Originated from mountains and seas, life never ends

Chapter 180: Deep and Mysterious Realm

Qin Xiao finished his shower quickly and walked out of the bathroom with a bath towel half wrapped around his body. He was stunned when he saw Qiongqi who had appeared on the bed out of nowhere.

Qiongqi glanced at him lazily and said nothing. Qin Xiao said nothing and sat back on the bed to continue fiddling with the scroll.

Thinking of the method Qin Xiuyun said, Qin Xiao slowly exerted force and injected Qi into the scroll. The scroll gradually emitted light, but it did not open.

Perhaps the injected Qi was not enough, Qin Xiao thought, and did not stop. It was not until he was almost exhausted that a hint of fluorescence finally emerged and unfolded.

Just as Qin Xiuyun said, the fluorescence penetrated into his brain and was displayed on the soul sea. Qin Xiao closed his eyes and meditated, then returned to the soul sea. He looked at the golden words on the sea with a complicated expression.

He shouldn't have been able to understand it, but for some reason, he had no problem understanding the meaning of the words.

It is true that this technique is of thunder attribute. It is about condensing thunder into shapes, with numerous variations.

Qin Xiao had already mastered the ability to condense lightning into the desired shape before this, so he took a quick look and picked out some key points.

Finally, the focus is on "rain".

Qin Xiao's eyes narrowed slightly, and he sat cross-legged in the soul sea, studying it carefully.

The skills given by Qin Xiuyun are still useful, at least Qin Xiao can learn a lot from them.

……

"Hey, don't be discouraged. It's just a loss, right? You can win it back next time."

In the restaurant, Mo Hanshang held the wine glass and comforted with a smile.

"I'm not discouraged." Liu Qingfeng on the opposite side said helplessly. Looking at Qin Jinyi who was also smiling helplessly beside Mo Hanshang, he suddenly felt a sense of bitterness for the same fate.

"Are you just looking for an excuse to drink?" Bai Shuheng ruthlessly exposed Mo Hanshang's true intention.

"How is it possible?!" Mo Hanshang was deeply hurt. "Do you miss me so much?"

"This is the truth, okay?" Bai Shuheng said unhappily.

Qin Jinyi was watching the two people bickering and laughing when he caught a glimpse of people walking on the street. He paused and turned to look over.

Qin Xiao was seen standing in front of a stall selling flower hairpins, talking to Mo Hanshang's younger brother.

"Eh? Isn't that your brother?"

Qin Jinyi had been silent for less than two seconds when Mo Hanshang put his arm on his shoulder and came over to look down with him.

"Are you drunk?" Qin Jinyi smelled a faint smell of alcohol, frowned slightly, and reminded, "Your brother is here too."

"Oh oh..." Mo Hanshang nodded, narrowed his eyes slightly, but did not answer his first question.

"Look, how beautiful it is." Mo Hanyu inserted the hairpin on Qin Xiao's head, smiling, and his fingers bloomed like petals, wrapping the hairpin in the middle.

"Stop it." Qin Xiao waved his hand away, as if he was somewhat helpless, and took off the hairpin, "Where are Yin Xihui and the others?"

"Tian Miao passed by Yihua Liquor Store and was curious to try it." Mo Hanyu pointed in a direction and took the hairpin, "I'll be here in a while - what's wrong? I think it suits you very well."

Mo Hanyu said as he tried to insert the hairpin into Qin Xiao's head again.

"No." Qin Xiao leaned back to avoid it, his eyes cold, "If you like it, wear it yourself."

"Really..." Seeing this, Mo Hanyu pursed his lips slightly. He could only reluctantly withdraw his hand and turned to ask the stall owner to buy the hairpin.

"It's obviously very beautiful." Mo Hanyu muttered and put it away.

Qin Xiao could tell at a glance that he had not given up yet, so he shook his head helplessly. Just as he was about to say something, he felt a chill behind him. His eyes became sharp and he turned to look at him.

Yu Yunhao was seen walking towards them not far away. He looked at Qin Xiao and not only did he not stop, but he quickened his pace.

