Chapter 121 Demon or Devil? {Subscribe}
"Hahahaha!"

Ciri couldn't help laughing at Li Qing's expression and asked, "In other words, if we want humans to stop fighting among themselves, we must first make them extinct, right?"

Li Qing didn't expect that Xili would come up with an experience so quickly, but after thinking about it, he nodded: "Although it seems a little strange, based on my experience, it seems to be true."

"And it's not just humans. Aren't those Ain and El elves also very united?"

Ciri was stunned by what Li Qing said, but when she thought about some of the experiences she had in the world where Ain and El lived, it seemed that this was indeed the problem.

Suddenly, some cars fell silent, their eyes were blank, and no one knew what they were thinking. They muttered to themselves:
"So, all life will unite when faced with an irresistible danger?"

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Li Qing noticed that his girlfriend's thoughts seemed to be going astray, so he coughed twice to interrupt her thoughts.

Don't let Ciri suddenly realize something after I said a few nonsense and become some kind of devil who actively destroys the world. That would be troublesome.

"Well, actually, there are not only these types of people who are united, there are many who fight among themselves the more difficult or critical the situation is."

"Each world is full of strange things. You can't use your past experience to look at the next one."

Ciri raised her head and rolled her eyes at Li Qing: "Why, are you saying this because you're afraid that I'm going to destroy the world?"

"Of course not!" Li Qing quickly denied.

Ciri looked at Li Qing with a slightly dazed look in her eyes, and unknowingly moved closer.

Then stop at the moment of kissing.

"What? Excuse me?"

Li Qing raised his eyebrows and asked.

Ciri suddenly said, "How about we have a fight?"

"Don't use your ability, let's have a competition."

"Forget it, I don't want to compete with you." Li Qing quickly shook his head and refused.

Although Ciri was not a weak woman, she was as fragile as glass compared to him.

It would be unnecessary if he were the one who hurt the other person.

But Xili could clearly see that Li Qing looked down on her. Although she knew in her heart that she was no match for Li Qing, she was still very unhappy to be looked down upon.

"You haven't competed yet, how do you know?"

Before he could finish his words, Li Qing and Ciri suddenly stopped what they were doing and turned to look at the place where they had just seen Vesemir.

Li Qing sensed some strange aura, while Ciri sensed the fluctuation of space.

"Is someone back?"

"It seems to be Yennefer."

The two voices sounded at the same time. After looking at each other, they quickly stood up and started to return the same way, as if the topic just now had not been discussed.

It was obviously much easier to walk along the path we just walked, and we soon arrived at the open space again.

Looking up, I saw two familiar figures standing in the open space and arguing.

However, after seeing these two figures, Ciri was obviously relieved both on her face and in her heart. She then strode over and interrupted their quarrel loudly:
"Yennefer, Geralt!!"

Hearing Ciri's voice, the two people who were arguing stiffened almost at the same time, then turned around together and looked at Ciri in disbelief.

"Ciri, why are you here?"

But this surprise only lasted for a moment, because Ciri had already run to Yennefer and suddenly dived into her arms.

"Ciri."

Yennefer hugged Ciri tightly, her eyes even a little moist.

However, the sorceress quickly controlled her emotions, separated her hug from Ciri, turned her head and looked at Geralt beside her, with a dangerous look in her eyes:

"Didn't you say Ciri was on some Misty Island?"

Geralt was also a little confused, because ever since he learned about the Elf Sage and the Misty Island from Lee Sin, he and Yennefer immediately went to find the Bloody Baron to look for the Elf Sage.

After finding the Elf Sage who had turned into Uma, they were trying to find a way to lift the Elf Sage's curse, but the Elf Sage disappeared in front of them.

They spent some time searching but found no trace of him, no clues, and no signs of magic. He disappeared right in front of the two of them without any clues.

That's why he and Yennefer had no choice but to return to Kaer Morhen and find other ways to go to the Misty Island.

Who would have thought that Ciri, whom they had been looking for, had returned to Kaer Morhen without them knowing when. If they had known earlier, they would have returned earlier.

"Hah, Geralt, long time no see!"

Ciri was unaware of Geralt's annoyance. After coming out of Yennefer's embrace, she immediately came to Geralt and gave him another tight hug.

Geralt's gloomy face finally softened the moment he hugged Ciri.

"Is Vesemir's message actually sent so quickly?"

