Chapter Forty-Nine: The Dragon Has a Covenant
It's been half a month since he last improved his strength, and Lin Qian's strength has always been stuck at the pinnacle of fourth-level magic, no matter how he cultivates, he hasn't seen the slightest progress, it's time to "improve" again.
Lin Qian cautiously came to a secret room downstairs, where two middle-aged magicians sat cross-legged, and they were shocked when they saw Lin Qian, and then fell into a panic.
"It was you last time, right? It's your turn this time. Lin Qian slowly stretched out his hand, and suddenly turned to another person and said, "You help me close his mouth." β
Although it was a polite conversation, the two magicians were still covered in cold sweat, but they had to grovel in obedience. Soon Lin Qian fell into the other party's thought space, constantly searching for the mark of magic.
After some exploration, although there was no substantive breakthrough, it also pointed out the direction for the subsequent practice. Looking at the magician who had fainted to the ground, Lin Qian shook his head and prepared to walk away.
"Do you humans like enslaving others so much?" a voice suddenly sounded in Lin Qian's ears, followed by a sound of palm wind.
Another magician fainted and fell to the ground, and next to him stood a large man dressed in black.
"Raymond?" Lin Qian was startled at first, and then sighed helplessly, "Can you stop appearing like this suddenly!"
"I'm sorry. Raymond smiled and didn't mean to apologize at all.
"Tell me, what's wrong with what I asked you to do?" Lin Qian opened the door and walked with him to the top floor.
"Lin, you have to remember that this is not what you asked me to do, it is what I am willing to do for you. Raymond said with some seriousness.
"What's the difference?" Lin Qian knew that he must have done a good job, otherwise he wouldn't have come back so early.
Raymond pouted and said, "I'm not your subordinate. I just owe you a personal favor and want to pay it off sooner. β
"Then when do you think you will be able to pay it off?" Lin Qian saved his clansmen last time, and this old dragon turned out to be dead.
"I'll probably pay it off when you're dead," Raymond said solemnly, "Decades is just a few night's sleeps for us dragons, and I've got the right to sleep a few times less, and wait for you to live to death." β
"You're really good at settling accounts!" Lin Qian pushed open the door of the office and sat down on the main seat, he just wanted to rest now and digest the "knowledge acquisition" just now.
Raymond looked at the office, it was simply furnished, two desks, a few chairs, a few coffee tables, two small doors, one on the left and one on the right, and nothing else.
"Although I have come to see you a few times, I have never entered your office, and you are still a little different from other high-ranking Terrans. β
"That's called aristocrats, and it's not superior, it's just rich and powerful. Lin Qian couldn't help but remind.
Raymond smiled and didn't refute, he didn't notice Lin Qian's impatience at all, and asked casually, "Who is this table?"
"Xiao Yi's. Lin Qian had already closed his eyes, and he was about to give the order to expel the guests.
"Who is Xiao Yi?" Raymond seemed to be very curious about everything, and did not let go of anything he did not understand.
"Xiao Yi is a person's name, a woman, to be exact, a maid arranged by Princess Elena to take care of my life. Do you still want to ask who Elena is, she is the princess of the empire. The princess is the king's daughter, and the king is the ruler of the empire, is there anything else you don't understand?" Lin Qian said quickly, his tone extremely impatient.
"It's basically understood, it's just ...... Can't you, a normal human, take care of your own life and need someone else to help?" Raymond grabbed at any place.
Lin Qian was a little speechless, but finally held back his emotions and explained to him: "This is called enjoyment, and it is the life that those nobles you see like. Besides, I now doubt that the IQ of the six magicians under my command can be deceived by you all the way!"
Raymond didn't care about the sarcasm in Lin Qian's words, and said in the opposite direction: "You are the same, you were deceived by the man named Wales. β
Lin Qian also sighed when he thought of this: "Yes, I should have thought that Wales was behind the scenes, but I didn't expect him to hide it from his son." He must have known that I was suspicious of Boris, so he planned the assassination himself. β
"When are you going to settle accounts with him, do you want me to teach him a lesson?" asked Raymond.
"You better don't make trouble," Lin Qian hurriedly stopped him, "You have such a simple mind or go back to the Dragon Clan, I'm afraid that you will be infected by the insidiousness of our human race." β
"Go back and have a sinister human at home. It is said that he is a friend of the patriarch, but I don't know why the patriarch has such a friend. Raymond seemed to be talking to himself, but he spoke loudly.
"Oh, you dragons also have humans, do you know who they are?" Lin Qian became interested, and suddenly became tired.