Looking at Yu Yunhao who was coming at him aggressively, Qin Xiao frowned slightly, with confusion in his eyes.

He didn't know what he wanted to do.

"Where is that beast? Where is it?" Yu Yunhao stood in front of Qin Xiao. He was so tall that he temporarily blocked out the sun above his head.

"What?" Mo Hanyu was stunned and didn't know what he was talking about for a moment.

Qin Xiao did react, but he shook his head and gave the same answer as Mo Hanyu: "What beast? I don't understand what you are talking about."

"Stop pretending." Yu Yunhao grabbed his collar and easily pulled him off the ground, "You know what I'm talking about."

"Let him go!" Mo Hanyu saw this and quickly grabbed his arm, saying sternly, "We don't know what you are talking about. If you do this again, I will be rude!"

"So what if you're rude?" Yu Yunhao gave him a cold look, obviously not taking Mo Hanyu's threat seriously.

"Let go." Qin Xiao held his hands in front of his chest. He was not flustered by his sudden action. His eyes were calm.

Yu Yunhao clenched his collar and stared at Qin Xiao, but he did not see the scene he imagined. The child was not scared by this. He gritted his teeth and pushed Qin Xiao hard when he let go, knocking him to the ground.

Mo Hanyu quickly caught Qin Xiao's fallen body and helped him steady himself.

Qin Xiao calmly steadied his pace, patted the clothes on his chest, and frowned when he saw wrinkles on the collar.

"Where is the monster?" Yu Yunhao lowered his voice and asked again.

Mo Hanyu already knew what he was asking, but he looked at Qin Xiao and said nothing.

"I'll say it again." Qin Xiao raised his eyes, his gaze slowly turning cold, "I don't know."

"That's mine! I raised it since I was a child. Why do you want to take it away from me?" Yu Yunhao's voice became a little higher and his emotions were a little out of control.

Qin Xiao was puzzled: "If it's so important to you, just go find it. Why are you telling me?"

"You are in the same group with Qiu Puyue, aren't you?" Yu Yunhao clenched his fists, his voice filled with anger, "Give my beast back. I know it's with you."

"You are such a weird person." Qin Xiao lost his patience, turned around and said word by word, "You said your magic beast was lost. And I remember that before the game, I gave each of you three bracelets, requiring your magic beast to wear them at all times to ensure that the magic trainer can know the location of his magic beast at any time."

"If the monster does not have a bracelet, it is considered an ownerless beast and can be hunted at will if the situation arises."

Upon hearing this, Yu Yunhao's pupils trembled slightly, and he seemed a little guilty, and his aura weakened.

"The bracelet can only be removed by the demon tamer himself. Don't you think it's ridiculous that you ask me the location of your demon beast now?" Qin Xiao sneered, "You don't even know the location of your demon beast, and you're asking me?"

"I... I was just angry at the time. I went to look for it not long after. You took it away!" Although Yu Yunhao's momentum was weakened a bit, his voice was much louder as if he was pretending to be loud.

"Everything requires evidence." Qin Xiao said coldly, "You think we kidnapped your monster, but where is the evidence?"

"You——" Yu Yunhao stared, silent for a moment, and then angrily said, "Don't change the subject, where did you hide my magic beast?"

Qin Xiao closed his eyes, becoming more and more impatient. He didn't want to get entangled with him and was about to turn around and leave, but was pulled back again.

"Don't leave! How can you be so rude, kid?" Yu Yunhao grabbed his shoulders, "I haven't even finished my words."

"You haven't finished speaking. I've heard enough." Qin Xiao said coldly, "Let go."

"...Do you know how much effort I put into cultivating that monster? You can't afford the price. Tell me to take me to find it, otherwise don't even think about leaving." Yu Yunhao persisted.

"You still want to detain me?" Qin Xiao was so angry that he almost laughed.

"Say it again, let go of your hand." Qin Xiao's eyes were cold, like two sharp swords pointing directly at Yu Yunhao.