"And your efficiency is too fast. You came back as soon as you got the news."

But at this moment of peaceful and happy reunion of the family, a voice suddenly interrupted them, and Geralt and Yennefer, who had been focusing only on Ciri, discovered that there seemed to be an uninvited guest at the scene.

Yennefer turned around and looked at the person she had just separated from. Magical power surged in one hand and there was danger in her eyes:

"Li Qing?"

"If I remember correctly, you seemed to have left after completing the transaction with me."

"Why are you here now?"

Geralt also spotted Li Qing.

Although they had not spent much time together, he was also impressed by this young man who claimed to be a visitor from another world.

He also let go of Ciri, drew out his steel sword and looked at Li Qing with a little caution.

"Yes, why are you here?"

"It's been a long time since we last met, Geralt and Yennefer, but you don't have to welcome me like this."

Li Qing stretched out his hands in surrender, feeling helpless. He knew there was probably some misunderstanding between the two, so he quickly said to Xili: "Xili, explain it to me quickly!"

Ciri suddenly showed a strange smile: "Geralt, Yennefer."

"This man bullied me. Please help me teach him a lesson!"

Geralt's eyes suddenly became dangerous, and Yennefer stretched out her hand without hesitation. She quickly mobilized her magic power and threw a fireball towards Li Qing's position.

"Fuck, you have no moral principles, Xili!"

Li Qing was speechless, but he also knew that Ciri was taking revenge on him for rejecting her request to compete with him.

With a wave of his hand, a gust of wind appeared out of nowhere and instantly extinguished Yennefer's fireball.

The powerful wind pressure instantly pressed down on Geralt and Yennefer who were about to rush over. The horrible pressure immediately made the two unable to move. They half-knelt on the ground, only able to barely maintain their body shape.

"Stop it, Ciri."

Sighing, Li Qing signaled Xili to quickly explain to the two people.

Although he didn't care much about what Geralt and Yennefer thought of him, they were his father-in-law and mother-in-law after all, and it would not be good if things got too ugly.

Ciri didn't expect that Li Qing could subdue the two so easily. She was still a little unconvinced, but she could only pout and give in:
"Okay, let them go."

Li Qing shook his head slightly and snapped his fingers, and the huge pressure on Geralt and Yennefer immediately dissipated.

The two men stood up and their eyes fell on Ciri who had already walked together with Li Qing. After looking at each other, they both revealed murderous looks in their eyes.

With their rich life experiences, they can certainly see that the relationship between Li Qing and Xili is not ordinary.

But they were both smart people. They thought about how Li Qing was telling them how to find Ciri a few days ago, but a few days later he brought Ciri back to Kaer Morhen and they became a couple.

He would never believe that Li Qing didn't plan it from the beginning, even if he was beaten to death.

Geralt's face was so gloomy that it seemed like water was about to drip out of it. He asked in a cold voice:

"So, Li Qing, everything you said before was a lie?"

Yennefer condensed a spell again and stared at Li Qing.

The two of them really care about Ciri, and are willing to give up many things for Ciri, even their lives.

They don't really want to worry about Ciri's love interest, but if Ciri's lover is someone like Li Qing, they will definitely not agree.

Li Qing knew that the two people had misunderstood, so he quickly pulled Ciri over and pushed her over:
"Please explain it to me quickly. I can't explain it clearly myself."

Ciri rolled her eyes at Li Qing, walked to Geralt and Yennefer, and began to tell them about her previous experience.

After a long time, the two of them roughly understood what had happened and realized that they had misunderstood Li Qing.

But even so, Geralt did not have a good face towards Li Qing who suddenly appeared and kidnapped his daughter.

With a cold snort, after being reminded by Ciri, he walked outside to find Vesemir.

Yennefer didn't have such a big prejudice against Li Qing. After listening to Ciri's story and knowing that it was a misunderstanding, she returned to her previous cold and aloof demeanor.

Li Qing felt a headache when he saw the attitudes of these two people.

Why do I still have to endure the pain of meeting my father-in-law and mother-in-law after traveling through time?

"Yennefer, when we came back, we had already dealt with the Wild Hunt."

"Although we were repelled, it won't be long before they come again, so could you and Geralt go find some help?"

"According to my estimation, when the Wild Hunt comes next time, it might be the final battle."

