Asked About The World Of Mortals

Chapter 46: When a Martial Artist Learns Spells

Seven or eight people followed closely behind and chased into the alley, then looked at each other.

The alley was straight, with every household closed and no side roads. The opposite street could be seen at a glance, but Qin Yi was nowhere to be found.

He had just rushed in, how could he have left the alley so quickly?

But the entire alley was in full view, with only some residents' brooms and dustpans leaning against the walls. There was no way to hide a person. Where could Qin Yi have hidden?

"Don't be fooled, he definitely hasn't left the alley. Spread out and search, he's probably hiding in one of the houses."

The crowd slowly dispersed and headed towards different houses.

Behind Qin Yi's mortal enemy, a wolf-toothed club slowly grew out from beside a few brooms.

"Bang!"

A deafening explosion rang out, causing everyone's eardrums to ring. When they turned to look, they saw that their companion's entire head had been smashed in. They had no idea how much force was used with that strike.

Then they saw another Qin Yi appear beside the brooms and swiftly run back towards the entrance of the alley.

"... " The group of people were dumbfounded and couldn't react.

Basic Dao technique, body concealment.

It wasn't invisibility or illusion, but rather a way to deceive others' vision by blending in like a protective color. Of course, it was a bit more advanced than a protective color, after all, it was a spell...

At first glance, there were just a few brooms, so no one paid any attention. Who would have known that Qin Yi was hiding right next to them?

When a Martial Artist learns spells, they truly become unstoppable...

Qin Yi sprinted out of the alley, feeling exhilarated and refreshed.

What this ambush was hoping for was revenge. Fortunately, his mortal enemy was near his hiding place, making it easy to knock him out. Even if he wasn't nearby, Qin Yi planned to suddenly appear and attack him.

To personally kill one of the two people who wanted him dead, the resentment that had always lingered around him suddenly dissipated a lot. It felt as if his body and mind had become lighter and more cheerful, extremely refreshing.

He suspected that if he were to complete this revenge, his body and mind would become harmonious, and the True Qi that had been stuck for a long time might break through and reach Innate. Perhaps even his newly cultivated magical powers would benefit from it.

Just as he was thinking this, he saw the tofu pudding seller shouting and running towards him in the midst of the crowd.

Qin Yi smiled, revealing a row of neat white teeth.

Instead of running away, he turned around and charged straight into the enemy's formation.

The large group of people who were chasing after him were instead shocked by his actions and stopped abruptly. Then they became overjoyed and organized themselves, forming a encirclement.

Qin Yi seemed oblivious and charged into the encirclement.

The net tightened.

Suddenly, everyone felt a dazzling light flash before their eyes, causing tears to flow and making it impossible to see anything.

Basic Dao technique, radiance.

It only lasted for a moment, and the light quickly dissipated. In their dazed state, they saw Qin Yi fiercely strike the disguised tofu pudding seller on the head, taking advantage of everyone's eyes not fully recovering, and broke free from the encirclement, laughing heartily as he left.

Two mortal enemies were swiftly beheaded, and the sense of satisfaction in that moment was something only he knew.

Liu Su had remained silent the entire time, without giving any instructions or guidance, as if observing Qin Yi's performance. It was only when Qin Yi's laughter gradually subsided that it calmly said, "No wonder... you like Li Qingjun."

To be able to cleverly use seemingly useless low-level spells in battle with his intelligence, that was expected of Qin Yi.

But the heroic aura of charging into the enemy's midst, not retreating but advancing and laughing at the enemy's leader, that was nothing like Qin Yi at all.

It turned out that Qin Yi, who had always been thought of as living a peaceful life like a salted fish, had a heroic spirit deep down, as if Liu Su had seen that silver light in the Taoist temple on a rainy night, fear in his heart but resolutely stabbing at the spider demon, advancing fearlessly.

Perhaps it was the hidden aggression in Qin Yi's bones that was slowly brought out after meeting Li Qingjun... So he admired Li Qingjun so much, thinking that he was just being a sycophant, but in fact, it was Qin Yi himself who wanted to be in another world of comfort and peace, slowly eroded and disappeared.

Then, in the oppressive and ambushed battles in the capital, when he saw the enemy, it finally completely aroused Qin Yi's wildness.

"Yes." Qin Yi didn't know that it had thought so much, he just smiled and replied, "I like Qingjun."

Liu Su chuckled softly, with a meaningful laughter.

