Volume 2 That World Chapter 12 Overseas Penglai! Stubborn Sakura
The next day.
Qi Ji opened his eyes and sat up.
He fought with Jianma again for a whole night, and this time the record was seven wins and three losses. As he got to know Jianma's moves and habits better, his winning rate gradually increased. In three of the seven victories, he didn't even need to activate the "Demon Subduing" skill.
He understood that the day was not far away when he would skip Jianma and challenge the next level.
Yesterday, Qin Zijin and Yu Jiansheng jointly opened a door called "truth" for him.
At the same time, he also officially knew that the extraordinary things that could not be found in this world could be found in the "outside world".
In fact, he has always had a deep fear. That is, as the enemies in the Tower of Transcendence become stronger and stronger, it stands to reason that there will gradually appear beings that he, a mortal, will not be able to resist at all. At that time, won't he have no choice but to close his eyes and wait for death?
That's why he was so ecstatic when he discovered that the meridian nourishing method could induce the spirit to interfere with reality.
Then, after realizing that he could not interfere with reality with his mind, he felt extremely lost and could only find excuses to comfort himself.
It was all because of his deep and urgent need for transcendence.
After getting up and washing up, Qi Ji took his simple luggage and went downstairs to check out.
Then he saw Qin Zijin waiting for him on the sofa downstairs.
The beauty greeted Qi Ji with a smile as beautiful as a flower: "Good morning, Qi Ji!"
"Good morning, Zijin!" Qi Ji responded with a smile: "Why are you here so early?"
Qin Zijin smiled warmly: "Of course it's to see you earlier."
Qi Ji exclaimed, wow, this girl’s tea ceremony skills are really getting better and better.
While checking out, Qi Ji and Qin Zijin chatted casually.
"How are we going to get there later?" Qi Ji asked the question he was most curious about.
"Fly over!" Qin Zijin covered his mouth and smiled.
Qi Ji: “Ah?”
…
An hour later, Qi Ji was sitting in the helicopter, looking at Qin Zijin sitting next to him and Sword Master and Bai Tianhe sitting opposite him.
My whole body feels numb.
"Our target is at sea?" Qi Ji asked loudly to Qin Zijin beside him. The sound of the rotating propeller was too loud, and if he spoke softly, no one could hear it at all.
Qin Zijin smiled and nodded, and replied loudly: "Yes! The target is our Jiange headquarters here!"
"Where on the sea?" Qi Ji continued to ask.
"Penglai!" Qin Zijin leaned over and whispered in Qi Ji's ear, "Penglai Fairy Island!"
Qi Ji: "Why are you shouting so loudly!"
Mr. Yu opposite was looking at the intimacy between the handsome man and the beautiful woman in front of him with a smile, and he felt a little full.
As for Bai Tianhe, he seemed to be a little afraid of heights. His face was ashen and he sat upright without moving.
After a short flight, Qi Ji and his companions landed deep in an island mountain in the middle of the vast ocean.
The helicopter stayed on the tarmac for refueling, while Qi Ji and his companions walked down the tarmac and came to the "Jian Ge Headquarters".
The so-called "Jiangge Headquarters" is a three-story flat building built against the mountain.
Qi Ji was a little stunned. Was this too trifling?
Qin Zijin watched Qi Ji's expression with interest and chuckled, "Why, is it very different from what you imagined?"
Qi Ji nodded: "I thought your Jiange was in the deep mountains and old forests, surrounded by fairy air, a large ancient building complex leaning against the cliffs. The contrast is quite big."
Qin Zijin pretended to be surprised: "You know what, our Jiange headquarters in the outer domain is pretty much the same as you imagined."
She continued with a smile, "As for this place, it is at most an office of our Jiange here. Usually, not many people come here, so there is no need to waste time and money to build a luxurious building."
Qi Ji nodded. This was indeed very reasonable. Then he asked, "So are we leaving now? Where are we going?"
Yu Chengen waved his hand: "No hurry, I said yesterday that there is another person, and he should be here soon."
The Sword Master spoke, and everyone naturally waited obediently.
After about ten minutes, the sound of helicopter propellers came from far away.
A moment later, the next helicopter landed, and a young man who looked to be around 20 years old got off from it.
He had dyed gray short hair, wore big sunglasses on his face, and carried his long weapon bag on his back. As soon as he got off the plane, he hurriedly ran towards Qi Ji and the others.
When he arrived in front of the few people, he adjusted from running to walking quickly, and arrived in front of Yu Chengen in just three or two steps.
What follows is a standard 90-degree bow!
At the same time, he shouted loudly with a strange accent: "Diao Pu Qiyu teacher! I ate it!"
Damn, such a pure Daizo flavor!
Listening to this familiar tone, Qi Ji couldn't help but instantly recalled the past when his parents would turn on the TV at eight o'clock every night and start watching various anti-Sakura TV dramas. The Sakura people in the dramas spoke the Daxia dialect with an accent exactly like that of this young man.
Why is the old Sword Master willing to take someone from the Sakura Country to the outside world?
Qi Ji and Qin Zijin looked at each other, but Bai Tianhe seemed to have known that it was this person and his face remained calm.
Yu Chengen nodded, turned around and introduced to Qi Ji and Qin Zijin: "This is Shangquan Yiren, the grandson of the Sakura Sword Master Shangquan Shintuna."
