In any case, he had helped me vent my anger. My impression of the qilin improved. I pointed at him and said to the fatty, "Since the qilin is back, let's not wait any longer. Let's start the experiment."
The fatty wanted to test his formation, so he didn't want to wait any longer. He nodded and followed me into the Taoist Palace to prepare.
To test if the qilin had the ability to break the formation, we had to set up a formation first.
Although Fatty loved to brag, he was still worthy of the title "Array Formation Prodigy".
Previously, in the arena, he had shrunk into the formation and won by exhausting his opponent's Daoist Qi.
Thus, I didn't need to say much. The fatty set up a formation in a corner of the Taoist Palace, preparing to set up a formation.
He was very familiar with the process of setting up the formation. Not long after, the formation in his hand had taken shape.
With the formation in place, all that was left was to lure the qilin to break the formation. This made things difficult for me.
Although the qilin had always been by my side, and to some extent, it was born from me, it was very strange. It wasn't as obedient as Tong Tong, and it wasn't as mischievous as the spirit snake. It was simply a steel plate that wouldn't budge. It only had one attitude towards me, and that was to ignore me.
I circled the qilin and observed it for a long time. Just like before, it didn't seem to care about me. It didn't even open its eyes.
With a flash of white light, the fatty had finished setting up the formation.
Until now, I hadn't found a way to communicate with the qilin, so I had to give up and look at the formation that the fatty had set up.
The fatty's cultivation wasn't high, and he hadn't reached the Heavenly Master realm yet. Although his formation skills weren't bad, he was limited by his cultivation. I was worried that the formation he had set up would be too weak.
If a formation was too weak, it could be broken by brute force. That way, we wouldn't be able to test the qilin's ability to break the formation.
Thinking about this, I said to the fatty, "Fatty, you know the qilin's power. Even Lu Zhenyang isn't its opponent. If your formation is too weak, I'm afraid I won't be able to test its ability to break the formation."
When we talked about formations, the fat man wasn't convinced. He probably thought that I was looking down on his formations, so he opened his mouth and retorted, "This formation of mine is called the 'Buddha Formation'. In our sect, it can be ranked in the top ten.
It's not that I'm bragging, but even if I let you break this array, you might not be able to.
Come, let me show you. Watch carefully. "
As he spoke, the fatty put his palms together and circulated his Daoist Qi. The array formation began to operate.
As the fat man moved, each of the four white dots around him shot out a silver light, connecting the four light dots. Qi of the Way surged on it like waves of water. In an instant, a four-cornered tower was built out of thin air, firmly protecting the fat man.
Although I didn't know much about formations, I wasn't completely ignorant. Just from the phantom, I could tell that the Pagoda Formation was extremely profound.
Although this formation wasn't ordinary, I was still a little worried. I explained, "It won't be easy for me to break the formation, but the kirin isn't like me. With its power that could suppress Lu Zhenyang, it will be easy for it to break this formation.
You'd better set up a few more. Otherwise, if we can't figure out what it is, our efforts will be in vain. "
The fat man snorted disdainfully at my words. "That's because you can't figure it out. Of course, I have a way to figure it out.
It's true that my formation can't stop the kirin, but when it breaks the formation, if I can't even tell the difference between brute force and ingenuity, then all my years of studying formations will have been in vain. "
After he said that, I reacted.
I was just too worried. In fact, the fat man was right. With his attainments in formations, he should be able to easily figure out the kirin's method of breaking the formation. I didn't need to worry about it.
There were no more problems with the formation. The only thing left was how to communicate with the kirin.
I tried to talk to the kirin, but it still ignored me. Feeling helpless, I remembered that Tong Tong had a good time with the kirin in Chiyou's tomb. My mind flickered, and I summoned Tong Tong and the snake spirit.
Tong Tong floated out of the jade bracelet. Her body was much more solid than before. It seemed that her cultivation base had advanced during this period of time.
As soon as she came out, she greeted me, "Big Brother." When she saw the kirin, she became excited.
Without waiting for me to say anything, she smiled and hugged the kirin's neck. She was so happy.
I didn't know what she said to that fellow, but the closed eyes of the kirin suddenly opened and rubbed against Tong Tong's body a few times.
