Chapter 13: Dangerous Approach
Now that both sides of the cooperation have reached a consensus, Qin Zhen continued to talk about his plan.
"We'll stay here for a maximum of two days, and we'll be leaving Yangping City in two days. If I can, I'd like to confirm the gap in the city protection formation with you in the next two days, and then we'll use the teleportation jade handle to get in touch. ”
"Okay." Qiu Sixian had no objections.
"As for the arrangement of the teleportation formation, I won't let you bear the cost of this alone, I can provide you with some formation drawings from the sect." Qin Zhen said.
Qiu Sixian hesitated this time.
The formation drawings in each sect are precious assets and will not be easily shared, why can Qin Zhen give him the formation drawings like this?
"I provide the drawings and the layout of the formation, and you provide the materials for the formation and are responsible for maintaining and operating it. I think that's a fair thing to do, isn't it? Qin Hao saw Qiu Sixian's hesitation, took out a few pages from the storage bag and handed them to Qiu Sixian.
Qiu Sixian pondered for a moment, but still reached out and took it.
Since we talked about cooperation, we still have to trust each other more, otherwise we will always maintain suspicion, waste effort, and delay progress.
Of course, Qin Hao also had her own purpose, she wanted to try the effects of these teleportation formations.
A large teleportation array like this requires materials that the current Tianyi Sect cannot afford. Qin Hao could only learn some simple formations, and then split them into "techniques" that could be constructed with only spiritual power.
But she couldn't build a large formation, and naturally she couldn't split it, so it was useless for her to pinch these drawings in her hands. It's better to give Qiu Sixian directly, and use him to find materials to build the formation, so that she can not only earn more spirit stones, but also have a new formation split.
"Shall we meet at the gates tomorrow night?" Qin Zhen saw that Qiu Sixian had finished confirming the drawings and proposed.
Qiu Sixian thought for a while: "No, the specific time and place of the meeting will be determined by our side." ”
Qin Zhen didn't care: "But the time can't exceed the day after tomorrow at the latest." Contact me when you've decided. ”
"Okay." Qiu Sixian nodded.
Cao Lingyan looked a little vigilant, but he didn't speak again.
Qin Zhen estimated that the two of them still had to discuss some more things, so she didn't stay long, and left after saying goodbye.
Now it is barely one more source of income, so there are still three tasks left at the moment.
The first thing is to wait for Qiu Sixian's news, and go to the gap in the city protection formation to arrange the teleportation formation.
The second thing is to get the information of the streamer grass after returning to the sky, and then go to find the streamer grass to detoxify Ye Yousheng.
The third was to use the runes left on Shen Yingyao's body. There are restrictions on the runes, and they will alert her when they mention something related to the "Tianyi Sect", so that they can find any clues related to the two ancient monuments.
As for going to the village to explain the cultivation secrets to mortals, it has to be postponed for the time being.
Qin Zhen made a plan in her mind, and opened the communication jade handle to see if Ye Yousheng had replied to the message.
I don't know why, Ye Yousheng, who usually sends several messages in a row, only replied to one this time-
"Okay."
Qin Zhen held her chin and wondered if she had ignored Ye Yousheng's small emotions.
Or is it just thinking too much for yourself?
But also, her nerves have been too tense recently, and when she sees anyone, she must first wonder if it is someone arranged by Xiang Rong and Shen Qifeng. It wasn't okay to go on like this, she couldn't let these people affect her normal state.
Let's go back and watch Ye Yousheng's game first.
On the other side, Qianyuanzong, Wutai.
Ye Yousheng kept a straight face and faced his opponent.
It was the first time that he had such a "bad" attitude towards his senior sister, so he still had some weakness and nervousness about "doing bad things".
God knows how uncomfortable he endured, so he didn't take out the communication jade handle to explain to his senior sister again.
The monk on the opposite side was a small disciple of the Imperial Fire Gate, named Tang Yan.
I saw Ye Yousheng holding a sword in his right hand, and his left hand frequently poked into his arms, stopped in mid-air, retracted stiffly, and then leaned out into his arms after a while...... And so on and so forth.
What kind of strange move is this?
Tang Yan quickly recalled in his brain all the exercises he had seen, but none of them matched the style that Ye Yousheng had used now.
Could it be that this is the secret secret that Tianyi Sect has been hiding all along!
Tang Yan, who felt that he had inadvertently discovered the truth, was very happy, and he couldn't wait to go down now to tell the master, saying that he had done an excellent job and exceeded the task assigned to him by the master.
Ye Yousheng was nervous, repeatedly pulling between "Will my senior sister ignore herself forever after getting angry" and "No, I want to show my attitude". The opponent on the opposite side suddenly became inexplicably excited, staring at him as if he had found a treasure.
"Two, let's get ready and get started." Under the stage of the competition, the inner disciple of the Qianyuan Sect who served as the referee saw that both of them were enthusiastic about the game, so they spoke at the right time.
"Tianyi Sect, Ye Yousheng, please advise Daoyou." Ye Youchang breathed a sigh of relief, calmed down his restless emotions, and bowed his hand to Tang Yan.
It's better to win the game in front of you first, I don't know if my senior sister will have time to come back to watch him play after finishing her errands. If he can see his sister come back in the middle of the game, then he won't be angry with his sister. If you don't see ...... Then be angry all night.
