Young Master, Don't Show Off - Chapter 203
[Chapter 203 I know a lot…]
Inn room.
On the spacious round bed.
Qin Wan curled up in Lin Xiu’s arms, her beautiful eyes moving.
His ability was obviously ice, but his embrace was so warm.
He always gave her everything she needed when she was most helpless.
It was an umbrella when it rained.
It was a bowl of noodles when she was hungry. It was
a comfortable room when she was homeless.
It was a warm hug when she was cold.
Sometimes she wondered if this man was sent by God to save her?
Lin Xiu held the soft jade in his arms, and then asked Qin Wan: “When did you become a ground-level?”
He had just suspected this matter. Judging from the movement made by the assassin, he was definitely a ground-level. Qin Wan could make him fall into an illusion, and her strength must have reached the ground-level.
Qin Wan put away her thoughts and said: “Two days before you came back.”
Lin Xiu was stunned for a moment and asked: “But when we left, you also took more than a dozen Yuanjing from Zhu Jin…”
This time Qin Wan didn’t say anything.
But Lin Xiu soon realized that she was fleecing.
They are really a family.
Lin Xiu also likes to fleece the dog emperor.
Who would complain about having too many Yuan Crystals? If they don’t need them anymore, they can sell them. A fourth-level Yuan Crystal can be sold to the shops in the capital for 10,000 taels of silver. Although
others would not be so extravagant as to use Yuan Crystals for cultivation, they would prepare one or two Yuan Crystals to instantly restore Yuan Power at a critical moment, or to break the bottleneck of the third-level to the fourth-level. They all need fourth-level Yuan Crystals.
Speaking of which, she is now a small rich woman. She can pay off the money she owes him by selling a Yuan Crystal casually, and she doesn’t have to clean, cook, massage her back and shoulders anymore…
But Lin Xiu didn’t expose her, just asked: “Are you still cold?”
Qin Wan was actually not cold anymore, and even felt a little hot. She kicked the quilt away with her feet, but said: “Cold…”
So Lin Xiu hugged her tighter.
The two bodies were tightly pressed together, and each could feel each other’s heartbeat and breathing.
Lin Xiu knew that Qin Wan was pretending to be cold.
Qin Wan also knew that Lin Xiu knew that she was pretending to be cold.
Lin Xiu also knew that Qin Wan knew that he knew that she was pretending to be cold.
But both of them pretended not to know.
They both needed this reason.
Until a groan came from the corner of the wall, destroying this rare atmosphere.
Lin Xiu had to put on her clothes, and Qin Wan also reluctantly put on her coat, got off the bed and walked to the wall.
She looked at the assassin, with anger in her heart, and said coldly: “Tell me, who sent you!”
Just now he fell into an illusion. In order to escape, the large-scale indiscriminate attack consumed too much of the energy of this earth-level wood-type magician. He now has little power to resist.
He did not answer Qin Wan’s words, but just silently recovered his energy and waited for an opportunity to escape.
Although he had conducted a thorough investigation before the assassination, he did not expect that this woman was also earth-level, and the way of attack was so weird that he accidentally capsized in the gutter.
Seeing that he did not speak, Qin Wan looked around, picked up a whip from the shelf beside her, and whipped the assassin. Not only did the assassin’s body twitch, but Lin Xiu’s heart also trembled. Seeing that
he did not speak yet, Qin Wan whipped him again.
The assassin’s eyes twitched. This woman was really cruel. In order to avoid being tortured, he had to say, “I am only doing this for money. Someone spent 10,000 taels of silver to buy the life of Lin Xiu, the son of Ping An Hou…”
Qin Wan glanced at Lin Xiu, and her pretty face showed shock. Then she asked the assassin, “Who hired you?”
The assassin said, “In our line of work, employers will not easily reveal their identities.”
As soon as he finished speaking, his body suddenly jumped up, and a short knife slipped from his sleeve. He held it in his hand and stabbed Qin Wan.
Although his Yuanli had not yet recovered, martial arts could play a better role at close range. Who would have thought that his martial arts had already reached the peak of the lower realm of the Xuan level? As long as he dealt with this earth-level woman, this mission could still be successfully completed.
But at the moment he made his move, a figure, almost teleported, blocked Qin Wan.
The short knife stabbed Lin Xiu’s chest and rolled the blade directly.
Lin Xiu slapped him on the head, and the true energy surged out. The assassin’s eyes widened and his body fell down weakly.
Qin Wan said anxiously: “How did you kill him? You haven’t asked who wants to assassinate you yet!”
Lin Xiu shook his head and said: “It’s useless. As he said, he just took the money to do the job. He doesn’t know the identity of the employer. It’s useless to keep him. What’s more, he just wanted to kill you…”
For Lin Xiu, who has been assassinated many times, he knows the rules of the killer better than anyone else.
The more important the assassination, the deeper the identity of the employer is hidden, and even the assassin himself doesn’t know.
Besides, Lin Xiu knows who wants to kill him.
It’s nothing more than the prince or the Zhang family. The possibility of the prince is greater. When he was in the royal capital, he couldn’t help but take action several times. What’s more, his and Qin Wan’s actions this time out of Beijing are no secret to those who are interested.
Qin Wan pondered for a moment and asked: “Is it the Zhang family?”
