Xiandao Linglong

Chapter 113 All kinds of things

Ye Qi left the general's mansion with a sad look on his face. He walked alone on the street with a serious expression. As night fell, he unknowingly found that there were more people on the street.

"Big brother!" Ye Qi saw a man in front of him with a long sword on his back, wearing a linen robe and his hands tucked into his sleeves, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.

"What can I do for you, sir?"

The man looked at Ye Qi with confusion, and a hint of vigilance was clearly visible in his eyes. Just as the two people said when they entered Blackwater City, in Blackwater City, the human heart is the sharpest sword.

"I'd like to ask, why is it that in Blackwater City, there's not a single person to be seen during the day, but at night, people can be seen walking out of the streets one after another?"

"Little brother! Judging from your appearance, you must have just entered Blackwater City, right? It's a good thing that you met me, otherwise there would be no chance to talk here!" The man glanced at Ye Qi, who looked a little puzzled, chuckled and left.

Looking at the man's inexplicable back as he left, Ye Qi muttered to himself in confusion: "What a strange guy!"

"Anyone who can come here is strange in itself, especially during the day. If you meet someone, no matter whether you know him or not, kill him first!" The man walked slowly and reminded without turning his head.

"Aren't you afraid of being met by me during the day?" Ye Qi couldn't help but teasing when he saw that the man spoke strangely.

"You're lucky to meet me at night, but if you meet me during the day, you'll just be unlucky!" An extremely confident and disdainful voice came from the figure that had already disappeared at the corner of the street.

"It seems that this Blackwater City is an interesting place. It would be a shame if Shu'er didn't come and have a look!"

Ye Qi smiled and stretched. The night, which should be quiet, is actually the time when people can let down their guard. Then what did he mean by saying that if he met someone during the day, he would kill him first regardless of whether he knew him or not?

With a head full of doubts, Ye Qi also walked towards the center of Black Water City. After all, as the red-haired senior said, the person who stole the demon pill did not leave the Yushan area and might still be staying in Black Water City.

While he was thinking, he had already walked into the center of Blackwater City. Unlike the edge, there were no mansions or luxury houses here, only the bustling city with crowds of people.

After all, compared to other towns at the foot of Rain Mountain, Blackwater City has already screened out many people just by daring to enter here.

Those who can come here are either rich or noble. Those vendors may have backgrounds, or they may be powerful, or they may just be young people who value money more than their lives. In short, they are making money on the edge of death!

Just as Ye Qi passed by the storyteller, he suddenly heard the storyteller clapping his wake-up stick and angrily saying, "Last time we talked about the battle between Flower Fairy Hua Liuli and Cotton Hall. That battle was so shocking that it shook the heavens and the earth. It was also the second time that the Flower Fairy and the Bamboo Fairy, two of the Three Fairies of Yiyang, clashed with each other. What a pity! The Bamboo Fairy was ambushed and killed in that fierce battle. The most pitiful thing was her beautiful daughter. Before her mother's body was even cold, she was forced by the pressure of the Danhuang Sect to be taken as a concubine by the young master of the Danhuang Sect on the spot. Rumor has it that the master of the Cotton Hall once personally broke into the Danhuang Sect and fought his way to the main hall, but just as he was about to rescue his daughter, a masked young man suddenly appeared and subdued him with a single move. Some say that the masked young man's name was Ye Qi, and that he had fallen in love with the eldest lady of the Cotton Hall in the ruins. Poor girl, she didn't know until the very end that her happy life would be ruined by a playboy!"

"Where is Ye Qi now? Such a shameless scum is simply an insult to the reputation of us cultivators!"

"That's right, such scum must be killed by everyone!"

In the stands, the crowd was furious, especially the girls from other noble families. They seemed to empathize with the situation and stood up for the sister they had never met. They were determined to kill the scum who had harmed the good girls.

Seeing this, Ye Qi was so scared that he pulled his robe, trying hard to cover his face, turned around and was about to leave.

But just as he turned around, he heard the storyteller suddenly slap the wake-up stick in his hand and said, "The boy named Ye Qi is in Yushan right now, but whether he is in Blackwater City or not is unknown!"

"How dare a beast like him, worse than an animal, come to participate in the Qiankun Academy's admissions test? If I were to meet him, I would cut him into pieces!"

Listening to the words of the people behind him, all of them were filled with anger towards him, Ye Qi was so scared that he didn't even dare to look back. However, he was indeed confused. Wu Mian was a strong-willed girl. How could she devote herself to Ji Cheng when Senior Zhu Ling's body was still warm?

But if it was really as the storyteller said, then the woman who was lying on Ji Cheng's bed that day, pulling the bed curtain to cover her face shyly, could it be...

"Ye Qi? I didn't expect you to be here!"

Just as Ye Qi was carefully escaping from this place with his head down, suddenly a silver bell-like laughter sounded from in front of him. Ye Qi, who was lowering his head, stopped and his eyes met with the girl who slightly raised her head.

"Ning Wanqing?"

"Long time no see! If you hadn't lowered your head, I really wouldn't be able to see your face clearly!"

Ning Wanqing lifted Ye Qi's chin with the hilt of the sword in her hand, her face full of smiles, as if she had a handle that could threaten him to work like a slave for her.

"Ms. Ning! I'm not as bad as the rumors say! That's all fake!" Ye Qi explained with a wry smile.

"Of course I believe you. After all, you have a woman as beautiful as Sister Bai Cai by your side. Even the flower fairy would not be in your eyes, right?" Ning Wanqing retracted the hilt of the sword that was against Ye Qi's chin, hugged the sword across her chest, turned her back to him, and said sourly.

"Miss Ning really understands me. When you meet Shu'er later, please help me explain everything!" Ye Qi shamelessly came over, patted her shoulders, and whispered.

"Something's wrong! Ye Qi, you've changed! Don't you say you never get close to women? As the saying goes, the innocent are innocent. If you have nothing to hide, why are you so nervous? Something must be wrong when things are out of the ordinary. Could it be that you really..."

Seeing that Ning Wanqing's voice was getting louder and louder, Ye Qi was afraid that people around them would notice him, so he hurried forward and covered Ning Wanqing's back with his hand.

Ning Wanqing's mouth was suddenly covered by someone, and she subconsciously tried to break free and scream. Ye Qi also locked her tightly with his other arm.

"Don't scream! I'll let you go!"

Seeing Ning Wanqing's excited expression calm down, Ye Qi slowly released the hand that was restraining her.

But just when he was about to take a half step back to create some distance, Ning Wanqing in front of him suddenly turned around and slapped him in the face as smooth as a loach!

"Snapped!"

"You...shameless!"
