BXBX NOVEL Chapter 115: What I Want
Chapter 115: What I Want
This “barbarian” status wasn’t abided by the law of Kingdom Qian. Qin Yi could just leave the kingdom. If Magistrate Yang issued an arrest warrant to the vassal state, not only his superior wouldn’t approve, but they would give him a severe punishment!
Qin Yi stepped on his chest with a cold smile, “Everyone knows that the so-called evil way accomplices are nonsense. If you dare to arrest people at will, it won’t be just a simple slap. I’m an immortal cultivator. If I find you bullying the townspeople with this excuse again, I’ll reap your soul with my flying sword!”
As he spoke, he snapped his fingers, and a ring of fire surrounded Magistrate Yang.
The fire was under stable control, staying only a few inches away from him. It was about to burn him, but it didn’t actually burn him. Magistrate Yang shouted anxiously, “I won’t do it. Trust me, Sir Immortal!”
There was a faint smell of urine. He was so scared that he peed his pants.
There was a commotion on the side. Qin Yi turned around and saw the townspeople surrounding Landlord Wang and his servants and beating them up. Some people were wailing and crying while beating, saying words like ‘die for my daughter’. There were more than one person saying that.
Qin Yi did not stop him, nor did Ming He or the old taoist nun. Not long after, Landlord Wang was beaten to death by the townspeople, which showed how much he was hated.
Some people burst into tears.Qin Yi said, “The murderer is Qin Yi. It has nothing to do with them.”
Magistrate Yang said hurriedly, “Yes, yes, this treacherous and greedy person deserved this ending.”
Qin Yi snapped his fingers again and the fire went out.
Magistrate Yang crawled and ran away, for fear that the townspeople would beat him to death too.
The townspeople obviously didn’t dare. They just stepped forward to thank Qin Yi with a worry look, fearing the county magistrate’s revenge.
Qin Yi secretly wondered whether he should kill the county magistrate secretly. Then he gave up on it after giving it some thought. The magistrate would be frightened when he saw the real immortal spells. He would probably not dare to mess around again. If he really killed the magistrate, the new magistrate might investigate his death. The townspeople might be even more miserable at that time.
Thinking of this, he sighed and turned to Ming He and said, “If your sect is influential here, please look after the townspeople. Qin Yi owes you a favor.”
Ming He stared at him for a long time before sighing, “I thought tao friend was already detached from the mortal world, but you are still like this…”
Qin Yi asked, “Is my tao different from yours?”
Before Ming He could speak, the old taoist nun said sternly, “Immortal cultivators should be restrained. The mortal affairs should be solved by mortals themselves. If you kill people arbitrarily based on your own preference, how are you different from a demon?”
Qin Yi was startled. He shook his head and smiled, “I agree that there should be some restraints. Just like I heard that Landlord Wang was a bully, I didn’t plan to go to his mansion to kill him. I was afraid of making a mistake too, right? But he was obviously bullying the people right in front of me. If you could still stand by and watch… your heart is probably made of iron.”
The old taoist nun said indifferently, “Things like this happen all the time in the world. When it reaches its limit, someone will rise up and change the dynasty. This is the cycle of the heaven way and the ultimate principle in the world. It should not be influenced by cultivators like you and I.”
Qin Yi nodded and said, “This angle is quite high, and it makes sense, but are we really the Milky Way in the sky, looking down at the world from far away? Aren’t we just humans?”
The old taoist nun said, “This is cultivating.”
“Pfft…” Qin Yi said with a hearty laughter, “You have been cultivating all your life and you are still at the Phoenix Initiation Stage level 6, even worse than Dong Huazi, and you still talk big. This is cultivating!”
The old taoist nun was furious, “How dare you be so disrespectful!”
“Look, this means that your cultivation isn’t high enough.” Qin Yi sneered, “If you were really the star in the sky, would you get angry just because I laughed at you? You speak of the mortal way, and you think you look at others from a superior perspective of the heaven way? Isn’t it just because you have cultivation that you feel different from mortal?!”
The old taoist nun was fuming.
Qin Yi sneered, “Why are you here for? To slay the zombie! Qing Xu was injured by us and retreated into the temple. Who knows what will happen if this is delayed? You still have the mood to educate me about what a cultivator should do”
Ming He, who had never spoken, finally said, “Stop argueing, you two. The dispute of tao can’t settled within a short time. There is still a strong zombie aura deep in this place. I’m afraid the matter is not that simple. I have to go in and investigate.”
Before she finished her words, the immobilized taoists suddenly screamed in unison.
Ming He suddenly turned her head.
Her immobilization spell was supposed to stop them from making any sound.
However, they saw that the faces of the taoists were festering, and invisible traces of flesh and blood were quickly drained into the ground somewhere. In just an instant, the taoists turned into rotten zombies.
Ming He looked at Taoist Qing He’s body in silence and sighed, “He thought he could live forever by practicing the zombie art. In fact, he was just a puppet refined by someone else without knowing it. What a pitiful person.”
The old taoist nun immediately said, “Let’s go in!”
Ming He shook her head, “It’s dangerous inside, so Master’s Junior, please guard outside lest these zombies come back alive.”
After speaking, she walked directly to the inner hall.
Qin Yi naturally walked beside her. He found that the Han Men had already disappeared when they were arguing… Ming He can deal with the zombie. My mission is to keep an eye on the sinister fat mouse, otherwise Ming He may face unexpected danger.
Ming He said, “It’s dangerous inside. Do you really want to come?”
Qin Yi said, “With your protection, I can still go and have a look.”
Ming He sighed, “You said you wanted to watch my show, but you staged a show first. This act of chivalry…”
“Are you going to lecture me like the old taoist nun did?”
“No.” Ming He whispered, “I won’t do what you did, but when you did that, I felt at ease. Maybe… my cultivation isn’t enough.”
“Well… you are different from that old taoist nun… I can see that you are hesitant.” Qin Yi said, “You would stop for the hostages. I once heard you say that you swore not to kill anyone. You have compassion. You don’t seem so far away as it shows on the surface.”
Ming He said, “The immortal way should have compassion. Although we are detached from the mortal world, we are still from the mortal world. If we really treat mortals like ants, trampling on them wantonly and ignoring living beings, we are not immortals, but demons. So I’m here to slay the zombie so that the living beings here will not be affected by drought.”
Qin Yi smiled and said, “It should be so.”
Ming He added, “But when it comes to fights between mortals, cultivators really shouldn’t interfere rashly. If you act based on your own preferences because you have cultivation, you will fall into the evil way easily. The mortals had to resolve their affairs with their own rules. Just like… When I thought Li Qinglin killed his brother, I killed Li Qinglin for justice. Do you understand now?”
“Ugh… you’re right.” Qin Yi sighed, “As I said just now, I agree that there needs to be rules, but to the extent of turning a blind eye like you do, the essence is different.”
“Oh? What is that?”
“It’s because you’re afraid that you’ll be entangled in the world of mortals and arbitrarily interfere with cause and effect. You’re also afraid that too much mortal suffering will affect your detachment.” Qin Yi said seriously, “This is the essence.”
Ming He was silent for a moment and whispered, “Yes, you are right.”
“Do you know why I like Qingjun?” Qin Yi suddenly asked.
Ming He shook her head.
“She evoked the chivalrous dream in my heart.” Qin Yi said with a smile, “I told her that if she couldn’t leave, I would do her part for her.”
Ming He said, “But as far as I know, she fell in love with you because of your aloofness.”
“Maybe, so we made up for each other’s missing pieces and became one.” Qin Yi said, “I detach to become an immortal and go in to become a chivalrous man. That’s what I want.”
