The Witch's Second Deal

The fastest update to Seeking the Dao in the Mortal World!

After saying this with a charming smile, Meng Qingying paused slightly, her eyes showing some surprise and uncertainty.

Humble Origins stared at Meng Qingying, a hint of fear on his chubby face. He could tell that Meng Qingying had actually taken to the clouds.

It wasn't surprising. She had already reached the ninth level of the Qin Xin realm more than half a year ago. At that age, reaching the ninth level of the Qin Xin realm was already a genius, a core disciple of the Myriad Phenomena Asura Sect. After more than half a year, reaching the Tengyun realm wasn't uncommon, and she was already much slower than Minghe... It's just that thinking about it makes me want to cry. He's been stuck at the peak of the Transformation Realm for a long time, and it wouldn't be surprising if he were stuck for another ten or eight years...

This level, which is a super obstacle for most people, a level that can hold them for a lifetime, and even cause death to break through, seems to pose no obstacle to Minghe and Meng Qingying. They break through when the time is right.

Thinking of this, she glared at Qin Yi with annoyance.

No one ever paid attention to him running this tavern, and no one knew what was wrong with Qin Yi; he attracted the Witch the moment he arrived. How is he supposed to continue living here?

Unbeknownst to him, Meng Qingying was also astonished at this moment. Qin Yi's progress far exceeded her expectations. He had already reached the mid-stage of Qin Xin, and his Martial Cultivation was becoming increasingly indistinguishable... Given the combination of the two, perhaps his overwhelming power at such a high level would not necessarily be enough to defeat him by much.

They were overconfident, thinking that after breaking through to the Cloud Transformation Realm, taking on two opponents would be a piece of cake. However, while the fat rat showed no improvement, Qin Yi's progress was anything but slow. A two-on-one fight is now a different story...

But Qin Yi casually poured himself a bowl of wine and raised it in a toast to Meng Qingying, saying, "What are you standing there for? Since you're here, why not have a drink?"

Meng Qingying smiled slightly, sat down next to Qin Yi, and clinked the bowl against his. "Why aren't you staying in your Ten Thousand Dao Immortal Palace? What are you doing venturing into this mortal world?"

Qin Yi smiled and said, "My heart is set on the mortal world, so naturally I came to see you."

Meng Qingying's smile became ambiguous, "How come Young Master Qin has started flirting with respectable women after not seeing him for a while?"

"Carrying your handkerchief with me every day, seeing it reminds me of you, and it's hard not to miss you." Qin Yi's smile remained unchanged. "You came to my door this time, wasn't it because you sensed the handkerchief's whereabouts?"

The Humble Origins nearby suddenly realized that this guy had something of the demoness on him, which explained why someone had sensed him and come looking for him.

Speaking of which, a handkerchief? The Humble Origins man's small eyes darted back and forth between the two adulterers, secretly noting it down in his little notebook.

Meng Qingying, who had once said she would take the handkerchief along with his dog's head, smiled sweetly at this moment, "Since the handkerchief has been given to you, it is yours, and I will not ask for it back."

Qin Yi deliberately said, "Even if I use it to do some very lewd things?"

Meng Qingying's eyes flickered. "What kind of lewd things do you want to do?"

Qin Yi said in a serious tone, "For example, blowing your nose."

"Pfft..." Humble Origins spat out the wine.

Meng Qingying's smile froze on her face, and she suddenly wanted to take the handkerchief back.

Qin Yi sighed, "Since Miss Meng doesn't intend to retrieve the handkerchief, she must be here to retrieve something else, like my head?"

Meng Qingying rested her chin on her hand and looked at him for a while, then sighed softly, "We destroyed that Lewd Temple together, didn't we?"

Qin Yi's face hardened. "Don't give me that. I burned down the temple, I killed the people, I've already taken responsibility for it. Others are already seeking revenge against me. I didn't sell you out; I kept my promise. If you want to say that you also deserve credit, then go tell the Great Joy Temple yourself that you killed the people, don't come looking for Qin Yi."

"Tsk, what a stingy man, why does he have to be so particular?"

"Because I only used a handkerchief to blow my nose, and didn't do anything else."

Meng Qingying was so angry she was practically fuming. The smile she had managed to maintain was now practically frozen solid.

Qin Yi took a leisurely sip of wine, then suddenly chuckled, "Miss Meng, your sudden remark suggests you've set your sights on something in the temple and are hoping to get a share?"

