Chapter 1532: Iâll give you a chance
The sect master knew of aunt Qingâs past-she knew that sheâd suffered some setbacks in her love life when she was young, and so she valued men who valued relationships! âAunt Qing,â the sect master said helplessly,âare you sure he wants the fruit to treat his girlfriend? From what I know, the fire Spiritâs fruit isnât a herb, is it?â
The sect masterâs heart was starting to relax-the fruit was precious, but since aunt Qing had said so, she couldnât just reject her too much. Sheâd raised her up after all, and while they werenât mother and daughter, they were closer than mother and daughter!
The sect master knew that aunt Qing was only discussing this with her out of respect for her-with her position in the Council, even if she just gave the fruit away, the Grand Elder would only be unhappy, but wouldnât dare stop her.
And since aunt Qing had done this, how could the sect master not care about her face?
However, she didnât know Ling Yi-she naturally didnât trust a stranger! Plus, Ling oneâs strength was just too weak in her eyes, too insignificant-he was only a little stronger than a mortal, and so the sect masterâs promise to him was just a joke!
A rogue cultivator could find an Alchemist? When did alchemy become such a worthless profession? If he was from an ancient sect, it would be believable that he could find a pill master!
âIâm not sure about that, but it seems to be the case. He carried his girlfriend the whole time during the trial. This is enough to make me believe that what he said is true!â Qing said.
âSince heâs loyal, then tell him to stand at the door. If he can stand there for half a month without eating, drinking, or sleeping, then Iâll believe him!â âIf not, then ask him to leave!â The sect master said.
âHalf a month âŠâ Qing Zhu smiled bitterly.âPalace Master, itâs fine if a Mystic doesnât eat or sleep for three days, but half a month, isnât that a bit too much? Although the spiritual Qi in our mountain is rich, even if he keeps on cultivating, the Qi He gets wonât be enough for his body to consume every day âŠâ
âAunt Qing, Iâm just testing him-what if some random guy comes and says heâs going to save his girlfriend? if youâre kind enough, our entire Ice Palace wonât have enough to give him!â For once, the sect master joked in front of Qing.âWhen he canât hold on any longer and faints, you can go and wake him up!â
âŠ
âThis ⊠Is good!â Qing Zhu hesitated for a moment before nodding.
Seeing elder Qingâs figure, Lin Yi finally relaxed-it seemed that the Ice Palace couldnât just ignore her!
âLing Yi, why arenât you leaving?â Little Qingâs figure floated over, and when she saw Ling Yi, she asked indifferently.
âElder Qing has not agreed to my request, so I can only wait here! The fruit means a lot to my girlfriend, I donât want to lose this chance. â Lin Yi said respectfully.
âAlright, since youâre treating this as an opportunity, Iâll fulfill your wish!â Qing nodded and said in a serious tone.
âSenior, please speak!â Lin Yi thought that elder Qing would just leave after a few words like before, but she did! And so, while Lin Yi was overjoyed, he changed the way he addressed elder Qing to senior!
Of course, whether it was strength or age, Lin Yi didnât mind calling her senior!
âYou said that you want the fruit to cure your girlfriend, and that youâll pay any price for it, is that right?â Little Qing asked.
âYes, senior!â Lin Yi said without hesitation.
âAlright, then you can just stand here. Iâll come back in fifteen days-if youâre still here, itâll be enough to show your sincerity. Iâll give you a chance to convince the sect master!â Qing didnât want to show anything in front of Lin Yi, so she just used cold and formal words.
âSure!â Lin Yi nodded.
âRemember, you have to stand here. You canât rest!â âIf you canât do it, you can leave the mountain!â Qing said.
âI can do it!â Lin Yi said.
Qing Zhu nodded and left without saying anything.
Lin Yiâs heart was filled with excitement and joy. He knew that this was elder Qingâs hard work. She didnât say it, but Lin Yi could feel it! They could only keep their gratitude for elder Qing in their hearts and have a tacit understanding with each other.
However, they had to stand here for half a month, and they werenât allowed to rest or leave. Lin Yi didnât know whether to laugh or cry at this request! If the person standing here wasnât Lin Yi but some other Mystic class master, theyâd probably be dead in half a month, right?
Although elder Qing did not say that they were not allowed to eat and drink, since they were not allowed to leave, where else could they eat and drink? Who would carry a large amount of food with them for no reason? Every cultivator knew that the period of the trial was three days, so they only brought some elixirs to replenish their energy. However, they couldnât bring too many. Half a month was definitely not enough!
Fortunately, Lin Yi had the Jade space and could go in to replenish his energy at any time. Not to mention half a month, even half a year wouldnât be a problem!
Qing returned to the sect masterâs room and replied,ââPalace Master, he has agreed!â
âAlright, then letâs wait for him to back off.â The sect master nodded, returning to her usual calm self-there were other people in the room, and so she had to act like a sect master!
âŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠâŠ
Lingshan brought Liu Wangli, Wang hekan, and the others to Jiwu town to see the two victims, as well as the statement that the local police had made.
From these things alone, it could be basically confirmed that the suspect was the same person as the previous cases. However, there was still no detailed conclusion on the appearance and characteristics of the suspect. This time, the suspect was also masked!
Song Lingshan asked the father and son who were selling roasted sweet potatoes, but she didnât get any useful information.
âWhat did the other witnesses say?â Lingshan couldnât find anything useful from the two victims, so she turned her attention to the witnesses.
âThe other witnesses âaccounts are almost the same as the father and sonâ s, but a townsfolk said that after the suspect escaped, he seemed to have gotten into an SUV!â Zhao Yu said. One of the local officers in charge of the case introduced Lingshan to him,âOf course, it wasnât the witnesses who saw this scene, but an old farmer who was a few hundred meters away from the scene! According to the old farmer, he saw a masked man running over in a hurry, then he got into an SUV by the side of the road and drove quickly in the direction of the highway!â (To be continued.)
