Chapter 147: Coming out of seclusion and gaining a lot

"Think about it for yourself, could it be that you casually complained to others about Xu Ying competing for business with you, and accidentally fell into Pang Hai's ears?"

Xu Ying suddenly thought of something.

"Pang Hai has always regarded himself as a disciple of the Pang family, relying on the power of the Pang family and Qi Feng to show off his power everywhere. He has been trying to curry favor with you for more than a day or two. Is it possible that he wants to use this to make a good deal with you and deliberately plot against me?

"

Pang Hai was silent as he recalled what happened before, then suddenly stammered and said, "...Maybe, it's really possible."

When Xu Ying heard this, she immediately put her hands on her hips angrily, and her eyes widened as if she was about to burst into flames.

"That day I was robbed of my business by you, so I came to Qifeng to complain to my uncle. At that time, Pang Hai happened to come to visit, so my uncle asked him to wait outside the door... Could it be that he was born at that time?

Do you have thoughts of harming others?"

Lin Qi said solemnly: "You should ask Pang Hai about this. But he is digging coal underground now, so he probably won't be able to tell you the truth."

The more Pang Deguang thought about it, the more he felt that Pang Hai might have done it to please him, and he looked at Xu Ying unconsciously with a guilty conscience.

"I really don't know about this..."

Xu Ying snorted coldly, "I didn't mean to hold on to you. It's just that I fell into someone's scheme for no reason. I really can't swallow this breath without finding out."

"By the way, if it weren't for you, why would you avoid me after returning to the sect? Isn't this an obvious guilty conscience?"

Pang Deguang opened his mouth to explain, but for a long time no words came out. He was not at all like the eloquent person he used to be when doing business.

Seeing that he seemed to have something to hide, Xu Ying waved her hand and said: "Okay, okay, if you don't want to tell me, forget it. Now that I understand this matter, I can sleep peacefully."

Lin Qi asked curiously from the side: "There are only twenty days until the sect competition. Everyone else is racing against time to practice. Junior Sister Xu still has time to sleep peacefully?"

She is truly curious.

As a result, she met Xu Ying's slightly resentful gaze.

"If this continues, I won't dare to see Senior Sister Lin anymore."

Lin Qi waved her hand, "Okay, I won't joke with you anymore. The competition is approaching, and I still need your help."

Xu Ying immediately breathed a sigh of relief and smiled brightly, "Sister Xiaoqi, you can say whatever you want, I will do my best to help you if I can!"

Pang Deguang also stepped forward, "Sister Lin, if you have anything to do, just give me your instructions."

He looked at Lin Qi's appearance and asked carefully: "But it has something to do with Dabi?"

Lin Qi smiled and nodded.

"I want to get a good place in the competition, and I want to get rid of you two to help me collect some information."

"Easy! I'm familiar with this!" Xu Ying patted her chest and agreed.

Pang Deguang had long wanted to make friends with Lin Qi, so he accepted the task without hesitation.

After that, Lin Qi went to Fu Peak, Dan Peak, and Formation Peak one after another...

After a day of shopping, she returned to Zongleifeng and began to retreat.

Luo Ci, who had been following her like a follower for the whole day, also felt a sense of crisis.

Everyone else was preparing for the sect competition twenty days later, but he was the only one with nothing to do... He was so flustered!

For those who are in retreat, twenty days go by in a blink of an eye.

When Lin Qi came out of seclusion, her impatience finally settled down, and her mood was as calm as water.

During the past twenty days, she had not been idle at all.

He successively contracted four cold wood lotus terraces and the middle-grade magic weapon Yurun, and his cultivation became much more solid.

When she contracted the Four-Way Cold Wood Lotus Platform, she received a gift of spiritual energy. She could have taken the opportunity to break through to the ninth level of Qi Refining, but Lin Qi did not rush and instead continued to stay at the eighth level of Qi Refining to lay the foundation.

She has been cultivating all the way up, and her breakthrough speed is so fast that she can't say "slow" against her will.

