BXBX NOVEL Chapter 21: Wings
Chapter 21: Wings
After Qin Yi woke up, he still didn’t know that Li Qinglin was outside the door, so he washed up slowly and tidied up before opening the door to practice stick skills. He saw Li Qinglin standing in the yard looking at the flowers. There was also a 13 years old maidservant in black cloth standing behind him quietly.
Qin Yi was stunned for a moment. Soon, Liu Su’s voice sounded in the sea of ??consciousness, “He has been standing for more than half an hour, and he stopped others from calling you.”
Then why didn’t you say it when I was washing up? Qin Yi couldn’t say so. He could only put on a smile and greeted him, “How can I trouble His Highness Crown Prince to wait outside the door?”
Li Qinglin retrieved his gaze from the flowers and looked at Qin Yi with a smile, “Don’t talk nonsense, I’m not the crown prince yet.”
“It’s about the same…” Qin Yi said, “Who will be the crown prince if it weren’t you?”
Li Qinglin didn’t respond to this. He looked at the mace in his hand with a strange expression, “Going out with a mace early in the morning… are you practicing?”
Qin Yi panicked with embarrassment on his face, so he could only say, “You will see more in the future. Come in and sit?”
Li Qinglin laughed. He walked into the room side by side with him. The little maidservant also followed behind.
Qin Yi didn’t care about his maidservant. It was not uncommon for a little girl to be maidservant in ancient times. On the contrary, he felt really comfortable with Li Qinglin’s attitude. Presumably, Zhuge Liang had a similar feeling when he saw Liu Bei outside the door after waking up in his hut. He could imagine the feeling of “being heated with passion, he agreed to serve him as the emperor”, no matter if there was a hint of acting in this.
It was just that Zhuge Liang was willing to serve him for life, Qin Yi didn’t want to do that.
As he was distracted, a colorful light suddenly lit up in the corner where the packages were placed.
Qin Yi reacted suddenly. Mahogany sword!
Before he could think, that colorful light swept past Qin Yi like a flash of lightning and stabbed at the maidservant.
It happened so suddenly that even Li Qinglin’s martial arts didn’t have time to react. Just as he subconsciously made a block action, the sword had already whizzed past him. The maidservant behind him also turned into a black light that retreated swiftly and dodged the colorful light. However, the mahogany sword turned around and continued to stab away.
The speed of the black light was so fast that Qin Yi could only see the black shadow shuttle back and forth. He didn’t pay attention to the appearance of the maidservant just now, but he could vaguely see that she seemed to have spread a pair of black wings under the pursuit of the colorful light. She was moving up and down like black lightning.
Qin Yi immediately remembered Li Qinglin’s narration of the crown prince’s assassination, “Only a black shadow flashed by, and the elder brother…”
He didn’t say anything. He just turned his head to look at Li Qinglin.
The strange thing was that Li Qinglin didn’t say anything, but he watched with great interest the way the shadow and the sword were entangled.
“This is beastkin.” Qin Yi finally spoke.
“Yes.” Li Qinglin answered quite naturally, which choked Qin Yi.
While speaking, the colorful light of the mahogany sword had already touched the black light. A trace of blood could be seen on the blade, and a black feather fell to the ground.
The little maidservant let out a “woo” and fell to the ground. She subconsciously covered her head with the pair of wings and closed her eyes to wait for her death.
A loli… Holding her head and squatting in defense… Qin Yi didn’t know what he was thinking at that moment, and he swung his mace almost instinctively, “Stop!”
The seemingly unrelated actions made the colorful light of the mahogany sword suddenly stop behind the girl’s head.
As the colorful light faded, the appearance of a mahogany sword appeared. It fell to the ground with a “snap” and bounced twice. That tragic look seemed to be asking Qin Yi, “What the heck are you doing?”
Li Qinglin was actually still laughing, “Brother Qin’s way of canceling spell is a bit special.”
Qin Yi asked solemnly, “She is your people.”
Li Qinglin said, “Yes.”
“But you don’t stop it when she is going to die?”
“I know that Brother Qin will give me face and cancel it.”
Qin Yi pursed his lips and sighed. It doesn’t seem to work that way… If you don’t say anything, I can treat her as an assassin pretending to be a maidservant and kill her. Wouldn’t it be normal?
