Qin Yi Nearly Capsized
The fastest update to Seeking the Dao in the Mortal World!
Qin Yi was both annoyed and amused. How could a girl who is so inexperienced at kissing pretend to be so experienced in playing around with men?
Revenge, huh? Are you going to touch me back?
He simply lay down and said, "If you want to touch me, then touch me. It's not like a hero will even flinch!"
After a moment's thought, Meng Qingying took out her Shadow Shuttle.
Qin Yi had a bad feeling. "Hey, what are you doing?"
"The shuttle is used for winding thread; it can wind various strips of material into the desired shape and then weave it..."
"Hey, that's a string, mine isn't!"
Liusu overheard this from inside the cave abode and muttered to herself, "It's probably a needle."
Outside, Meng Qingying had no idea there was a sarcastic voice inside the cave. She was still pondering, "Everything can be woven, I can even weave shadows..." She moved the Shadow Shuttle to a spot and hovered it, grinning, "Let me think... what kind of pattern should I weave?"
Qin Yi was filled with grief and indignation. "I only ever used my hands on you, how could you use the Rich Woman's Happy Shuttle '? It has to be fair!"
"A rich woman?" Meng Qingying pouted. "I'm not rich, I'm poor."
At this point, she suddenly remembered something and reached out towards Qin Yi's ring. "You took my Law Treasure, so I'll take a few things from you too, that's fair..."
Qin Yi really wanted to say that when he touched your Law Treasure, it was actually exchanged for the Ghost Cry Jade...
But then he thought that she was really poor, and that she should have a share of his Spirit Stone, so he didn't refuse and thought to himself that she could take them if she wanted.
As a result, Meng Qingying placed her finger on his ring and remained motionless for a long time, her face turning pale and then red, her expression extremely dangerous.
Qin Yi's heart skipped a beat, and he thought to himself, "It's all over."
How could I forget that there was still some of that stuff in my ring...
Sure enough, the next moment Meng Qingying gritted her teeth and said, "It's one thing to return the Daoist Scarf to Minghe, but to bring back an ordinary Daoist Scarf in return? How reluctant are you to part with it?"
Qin Yi: "..."
"And that bellyband, that bellyband!" Meng Qingying exploded, "Minghe, a Daoist Nun, is actually wearing a secular bellyband! Have you all gone this far with your tastes?!"
"No, that's..." Qin Yi started to say, but then stopped, unsure how to explain. He instinctively felt that if he dragged his Senior Sister into this, he might suffer an even worse fate...
Minghe was in seclusion in the Celestial Pivot Divine Palace, suddenly felt uneasy and inexplicably felt that her reputation had been harmed again.
She got up and paced back and forth, thinking to herself, "Why am I thinking about him again... This past year of seclusion should have left no ripples in my heart..."
After thinking for a moment, he cast a divination stick to try and find out what Qin Yi was doing at that moment.
"Need. With sincerity, there will be success and prosperity. With perseverance, there will be good fortune. It is advantageous to cross the great river."
Minghe sighed softly, "Need, wait, does that mean I'm waiting for him? Or... someone else?"
"Need, it means he is busy with something, but he will eventually succeed, which is auspicious."
"Need, it means danger lies ahead, yet one remains strong and unyielding, thus avoiding hardship. He is always like this..." Minghe murmured, staring blankly at the mountain wall, speechless.
On the desolate shore of the lake, Wolf Tooth Club leaped out of a cave. Standing at the edge of the cave, this was the scene outside:
Meng Qingying held a pair of scissors formed from shadows in her hand:?(*? w?)?╰ひ╯
Liusu: o_o
Qin Yi struggled fiercely, and another Buddhist Light emerged from the ring. It was the Buddhist prayer beads that he also possessed, which had the same binding effect and instantly bound Meng Qingying as well.
Star Dragon looked up, but there was no movement.
Meng Qingying struggled but couldn't break free. She turned and cursed, "You traitor! What have I done to raise you for nothing?"
Star Dragon turned his head away and remained silent. "The puppet and its master are of one mind. Don't you know whether you want me to do it or not? You're just pretending to cut something, but I haven't seen you actually do it."