This makes her pay special attention to the basics.

All tall buildings depend on a solid foundation.

Although she is only at the eighth level of Qi training now, the amount of spiritual energy stored in her Dantian is no less than that of a monk at the ninth level of Qi training.

Back then, she caught two cubs of Mulei ice fish in the Wannian Ice Milk Pond and buried them in the soil.

Lin Qi took the time to go in and take a look.

The two fish moved from the water to the ground and had no survival problems. They adapted well and were interested in occupying territory with the giant green vine.

Lin Qi borrowed their wooden thunder and the like to temper her body several times. Although the effect was not as good as that of the Ten Thousand Years Ice Milk Pool, it was still pretty good.

She could clearly feel that her level of Black Water Swallowing Thunder Technique had reached another level.

There are also gains in swordsmanship.

Some time ago, she made her first move of Tai Chi fused with cold energy and sword intent. She had some insights by chance and directly entered the stage of perfection. Liang Yi also successfully entered the great achievement.

Just wait for True Lord Qingyun to return and learn the third move - Four Symbols.

Moreover, he can unsheath his sword with one sword and slash it three times with his sword energy, increasing his attack power several times.

Everything went smoothly in terms of cultivation, but I encountered some obstacles in practicing the Ice Phoenix Divine Art.

Her first move, Broken Phoenix Shadow, produced five phoenix shadows, which was considered to be the limit.

However, there was no response to the second move of the scroll, so Lin Qi could not continue to practice the next move and could only switch to practicing spells.

On the contrary, he has cultivated all the previous basic spells to the level of mastery, and several ice spells have reached the stage of perfection.

In this sect competition, she went all out and was determined to get a good ranking.

It will neither live up to the determined efforts put in for more than half a year, nor fall into the prestige of Leifeng.

As soon as she walked out of the gate, Lin Qi met Luo Ci who had changed his appearance.

Lin Qi stood still, looked him around from top to bottom, and finally came up with only one word: "Hao!"

Luo Ci and Senior Sister Yuan Xi were waiting for Lin Qi to come out of seclusion. Unexpectedly, he was praised in such a way. He was so angry that his teeth itched for a while, but because of Lin Qi's aura, he did not dare to offend.

Lin Qi glanced at him, nodded and said: "Not bad, not bad, at least I have broken through the seventh level of Qi refining."

Luo Ci instantly turned from anger to joy. Just as he was waiting for Lin Qi to praise him again, he saw Lin Qi jump directly into the arms of Senior Sister Yuan Xi.

"Sister, I haven't seen you for a long time, I miss you so much!"

His head was rubbing in Senior Sister Yuan Xi's arms, without any image.

Yuan Xi helplessly supported her, "Xiaoqi, you are really getting more and more naughty!"

With that said, he took out a yellow triangular talisman from his sleeve and put it on Lin Qi, and said softly: "Lower your head and I'll put it on for you."

Lin Qi bowed her head obediently. She held the talisman and asked curiously: "Senior sister, this talisman has no spiritual energy?"

It's not their common talisman.

Yuan Xi: "I went on a mission a few days ago and went to Tianfo Sect, and asked for a talisman for you two.

This talisman has been worshiped and contaminated with the Buddha's aura. If I hadn't been an old acquaintance with the Buddhist disciples of the Tianfo Sect, it would be difficult to find one."

Taoist talismans are enshrined by Buddhists?

Lin Qi took the talisman paper and looked at it, finding it quite interesting.

Although this talisman paper has no aura, it faintly exudes a touch of Buddha's light, and it feels warm when held in the palm of your hand.

Yuan Xi tied a knot for Lin Qi with flexible fingers and stuffed the talisman into her clothes for her.

"Yours is a lucky charm. I hope it can lend you good luck and achieve a good ranking in the competition."

"Xiao Ci's is a peace talisman. He is born with physical movement, so he doesn't need a spiritual talisman."
