My Wife Is A Sword Immortal

Chapter 108: Chapter 95 Array Master
 

“Teacher Li, what is this talk? Although Gao Yi here is but a common man, he is also a citizen of Great Wei.”

Inside the box room.

A man dressed in dark robes, with thick brows and large eyes, frowned and pursed his lips, his expression serious.

“Prime Minister Qin Ji governs with diligence, is loyal to the emperor, and serves the people, leading our Great Wei Country to prosper day by day. The emperor values him, and the people love him, which is a blessing for our Great Wei.”

“Now, Liu Sanbian actually wants to strike at the beloved son of Prime Minister Qin Ji. Gao Yi cannot sit idly by.”

Gao Yi paused, closed his eyes, and took a deep breath. Then, with a resolved expression, he stared at the silhouette of a man in front of the window and said in a deep voice,

“Even though that traitor was once a friend of mine, since he has decided to commit such a heinous act, I am the first to disapprove! I hereby sever all ties with that traitor!”

His voice, like the sound of Golden Stone striking the ground, was resounding and powerful, echoing within the confines of the room.

“Shh, keep it down, don’t make noise.”

The man turned around suddenly in front of the window.

Upon hearing this, Gao Yi’s expression instantly turned respectful, and he quickly lowered his head in silence.

The box room fell into a brief silence, with only the faint and vague laughter of a ruffian from the distant street drifting into the window.

After a short while.

Li Shida, who had been communicating with the outside world holding the Blackwood Token with his eyelids lowered, put down the token, raised his eyes, turned around, and scrutinized Gao Yi carefully.

Li Shida suddenly smiled, “I’ve long heard that Manor Master Gao is one of the bravest heroes in the Jianghu of the Great Wei, greatly admiring the renowned ‘Yi Baoyun.’ Now that I see you in person, you truly are as wise and timely as the rumors suggest, a real dragon among men.”

“Teacher Li praises me too highly, it’s a duty I cannot shirk.”

Gao Yi smiled.

Li Shida raised his eyebrows and abruptly changed the subject, “Was your good brother alone when he came back?”

Gao Yi hurriedly said, “Teacher Li, I have already cut off all relations with that traitor. There is no longer any ‘good brother’ to speak of.”

“Hmm, okay, does that Liu Sanbian still have accomplices?”

Gao Yi with a stern face said, “He brought two people to stay at the manor when he came, claiming they were friends he met on the road, and asked me to help them with their travel permits. Thinking that individuals in Jianghu are responsible for their own actions and these two were just passing by, I agreed. I was going to arrange for people to send them out of Great Wei today, but not long after the traitor left the manor this morning, those two also disappeared.”

Li Shida nodded, his tone approving.

“Manor Master Gao truly distinguishes right from wrong, embodying the spirit of a knight of the nation… Find those two and kill them.”

He halved his sentence, then suddenly changed the tone.

Next, Li Shida curled his lips, didn’t wait for the reaction of the man in front of him, turned around with waning interest, and continued observing the street.

Seeing this, Gao Yi quickly bowed with his fists clenched.

“Rest assured, Teacher Li. With your guidance, Gao has been enlightened. Indeed, I was negligent before. If those two pose a threat to young master Qin…”

“Shh, quiet, the show is about to start.”

————

The Vermilion Bird Great Dao was originally one of the busiest streets in the eastern part of the city.

Now, in the full blaze of noon, the street was eerily quiet.

Nearly all the shops on both sides of the street were closed tightly.

At an outdoor noodle stall on the street, tables and chairs were disheveled, with only one set in the southwest corner intact.

There sat a man, face unseen, quietly eating his noodles.

A group of people slowly approached from not far away.

The leader was a man dressed in a brightly colored robe, with his chest bare and a gold necklace around his neck, all smiles.

About two dozen followers were closely trailing behind him.

Qin Ji raised his right hand and, turning over his shoulder, caught a White Jade Folding Fan passed by someone behind him. Then, he quickly stepped forward, approaching the table.

“Hey, fierce fellow, why aren’t you running?”

The noodle-eating man didn’t respond to him.

