Chapter 288 Aren’t You Cheating Too Much?
After talking with Taiyang, Qiu Bieyi went to Haiya Palace first.
The sea breeze brought with it the faint scent of sea salt. The man sat alone in the shallow water, holding a rattle in his hand, staring blankly into the distant sky.
Qiu Bieyi did not use his original skin, but turned into the young man with a mortal body. He walked over and sat next to the man, fiddling with the water, looking at the ripples, and whispered "Uncle".
Zhai Ling then realized someone was coming. The man tilted his head and looked over. It was Qiu Bieyi. He smiled faintly, "Ayi?"
Qiu Bieyi looked at the rattle in the man's hand and asked, "What is this?"
Zhai Ling smiled and handed him the rattle. "There are still many of these little things Yan Ting played with when she was a child in the storeroom at home, but this one was made by me. When she was a child, I was so busy in the laboratory that I couldn't go back to sleep with her, so she liked to sleep with this in her arms."
Qiu Bieyi took it and gently turned it. A "gurgling" sound was heard, and he said softly, "Sister Yan Ting's soul is saved. Don't worry, we will protect her."
"Ah... okay." Zhai Ling responded softly and fell silent.
After a long time, a man's voice rang out in the empty Sea Cliff Palace.
"She was only this big when she came to me." Zhai Ling stretched out his hand and drew a picture. It was about 50 centimeters. "She was just a little baby. I didn't want her when God gave her to me."
"Because I was only 120 years old at the time, and I was so busy that I couldn't raise a child."
Zhai Ling laughed, "But the child grabbed my finger and wouldn't let go. I took her back without thinking. When I came to my senses, I realized that I didn't know how to take care of a child."
"Zhai Nian was born at that time, and Qingzhu A Li and I began to be busy fathers."
"I am different from Qingzhu. Yan Ting does not have my blood in her body. I am not her father, and I have no intention of having another child. So I asked her to call me teacher." Zhai Ling said to himself:
"She was very well behaved when she was little, but she became a little rebellious when she grew up. She was also stubborn. At that time, I was not as gentle as I am now, so she got beaten up a lot. Later, when Shen Yan and I got together, she started calling me by my name."
"Shen Yan was only in his early twenties at the time, and she was in her teens, both of them were playful and rebellious. He took her to the military headquarters, and we didn't see each other for a day or half a month."
"No respect for elders or younger people" was the word I used most often at that time.
"Until she and Zhai Nian disappeared together."
Zhai Ling fell into a long memory. "We searched almost the entire Qinghe area, but couldn't find them. We even asked Admiral Han to help search among humans, but there was still no trace of them until Aqing arrived."
"My child is back home, I am happy."
"I watched her find a lover and now have a child. Although the process was difficult and there were many accidents, I was really happy for her. But I never thought she would leave me so early."
His voice was surprisingly flat, without any ups and downs, just like any other conversation. "I advised her and even threatened her that if she gave up her life like this, she should not recognize me as her teacher."
"That day she knelt in front of me and called me father, saying that she was an unfilial daughter and could not be with me for the rest of her life... I can't remember the rest of the words, I just know that she knelt straight with her frail body and kowtowed three times."
"This was the first time she called me dad, and also the last time."
Tears flowed down his cheeks, and fell into the water drop by drop. His tone was still steady. "I was so angry that my eyes turned black. I cursed her a lot of ugly words, but seeing her stubborn look, I still compromised. I respect her choice."
"Ayi, I have sent away six younger brothers, and I should be used to parting, but she is the child I raised with my own hands. I can't bear to let her go, but I can't keep her."
Having said that, Zhai Ling wiped away his tears and smiled, splashing water with his tail. The man's gentle and low voice was buried in the sound of the splashing water.
"She was so willing to abandon Nian Nian and us and leave like this."
-----
A month later, Zhenqing opened the bedroom door.
The courtyard has changed. It was renovated by Qiu Bieyi. The style of the temple has always changed according to the owner's ideas.
Nothing else has changed, except the island they live on. The layout is basically the same as the garden they saw in the dimensional world. Now the bedroom they live in has become like the temple of the moon, built on the water.
The lake was covered with lavender lotus flowers and some unknown aquatic plants. No one knew how many fish fry Qiu Bieyi had picked from the Moon and Phoenix. Small blue and red fish could be seen everywhere on the lake.
Two steps outside are the circular corridor and pavilion. The corridor made of white jade and colored glaze is covered with lush and beautiful wisteria flowers. The pavilion made of ice crystals in the distance is surrounded by various flowers, and the fragrance of flowers is fresh and refreshing.
