Chapter 547
Using a borrowed knife to kill
After they sat down, the waiter hurriedly left.
In the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, a sumptuous meal was laid out on the table.
"Wow, these are all my favorite foods!"
Yao Ling stared wide-eyed at the sumptuous meal on the table.
"Then eat more."
Ning Qi smiled and began to savor the delicious food on the table.
The two devoured the food on the table, while also enjoying the lively scene outside through the window.
The streets gradually became lively as people came and went.
"Master, it's probably because we're almost there that everyone's come out for a stroll."
Yao Ling looked at the people outside the window and said analytically.
"Then they might be just like us."
Ning Qi nodded, then continued to savor their delicious food.
"Master, if we go directly there like this, will the people of the Myriad Swords Sect welcome us?"
Yao Ling suddenly thought of something: "After all, we are the ones protecting their sect's disciples."
"You should at least treat us to something, right?"
"Probably."
Ning Qi thought for a moment, then continued, "When we get there, we'll know everything."
"Yeah, we need to save some room in our stomachs, otherwise we won't be able to eat when we get there!"
Yao Ling smiled smugly: "And that nine-tailed cat, I haven't said goodbye to him yet."
"He must miss me."
"You eat first, stop being so vain!"
Ning Qi rolled his eyes at him, then turned his gaze forward.
He saw several young men walking towards them.
The waiter stood by, bowing and scraping.
"Gentlemen, this place is already taken. Why don't you go downstairs?"
The man was getting closer, and Ning Qi could hear his voice.
"Get out of the way, we've got our eye on this place."
An arrogant voice rang out.
This once again caught Ning Qi's attention.
He quickly turned his attention to the people in front of him.
"Hey kid, we've got our eye on this place."
Let's go eat somewhere else.
One of the skinny guys came over and patted Ning Qi's dining table.
"Young master, I'm sorry to have troubled you."
The guy quickly came up to apologize.
"Go wait somewhere else, can't you see I'm eating?"
Ning Qi simply nodded to the waiter, then coldly turned to the person in front of him.
"Hmph, quite the temper."
"If you know what's good for you, you'd better leave now."
"Otherwise, there's no going back."
The man who had just been refuted by Ning Qi was furious.
Her eyes, like those of a venomous snake, stared coldly at Ning Qi.
"If you kneel down and beg me, I might let you sit down."
Ning Qi smiled and continued, "I can let you eat a few more bites of food."
"Boy, you are courting death!"
Enraged by Ning Qi, the man raised his fist, ready to smash it into Ning Qi's face.
"boom!"
However, before he could make a move, Yao Ling took action.
At this time, the medicinal spirits are all invisible.
No one can even see his existence.
After making the move, he caught the man off guard.
I stumbled and almost fell.
Fortunately, his companion stopped him from falling.
"You dare hit me! You're asking for it!"
The man came to his senses, covered his face, and rushed forward, ready to attack again.
"return!"
The arrogant playboy from before immediately called his friend to a stop.
Make him stop.
"Young Master Xue, let me teach him a lesson."
"This kid doesn't give you any face at all."
The man gritted his teeth, looking unwilling.
"Oh? You still want to save face, huh?"
Ning Qi smiled and said, "Then kneel down and I'll give it to you."
"Kid, I'll forgive you for being arrogant now."
"Let's get off the ship, let's see how arrogant you can still be!"
Xue Shao glanced at Ning Qi, then waved his hand: "Let's go downstairs and make do for a bit."
"Kid, you're finished."
"Wait!"
"..."
His friends all made threats against Ning Qi, and then left together.
"Young master, you've gotten yourself into trouble."
"This person is the young city lord of Yuncheng, named Xue Haoran."
"His father, Xue Lingtian, is the grandson of Xue Wannian, the second elder of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect."
Seeing that everyone had left, the waiter quickly said to Ning Qi, "Once you get off the giant ship, you'll be in Yuncheng. He definitely won't let you go!"
"Oh? So, it seems I've offended someone I can't afford to offend?"
Ning Qi frowned upon hearing this: "What is his strength?"
“Young Master, Xue Lingtian was already a True Immortal expert more than twenty years ago.”
"And his grandfather, Xue Wannian, was already a celestial master a hundred years ago."
