Chapter 464: Uncovering the Identity

This time, Xia Ji did not leave alone. She stopped not far away, as if she knew Qin Yi would catch up. ♦♦  ♦♦

Qin Yi slowed down his pace, smiled, and looked at the beautiful figure sitting on the eaves in front of him, like a holy lotus in the wind.

"I didn't expect that such a dangerous place like the God-forsaken Land could raise such a noble and unworldly woman. The magic of nature really cannot be discussed by region."

Qin Yi admired her in his heart, whether as an enemy, as a temporary ally, or as a friend.

Qin Yi kept an appreciation for Xia Ji.

"You are here." Xia Ji's clothes fluttered slightly in the wind, and her bare feet, as white as jade, lightly touched the ground.

Qin Yi smiled bitterly and said, "Aren't you leaving yet?"

Xia Ji curled her lips slightly: "I'm waiting for you to solve my doubts."

"What doubts?" Qin Yi laughed.

"After we parted at the Forsaken Land of the Gods, you were only at the Mortal Realm; in two years, your cultivation seems to have been close to the high level of the Dao Foundation Realm?" Xia Ji's voice was faint, but Qin Yi could still hear that she seemed to be intentionally suppressing some personal emotions.

Qin Yi laughed dumbly: "Did you recognize me?"

"Since my debut, I have never lost. Except for the time in the Dark Palace. I must know who I lost to, right?"

Xia Ji gave this reason, which was reasonable.

Qin Yi was a little sad when he heard her bring up the old things again: "I never thought that the day when you and I would become enemies again would come so soon."

Enemy again?

Xia Ji was startled, then her eyes turned cold: "So, you want to fight me here?"

Qin Yi shook his head somewhat disappointedly: "Unless my brain is stuck in the door. Otherwise, fighting you here will only benefit those bastards. I don't care what you think, but I have no hostility towards you in this Lost Castle!"

Xia Ji was silent. She naturally saw that Qin Yi had warned her and rescued her more than once.

Even Mo Chi and the others had already determined that she and Qin Yi had formed an alliance.

With a sigh, Xia Ji nodded, her eyes showing sincerity: "I swear, I will never be your enemy in the Lost Castle."

Hearing this, Qin Yi's melancholy was slightly reduced, and he said seriously: "Those four guys are crazy and have already killed you. If you are kind to them, I'm afraid..."

"I grew up in the God-forsaken Land, and I can still tell who is the enemy and who is the friend. They want to take my life, how can I let them go easily?"

Xia Ji did not make any bold statements, but her attitude was very clear.

However, she immediately glanced at Qin Yi and said calmly: "Compared to me, they are probably more interested in killing you."

Qin Yi laughed: "There are more people who want to kill me than just the four of them. The people of Shura Sect have specially issued a bounty order for me. Am I not living well?"

After a pause, Qin Yi looked at Xia Ji sincerely: "Speaking of this, I have to thank Miss Xia Ji for sending a letter of warning."

Xia Ji was stunned and instinctively wanted to deny it.

But after thinking about it, she nodded slightly: "You don't have to take it to heart. I just don't want to owe anyone a favor. At the beginning of the Anran Palace, you could have monopolized the Fengqi Wood Spirit Fruit."

The implication is that you gave me three Fengqi Wood Spirit Fruits, so I must remember your favor.

The Fengqi Wood Spirit Fruit helped Xia Ji a lot in building her foundation, which is why her cultivation was able to advance by leaps and bounds, even surpassing the geniuses of the same generation such as Ji Gengxie.

Originally, Xia Ji and Ji Gengxie were equally gifted.

However, the Fengqi Wood Spirit Fruit, a gift from good fortune, made her foundation more superior and stronger. After long-term cultivation, her advantages naturally emerged.

Because of this, Xia Ji was even more impressed by Qin Yi's demeanor of giving her three Fengqi Wood Spirit Fruits.

If it were any genius in the Forsaken Land of Gods, whether it was Mo Chi, Ji Gengxie, or even the legendary Ye Longchi.

In that case, they would definitely take all the benefits for themselves, and it would be impossible for Xia Ji to get them.

What's more, at that time, Xia Ji and Qin Yi were still nominally hostile.

While talking, Qin Yi suddenly moved his consciousness and smiled bitterly: "These guys are lingering and chasing us again. Let's go."

Xia Ji heard this, and a hint of complexity flashed across her clear eyes.

Girls' minds are naturally more subtle than men's. She heard Qin Yi say "Let's go", which meant that Qin Yi instinctively regarded her as an ally.

Without any hesitation, Xia Ji stamped her feet lightly and followed Qin Yi to gallop away.

Whether it was Xia Ji or Qin Yi, they both had the advantage in speed.

Xia Ji seemed to want to compete with Qin Yi in speed, so she ran all the way. Qin Yi, on the other hand, had a good grasp of the rhythm.

When Xia Ji was fast, he was fast. When Xia Ji slowed down, he also slowed down.

Even if Xia Ji was at her fastest speed, Qin Yi could still follow and not be thrown away.

At first, Qin Yi did not notice Xia Ji's intention. But then he seemed to realize that Xia Ji seemed to be competing with him in speed, so he simply pretended to be stupid.

As a result, there were more sweat drops on his forehead, which had no sweat drops originally. His breathing, which was originally even, became slightly hurried.

"Miss Xia Ji, wait for me."

Xia Ji could not help but feel angry and amused, and glared at him with a slanted look: "Don't pretend, do you think I am a fool, can't you see it?"

Qin Yi was stunned, scratched his head with a bitter smile: "Those guys are not as fast as us. We have been left behind."

Xia Ji was not very optimistic: "Even if they are temporarily left behind, they can still catch up with us. The vengeful spirits of the Ghost Demon Mansion, the talismans of the Yin Fu Sect, and the evil spirits of the Spirit Valley are all good trackers. Unless we leave the Lost Castle, it will not be so easy to completely leave them behind..."

It can be seen that Xia Ji's evaluation of those guys is still very high.

Qin Yi sneered lightly, somewhat disapproving.

Xia Ji frowned: "You don't believe it?"

"I believe it, I never underestimate my opponents. But..."

"But what?" Xia Ji said lightly, "But do you think the genius of the God-forsaken Land is not worthy of your Qin?"

This girl's competitive nature has come out again.

"You misunderstood." Qin Yi said patiently, "But they are in a hurry to hunt us down, but they may have overlooked the potential crisis of the Lost Castle. If I tell you that I have many ways to deal with them, do you believe it?"

There is a way to deal with them? Or many ways?

Xia Ji's first reaction was really disbelief. Xia Ji knew how terrible the four people were when they joined forces. I'm afraid that Ye Longchi of the Shura Sect would not dare to say that he could steadily deal with the four of Mo Chi and the others when they joined forces.