Wen Sheng and Wei Yang were fighting fiercely on the lake, with water splashing everywhere. Most of the lake was covered in flames, affecting many flowers and plants. Only the area under Zhen Qing's feet was intact.
Qiu Bieyi and several others sat in the pavilion around a table made of ice crystals. Gu Yuan was in a meeting with a communicator and official documents in his hand. Occasionally, he would look up to help check on Lan Yun and others who were playing chess nearby.
Qiu Bieyi's eyes were covered with a black cloth. He sat on one side, holding the white chess piece between his index and middle fingers. He calmly made his move and then picked up the teacup to drink tea. On the other side were Lan Yunmuyao and Ling Jie. The little fox probably wanted to try playing chess on a whim, but his skills were not good enough, so Ling Jie sat on the side to give him guidance.
Mu Yao stood beside the chessboard, her face full of question marks. She felt it was unbelievable and suspected that Qiu Bieyi was cheating, otherwise how could the four of them not be able to beat the blindfolded player.
Zhenqing was stunned and a little dazed as he looked at everything in front of him.
Qiu Bieyi was the first to notice Zhen Qing coming out. His spirit had remained in the bedroom so that he could be aware of any changes in Zhen Qing as soon as possible. The young man's spiritual power was unstable and his mind was confused, so he slept for nearly a month.
"Brother." Qiu Bieyi tore off the black cloth, appeared in front of the young man, held his hand, and smiled, "Are you awake? How do you feel? Are you feeling unwell?"
"I'm fine." Zhen Qing smiled and kissed his lips. He had calmed down and walked out. "I'm sorry for making you worry, Qiuqiu."
Qiu Bieyi pressed his forehead against his, and the runes touched each other with a warm glow, "I'm glad that you're okay, brother."
After he finished speaking, his divine power enveloped Zhen Qing, and his spirit swept over the boy's body. Gu Yuan and the others stopped what they were doing and ran over, "Ah Qing!"
Zhenqing caught Lan Yun who was shot at him like a small cannonball. The little fox rubbed Zhenqing's face with a few whimpering sounds. Others also ran over and quickly surrounded him. None of them mentioned Yan Ting. They just chattered about what had happened in the past month.
Wei Yang tugged at the boy's sleeve, his eyes sparkling, "Ah Qing, you don't know, the radiant spirits and humans are fighting!"
Gu Yuan fanned himself, his tone revealing a bit of gloating, and simply recounted what had happened in the past month, "Tina and the humans failed to reach an agreement, and they went straight to fighting."
Zhenqing paused while touching the little fox's hand, and looked at everyone in surprise, "Why did they suddenly start fighting? How long have I slept?"
Mu Yao made a sign, "One month, oh, that's not important. Ah Qing, Ah Yi said you are at the ninth level, come and feel what it feels like to be at the ninth level?!"
Zhen Qing finally reacted and hurried to check the changes in his body. The seal had broken four layers, and the supernatural power and divine power in his body surged at the same time. He felt it carefully and said, "I don't feel much. I may need practice to know."
Wei Yang's eyes lit up, "If that's the case......"
Except for Qiu Bieyi, the weapons of everyone else appeared at the same time and attacked Zhenqing.
Zhen Qing took two steps back suddenly. The little fox took the opportunity to jump away and transformed into a human form. He bounced into the air, and a golden wooden bow appeared in his hand. Behind him were countless dazzling golden arrows. "Ah Qing! We are all at the eighth level."
Zhenqing looked at them helplessly, the whip in his hand gradually taking shape with the thunder and lightning, "Come on, let me see how strong you are. It would be too embarrassing if the six of you eighth-level warriors couldn't beat me, a ninth-level warrior."
"Then you are not allowed to use your divine power!" Mu Yao suddenly appeared behind him, and moved towards Zhenqing's back with her wind-based abilities.
Zhen Qing dodged sideways, broke through the girl's wind ability, grabbed her wrist and swung it outward, avoiding Wen Sheng's sword move.
"Row."
"Ayi, don't help me!" The spiritual blue butterflies were flying, trapping Qiu Bieyi, who had just taken out the golden lotus, in a cage formed by the blue butterflies.
Qiu Bieyi: “..........”
"Okay, you guys fight." He conjured a swing inside the cage, sat on it, picked up the document sent by Zhai Li and prepared to deal with it. He watched Zhen Qing block Wei Yang's dagger with a rapier and took out the trumpet.
"Do you need my help directing?"
"you shut up!"
What a joke. What's the difference between following his orders and helping Zhenqing?
Qiu Bieyi shut up.
