Volume 3: The Secret of the Door Chapter 72: 'Visiting'!
In the secret courtyard of Tingqi Pavilion, Ji Qin did not sleep all night.
The antique lamp on the side is still on.
The sunlight shining on it makes the light extremely dim, and even makes the lamp feel "dark".
The successor of Tingqi Pavilion was completely unaware of this.
She just sat at the desk, holding a cup of tea that had long gone cold, with a frown on her face.
She knew that she must have been abandoned.
Although it is very unwilling, this should be the fact.
After successfully "escaping", she spread the news immediately, and at the same time, quietly waited for the next plan of the cabinet.
But no matter how long I waited, nothing came.
and……
The members of the 'Tiandao League' also fell into Goethe's hands.
At first, Ji Qin was still a little happy.
It was not just a feeling of gloating, but a sense of relief - being captured by Goethe was a huge blow to Ji Qin, but when the 'Tiandao League' was no match for Goethe, Ji Qin was greatly relieved.
All the people from the 'Tian Dao League' failed.
Her failure as a junior was naturally insignificant.
At that moment, she felt half relieved.
But as time passed, it was brought up again.
She was worried and afraid of something.
She prayed that this wouldn't happen.
But nothing will change according to one's wishes.
What should I do next?
Ji Qin was thinking.
With the help of the power of "Tingqi Pavilion", she can be said to have smooth sailing.
Now, I can’t borrow it.
Immediately, Ji Qin was a little overwhelmed.
However, we still need to be vigilant.
There was a slight sound of clothes tearing in the air.
"Who is it?"
Ji Qin let out a low shout and flicked her fingers a few times in her sleeves.
"I advise you not to waste your energy. All your people have been dealt with."
In a deep voice.
A figure appeared in the room.
He was wearing a bright red coat, had a slightly sinister face, and his hair was also red. As soon as he appeared in the room, the temperature of the entire room began to rise.
Ji Qin watched the scene warily.
"Suzaku?"
she asked tentatively.
“Hahaha, you actually know me, then you should also know why I came here, right?”
The visitor asked with a smile.
The laughter was loud, but there was no smile on his face.
Instead, it became more sinister.
It makes people feel chilling when they see it.
More importantly, the look in those droopy triangular eyes was filled with strong aggression.
Many men have similar looks when they see her.
Of course Ji Qin knew what that was.
Ji Qin's heart sank.
It's not because of the ill intentions of Suzaku of the Suzaku Gate in front of him.
But it is because of the significance that the other party's appearance here represents.
She was not abandoned.
Instead, it became a new 'chess piece'.
But this chess piece is not valuable.
The only value is "waste utilization".
Since it is waste recycling, after use...
Of course I threw it away.
Ji Qin sighed slightly.
At this time, the former heir of Tingqi Pavilion had completely calmed down. She sat there and looked at the Suzaku of Suzaku Gate in front of her, with a hint of pity hidden in her eyes.
Suzaku found this place .
Naturally, he was also abandoned by the 'Four Gates and Four Halls' where the other party was.
After all, that was revenge for the murder of one's son.
It's not so easy to persuade.
Since I can't persuade him.
Fortunately, I stopped persuading him.
The 'Four Gates and Four Halls'... no, it should be said that the style of the 'Sacred Heart Society' really amazed Ji Qin. You know, the 'Suzaku Gate' is not an insignificant force that can be given up just like that.
Big deal!
Ji Qin sighed in her heart.
But he answered with his mouth.
"Know.
You want to avenge your son.
So, you want to join forces with Tingqige. "
"good!"
Suzaku did not hide anything and nodded straightforwardly.
"Then can you tell me how you found me?"
Ji Qin asked curiously.
"Although you hid very well, you still couldn't hide from my eyes and ears."
When Suzaku said this, there was a hint of pride in his tone.
It can even be said that he is arrogant
It wasn't intentional.
It's just instinct.
In other words, a habit developed over a long period of time.
At this time, Ji Qin sighed again in her heart, and she completely gave up the last hope.
With a personality like Suzaku, even if his son had not died, he would definitely be pushed out as a scapegoat.
Can……
She doesn't want to die!
The other person's life or death has nothing to do with her, she just wants to live!
Live well!
"As expected of the 'Suzaku Gate'!
As expected of Lord Suzaku!"
Ji Qin praised softly, with a perfect smile on her face - this was what she learned in the 'Tingqi Pavilion', and it was also something ingrained in her bones.
