Seeking the Tao in the Mortal World

Chapter 127: Not So Distant

“Change!”

In the spacious tomb, a thin, one-person-tall wooden stake suddenly appeared.

There were two eyes on the wooden stake, blinking.

There was a bulge underneath.

A mace stood upright in front of the wooden stake, leaning left and right. After a while, it said,, “There are too many flaws.”

“Change!”

The wooden stake turned into a mace, but the shape was still the same, thin and 1.8 meters tall.

There were still eyes on the mace, and they were blinking.

There was a particularly thick spike on the bottom.

“…” The little mace flew up into the air and knocked down the thick spike.

The big mace rolled and shouted, “Conceal!”

It returned to Qin Yi’s appearance, but the figure became blurry but not completely invisible. His silhouette could still be seen.

Qin Yi was very helpless, “Is it because I need more practice?”

Liu Su said helplessly, “Your cultivate is not good enough to support such subtle changes, and it is even more difficult to maintain. Let’s stop it here. It’s already good that you can have such results. Oh, by the way, if you can maintain this semi-invisible state until the spiritual force is exhausted, it will be beneficial in tempering spiritual force.”

“Okay, okay.” Qin Yi laughed, “Stick Stick, this is so fun. I wish I had learned it earlier.”

“Idiot.” Liu Susnappishly said, “If I had known you liked these, I would have lured you to learn this in the village.”

“Erm, maybe…” Qin Yi smiled, “It’s not too late anyway. This is the real spell that combines interest and practicality.”

“Although this is indeed very practical once you master it, at least for now, I don’t know where you can use it. Do you want to spy on Ming He in this semi-invisible state? Your brain will be blasted away.”

Qin Yi put his hands on his hips, “Such filthy thought never crosses my mind!”

Liu Su said in a cool tone, “Who knows?”

“Bah.” Qin Yi opened the secret passage and walked down, “I have to check if she is recovering from her injuries and whether she needs my medicine.”

The secret passage is not long and does not lead to the outside world, so the “Shadow Demon” Girl before sensed that Ming He could not run far.

In addition, this incident highlighted Han Men’s familiarity with me.

He knows that I’m South Li Kingdom’s State Preceptor and a reckless martial artist, but that is fine. Maybe he heard from the people of the South Li Kingdom. But he actually knows that I practice the fire spell. He said that I had a bright hall, but it was just an excuse. In fact, he had already understood my details through another way.

While Qin Yi was thinking about this, he walked out of the short secret passage.

The view in front suddenly became clear.

After the aura recovered, this cave house had a blessed land. The so-called cave house was no longer a dark place illuminated only by phosphorus fire, but a soft light of the aura.

In the midst of the immortal atmosphere, there was a pool on the edge of the mountain wall. The spring water was flowing gently from the wall, making a soothing trickling sound. There was a green stone beside the pool. Ming He stood quietly on the stone and looked down at the pool.

Her taoist scarf had been put on again, and her hair was no longer disheveled. The blood and dirt caused by the battle on the taoist robe had disappeared, restoring its elegant blue and white pattern. A long sword slanted across her back. She stood there quietly. The mist and water flowed over the hem of her robe. The robe was fluttering lightly. She was completely integrated into this immortal land.

That untouchable, distant, illusory fairy intent appeared in her body again.

She was still the Ming He high in the sky, unapproachable.

Qin Yi felt a little lost for a moment. Maybe their relationship would go back to when they stayed in the same courtyard.

The previous close contact was like a dream to him.

…

Ming He seemed to be deep in thought at this time. She who should have keen senses didn’t seem to notice Qin Yi standing at the entrance looking at her. She was still lost in thought.

What she was thinking about was Qin Yi.

Originally, I thought the reason for my unstable thoughts before was because I lost his spiritual force and was seriously injured. At the most vulnerable time, I was like a mortal and could not maintain the transcendent aloofness. As long as spiritual force recovers, everything will return to normal.

The touch when I lay on his back, the warmth when he held me, and… the helpless panic when he pressed against my body.

It still echoes in my heart every moment.

Ming He suddenly wanted to take a bath.

The cleansing spell that cleaned one’s body and clothes seemed to be unreliable. It couldn’t give a psychologically cleansed feeling.

Ming He would like to try if washing with water could clean away some things.

She took a deep breath and untied her clothes.

The taoist robe was gently opened, revealing the snow-white lining.

There was a slight “bang” sound. When Ming He turned her head, the long sword on her back was automatically unsheathed.

However, she saw a half-invisible figure at the entrance suddenly turned into Qin Yi who was staring at her dumbfounded.

Ming He’s face turned red. She quickly put back on the robe and said furiously, “Qin Yi, how dare you peep on me!”

“I’m wronged!” Qin Yi almost wanted to hit the wall, “You never need to take a shower, right? How did I know you wanted to take off…”

“Then why do you conceal your figure?”

“If I said that I was practicing this spell just now, and it automatically deactivated when my spiritual force is exhausted, would you believe it?”

Ming He put her slender hands on her chest and glared.

That look meant not believing in him.

“Damn.” It was really embarrassing to be regarded as a voyeur. Qin Yi said, “If I want to take off your clothes, I have already had the opportunity to take them off several times. Do I need to peep? You can obviously sense me coming, and you obviously doesn’t need to shower, but you still deliberately took off your clothes to seduce me…”

“Qin Yi!” Ming He furiously pursued him with the sword.

Qin Yi scurried away with his head in his arms.

Ming He ran a few steps, and the belt fell to the ground. She held her chest with one hand, but her hem became loose. Ming He was ashamed and angry. Finally, she couldn’t pursue him anymore. She threw the sword to the ground angrily, picked up the belt, and tied it up.

Qin Yi poked his head out of the passage and said cautiously, “Hey, you have a lining inside, so I didn’t see anything.”

Ming He said angrily, “What else do you want to see!”

Qin Yi said cautiously, “Tao friend is obsessed with appearance, bound by the barrier between man and woman, and has impure thoughts (from chapter 40)…”

Ming He picked up the sword and chased after him again, but Qin Yi turned around and ran away.

The mace hooked his feet at some point. Qin Yi never thought that Liu Su would suddenly trick him. He was caught off guard and bumped into the wall. He held his head in pain and burst into tears.

Ming He had already come beside him and glared at him for a long time with her sword raised. Of course, she wouldn’t stab him. They of them stared at each other for a long time. Seeing Qin Yi holding his head in a tragic look, Ming He suddenly wanted to laugh for some reason.

But she couldn’t laugh at this moment.

Qin Yi rubbed his head in distress, resisting the urge to stomp the mace ten thousand times, and muttered, “Actually, you’re pretty good when you’re angry.”

Ming He thought he was giving her an opportunity to step down, so she said with a straight face, “How is it good?”

Qin Yi said seriously, “Because… you are not so distant.”

TL: Will their relationship deepen even more?
