Qin Chu smiled, knowing that the Vermilion Bird Family's situation was more than just spitting blood; it was estimated that few of their people who came this time would leave Sky Sword City alive, as Qin Lingxi and Qin Longxuan had already decided to act ruthlessly.
Thinking of this, Qin Chu considered it a good thing. The big trap he set would cause a conflict between the Blade God Valley and the Vermilion Bird Family. Then, the Vermilion Bird Family's people would be killed by the Vermilion Bird Family, and the Blade God Valley would likely not be able to avoid taking the blame.
"Junior Brother, what are you thinking about?" Shang Shuyu waved her hand in front of Qin Chu.
"Senior Sister, I think the Vermilion Bird Family will definitely clash with the Blade God Valley. We should also involve the White Tiger Family, as for the Azure Dragon Family, let's just forget about them," Qin Chu said, looking at Shang Shuyu.
Shang Shuyu sized up Qin Chu. "Junior Brother, I originally thought you only Cultivated quickly and had strong combat power, but now I find your mind is also quite terrifying."
"They are insidious and vicious. I can't just not think of any solutions and stubbornly fight them head-on; I can't beat them!" Qin Chu said with a wry smile. Shang Shuyu nodded. "It's a pity we burned the bodies of those from the Blade God Valley. We don't have many opportunities to gather them together."
"It doesn't matter, we still have a chance. Finding the Spiritual Intent Grass is the priority; we can't delay the main business!" With that, Qin Chu led Shang Shuyu into the area where level eight Sword Intent erupted.
Upon entering the area where level eight Sword Intent erupted, Qin Chu felt a lot of pressure because the Sword Intent was too sharp. Even though it shot up into the sky, its suppression on Qin Chu and Shang Shuyu was undeniable.
"Senior Sister, can you do it?" Qin Chu turned to look at Shang Shuyu.
"I'm fine. If I can't hold on, I'll activate my Saint Blood power," Shang Shuyu said to Qin Chu.
Qin Chu nodded. Saint Blood was a unique ability of the Saint Blood Family. After activating the Saint Blood Body, overall strength would be enhanced.
"When Senior Sister activates her Saint Blood power, does it look a bit ugly?" Seeing that Qin Chu only nodded and didn't speak, Shang Shuyu asked.
Hearing Shang Shuyu's words, Qin Chu was stunned. "The focus of men and women is just different. Men focus on how much strength has increased, while you consider beauty and ugliness. Senior Sister doesn't look bad after activating her Saint Blood power; instead, she has a unique charm!"
"Really?" Shang Shuyu asked, somewhat disbelieving.
Qin Chu nodded seriously. "Really, your figure becomes much more slender."
Shang Shuyu looked at Qin Chu again. "At that time, did you notice that after the Saint Blood was activated, scales appeared on my wrists and fingers?"
"I saw it, so what? It's nothing. Why don't you activate your Saint Blood again, Senior Sister, and I'll hold your hand?" Qin Chu said with a smile.
Hearing Qin Chu's words, Shang Shuyu nodded reassuringly. "It's good that you don't mind. What does your Vermilion Bird Family's Saint Blood look like after activation?"
"I haven't truly activated it. If someone found out, the trouble would be huge. Senior Sister, you must keep it a secret for me," Qin Chu said to Shang Shuyu.
Shang Shuyu nodded. "Don't worry, I am someone you can trust!"
"Right now, yes. Later, when I go to your Azure Dragon Family to annul the engagement, I hope you won't mind!" Qin Chu said, looking at Shang Shuyu.
Hearing Qin Chu's words, Shang Shuyu was stunned. "Do you really have to annul the engagement?"
"Yes, I must annul the engagement, but before that, I'm going to kill that Shang Tang. Stealing my woman, he clearly doesn't put me in his eyes," Qin Chu said.
Looking at Qin Chu, Shang Shuyu felt deeply. After spending some time with Qin Chu, she didn't dislike him, but if Qin Chu wanted to annul the engagement, what could she do? She still didn't want to tell Qin Chu that she was the person in his engagement.
"Senior Sister, don't be unhappy. I'm not humiliating the Azure Dragon Family. After the decline of the Vermilion Bird Family, the engagement is just an empty promise. However, the existence of this engagement still affects your Azure Dragon Family's little princess. Since I don't plan to marry her, let's give her freedom!" Qin Chu sighed and said.
"So you're actually considering others?" Shang Shuyu said, looking at Qin Chu.
"Dealing with Shang Tang is selfish because he clearly knows that the Azure Dragon Family's little princess has an engagement with the Vermilion Bird Family, yet he still proposed marriage. This is an insult to the Vermilion Bird Family, an insult to me! As for the Azure Dragon Family's little princess whom I haven't met, I hope she finds a good home. After all, there was an engagement, a connection in life. I wish her well!" Qin Chu said.
"Knowing what to do and what not to do! Junior Brother, you're great. A man should be like this. But don't rush the annulment of the engagement. As far as I know, our Azure Dragon Family's princess has always been in seclusion and hasn't said she likes anyone, so the engagement's impact is not significant," Shang Shuyu said.
Qin Chu said nothing more and continued forward with Shang Shuyu.
After advancing for a while, Qin Chu once again saw the emerald glow erupting along with the Sword Intent energy.
With a punch, he deflected the sky-high Sword Intent energy, and Qin Chu grabbed the Spiritual Intent Grass in his hand.
"Senior Sister, this is Sword Intent Grass!" After looking at the Sword Intent Grass in his hand, Qin Chu handed it to Shang Shuyu.
"Junior Brother, you should keep it," Shang Shuyu's eyes were full of brilliance, but she still refused because she knew Qin Chu also needed it.
Qin Chu reached out and grabbed Shang Shuyu's hand, directly stuffing the Sword Intent Grass into her hand.
In this situation, Shang Shuyu couldn't say anything more. She thought it would be better to wait until the Sword Intent eruption period ended. If Qin Chu didn't get the Spiritual Intent Grass he needed, then she would exchange a common one with Qin Chu.
Qin Chu and Shang Shuyu continued to advance, with Qin Chu being much more careful as he didn't want to lose his life here due to carelessness.
Outside Sky Sword Mountain, people from various major forces were waiting, and new Cultivators also arrived and entered Sky Sword Mountain. The Sword Intent eruption period was an Opportunity for all Cultivators.
There were also undercurrents. Some people clearly knew that after the Sword Intent eruption period, there would be another round of competition.
Going into Sky Sword Mountain to find Spiritual Intent Grass was seeking an Opportunity, and outside Sky Sword Mountain, there would be another battle for Opportunity. It was still hard to say who would be the winner.
Some people had also made up their minds. For example, Elder Lu from Demon Castle felt that Qin Chu must be recruited. His previous assessment of Qin Chu was not accurate enough. If Qin Chu could become an official member of Demon Castle, then in a few years, Demon Castle would have another person who could stand on his own.
Lin Hanyue also felt some emotion. He knew that he could no longer recruit Qin Chu. After his subordinate Vice City Lord had a conflict with Qin Chu, he lost the Opportunity to recruit Qin Chu. What comforted him was that Qin Chu had a good personal relationship with him and was even friends with his son.
Su Mu had always stood alone. Lin Hanyue and others had greeted him and invited him, but Su Mu never moved from his spot and didn't join any team.
