Seeking the Tao in the Mortal World-Chapter 25: West Savage Kingdom
Chapter 25: West Savage Kingdom
“I don’t know what Ye Ling forgot. Maybe she forgot some of her instincts or maybe she forgot some kind of hint or back door imposed by Dong Huazi in beastkin transformation miasma. All of which are possible phenomena after enlightenment. Anyway, she has nothing in her mind, what important things can she forget? What are you worried about?”
Qin Yi was setting up the array while Liu Su was leaning against the door frame, giving instructions while solving his doubts.
It was just that its words sounded strange no matter how.
Qin Yi turned his head to look at it curiously, “You seem to have a problem with Ye Ling?”
“I have no problem with her.” Liu Su said firmly, “It’s just that she has been running here too often recently, disturbing the cultivating moment between you and I.”
“That’s what you call no problem…” Qin Yi said helplessly, “It’s also my intention that she came here, isn’t it to learn more about Dong Huazi?”
“Cheh.” Liu Su scorned, “Now, besides knowing that Dong Huazi is an old man in her stupid mind, and her cultivation has never reached the Piano Heart Stage, what other useful information does she provide?”
“This is very useful. At least I know Dong Huazi is not a woman.”
“…” Liu Su was astonished, “You actually thought that way?”
Qin Yi said honestly, “I really thought about it, if he was a big beauty, would I have to kill a woman to attain Tao?”
Liu Su wondered, “Killing a woman to attain Tao? Where did you hear this stuff?”
“What? It doesn’t exist?”
“It does exist.” Liu Su paused, and it suddenly sneered, “If you want to go this way, it’s not impossible.”
“Listen to your tone, why do I feel that if I go this way, I will be knocked to death by you first?”
Liu Su was very satisfied, “Smart, enough to be my disciple.”
Qin Yi nodded, “Ridiculous, enough to be my friend.” 𝐛𝐞𝐝𝗻𝐨𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝐜𝐨𝗺
“Qin Yi Qin Yi!” Li Qingjun’s voice came from outside, “Where are you?”
Before Qin Yi could answer, Li Qingjun rushed into the backyard.
“You’re not afraid that I’ll set up a trap again. Can you stop barging in?” Qin Yi said angrily, “Do you want to be hung up again?”
“It’s fine if there is a trap in the front yard. If there is a trap in the backyard, wouldn’t it be insane?”
“Ugh…” Qin Yi thought for a while, “It’s actually a good idea. No one would have thought of it… Maybe it can trick people.”
Li Qingjun was speechless to complain. Soon, her eyes were attracted by the mahogany sword in front of Qin Yi. The mahogany sword was inserted into the soil and filled with mud, just like planting a sword.
“What are you doing here? Plant a sword and harvest tens of thousands?”
“That’s right.” Qin Yi smiled, “On this day next year, come and get 10,000 swords.”
“Bah! Acting all mysterious.” Li Qingjun didn’t get to the bottom of it. Thinking of his reason for coming, he smiled, “Do you know that you’ve made a fortune?”
“Huh? I haven’t done anything since I came to Li Fire City.”
“Your toothpaste and toothbrush scented soap, I found someone to imitate it. Now the people of the entire Li Fire City are using them. Father also likes it very much.”
The princess’s business, few people in Li Fire City would dare to imitate it. The monopoly of this business was terrifying. Qin Yi could almost see a gold mountain piled up in front of him. It was no wonder that Li Qingjun’s mood was getting better and better these days. The haze of her eldest brother’s assassination was gradually fading.
Qin Yi smiled, “Oh, it’s good that your father likes it. As for the sale, there is no need to pay dividends. Treat it as the cost of finding those materials for me.”
As he spoke, he continued to turn his head and fiddle with the sword.
Li Qingjun just looked at his back with admiration in her eyes.
When she first met Qin Yi, she felt that Qin Yi was very calm and pretended to be indifferent at a young age. After getting to know him more, she realized that he was really indifferent. He hardly cared about money and the future. Every day, she only saw him making pills and training his physique. In the past 2 days, he even made some talismans. He didn’t leave the house at all.
If it were any other person who had a good relationship with the prince and princess, they probably wouldn’t have such an attitude.
In the oppressive and tense atmosphere of the capital, Li Qingjun could always find the feeling of “Tao” closest to her heart here.
So Li Qingjun also liked to run here. Apart from wanting to hear Journey to the West, it also somewhat satisfied her desire to seek immortals.
Qin Yi’s attitude toward her was also different. At least the previous claim that “I have something important to do today” wasn’t used on her.
Liu Su could tell that Qin Yi had an unusual affection for this reckless princess.
“Brother’s funeral is set for tomorrow. The State Preceptor will do a big ritual at that time. It is said that his soul can enter heaven.” Li Qingjun sighed, “Sometimes… I also hope that what Dong Huazi said is true.”
“It’s human nature.” Qin Yi finally finished setting up the sword and left the backyard, “Let’s go in and drink.”