Kamiizumi Shintuna!?
Relevant information about this name immediately popped up in Qi Ji's mind.
One of the three most recognized sword masters in the world!
In the land of sakura where militarism prevails, Kamiizumi Shintuna is a staunch anti-war advocate and a representative figure of the "pro-Natsu faction".
Unexpectedly, the Sword Master of Sakura Country was willing to send his grandson to the outside world, and that the team would be led by the Sword Master of Great Xia.
It seems that the relationship between the two sword masters is quite friendly.
At this time, Shangquan Yiren took the initiative to step forward, bowed to Qi Ji and the other two, and said in the still very unstandard Daxia language: "Hello! I am Shangquan Yiren from the Xinyin School! From now on, please take care of me!"
"Hello, I'm Qi Ji." Qi Ji nodded slightly .
"Hello, I'm Qin Zijin." Qin Zijin smiled slightly, his voice flat.
"I'm Bai Tianhe." Bai Tianhe glanced at him and said in a cold voice.
As soon as Bai Tianhe finished speaking, Shangquan Yiren suddenly raised his head, stared at him with sparkling eyes, and confirmed: "Are you Bai Tianhe?"
"yes."
After receiving the reply, Shangquan Yiren immediately stood up straight and said loudly: "Bai Tianhe! Please fight with me!"
What the hell is this guy doing?
Qi Ji and Qin Zijin looked at each other.
Bai Tianhe frowned slightly and turned to look at Yu Chengen: "Master, what does he mean by this?"
“Hahaha!” Yu Chengen touched the back of his head and smiled awkwardly: “Maybe he’s just excited to see the prey and wants to compete with you.”
He would never admit that he had boasted about his disciple who possessed sword spirit just to show off to his foreign friends. Now, most likely, his old friend, the Sword Saint, had used the "other people's children" education method too much on his grandson, which made Quan Yiren hostile to Bai Tianhe.
Bai Tianhe nodded when he heard this, turned around and said to Shangquan Yiren: "I am not interested in dueling with you."
Shangquan Yiren's face immediately turned red, and he shouted: "As a swordsman, how can you easily refuse someone's duel request! Please reconsider and duel with me. The winner will be the champion of this defense match!"
Qi Ji touched his chin. This kid was quite interesting. It seemed that he already knew the competition rules of the martial arts competition in advance. Now he wanted to show his strength in front of the Sword Saint and compete for the position of champion.
Qi Ji was watching the fun, but he saw Bai Tianhe glance at him and immediately felt something was wrong.
"But I'm not the champion either." Sure enough, Bai Tianhe gave Qi Ji away the next second.
"The champion will be another strong man from the Sword Pavilion, and the vice champion will not be me, but this big brother Qi Ji!"
When Qi Ji heard this and saw Shangquan Yiren turning his gaze towards him, he wished he could get a knife to cut the Bai Tian River in half to see if it was white on the outside and black on the inside.
Shangquan Yiren didn't care about that. He immediately walked over quickly and bowed deeply to Qi Ji: "Qi Ji-san! Please fight me immediately. I want to compete for your position as vice champion!"
"Puchi!" Qin Zijin couldn't help but laugh out loud when he saw Qi Ji's change from watching the fun to looking confused.
Looking at Shangquan Yiren who was bowing and refusing to stand up, Qi Ji felt like a hundred thousand alpacas were running wildly through his heart.
Good guy, he ended up eating the melon on his head.
Qi Ji felt a little pain in his head. He looked at Yu Chengen who was watching the show, hoping that he could have some conscience and help solve the problem.
Old Master Yu spread his hands, indicating that he was powerless, and then he even added fuel to the fire: "Qi Ji, I think you can agree to him, just as a lesson to the kid."
"That's right, Qi Ji!" Qin Zijin also added fuel to the fire: "It's a good opportunity to let Xiao Yinghua see whether our Da Xia swordsmanship is more powerful or their new Yin Liu is more powerful!"
Bai Tianhe was more direct. He pointed to the helipad where the helicopter had just landed after refueling and said directly: "That helipad is wide and flat, very suitable for the duel between the two of you."
Neither of them is in a hurry, what else can Qi Ji say?
What’s more, the person on the other side is a Sakura man. Can Qi Ji admit defeat?
Obviously not!
So he nodded and said calmly: "I accept your challenge. Although my sword skills are average, they are good enough to play with you."
"Okay!" Hearing Qi Ji's agreement, Shangquan Yiren immediately stood up and looked at Qi Ji with a smile.
"Then let's put on the protective gear first..." Qi Ji was about to finish his words when he was interrupted by Yu Chengen.
"No need to wear protective gear. I'll be watching you two. Just go ahead and compete without worry. No one will get hurt." Yu Chengen said calmly.
Shangquan Yiren immediately bowed to Yu Chengen again: "Then thank you, Sword Saint Yu!"
A moment later, Qi Ji and Shangquan Yiren stood on the helicopter landing pad together.
Kamiizumi Yiren was the first to adopt the New Shadow Style stance.
"New Yinliu! Shangquan Yiren! Join us!"
Qi Ji also returned the greeting symbolically.
"No sect, no school, no attachments, no worries! Qi Ji! "
Under the shone of the midday sun and the blowing of the sea breeze, Qi Ji and Shangquan Yiren slowly confronted each other.
