"So, that's why you've set your sights on me?"

It's not surprising that he can't be mind-read, since the system wouldn't allow others to pry into his secret memories.

Now that Miejue has left, the scene has become noisy.

Ling Yi had lost interest in watching the spectacle. Besides, with his Cultivation Technique Clone present, even if he wanted to forcibly reverse the original plot, the Clone wouldn't allow it.

"Too noisy, I'm leaving!"

Ling Yi spoke, he turned and walked out.

Emotionless followed directly, and before leaving, he called out to Dingdang, who was engrossed in watching the commotion.

Ling Yi looked at the Emotionless wheelchair and felt a sense of wonder.

This thing has no power source, but it's like it has an intelligent system installed; it can move forward Emotionless any control whatsoever.

The key point is, this wheelchair is incredibly agile.

When going up the stairs, the two wheels of the wheelchair did not move at all, just like walking, and the two wheels stepped over the steps.

Ling Yi knew that the wheelchair didn't need power because Emotionless possessed Telekinesis.

But you have to admit, the technology behind this wheelchair is indeed quite advanced.

Ling Yi remembered that in the original story, this thing could Shapeshifting like Transformers, allowing Emotionless to run fast and dodge like a normal person.

"Doesn't it feel amazing?" Dingdang, the little girl, couldn't help but laugh when she saw Ling Yi staring at Emotionless's wheelchair.

Ling Yi nodded. "It's truly amazing. If your family's Iron Hand were placed a thousand years in the future, he could easily become a popular tech influencer."

"Just DIY a Iron Man Armor or something when you have free time, and it'll definitely go viral online."

Although Emotionless and Dingdang didn't know what "Di Ai Wai" meant, they knew that Ling Yi was praising Iron Hand's skills.

" Dingdang, you go back first. I have something to discuss with the young master," Emotionless said to Dingdang behind him.

"Okay!" Dingdang reluctantly replied, gave Ling Yi a warning look, and then ran away.

"What's your name?" After Dingdang left, Emotionless asked Ling Yi.

" Ling Yi, the Ling of 'reaching the Ling Jue,' and the Yi of 'strange'!" Ling Yi said as he walked forward.

" The River-Overturning Beast Ling Yi?" Emotionless asked with a strange expression.

"I don't believe you don't know how I got the nickname ' River-Overturning Beast '."

"So, did you kill Liu Chengzhang?"

"What, is this an interrogation?"

Emotionless shook his head. "Just curious."

"I've checked your files. A month ago, you were just a beginner Martial Practitioner Entry, but now you're at the Middle Xiantian of the Innate Realm."

"Have you practiced some kind of Great Art of Absorbing Power or Kung Fu Hustle?"

"Me? I'm cheating!" Ling Yi couldn't resist teasing Wu Qing when he saw her Emotionless expression.

It's such a cute and innocent face, yet she insists on putting on a cold and serious expression, which just feels awkward.

"Cheating? What's that?" Emotionless asked, tilting his head.

"You can think of it as me receiving some kind of stroke of luck, which caused my cultivation speed to increase a hundredfold, and my comprehension to increase a hundredfold. While others cultivate for a day, one day of cultivation is equivalent to several months of cultivation."

"Your cheat code seems quite extraordinary; you're really Luck."

"How are Bai Hong and the others?" Ling Yi couldn't help but think of the group from Fallen Phoenix Mountain.

"Ghost strategist Bai Hong is dead, but the others are still alive, having changed their names."

While investigating Liu Chengzhang in Fuzhou City, Emotionless unexpectedly saw information about Ling Yi and others who had been falsely accused of being bandits by Liu Chengzhang.

A special investigation was conducted on several individuals.

The intelligence capabilities of the Divine Constabulary's Mansion are undoubtedly excellent; investigating information about a few ordinary people is a piece of cake for them.

It was precisely because of this investigation that Ling Yi's strange behavior was discovered.

Following the path, we arrived at Mount Heng City.

"Is Bai Hong dead? Who killed her?" Ling Yi paused and asked.

Emotionless shook his head and said, "I didn't investigate further!"

"If you have the chance, help me look into it. I'll owe you a favor," Ling Yi said earnestly.

"A favor?"

"That's right, my favors are very valuable!" Ling Yi laughed.

"Then, what if I let you join the Divine Constabulary's Mansion?"

"No!" Ling Yi shook his head.

"Then it seems your favors aren't worth much!" Emotionless wrinkled his nose and said.

"I don't join any faction, and you haven't even helped me find out the cause of Bai Hong's death, yet you expect me to repay a favor? You're really scheming!"

Emotionless shook her head; her invitation to Ling Yi to the Divine Constabulary was merely a test.

On one hand, he wanted to test Ling Yi's understanding of the Divine Constabulary's Mansion; on the other hand, he wanted to stimulate Ling Yi's emotions in order to achieve the goal of mind reading.

The Emotionless Mind-Reading Technique is not omnipotent. Once it is used, experts above the Innate can easily detect it. Once detected, they will be on guard, and the Mind-Reading Technique will be greatly affected.

To increase the success rate of Mind-Reading Technique, one approach is to lower the target's Divine Power, and another is to stimulate the target's emotions; both can be used to exploit weaknesses.

"What are those things?" Emotionless suddenly asked.

Ling Yi was taken aback for a moment, then realized that Emotionless was referring to those Cultivation Technique Clone.

"Can you tell the difference between them?" Ling Yi asked curiously.

