find chess

Chapter 17

Sitting in the room, Ling Jiuyao saw through the window that it was getting dark outside, and then looked at the chessboard on the table. After making sure that Xiaobai had fallen asleep, he quietly pushed the door and walked out.

He stopped in the corridor and glanced back, Qi Yu's room was pitch black, probably fell asleep with the light turned on.

Ling Jiuyao breathed a sigh of relief, and walked towards the back mountain by the moonlight.

In the room, Qi Yu was sitting on the bed, the moonlight only illuminated half of his face, the other side was hidden in the darkness, his eyes blended with the night.

"coming?"

The head of the sect stood beside a pool of water and asked him when he came over.

Ling Jiuyao nodded, and walked to the head to check the bottom of the water.

A black shadow faintly appeared in the water, entangled together, shaped like a big python.

"After receiving your previous message, you said that you wanted to come to the master to ask something, but you couldn't reveal your real purpose, so you came up with a reason for the sword test meeting," the headmaster turned and looked at him. , "You can ask now."

Ling Jiuyao squatted on the ground, dialed the water in the pool with his hands, and said, "Senior Qinglong is still asleep, I'm afraid it's not appropriate for me to interrupt like this rashly."

The headmaster smiled and shook his head: "You, you, duplicity, but you played really well."

Ling Jiuyao laughed, apologized to the pool in a low voice, and then slapped the water with his palm, waking up the green dragon at the bottom of the pool.

The green dragon slowly opened his eyes, his eyes were like blades with a cold light, making people feel frightened when they saw it.

But Ling Jiuyao was not among these people.

Ling Jiuyao smiled and said, "Senior Qinglong, long time no see."

Qinglong stirred the water surface irritably, raised his head slowly, and was about to growl to express his impatience. Seeing this, Ling Jiuyao hurriedly made a silent gesture and said, "Senior, don't make a sound."

Qinglong held back the roar.

"What do you want from me?" Qinglong asked, looking at him with his beard fluttering in the air.

Ling Jiuyao smiled and said, "I know you've been disturbed in your dreams, and you feel a little upset, but I really have something important to ask you."

"So you still ask?"

"Ask," Ling Jiuyao hurriedly said, "Wait a minute, let me take out the things first."

After Ling Jiuyao finished speaking, he took out the pearl that Nanling cried out from the copper coin.

"Do you recognize the aura above?"

This green dragon has lived for thousands of years. It originally belonged to the Shenlong clan. Later, it met the founder of the Qingxiao Sword Sect in the mortal world, and the two founded the Qingxiao Sword Sect together.

The founder of the mountain died in a battle with the Demon Realm. Qinglong could have returned to the Shenlong clan, but he stayed and guarded the Qingxiao Sword Sect.

Ling Jiuyao came here this time just to try his luck and see if this old antique has any clues.

The green dragon was disturbed by him, and his eyes were already showing impatience, but when he saw the pearl, his pupils dilated suddenly, and with a long roar, he flew up into the sky with his tail swinging.

Ling Jiuyao looked at the crazy Qinglong, a little messy.

It seems that this senior not only knows this breath, but is also easily stimulated by it.

Qinglong's eyes were scarlet, glaring at the two in front of him.

The head of the sect was shocked: "Master has never lost control, what happened today?"

As soon as the words fell, Longwei swept towards him, and Ling Jiuyao hurriedly pulled him over.

The head of the sect stood still and nodded at him, and flew to wake up his master.

Ling Jiuyao wanted to go together, but suddenly stopped.

If he stepped forward now, he would definitely use his spiritual power, then Xiao Bai on the chessboard would definitely wake up, and his actions would be completely exposed.

As for the spiritual power Qi Yu gave him, he couldn't use it.

Ling Jiuyao was a little anxious, but the head of the sect was only a few hundred years old after all, how could he be the opponent of Qinglong who had lived for thousands of years, and seeing that he was about to lose the wind, Ling Jiuyao couldn't stand by and watch any longer.

While anxious, he suddenly felt a wave of spiritual power in his soul, and a power that did not belong to Xiao Bai and Qi Yu suddenly began to surge.