In fact, compared with the prince, the Zhang family is unlikely to be the one who killed Zhang Jing. They don’t know that he killed Zhang Jing. Wu Wenyuan and Liu Qingfeng are still alive and well. It is even more impossible for them to attack Lin Xiu.
Lin Xiu doesn’t care who assassinates him. He cares about another thing.
Lin Xiu looked at Qin Wan, frowned and said, “This is not important. Don’t you know that although your ability is powerful, once someone gets close to you, you are no different from ordinary people. You were so close to him just now. You are dying…”
Qin Wan rolled her eyes at him and said, “Don’t you have you to protect me?”
Lin Xiu was speechless.
However, he had already decided in his heart that after returning, he would take Qin Wan with him at night and practice with her. He would do whatever it takes to improve her martial arts strength. Although
her ability is against the sky, she is not invincible.
In a situation like tonight, if she encounters ice, fire, thunder, and other abilities that can easily cause large-scale attacks, even if she can’t see her, a large-scale indiscriminate attack can always hurt her.
In the final analysis, as a spiritual mage, she is still too fragile.
More fragile than Lingyin and Minghe, and even Ning’er.
If possible, Lin Xiu even wanted to share his ability with her two.
It’s a pity that he can only copy, not paste.
After a long time, he focused his attention on the assassin on the ground.
Lin Xiu touched his body with ease and found several large-denomination silver bills, some small silver, and several hidden weapons. There was no brand this time. I don’t know if he didn’t bring it, or he was originally a wild assassin.
This person can control plants. It is undoubtedly the wood skill. Lin Xiu does not have this ability for the time being, but he does not plan to keep him. The
wood skill is not rare. There are several classmates in the School of Skills who have this ability. At most, after the next awakening, Lin Xiu will be a stalker again.
As his abilities become more and more, the process of acquiring abilities has become simpler and simpler.
Lin Xiu divided half of the silver bills searched from this person to Qin Wan, and said: “If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t be so easy to subdue him. Let’s split these silvers equally.”
Although the assassin’s ability is wood, he is also earth-level. Without Qin Wan, it would be a bit troublesome for Lin Xiu to deal with him.
If it was in the forest, it might be Lin Xiu who fled.
Qin Wan played a big role in the battle just now, and it was reasonable to give her half of the money.
These silver notes are about 5,000 taels, and Qin Wan can get 2,500 taels.
Lin Xiu looked at Qin Wan and said, “Of course, you can also choose to pay me back first, so that you only owe me a little over 7,000 taels…”
Qin Wan took the silver notes from him and said, “Why are you in a hurry? I will pay you back slowly in the future. I want to save this money first…”
Lin Xiu thought to himself that in the future, he would not have to pay it back. With her virtue of thriftiness, she could even take care of all the money in the family.
He opened the window, carrying the assassin’s body, and said to Qin Wan, “I will deal with his body first, and you wait here for me to come back.”
It was already late at night. Lin Xiu carried the body and jumped out of the window. After walking a few steps, he hid his body directly, flew up, and soon came to a barren mountain outside the city.
The ground in front of him automatically cracked, and soon a square deep pit appeared. Lin Xiu threw the body into it, and the ground closed again.
The Earth Art is convenient for doing this kind of thing.
Soon, Lin Xiu returned to the inn.
Qin Wan brought him a basin of water and said, “Wash your hands.”
Having touched the body just now, Lin Xiu carefully washed his hands and decided in his heart that after the Earth Level, he must first obtain the Water Art. Although its attack is not the most powerful, it is really convenient to use.
At this time, it was already past three o’clock in the morning, and the rooms on both sides had become quiet.
Only in the room in the distance, there was still a faint sound of lewdness.
Qin Wan said, “Go to bed, we still have to travel tomorrow.” Lin
Xiu nodded and went to bed again.
Qin Wan lay on the other side. Neither of them covered the quilt. It was summer now, and the room was particularly hot in the middle of the night.
Qin Wan tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. At a certain moment, Lin Xiu’s voice came to her ears.
“What’s wrong?”
“Hot.”
“Why didn’t you say so earlier?”
As soon as she finished speaking, her hand was held. A hint of coolness flowed into her body, instantly dispelling all the heat. The comfortable feeling at that moment almost made her moan.
She held Lin Xiu’s hand and moved towards him, asking curiously, “How do you manage to be both cold and hot?”
Lin Xiu said, “Isn’t this great? In winter, I can warm you up, and in summer, I can help you drive away the heat. How about it? Are you tempted? Do you want to consider it and admit defeat…”
Qin Wan turned sideways, put one hand on Lin Xiu’s chest, gently drew circles with her index finger, leaned close to his ear, exhaled a sweet breath, and whispered, “You can also admit defeat. I forgot to tell you that I learned a lot from books. I know how to do Xuanchan Fu, Kongdie Fan, Yan Tongxin, and Yuanyang Kou…”
“The cicada is attached, the butterfly is flying in the sky, the swallows are of the same mind, the mandarin ducks are clasping…” Lin Xiu was surprised and said, “What kind of books are you reading?”
Qin Wan said, “When you went to Jiangnan, I found this book under your pillow when I was helping you clean up your room…”
Lin Xiu: “…”
Lin Xiu had to admit that Qin Wan gave him a temptation that was hard to refuse. The biggest difference between her and Cai Yi was that she learned some things by herself without him teaching her…
Thanks to “Drink More Magma i” and “Fenghuang Qifei z” for their rewards.