If used at this time, there would be no trace at all.
Instead, it carries a sense of sincerity.
"Then Lord Suzaku, what do you want me to do?"
Ji Qin asked.
"alliance!
The Suzaku Gate and the Tingqi Pavilion formed an alliance, and then...
Kill Goethe! "
Suzaku said through gritted teeth.
Ji Qin sneered in her heart.
Putting aside whether Goethe can be killed, it is almost impossible for the Suzaku Gate to form an alliance with the Tingqi Pavilion.
You know, the entire 'Sacred Heart Society' and the 'Tingqi Pavilion' alliance are slightly inferior.
Now the 'Suzaku Gate' alone wants to do the same thing?
I'm really going crazy.
The two sides are not in the same league at all.
However, the other party took it as a matter of course.
Ji Qin didn't show any expression, she just nodded.
"Okay, but..."
"But what?"
Suzaku asked without any doubt.
“Sincerity is needed!
We need the sincerity of 'Suzakumen'.
The sincerity of Lord Suzaku is also needed."
Ji Qin said softly.
"snort!"
Immediately, Zhuque snorted coldly, and the temperature in the room rose again at an exaggerated rate. Ji Qin could even smell the burnt smell of her hair.
But this did not change Ji Qin.
Or rather...
Ji Qin, who was sitting there, wished Zhuque would do this.
Because she wanted to delay time.
Delay the arrival of the breaker.
"Lord Suzaku is demonstrating sincerity, not strength."
Ji Qin emphasized.
Suzaku narrowed his eyes and stared at Jiqin.
After four or five seconds, Suzaku snorted again, and the temperature in the room returned to normal.
"What sincerity?"
Suzaku asked.
"The 'Heavenly Book' or the murder weapon stained with the blood of the descendants of the 'Martial Saint'."
When Ji Qin said the first half of the sentence, Zhuque almost got angry.
He would never use something like the 'Book of Heaven' as a bargaining chip.
However, when he heard the second half of the sentence, he nodded.
"Can."
Compared to the "Book of Heaven", the murder weapon stained with the blood of the descendants of the "Martial Saint" is precious, but not uncommon. At least he has collected a few of them.
"I want 100 pieces."
Ji Qin added.
Suzaku was stunned.
"Are you kidding me?"
Zhuque stared at Jiqin fiercely, and Jiqin shook her head.
“That’s the rule.”
"rule?"
"My rules are the rules!"
Zhuque said this in a vicious tone, then raised his hand and grabbed Ji Qin.
The burning breath filled the room again.
Ji Qin, who was sitting there, didn't move at all.
Because there is no need.
Suzaku's palm was grabbed by a hand.
Yes, Goethe.
Goethe, who appeared in the room at some point, grabbed Suzaku's wrist.
"Is it you?"
Suzaku was stunned.
It is obvious that the leader of the "Suzaku Gate" knew Goethe.
Or maybe you have seen Goethe's photos or portraits.
Then, the leader of the Suzaku Gate rolled his eyes, glared at Goethe and Jiqin, and shouted: "You two adulterers, you actually set a trap for you..."
No foul language was uttered afterwards.
Because Goethe's palm, which was holding the other person's wrist, exerted a little force.
Click!
Suzaku's wrist was broken.
The leader of the Suzaku Sect, who was about to say something hurtful just now, groaned and tightly closed his mouth.
At the same time, flames surged in the palm of his hand.
The flames were like a tide, and the heat turned into air waves.
Instantly, Goethe was engulfed.
"Burn me to ashes!"
Suzaku grinned.
But immediately, the hideous smile froze on his face.
Goethe in the flames was fine.
Not only is everything fine, but I feel even more energetic.
Flame is useless?
Zhuque looked around and found that the tables, floors and other things affected by the flames had been reduced to ashes.
Apparently fire is useful.
But it didn't work for Goethe.
Thinking of this, Suzaku was horrified.
His greatest asset is this flame. Now that the flame is useless, he is basically like a phoenix that has fallen to the ground, no better than a chicken.
Without any hesitation, Suzaku twisted his wrist, ready to cut off his arm and escape.
But the next moment——
Bang!
"Ah, coo, coo, oooooo!"
With an extremely shrill scream, Suzaku collapsed to the ground, holding his lower abdomen.