Ling Jiuyao didn't care about the source of this spiritual power, gritted his teeth and summoned Yutian, flew to the side of the master, and blocked all the attacks of Qinglong with a sword.

At the moment when one person and one dragon collided, the buildings next to them were smashed to pieces by the huge impact.

Ling Jiuyao spat out a mouthful of blood, unable to hold on.

This third kind of spiritual power comes and goes quickly, and it can only be used for short-term bursts. After losing the spiritual power, he can't continue to float in the air.

Ling Jiuyao flickered and fell from the air.

Hearing the wind howling in his ear, he thought that he would fall to the ground and be smashed to pieces, he was hesitating whether to use Xiao Bai's spiritual power to perform a sky-defending technique, but unexpectedly he fell into the embrace of someone.

Listening to the heartbeat in the man's chest, Ling Jiuyao felt inexplicably relieved.

"Qi Yu." He guessed who the other party was.

Qi Yu didn't reply.

With a cold face, he gently put Ling Jiuyao down after landing. Ling Jiuyao stood still and saw Qi Yu staring at the quiet Qinglong.

Ling Jiuyao, who guessed what Qi Yu meant, hurriedly stopped him: "Don't kill him."

Qi Yu said nothing, turned and looked at him.

At this time, Qi Yu's eyes were cold and cold that Ling Jiuyao had never seen before, which surprised him.

Qi Yu looked at Ling Jiuyao, to be precise, at the blood on the corner of his mouth.

He stretched out his hand, and Ling Jiuyao subconsciously wanted to back away, but resisted the urge forcefully, and let Qi Yu gently wipe away the blood from the corner of his mouth.

"Ah Yao," Qi Yu said in a hoarse voice, "it's late at night, why don't you sleep?"

Ling Jiuyao's eyelids twitched, knowing that Qi Yu meant why he appeared here.

He wanted to make up a reason to fool him, but he couldn't open his mouth to Qi Yu's dark eyes.

"I'm here to ask something." Ling Jiuyao calmed down and replied after consideration.

Qi Yu finally showed his first smile since seeing Ling Jiuyao tonight: "Have you finished asking?"

The voice was gentle, the same as usual.

Ling Jiuyao felt an unprecedented sense of oppression from Qi Yu, but this feeling was taken back by Qi Yu in just a moment.

"Ah Yao, you are not good." Qi Yu's smile lasted only for a while, and then he said with a blank expression.

Ling Jiuyao frowned when he heard this sentence, and was about to refute his incomprehensible idea, another mouthful of blood gushed out from his mouth.

Seeing this, Qi Yu hurriedly stepped forward to support him, but her face was still gloomy.

Ling Jiuyao wiped the blood with his sleeve, and looked up at Qinglong.After recuperating, the head next to him didn't seem to be injured, which reassured him a lot.

"Child," Qinglong looked at him with a trace of struggle in his eyes, "I can't tell you what you asked."

"Why?"

"Don't ask." Qinglong turned around slowly and sank to the bottom of the water.

The moment he turned around, Qinglong glanced at Qi Yu.

That look was full of fear.

Ling Jiuyao stood up straight and said to the head, "Senior, I'm sorry."

The headmaster looked at him with a smile: "It's okay."

Then he looked at the collapsed buildings around him, and said with a smile, "It should be Elder Discipline that you are sorry."

A plaque with the words "Temple of Discipline" was placed firmly among the ruins.

Ling Jiuyao: "..."

He coughed twice and asked, "Why did the Discipline Hall move here?"

The head still smiled and said: "The Discipline Hall collapsed before, and the younger brother thought that there would be no more accidents if it was built next to the ancestor. I didn't expect..."

"But don't worry," the headmaster added, "I asked the disciples in the hall to leave before you came here tonight, and there is no one inside."

Ling Jiuyao nodded and said goodbye.

On the way back, Qi Yu kept supporting him, and Ling Jiuyao stayed with him, feeling inexplicably guilty.

He glanced at Qi Yu out of the corner of his eye, and found that this person seemed to be angry?

"Qi Yu."

"Ok?"

"……Thanks."

Other than that, he couldn't think of anything else to say.

