Qin Dynasty: Becoming a peerless master through the Golden Light Mantra

Chapter 25 The Dutiful and Responsible Flame Spirit

Meanwhile, Han Che, back at the mansion, was walking along the corridor in the backyard.

Although he had walked this road many times, Han Che felt something was off today.

After pausing to think for a while, Han Che finally understood the reason.

These past few days, every time he returned to the manor, he would run into Yan Lingji, who liked to cause trouble in front of him.

The woman was quiet today and didn't appear in front of him.

Immediately afterwards, he turned his attention to the guest room where Yan Lingji was staying.

The room door was tightly closed, and the windows were not open for ventilation.

Has she gone out?

At the same time, Han Hu, having learned that Han Che had returned to his residence, hurriedly came to Han Che's side.

Seeing that Han Che was looking towards the room where Yan Lingji was, he said, "Young Master! Miss Yan said that she has some things to take care of and plans to leave for a while."

According to her, it could take a day or two at the shortest, but she didn't know if it would take longer.

"I see, I understand. Let's reserve this room for her."

Han Che nodded slightly, turning his gaze away from the guest room where Yan Lingji was staying.

Based on what happened last night, he had already guessed what Yan Lingji was up to.

She should go find her Baiyue companions.

Peerless Ghost, Corpse-Driving Demon, King of a Hundred Poisons.

Although their performance in the anime is not particularly outstanding, if used properly, they can be key figures who determine the outcome of a war.

Tianze really doesn't know how to recognize and utilize talent; he actually used such a great group to create a bizarre and incongruous Baiyue assassin group.

What a waste!

After shaking his head and sighing, Han Che tried to stop thinking about it.

"Your subordinate takes his leave."

Seeing that Han Che didn't intend to say anything, Han Hu bowed and withdrew.

In a grove of trees outside Xinzheng City.

Yan Lingji crossed her arms and leaned her tender body against a thick tree.

Bang bang bang! ...

A moment later, muffled footsteps echoed around them.

Yan Lingji turned her head and saw the enormous body of Wushuang Gui.

Compared to Wushuang Gui's massive physique, Baidu Wang and Hushi Mo following behind him seemed rather insignificant.

At the same time, upon seeing Yan Lingji, Wushuang Gui quickened his pace and stood ramrod straight beside her like a loyal guard.

The Poison King and the Corpse-Driving Demon are much slower.

After slowly approaching Yan Lingji, the hunched-over, aged-looking Hundred Poisons King looked at the relaxed Yan Lingji with great dissatisfaction.

This woman has been doing something for a while now, completely disappearing without taking the important task of finding her master to heart.

"Yan Ling Ji, what do you want to do by summoning us here?"

In contrast, the Corpse-Driving Demon did not say anything, but simply acted as a quiet spectator.

As for the Peerless Demon, forget about it.

Looking at the Corpse-Driving Demon who was quite dissatisfied with her, Yan Lingji smiled lightly and said, "Old Poison Demon, I have summoned you here because I have something important to tell you."

The King of Poisons wore a mocking expression: "Important matter? Have you found news of the master?"

Upon hearing this, Yan Lingji's smile widened even more.

She straightened up and said, "You're right, I did find information related to the master."

The King of Poisons was immediately speechless by Yan Lingji's words.

He opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.

"hehe--!"

Yan Lingji covered her lips with her hand and let out a soft laugh.

"Old Poisoner, I know you're unhappy with me, but I haven't just disappeared like that lately."

The King of Poisons asked indignantly, "Then what did you do?"

"I made a deal with someone, and the bargaining chip was information about my master."

Upon hearing this, the displeasure on the face of the Hundred Poisons King subsided considerably.

"In other words, you have now received news from your master."

"According to the information provided by that person, the master is currently being held captive somewhere in Xinzheng City."

The King of Poisons frowned: "Is this all the information you've received?"

This news is practically meaningless.

Xinzheng is such a big city, finding someone who has been imprisoned is like finding a needle in a haystack.

Yan Lingji explained, "That person is only willing to provide this much information for some reason."

If you don't want to wait, we can try looking in Xinzheng City.

As for whether or not we can find its owner, that's up to fate.

Upon hearing this, the King of Poisons fell into deep thought.

Although he really wanted to rescue Tianze as soon as possible, there was a right way to do it; blindly attempting a rescue was not advisable.

Furthermore, among these people, only Yan Lingji is convenient to move around outside.

Seeing that the Hundred Poison King had not responded to her, Yan Lingji waited patiently.

Although she preferred to wait as Han Che suggested, out of her concern for Tianze, she decided to share the news and let everyone vote.

This is also a kind of comfort to her own heart.

After a moment, the King of Poisons turned his gaze to the Corpse-Driving Demon who had remained silent: "Corpse-Driving Demon, what do you think we should do? Should we continue to wait, or should we try to find our master ourselves?"

The corpse-driving demon was stunned for a moment, not expecting the "fire" to burn him.

He then replied in a very aloof manner, "You can decide this kind of thing. My appearance is not suitable for swaggering around in Xinzheng City. I can only move around outside the city."

Seeing that the Corpse-Driving Demon had chosen to abstain, the Hundred Poisons King subconsciously turned his gaze to the Peerless Ghost.

Wushuang Gui stared at Bai Du Wang with his big eyes.

Meeting those clear yet foolish eyes, the Hundred Poison King immediately looked away.

If Wushuang could communicate with him about such things, it would truly be a miracle.

Finally, with no other choice, the Poison King turned to Yan Lingji: "Yan Lingji, what do you think we should do next?"

Yan Lingji chuckled again upon hearing this: "Old Poison Ghost, haven't you already made your decision? Why are you asking me?"

The King of Poisons stubbornly replied, "I just intended to take your opinion into consideration."

Seeing that the Hundred Poison King was about to be provoked, Yan Lingji didn't say anything more about it and changed the subject, saying, "I'm more inclined to continue waiting. I have a feeling that it won't be long before we get all the information related to the master."

Is the person you're dealing with reliable?

I can't guarantee its reliability, but we don't have a better solution right now.

The King of Poisons gritted his teeth and replied, "Then let's continue to wait. Anyway, our master has been missing for more than just a day or two."

Seeing that the Poison King was ready to give up, Yan Lingji relaxed.

In this way, she can be considered to have done her job well.

It wasn't that she didn't want to rescue Tianze quickly, but the current objective conditions didn't allow her to do so.

She was doing this for the greater good.