Meng Qingying received a response from the puppet's consciousness: there was no sound.
Qin Yi let out a sigh of relief, his body drenched in cold sweat. His injuries weren't as severe as Meng Qingying's to begin with, and after taking medicine and resting for so long, he could have moved around much earlier. He had even been joking with Meng Qingying, but this whole "Plum Blossom Melody" thing had turned into something much more serious—who could handle that?!
The two stared at each other for a while, then Qin Yi said helplessly, "Aren't we being a bit silly to tie ourselves up like this?"
"I didn't tie you up, but you're the one who did," Meng Qingying sneered. "What does Grandpa Qin intend to do by tying me up?"
Qin Yi remained silent, attempting to break free from his restraints, only to discover that the Buddhist beads binding him were of a much lower grade. With Law Treasure owner unconscious, the beads' power had gradually diminished over time. He instantly shrank, slipping out before the beads could tighten, then grew back to his original size, casually taking the beads with him.
Meng Qingying watched his actions quietly until he put away the prayer beads, then coldly said, "Now it's you who can move while I can't. Is Grandpa Qin planning to continue what he didn't finish before and put my undergarment together with Minghe's?"
Qin Yi was both amused and exasperated. He'd be a fool to believe you couldn't do anything; Star Dragon was still standing there watching.
He sighed, squatted down in front of Meng Qingying, and said, "Alright, stop being so smug... Minghe and I... I don't know how to explain it, but it's not necessarily the relationship you're imagining."
Meng Qingying said calmly, "Isn't it just that you want her relationship? It's obvious without me saying it."
Qin Yi said, "Then why are you still..."
Meng Qingying interrupted, "So you don't want me at all?"
Qin Yi was taken aback, unsure how to respond.
Meng Qingying slowly said, "Back at the Profound Yin Sect, you said you wanted this Cauldron... and you also said you only wanted the Red Pill. Was there any True Intention behind that?"
Qin Yi was truly at a loss. Of course, his words were just an impromptu performance, devoid of any True Intention. But at this moment, he knew that if he were to genuinely say that he didn't want it at all, it would definitely not end well; the effect would be roughly the same as the hurtful words he had uttered last time.
It's not necessarily that Meng Qingying wanted to compete with Minghe. Ultimately, the root of the problem lies in the fact that from the very first moment they met, Qin Yi was helping Minghe kill her, and he always has been.
He could only answer indirectly, "I'm sorry about what I said last time."
Meng Qingying was clearly not satisfied with this answer and was about to ask further when a painful groan came from the side, "Furnace... what Cauldron? Where... where is the Red Pill?"
Both men glared menacingly at the monk lying beside them.
Why wake up at the drop of a hat? You guys at Great Joy Temple are really something else.
Meng Qingying was no longer bound and unable to move; she had already broken free, leaving Qin Yi's Buddhist beads hanging empty in the air.
Qin Yi: "..."
The two remained silent, ascended above the monk, and looked down at him expressionlessly.
The dazed monk shuddered in fright, instantly snapping back to reality. Realizing his predicament, he hurriedly begged with a forced smile, "Spare... spare my life..."
Qin Yi asked blankly, "What is your name, Master?"
The monk smiled apologetically, "No, I dare not call myself a master, I am just a humble Cihe."
"You kidnapped and killed us to seize our Cauldron upon seeing us? What kind of Cihe nonsense are you?"
"Cihe is my Buddhist name... I was blinded by greed and shouldn't have tried to steal the Cauldron from Immortal Qin."
Meng Qingying glanced at Qin Yi sideways, while Qin Yi, sweating profusely, retorted, "That's called malicious distortion and taking things out of context!"
Cihe just smiled apologetically.
Qin Yi quickly said, "So, you're from the Ci generation of the Great Joy Temple. Seriously though, why aren't you, a remnant of the Great Joy Temple, in the Profound Yin Sect? Why are you hiding alone in this ordinary, Spiritual Qi barren deep mountain?"
The topic changed so quickly that Meng Qingying stopped glancing at him and looked at Cihe again.
This is indeed a crucial question. Perhaps we can even find answers to Qi Wen's matter here. As for the rest... we can settle accounts with him after this is over!
