Qin Dynasty: Starting with a free Fire Kirin Sword

"However, Dongjun, your disguise skills are unparalleled. Even the strict detection mechanisms in the Heavenly Prison can be easily deceived."

"So, on what basis can Lin Qi suspect you?"

Yan Fei shook her head, indicating that she did not know: "Actually, I was indeed a little surprised when I first saw Lin Qi in the prison."

Yanfei had seen countless heroes and outstanding figures, such as Han Fei, Yan Dan, and other talented men and women from the six kingdoms, but none of them could surpass Lin Qi in appearance.

Lin Qi's appearance was indeed perfect.

In terms of beauty, even Yan Fei could not resist that attraction.

However, she is not a woman who only superficially pursues appearance; she also values ​​inner qualities.

Changing the subject, Yanfei said:

"Even if my momentary lapse in composure caught his attention, at most he would only suspect that there was something wrong with Xiao Li, who delivered food to Han Fei."

"But why is Lin Qi able to directly focus on me?" Yan Fei frowned slightly, feeling deeply puzzled.

She still couldn't understand how Lin Qi could spot her at a glance.

After a moment's thought, the Grand Master of Fate chuckled and said, "Or perhaps he really did come to pay his respects to the Lord of the East?"

"Your beauty is unparalleled in the world; no one can help but be captivated by it."

Upon hearing this, Consort Yan's expression faltered slightly.

Why are you captivated by me, why have you come here for me?

If it were before or after today, perhaps she wouldn't have suspected anything.

however……

He had just passed by Lin Qi in the prison, and less than half an hour later he came to pay his respects. How could this not arouse suspicion?

All of this is just too much of a coincidence!

Yan Fei shook her head and murmured again, "This is too much of a coincidence!"

"Furthermore, do you think a man as impeccable as Lin Qi would lack women who admire him?"

The High Priestess was taken aback, and opened her mouth to speak but found it difficult to refute.

Indeed, even the moment she saw Lin Qi, she couldn't help but be moved by him.

You should know that she has always been known for her ruthlessness and her heart of stone.

After a moment of silence, the High Priestess said softly, "Who knows?"

"But I've heard that Lin Qi is a man of high moral character."

"Perhaps he has a special affection for only Lord Dongjun?"

Yan Fei looked surprised: "???"

Grand Master of Fate, aren't you focusing on the wrong thing?

She glared at the High Priestess, signaling that she should take this more seriously.

Sensing Yanfei's gaze, the Grand Master of Fate immediately composed himself, regaining his solemnity, and asked, "Have you completed the task entrusted to you by the leader?"

Hearing this, Yan Fei nodded gently: "Han Fei will surely die at midnight tomorrow!"

The Grand Master of Fate responded with an affirmative nod, "My strength is still insufficient; I am not even capable of breaking into the Heavenly Prison."

She was originally supposed to be the one to carry out the Six Soul Curse.

However, the prison is heavily guarded and teems with top experts, so there is a risk of being exposed during operations.

Therefore, to be on the safe side, Yanfei ultimately took action herself.

Yan Fei ignored Da Siming's words, a resolute glint in her eyes, and said, "The secret of the Azure Dragon Seven Constellations should only be known to the Yin Yang School and the Ji Family."

"Han Fei already knows too much!"

At this point, a cold glint appeared in her eyes, filled with murderous intent.

"However, the bronze box that Han Fei was holding has now disappeared."

The Azure Dragon's Seven Mansions, the Seven Star Chamber, the Seven Bronze Boxes... they are all closely related.

Intelligence from the Yin-Yang School indicates that Han Fei possesses one of them.

Moreover, it seems it is about to reveal itself.

Therefore, the Yin-Yang School had to take action against Han Fei!

Whether or not they could seize the bronze box from Han Fei was not the most important thing.

In any case, they have already begun their action plan.

If successful, it will help the Qin Emperor unify the world, at which time the seven stars will be united, and the secret of the Azure Dragon's seven constellations will finally be revealed.

"The Ji family..."

Upon hearing these two words, the Great Master of Fate's eyes lit up, but he quickly returned to normal.

Having been taken in by the Yin-Yang School since childhood, out of gratitude, he was willing to sacrifice his own life.

Whether she was loyal to the Yin-Yang School or the Ji Family, it made no difference to her.

……

A thin mist hung over the courtyard.

In the morning light, Lin Qi stood with his eyes closed under the big willow tree, his posture as upright as a pine tree.

He held the crimson Fire Scale Sword in his hand.

Soon after, his eyes snapped open, his gaze sharp as the stars.

At the same time, the Fire Kirin Sword slashed out like lightning.

"puff"--

The large tree in front of us was split in two from top to bottom.

Strangely, although the tree was broken into two pieces, it did not fall down or even sway.

All of this demonstrates that Lin Qi's control over the power of that sword strike was absolutely masterful.

"The fifth sword technique has been successfully mastered!"

Lin Qi sheathed the Fire Kirin Sword, a satisfied smile appearing on his lips.

Then, a thought flashed through his mind, and he pondered to himself:

"Start the daily login task!"

After reciting it in his heart,

"Ding!"

Immediately, a crisp sound entered my ears.

"Successfully completed daily login and received the reward: Bronze Statue Skill level increased to +1!"

"Complete daily login to receive the following reward: Asuka Wataru's level increases by one!"

"Login task successfully completed. Received: Meditation skill upgraded to **!"

The three consecutive sounds caused Lin Qi's eyebrows to lift slightly and a smile to bloom on his lips.