"How can you be so unreasonable, kid?" Yu Yunhao was furious. "You were the ones who stole my magic beast. I just wanted to take back what belongs to me, but you refused. And you still spoke harshly to me. Is this what your mother taught you?"

Hearing him talk about his mother, Qin Xiao's face became even gloomier. He suddenly shook off his hand, turned around and was about to leave.

"You are a bastard who was born by a mother but not raised by her."

The curse was very soft, but for someone with sharp ears and eyes like Qin Xiao, he could hear it quite clearly.

Qin Xiao paused. For some reason, many memories flashed through his mind, the deepest of which was the smile his mother gave him.

The smile is gentle and peaceful, like a gentle spring breeze blowing by.

But Qin Xiao suddenly felt a surge of anger in his heart, and his aura suddenly became cold and sharp. He didn't say anything, but Mo Hanyu beside him felt that something was wrong with him.

Mo Hanyu was startled and gently pinched his fingers.

Qin Xiao did not respond, nor did he shake him off. He just glanced at Yu Yunhao coldly.

He thought of Wang Ji's words. If he took action at this time and place, it would inevitably cause trouble for Qin Xiuyun.

"You'd better shut up." Qin Xiao gave him a final warning, his eyes flashing coldly, "Don't let me hear you say rude things again."

"you--"

Yu Yunhao wanted to say something else. Suddenly, a flame ignited between the two of them, blocking his steps.

Then, the flame split into several fireballs, burning fiercely, as if a warning.

"It's really ugly for a grown man to cling to a child."

A strange voice came from not far away. Qin Xiao turned his head, but his eyes sank. He did not feel happy that the person came to help him.

Pei Zhixing was wearing a blue shirt. He raised his chin slightly, lowered his eyes, glanced at Yu Yunhao with disdain, and then looked at Qin Xiao.

Qin Xiao frowned again when he was looked at by him.

"How can you allow yourself to be humiliated like this? Don't you have any sense of guilt at all?" Pei Zhixing said in a cold voice.

Qin Xiao glanced at him indifferently and said nothing.

Seeing this, Mo Hanyu frowned and gently pulled Qin Xiao's arm, not knowing whether he was nervous or wanted to comfort him.

"You... have reached the Xuan realm? No wonder..." Seeing that he ignored him, Pei Zhixing exclaimed again.

This time Qin Xiao finally reacted - he slowly raised his head, glanced at him, turned his head and asked Mo Hanyu: "What is the Xuan Realm?"

"You don't know?" Mo Hanyu looked at him in surprise, "I thought you knew."

"You don't know? How can Qin Xiuyun be a father?!" Pei Zhixing frowned, surprised and a little dissatisfied.

Qin Xiao glanced at him again, his brows deepened.

"Xuanjing... refers to the realm of cultivation." Mo Hanyu saw Qin Xiao's face and knew that he was in a bad mood. He gently pulled him and whispered in his ear, "The entry level is from level one to level nine, and then there are four realms. They are the Cangqiongtian Realm, Kunyidi Realm, Yousuixuan Realm and Yiqingchen Realm. Among them, the Cangqiongtian Realm is the highest, and then it goes down like that..."

Mo Hanyu was also puzzled that he didn't know this, and added: "I thought you knew...so I didn't tell you."

Qin Xiao lowered his eyes, didn't react much when he heard the words, and nodded slightly to show that he understood.

"You've just turned ten, and you've already entered the Deep Mysterious Realm. This shows how talented you are." Pei Zhixing saw Qin Xiao looking at him, and said, "Your talent will only be wasted if you stay in the Qin family. Why don't you come to my Pei family? The Pei family will definitely do its best to train you."

Qin Jinyi, who had already put one leg over the window and was ready to jump, paused when he heard this.

The third brother has reached the Xuan realm?

Qin Jinyi looked at Qin Xiao in surprise. He didn't know...

"Come down first, come down." Behind him, Mo Hanshang took advantage of his daze and quickly hugged him down by the waist, "Don't worry, we will go down directly in a moment."

Liu Qingfeng and Bai Shuheng, who were standing by, also heard the conversation and were all surprised.