Zhuque, who had just had his wrist crushed without making a sound, now screamed like a naughty child being beaten up by his parents. Ji Qin, who was standing by, couldn't stand it anymore and went over to kick him.
She is seeking revenge.
The look from Suzaku just now really made people feel extremely disgusted.
Now, of course, we need to take revenge when there is revenge, and we need to take grudges when there is grudge.
Of course, this is also a "pledge of allegiance".
Prove that you are not in the same group as the other party.
After being completely abandoned, Ji Qin began to think about her own way out.
After much thought, Ji Qin found that she only had one way out: Goethe.
At the moment, she had no choice but Goethe.
No one can protect her.
So, she had to prove it.
Of course, this kick was also very measured.
It was just a hit, but not fatal.
But this was enough to make Zhuque faint, but he woke up immediately - because Ji Qin was stepping on it, tiptoeing, and even the red pants could not cover up the blood color at this time.
Goethe took a look and made a rough estimate.
The Suzaku has no more "sparrow".
Zhu also became 'lost'.
"Bitch!"
Suzaku woke up and cursed loudly.
What Goethe could see, Suzaku himself could feel even more.
Because of this, Suzaku's eyes were almost spitting fire.
Ji Qin was smiling.
“Scold it.
Curse more while you are still alive.
If I die, I won’t be able to hear it.”
Ji Qin continued to twirl on her toes as she spoke.
"Want to kill me? Come on!"
Suzaku screamed and cursed.
"idiot!"
"You still don't understand the truth even now - don't you find that my place is too easy to find? The guards are too weak? Do I look too easy to bully?"
"So much so that a certain idiot came directly to the door!"
As Ji Qin spoke, she raised her foot, slowly retreated to Goethe's side, and knelt down.
“Sir, Ji Qin is willing to follow you!
"I will go through fire and water, and I will not refuse even if it means death!"
Having said that, Ji Qin bowed deeply.
Flat, it’s really flat.
You can see the flatness of the foot at a glance.
It’s really upturned.
Kneeling there, covering the soles of her feet.
“Good shock absorber!”
After Goethe gave a fair evaluation, he shifted his gaze slightly and looked at Suzaku who was standing beside him. The proud and arrogant Suzaku finally reacted at this time.
He was used as a gun.
"Ah! Azure Dragon! White Tiger! Black Tortoise!"
"You bastards!"
As he yelled, Suzaku's eyes widened and he died.
The acting was very realistic.
Even the heartbeat stopped.
The blood no longer flows.
It looked as if he was really dead.
Unfortunately, Suzaku met Goethe.
Goethe habitually 'cleans the battlefield'.
After touching the corpse, Goethe raised his hand and threw down a ball of flame.
The fist-sized fireball had not yet landed on Suzaku, but the dead Suzaku just bounced up from the ground and rushed out like an arrow.
Bang!
The sturdy door shattered into pieces.
The fiery red figure of Suzaku rushed outwards following the wood chips.
Then--
call!
The flames hit his head and face.
Zhuque, who was unable to dodge, was directly enveloped by it.
Without even a grunt, Suzaku was burned to a charred corpse.
The body fell to the ground.
A foot stepped straight on it.
He was a middle-aged man, who, like Suzaku, was dressed in fiery red clothes and had the same fiery red hair.
Crunch, crunch.
The charred corpse was crushed.
"waste."
The middle-aged man commented with indifference and disdain.
Then, he looked up at Goethe, gave a gentle and polite smile, and bowed.
"New Suzaku greets you, Your Excellency."
If it weren't for the charred corpse under his feet, this new Suzaku would look like a good guy next door, but the broken charred corpse under his feet made people feel that this was a pervert.
And just as the new Suzaku finished speaking, three more voices rang out:
"Qinglong!"
"White Tiger!"
“Xuanwu!”
"Greetings, Your Excellency!"
A voice came from each of the three directions: east, west and north.
Standing in the attic, Goethe looked at the three men dressed in blue, white and black.
He was wearing green clothes, had a slender figure and a thin face.
He was wearing white clothes, had a stocky build and a rough face.
He was wearing black clothes, had a hunched back and an old face.
Plus the Vermillion Bird at the South Gate.
Almost one person guards one gate.
At the same time, an inexplicable aura began to connect the four people one by one.
Very fast.
The connection was completed almost at the moment Goethe discovered it.
Then, a voice appeared in Goethe's ears——
"Don't be afraid, kid. I am your ancestor, the Martial Saint Zhao Jingjue!"