Raymond shook his head: "I don't know, but I don't look like a good person, and it is said that I came to take refuge." He came with a very bad injury, almost breathing. β
"And what??
"Man, according to your human age, you should be a very old person, very ugly, anyway, I don't think you humans look very good. β
Insidious, the old man, who looked ugly, somehow, Lin Qian immediately thought of Lipsus, the old man with scars and wrinkles on his face. It stands to reason that Lipsus seems to fit all of these images, and with his spatial magic being able to teleport thousands of miles away, it is not difficult to find the location of the dragons.
"When?"
"I don't know. I haven't been back for thousands of years, I saw him when I sent my people back before, I heard about everything else, I shouldn't have been here for long, anyway, you humans have a lifespan of more than 100 years at most, how long can you have?"
Isn't this nonsense? For dragons, a hundred years is no different from a few months, but for humans it's a big time difference.
"Where are you dragon clans?" Lin Qian suddenly came up with the idea of going to the dragon clan.
"What are you going to do?" said Raymond, with some vigilance, "although you have done my people a great favor, I will not tell you anything like this that concerns the survival of my people. β
Lin Qian couldn't help but tease: "Your dragon clan is so powerful, are you afraid that others will find out? Forget it, you ...... Let's go back first, I'm going to ...... alone Take a break. β
This is the official eviction order, Lin Qian was afraid that he would not understand, and emphasized the word "alone".
Raymond looked left and right, and said with some humility, "You rest, I'll wait." β
Wait? Could he really not understand? Lin Qian was really helpless, he couldn't just let him go, he was here to help.
"Who are you waiting for?" Lin Qian could see that this guy was waiting for others here.
Dragons are simple-minded dragons after all, and although they have gone around in a big circle before, the ultimate purpose is inadvertently exposed. Lin Qian noticed that Raymond's eyes were always looking at the other desk inadvertently, and he instantly understood.
"Are you waiting for Xiaoyi? Then you better come back tomorrow, it's late at night, we humans have to sleep at night, you won't see her until tomorrow morning." Lin Qian was a little funny, he couldn't imagine that this old dragon was actually looking for her, no wonder he spoke strangely before.
"Well, well, I'll come to her tomorrow. Raymond finally walked away with a sense of humor.
Lin Qian's smile disappeared as soon as Raymond's back disappeared, he could be so worried about a dragon with immeasurable strength, and he was even willing to wait quietly for a night instead of bothering, I don't know how many secrets this Xiao Yi still has.
The dragon clan has always only respected the strong, could it be that Xiao Yi has hidden profound strength? Then why doesn't he look at her like a person who knows magic. Lin Qian clearly remembered Xiao Yi's envious eyes when he saw Lin Qian using magic, which was obviously the mentality of an ordinary person who didn't know magic.
The art of prophecy, the mysterious identity, and the great strength? Lin Qian really couldn't imagine why such a person would follow him, why he would marry him.
Lipsus, the Phantom King of Ten Thousand Soldiers, and the Old Fox found themselves because of the three books, Elena found herself because her father was attached to her mind, and Raymond found herself to help him rescue his people, so what about Xiao Yi? She found herself to marry herself? Just to bind the relationship between the two? In general, these people are asking for him, and I hope that when Xiao Yi makes a request, it will not be too difficult to do.
In the bedroom across the door, Xiao Yi didn't fall asleep at all. She had already gotten up when she heard the office door open, and was about to go out to wait for Lin Qian to rest, when she heard the voice of a guest talking. She listened to all the next conversations, and she also knew that a strong man of the dragon clan was looking for her.
Xiao Yi didn't care why the people of the dragon clan were looking for her, she could predict the reason why this dragon came, what she cared about was what Lin Qian would think about this matter, and whether it would deepen her suspicion of her, which she couldn't predict.
The prophecy people are all people who escape the world, and the more often they come into contact with someone, the more they will be unable to see the trajectory of his fate, and now I am afraid that even Xiaoyi's mother will not be able to predict Lin Qian's fate. But why she agreed to Xiao Yi's request in the first place, I'm afraid it's unknown.
Xiao Yi heard that there was no movement outside, so she silently lifted the quilt and went into the quilt, she still didn't take off her clothes, her bright eyes opened wide, and she didn't mean to sleep at all.
Lin Qian, who was outside the door, saw all this in his eyes, although his eyes were closed, his divine sense had already passed through the crack in the door and was once again peeking brightly at this woman who would belong to him in the future. In any case, the promise she made will not change, she is still her fiancΓ©e, but she doesn't know if she has the life to fulfill the promise.