Then, he began to check his personal information panel:

Main character: Lin Qi

【Age: 18】

[Charm: 50]

Physical Aptitude: 8 (Top Genius)

[Cultivation Realm: Grandmaster Level 2]

【Main Skill 1: Holy Spirit Sword Technique - Fifth Form, Jade Heart Sutra - Fourth Level】

[Main Skill 2: Bronze Statue Skill maxed out, Flying Bird Crossing at the highest level, Meditation Technique level 3]

[Equipment: Fire Scale Sword]

Through tireless efforts, the Holy Spirit Sword Technique made significant progress, successfully reaching the fifth form; and the Jade Heart Method, which he had begun practicing the previous night, advanced to the fourth level after just one night of practice.

Undeniably, his top-tier genius level of physical aptitude of 8 makes his learning ability and comprehension of skills far surpass those of others.

"The Bronze Statue Skill and Flying Bird Crossing have once again been upgraded to the maximum level in the login rewards."

"If you want to continue to improve, you can only reach a higher level through your own cultivation."

Nevertheless, Lin Qi still felt quite pleased with this situation.

At this moment, the Bronze Statue Technique can withstand all attacks from those with innate talent; and once it breaks through again and reaches a higher level, it will be able to withstand even a master-level opponent.

Similarly, after breaking through, Asuka Wataru will have an overwhelming advantage in battles at the Grandmaster level.

"Take a shower first, then head to the Black Dragon Platform!"

After a period of arduous training, Lin Qi was covered in sweat, so he went to the bathroom to wash up and change his clothes.

At exactly eight o'clock in the morning,

Lin Qi arrived at the Black Dragon Platform headquarters on time.

But upon arriving at the site, I found the atmosphere at headquarters to be unusually somber.

He returned to his office area and summoned a subordinate to ask why things had turned out this way.

The latter replied, "My lord, we received intelligence today that Young Master Han Fei has unfortunately perished!"

Despite having a premonition, Lin Qi remained calm and composed upon hearing the news, showing no signs of surprise or shock.

In his view, this did not seem like a shocking thing—even if Han Fei had really passed away, there was no direct connection between him and the Black Dragon platform.

What puzzled Lin Qi even more was, "Even so, this is not enough to justify such a serious atmosphere at the Black Dragon Platform headquarters, is it?"

So he pressed further, "Even if Han Fei is dead, what does it have to do with us?" Logically speaking, someone saw Han Fei meeting with Li Si and Yao Jia yesterday, and they should have reported this to the ancestral dragon.

Therefore, Han Fei's untimely death should not be considered a major emergency.

Hearing this,

The subordinate immediately explained, "The latest intelligence indicates that during court today, Zhao Gao, the Grand Commander of the Central Army, spoke disparagingly of our Black Dragon Platform."

They accused us of negligence in guarding the Heavenly Prison, which allowed the enemy to infiltrate it and cause the death of Young Master Han.

Furthermore, he advised the emperor to weaken the Black Dragon Platform's power! Although the emperor did not accept Zhao Gao's suggestion, he still strictly ordered the officials to reorganize and strengthen the platform's responsibilities.

At this point, Lin Qi had a clear understanding of the situation—whenever he had the chance, Zhao Gao was always eager to deal with the Black Dragon Platform, and now he was even more ruthless.

At the same time, guarding the Heavenly Prison happened to be within his purview, and Zhao Gao's actions were clearly intended to slander him.

"You go back first, I need to talk to the commander," Lin Qi said.

Lin Qi waved for his men to leave.

After his men left, he walked towards Yao Jia's direction.

Soon,

He stepped into the hall of command.

At this moment, Yao Jia's expression was calm and serious as he focused on the tasks at hand.

Upon hearing the sound, Yao Jia looked up and saw Lin Qi arrive; his eyes immediately lit up.

He said with a slightly excited tone, "Lin Qi, you've come at the perfect time. I was just about to discuss something with you."

As he spoke, he picked up an object covered with a black cloth from one side.

He placed the item on the table and looked at Lin Qi, explaining, "This is for you; it's a gift from Han Fei!"

"Was it a gift from Han Fei?"

Lin Qi was taken aback, his brows furrowing.

He then stepped closer and flicked his wrist, releasing a surge of internal energy.

The black package shattered instantly, revealing its contents.

It was an ancient sword, its entire body a mix of blue and black, and it appeared to be covered in scars.

The sword blade is split into several pieces, and the hilt is carved with ferocious beast-shaped patterns.

Upon seeing the sword, a glint of light flashed in Lin Qi's eyes.

"The Reverse Scale Sword!"

That's right, the sword in front of us is Han Fei's sword - the Reverse Scale Sword.

"Why did Han Fei give me his Reverse Scale Sword?"

Without directly touching the sword, Lin Qixian looked at Yao Jia with a puzzled expression and asked.

Yao Jia shook his head and replied, "I still wish to inquire about this matter from you."

What exactly did you discuss with Han Fei yesterday? Why did he decide to entrust this sword to you?

Recalling yesterday's events, Lin Qi frowned.

In fact, the two didn't talk much yesterday.

At that time, Han Fei wanted to reveal some secrets about the Seven Mansions of the Azure Dragon to him, but he avoided talking about it.

Only at the very end did he utter a single, cryptic remark.

After a moment's thought, Lin Qi shook his head and replied, "We didn't discuss anything substantial, and I don't know why he gave me this sword."

Seeing this, Yao Jia did not pursue the matter further.

Instead, he comforted her, saying, "You don't need to worry about this."

"Because the sword spirit was destroyed by some unknown force that night, it is now just like an ordinary sword."

"To be precise, it has become a useless piece of equipment."

"Was it destroyed along with the sword spirit?"

Lin Qi's eyes flickered, showing some shock.

It's important to know that the sword spirit within the Reverse Scale Sword is an extremely powerful being.

Even Tianze in "The Legend of Qin" cannot match him.
