Qingyi remained silent, yet she was not morally coerced in the slightest.
His aged face darkened slightly. "He was just doing his duty, what did he do wrong! But you, relying on your knowledge of some mystical arts, are acting recklessly, which is really against the duty of a cultivator! If you continue like this, I will have to report to Uncle Cangxuan."
He could understand that Qingyu and Qinghui had been praised too highly by the Xuanmen, making them arrogant and unruly, and they had never been provoked like this before.
Therefore, when arrogance takes hold, it is inevitable that one will act excessively.
This is also the main reason why Qingyi chose to bring them down the mountain this time.
He felt that it was time for these pampered geniuses, who had been kept in seclusion, to receive a harsh lesson from reality!
So he stopped flattering them like before and spoke with unusual harshness.
Qinghui was rebuked, and his face turned ugly, but he didn't retaliate.
Even if Qingyi's profound techniques are inferior to theirs, he still holds the position of senior brother, so they must respect him!
This is a rule of our sect!
Qingyi glanced at the two men who dared not speak out, nodded in satisfaction, and turned around to say a few more nice words to the security guard when he suddenly sensed a fluctuation of spiritual energy in the air.
Qingyu and Qinghui noticed it earlier than he did, and thinking that someone was secretly causing trouble, they took immediate action.
A soft, childlike voice burst through the air.
"Oh dear..."
I almost blurted out the internationally standardized term, but luckily I managed to hold back.
"Who is it? Don't you have any sense of sportsmanship? How dare you launch a sneak attack!"
Hearing that familiar, sweet voice, Qingyi was dumbfounded.
His eyes looked left and right, and finally, following the fluctuations of spiritual energy, he spotted the paper figure clinging to his lower back, dodging the attacks of Qingyu and Qinghui's two talismans.
Qingyi's eyes widened instantly, almost popping out of their sockets!
"Little...little master?"
The paper doll's two tiny black eyes blinked, and after meeting his gaze, it stretched out its arm and floated down to the ground from his lower back.
"It's me. What are you doing here?"
Qingyi stared intently at the paper figure, swallowing hard. "Little Master, what are you doing...?"
The paper doll looked down at its thin, paper-like body, then glanced at Qingyi's utterly shocked expression, blinked, and continued to utter Qiqi's soft, childlike voice.
"It's just a simple paper-crafting technique and spirit possession, can't you do that?"
Qingyi: ...
What do you mean it's just a simple paper craft?!
Does she even know that paper crafting is a nearly lost art?!
besides!
The art of spirit possession has been lost for nearly three hundred years because it was too difficult and required constant rest.
But now, a three-and-a-half-year-old toddler actually knows both of these lost divine arts and has combined them into one!
This is simply a spectacle that has shocked the entire world of esoteric arts!
Just as Qingyi was about to ask where she learned these two spells, a discordant, sarcastic voice suddenly rang out from the side.
"How arrogant!"
Qingyi: ...
He turned to look at Qingyu, who was truly boastful, with an expression that said, "Do you even know what nonsense you're spouting?"
Qingyu didn't look at him, but instead focused his gaze on Paper Qiqi. "I don't know where he learned some tricks to pretend to be a god, but he actually dares to impersonate a long-lost divine art. What an arrogant and ignorant brat!"
Qiqi was very unhappy about having her abilities questioned.
The little paper doll put its short arms on its hips and glared at Qingyi, saying, "Did you bring these two big guys? What, is refusing to take you as a disciple some kind of heavenly crime? You actually brought a group of helpers to attack me!"
"No, no, little master, you've misunderstood!" Qingyi quickly explained why he had come, and then said, "These two junior brothers of mine are coming down the mountain for the first time, so they are bound to be reckless. Please don't take offense, little master!"
"Oh, so you're just a country bumpkin coming down from the mountain for the first time. It's alright then!" Paper Qiqi waved her hand generously. "A country bumpkin like you is bound to be ignorant!"
Qinghui retorted angrily, "Who are you calling a country bumpkin!"
"I'm talking to you!" Paper Qiqi wasn't afraid of him at all. She stared straight at him with eyes created from her spiritual power, and said "Oh," "Just a little Taoist priest at the second level of Qi Refining. Calling you a country bumpkin is an insult to the word 'country bumpkin.' After all, in our area, even those at the Qi Refining stage aren't qualified to enter the mountain gate!"
Unexpectedly, a tiny paper doll could see through his cultivation level at a glance.
The Taoist priest named Qinghui was taken aback, and Qingyu's expression also changed slightly, while Qingyi had an expression that said he knew it all along.
"In front of our little master, my two junior brothers' cultivation is indeed not enough."
He offered a sincere compliment before asking, "But little master, weren't you kidnapped? Why did you suddenly use paper effigies and have your spirit possess your body again? Was it to send a message to President Ji and Madam Ji to put their minds at ease?"
Paper Qiqi gave Qingyi a deep look. Although the old Taoist priest's cultivation was not very high, he was quite clever and guessed it right away.
"Mmm." Paper Qiqi nodded. "My parents must be worried sick about my sudden disappearance. I was afraid they would do something rash and ruin my plans, so I came back to tell them."
She paused, looked at him, and said, "But since you're here, you can do me a favor!"
"Young master, just tell me what you need my help with!"
Just as Paper Qiqi was about to speak, she saw a black Bentley speeding out of the villa area.
The driver seemed to have experienced something catastrophic; the car practically flew close to the ground, its speed startling the security guard at the post, who frantically tried to open the electric fence.
The car didn't even pause for a second before speeding past Qiqi and the others.
The strong wind suddenly blew Qiqi's paper body away, startling Qingyi, who quickly reached out and scooped her up, holding her tightly in his hands.
"Little Master, are you alright?" Qingyi opened her hands, her palms in a protective gesture, afraid that Qiqi would be hurt again.
Paper Qiqi shook her head, which was spinning from the sudden turn of events. After recovering, she stared at the direction the car had disappeared in and murmured, "Who was sitting in that car? How could they have such a strong demonic aura?"
Are they visitors to the villa area?
Or is it a resident of this house?
If they were residents of this area, with such a strong demonic aura emanating from them, there would be no way they could escape her detection.
If it's a visitor who comes unexpectedly...
"Old Taoist priest, did you see the license plate of that car clearly just now?"
Qing was taken aback. He had been so focused on saving Qiqi's paper-thin body that he hadn't noticed.
Qinghui, who was standing next to him with a gloomy face, spoke up, "I saw it."
"Do you have a cell phone?" Qiqi asked Qingyi.
Seeing him nod, he immediately said, "Call the police right now and have them track down the owner of this car's license plate!"