I was speechless as I looked at his abnormal behavior.
That fellow didn't pay attention to others, but he was happy with Tong Tong. I didn't know if it was because Tong Tong was very friendly or because he was a lolicon.
Tong Tong was happy with the kirin, but the snake spirit was the complete opposite.
As soon as he came out from my back, he first shouted with a duck's voice. When he saw Tong Tong, his voice became softer. When he saw the qilin next to Tong Tong, he jumped up and hid behind my back. As he hid, he said to me in a trembling voice, "You summoned me … summoned the little snake. What's the matter?
If there's nothing else, I'll go back … I'll go back first. "
Looking at his submissive expression, I got angry. I raised my hand and slapped his head, pulling him to stand in front of me. Then, I told him my plan. "Do you have any way to communicate with the Qilin?"
Hearing that I wanted to communicate with the snake spirit, the snake spirit almost jumped up. His face paled and he said, "Grandpa … Grandpa Zhou, Master Zhou … Master Qi-Qilin, you should ask Tong Tong.
Please be merciful and let me go, okay?
No matter what you want me to do in the future, I won't say no. "
Although I didn't get along with this fellow, compared to the kirin, I was much closer to him. I couldn't bear to see him scared like that.
I could only nod in agreement.
Seeing that I nodded, the snake spirit didn't even reply. With a speed that I had never seen before, he instantly turned back into his dragon form and hid behind my back.
Since I couldn't count on the snake spirit, I could only call Tong Tong over and tell her about the matter.
With Tong Tong's intimacy with the kirin, she naturally wouldn't refuse. She immediately nodded in agreement and hopped back to the kirin's side. She continued to whisper in his ear. It was obvious that she had gone to discuss the matter.
Not long after, Tong Tong ran back and said to me embarrassedly, "Brother, the big dog told me that it's okay to let him take action.
But he doesn't want you to stay here. He doesn't want … Yeah, he doesn't want … "
Don't want what?
I felt strange. Why didn't he want me to stay here?
After asking, Tong Tong stammered and said everything.
"He said that he doesn't want to see you … He told you not to stay here. If he's in a good mood, he'll do as you said."
Tong Tong wouldn't lie. Even though he knew that the Qilin's words weren't anything good, under my questioning, he still told me everything.
I was angry and didn't know what to say for a long time.
Tong Tong saw that my expression wasn't right and hurried to say, "Brother, don't worry. I'll go and persuade him. Let's see if it works."
Before I could reply, the kirin snorted on the spot. He looked arrogant and didn't bother with me anymore. Tong Tong didn't bother with me either.
Alright, a strong dragon couldn't suppress a local snake.
Today, I had a favor to ask of this fellow, so I let him have his way. After all, he was something that had fallen from my body. If he wanted to deal with him, there would be plenty of opportunities in the future.
Today, I had an appointment with the Han family's Heavenly Master to go to the Han family's base. It was already late, so they were probably waiting for me there.
Since the kirin didn't want to see me, I would take this opportunity to go there.
After making up my mind, I said to the fatty, "I'll leave this place to you. Be careful. Although the kirin has always been docile, don't provoke him."
The fatty didn't care if I stayed or not. He waved at me and said, "Third Baby, don't worry. Leave this place to me."
I nodded and reminded him to be careful and not to hurt himself. Then, I left the Holy Zhi Palace and headed to the Han family's base.
Today, at the Heavenly Grand Ritual, the Han family's Heavenly Master's attitude towards me was strange. At that time, I thought that he was afraid of my power. But now that I thought about it, no matter if it was in the Metaphysics Society or in the Blessed Heavenly Abode, the power behind him was very strong.
Especially now that he was backed by the Western Mountain Grotto, one of the top ten Heavenly Abodes. There was no need for him to be polite to me.
Was it because of Officer Wang?
Definitely not. Not to mention that the Wang family was getting weaker, even if they were at their peak, the Western Mountain Grotto behind them wasn't inferior to the Wang family by much.
But why was it so?
No matter how I thought about it, I still had my doubts about the old friend that Fourth Uncle Han had mentioned.
That person's status should be very high. The only reason why the Han family's Heavenly Master was so polite to me was because of that person.