Zhen Qing used his whip to sweep away the sword shot by Lan Yun. Looking at the five people surrounding him, he used the spatial power of "replacement" and instantly his position became Lan Yun's.
Gu Yuan and his companions almost failed to brake. Wei Yang was the first to use his clones, and the seven clones attacked Zhen Qing one after another again.
The whip in the boy's hand wrapped in lightning and smashed one of Wei Yang's clones. He lightly touched the water with his fingertips and appeared in the air. People after the ninth level can basically use their supernatural powers to fly in the air.
At the same time, Gu Yuan spread his wings, and ice and snow covered half of the lake, while the other side was basically covered by flames.
Wei Yang has mastered the golden flame and can now designate a target to attack. Others are no longer afraid of the burning flame.
Zhenqing looked at the corner of his clothes that was burned by the golden flame, Gu Yuan's "Cold Soul", and then looked at the eighth-level spiritual solution Wen Sheng who could fly with mental power. The corner of his mouth twitched, "No, are you serious?"
The blue and black spiritual powers turned into faint wings behind Lingjie Wensheng. One of them rushed forward with a sword flower, and the other had a blue butterfly in his hand, and behind him was a huge lion spiritual entity.
Wen Sheng fought with Zhen Qing, and the dark power appeared silently behind Zhen Qing, blocking Zhen Qing's retreat.
Dark powers after level eight are the nemesis of space powers, because dark powers also possess a small portion of the capabilities of space powers.
He said, "If we don't fight you for real, we really can't win."
The rapier in Zhenqing's hand blocked Wensheng's sword tightly, making a sharp "swish" sound of metal collision.
Zhen Qing raised his eyebrows, and his spatial power instantly imprisoned Wen Sheng. The boy's rapier turned into a whip to break the blockade of the dark power. His other hand blocked Mu Yao's fist, and the lightning power flowed through Mu Yao's boxing gloves and wrapped around the girl's entire body.
"Ouch!" Mu Yao was startled by the electric shock, and a spear appeared in her other hand and stabbed towards Zhen Qing.
Zhen Qing had no choice but to let go, jumped over Gu Yuan's ice spikes, and swung the whip to smash Wei Yang's second clone into pieces.
Lan Yun drew his bow and aimed at Zhen Qing who was fighting with them in the air, and thousands of arrows were fired at the same time, carrying the power of light in the sunlight.
Zhenqing tapped his left hand lightly, and the spatial power swallowed up all of Lan Yun's sword and returned it to Gu Yuan and the others. Everyone dodged three times. Wei Yang felt that his third clone was gone, and shouted, "Ah Yun!"
"Here I am." Lan Yun smiled at Zhen Qing, "Qing, how about we play hide and seek?"
Zhenqing suddenly got goosebumps all over his body, and in the blink of an eye he was pulled into Lan Yun's territory.
Zhenqing: “???”
Oh no, I forgot that they can comprehend the domain after reaching the eighth level. The domain usually only appears at the ninth level, and not every ninth-level psychic can possess it. But Gu Yuan and the others are all abnormal, so it is too normal for them to have the domain at the eighth level.
Zhen Qing felt a bit overwhelmed looking at the green environment. The territory of Lan Yun, the little fox that was as thin as sesame dumplings, could not be so simple. It must be filled with murderous intent. Perhaps these flowers and plants were lovely green plants one second and turned into carnivorous plants the next.
"Jie Jie Jie."
Zhenqing's face was filled with black lines. He guessed correctly that the entire area was full of Piranha Plants, but who could tell him why these Piranha Plants would make such obscene laughter!!!
Moreover, the vegetation was dense, so he not only had to avoid the carnivorous plants, but also had to be wary of Gu Yuan and others who were hiding.
I don’t know how big Lan Yun’s territory is?
Lightning spread under Zhenqing's feet, and the approaching carnivorous plant was instantly reduced to ashes. He sighed and swung the whip in his hand to try to create a gap.
The ninth-order spatial power can already reach the level of tearing the domain apart, but Lan Yun’s domain can actually restrain the spatial power.
Zhen Qing narrowed his eyes, he slowly raised his hand, and a huge ball of thunder gradually condensed in the palm of his hand. The entire field was instantly destroyed by lightning. He did not use any force, if the field was torn apart by a strong attack, it would have an impact on him.
After Lan Yun's domain dissipated, he found himself in a field of ice and snow.
There was ice and snow all around, and every snowflake contained a powerful explosive force. Zhenqing used his spatial ability to create a protective barrier for himself and stood in the snow in silence.
Zhenqing: "........." Okay, okay, nesting dolls, right? Can the field be played like this? ? ?
"You guys are cheating, aren't you?"
