Chapter 205: Chapter 8 Centuries of the World, Great Waves Sifting Sand
Zhao Yi returned to her own ho.
This was an ordinary residential area, and she lived on the first floor, which was convenient for making a quick getaway.
After returning ho, Zhao Yi imdiately started to pack up her belongings, taking out all the important items.
It wasn’t to run away but to re-hide them to prevent Li Fei from taking them later.
Li Fei’s assessnt of her was very accurate. She was a very ambitious person.
Zhao Renjie had given her the na Zhao Yi, hoping she would be first in everything on the path of cultivation, because Zhao Renjie himself had never been first. ‘First’ was his regret.
Although Zhao Yi didn’t really like Zhao Renjie, she loved her na very much.
A person who aid to be ‘first’ would naturally not give up a treasure like Dream Command.
Without Dream Command, how would she beco first in the future?
Thus, Zhao Yi wouldn’t run away. She would stay and continue to outmaneuver Li Fei until she reclaid what was hers!
“Poison? Traps?”
After hiding her valuable items, Zhao Yi began to ponder whether or not to set up sothing to deal with Li Fei.
But her most proficient magic attacks had been ineffective against Li Fei, and she was even less confident in other thods.
If she failed…
Zhao Yi rembered the feeling after being poisoned twice that day and shuddered.
“Never mind, I’ll wait until I’ve reached a higher realm before finding an opportunity.”
Zhao Yi ultimately decided to wait at ho honestly for Li Fei’s arrival.
It was not until after eleven o’clock at night that a knock was heard at the door.
Zhao Yi stood up vigilantly, peered through the peephole, and then opened the tal door.
Outside, Li Fei stood quietly holding the Ghost Slash Blade.
“You weren’t followed here, were you?”
Zhao Yi asked.
Over the past years, having followed Zhao Renjie in constant hiding, she had developed a cautious nature.
“No.”
Li Fei said assuredly.
After putting his luggage in the dormitory, he had dinner with Li Tianyu and Chen Lixin, and then they went their separate ways.
Next, he took his gear and left Wuda, wandering around the city.
This wandering lasted more than two hours. It wasn’t aimless but a way to familiarize himself with the terrain and routes.
He would definitely need to act as the Green-faced Ghost within Datong Prefecture City, so he had to get to know the area to facilitate future escapes.
Additionally, Li Fei wanted to see if anyone was following him.
Having taken on the identity of the Green-faced Ghost, he made a point to study and practice tracking and counter-tracking techniques, even training specifically with Shangguan Xiao.
After so training, plus the Extraordinary Ability of Danger Perception, even a Tao Foundation Stage powerhouse like Shangguan Xiao would find it extrely difficult to track Li Fei without a trace.
That is why Li Fei could say with such confidence to Zhao Yi that no one was tracing him.
Entering the house, Li Fei looked around and noticed the interior was simple and clean; he didn’t know if Zhao Yi had just cleaned or if she was always this tidy.
“Write down all of the cultivation thods of the Nightmare Sect and give them to .”
Li Fei told Zhao Yi.
“They’re already prepared.”
Zhao Yi turned and walked into the bedroom, bringing out a thick notebook and handing it to Li Fei:
“Here are the cultivation thods of the Nightmare Sect, enough to carry you all the way to the Tao Foundation Stage.”
Li Fei received the notebook and browsed through it briefly. The handwriting was quite elegant, likely penned by Zhao Yi herself.
“You know I’m a student of Wu’an University.”
“Yeah, so what?”
“That ans if I want to verify the authenticity of this content, there are ways to do so.”
“I know.”
“Good.”
Li Fei didn’t say any more.
Everyone was intelligent; so things didn’t need to be said.
Zhao Yi naturally had considered tampering with the cultivation thod, but given Li Fei’s status as a student at the Zhi Ge Departnt of Wu’an University, she ultimately abandoned the idea.
Just as Li Fei said, there were many ways he could verify the truth, and if any tampering was discovered, Zhao Yi would be the one to lose out in the end.
Zhao Yi did not want to experience the Nether Spring Poison once more.
“Here, take this.”
Unexpectedly, Li Fei suddenly pulled out a paper package from his bosom and handed it to Zhao Yi.
Zhao Yi’s expression changed imdiately, and she said agitatedly, “What are you doing? The cultivation thods I’ve given you are genuine, there’s absolutely no tampering! You can verify it yourself at Wuda!”
“I’m not trying to verify the authenticity of the cultivation thods.”
Li Fei calmly looked at Zhao Yi, “This poison is different from what you took before. It is a slowly acting poison I’ve just concocted. It will only act periodically, and taking the antidote on ti will neutralize it.”
“What do you an?”
Zhao Yi stared intently at Li Fei.
Looking at her frankly, Li Fei said, “Given our current relationship, I need so ans to restrain you, or else I’ll always have to worry about being bitten by you soday. If you can’t resist acting against and fail again, I’m afraid I won’t leave you behind, considering everyone only gets one chance. To reduce your impulsiveness and for your safety, I had no choice but to poison you.”
“…”
Li Fei’s frankness left Zhao Yi speechless.
“You use a tone that’s supposed to be for my own good, yet speak of poisoning , and still think you’re a good person?”
Zhao Yi scoffed.
Li Fei continued to look at her calmly, “As I said before, only those who can hold a gun at others can be good people.”
Zhao Yi intended to sneer a few more tis but suddenly thought of sothing:
Today, Li Fei could have simply followed her ho and ransacked her place.
