Li Shuangcheng also felt the sa, a great tumult stirred within him. Qin Yi was speaking about the exact number and cultivation level of people Zhang Cheng had quietly told him about.
Their hearts were filled with unparalleled shock.
How on earth did Qin Yi learn all this?
Was he deliberately probing or did he really know sothing? Speaking so precisely, it can't be just a trial.
Li Shuangcheng smiled awkwardly and said, "Young Master Qin, what are you talking about? Why do I feel a bit puzzled."
"Not understanding is fine. My aning is simple, just don't act recklessly. I despise those foolish people who think they're intelligent, can choose to live yet stubbornly walk into dead ends," Qin Yi said blandly.
Li Shuangcheng's heart tightened. He had never underestimated Qin Yi, soone who could consecutively defeat the Three Kings of the Tianyue Empire was not to be belittled. But now, it seed he hadn't put enough emphasis on Qin Yi. He secretly signaled Zhang Cheng not to act rashly.
He initially felt that his preparations were thorough, but suddenly he lost all assurance.
Half an hour later, Qin Yi finished eating and wiped his mouth, "General Li, arrange a place for us to stay. We'll lodge at your War General Mansion tonight and set off tomorrow."
Li Shuangcheng paused and hurriedly said, "It is my honor to have Young Master Qin stay here."
"Zhang Cheng, quickly arrange a place for the Princess and Young Master Qin."
"Yes!"
Zhang Cheng hurriedly left.
As Zhang Cheng departed, Qin Yi raised the corner of his mouth slightly — the ambushers around had all been withdrawn.
Not long after, Zhang Cheng ca back in haste.
"Princess, Young Master Qin, Miss Yun, I've arranged the accommodation for you all."
Qin Yi stretched lazily and stood up, "After a long journey, I am indeed a bit tired, lead the way."
Zhang Cheng arranged for Qin Yi and others to stay in separate places, considering the gender differences.
Qin Yi smiled but said nothing more.
Yun Susu, Yun ngyao, and Jin Die stayed in one detached courtyard.
Qin Yi stayed in another courtyard far away.
"If Young Master Qin needs anything, feel free to ask," Zhang Cheng said with a slight bow.
Qin Yi looked around, "It's already quite good."
"Then I shall take my leave, should Young Master Qin need anything, just instruct the staff."
Qin Yi nodded slightly, Zhang Cheng walked out and closed the door behind him.
After leaving, Zhang Cheng imdiately went to see Li Shuangcheng.
"Everything arranged?" Li Shuangcheng asked.
Zhang Cheng nodded, "I separated them."
Li Shuangcheng frowned, "How do you think Qin Yi knew we had arranged people?"
Zhang Cheng shook his head, full of confusion, "General, Qin Yi surely knew coming to the War General Mansion would be dangerous but ca regardless, indicating great confidence in his cultivation. However, precisely knowing the number and level of our people arranged is quite frightening."
"One who can consecutively kill the Three Kings of Tianyue Empire surely has his skills. But I cannot fathom Qin Yi. For now, do not act rashly; facing him, I always feel a thrill in my heart, an uneasy person."
"Are we just going to let them go then? Yun ngyao made you, General, look so bad, having killed those young masters. Their families won't let it rest, and the business can't continue; our losses are too great."
Li Shuangcheng frowned and said, "But dealing with Qin Yi is difficult, he said our arranged manpower wasn't enough to kill him, I felt he spoke the truth, not just boasting."
"City Lord, Yun ngyao is the one who hard you, we can leave Qin Yi alone, but Yun ngyao mustn't be let off easily."
"But Yun ngyao and Qin Yi are friends; if we act against Yun ngyao, won't Qin Yi retaliate?"
Zhang Cheng's eyes flickered, smirking sinisterly, "General, I have a way. We can have soone disguise and kill Yun ngyao, then claim it's people from Tianyue Empire. After all, they are wanted by the entire Tianyue Empire, saying they were killed by theirs is plausible."
Li Shuangcheng frowned, "Will that work? This place is Bolan City, under my domain. If Yun ngyao were killed by assassins from Tianyue Empire here, wouldn't it be laughed at for my incompetence?"
"But that girl is truly detestable; killing her would account for those high-ranking officials. If cooperation ceases, our losses would be imasurable."
Li Shuangcheng furrowed his brow tighter, "Let consider."
Unknown why? Though a battle-hardened general, seen much life and death, facing Qin Yi always felt thrilling.
...
...
Night had fallen, with the moon hanging above the willow trees.
Yun ngyao chatted with Yun Susu for a while, then returned to her room to rest.
As she was about to remove her outer garnt, her face suddenly turned cold, her silhouette flashed outside, toes lightly touched the ground, directly leaping onto the rooftop.
A figure quietly sat on the rooftop, looking up at the full moon in the sky.
Upon seeing clearly, Yun ngyao slightly sighed with relief, curious, "Qin Yi, what are you doing sneakily here?"
Qin Yi withdrew his gaze, "Would you believe if I said moon-gazing?"
Yun ngyao rolled her eyes dramatically, "Would you believe if I said I do? Why moon-gaze on my rooftop?"
"On your rooftop, not only can I gaze at the moon, but I can also sneak a peek at you bathing and changing clothes."
Yun ngyao: "…"
"Stop being a rogue here, others try hard to feign as gentlen; you, however, fearlessly flaunt your roguishness."
With Qin Yi's abilities, if he truly wanted to sneak a peek, would he get caught?
"Honestly, what are you doing here?"
"Watching beauty," Qin Yi said.
Yun ngyao was slightly stunned, her face blushing, she walked over and sat beside Qin Yi, "Rare indeed, this is the first ti you've praised ."
"When did I praise you?" Qin Yi asked puzzledly.
Yun ngyao said, "Nonsense, who else here is prettier than ? If you're watching beauty, it must be !"
Qin Yi: "…"
"Yun ngyao, how can you be so cheeky? Taking advantage when you can. The beauty I spoke of is there."
Qin Yi pointed towards the moon.
Yun ngyao followed Qin Yi's finger, disdainfully said, "You're perverted, calling the moon beauty."
Qin Yi despised, "Yun ngyao, read so more; calling you illiterate, you probably don't even know the term? Not the moon beauty, it's Chang'e living on the moon, and Chang'e is a great beauty."
"You taking for a fool? Chang'e, living on the moon, why don't you say she lives on the sun?"
Qin Yi curiously said, "You've lived on Earth for so long, haven't you heard the story of Chang'e flying to the moon?"
Yun ngyao shook her head.
Qin Yi stretched, "Fine, let tell the illiterate about Chang'e's flight to the moon."
"Stop, I don't want your nonsense. Chang'e flies to the moon, shall I tell you about Qin Yi flying to the sun?"
Qin Yi: "…"
"Honestly, why are you here so late?"
"To protect you."
"Hmm?" Yun ngyao looked puzzled.
Qin Yi smiled, "Because soone wants to kill you."
