Chapter 940
However, this kind of thing he naturally couldn’t say openly.
He replied, "Perhaps, the Holy Maiden just wishes to be prepared, being cautious is always wise!"
Yuan Tianqing’s expression gradually grew serious, "That’s true!"
Seeing Yuan Tianqing’s change in expression, Qin Qi couldn’t help but ask, "City Lord, I wonder why you summoned me here this time..."
"I do have some matters I need your help with!" Yuan Tianqing held his hands behind his back and stood up.
"Oh?" Qin Qi was puzzled.
Yuan Tianqing slowly spoke, "I have recently progressed to a critical point in cultivation, lacking a material called ’Netherflower Spiritual Liquid’ for support. Coincidentally, a transaction event is being held recently in Feiliu City at the rear."
"I’ve already inquired, and this item is available for sale."
Qin Qi was surprised, "City Lord, you mean..."
Yuan Tianqing explained plainly, "I must remain in Tianqing City and can’t leave. I originally intended for my disciple Yanran to go, but the rear isn’t exactly peaceful!"
"Not peaceful?" Qin Qi was suddenly startled.
Yuan Tianqing’s face turned grim, "Qin Qi, you may not know, but the cultivators within the Secret Realm are not as united as they appear. Especially those cultivators who defy the heavens and practice evil cultivation techniques!"
"These cultivators, normally hunted by everyone, hide in the shadows. When the Evil Demons attack and war breaks out, it becomes their perfect opportunity to show themselves!"
"Particularly on the way to Feiliu City, there are many evil cultivators. I’m worried Yanran might be at a disadvantage if she encounters them, which is why I hesitated to let her leave. But afterwards, Yanran mentioned you!"
"That made me realize, with your strength, Qin Qi, accompanying Yanran, I would feel much more assured!"
Qin Qi was amazed, "These evil cultivators are so bold? Is there no one to manage them?"
Yuan Tianqing shook his head, "How could it be managed? The Evil Demons on the battlefield are already giving people headaches. Who has the manpower to deal with them?"
"Moreover, these evil cultivators are very cunning, almost never facing head-on, always picking the weakest target!"
"And besides, the cultivators on the battlefield prioritize benefits, who would undertake the thankless task of eliminating evil cultivators?"
Qin Qi gradually understood.
Soon, she suddenly thought of something.
Luo Yanran suggested Yuan Tianqing call her here?
Qin Qi’s lips gradually curled up.
On the journey to Feiliu City, being only two people together, Luo Yanran still wanted to introduce her, the intention couldn’t be more obvious.
He said, "The City Lord treats me well, I have no objections, but..."
Yuan Tianqing understood Qin Qi’s concern and cheerfully said, "Don’t worry, I’ll explain to Senior Sister. Although the patrol is also very important, with the patrol team around, it’s not something that can’t be put aside!"
Qin Qi secretly chuckled.
This Bai Qingrou’s so-called patrol was just a pretext.
He naturally didn’t take it to heart and immediately replied, "Since the City Lord personally will explain, I am reassured. When shall we set out?"
"The sooner the better, the transaction event starts in three days. It will take you a day and night to travel, so why not depart tonight?" Yuan Tianqing said, "As for other matters, I’ve already briefed Yanran. She’ll explain to you on the way."
Qin Qi nodded.
Yuan Tianqing smiled, "Alright, Qin Qi, you may go back and prepare first!"
Qin Qi had no objections, went back to prepare a bit.
By evening, she met with Luo Yanran outside the city.
"Senior Sister Luo, how are we going to Feiliu City? Are we using your Magical Treasure?" Qin Qi asked.
When Luo Yanran was alone with Qin Qi, she couldn’t help but feel her heart race, her cheeks flushing slightly.
She gently raised her hand and from the storage pouch summoned a ship several meters long.
Though this ship wasn’t as large as Bai Qingrou’s, it could still carry a dozen people without a problem.
"My master already gave me his ship in advance, using this ship will make the journey even faster!" Luo Yanran explained.
Qin Qi grinned and didn’t say much, stepping aboard.
Luo Yanran didn’t waste time, her delicate hand moved, beginning to operate it.
In a short while, under her control, the ship started moving, the speed indeed astonishing!
In just an instant, it had already traveled several hundred meters!
"This speed is really fast!" Qin Qi was amazed, "It’s comparable to a large passenger plane!"
It seems the cultivation pathway of Secret Realm Cultivators, evolved over thousands of years, doesn’t fall short of external technological development.
During the journey.
Luo Yanran remained at the bow, seemingly not intending to approach Qin Qi.
Qin Qi smiled.
If you don’t come to me, I’ll just come to you!
Qin Qi directly moved to Luo Yanran’s side.
"Junior Brother Qin Qi, what, what are you doing?" Luo Yanran, seeing Qin Qi so close, blushed furiously.
Qin Qi grinned but said nothing, just wrapped Luo Yanran’s slender waist in his arms.
This made Luo Yanran’s delicate body tremble slightly, "Qin, Junior Brother Qin Qi? What, what are you doing!"
Qin Qi smiled and said, "Senior Sister Luo, we’ve done so much together already, just holding you a bit doesn’t seem like much!"
Luo Yanran immediately blushed, "What I’ve done with Junior Brother is only for my husband. In our spare time, I hope Junior Brother Qin Qi can compose himself!"
Qin Qi’s mouth curled slightly.
This woman spouted something about spare time.
He chuckled, "So you’re saying, not during spare time, I can do as I please, Senior Sister Luo?"
Luo Yanran’s face turned red, not expecting Qin Qi to find a loophole so easily.
But she had already agreed with Qin Qi, naturally, she couldn’t go back on her word.
Even more so, Qin Qi’s hands had long wandered freely about her waist, she didn’t even notice!
Qin Qi continued, "Senior Sister Luo, you said, you recommended me to the City Lord to accompany you. Wasn’t it to seize this chance to enjoy some personal time with me?"
"After all, the journey to Feiliu City takes a day and night. This day and night, just the two of us on one ship."
"If nothing happens, it would indeed be quite a shame!"
Luo Yanran’s face flushed, her heart also skipped a beat.
How does Qin Qi always accurately capture what she thinks inside?
But how could she admit such a thing, biting her lip, she said, "Junior Brother Qin Qi, you’ve misunderstood. The reason I recommended you to my master is because your strength is strong enough to ensure my safety on the way to Feiliu City!"