The waiter looked at Ning Qi and shook his head helplessly: "You should have just given it to him."
"It's alright, I know people from the Ten Thousand Swords Sect too."
Ning Qi waved his hand and then said, "I'm not afraid of them coming to cause me trouble."
Originally, I thought this Second Elder would be something special.
If it's just a Celestial Immortal, then with my current strength, I can easily deal with him.
However, because of the abundant spiritual energy here, many people are also very powerful.
The second elder of a sect is a Celestial Immortal.
If this were placed in the True Martial Spirit Realm, it would be considered top-tier strength.
It seems that we still need to continue to improve everyone's overall strength.
Otherwise, it will be difficult to establish oneself in the future.
This is the core area leading to the Fourteenth Region, which is further inland than our True Martial Spirit Realm.
The further in you go, the stronger these people from the lower realms become.
Sooner or later, we will be able to go to more central areas.
Ning Qi thought to himself and began to make plans.
"Master, did I just cause you trouble?"
After hearing what the shopkeeper said, Yao Ling began to worry.
His eyes were filled with guilt.
I just thought it would be fun to teach these arrogant people a lesson.
Unexpectedly, this directly caused Ning Qi such a big problem.
"It's alright, we'll deal with whatever comes our way."
Ning Qi shook his head, then continued, "Haven't you heard about their strength?"
"They are no match for me at all."
"But they are all people from the Ten Thousand Swords Sect."
"We haven't even gone there yet, and we've already offended someone."
"If we go, won't that just cause trouble for Miss Xu?"
Yao Ling began to analyze the situation seriously.
There's always a way out.
"You don't need to worry."
Ning Qi rubbed his little head: "Eat."
"I hope everything is alright."
Yao Ling murmured something, then continued to feast.
Ning Qi, however, turned his attention downstairs.
He could feel the malice coming from below.
Since we've already offended them, let's just wait and see what happens.
Thinking about it here won't solve the problem.
After a moment's thought, he and Yao Ling continued to feast heartily.
The two of them quickly forgot about it.
By the time they returned to their inn, it was already dark.
"Master, we'll arrive tomorrow. Hopefully, there won't be any trouble."
At this moment, Yao Ling recalled what had happened before and couldn't help but show a worried expression.
"Everything will be alright, just relax!"
After comforting him, Ning Qi returned to bed to rest. "Master," he said, "I think we should spend more spirit stones with the servants to rent a spacious room."
Yao Ling felt uneasy, so she said...
"Oh?"
Upon hearing his words, Ning Qi sat up.
"How about it?"
Yao Ling looked at Ning Qi.
We'll wait for him to make a decision.
"Since you've put it that way, I'll listen to you this once!"
Ning Qi thought for a moment, then got up and went outside.
I happened to see a guy passing by.
Do you still have any Sumeru-style side rooms here?
Ning Qi asked directly.
"Young master, we have accommodations available! Would you like to stay here?"
The waiter became interested when he asked the question and quickly inquired.
"Yes, I want to change rooms, this one is too noisy!"
Ning Qi nodded, then asked his companion to lead the way.
"Alright, young master, this way please!"
The man agreed and began to lead Ning Qi the way.
Soon, he led Ning Qi to the door of a side room upstairs.
The shopkeeper took out the jade pendant, activated it, and successfully opened the door.
"Young master, please."
Then he let Ning Qi in.
"it is good!"
Ning Qi nodded and then followed him inside.
The man then led him to open another door.
Ning Qi looked up and saw that there was a small courtyard inside the door.
Clearly, this is the Sumeru Room.
"Young master, this is the Sumeru Courtyard."
"There are three rooms, but the young master probably won't need them."
"This jade pendant can be activated."
"You can come out anytime!"
The shopkeeper handed the jade pendant to Ning Qi and said with a smile, "We'll arrive in Yuncheng tomorrow afternoon."
"Then you can leave directly, young master!"
"it is good!"
"Can I leave directly from here without going through the deck again?"
After listening to the waiter's words, Ning Qi suddenly thought of something.
If that's the case, perhaps we can avoid trouble.
As long as we avoid the Xue family, everything will be fine.
"Yes, but you need to activate the jade pendant first, and then go to this door to activate it."
"If we go out, we'll be heading towards the city."
