Qin Shi turned around abruptly and saw that not far in front of him was a thundercloud that was at least a thousand meters wide. Within the thundercloud, there were nine spiraling evil dragons.
"Kowloon's Hidden Abyss?"
Qin Shi narrowed his eyes. Lu Peng's mouth was also wide open. The degree of Kowloon's Hidden Abyss was several times greater than his. It was even comparable to the one Qin Shi had just used.
If the user's spiritual power was not as strong as Qin Shi's, this attack would have been comparable to Qin Shi's.
Qin Shi slammed his head down and his gaze landed on a skinny youth under the flag of the Martial Arts Arena. The youth looked to be about 18 or 19 years old, and he looked quite similar to Qin Shi when he had just left Desolate Town. There was a hint of worry in his eyes that did not match his age.
Qin Shi narrowed his eyes. This youth was only at the initial Domain Realm, but the Kowloon's Hidden Abyss had indeed made him feel threatened.
"Brat, this little guy is a genius. He actually has a photographic memory like you?
Moreover, photographic memory is not the only thing that can be used in martial arts. Most of the circulation requires the control of the spiritual power in one's body. He just saw you use it once, and he can already reach such a level. I have never seen such a genius in tens of thousands of years! "The evil demon said excitedly.
Qin Shi nodded. Even he did not dare to say that he had photographic memory for a reincarnation level martial art like Kowloon's Hidden Abyss. At most, he could draw a picture of it, but this youth had done it?
Qin Shi pursed his lips in excitement. He looked like he was thirsty for talent as he slowly walked in front of the youth.
"What is your name?"
"Palace Master, I am Qian Xundao." The youth cupped his fists and said politely.
"Qian Xundao?" Qin Shi nodded to himself. This name was very common, but it seemed to be a metaphor for the great world.
"Do you have the power to read steles from a horse and observe a flock of sheep?" Qin Shi asked.
"Looking at the stele while riding a horse and looking at a flock of sheep. Most of them have good eyesight. I can't do it, but I can smell the spiritual energy of heaven and earth with my heart and comprehend the laws of all living things."
Qin Shi was shocked. This young man's understanding was far deeper than he had imagined. When he was eighteen or nineteen years old, he definitely did not have such a deep understanding. He suddenly felt that this young man was very terrifying. He was the only one who made him feel fearful after so many years. He even felt that this young man would become an extremely terrifying existence when he grew up in the future. The more he thought so, the more excited he became. He said, "What a good way to comprehend the laws of living beings. Qianxun, are you interested in taking a walk in the inner 3,000?"
This time around, Qian Xundao behaved like a child as she pursed her lips excitedly. "Can I?"
Qin Shi nodded and called Lu Peng over. "Lu Peng, from now on, Qian Xundao will be in charge of the Qin Palace's military affairs with you."
"Yes!"
Lu Peng replied. Soon after, he was also filled with curiosity about the Qian Xun Path. He whispered, "Kid, can you teach me that power of perception of yours, the power of Heart's Smell?
That's way too amazing! "
Qian Xundao chuckled out and nodded his head graciously. "Of course! But, that will still depend on your perception."
"Hmph, kid! Are you saying that my perception isn't good?"
Qian Xundao shrugged his shoulders, not giving Lu Peng any face at all.
Qin Shi squinted his eyes at that, keeping Qian Xundao in his heart.
"Oh? Seems like our hubby has found yet another decent seedling, eh?" Suddenly, a coquettish laughter rang out as Chen Yan leaped into the martial arts arena.
When he caught sight of Chen Yan, Qin Shi's forehead was filled with black lines. Ever since they parted at the Mu Clan, Chen Yan had been coming to the Qin Palace almost every 3 days. If she didn't come for 3 days, she would come early for 4 days. Each time, she would try to seduce Qin Shi. Uniform, black silk, drunk … In any case, only Qin Shi could think of it. There was nothing that Chen Yan couldn't do. But surprisingly, Chen Yan was dressed extremely conservatively this time around. In fact, it was a stark contrast to the weather. Despite the clear skies, she was dressed in thick clothes. Other than her eyes, she was completely wrapped up without a single inch of her skin exposed. From afar, she looked like a snowball. If not for her voice, Qin Shi might not have been able to tell her identity at all.
"You're going to the Polar Regions?" Qin Shi squinted his eyes.
"No, I just feel that you don't like girls who don't wear much. Then I'll wear more. Have you seen enough?
If it's not enough, I brought two more. But if I put them on, I'm afraid I won't be able to take them off. When the time comes, you have to help me take them off. But your mother should have told you that you have to take responsibility for a girl after taking off her clothes, right? "Chen Yan giggled.
Qin Shi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This woman was really interesting. He smiled bitterly at Chen Yan. "Hurry up and take them off. You'll burn with anger if you keep this up."
"Hey, I say, don't you like women?
If you tell me that you don't like women, I'll give up. If you don't, can you tell me why?
I'll admit that if I go to bed with you, ten thousand men will climb on top of me. How can you be so indifferent? "Chen Yan finally lost her patience.
Qin Shi suddenly felt a little sad. Three beautiful figures appeared in his mind. Every one of them was like a sharp knife that slowly cut across his heart. It was an unforgettable pain. He shook his head and said, "It has nothing to do with you."