"They are Wuxin, mindless, thoughtless, and not living beings!" Emotionless stated firmly.

" Wuxin or mind, without thought or intention?" Ling Yi murmured.

Wuxin mindless or thoughtless, but it is absolutely impossible to be without thought or intention.

I guess they're Emotionless and wouldn't Perception these things!

"So, why did you come to Mount Heng City?"

Ling Yi's abrupt change of topic made Emotionless roll her eyes.

Okay, I just changed the subject abruptly, and now you're doing it again, right?

A 1-1 tie?

But Emotionless knew that Ling Yi didn't want to say more about this, and asking more questions would be pointless.

So he continued, "I came here following your trail."

"So what did you find out?"

The two had now arrived at a large bamboo forest.

The bamboo grove swayed in the wind, its lush green leaves and the scent of bamboo in the air causing the two to stop in their tracks.

It's not exactly beautiful, but this scene is incredibly Intent Realm.

The two of them stared at the bamboo grove in front of them, remaining silent for a long time.

"If we built a small wooden cabin here, and spent our days enjoying tea, playing the zither, reading, and fishing, it would be wonderful!" said the cold, Emotionless voice.

"What, you're so young and already thinking of living in seclusion?"

Emotionless shook her head. She was merely sighing, and it was also a kind of longing. Of course, living in seclusion was impossible for her.

"Fine, I give up!" Emotionless suddenly said.

"What do you mean, admit defeat?" Ling Yi was stunned.

"I've been using Mind-Reading Technique on you the whole time, didn't you feel it?"

"No!" Ling Yi shook his head.

It's likely that the system blocked it directly, so Ling Yi naturally didn't feel anything.

"So, every single word you said from beginning to end was deliberate?"

Emotionless didn't hide anything. "If there's any emotional fluctuation, I can take advantage of the situation."

"Don't try to test me; you can't read my heart!"

"It's unreadable!" Emotionless gave up completely.

"But why?" Emotionless asked, puzzled.

Even a master at the Master level could read a fraction of a person's thoughts given the opportunity, but Ling Yi's mind was like a fog, impossible to penetrate no matter what.

"Haha, I already told you, I'm cheating!" Ling Yi couldn't help but burst into laughter when he saw the Emotionless and resentment in Wu Qing's eyes.

But the next moment, Ling Yi's smile vanished.

Suddenly, more than a dozen throwing knives shot out from the Emotionless chair, forming a large array in the air and heading straight for Ling Yi.

"Hey, what do you mean? You say you'll attack without warning? You should at least give me a heads-up!"

Ling Yi looked up at the flying knife hurtling towards him, but neither dodged nor avoided it.

On the one hand, Ling Yi did not sense any killing intent from Emotionless; this was merely another test.

On the other hand, Ling Yi is cheating; his System Space is practically the nemesis of this kind of long-range attack.

With a wave of his hand, Ling Yi caused all the flying knives that had been hovering in the air to disappear.

Emotionless frowned, completely baffled by the methods Ling Yi had used.

He slapped his palm on the chair, and the next moment, countless needles shot out from a cylindrical mechanism in the chair, heading straight for Ling Yi.

"Again?"

Ling Yi was speechless. He waved his hand to collect all the flying needles, but seeing Emotionless's serious little expression, Ling Yi had an idea and collected half of the flying needles first.

Then he exclaimed, "Oh no!"

He let the remaining flying needles "shoot" onto his body.

He let out a scream and fell backward to the ground!

With Emotionless and expressionless face, he maneuvered his wheelchair to Ling Yi's side and bent down to look at Ling Yi.

On her stunningly beautiful face, there was a hint of helplessness, but mostly a smile.

Ling Yi's performance just now was really clumsy.

She already possessed exceptional Divine Power and keen, sharp Psychic Power Perception; she knew perfectly well whether Ling Yi was injured or not.

But Ling Yi was unaware of all this; in order to make his act more convincing, he even held his breath.

Can...

Ling Yi sniffed; why did she smell a faint fragrance?

Could this fragrance be...?

When I opened my eyes, I saw Emotionless's beautiful face right above my head.

Ling Yi sat up, scratched his head awkwardly, and asked, "How did you figure that out?"

"Besides, your attack is a bit too lethal!" Ling Yi stepped back and pointed at Emotionless's face.

"If I can't hurt you, how can I be lethal?"

"Has no one ever told you how beautiful you are?" Ling Yi retorted.

"What's the meaning?"

"Next time, you don't need to use hidden Hidden Weapons; just use your femininity and I'll surrender," Ling Yi said, standing up.

He was genuinely a little overwhelmed by the Fairy Sister's close-up attack.

Only then did Emotionless realize what Ling Yi meant by "lethality."

Am I pretty?

"What a question! Don't you know whether you're pretty or not?" Ling Yi rolled her eyes and said.

"Next time, never get so close to other men, or you won't just be reading minds, you'll be stealing hearts."

Did I successfully steal your heart just now?

"Just a tiny bit off!" Ling Yi pointed with his finger.

Emotionless blushed slightly, then shrugged as if to appear nonchalant.

She stretched out her little hand and said, "Give me back the throwing knives and needles. They're made of special materials and are very precious."

Ling Yi waved his hand, throwing out all the throwing knives and needles.

Under the control of Emotionless Telekinesis, these throwing knives and needles flew up automatically, then returned to the mechanism of the chair like sparrows returning to their nests.
