CHAPTER 588: CHAPTER 588 FRENZY

The Flower Demon was stunned because she couldn’t deny that Qin Yi made sense. Could it really be the Pavilion Master who harmed her?

"Qin Yi, stop trying to sow discord here. The Pavilion Master is very good to me; it’s impossible for him to harm me." The Flower Demon retorted in a frenzied manner.

Qin Yi sneered, his eyes filled with disdain: "Flower Demon, think carefully. I suppose secretly practicing forbidden divine powers in Baihua Pavilion is a serious crime, right? Yet, you secretly cultivated it, so why did your Pavilion Master not blame you?"

"It’s naturally because of my talent." The Flower Demon said confidently.

Qin Yi let out a cold laugh: "Baihua Pavilion is a powerful force. To control such a great power, I don’t believe your Pavilion Master is a kind-hearted person? Nor would he spare you merely because he cherishes talent."

"Of course, even if he’s broad-hearted and protective of his subordinates, unwilling to harshly punish a prodigy like you."

Qin Yi paused and continued, "But for such a great matter, there must be at least some punishment, right? Otherwise, how could he command respect? I guess after you secretly practiced the Residual Flower Technique, your Pavilion Master didn’t even utter a harsh word to you but instead took extra care of you, correct?"

The Flower Demon’s eyes flickered rapidly because Qin Yi was absolutely right: "How did you know?"

Qin Yi’s heart stirred; he realized he had guessed correctly, and the corners of his mouth lifted slightly: "Flower Demon, the Residual Flower Technique is quite powerful. Actually, it’s not hard to guess why such a powerful cultivation technique was easily acquired by you and secretly practiced. Haven’t you thought about what’s odd about this matter?"

The Flower Demon glared at Qin Yi: "What are you trying to say?"

Qin Yi said indifferently, "The situation is already clear. You were set up by your Pavilion Master. The Residual Flower Technique was designed for you to practice deliberately."

"Perhaps he covets the power of the Residual Flower Technique but fears the aftereffects it brings. So, you’re just a test subject for him, a guinea pig."

The Flower Demon stared blankly at Qin Yi, resentment spreading in her eyes: "You’re talking nonsense, it’s impossible. I’m a prodigy, there’s no way the Pavilion Master would treat me like this."

"The moment you developed aftereffects from secretly practicing the Residual Flower Technique, you buried your own talent, and you’re no longer a prodigy. Flower Demon, think about it. If you hadn’t practiced the Residual Flower Technique back then, you might have grown into a great power instead of this ghostly state."

"You’re ultimately just a pawn in your Pavilion Master’s hands, and you don’t even know it. It’s truly sad and pitiful..."

"Shut up, I don’t need your sympathy." The Flower Demon’s eyes were filled with anger, looking frenzied, roaring loudly, causing the surrounding air to twist.

"You’re wrong; I’m not sympathizing with you; I pity you. A once-prodigy reduced to such a state, not knowing if in your heart you were grateful to your Pavilion Master before I revealed the truth to you?"

"Shut up. It’s not like that, you’re spouting nonsense, it’s all your speculation... I won’t believe it, I absolutely won’t believe the Pavilion Master would harm me..."

The Flower Demon’s state was very off, her eyes scarlet, surrounded by a terrifying aura, her once grey hair had turned completely white, and her skin was aging rapidly.

However, everyone else’s faces changed drastically, for the aura on her was too terrifying now.

Qin Yi’s eyes narrowed slightly; although the Flower Demon said she didn’t believe it, she actually already did in her heart. She’s in a state of madness, using the Residual Flower Technique and starting to burn her essence blood, thus aging so quickly.

Actually, everything Qin Yi said just now was his conjecture, without a shred of solid evidence.

The reason the Flower Demon believed it was because over the years, tormented by the Residual Flower Technique, her mind had long been twisted. The Residual Flower Technique had become her inner demon, ready to surface at any moment.

"Qin Yi, I will tear you to pieces, shred you to bits..."

The Flower Demon screamed frenziedly, carrying immense power as she charged at Qin Yi. Though she hadn’t arrived yet, a palm strike from mid-air formed a handprint the size of a table, blasting towards Qin Yi.

Boom!

Qin Yi was blown apart by a palm strike, dissipating into the air.

The table-sized handprint made of petals continued forward, blasting onto a mountainside, and with a loud boom, the middle of the mountain was blown apart, the ground shook, and massive boulders rolled down.

Everyone was shocked; the Flower Demon was even stronger than before.

"Hahaha... Qin Yi, you ultimately died at my hand, you tiny ant..." The Flower Demon’s eyes were scarlet, laughing maniacally.

However, Nan ZaiXu and others knew that Qin Yi was not dead. The one blown apart just now was merely a shadow of Qin Yi.

"Flower Demon, Qin Yi is not dead, be careful..."

Nan ZaiXu warned the Flower Demon, but before he could finish speaking, his face changed abruptly as he saw the flower petal handprint smashing towards him with terrifying force.

"Flower Demon, what are you doing?"

Nan ZaiXu was scared out of his wits; the Flower Demon was terrifyingly powerful now, with an aura covering hundreds of meters around her, making it a forbidden zone. Anyone who dared approach within a hundred meters would be either dead or wounded. Especially with that fearsome palm strike.

"Qin Yi, prepare to die." The Flower Demon’s voice was strange, her face filled with madness.

Nan ZaiXu madly circulated his cultivation, raising his hand for a palm strike, immense force surged like a tide as he yelled wildly: "Flower Demon, see clearly, I’m not Qin Yi."

"Qin Yi, come to meet your end..."

The Flower Demon’s eyes were scarlet, ferocious and terrifying; she’d clearly lost her reason, driven mad.

Qin Yi’s words had utterly provoked her; the Pavilion Master she regarded as family had treated her like a pawn, like a guinea pig. This was too much for her to bear. She had been a prodigy, now reduced to such a ghostly state, all because of the sect she was loyal to.

As a result, she was driven to madness.

She hated Baihua Pavilion, and hated Qin Yi even more.

Boom!

The handprint made of petals easily shattered Nan ZaiXu’s force, windstorms sweeping through the sky, the Broken Flower Palm piercing the storm’s center, and in Nan ZaiXu’s terrified screams, it brutally landed on him without any flourish.

Nan ZaiXu let out a heartrending scream, bones breaking, tendons snapping, his internal organs displacing, mouth spewing blood, his whole body shot out like a cannonball, smashing into the mountainside.

With a boom, he blasted that section of the mountain, cracks spreading all around, rocks rolling down, while Nan ZaiXu was embedded in the mountainside, barely clinging to life.

The Flower Demon’s cultivation level was a tier higher than theirs, now in madness, burning her essence blood, making her battle power terrifyingly powerful.

Everyone’s faces changed dramatically, not expecting the Flower Demon to attack Nan ZaiXu. The scariest part was that Nan ZaiXu couldn’t withstand a single move from her; now, the Flower Demon was truly terrifying. Perhaps only Qin Yi could stand against her?

But... where was Qin Yi?

Everyone looked around, but couldn’t find any trace of Qin Yi.

"Flower Demon, come fight me to the death." Qin Yi’s voice suddenly rang out, full of provocation.

However, Jin Kumu was so frightened he wet himself, because Qin Yi’s voice came from behind him.
