Chapter 95: Mountains and Rivers Ask for My Name, the Five Peaks Welcome
Qin Feng blinked, observing the Eight Trigrams Array beneath his feet for a while, lost in thought.
“It can’t be that the ability to shift and change with this jade pendant can only be used within this light array, right?”
His expression was somewhat strange. In such a small circle, what could the ability to shift and change with this jade pendant accomplish? Did he have to dodge the enemy’s attacks like the main character in The Matrix every time, slightly moving his body?
No, what if the enemy unleashed an area-of-effect (AOE) attack?
Qin Feng’s mouth curled, and after careful consideration, he thought of a use—when he and his wife were intimate, she would be on top, and then he could use the shifting ability to instantly appear on top.
But upon further thought, it seemed rather pointless!
“Forget it. Perhaps it’s because my cultivation is not high enough, so the light array unfolded is only this small. When my cultivation improves in the future, I’ll probably be able to create a larger light array. Let’s try this shifting technique for now.”
Qin Feng walked to the edge of the bed, picked up a pillow and placed it at his feet. It’s worth mentioning that the light array was centered around him, so it could move with him.
Taking a deep breath, Qin Feng activated his spiritual sense. A white light flashed through the Eight Trigrams diagram in the golden light array beneath his feet, and he instantly swapped positions with the pillow!
Although the distance was only a few inches.
After a successful attempt, before Qin Feng could rejoice, he felt dizzy, and his body stumbled, sitting on the edge of the bed.
He never expected that just using the shifting ability once would make him so weak.
Fortunately, at least he didn’t fall into a coma like when he used True Manifestation Of Life Source.
“This Strange Eight Trigrams Jade is indeed a treasure, but with my current ability, I can’t fully unleash its true power.”
Qin Feng originally wanted to try the Eight Trigrams transposition technique, but given the current situation, he had to give up.
Putting the jade pendant into his storage ring, he sighed, rested for a while, and finally recovered.
Knock, knock, knock!
There was a knocking sound, and the voice of the inn’s attendant came from outside, “Physician Qin, there’s a noble from the Governor’s Mansion looking for you!”
Has my deed arrived?
Qin Feng’s expression brightened, opened the door in a hurry, and saw the official figure followed by the inn’s attendant, the same person he had seen in the Demon Slayer Department hall earlier.
“Young Master Qin, these are three deeds from Zhongtian Street. Please accept them.” The official handed them over.
Qin Feng took the deeds, elated, “Sir, how can I let you deliver them personally? How about I treat you to a few drinks?”
The official waved his hand, “Physician Qin’s kind offer is appreciated, but the matters in Qiyuan City are currently busy. There’s no time now. Let’s find another opportunity in the future.”
With that, the official bid farewell and left.
Seeing off the official, Qin Feng sent away the attendant and, holding the three deeds, went back to his room, inspecting them back and forth. It was no exaggeration to say that these three deeds alone were worth at least tens of thousands of taels of silver!
Moreover, to purchase deeds in Qiyuan City, it wasn’t just about money; connections were also necessary!
The sound of swallowing saliva was particularly harsh at this moment.
I actually mocked this young man just now. Who gave me the courage? Perhaps it was Fish Leong*.
“Dr. Qin, are you leaving?” The innkeeper suddenly came forward and greeted.
Qin Feng came to his senses and chuckled, “Yeah, things on this side are done. I’m ready to go back.”
“If that’s the case, I won’t see you off. Next time you come to Qiyuan City, feel free to visit our tavern again. Our shopkeeper has instructed that as long as it’s you, there won’t be any charges!”
“Alright.” Qin Feng calmed down a bit, slowly walking down the stairs, keeping a watchful eye on the three people beside him.
Fortunately, they didn’t make a move until he stepped out of the tavern’s entrance. The three individuals remained still.
However, the young man in white clothes continued to stare at him with unfriendly eyes.
Qin Feng left the tavern, avoiding the gaze of the three people, and then hurriedly ran towards the Demon Slaying Department.
Earlier, he had told Si Zheng and the others that after everything was settled, they would gather again at the Demon Slaying Department.
The tavern was not far from the Demon Slaying Department; it only took a few streets to get there.
Turning a street corner, he saw Si Zheng and the others sitting on their horses outside the Demon Slaying Department’s gate, waiting.
“Kid, got everything?” Si Zheng asked.
“Hurry, help me onto the horse!” Qin Feng shouted anxiously.
“What’s wrong?” Si Zheng was puzzled but used his shadowy hand to lift him onto the horse.
Cang Feilan’s light blue eyes glanced, seeming a bit lost, and the pink at her ear gradually faded.
“No time to explain. Quickly, let’s go. Hurry back to Jinyang City!” Qin Feng gasped for breath.
Si Zheng and Cang Feilan exchanged a glance but didn’t ask more.
With a flick of the reins, the sound of hooves echoed as the three of them set out on the journey home.
In the tavern, the young man in white complained, “Why didn’t you let me take action and teach that guy a lesson? He even dared to call me little brother! Not only that, what’s with that mountain and river asking for my name, and the Five Peaks coming to welcome me? He’s truly arrogant.”
The slender middle-aged man smiled and repeated the lyrics, “Wishing to turn clouds and rain, wishing the chaotic world to be free of warfare, what an interesting kid. Sima Kong, do you recognize him?”
The Spear Immortal nodded, “The enemy was repelled, but the people in the city still suffered from the insect calamity. At the moment when all the physicians were powerless, the Demon Slaying Department of Qiyuan City invited him, resolving the crisis.”
The slender middle-aged man lightly tapped the table with his fingers, “Physician, the tradition of the Literary Saint, the aura fluctuation just now was interesting. Waiter, bill!”
The waiter hurried over, “Sir, the total cost for this table is...”
The young man in white left money on the table, and the three of them stood up and left.
As they walked away, the waiter scratched his head in confusion, “Strange, how come I didn’t notice these three people earlier?”