However, the two were surprised in different ways than Qin Jinyi.

"How did he figure that out?" Bai Shuheng looked at Liu Qingfeng, "Could it be that he has already made a breakthrough?"

"It seems so." Liu Qingfeng's face was solemn, "I can't tell his realm."

"...Tsk." Bai Shuheng thought of something and lowered his eyes.

Qin Jinyi ignored Mo Hanshang and looked straight at Qin Xiao, feeling a little nervous for some reason.

It seems that they have never told him about the Pei family...

What will the third child choose?

Qin Jinyi swallowed unconsciously.

On the street, Qin Xiao felt confused by Pei Zhixing's words.

"Who are you?" Qin Xiao frowned and asked, "Do I know you?"

"...Ah." Pei Zhixing realized something, cleared his throat, stood up straight, and said with his arms folded, "My name is Pei Zhixing, from the Pei family in Yangtianzhou."

"Yangtianzhou Pei family?" Qin Xiao seemed to think about it, "I haven't heard of it."

"..."

Pei Zhixing choked up. He didn't expect him to say that, but he quickly adjusted himself and continued to persuade him: "You should know that your talent can be said to be one in a million. Even your eldest brother has only reached the upper level of the Profound Realm. There is still an eight-year gap between you... Qin Xiuyun has never mentioned this to you. He doesn't value you at all. You are completely wasted in the Qin family. You should have better resources. Come to the Pei family!"

"...So, do I know you?" Not knowing what Pei Zhixing said was wrong, Qin Xiao's face became even uglier. "Don't you think it's presumptuous of you to say this right away?"

"I--" Pei Zhixing seemed to want to explain, but swallowed the words back and changed the topic, "Didn't Qin Xiuyun mention it to you? I am the eldest son of your mother's brother, so I am also your cousin, you--"

"Cousin?" Qin Xiao's face turned even colder. "I have never heard of my mother's family in my life. And the ones you just mentioned, I will be able to get to know them after I go to school. There is no such thing as my father holding me back."

"With your physique, can you find the academy?"

"What did you say?" Qin Xiao's eyes suddenly became sharp.

"You and I both know that with your special physique, the Qin family can't do it." Pei Zhixing said this, slightly raised his chin, and seemed very proud: "The Qin family does not have this strength, and Qin Xiuyun is a loser. But if you can come to the Pei family, the Pei family will find a suitable mentor for you, and even--"

Qin Xiao closed his eyes, veins bulged on his forehead, and it seemed that he had reached the limit of his endurance.

Mo Hanyu looked at him fearfully, then looked at Pei Zhixing, frowned, and was dissatisfied with him.

"Hey, you've said enough--" Yu Yunhao, who had been ignored for a long time, was about to interrupt.

"Shut up!" Pei Zhixing shouted coldly, his eyes sharp, "If you want to find a monster, get out of here. You have nothing to do here. Don't make trouble here."

Yu Yunhao was not convinced and wanted to say something, but when he met Pei Zhixing's cold eyes, he instantly wilted. He could only grit his teeth and walk away angrily.

"Do you think your brother will agree?"

Mo Hanshang put one arm around Qin Jinyi's neck, half of his body pressed over, rubbed his head affectionately, and asked with a smile.

Qin Jinyi did not answer. He looked at Qin Xiao below with a frown. Seeing Qin Xiao's expression, he suddenly felt an unexpected worry.

It’s not that I’m worried that he will agree, but that I’m worried that he will get angry with Pei Zhixing.

Why do you have this idea?

Qin Jinyi himself didn't quite understand it. But his subconscious mind told him that Qin Xiao was already angry with Pei Zhixing.

Because of what Pei Zhixing said.

"..."

Qin Xiao closed his eyes and pursed his lips, as if he was enduring something.

"What do you think?" Pei Zhixing asked him.

"...You really don't think you're being rude?"

Qin Xiao was silent for a while, then spoke slowly, with a hint of anger hidden in his tone, and he suppressed his anger.

Qin Xiao raised his eyes, his black pupils flashed with cold light, like a broken blade, sharp and bright.
