Chapter 14: Encountering Evil Spirit Again
“Just do it!”
Qin Feng walked up to Qin An and raised his left hand, placing it on his brother’s abdomen.
I have to say, those eight-pack abs felt really good to the touch.
Qin An curiously asked, “Big brother, what are you doing?”
Qin Feng explained, “Little brother, I’m going to infuse your body with the Literature Qi and let it circulate within you. Focus and feel it.”
“No problem, I’m ready.”
“Good.” Qin Feng took a deep breath and started guiding the Literature Qi from the waterfall in his mind. In no time, the essence surged, turning into a stream of water that flowed into Qin An’s abdomen.
Damn it, this external infusion of Literature Qi is much more challenging than I thought, Qin Feng frowned, gritting his teeth as he controlled the Literature Qi in Qin An’s body and directed it according to the circulation route described in the “Heavenly Astral Essence Slash.”
“Little brother, do you feel anything?” Qin Feng asked.
Qin An carefully felt it. After a few moments, his previously uncomfortable expression suddenly became ecstatic. He finally understood the correct way to circulate the inner energy!
“Big brother, I can feel it!”
In the blink of an eye, Qin An raised his right hand, activated his inner energy, and then slashed towards a boulder several meters away.
This time, though he didn’t completely cut through the rock but there was a clear crack about the width of a finger on its surface.
“Good job,” Qin Feng was pleased with the progress. At the same time, a strand of Literature Qi in his mental waterfall suddenly became incredibly robust. Once it settled down, it was several times larger than before.
Qin Feng was first surprised, but then excitement overwhelmed him. He realized that gaining additional Literature Qi wasn’t limited to healing and helping others based on medical texts. Teaching and guiding others using the knowledge in the books could also earn him more Literature Qi!
With this method, he could significantly accelerate the rate at which he absorbed Literature Qi.
Just as he was getting excited, he suddenly felt a shiver down his spine. Turning his head, he saw his second mother and Cang Feilan standing not too far away, looking at them with complex expressions.
Second Mother stammered, “Feng, Miss Cang has something to discuss with you.”
If you have something to do with me, just do. Why do you have this expression on your face? “Sorry, I didn’t pay attention just now. When did you come?”
Cang Feilan replied indifferently, “It was when you asked, ‘Little brother, do you feel anything?'”
As soon as those words left her mouth, Qin Feng’s expression instantly stiffened. He pondered this statement and looked at their current situation—one with his bare upper body and the other just having touched his brother’s abdomen.
No matter how you looked at it, this scene was bound to be misunderstood.
“Uh, let me explain!”
Meng Xue, recalling a previous scene where Feng had touched the servant girl Qing’er, combined with the recent circumstances, her mind was filled with various speculations. She didn’t dare stay any longer and stiffly said, “Second Mother has something to attend to, so we won’t disturb you.”
Watching Second Mother hurry back to the Qin mansion’s main hall, Qin Feng opened his mouth, feeling that she had misunderstood something.
Back in the mansion’s main hall, Second Mother looked worried as she said, “My lord, let’s find a suitable marriage for Feng’er.”
Qin Jian’an took a sip of tea and asked, “Why the sudden thought?”
“I just think that Feng’er is of marriageable age and it’s time.”
“Even though that may be true, this is quite sudden.”
“It’s not sudden; I think it’s the right time.”
“My dear, what’s really bothering you?” Qin Jian’an put down his teacup, looking puzzled.
“It’s nothing, I’m just a bit worried. By the way, what do you think of Miss Cang?”
“Achoo.” Qin Feng sneezed as he left the mansion. The weather was getting colder.
Cang Feilan glanced at him and her light blue eyes held a special meaning, as if she were saying, “I didn’t expect you to have this kind of preference.”
“I didn’t, I really didn’t! Don’t jump to conclusions!” Qin Feng hastily waved his hands.
“I didn’t say anything,” Cang Feilan withdrew her gaze and continued walking.
It had to be said that Miss Cang’s eyes were so dazzling; no matter how many times he looked, just her eyes alone were enchanting. What kind of breathtaking beauty would be revealed if she removed that black veil?
No, no, if I dare to reach out, I’ll definitely be killed.
In order to suppress this audacious thought, Qin Feng quickly looked around, diverting his attention.
Huh? Did they have candied hawthorns in ancient times? Those candied hawthorns are really long.
Oh? Someone is selling plain noodles by the street so early in the morning? That big iron pot used for boiling noodles is really white.
And those scallion pancakes, how can they be so crispy?
Smack!
“Another mosquito?” Cang Feilan turned her head.
“Yes, there are still mosquitoes in such a cold weather.”
“It’s strange that this mosquito keeps biting you.”
“Indeed.” Qin Feng touched his cheek. “By the way, Miss Cang, have there been any traces of that evil spirit?”
Cang Feilan shook her head. “That evil spirit is exceptionally cunning. The experts from the Demon Slayers’ Department have searched high and low, but they haven’t found his trace. Master Si has been sleepless for several days now, fearing that he might harm more people.”
“Is it possible that… the evil spirit has already left Jinyang City?”
“Some have raised this question before, but Master Si believes that the evil spirit delights in consuming souls; he wouldn’t easily leave. After all, within a radius of dozens of miles, Jinyang City has the highest population.”
“I see.”
Qin Feng pondered for a moment, then suddenly felt something was amiss. He distinctly remembered that stall selling scallion pancakes. According to his recollection, after passing by that stall, he should be able to hear the crisp voice of the beautiful elder sister. But after walking for so long, there was still no sign of that on the elegant tower.
Moreover, the vendors selling plain noodles and candied hawthorns around here had been seen not long ago. It was strange to see them reappear so quickly. What was going on?!
“Miss Cang!” Qin Feng spoke up.
“I know.” Cang Feilan responded and then said coldly, “Broad daylight, and yet someone dares to come out and harm others. They don’t put us Demon Slayers in their eyes, do they?”
“Demon Slayers?” Accompanied by a chilling laughter, the surroundings began to rapidly retreat like flowing water. In the blink of an eye, Qin Feng found himself in a peculiar world.
In this world, everything was dim, and the ground he stood on was like a mirror, reflecting their shadows. However, the shadows of them in the mirror were pitch black, sending shivers down anyone’s spine.
“Tiny little Jinyang City, even if Master Si holds the Green Jade Token, he can’t do much. What can he possibly do to me?”
As the voice fell, a dark shadow appeared out of thin air in front of them.
A sharp pain shot through Qin Feng’s mind, and a strong sense of fear instantly filled his heart. It was the original owner’s memory – the evil spirit that had killed the original owner was the black shadow in front of him!