Li Qingjun followed behind and said, “I feel like you are the real State Preceptor. When Dong Huazi is driven away, you can be the State Preceptor.”
Similar words had been said before, but the tone was completely different.
“Me? Not that kind of material.” Qin Yi smiled, “Does anyone recognize the State Preceptor who just stays and sleeps in the house every day?”
Li Qingjun said, “Whether people recognize it or not, you don’t need to do things.”
“Huh? Then what should I do?”
“Just… we just have to say that you have the ability.”
Qin Yi paused for a moment and sighed a little, “I’m not a real State Preceptor, you’re a kissass.”
Li Qingjun shrank her legs, “Why do you suddenly become inexplicably obscene when you speak?”
“This… this is not an obscene word.”
“Isn’t it obscene with the body part?”
“You thought you are the review editor…”
The two went back to the house while talking nonsense. Qin Yi snapped his fingers, and a wine gourd floated slowly toward him.
If one looked closely, he would see that there was a piece of talisman paper at the bottom of the gourd. It was actually just a very low-level floating function. It didn’t even need spiritual power to activate, just inner force is enough…
But this was simply too good to pretend to be immortal in front of mortals. Dong Huazi was very good at playing this. Qin Yi deliberately learned it after learning about it.
He fell in love with it as soon as he learned it. He discovered more and more that tao spell was not used for fighting in many cases, but it could replace artificial labor and provide countless conveniences.
It was simply a must-learn immortal spell for lazy people who home traveled…
Li Qingjun was not surprised when she saw the floating wine gourd. She grabbed the gourd and poured the wine, urging, “Journey to the West, hurry hurry.”
Qin Yi felt that if he really said that, Ye Ling would probably cry if she knew that, so he shifted the topic, “I haven’t seen your brother for 3 days, what is he doing?”
“Dealing with the accusations of the State Preceptor Faction in the court every day. They have to accuse him no matter how.” Li Qingjun said angrily, “What’s annoying is that father is really hesitant by their words.”
Qin Yi opened his eyes wide in surprise. Isn’t this too absurd? Is this emperor insane? You’re still hesitating when you have only one son left, who are you going to pass the throne to?
“However, there are still many courtiers who support my brother. He has been officially named the crown prince today.”
“Can you speak without stopping?”
“Is there a difference?” Li Qingjun whispered, “In the end… Father trusts the State Preceptor more than brother.”
Qin Yi was silent.
Suddenly, there were footsteps outside the courtyard. Someone hurried in and shouted through the door, “Princess…”
It was the voice of Li Qingjun’s own servants. Li Qingjun was very strange, “What’s the matter?”
“Just got the news that the prince of West Savage Kingdom, Mang Zhan, led a team to mourn the crown prince. He has just arrived outside the west city gate.”
Li Qingjun suddenly stood up with furious eyes, “They dare to come!”
Before Qin Yi could react, Li Qingjun got out of the door like a gust of wind, grabbed the spear from the servant, and rushed out of the mansion.
“Shit…” Qin Yi realized that this was going to be big. She isn’t going straight to kill the envoys of the West Savage Kingdom right? He was really speechless, so he could only pick up Liu Su and quickly chase after her.
How could I have thought that this brazen and brainless girl is beautiful and cute before? I’m really blind.
His speed was not as fast as Li Qingjun’s. When he finally rushed to the west gate, the first thing he saw was a silver light stream like a goshawk shot at an extremely burly and bearded man on a horse in forefront of the team.
Qin Yi could even see the bewildered expression of Li Qinglin riding beside him.
In the next second, thousands of arrows would be shot, and the ones who shot the arrows were still the South Li Kingdom army… They didn’t have time to tell who the assassin was, they only knew that they couldn’t have the envoys assassinated at the gate of their own city. Otherwise, it would be bad.
The only princess of the South Li Kingdom, at the gate of her own city, was shot by the arrows of her own army… Then the new crown prince of South Li Kingdom flew up helplessly. While stopping the soldiers, he launched a wave of silver light to block the arrows for his sister strenuously. Qin Yi really didn’t know how to describe this nonsensical scene. This reckless girl must have never thought about this situation right?
Mang Zhan, the prince of West Savage Kingdom, was also stunned by this scene for a moment. He reacted very quickly as he quickly grabbed the spear hanging by the horse and blocked Li Qingjun’s silver spear.
With a “clang“, the spears met, bursting out a loud noise. Li Qingjun who was shot by the arrows had weaker momentum. Mang Zhan was obviously not easy to be dealt with. Li Qingjun didn’t take any advantage, but she was even repelled.
She had nowhere to exert force in the air, so she could only borrow the force and flip backward. The spear pierced toward Li Qingjun’s waist in the air.
He was also an experienced warrior. One could dodge in other places while he was in the air, but his waist was the only spot to exert force, so it couldn’t dodge.
At this moment, Qin Yi’s mace slammed viciously on the spear.