He didn’t say these things, but he turned to look at the maidservant. She was indeed just a 13 years old girl. Her face was still very immature. At this time, she was half kneeling on the ground with a pale face and covered her wounded right arm with left hand. She looked at the mahogany sword on the ground with horror as if she was afraid that it would move again.
There was a pair of black wings on her back. The wings were closed like a cloak. The black feathers were shining brightly in the sun. The tips of the feathers were like arrows, looking very cool.
There wasn’t any beastkin feature on her face. She was a very delicate girl. If she closed her wings, people would think of it as a custom-made cloak. It was not uncommon to see wanderers in strange clothes, so it was not particularly unusual. Qin Yi himself didn’t pay attention at all when he saw it for the first time.
According to Liu Su’s theory, this is already a beastkin monster that can transform. She is at the same level as Ming He who is at the Piano Heart Stage, but there is a huge difference in small realm right? After all, Ming He is almost reaching the perfect state. And this one has just transformed not long ago.
No matter how long she has transformed, it is equivalent to building a foundation for human. If it weren’t for the overpowered Ming He, I’m afraid she could really run rampant in South Li Kingdom. No wonder Li Qinglin dared to go to the mountains without worry. Letting her… Uhm…
“Brother Li…” Qin Yi stared at the girl’s face for a long time before asking, “Will you introduce me?”
Li Qinglin thought quickly and smiled, “This is the first time I saw Brother Qin staring at a girl intently. It seems that you like this age… How about I let her follow Brother Qin? Anyway, there is no guard around Brother Qin.”
Liu Su also ground her teeth secretly, “Qin Yi, it turns out that you are this kind of person…”
Qin’s face was expressionless.
“I don’t dare to let a Morphing Stage guard protect.” Qin Yi said, “How long has it been since the case in the Zhang Family Villa, Brother Li forgot so soon?”
Li Qinglin smiled, “That’s right. She is a beastkin, and she has cultivated to the Morphing Stage. The current appearance is her natural appearance, and her age is also a natural manifestation. It is definitely unlike Mrs. Zhang who was covered in a skin.”
Qin Yi turned to look at Li Qinglin, Li Qinglin’s expression was as usual.
“I remember I told you that in many cases, beastkin is not troublesome as human. Human can be used, why not beastkin?” Li Qinglin said, “Ye Ling has sworn a blood oath and has always been loyal. It just happened that I suddenly felt that you and she can get along well… But I still have to advise Brother Yu to remember the lesson of Zhang Family Villa’s incident. Even if you like her, you’d better not touch…”
Qin Yi was dumbfounded by this weird conversation.
This Li Qinglin’s calmness made it really a very common thing for him to keep a beastkin. He could even give her to him… Right, no one would associate him keeping a beastkin with assassinating the crown prince. On the surface, they were unrelated.
Even if there was a connection, theoretically it had nothing to do with him, Qin Yi.
Li Qinglin patted Qin Yi’s shoulder and said with a smile, “Let’s go in first. There won’t be another sword, right?”
Qin Yi shook his head, and he finally led them into the room. He sat opposite Li Qinglin, and the girl in black clothes called “Ye Ling” stood silently behind Li Qinglin. She stared at Qin Yi curiously as if to see if there was anything special on his face.
Qin Yi’s expression was flat, but his heart was beating. Don’t look at this loli look… beastkin with the foundation of human beings! She is just slightly weaker by a small realm than Ming He whom Liu Su praised so much! Li Qinglin has kept such a badass beastkin in his mansion, why would he go out and search for the immortals?
He thought for a while, then he said, “This… Miss Ye Ling, please have a seat too.”
Ye Ling seemed a little surprised at his invitation. Her eyes moved slightly, but she still stood there quietly, neither answering nor sitting down.
“Tsk, Three No loli?” Qin Yi reached out to pick up the teapot to pour tea, ignored her, and asked Li Qinglin, “You must have other matters to look for me in the morning, right?”
Li Qinglin kept looking at Qin Yi with an amused smile. Qin Yi didn’t bother with the fact that he was keeping a beastkin, and he even invited the beastkin to take a seat. His attitude was very natural, which made him feel very interesting.
Maybe I can communicate with him more clearly?