Meng Qingying sighed, "If I said yes, would you, such a stingy man, be willing to give it to me?"

Qin Yi remained noncommittal. "Let me guess, is Miss Meng lonely at night, and would you like their Mr. Horn or Bouncy Ball?"

Meng Qingying's smile finally crumbled, and she gritted her teeth, saying, "Qin Yi..."

"Oh, I'm sorry, I really didn't know you wanted those things. I've already given them to my fellow Senior Brother Zheng Yunyi. If you want them, you can ask him for them... Just tell him I told you to ask him, and he'll give me that much face."

Meng Qingying took a deep breath. "Can't I just buy those things myself? Stop pretending, Qin Yi, you know what I came to you for."

Qin Yi put down his wine bowl and looked at her calmly.

Meng Qingying met his gaze indifferently.

That usual charming smile finally turned into a bone-chilling cold, revealing the sinister and sharp nature hidden beneath the surface.

"Qin Yi, we're all sensible people, let's speak frankly." She finally said, "I didn't know that Great Joy Temple would be so foolish as to leave behind such a register, otherwise I wouldn't have missed it back then."

"In other words, you do indeed have a collaboration with Great Joy Temple?"

"This is none of your business," Meng Qingying said indifferently. "When I later learned that the Great Joy Temple had such a thing, I thought that the temple might have had it too, and you probably took it. If you had stayed in the Ten Thousand Dao Immortal Palace, it wouldn't have mattered, but you shouldn't have come to Dragon Abyss City. I know your purpose, and I know how you intend to use the register..."

She paused for a moment, then continued, "The Great Joy Temple has now gathered all the rosters into the hands of powerful figures, except for yours. In reality, giving this roster to the Da Qian Emperor will have very little effect, since it only lists minor officials from one city, and many more rosters are no longer available."

Qin Yi said, "Then why are you so afraid that I'll cause trouble with the roster? Why are you in such a hurry to come find me?"

Meng Qingying said calmly, "In the end, it's still a variable. Who knows how the emperor will react? It would be best to nip it in the bud. In fact, Great Joy Temple also guessed that the missing book must be on you. They have already laid a trap in the Imperial Palace. You won't even have a chance to see the emperor... You might as well make another deal with me and do me a favor."

Qin Yi looked at her for a while, then suddenly said, "Actually, your Myriad Phenomena Asura Sect is also at odds with the Great Joy Temple. Otherwise, you wouldn't have come alone, but with a group of monks."

Meng Qingying narrowed her eyes and smiled again, "This is still none of your business. Qin Yi, use this roster to exchange for a favor from my Myriad Phenomena Asura Sect. Will you agree to this deal?"

Make this deal in exchange for a favor.

Refusing the deal, Qin Yi had no doubt that she would make her move in the next second.

She dared to kill even Minghe, and she wasn't afraid to offend Celestial Pivot Divine Palace, so of course she wouldn't be afraid to offend Ten Thousand Dao Immortal Palace.

He chuckled lightly, "I came for my Senior Sister's mission, and I can't afford to lose even the only mission item. Compared to my Senior Sister, your favor is still lacking."

Meng Qingying's long hair moved without wind, indicating she was about to make a move.

Qin Yi already Wolf Tooth Club in hand.

The Humble Origins from the humble background suddenly sighed, "With your destructive power, if a fight breaks out in this prosperous capital... there's no need for the Great Joy Temple to cause trouble. I hope you can withstand the backlash of destroying the capital's fortune."

Meng Qingying pressed down her slender hand, seemingly somewhat wary.

Qin Yi put down the stick. He didn't care about luck, but he was afraid of harming innocent people.

Just as the Humble Origins thought he had succeeded, Meng Qingying said, "Qin Yi, if you dare to run away, I will kill this rat."

Humble Origins: (╯‵□′)╯┻┻

Just then, Lingxu's voice came from outside the door. "Senior, I have informed His Majesty that he is burning incense and bathing in anticipation of the Immortal Master's arrival."

Qin Yi chuckled. Wasn't it said that there wouldn't even be a chance to meet the emperor? Everyone was wary of each other, so he really didn't know how the Great Joy Temple would prevent him from seeing the emperor.

Meng Qingying remained seated, her beautiful eyes sweeping over the Humble Origins. Her meaning was clear: go ahead and try; if you carelessly hand over the roster, you're as good as dead...

Qin Yi's lips twitched. "What if I said that whether this rat lives or dies has nothing to do with me?"

Humble Origins: "..."
