Chapter 1301 1301: Foresight Like a God

Yu Huan was so enraged his heart was attacked, his body slightly trembled, and he spat out a mouthful of fresh blood again.

He had exhausted all his efforts, yet unexpectedly, Mo Xiao still managed to escape.

Yu Huan looked coldly at Wen Zhu, thinking that if Wen Zhu hadn't insisted on sparring with Mo Xiao, they would have captured Mo Xiao long ago.

"City Lord Wen, I recall that in your Lianhuan City, arrays are linked together, and once activated, they are both offensive and defensive. Mo Xiao should be trapped inside the city, right?"

Wen Zhu frowned deeply, "Mo Xiao's array skills are not inferior to mine. I don't know if they can stop him."

Yu Huan's face turned ashen as he couldn't help but say, "City Lord Wen, if it weren't for your insistence on sparring, Mo Xiao wouldn't have escaped at all."

Wen Zhu glanced at Yu Huan but didn't say much in the end. Mo Xiao's escape was indeed partly his fault, as he had been too careless.

"Come with me to the City Lord's Mansion to heal. I will activate the city's great array and send people to search the entire city."

Wen Zhu, Yu Huan, and the others quickly left.

They didn't even glance at the tavern nearby, believing Mo Xiao was not foolish enough to return.

In the room, Jing Wuyan and Mo Xiao, peeping through the window gap, breathed a sigh of relief.

"Brother Qin really is a prophet. The most dangerous place is indeed the safest."

Mo Xiao was also full of admiration, Qin Yi truly was too formidable, knowing everything.

However, he was also worried, "Young Master, if Wen Zhu opens the great array, I fear it will be difficult for us to leave Lianhuan City."

"Don't worry! Seeing Brother Qin's relaxed demeanor, he clearly doesn't take the city's great array seriously."

Jing Wuyan said this while closing the window, pulling Mo Xiao over and pressing him into a chair, "Brother Qin's methods are unfathomable. He will definitely lead us safely out of Lianhuan City. Don't worry about this anymore, let me apply medicine for you, and after the medicine, go and have a good rest."

Earlier, Mo Xiao was trapped by Wen Zhu's great array, and his back was struck by lightning, leaving a terrifying wound.

Mo Xiao said in fear, "Young Master, this is unacceptable, I can apply the medicine myself."

"Hold still." Jing Wuyan intensified his tone, "You followed me through life and death, ostensibly I am your Young Master, but in my heart, you are as my kin."

Mo Xiao was full of gratitude, "Thank you, Young Master."

"Why thank me? I should be thanking all of you. If it weren't for everyone's help, I couldn't achieve anything alone."

...

...

The next day, in the morning.

Yun Mengyao arrived at Qin Yi's door, knocked, and without waiting for Qin Yi's response, pushed the door open.

As Yun Mengyao entered, she was instantly stunned.

Only to see the room's tables and chairs, furnishings, all floating in mid-air, supported by a mysterious force and slowly drifting. The entire room was in chaos.

"Qin Yi, was your room burglarized? What kind of thief has such poor judgment to steal into your room?" Yun Mengyao teased as she pulled a chair from mid-air to sit down. Then she looked at Qin Yi, who was meditating by the bedside.

As soon as Yun Mengyao finished speaking, suddenly she felt her view transform.

The originally floating tables, chairs, and furnishings instantly returned to their places, including the chair beneath her shifted back to its original position.

Yun Mengyao looked dumbfounded, shocked at Qin Yi.

Qin Yi slowly opened his eyes and exhaled a mouthful of turbid air.

"Miss Yun, could you next time wait for my agreement before coming in? What if I am asleep and undressed?"

Yun Mengyao disparaged, "Give me a break, without Bingbing you'd waste time sleeping."

Qin Yi: "..."

What is meant by without Bingbing, as if with Bingbing he wouldn't cultivate.

"What were you up to just now? Was it an array?"

Qin Yi shook his head, "It's Engraving Skill."

Yun Mengyao disparaged, "Seems like this Engraving Skill isn't much. Is it hard to make things float? Anyone with a bit of cultivation can do it."

Qin Yi cheerfully cursed, "You only understand yo-yos. Just now, what you saw was everything floating, but actually, everything was in its original position, it didn't move at all."

Yun Mengyao was dumbstruck, and after a while, she disparaged, "Do you think I'm blind? Just now, the tables and chairs, furnishings, were all flying, I saw it with my own eyes."

"Forget it, explaining it to you would be pointless." Qin Yi displayed an expression of disdain.

Yun Mengyao spat, "I'm not interested in listening anyway."

Qin Yi chuckled, saying nothing more.

The deeper he dived into it, the more he realized the Engraving Skill's complexity.

Earlier, Yun Mengyao saw the room's objects float in the air, but actually, none of them did. He merely used the Engraving Skill to alter the room's rules, causing Yun Mengyao to have a visual error. For instance, the tables and chairs hadn't moved from their original positions, but to Yun Mengyao, they appeared floating.

This use of Engraving Skill complemented arrays wonderfully.

In sum, regarding Engraving Skill, he now only understood its surface.

At this moment, a knocking sound came.

"Come in."

The door pushed open and Jing Wuyan entered.

"Brother Qin, is Fairy Yun hungry? I prepared breakfast in my room."

Qin Yi slightly nodded, "Let's go. Once we're full, we should set off."

"Brother Qin, Mo Xiao and I discussed it with the others, let's find a way to leave first. Mo Xiao showed his face, and I think he should find a place here to hide for a few days until things calm down before planning to leave the city."

Jing Wuyan helped Qin Yi with a bowl of congee and handed it over, speaking casually.

Qin Yi took it and drank two sips, saying, "No need for such trouble. Just follow us."

Jing Wuyan's eyes lit up, "Brother Qin, do you have a way to lead them out of here?"

Yun Mengyao disparaged, "Hurry up and eat. Don't ask such foolish questions from now on, there's nothing Qin Yi can't do."

Jing Wuyan laughed dryly a few times, nodding.

Fully satiated, Jing Wuyan called Mo Xiao and the others over.

"Brother Qin, tell us your plan, what should we do?" Jing Wuyan asked.

Qin Yi looked at Jing Wuyan and said, "Now go buy a pot and some seasonings."

Jing Wuyan looked at Qin Yi, bewildered.

Qin Yi smiled, "What's wrong? Is it difficult?"

Jing Wuyan said, "No, I'll go buy them right away."

"Young Master, I'll go instead." One of Jing Wuyan's subordinates spoke up.

Jing Wuyan slightly nodded, "Go ahead, be careful."

About half an hour later, Jing Wuyan's subordinate returned with a pot and some seasonings.

Curiously, Jing Wuyan asked, "Brother Qin, what's next?"

"Take the items, let's go."

Everyone looked baffled.

Yun Mengyao laughed, "Hurry up and take the items, we're setting off."

Jing Wuyan quietly asked Yun Mengyao, "Fairy Yun, what does Brother Qin want these items for?"

"You'll find out later, they'll be of great use."

Qin Yi had already opened the door and gone out. Jing Wuyan had his people bring the pot and seasonings and hurriedly followed.

Seeing Qin Yi descend the stairs, heading outside, Jing Wuyan quickly jogged up, "Brother Qin, are we just going out boldly like this?"

"How else? Can you fly into the heavens or escape into the earth?" Qin Yi retorted.

Jing Wuyan: "..."