“Let this young master guess… haha, you must be here to block this young master’s path, right? Could it be that you’re after my head?”

“Hahaha, right or not?”

“Hahahahaha—”

Qin Ji’s laughter grew maniacal as he grabbed the folding fan and pointed at Liu Sanbian not far away, barely able to straighten up as if he’d told himself the funniest joke.

The noodle-eating man continued to eat his noodles.

Qin Ji’s smile slowly faded.

“Just you, this trash?”

He scrutinized the noodle-eating man from head to toe, then licked his lips in a circle.

“Well, let me give you a chance, this trash. After all, it’s been eight years since someone dared to face me like this.”

Qin Ji chuckled as he walked to the table, lifted a foot, and stepped on the stool opposite the noodle-eating Liu’s seat.

The two were separated by a table.

And even the closest follower of Qin Ji was more than twenty steps away.

The noodle-eating man continued to bow his head and eat his noodles, showing no reaction.

Qin Ji smacked his lips.

“Bang!”

He unfurled the folding fan in his hand and looked down from a high position at the person opposite him, shaking the fan gently.

However, after waiting a while,

Qin Ji still hadn’t received what he was waiting for; he tilted his head, pursed his lips, and glanced sideways at the noodle-eating man.

“Tsk!”

With disdain, Qin Ji kicked over the stool beneath him, snapping the fan shut, and began to walk around the table.

But as he walked behind the noodle-eating man, the two were only a few steps apart.

The noodle-eating man still didn’t move.

Qin Ji impatiently said, “Hey, can you hurry up? I still need to go back for dinner.”

Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of something out of the corner of his eye, his expression shifted, and he walked over to the wooden board laid on the ground.

Qin Ji stood on one foot to maintain balance, and raised the other foot backward.

Gathering strength.

In the meantime, he looked sideways at the noodle-eating man, noticing that the man’s noodle-eating movements seemed to have slowed down.

Qin Ji smiled.

He stepped down.

“Bang—”

The wooden board that had been lying on the ground, covering some indelible stains for half a year,

flew out.

Qin Ji pointed at the shocking dark red bloodstains on the ground.

He laughed loudly,

“Back then, that old thing was lying here just like a dog, this old thing looked weak, didn’t expect he had so much blood…”

“Snap.”

The sound was very soft.

A pair of chopsticks and a bowl was gently set down.

The chopsticks were bent and twisted.

Upon a closer look, they were broken into four pieces.

Seeing this, Qin Ji paused mid-sentence.

In an instant,

the noodle-eating man suddenly looked up.

His eyes were bloodshot.

His mouth was full of blood.

He threw a punch.

The two men.

Three steps.

Were suddenly face-to-face.

The next second,

The situation on the field changed in the blink of an eye.

Just then,

Liu Sanbian was standing right where Qin Ji had stood before.

But besides him and the pool of his father’s blood on the ground,

there was no one else.

Liu Sanbian turned his head, looking toward a certain spot.

Almost at the same time,

“Hahahahaha—”

From the direction he was looking, a burst of manic laughter broke out.

At the street corner 300 meters away, Qin Ji, clad in a colorful robe, opened his mouth in laughter, bent over holding his stomach, and with the folding fan in his hand, he fiercely pointed in Liu Sanbian’s direction.

The White Jade Folding Fan in his hand emitted a light, flickering brightly and dimly.

Strange runes appeared on the jade body.

“That’s all? Hahahaha, laughed to death, come on, you can’t hit me, you can’t hit me! Hahahaha…”

Slowly, a black-robed elder stepped out from behind Qin Ji, holding a bronze compass, its runes flashing at the moment.

Liu Sanbian looked around the entire street.

On the walls, prayer flags, wooden windows, stone stairs, wooden poles, plaques…

At a glance,

A dizzying array of runes appeared everywhere.

“Hiss, is that an Array Master?”

In a private room somewhere, Gao Yi, seeing the scene on the street, exclaimed in shock.

Li Shida hooked the corner of his mouth, picked up the token at his waist, and whispered,

“Capture him alive.”
