Chapter 210: Chapter 106: The Origin Dharma Form, Red Dragon Takes to the Sky_3

Li Guanyi said, "Aunt also taught me about qin, chess, calligraphy, and painting."

The Qilin said, "Is that so?"

"Indeed it is..."

All of a sudden, he didn’t know how to continue. Thinking back to many, many years ago, that woman taught Murong Qiushui about qin, chess, calligraphy, and painting, and later, when Murong Qiushui grew up, he also passed on these arts to Li Guanyi.

The wind of Jiangnan remains the same, as do the chess manuals, and the sound of fingers brushing over the strings of the qin is still just like it was at that time.

It’s just that the person who once taught her hand in hand had ultimately passed away.

That year, the girl looked at her elder sister’s child.

She uttered the words that her elder sister had used to teach her.

Then she watched those similarly youthful but much more naïve brows furrow, evoking the pained expression she herself had when she was younger, as she felt the breeze of Jiangnan, unaware of what sort of emotions were in her heart then.

The Qilin, such an auspicious creature, was very capable of empathizing with human emotions, so it was left with nothing but a sigh. Li Guanyi stood up and swiftly rummaged through Hou Zhongyu’s belongings, finding some jade vials with elixir pills, some martial arts books, and scrolls of letters.

Li Guanyi wrapped these items in a waterproof leather cloth.

He tied it up with a rope, wrapped it around a stone, and threw it directly into a well at the Qilin Palace.

To retrieve it later when it was safe.

As an alchemist, Hou Zhongyu’s methods were indeed troublesome when he was alive, but now, Guanyi was quite curious about this Great Mage’s life’s work and naturally wanted to hide it away; including the parts related to Qilin blood, Li Guanyi could not allow them to remain in the world.

After finishing all this, Li Guanyi placed his hand on his sword and said, "Then I’m leaving, you can start breathing fire and be as unrestrained as you want afterwards."

"Alright."

The Qilin stood up and spoke softly, "Come here."

The youth, puzzled, walked over to the Qilin. The Qilin gazed at Li Guanyi, then suddenly took two steps forward. The patterns on the bronze columns lit up, and the chains tightened. The Qilin lowered its head, and its forehead gently touched Li Guanyi’s.

In absolute silence, a divine charm flowed and settled upon Li Guanyi’s body.

A long while later, the Qilin raised its head and said, "In the earliest age, the ancestors of mankind discerned methods of cultivation from all things in the heavens and earth, and from the innate spirits, they sought the divine charm. They obtained the acknowledgement and the breath of those divine beasts, which would accompany them in battle. That was the original Dharma Form."

Beside Li Guanyi, a presence manifested.

A Qilin stood quietly there, with a dense Qi Mechanism upon its body.

The Qilin said, "The things you have to do are equally dangerous."

"I will now carry out the actions of our ancestors from ancient times and forge an agreement with you. I will transform my divine charm into the edge of a blade and give it to you to wield. This is the original Dharma Form..."

The Qilin Dharma Form roared softly, then vanished.

Li Guanyi pressed his hand to his chest and said softly, "Rest assured."

The Qilin resumed its dormant state, and Li Guanyi turned and strode out. After Li Guanyi left, the Qilin’s flames began to flow, burning everything around it. Li Guanyi raised his head; over two hours had passed, and the sky had darkened.

Li Guanyi pursed his lips, having not told the Qilin that there was actually one more problem he couldn’t answer — having been gone for a good two hours, the royal guards would suspect his movements. If such suspicions were to leak out, the Emperor would definitely doubt him.

Sometimes, doubts don’t require evidence, only torture.

He needed to think of a solution.

With his palm pressed against the bronze tripod at his chest, he contemplated ways to deal with the problem. After breaking into the second realm, the power the Qilin had imparted to him the first time still remained, intense and warm. At this moment, the bronze tripod suddenly began to hum.

It started to accumulate Jade Liquid.

The Red Dragon Dharma Form also lit up. Li Guanyi was stunned, his eyes widened in shock.

Breaking into the second Multi-story meant the bronze tripod could naturally accumulate Jade Liquid.

But the lighting of the Red Dragon Dharma Form implied that...

Yue?

Why was he here?

A flash went through Li Guanyi’s mind, recalling the words Hou Zhongyu had spoken to the Empress’s maid — ’It’s precisely time for the Imperial Guard to rotate...’

The rotation of the Imperial Guard, suitable for secret discussions, was naturally also suitable for certain special operations.

But at this time, it was the last rotation before the great ceremony.

Was it by chance, or was the Emperor baiting someone into his scheme?

The night was long, and amidst the pitch-black sky, a blaze erupted. The master of the Red Dragon Dharma Form, after being discovered, had no choice but to strike, and the power of the Dharma Form soared, announcing its presence before it fiercely hammered down.

Force surged, accompanied by screams. A robust voice cried out angrily:

"Imperial Guard?"

"GET LOST!!!"

It was Yue Qianfeng!
