Chapter 190 Recognition at first glance
Tianyan didn't say anything more, and pushed Lingyi's strength to the limit that his body could withstand.
Feeling the abundant power within his body, Ling Yi flew forward, and vines shot out, quickly wrapping around Bai Jiu and Ye Qing Shuang like snakes, carrying the two of them forward at high speed.
In the blink of an eye, the vines and the person disappeared from sight.
The speed was too fast; the Lan Yue royal family couldn't catch up and could only watch helplessly as the person left.
"Elder, should we continue the pursuit?" someone in the group asked the elder at the head of the group.
The old man's face was grim: "We cannot let the men who killed us get away like this!"
These words meant they were going to pursue them, and some people immediately tried to leave, but were stopped by a glance from the elder. The elder looked at the few who were itching to leave and asked, "What's the rush?"
Those who wanted to give chase said, "Elder, they're too fast. If we don't catch up immediately, it'll be even harder to turn back."
The elder gave the speaker a look as if he were an idiot: "Do you think you can catch up if you just go after them right away?"
Before the man could answer, the elder said, "Return to the palace and have His Majesty issue an arrest warrant for them throughout the entire empire!"
"Yes." Everyone responded.
...
After leaving the Fengyue Auction House, Ling Yi manipulated the vines towards the city gate, broke through the city gate blockade, and disappeared from the soldiers' sight.
After walking for a while, the vines led the group into a dense forest and then disappeared.
As soon as Ye Qingshuang and Baijiu landed, they ran towards Ling Yi.
"Ling Yi, how are you?" Ye Qing Shuang looked at Ling Yi's pale face with extreme worry.
Ling Yi shook his head, wanting to speak, but as soon as he opened his mouth, a metallic taste rose in his throat, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Seeing Ling Yi cough up blood, Ye Qing Shuang was both angry and heartbroken: "Still shaking your head!"
Ling Yi didn't say much. He put Ji Yanzhi down on the spot and sat down next to him. The aftereffects of forcibly increasing his cultivation level came at this moment. Waves of pain came, and fine sweat appeared on Ling Yi's face.
Seeing her suffering, Ji Yanzhi reached out his hand, and a gentle force flowed from his palm, landing on Ling Yi, relieving her pain and healing her injuries at the same time.
As a continuous stream of power entered his body, the pain was greatly relieved. Moreover, the lacerations caused by the forced increase in strength were completely healed under Ji Yanzhi's power.
Ye Qingshuang, who was standing to the side, was astonished when she saw this: "Healed directly?"
So strong?
Ji Yanzhi withdrew his hand and looked at Ling Yi: "Are you still feeling unwell?"
"Much better." With the wound healed and the pain gone, Ling Yi looked at Ji Yanzhi: "You treated me, but what about yourself?"
"It's nothing," Ji Yanzhi said. "The treatment is fine. The reason you vomited blood earlier was due to something else."
He explained that he vomited blood for other reasons, but didn't directly state the reason, which meant he couldn't say. Ling Yi didn't delve into this point, and instead asked, "Do you know who I am?"
"I know," Ji Yanzhi said. "Miss Ling."
Ling Yi raised an eyebrow: "You recognized me even from that?"
Ji Yanzhi looked at Ling Yi and said seriously, "Miss Ling has very beautiful eyes. I recognized her at first glance."
Ling Yi smiled upon hearing this, but didn't reply. Her gaze fell on Ji Yanzhi's legs, and she was about to ask a question when Ye Qingshuang, who had been staring at the two of them for a long time, spoke up: "You two know each other?"
When Ling Yi suddenly made his move, Ye Qingshuang had some doubts. After listening to the two talk for a while, she became even more certain.
"We know each other." Thinking of Ye Qingshuang's special qualities, Ling Yi said slowly, "We met in the Dongyang Empire."
"The Dongyang Empire?" Ye Qingshuang frowned. "I was there that time too. When did you meet? How come I don't know?"
Ji Yanzhi lowered his eyes and remained silent. Ling Yi saw his expression and slowly said, "It's normal that you don't know. We met in the Mirror Spirit Space."
"Where?" Ye Qingshuang was shocked to hear this.
Mirror Spirit Space?
How did this person end up in the Mirror Spirit Space?
Thinking of Ji Yanzhi's power and healing abilities, Ye Qingshuang was a little worried and asked directly, "The Mirror Spirit Space is special, how did you end up in it?"
Before Ji Yanzhi could answer, Ye Qingshuang asked again, "With your cultivation level so high, how could you still be captured?"
After Ye Qingshuang finished asking her questions, Ling Yi looked at Ji Yanzhi and smiled, "I'm also curious about what Qingshuang asked you."
Ji Yanzhi looked at Ling Yi, and their eyes met. In Ling Yi's eyes, he saw an undisguised playful probing.
Ji Yan's idea was somewhat malicious.
“Although the Mirror Spirit Space is special, it can be entered as long as there is a way.” Ji Yanzhi said calmly, “I entered the Mirror Spirit Space for the Three-Headed Python.”
Ye Qingshuang looked at him, her tone full of suspicion: "How did you know the three-headed python was in the Mirror Spirit Space?"
Ji Yanzhi looked up at Ye Qingshuang. He never expected that when he came to Ling Yi's side, the one with the most problems was not Ling Yi, but the spirit girl who had once cried her eyes out and begged him to take her to Ling Yi.
Ling Yi once said she was a chatterbox, and she was right.
Ji Yanzhi lowered his eyes, avoiding Ye Qingshuang's probing gaze: "Why should I tell you?"
"Huh?" Ye Qingshuang waited for a long time, thinking of various answers that Ji Yanzhi would make up, but she never expected that Ji Yanzhi would refuse directly.
"You don't have to tell me." Ye Qingshuang found him infuriating and could only bring up Ling Yi: "But Ling Yi also wants to know. Ling Yi saved you, so you can't just not tell me, can you?"
Ji Yanzhi said, "I also saved her, so I don't have to say anything."
Ling Yi burst into laughter upon hearing this, but Ye Qing Shuang was furious: "Ling Yi, look at him!"
“If he doesn’t want to say so, then forget it.” Ling Yi looked at Ye Qing Shuang and comforted her, “Don’t be angry.”
"You've only met him twice, and you're already siding with him!" Ye Qingshuang protested, "You value romance over friendship."
Upon hearing this, Ling Yi stared intently at Ji Yanzhi's face, then looked at Ye Qingshuang: "If it were you, would you be gentle?"
Ye Qingshuang wanted to say no, but when she looked at Ji Yanzhi's face... well, saying no would be too insincere.
But his words were really infuriating. Just thinking about that made Ye Qingshuang realize that he wasn't all that good-looking!
but……
Thinking of Ji Yanzhi's ability to quickly heal wounds, Ye Qingshuang suppressed her displeasure. This ability was suitable for Ling Yi, and for Ling Yi's sake, she could endure it.
After calming the person down, Ling Yi asked the question she had wanted to ask earlier: "What happened to your leg?"
Upon hearing this, Ji Yanzhi glanced at Baijiu without showing any emotion. Before he came, Bai Qingjue had asked him to look after Baijiu for the sake of the puppet he had worked so hard to create for him.
A painstakingly crafted puppet?
It's no use, my leg broke as soon as I arrived!
Ji Yanzhi is extremely unhappy with Bai Qingjue now; he won't help take care of useless people!
"It was an accidental injury, nothing serious, it will be fine in a while." Ji Yanzhi thought that if Bai Qingjue could use this time to make a good puppet for him, he could reluctantly help take care of it.