Ciri walked over to Yennefer, sat next to her, and said in a deep voice.

Yennefer was a little frightened and quickly asked about the encounter with the Wild Hunt.

While the two of them were having a heated conversation, Li Qing was naturally left aside.

He listened boredly for a while, then stood up and started wandering around the castle.

Then a voice suddenly appeared behind Li Qing:
"Long time no see, Lord Li Qing."

"?"

Li Qing was slightly startled and quickly turned around to look.

You know, his perception attribute is now ridiculously high, but he still didn't notice when someone appeared behind him.

So there is no need to say much about the level of the person who was able to lurk here.

But when he looked back and saw who was coming, Li Qing was not so panicked. "Gaunt O'Dimm?"

"I didn't expect it to be you?"

That’s right, the person who suddenly appeared and called out was the Mirror Master who had previously made a deal with Li Qing - in fact, his real identity was unknown.

It could be a demon, a devil, or something else similar.

Anyway, he's a very troublesome guy.

"After we parted last time, I was actually looking for your whereabouts, but I couldn't find you. I thought you were lying to me about the agreement you made with me."

O'Dimm touched his round head with one hand and had a kind smile on his face, but this smile looked weird no matter how you looked at it.

"Now it seems that I thought too badly of you, Lord Li Qing, please forgive my apology."

"Then I forgive you."

"So what do you want to see me about?"

Li Qing nodded naturally, which surprised O'Dimm, who was just being polite. He smiled bitterly and said:

"It seems that our agreement has not been kept in mind by Lord Li Qing."

"No, I remember." Li Qing shook his hand and said, "But you came at a wrong time. You should know that I will fight against the Wild Hunt next, right?"

O'Dimm's eyes flickered faintly, but his face showed a sad expression: "Oh, I really don't know about this."

"It seems that I came at the wrong time."

"In that case, it seems that my visit is indeed presumptuous."

"I'm really sorry, but my matter is actually a little urgent, so Lord Li Qing, can you give me an approximate time, at least so that I can have some hope?"

"After all, your whereabouts are indeed unpredictable. I am just lucky to have met you here again."

"Really? I thought you came here specially to see me."

Li Qing glanced at him.

This guy is still pretending to be with me. Didn’t he just find out that he couldn’t be contacted after he left this world?

Although there was a contract at the time of the transaction, it was obvious that due to the system's ability, O'Dimm's contract was unable to overcome the system's obstruction and was intercepted.

Now that I have returned to this world, he has discovered me again and immediately came over to check me out.

"Don't worry, I'm not going to default on my debt."

Li Qing knew that what this guy wanted him to do was nothing more than the plot of the DLC Heart of Stone.

I have forgotten his specific name, Li Qing, but it is a bloody story about a greedy man who made a deal with the devil and lost everything in the end.

It's just that there are some innocent people in this story.

"If that's the case, then I'm relieved."

Odimm heaved a sigh of relief when he heard Li Qing's words.

He is indeed a different and extraordinary being.

Call him a devil or a demon, he is actually the dark side of the world.

Just like his title Mirror Master, he can clearly see any darkness hidden deep in human nature and turn this darkness into strength for his own use.

But this power was defeated for the first time by Li Qing.

Because the contract signed with Li Qing was actually a mark he left on his body. It could be said to be his power, or a part of him, but it was barely detectable.

But when Li Qing suddenly disappeared from this world, O'Dimm was shocked to find that that part of himself had disappeared.

You have to know the essence of his life, which means that he can only be weakened and driven away, but cannot be eliminated.

So he breathed a sigh of relief when he sensed Li Qing's appearance again this time.

Then he hurried over and took back his part, but his opinion of Li Qing also changed drastically.

Maybe this human being is still very weak now, but there is no doubt that there is an existence behind him that is incredibly powerful beyond imagination.

So even the arrogant Mirror Master was willing to give this human some due respect at this moment.

Even if Li Qing returned, O'Dimm was ready to let it go.

Although this was the first time I suffered a loss in my long life, what I paid for was just a small toy, and if it’s gone, it’s gone.

As for the person who completes the goal, isn't there another original target, Geralt? At worst, we can just let him do it.

Odim thought of this and smiled again:
"Of course I believe in your credibility. As I said, I just happened to be nearby and happened to run into you again."

Li Qing looked at this guy strangely. Why was his attitude different from last time?