"This can help avoid crowding with these people."
The shopkeeper pointed to another door in the courtyard and said to Ning Qi, "This one will do. Whoever goes out will go directly to the city."
"However, it also requires more spirit stones to activate, so these young masters can do as much as they can afford."
"Okay, thank you."
Ning Qi thanked him.
"Young master, then I shall take my leave now."
The man clasped his hands in a fist salute, then hurriedly left.
"Master, this is good. We can leave directly and avoid that bastard."
"Then you won't have to worry about getting into trouble."
Yao Ling was also very happy, jumping up and down as she spoke.
"Hmm, that's not bad either."
Ning Qi smiled, then looked at the two doors: "One leads out to the vicinity of the giant ship, while the other leads into the city."
"That means we need to get more spirit stones so we can go into the city too."
"Yes, Master!"
Yao Ling nodded and said with a smile, "Once we get there, we'll see how to get to the Myriad Swords Sect!"
"Well, before that, I'd like to go to an auction!"
Ning Qi suddenly thought of something and continued.
"Huh? What are you going there for?"
Upon hearing this, Yao Ling asked, puzzled.
“Miss Xu has a master. We’re going to visit her, so we should at least make her look good.”
"If we give her master a gift then, wouldn't that show our sincerity?"
Ning Qi revealed a smug look, and then said, "In that case, our trip has not been in vain."
"Yes, the master is very thoughtful."
Yao Ling started flattering him.
"Alright, time to rest."
Ning Qi stretched, then spotted a private room and led Yao Ling inside.
Upon entering, I smelled a faint fragrance.
"smell good!"
Yao Ling revealed a look of delight: "This inn is really thoughtful. The more spirit stones you spend, the more exquisite it becomes."
"Okay, never mind all that, let's get ready to rest."
Ning Qi nodded, showing little interest in these matters.
After saying that, I lay down on the bed and prepared to rest.
Yao Ling then lay down beside his pillow.
The two quickly fell asleep.
While they slept, in a cabin on the giant ship...
Several people were discussing something.
"Have you found out where that bastard is staying today?"
The person sitting in the main seat was Xue Haoran.
Sitting at the table were his friends.
At this moment, everyone wore a solemn expression.
"Young Master Xue, we've found one."
"The assassin has already been purchased from the ship's cabin."
"We can take action at any time."
The person who had been attacked by the medicine spirit earlier said with a smile, "They are definitely top-notch experts who won't leave any trace."
"Hmph, so what if I stay?"
Xue Haoran snorted coldly and then said, "Go and make the arrangements to take care of this kid."
"I will not even give him a chance to disembark."
"Young Master Xue, I'll make the arrangements right away!"
Upon hearing this, the man prepared to leave.
"Liu happy".
Xue Haoran suddenly called out to him again: "Be careful, just wait for their news, don't get involved."
"That kid, I feel he's pretty tough. Don't provoke him. If he finds you, you're finished."
"Don't worry, Young Master Xue, I know what I'm doing, nothing will happen!"
Liu happy nodded, revealing a determined look: "Tonight, we will definitely keep him here forever."
"Okay, go ahead!"
Xue Haoran nodded, signaling him to leave.
"Yes, Young Master Xue!"
After Liu happy agreed, he hurriedly left.
A few people stayed behind with Xue Haoran.
"Young Master Xue, this Liu happy is ambitious but arrogant. Aren't you afraid something bad will happen if you let him go?"
"Yeah, that kid is more trouble than he's worth."
"..."
After Liu happy left, the group started complaining.
They all looked worried.
"He can handle this little thing."
"However, if he doesn't listen to me and insists on following the assassin, he'll probably get a lesson from that kid."
Xue Haoran shook his head and sighed.
"Young Master Xue, wouldn't that risk exposure?"
"Yes, why don't we go and bring Liu happy back?"
"..."
The group continued to persuade them.
"Hmph, I'm going to let him go."
"I have already secretly sent people."
"Once Liu happy takes action, this matter will have nothing to do with me anymore."
"Even if that bastard can't kill Liu happy, I won't let Liu happy live."
Xue Haoran wore a smug look on his face and said with a smile, "Now, who would guess that it was me?"
"After all, it was Liu happy who had the conflict with that kid, not me!" (End of Chapter)
