Under One Person: Please Call Me Golden Flash

Chapter 307 The Mysterious Source of Qi

Zhao Zhen stared calmly at Duanmu Ying in front of him, his expression neither joyful nor sorrowful, and no one knew what he was thinking.

After a moment, Zhao Zhen finally spoke slowly: "You don't plan to go back to Na Du Tong because you want to continue looking for Feng Baobao with Huaiyi?"

"Can't find it..."

A bitter smile appeared on Duanmu Ying's lips.

"The world is so big, and the world outside our country is even more vast."

I've made up my mind, Brother Zhao. After this matter is settled, I will head abroad. They have far more advanced medical knowledge there, and their understanding of the human body far surpasses our imagination!

"Does Huaiyi know about this?"

"Know……"

"He agreed?"

"Ah."

Duanmu Ying nodded.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Zhen couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

"Fine, if you want to go abroad, then go abroad. Since it's your own choice, I won't stop you."

It's good that you're leaving. I'll have people watching over your family. As long as nothing goes wrong here, I can guarantee your family's safety.

Pfft!
Without the slightest hesitation, Duanmu Ying immediately knelt before Zhao Zhen.

"Brother Zhao, thank you! I, Duanmu Ying, will remember your great kindness for the rest of my life!"

If Duanmu Ying has ever done something in her life that she would never regret, then saving Zhao Zhen at Tianming Mountain back then is definitely one of them.

Zhao Zhen didn't say anything, but turned around and waved to Duanmu Ying.

A drop of kindness deserves a spring of gratitude in return—this has always been Zhao Zhen's life motto.

That's how they treated Zuo Menchang back then, and that's how they treat Duanmu Ying now.

Taking care of Duanmu Ying's family was the last thing Zhao Zhen did for her.

With this matter settled, Zhao Zhen can now truly say he has a clear conscience regarding Duanmu Ying.

"Alright, stop kneeling, get up, we should go."

"Go? Where?"

Duanmu Ying was slightly taken aback and looked at Zhao Zhen with some confusion.

"Naturally, we should leave this place of trouble as soon as possible."

"But Brother Huaiyi is still..."

Before Duanmu Ying could finish speaking, Zhao Zhen raised his hand to interrupt her.

"This big-eared thief, does he really think he can do whatever he wants with his meager skills?"
With the entire world of supernatural beings hunting him down, he still dares to impersonate Wugensheng.

If you ask me, this guy needs to be taught a lesson. It's not just the Lü family this time; dozens of sects have come to Zhenjiang looking for Wugensheng. He's got a lot to worry about!"

After saying that, Zhao Zhen also snorted coldly, his tone full of dissatisfaction with Zhang Huaiyi.

"Huh? We're just leaving like this? Is Brother Huaiyi really okay on his own?"

"The problem? What problem? He's asking for trouble, who can stop him?"

Don't worry, with that big-eared thief's methods, these people can't do anything to him.

But then again, how did you manage to make such a big commotion just by disguising yourselves?
I heard from my men that some of them had personally witnessed Wugensheng using his unique method—the Divine Spirit…”

"This……"

A hint of hesitation flashed across Duanmu Ying's face at first, but she quickly continued, "Brother Zhao, I won't lie to you, it's actually the same as what you think."

As you probably know, the technique that Brother Huaiyi comprehended was called Qi Body Source Flow, but for some reason, the techniques manifested by this Qi Body Source Flow are exactly the same as those of Fourth Brother's Divine Spirit.

What surprised me even more was that, although all seven of us were bound by the restriction set up by Fourth Brother, Brother Huaiyi seemed completely unaffected by it!

"The source of Qi..."

Zhao Zhen narrowed his eyes, a playful glint in them.

Regarding Zhang Huaiyi's mastery of the Qi Source Flow, there have been many conflicting opinions online in my previous life.

Some say that the essence of Qi Body Source Flow is the "Nascent Soul" in Zhang Chulan's belly, while others say that the essence of Qi Body Source Flow is an enhanced version of the Divine Spirit!
But as for the truth, only Teacher Renmi Er probably knows.

However, Zhao Zhen didn't care too much about this.

Regardless of Zhang Huaiyi's Qi Source Flow ability, it is ultimately just a technique.

Like a rootless deity, no matter how fancy it sounds, it still can't withstand Zhang Zhiwei's slap.

Once one's nature and destiny have been tempered to a certain degree, even the Eight Extraordinary Techniques will be ineffective!

"So that's how it is. No wonder that big-eared thief thought of impersonating Wugensheng to pass off the real thing as the real one."

Zhao Zhen nodded, and then placed his hand on Duanmu Ying's shoulder again.

"Let's go, I'll take you to the dock."

Duanmu Ying opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she didn't say anything more.

Swish!
As the golden light shone again, the two arrived at the seaside pier in the next instant.

"The ship to the foreign country is over there. I'll take you here. As for your ticket, you'll have to figure that out yourself."

After saying that, Zhao Zhen also gave Duanmu Ying a deep look.

"Yingzi, this is the last time we'll meet. I don't know if we'll ever see each other again. Take care."

Without waiting for Duanmu Ying's reply, Zhao Zhen's figure transformed into a golden light once again and disappeared before Duanmu Ying's eyes.

Looking at the spot where Zhao Zhen disappeared, and then turning to look at the large ship behind her, a hint of confusion flashed in Duanmu Ying's eyes.

The cold dock, the sea breeze carrying the salty smell and the scent of distant wandering.

As Duanmu Ying gazed at the giant ship about to set sail, a surge of longing for the unknown world and an intense, unwavering attachment to her homeland welled up within her.

Her fingers unconsciously caressed the cold pocket watch on her chest. The gentle, smiling face of Prince Zhong beneath the watch case seemed to radiate warmth through the metal, but it only accentuated her loneliness and confusion at that moment.

"Really... should we leave now? Just like Brother Zhao said, if I leave, I'm afraid I'll never see my parents and Zizhong again in this lifetime..."

Thinking of this, Duanmu Ying subconsciously clenched the pocket watch on her chest.

"With my dual skills, and by slightly adjusting the few flaws that Brother Zhao mentioned earlier, I should be able to sneak back to see them, right?"

"Father, Mother, Zizhong..."

A barely audible sigh was carried away by the wind.

"Perhaps... just one look, just one look is enough."

After years away from home and struggling with life and death, the deep-seated longing for home ultimately overwhelmed Zhao Zhen's earnest warning and the fear of the future hidden in his heart.

With this thought in mind, Duanmu Ying resolutely turned around, no longer looking at the ship that symbolized the distance. Her slender figure blended into the hazy light and shadow of dusk as she walked resolutely but apprehensively toward home.

She began to mobilize the true qi within her body, carefully adjusting her pace and breathing rhythm, even forcing herself to maintain a deliberately numb and empty gaze, trying her best to avoid all the "flaws" that Zhao Zhen pointed out.

After Duanmu Ying left, Zhao Zhen's figure reappeared silently in a corner where no one was paying attention.