Could it be that he discovered that he had become stronger, so he started to bully the weak and fear the strong?

O'Dimm didn't know what Li Qing was thinking of him, but he could tell from the look in his eyes that he wasn't thinking anything good.

He smiled gently, bowed and saluted:
"But since you have said so, I will not bother you any more, lest you think I am urging you."

"I look forward to our next meeting, so I'm saying goodbye for now."

Then the guy straightened up, smiled and nodded at Li Qing, put on his hood, turned around and was about to leave.

Li Qing called out to him, "Wait a minute, Odimm."

"Hmm? Is there anything else, Lord Li Qing?"

O'Dimm turned around and looked at Li Qing.

"Let me ask you something. I want to make another deal with you. Do you still have the replica of the Dragon's Wrath Bow that you gave me last time?"

"It is indeed very useful. I will exchange it with you for something else."

O'Dimm raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect Li Qing to come up with this idea.

But of course he didn't have a second copy of the Dragon's Wrath Bow.

To be honest, the original Dragon's Wrath Bow was just an elven magic weapon with some special effects against dragon creatures.

The sword he traded to Li Qing was a temporary replica made with his own power.

That's why it has extraordinary and terrifying power.

You know, although the power contained is not as strong as if he did it himself, it is enough to deal with 99.999% of the opponents in this world.

But if it were before, he would of course agree to this request immediately and add some chips.

But Odim doesn't have this idea for the time being. Even if he does, he has to find out the background of this person first.

"I only have one replica of this. I'm sorry, Lord Li Qing."

Li Qing was not too disappointed. He was just asking casually. If there was an answer, that would be great. If not, forget it.

"Okay then, bye!"

"goodbye!"

Seeing that Li Qing was fine, O'Dimm nodded, put on his hood, turned around and walked to the corner, and disappeared the next moment.

Li Qing looked at the direction he left and frowned.

After a while, he shook his head helplessly: "This guy is really being targeted."

"But I was originally planning to travel around this world, so I'll wait until I'm done with the Wild Hunt."

Sighing, Li Qing lost the mood to continue shopping after being messed around by O'Dimm. He turned around and prepared to go back to find Ciri to see if she had finished talking to Yennefer.

I returned the same way and happened to see Avallac'h's room.

Li Qing then remembered that this guy seemed to say that he wanted to study something, and after arriving here, he hid in the room and didn't come out.

Thinking of this, Li Qing walked over and knocked on the door twice.

Avallac'h's voice was heard immediately:

"I'm inside, please come in."

Li Qing had no intention of being polite and simply pushed the door open and walked in.

Looking inside the room, it was a not very big room with only a bed and a table, and a rusty oil lamp on the table.

Avallac'h was sitting at the table reading a book.

Li Qing had good eyesight and noticed some things written in the book.

Unfortunately, Li Qing was illiterate and didn't know what was written on it.

"Avallac'h, I want to ask you something. You should have time, right?" Li Qing didn't hesitate to walk in and sit on the bed, then asked Avallac'h who was standing in front of the table.

Ever since Avallac'h witnessed how Lee Sin controlled the storm, he also saw how he crushed the Wild Hunt army led by his student Caranthir.

So now he has great respect for Li Qing.

It's not just because the other party is a strong man, but also because Avallac'h also has some ideas of his own. If he can get along well with Li Qing, he may be able to get help from this strong man.

"No problem, just ask me anything I know."

"Okay, you have lived for hundreds of years, so have you ever heard of the man called 'Mirror Master - Gaunt O'Dimm'?" Li Qing asked.

"Gaunt O'Dimm?"

Avallac'h's eyes suddenly narrowed: "Sir Li Qing, have you met this guy?"

When Li Qing saw Avallac'h's expression, he immediately knew that he definitely knew it, and maybe he even had some understanding of it.

"Yes, I have a deal with him."

"Although I shouldn't say too much, Lord Li Qing." Avallac'h took a deep breath and said with a serious look in his eyes:
"But you'd better keep your distance from him."

"I do know some information about this Odimu."

"And from what I know, the reason why the Ain Sid clan declined so quickly and was replaced by humans seems to be due to the presence of O'Dimm."

"He seems to always appear in some corner of history. Although he seems insignificant, he always represents special significance."

"He could smell the omens of war and betrayal as if they were his food."

O'Dim