"Ah Yao," Qi Yu called him this time, "why don't you use Yukong?"

Ling Jiuyao didn't answer. He can't say that he doesn't want to be discovered by you and Xiaobai with his spiritual power, right?

Qi Yu looked at him steadily: "If I don't arrive today..."

"Don't worry," Ling Jiuyao interrupted him, "I won't be so stupid as to die."

The big deal is to let Xiaobai find out.

... So this person is angry at him for not caring for himself?

Probably seeing Ling Jiuyao's concerns, Qi Yu said: "You can obviously use mine."

"I don't want to be discovered by you either." Ling Jiuyao said this and looked up at him.

Qi Yu was taken aback for a moment, then smiled wryly: "You can actually trust me, I really won't harm you."

Ling Jiuyao understood the meaning of his words, saw the sincerity and expectation in Qi Yu's eyes, and suddenly had the urge to believe him, and finally forcibly endured it.

"Sorry." He whispered.

He couldn't trust anyone but himself.

Qi Yu gave a low laugh and said, "It's all right."

Ling Jiuyao wanted to say something more, but his chest suddenly hurt and he coughed violently.

Qi Yu hurriedly input spiritual power to help him adjust his breath, Ling Jiuyao waved his hand to indicate that he was fine.

The spiritual power I used just now had quite a side effect.

Speaking of which, where does this spiritual power come from? He is a mortal, how could he have spiritual power?

In the process of helping him adjust his breath, Qi Yu naturally discovered the third spiritual power left on Ling Jiuyao's body, and couldn't help frowning.

It doesn't belong to Xingqi, nor does it belong to him, it belongs to Ling Jiuyao himself.

If he is allowed to use his spiritual power again, it will only stimulate his consciousness and restore his memory.

Qi Yu thought for a while, and said: "The spiritual power in your body should be your soul has been nourished by spiritual power for a long time, so you also have a little power, which was used in that situation just now."

"But because you are a mortal, A Yao, using your spiritual power will hurt you." Qi Yu continued.

He didn't want to lie to A Yao either, but he had no choice.

Maybe Ah Yao will remember it sooner or later, but how long can he hide it now?

Ling Jiuyao nodded, not sure if he believed it or not.

He stopped and pointed to the door: "I'm going in, you should rest early."

Qi Yu replied with a smile, "Okay."

Ling Jiuyao pushed open the door, and heard a voice before standing still.

"came back?"

Ling Jiuyao looked up and saw Xiaobai sitting on the chessboard staring at him deeply.

It's broken, how could I forget this uncle.

But Qi Yu, who sent Ling Jiuyao back, did not return to his room, but turned on his toes to another place.

The clear ringing of the bell echoed in the mountains, and Qi Yu came step by step to the pool where the green dragon lived just now.

Qinglong opened his eyes, and his body emerged from the water.

"You're here?" Qinglong said in a trembling voice.

Qi Yu looked at him and said coldly: "What did he ask you just now?"

Qinglong put the pearl dropped by Ling Jiuyao in front of Qi Yu: "He took this and asked me if I recognized the aura above it."

When Qi Yu saw this thing, he immediately thought of the shark people in Nanminghai, and knew that Ling Jiuyao was investigating those black fog people.

"So, you recognize it?"

Qinglong nodded.

"What is the breath above?" Qi Yu continued to ask.

Qinglong sighed slightly, although he was afraid of Qi Yu, he still made up his mind to speak: "Sorry, I can't tell you."

Qi Yu raised his eyebrows: "Why?"

Qinglong looked up at the sky: "This is a taboo that cannot be mentioned."

"So if you want to know, you'd better look it up yourself."

Qi Yu stared at him without saying a word.

Qinglong smiled wryly, and said: "I beg you, don't ask me any more, just spare my life."

"Okay." Qi Yu nodded and turned to leave.

"By the way," he suddenly remembered something, "You seemed to have hurt him just now."

Qinglong's pupils shrank suddenly.

"Do I have to get something back from you?"

Qinglong trembled, with a look of fear on his face.

Qi Yu smiled viciously: "I lied to you."

In the next moment, one of his heart-protecting dragon scales was pulled out.
