Live-in Son-in-law-Chapter 1061: Surrounded

The speed of the three was very fast, and they had already left Fengwang City far behind before dawn.

At this moment, they were waiting for Jin Die to join them beside a secluded forest path.

"Are you sure she can find this place?" Qin Yi looked at Yun Susu and asked. The area around them was covered in towering mountains and dense forests.

Yun Susu said softly, "Don't worry, I left secret signs along the way for Jin Die. She will find it."

"Is this the secret sign you're talking about?" Qin Yi held a five or six centimeter long twig between his fingers and then raised his hand to embed it into the body of the tree beside them, leaving half of it outside.

Yun Susu's pretty face changed slightly, but she eventually nodded.

"Young Master Qin's perceptiveness is indeed admirable."

Qin Yi said bluntly, "Of course, nothing can escape my eyes."

"Do you even know how to spell 'low-profile'?" Yun Mengyao seemed to be unable to stand Qin Yi showing off, and every time he did, she would jump in to bring him down a peg.

"Why should I be low-profile when I am naturally flamboyant? The words 'low-profile' don't exist in my dictionary."

"Then I'll get you an official dictionary someday. It definitely has those words."

Qin Yi: "..."

"Does chewing over someone else's words taste good?"

It was a line he had said before, and this woman even used it back on him.

"You're really disgusting," Yun Mengyao said with a look of disdain.

After speaking, she ignored Qin Yi and turned to Yun Susu, asking, "I'm really curious, why did you come to the Tianyue Empire to infiltrate and gather intelligence?"

"Do you really plan to listen?" Qin Yi asked.

Yun Mengyao replied, "Is there a problem?"

"Because many things are sparked by curiosity. For a dignified Third Princess to infiltrate an enemy country and undertake such painstaking efforts, you must be after something significant. Aren't you afraid of getting caught up in all this?"

Yun Mengyao pouted, "I'll just listen for fun. Besides, we're just sitting around. If I can help, I'll pitch in; if it gets too troublesome, we'll just leave."

"If you want to help, don't involve me."

Yun Mengyao glared at Qin Yi in indignation, then looked at Yun Susu.

Yun Susu smiled bitterly, "Actually, I have no grand ambition. Obtaining the Cloud Moon Plan is just to save my mother."

"Your mother?" Yun Mengyao asked with curiosity.

Yun Susu nodded slightly, "My mother used to be the Empress of the Yunyue Empire, but she was framed by traitors and thrown into the cold palace. The Cloud Moon Plan is the Tianyue Empire's strategic plan against my Yunyue Empire's military. If I can get it, I could save my mother. But unfortunately...

The Cloud Moon Plan is only known to the important members of the Tianyue Imperial Family and the Twelve Kings. Wind King's cultivation was the weakest, and I planned to target him. Now that the Wind King is dead, getting the Cloud Moon Plan is impossible."

"So that's how it is," Yun Mengyao sighed, comforting her, "The Princess's filial piety is commendable; I'm sure there will be another plan."

"It's all your fault," Yun Mengyao suddenly looked at Qin Yi and said.

Qin Yi: "..."

"What does it have to do with me?"

"If you hadn't killed the Wind King, losing the chance to get the Cloud Moon Plan, maybe the Princess would have succeeded."

Qin Yi: "..."

"Do you even know how to reason? You're the one who wanted to find the map, and you're also the one who wanted to go to the black market, so how can every problem be blamed on me?"

"Because being unreasonable is a special privilege of women." Yun Mengyao added, "Bingbing said that."

Qin Yi's mouth twitched, "Bingbing is right."

Yun Mengyao looked disdainful, "Wife's puppet."

"What's wrong with being a wife's puppet? Loving my wife is wrong? I hope once you get married, Jin Wuji hits you three times a day." 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

"Ha, he dares? Besides, Wuji isn't like you. Not only is he talented, but he's also gentle like jade, a true refined gentleman. Unlike you, unreliable and irresponsible, looking like a rogue."

Qin Yi almost choked, "Can you not put me down while praising your fiancé? Gentle like jade? Is your fiancé a jade carving? Moreover, from my experience, a gentleman may not truly be a gentleman, but could actually be someone like Yue Buqun."

"Who is Yue Buqun?" Yun Mengyao asked curiously.

Qin Yi smiled, "You don't even know Yue Buqun? He's a well-known expert, renowned as the Gentleman Sword Yue Buqun."

Yun Mengyao nodded, satisfied, "Finally, you said something sensible. Indeed, Wuji's character is definitely not inferior to this Yue Buqun."

Qin Yi almost burst out laughing.

"Has your fiancé also practiced the Evil Extinguishing Sword Manual?"

Yun Mengyao looked proud, "Wuji is familiar with hundreds of cultivation techniques. If the Evil Extinguishing Sword Manual is powerful, he surely has practiced it."

"Impressive!" Qin Yi gave a thumbs up, "However, I'm starting to worry about your marital life."

"What do you mean?" Yun Mengyao asked suspiciously.

Qin Yi laughed, "Just speaking off the cuff."

Yun Mengyao narrowed her eyes slightly, skeptical, "I always feel like you're indirectly criticizing Wuji."

"Be confident, just remove the word 'feel'."

Yun Mengyao's face turned dark.

Qin Yi looked mischievous, "Do you know the prerequisite for practicing the Evil Extinguishing Sword Manual?"

"Enough, nothing good comes out of your dog mouth." Yun Mengyao already knew Qin Yi would say something outrageous. Yet her curiosity got the better of her, "Go ahead, I want to know, what is the prerequisite for practicing the Evil Extinguishing Sword Manual?"

"You really want to know?" Qin Yi's expression was strange.

"Stop babbling, just say it."

Qin Yi smirked, "You asked for it. The prerequisite for practicing the Evil Extinguishing Sword Manual is: to master this skill, one must first castrate oneself."

Yun Susu's face turned slightly red; being part of the Royal Family, she of course knew what castrate meant.

Yun Mengyao was momentarily stunned, then understood, glaring fiercely at Qin Yi, "Can you speak like a normal person?"

"What the hell, you asked for it, it's not my fault."

"Do you believe I'll castrate you right now?"

Yun Susu looked uncomfortable; the conversation between these two was beyond the pale.

Qin Yi, however, said with a smile, "Miss Hero, you'd better save your strength for protection. Oh right, remember to protect the Third Princess."

Yun Mengyao frowned, "What do you mean?"

"Could you be a little smarter, read more books when you have nothing to do? It's exhausting explaining things to you every time, don't you know? In simple terms, we're surrounded."

Yun Mengyao and Yun Susu's pretty faces changed dramatically.

The two looked around cautiously, but aside from the rustling of leaves in the wind, there wasn't a soul in sight.

"Are you going to die if you don't scare people?" Yun Mengyao glared at Qin Yi.

"I keep saying you're a fool, but you never learn. In one minute, we'll be surrounded."

Yun Mengyao clearly didn't believe it.

However, the facts proved that Qin Yi was absolutely correct. One minute later, a large number of Qi Refiners rushed out from the dense forest on both sides, even the sky was blocked, with at least a hundred people.