"Imperial Fire Gate, Tang Yan, please advise fellow Daoists." Tang Yan also replied, his face tried to remain calm, but his voice trembled uncontrollably.
This is a secret treasure that is remembered by the masters! I didn't expect him to have the honor to fight someone with such a cheat!
The opponent looked excited and something was wrong.
Ye Yousheng became vigilant.
Could it be that the opponent has some special exercises?
The two glanced at each other, and in the next second, they jumped up at the same time and attacked with their swords.
Only a "bell" sounded in mid-air, and the two afterimages staggered and separated, one of which fell back to the competition platform, and the other was knocked out.
Ye Yousheng stood on the competition platform, looking at Tang Yan, who had already been defeated by himself, and his heart was even more puzzled.
It's no different from yesterday's opponent, why is he so excited before the fight?
"In this battle, Ye Yousheng of Tianyi Sect wins!"
Listening to the referee's voice, Tang Yan, who fell under the competition stage, coughed up a mouthful of blood, and was extremely surprised in his heart.
At the moment when the two clashed, he obviously only saw Ye Yousheng swing a sword, but he could feel that there were sword wounds everywhere on his body. And the sword he stabbed out should have been able to hit him, but why did Ye Yousheng look like nothing was going on? Did he dodge?
In this fight, he is now not sure if Ye Yousheng has any cheats.
Seeing that Ye Yousheng was about to step down and leave, Tang Yan remembered the task assigned by the master, and hurriedly ran up to chase Ye Yousheng.
"Ye Daoyou, please stay!"
But Ye Yousheng did not stop, but continued to move forward.
Tang Yan had just been injured and had not yet breathed, and his heart was in a hurry, and his blood suddenly surged.
Ye Yousheng didn't mean to stop, but there were so many monks here who participated in the competition and watched, and he was definitely not the only one with the surname "Ye". Except for Qin Zhen and Heng Mingzhi, he no longer knew anyone in this immortal cultivation world, and he couldn't imagine that someone would call him.
Hearing the faint voice behind him shouting "Ye Daoyou", Ye Yousheng was still slightly sad, thinking about Qin Zhen, who didn't know where he was now, he couldn't help but envy this person with the same surname as himself.
It's good that he still has friends who will call him.
It's better to go quickly, otherwise it will be even more uncomfortable to hear it all the time. Ye Yousheng thought and quickened his pace.
From beginning to end, Ye Yousheng didn't look back, and naturally he didn't see Tang Yan, who still had blood on the corner of his mouth, looking at him in despair as he walked faster and farther away.
This, this...... It just doesn't make sense!
Can't he hear someone calling him?
Tang Yan was taken aback, it couldn't be that he found out that he had another purpose, so he tried it like this, wanting to see him mess up. After all, Qin Zhen, who supported the Tianyi Sect alone at a young age, was his senior sister, so Qin Zhen would never teach him nothing but cultivation, and the games and interests between these sects would definitely have been broken up and explained to him clearly.
The more Tang Yan thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case, and immediately hammered himself in chagrin, only hating himself for being too impulsive. It seems that the boss's concerns are still reasonable, he shouldn't think that the task is so simple and can be completed, or take a long-term view and slowly get closer to Ye Yousheng, so for Ye Yousheng's sake, Qin Zhen will not attack himself even if he doubts himself.
There's still a long way to go......
However, no one can know Tang Yan's sudden emotion about life, and as for the "culprit" Ye Yousheng, he just felt a chill behind him inexplicably, but he couldn't find any reason.
He stood in a corner with few people, and after a moment of confusion, he took out the jade handle of the communication.
Let's send another message to Senior Sister, in case Senior Sister has something very important to deal with? She is so busy, and she has to see herself make an awkward mess after dealing with things, how uncomfortable she should be.
But when she opened Qin Hao's dialog box, the message was still on the "good" one she sent, and Qin Zhen didn't reply at all.
“……”
For a moment, Ye Yousheng couldn't say what he felt in his heart.
He just bowed his head in silence and shrank himself deeper into the corner.
In his previous life, although he had extravagant hopes for Qin Zhen's attention, he also understood that this was not his identity, so he could still suppress his feelings. But after being reborn, his identity changed dramatically, and he didn't need to make any effort to become Qin Zhen's junior brother, and he could grow up with her.
Maybe it was too easy to get, he was no longer satisfied with just being able to stay by Qin Hao's side, and began to want more. But when this expectation is not adequately answered, he can no longer remain calm.
Although he told himself over and over again that Qin Hao treated him very well, people were always greedy.
I thought that I could be reborn, but I must have come to change the ending of my previous life and save Qin Zhen. It seems that he is too self-righteous, how can he feel that he is the special one? How can you feel like a savior?
Don't be too greedy, Ye Yousheng.
He admonished himself repeatedly, but somewhere in his heart there was still a dull ache that weighed him down.
"What's wrong, Ah Sheng?"
A gentle voice that couldn't be more familiar sounded in front of him.
Ye Yousheng slowly raised his head, his god, his senior sister, was standing in front of him.
Because of the light on his back, Ye Yousheng couldn't see the expression on her face, but he could barely imagine the worried look on her face with little effort.
The kind of look that is only sad for him.