Qin Yi took a few breaths and turned his head to look. The pursuers were already left behind. In fact, he had played with the pursuers until they were out of breath. How could they continue to chase him? They didn't chase for long before they started running slower and watched him leave.

Qin Yi finally relaxed a bit. In fact, he had exhausted his mana, and even his True Qi was a bit sluggish. At this moment, he was able to recover a little.

He took out a Qi-replenishing pill and stuffed it into his mouth, while adjusting his breath, he continued to run towards the princess's mansion. After crossing another street, the princess's mansion was already in front of him.

Qin Yi ran over and directly asked the guard, "Is the princess here?"

The guard smiled and said, "So it's Young Master Qin. The princess is inside, please come in."

"Thank you." Qin Yi was about to step up the stairs when he suddenly paused, "Wait, how do you know I'm Qin Yi?"

The guard smiled and said, "Young Master Qin's affair with the princess has caused a stir at the state banquet. How could we not know? We haven't seen you, but we've heard descriptions of your appearance. Your distinctive wolf tooth club is easy to recognize."

"Oh." Qin Yi tightened his grip on the wolf tooth club and asked again, "I was causing a commotion with someone outside a street, why didn't you react at all?"

The guard was taken aback, "The commotion outside has nothing to do with the princess's mansion. We didn't know it was an attack on Young Master Qin..."

Before he finished speaking, Qin Yi swung his club, "I only said commotion, and you knew it was an attack!"

Qin Yi didn't want to misunderstand the good people, so this swing was actually meant to intimidate. But the fake act couldn't be sustained, and a spear was thrust out from inside the gate, hitting the head of the club, saving him.

A sigh came from inside the gate, "Brother Qin is quick-witted, quite different from the image of carrying a wolf tooth club."

The gate opened wide, and Mang Zhan stood in the courtyard with his subordinates. The two fake guards also stepped back and stood on Mang Zhan's left and right, seemingly his trusted men.

Qin Yi stepped back down the stone steps and squinted, "Where is Qingjun?"

Mang Zhan pretended to be profound, "What does Brother Qin think?"

Qin Yi looked up at the buildings in the mansion, suddenly turned around and walked away, muttering to himself, "If it were me, if I succeeded, I would have returned to my own place to enjoy myself. If I wanted to capture me, I would have let my subordinates take care of it. Why bother personally? Qingjun must still be in the Crown Prince's mansion."

He walked away quickly, and by the time he finished speaking, he was almost half a street away.

Mang Zhan was so angry that he chased after him, shouting, "Two Venerables, if you don't make a move now, when will you?"

A demonic wind suddenly rose.

A black owl flew in from the left, with a human-like face. At the same time, the stone slabs on the street arched up, revealing a huge centipede.

The momentum was extremely terrifying.

But Qin Yi laughed and lifted the wolf tooth club, charging towards the centipede's head with a jump and a slash, "Under the Seven Star Formation, even Ye Ling is left with only a breath. It's lucky that you two little monsters without Body Transformation are not dead. How dare you come out and pretend with me!"

With a loud bang, the poor centipede hadn't fully revealed its entire body before it was struck and died on the spot. The owl in the air made an abrupt stop and flew away flapping its wings, a feather falling down in panic.

Mang Zhan was so angry that he chased after him, while Qin Yi had already disappeared without a trace.

He pretended to speak lightly and contemptuously, but in fact, he was very serious.

Because although Donghua Zi didn't have many troops at hand, there must be many cultivators with certain cultivation levels. On the other hand, among the monsters, they shouldn't all be weaklings who had eaten the Ming He Formation and were barely scaring people in the city. There should be more powerful Great Monsters hiding somewhere. But along the way, he only saw ordinary Martial Artists.

Of course, it was because he wasn't the core of this situation. Although the other side wanted to kill him, in the end, if he ran away, it wouldn't have much impact on the overall situation. The other side naturally knew the importance and wouldn't arrange the main force against him. And their attempt to capture Li Qingjun at the princess's mansion was just a small effort, and they missed... So it can be imagined the pressure the Crown Prince's mansion is facing right now.

But this is strange...

Coming to the princess's mansion can still be considered an ambush, which makes sense. But would they openly besiege the Crown Prince's mansion to kill Li Qinglin? The king is still alive, and even if Donghua Zi is highly trusted, this is unlikely to happen. Did he misunderstand something? Did he not sort out his logic?