"I don't care. As long as you like women, your heart isn't made of iron. I, Chen Yan, will definitely be able to sleep with you in this lifetime!"
Chen Yan cursed. Soon after, she took off her heavy clothes. Due to the weather, her undergarments were drenched in sweat and stuck to her body. Her actions caused countless men to vomit blood on the spot. Suddenly, an idea flashed through her mind. She tried to reach her hand towards Qin Shi's chest.
* Slap! *
Suddenly, Qin Shi grabbed her hand. He took out a spare black robe and draped it over Chen Yan's body.
Chen Yan caressed the coarse black robe. She seemed to like it a little. "Give this black robe to me. I'll wear matching outfits with you in the future."
Qin Shi shook his head helplessly. He naturally wouldn't care about a black robe, except for the one that Yu Luocha had personally sewn on him.
Under the black robe, Chen Yan's beautiful, jade-like body was somewhat concealed. However, the center of her chest still revealed her ample bosom, as well as the luster of suet jade. Chen Yan sized up Qin Shi. The more she looked at him, the more she discovered that she couldn't understand this young man. He clearly possessed the ability to overturn the heavens and earth with a wave of his hand. He clearly could enjoy all the glory and wealth in the world. However, for some unknown reason, she could see traces of worry and longing in the depths of his eyes. Was it longing for home?
Or was it longing for the woman that filled his heart?
The more Qin Shi acted this way, the more Chen Yan was unable to free herself. She pursed her scarlet lips and softly said, "Qin Shi … I don't know what you've experienced, nor do I know your story. I don't care about any of this. All I want is to be able to share your present and future world. As for my world, it only has you. I don't want to be some palace master, nor do I want to be a lamb under the obscene gazes of those men. I only want to be your woman.
"Qin Shi, let's wait and see. Even if your heart is locked and forged from iron, I'll pry it open and melt it. After that, I won't care about how many people are living in it. I'll just pack up and move in. It doesn't matter if they accept me or not. In any case, once I move in, I'll never move out again.
Don't even think about chasing me away. I don't have any other strong points, but no one can compare to me when it comes to being clingy! "
Chen Yan said with determination.
At this moment, neither of them noticed that a beautiful figure was watching this scene from a mountain ridge not far away from the martial arts arena.
Her jade-like eyes were slightly misty as tears rolled down Mu Xiaoyi's cheeks.
She looked at the young man who couldn't be considered handsome but was extremely attractive. Then, she looked at Chen Yan, whom she once hated and thought was vulgar. At this moment, she actually felt a little envious.
"Back then … if I didn't ignore him when he was fighting against the twin palaces because of the Mu Clan, would I still be able to stand in front of him and chat cheerfully with him?"
"Sister, since you like him, why don't you confess to him?
With your looks, you can leave Chen Yan in the dust, "said Mu Xiaoyan.
Mu Xiaoyi snapped out of her daze. Only then did she see Mu Xiaoyan behind her. She shook her head in self-mockery. "It's impossible. It'll never be possible between us. I'll never be able to do everything that Chen Yan did for him …"
"What's so good about that woman, Chen Yan?
She's a coquettish woman! "
"Haha, what's good about her is that she dares to love and hate …!"
Mu Xiaoyi laughed in self-mockery. She had the temperament of a rich young lady, but so what?
In the end, wasn't she still a stray dog?
What about Chen Yan?
She dares to love and hate. She's quite carefree.
At this time, Qin Shi got up and left the martial arts arena. He and Chen Yan went to where Li Shu was.
When he saw the two Palace Masters, Li Shu quickly stood up. When he saw that the two were also wearing black robes, he asked curiously, "Haha, where did you two come from?"
"Hmph, I want to, but I'm hindered by your incompetence. You've caused me to have an endocrine disorder!" Chen Yan rolled her eyes.
Li Shu smiled bitterly. This woman is as fierce as ever.
At this time, Qin Shi said seriously, "Li Shu, there's something I need you to do."
"What is it?
Palace Master, please make the arrangements, "Li Shu replied.
Seeing Li Shu's respectful expression, Chen Yan teased again, "Oh, Li Shu. Why don't I remember you being so polite in the Rashomon Palace?
Have you gotten so used to living in the Qin Palace that you've forgotten about the Rashomon Palace? "
Qin Shi helplessly glared at Chen Yan. Chen Yan was like a docile little lamb, pouting her lips and not interrupting. Qin Shi said, "I'll give you two names. One is Qian Xundao, and the other is Mu Xiaoyi. Help me send a message to the Ten Direction Palace to apply for the Deep Sea Source Reservoir's test qualifications."
"You want to add two more people?" Li Shu suddenly revealed a troubled expression.
"What's wrong? Is there a problem?"
Li Shu nodded. "To be honest, Palace Master, although the test qualifications aren't the real quota, it's still very limited. Every sea palace only has three quotas. I've already submitted your and Lu Peng's names, so I can add one more. But if I add two more people, I really can't arrange any more quotas."
"Only three quotas?" Qin Shi frowned. This was a bit troublesome.
"Count Mu Xiaoyi's quota in my Rashomon Palace."
