come. Although I don't know how you found this place, you shouldn't have come alone. My good second brother, since you've come, then stay." As he spoke, he summoned his Seraphim Martial Soul. "You had a path to heaven but didn't take it. You should have died two years ago."
His fifth spirit ring lit up. "Fifth Spirit Ability — Angelic Sacred Sword!" A golden light sword formed in his hand, and just as he was about to throw it, a ghostly cold voice echoed beside his ear.
"You don't have this chance."
As the words fell, a pure white sharp blade pierced through Qian Xunji's chest. Strangely, no blood flowed; the wound was instantly frozen. The Angelic Sacred Sword fell to the ground with a clink.
"This… how is this possible…" he gasped, looking down at his chest in disbelief. His consciousness gradually blurred. Even now, he couldn't believe someone dared to kill him. He circulated his spirit power, using his last bit of strength to shout, "The one who killed me, it was Qin Xuan and Jingni Douluo! Father, avenge me… Ah…"
Jing Ni snorted coldly and pulled out her blade. Qian Xunji screamed and fell to the ground.
"Do you think the High Priest can hear you in this place?" Qin Xuan asked, walking over.
"Of course, he can! This secret room cannot block spirit power transmissions from a Titled Douluo!" he laughed, blood overflowing from his mouth. "Haha… Qin Xuan, you're finished! My father won't let you go!"
"Did you think I hadn't anticipated this?" Qin Xuan waved his hand, and a black figure appeared beside him, kneeling. "Lord Qin Xuan." It was Mo Ya.
"Let me introduce you," Qin Xuan said. "This is my subordinate, Mo Ya. He has the ability to completely block sound. As soon as you saw me, he had already activated a layer of soundproofing. Your voice cannot get out. I thought you would call for help the moment you sensed someone, but you didn't. You were too careless."
"My only regret is that I didn't kill you two years ago," Qian Xunji gasped.

"But the problem is you didn't, isn't it?" Qin Xuan smiled. "Ever since you tried to kill me, there has been an unending feud between us. But rest assured, my dear elder brother. I will take over Spirit Hall for you. I will lead it to glory." He then half-crouched. "And your family... I will take good care of them too. I will personally care for your wife and children."

"So you had it all planned out…" Qian Xunji's eyes widened in fury. He didn't know where he found the strength, but in a final burst of energy, he extended his hand to twist Qin Xuan's throat. But Jing Ni delivered another sword strike, and at the same time, Qin Xuan's own Changming Sword sliced through Qian Xunji's neck.
